The Yoblic, we are persuaded, will hear `with
pleasure, that matters are in a train of amicable
adjustment between Mr. C. KEMBLB and the Ma.,
nager of Covent Garden Theatre. The Stage is
not 80 abondatitly supplied with theatrical talents,
that We can afford ►o lose such admirable Per-
formers as this Gentleman and his Wife, who
would have ranked I►igh in their profession at any
period of our dramatic histoty, and whose private
characters are so justly esteemed.

The Persian Ambassador, now on his tour to the
North, arrived at York on Saturday last. On
Sunday his Excellency visited the Cathedral, and
on Monday proceeded on his journey.
The 13;shop of Coax, last week, held his An-
nual Public Examination in the Scriptures and Ca-
techism, of the Children of Cork, in that Ci:y.—
His Lordship, on this occasion, was attended by
twenty-eight clergymen of his diocese,. and the.
number of children examined, amounted to twelve
hundred and thirty-nine.
At the General Meeting, of Lieutenancy for the
County ,and City of Worcester, holden at the
Hop-pole lon, in that city, the Earl of Covsts:-
TRY, the Lord Lieutenant, and Recorder of the
city, at tire conclusion of the Meeting, observed—
" It-Was impossible to separate without express-
ing his sincere.congrattdations on the tranquillity
of this loyal county awl city, at an awful moment
of intended Revolution, unrlrr the specious mask
of Reform ; he trusted the county and city of
Worcester would ever remain unshaken io their
principles, devot,d to the Throne, and steady in
the mairvenance of our excellent Constitution.
Under this iMpression he had not considered it
necessary to convene a Meeting for the purpose of
addressing the Prince Regent, being well assured
that his Royal Highness had implicit confidence
in the fi.telity and attachment of this loyal coun-
ty and city."

The Bishop of LONDON, on WeduesdAy last,
Consecrated the.netv hurying•ground at South-
►ningter, in E%sex, after preaching a most impres-
sive discourse to a numerous congregation, in aid
of the National School of that town. Flis Lord-
ship took hts text from the 61) chapter of the
Ephesians, verse 4.—" Fathers, provoke not your
children to wrath ; but brine them up in the nur-
ture anti admonition of the Lord."

A RADICAL STANDARD BEARER—One Daniel
Connell, blacksmith, was lately prosecuted
before the 111,gis:rates of Glasgow, for enter-
ing the house of an aged widow, on Saturday
night last, and committing a cruel assault on her
and her family and being convicted, was sen-
tenced to sixty days' confinement in Blidewrll,
and ordered to enter into security tot his good
behaviour for twelve months hereafter. Connell
was confined in Bridewell three months on a
former occasion. and is well known to the Po-
lice Officers. This person appears to have late-
ly taken up the trade of a " Radical Reformer,"
having had the honour to carry the- principal
Standard at the march to Meikleriggs Moor,
where he, no doubt, in common with others,
mourned for the victims to the " brutal rage the
Manchester Yeomanry ;" hut he seems to liaVte for-
got himself on the day of the Itotherp,len Meeting,
for he partook largely of vile spititoos liquors in
the afternoon, and at night, wreaked his venge-
ance on helpless females wider their own roof.
EXTRAORDINARY ComcinuNca.---Doring the
hop-picking all the qiree tollowing accidents
happened on the extensive plaotatioo of JAM as

VISIT OF rRiNtE LEOPOLD TO OXFORD.

°stroll°, OCT. 29.-11 having been ascertain=
ed that his Roved Highness Prince taoroLn, on
his return to the Metropolis front the North, had
contemplated a visit to this University, it was unit-
nitudosiy determined„ by a vote of Convocition
on Thursday last, that the Honorary Degree of
LL.D. should be presented to him by diplotni.—
Accordingly the Vice,;:hanrellor accompanier) by
the two Proctors, went at an eat !y hour yesterday
morning to the seat of Earl Haicourt, at Nolte-
ham, (who re he had arrived on the preceding
evening) lot the pin pose of confet ring upon him
that distinctiOn. Shortly afterwards his Royal
Highness, accompanied by the Noble Ball kind the
Members who foinied his suite, arrived in Oxford ;
and the Theatt e having been appointed as the place
of Couvocation, the Plitiee (tvearing the Order of
the Garter, and in his Doctor's robes) walked into
it, side by side with the Vice-Chancellor, and was
followed by the young Noblemen of the Univer-
sity, and a long train of Academical Dignitantts.
The following distinguished personages, forming
part of his Royal Highness's suite, were then in,-
ttoduccd, with the customary ceremonials, to the
Vice Chancellor, and admitted to .the Honorary
Degree of LL.D.:—
The Baron de Hardenhrock, Xnight of the Order of St.
John of Jerusalem, Ste. and Equerry and Aide-de-Canip to
his Royal Highness the POnee

