PRINCE ESTERITAZY AND SUITE.

Early on Saturday morning last (the 25th
inst.), his Excellency Prince PAUL:. ESTERIiAZT, Minister
Extraordinary from the Emperor of Atistria to complement his
Majesty on his Coronation, accompaned by the Prince Nicholas
Esterhazy, Count Metternich (son to the Prime Minister of
Austria), the Baron Fiord, and a medical gentleman, arrived
at the Tontine Hotel, his Excellency and suite having cross-
ed the Irish Channel. from Donaghadee to Port Patrick in
a steam-boat. At ten o'clock in the morning the Prince Was
waited upon by the Lord Provost and Mr. Cleland, when his
Excellency expressed a desire to visit the manufactories, and
some of the public institutions. Open carriages were then or-
dered, and the distinguished strangers visited and examined the
principal manufactories, &c. till four o'clOek, when the Magis-
trates and the Professors of the University had the honour of
being introduced to his Excellency in the Town Hall, where an
elegant 'collation was laid out. The Lord Provost and Mr.
Cleland, who accompanied the Prince and his suite to the seve-
ral manufactories, had the honour of dining with them in the
evening.
His Excellency (who wore the rich orders of the Golden i
Fleece and the Guelph), was cheered by great crowds of peo-
ple wherever he went. After assisting at Mass yesterday
(Sunday, 26th instant), in the Catholic Chapel in Clyde-street,
the Prince and his suite left this place for Buchanan House,
on a visit to her Grace the Duchess of Montrose. We under-
stand-that the illustrious party are then to visit Edinburgh by
the way of Stirling.
The following are some of the principal manufactories and
institutions which his Excellency visited :—Mr. Inglis's ma-
chine for singeing muslin, by red-hot cylinders ; the gasometer
and gas-works; Messrs. Mitchell's manufactory for tambour-
ing rnusli.-.s by machinery; Messrs. Buchanan's callender, and
chemical bleaching ; Mr. Humplirey's fire-proof cotton-mill ;
Mr. Todd's mill for weaving muslins by machinery ; -Mr.
Thompson's mill, ball-thread, and cotton carpet manufactory ;
a number of steam-engines, steam-boats, &c. ; and Messrs.
Henry Monteith and Co.'s bandana works at Barrowfield.
bridge ; the college, public library, and Hunterian museum ;
the collection of medals ; the lunatic asylum, &c. His Excel-
lency and suite expressed their high approbation of what they
saw ; and were greatly delighted with the chemical experiments
of discharging, bleaching, and printing, at Messrs. Monteith
and Co.'s works, and with the immense water pressure of 249
tons, invented and improved by the ingenious manager, Mr.
George Rogers, whose description of the whole process gave
great pleasure to Prince Esterhazy. His Excellency conde-
scended to examine the apparatus for burning the smoke in
one of Messrs. Monteith's furnaces, and was quite delighted
with the results which are likely to arise from the invention.
He was also pleased to express his marked approbation of the
Public Park and the general appearance of the town.—(G LA'S,

THE CORONATION COMMITTEE.--The Corona-
-.

Lion Committee of Master Tradesmen have pub.,
lished a detailed account of the expenditure con-
nected with the celebration of his MAJESTY'S
Coronation in this town. They have also pub-
lished a similar account of the pecuniary relief
which was on that glorious occasion administer-
ed„, out ,of the Coronation Fund, to the unem-
ployed mechanics and other poor persons. It
appears from this statement, that the sum ex,.
pended in the celebration of the Coronation
was only 649/. 10s. 7d. When we consider the
splendid manner in which the Committee got up
the procession on that occasion, we cannot but
congratulate them on having managed to display
so much pomp with.so much economy. But the
most gratifying of all the transactions of

-
that proud d ay-was the pecuniary relief which
the Committee were enabled, by the liberality of
their fellow-townsmen, to extend to 5715 poor
and deserving individuals. The distribution of
this fund must have been as gratifying to the
A hnoners of the public bounty, as it was joyfully
and thankfully received by its numerous reci-
pients. The Committee have now concluded their
useful and valuable labours. They retire into
the bosoms of their families with the proud con-
sciousness of having discharged, faithfully and
zealously, an important public duty, and ac-
companied by the grateful applause of a com-
munity who properly appreciate the talent, ac-
tivity, and perseverance which marked all their
proceedings.—( Liverpool Courier, Aug. 29.)

