BRIGHTON, AUG. 28.

The Eclipse, Captain CorEsItAN, sailed from this
place on Saturday night in a complete hurricane, with
about thirty passengers, amongst whom was the young
Prince TRILISOUTSICOY, who is erroneously stated in the
London papers to have been charged with despatches of
importance for the French Government. The Prince has
no diplomatic character. Count FLAHAOT arrived here
from Londo❑ on Saturday evening, on his return to Paris,
but he does not sail until to-morrow. During his stay
here he has had important communications from the French
Ambassador and Lord PALMERSTON. It is generally un-
derstood that his mission related principally to Belgium,
but that one object of it was to impress upon the minds of
his Majesty's Ministers the importance of a more cordial
union with the French Government against the Holy Al-
liance, the late affair of the Diet at Frankfort having
convinced Lours PHILIP and his Cabinet of the real de-
signs of the Absolutists of the Continent.
Brighton is very dull for the season ; indeed, it was
hardly ever so much so before. PAUANINI is here, and has
given a concert, but the people do not run after him as
they used to do.

Lord NUGENT transacted business this morn-
ing at the Treasury.
Despatches were received this morning at the
Foreign-office, from our Ambassador at Paris.
VISIT OF THEIR ROYAL HIGHNESSES
THE DUCHESS OF KENT AND THE PRINCESS VICTORIA
TO LLANBERIS.—EarIy in the morning of Saturday last,
it was known in Carnarvon that their Royal Highnesses
would pass through the town, on their visit to the roman-
tic lake and piss of Llanberis. Accordingly, the fires
lighted the previous evening on Twhill and on the Elidir
mountain, in honour of the Duchess's birth-day, were
scarcely extinct when Carnarvon was all in a bustle of pre-
paration to display yet other proofs of esteem and attach-
ment to the Royal visiters. The day was such as the
morning promised, clear and refreshing. The Uxbridge
Arms Hotel was tastefully decorated with evergreens and
flags. A little after twelve o'clock the Royal carriaqes
arrived in front of the hotel. It was soon perceived that
the Princess VICTORIA was not present, and a feeling of
anxiety pervaded the people to learn the cause. It was
soon understood that her Royal Highness was indisposed, on
account of the fatigues of the preceding day. The Duchess,
after changing horses, proceeded in the direction of
Llanberis. The road to Llanberis iv, independently of
the mountain scenery, pleasing and picturesque. It pur-
sues its course chiefly along an elevated ridge, at the foot
of which tLe Seiont winds over its rugged bed, guiding
the eye to its origin in the lake of Llanberis. The caval-
cade stopped at i temporary pier erected for the embarka-
tion of the Royal party, near the northern extremity of
the lake, a few hundred yards from the ruins of the hall of
LLEWELYN, where tradition informs us King EDWARD I.
embarked to attrck the Welsh when they made their last
stand. Here her Royal Highness and suite entered the
boat of T. A. SMITH, Esq. provided for their reception,
at the stern of which floated the royal standard of Britain,
for the first time on this lake since the days of EDWARD.
The scene at the entrance of the lakes is very striking.
The mountains at the extremity of the pass, about seven
miles in the distance, approach each other, forming a
narrow and bold defile, and seem to close up the view in
dark and rugged majesty. On either side of the lake the
mountains rise abruptly to an immense altitude ; and the
lake, reflecting their rocky sides, has always a particu-
larly dark appearance. As the boat proceeded slowly
along, the Royal visitor was greeted by salutes from above
2,000 rock cannon. The Royal party landed at the ruins
of Dolbadarn, one of the ancient British castles which
guarded the pass. After partaking of refreshments, the
Royal party proceeded to visit the ancient castle, and Mr.
Sairria's beautifully situated cottage on the lake. They
then set out on their return by land, receiving as they
went a thundering farewell from the mountai❑ cannons,
which the llanyciau Eryri, (lads of Snowdon,) had re-
loaded.

MALNIESBURY REFORM FESTIVAL.—The
consummation of the great measure of Parliamentary Re-
form has in no place been celebrated with more real sa-
tisfaction and pleasure than in the ancient and well-known
borough of Malmesbury. A liberal subscription having
been entered into for the purpose, upwards of 1,500 per-
sons were, on Wednesday last, regaled with true English
fare—roast beef, plum pudding, and strong beer. The
tables were laid in a meadow, at the entrance into the
town, and, when filled, presented a most agreeable scene.
Nothing but harmony prevailed—no disputes were heard—
❑o drunkenness was seen ; a striking contrast to the de-
bauchery and wickedness that prevailed under the exploded
system. Such is the change already produced by the
great measure of Reform. Bands of music, and men with
flags, bearing patriotic inscriptions, perambulated the town
during the day ; and in the evening there was a brilliant
display of fire-works.

'Tile long talked-of steps for expediting the
arrival of the London mail are now about to be taken. On
or before the 6th of next month it will reach Greenock
about 4 in the afternoon, and return at 9 in the morning.
The Liverpool mail will arrive and depart at the present
hours.— Greenock Advertiser.

The Bank of France has just issued new notes
of 1,000 francs. The size, the form, the arrangement,
the vignette border, the stamp, and the water-marks, are
preci'ely the same as the old ❑otes ; but, from some pe-
culiar preparation of the paper and the ink, the impres-
sio❑ appears through the note with the same distinctness as
on the face, though the letters and figures are reversed.—
O❑ holding the hack of the note to a looking-glass, it pre-
sents a per feet far si'nile of the impression, except that the
signature of the cashier, or registering clerk, does not ap-
pear.

SURREY AND SUSSEX TURNPIKE. ROADS.
—The Commissioners of the above roads met on the 12th
day of July last, at the Sessions-house, Horsemonger-lane,

for which sum they are let for the present year, wp to the

every year, to expire on the last day of September, when
they were knocked down to Mr. LEWIS LEVY, at the sum
of 23,1301. per year. The bidders on the occasion were,
Messrs. T. SIMTSON, A. BOTTLE, G. MORTON, and W .
MEssENcEn. The following are the gates on the above

COURT MARTIAL IN THE TOWER.—A
few days since a regimental Court-martial was beld in
the officers' mess-room in the Tower of London, when
THOMAS FLORENTINE, a private of the Ist regiment of
Coldstream Guards, stationed in that fortress, was put on
his trial, charged with being found asleep on his post,
in the Bank of England, while on duty three weeks
ago, about the hour of midnight. The prisoner was
found guilty ; and it appearing that he had committed a
similar offence four years since, the Court sentenced him
to four months' imprisonment and hard labour in Brixton
gaol. The finding and sentence of the Court-martial
having been since confirmed by a higher authority, the
minutes were read over to the battalion last Saturday, and
yesterday the prisoner was removed to Brixton, in custody
of a corporal's guard, to undergo his sentence.