Sir Anbert'Williain Gardiner, K:C.23; &c. and Equerry
and Aide-de-Camp to Ins noyal filOiness the Prince Le,poid.
Christian Frederick Stocktuar, M.D., Physician to his hoyeti
Highness the PrinFe•Linpold.
They were sevenilly presented by ins. Philli-
more, Esq. M. P.. and Professor or Civil Law its
the University, who, in a Latin speech, recom-
mended by his wonted energy of manner and ful-
ness of tone, not only commemorated their
trophies and private deserts, hut with a mas-
terly address and the most graceful felicity, both
of composition and delivery, adverted to the in-
teresting sorrows of \ the. Prince whom they
server!, and the honourable sympathy with which
those feelings had been shared by the whole po-
pulation of Britain. The Theatre was crowded to
its very extremities; and both on the entrance and
departure of his Royal Highness, it rang and
thril!ed with a thunder of applause that seemed
to rush irresistibly from the heats of those who
bestowed it.

The- remainder of the morning (which, we are
sorry to say, was very unpropitious) was occupied
by his Royal Highness in visiting the public build•
ings of the University, and in the evening he
dined at the lodgings of the Vice-Chancellor,
where he met the Earl of Harcourt, the litshop of
Oxford and Landaff, the Dean of Christ Church,
with some few wirers of the Heads of llonses,and
the two Proctors. It is needless for us to say,.
that, at such a table, the Prince received every
gratification that could be conferred by a very
elegant banquet, still further adorned and re-
commended. by the most refined and highly culti-
vated manners, and all the graces of hospitality
on the put of those who bad the honour to ett-
twain him.—His Royal Highness was dressed in
a suit of black, and wore his hair without pow-
der. His figure is tall, and finelyproporlioned.
He appeared to labour (so far, at least, as such
feelings could be denoted by an external appear-
ance) under much depression of spirits, and a pale
and tlioughthil cast of melancholy'hung over his
countenauee—it being probable that the healing
hand of time has not, as yet, dosed the deep and
sacred wounds inflicted by that severe dispensa-
tion of Providence, whiCh is still fresh in the re-
collection of all our Readers.

3 8 mes I+,•cl the Mayor, convened a Spe-
cial Common Council. yesterday folenoon, upon
occasion of the Prince's visit to this city, whet eat
the following Resolution was passed unanimously,
viz..—

" The Mayor having assembled his Council upon the arrival
in this City of his august Highness Prince Leopold of Saxe Co-
hourg, the illustrious and beloved Consort of our late most
deeply lamented Princess Charlotte of Wales, this House, anx-
ious to pay every possible tribute of respect to her blessed
memory, and to evince their profound respect and regard.for
a Pri,:ce who has endeared himself to this Nation, not less by
his virtuous and exemplary conduct, than by his near con-
nexion with the Royal Family, do unanimously, resolve to
present to his said august Highness Prince Leopold, the ho-
norary Freedom of this City; and to request of hi 3 11;gh n vss
that he will be graciously pleased to allow his oame to be en-
rolled amongst the Members of this ancient and loyal Cor-
poration."
And we understand that the Prince is to be
waited upon at rite seat-of Earl Harcourt, at None-
ham, at nine o'clock this wurniug, by a deputa-
tion, consisting of the Msyor, the Belie') of Assist-
ants, the Bai;iffs, and Town Clem k, for the purpose
of presenting to hii Highness, in do_ form, the
honorary Freedom thus voted to him.

His lioyal Highness Prince Leopold, on his ar-
rival in Oxford, on Thursday evening changed
horses at the,Star Inn, where the populace greeted
hint with three cheers.
