YROVINdIAL JOURNALS,

We perceive with pleasure that the Ctrr oQ
Worcester has not been behind band with the
COUNTY in the zeal of its Address to his Royal

,
Highnest,the PRINCE' REGENT, on the lamented
death of the QUEEN; and that which had been pre-
pared .for it on the occasion by its Member Lord
DEERHURST, has, we find, given so much satisfac-
tion to the inhabitants in general, from the loyal
character of the composition, that we cannot pass
it over in cur selections ftom the PROVINCIAL
JOURNALS :--

" To his Royal Highness GEORGETRINCE of WALES, Regent
of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.
" We, the Mayor, Recorder, Aldermen, and
Citizens of the City of Worcester, approach your
Royal Highness with undiminished feelings of loy-
alty, and respect, and venture to offer to yours
Royal His.;lsness onr deep and sincere Condolence
upon the death 14 her most gracious Majesty the
Queen._ The painful duty which now desolves
swan us is somewhat lightened, however, by.the
reflection that her Majesty's life had been extend,
ed to a lengthened period, and that her departure
relieved her front those bodily stifles-logs neces-
sarily attendant upon the disease which terminat-
ed her Majesty's existence.
" But, Sire, we, your reflecting nod truly loyal
subjects, have, in the midst of our heavy task, au
alleviation of our sorrow afforded us, in the gra-
tifying recollection of the filial piety and Wee-
tinnate care which has been displayed in your
Royal Highness's solicitude during her Majesty's
protracted illness. The fatal' blow could not,
alas, be averted ; but the conch of disease has
been softened by the tender and affectionate
offices of him, who, by the endearing ties of
consanguinity atsd nature, could best sooth the
pillow of affliction. The enlightened mind of your
Royal Highness needs not an excitement from us,
to impress upon its recollection all the satisfac-
tion it must no.e receive Irons a recurrence to the
feelings which animated it its the midst of heavy
calamity, enabling your Royal Highness to bur-
pa,a even your warmest energies in the perform-
ance of every social and moral duty. Such has
been your Royal ilighness's conduct towards your
beloved Mother and our revered Queen, that your
loyal subjects in this City, have, with one voice
(which must be the voice too of this happy coun-
try); to-day borne testimony to its sense of obli-
gation to you,—an obligation to you bursting
from us with one accord—an obligation to' be
'handed by us to posterity, the spontaneous effu-
lion,of your faithful subjects, lo eath:ng imperfect-
ly perhaps in this Address the impressions and feel-
ings of their grateful hearts.
Her Majesty held forth an illustrious example
to her sex, which rendered the Court in which
her virtues were conspicuous the purest perhaps
thsit the world had ever beheld, and that Isigh ex-
'ample diffused its influence over' the whole of the
Irish r Empire. But we will not pretend to en-
Inge upon those.vittues which the page of His-
tory will record, but content ourselves with
.hum-
bly beseeching your Royal Highness to accept
our sincere Condolements, and to assure your
Royal Highness that we subscribe ourselves, with
devoted attachmen'. your Royal Highness's
faithful and most dutiful subjects.
" Given under our Common Seal, in the Coun-
cil Chamber of the said City, the llth December,
1818."

The following Letter, acknowledging the re-
ceipt, and announcing the presentation of the Ad-
dress of Condolence from the Noblemen, Gentle-
men, Clergymen, and Freeholders of this County,
has been received by the Most Noble the Marquis
of NORTHAMPTON, Lord Lieutenant of the Comi-
ty, from the Secretary of State for the Home De-
partment, by the command of the PRINCE Re-

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.

MADRID, DEC. 17, 1818.----A Courier arrived a
-few days ago, by way of Brussels, from London,
bringing thu melancholy particulars of the death
of the Queen of England; but the letter from the
Prince Regent to his Catholic Mjesrs, not having
yet arrived, the order for the Coort. Mourning has
not yet been given. The British Embassy and
English are, however, all in deep black, and do
not go to Court for the present.
ty our recent accounts from Cadiz, the two
vessels which, under the Insurgent flag, ahont
eight months ago, plundered an English packet,
have altived at that port, and are now, we sup-
pose, sequestered, and the masters and crews in
prison, under a charge of piratage. The master
of the larger vessel,. before sailing froth Cadiz,
seas heard to declare, he wanted and would have
money, with other impudent deci.rations, which
contributed to their suspicion, led to their de•
tection, and will uliniately !cad them to the
scaffold.

Ptihee attached to Iht. Ilossiao Ein-
ba.sy at this Court, has arpi‘ed from his late
toit.sioo to .fix-la.(;liapelle. The INlioisters main-
aeir pinces, mud the talk even of a change
lonifer exists.

Sir Hobert Steele has bad a private audience to
take leave of the King (the lingli%li not attending
court till the numritiug is ottlervd). 1I e is going
on a visit to the Escurial and St. lldefonso.

Georgiana Wclfc ley has not received

. The I):ici►ess of Benevento gave a gran►l hall
last evening, which was not atten►led by the Bri-
tish Embassy, in consequence of the recent ►leath
of the Queen.

The Queen of Sl►ain is daVy expected to be
brought to bed, hilt her Majesty's health yet pt r-
inks her to take an airing every morning. The
desire of the King for n son, and his brother hay-
ing an heir, is indescribable.

gallant Gcnerel, w 'lieu took place a few days

misfortunes of this life. A short time since, the
Countess Munster was suddenly brought to bed,

this situation the Countess caught the measles,
and e.nonunicated them to the two children,
Avlto both died under the effects of that dreadful

[The Times.]
The intelligence received yesterday from Paris,
anti tut nisheii by the private letters of Friday and
Saturday, I've latter being sent by express, was
of .t nature extremely important, and in its first
aspect alarmiog to the commercial world. Early
in the day, the rumour became pretty generally
circulate,: and credited, that no less than 12
noocantile houses ni that city had suspended their
payments. Front the intimate commercial union
that subsists between tile two capitals, the ut-
most ati%iety was naturally felt by all persons
connected with Paris to ascertain the real slum-
of affairs. The names of the parties who had
really been dcelared insolvent soon became
known, and proved the original accounts to have
exaggerated nccir number as well as their import-
ance. We have ascertained front the most au-
thentic soloces, that as far us intelligence has
been hitherto received, -only seven establishmetits
have failed, and those, with two exceptions, are
of subordinate rank.' The following, we believe,
may he depended on as a correct list of the houses
in question :—Bovard, Bourdillon, and Co. ;
Doyen; 'Martin de Parch and Co. ; J. Recamier;
Desprez ; Ge. Danielle ; and Pargez.—lt is ma-
terial to observe, that no inference can be drawn
from these failures unfavourable to the general
state of commerce in Paris. We understand that.
the houses above narned are all connected, more
or less, with each other, and that the fall of one
or two of them was likely to carry with it serious
detriment, if tint ruin, to the others : nearly the
whole of theni have emhatked in large specula-
tions its the funds ; indeed, it was the very fit st
day (Friday last) of the liquidation or settlement
of the time-bargains for the preceding month,
that disclosed their inability to fulfil their en-
gagements : tl.at period had tint terminated whet)
the last acconws lett Pat is ; and therefore, though
there is every reason to hope that the utmost ex-
tent of the mischief is already known, the next
at rivals will be anxiously looked for. The funds
appear to have benefited rather titan otherwise by
these apparently untalonfalde circomstances; the
5 per cents. being quoted on Ftiday, as we are