CAUTION.—On the 21st instant, Mr. JOSEPH
JEENS, clothier, of Uley, Gloucestershire, was
convicted, before the Rev. W. L. BAKEIt and
W. M. ADEY, Esq. in the mitigated penalty of
101. for paying to JOHN AUSTIN, a workma❑ in
his employ, shop goods for his wages in lieu of
money, contrary to the statute.—(Bath Chron.)

SOLEM QUIS DICIiRE FALSUM AUDEAT?

LONDON,
FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 1821.

Under the head " TURKEY AND Russra," we
have in another column inserted an article from
Vienna, in which it is alleged that the Turkish
Government have acceded to the demands of
Russia ; and that peace will consequently be
preserved. We shall net be surprised to find
that this statement is a mere stock-jobbing
operation. If so, it has answered its pur-
pose ; as the funds rose one-half per cent.
yesterday in consequence of the intelligence. It
should be remembered that there are persons
interested in tl►e English funds at Vienna
as well as in London ; and that fabricated ac-
counts of this kind are almost certain to effect
their object before the falsehood can be de-
tected.—We leave the article, however, to the
judgment of our Readers. They will see that
the pretended articles of the Ultimatum are
much more moderate than it is likely that Russia has
proposed,—that they are of such a nature as to
render it improbable that the Divan, (in the pre-
sent situation of Turkey, without Allies and with
a civil war raging in the provinces), would have
so long deliberated upon them,—and that the
conduct attributed to Baron STROGONOFF is not
very consistent with that which may be expected
of a person placed in his circumstances. The
next arrivals, however, will most likely deter-
mine the question. We shall be grieved, indeed,
if the Greeks are abandoned to their fate in the
manner which this Vienna article represents.

A Dutch Mail reached us this morning, of

which we subjoin the couteutsi

44 ANTWERP, AUG. 27.---The Mercury of Ant-
werp contains an extract from a private letter
from Madrid of 12th Aug., in which it is stated
that his Majesty has signified to the Permanent
Commission of the Cortes, chat he should not
confirm the Decree of the 28th June relative to
the debt due to Holland, because he considered
it as not equitable ; that he feared also, in case it
W6-re carried into execution, it would give a severe
blow to the public credit, which cannot be reco-
vered from the lamentable state in which it now
is, except by a punctual fulfilment of obligations
which were contracted in good faith. His Ma-
jesty, it is further stated, has likewise announ
ced that he shall charge his Minister of Finance
to propose, in the approaching Session of the
Cortes, a new plan for the payment of this debt,
which would be more conformable to equity and
more honourable to the nation.

ANBTERDAM, AUG-. 27.—His Majesty's fri-
gate Algiers was launched to-day, in the pre-
sence of an immense concourse of spectators : it
received its name in honour of the day, which is
the anniversary of the great victory gained over
the Algerines by the English and Netherland
squadrons.

46 LEIPSIG, AUG. 10.—Though the troubles in
Greece are more sensibly felt here than in other
places, by the influence they have in injuring our
fairs and our trade in general, a Society has,

_ .
however, been formed, under the direction of
American rnerchants, for the purpose of affording

pecuniary assistance to all military men who are
disposed to enter into the service of the Greeks.
Officers receive from 150 to 200 dollars, subal-
terns the half.

4C FRANKFORT, AUG. 18.—An ardent desire to
effect a union" among the Protestants of the two
Commissions is observed on both sides of the Rhine.
What formerly divided them time has caused gra-
dually to disappear. They have returned to what
is essential, and not disputed by either party.--
Already, in 1817, those of the Duchy of Nas-
sau concluded a bond of union. In the follow-
ing year, the Protestants in the Bavarian Circle
of the Rhine imitated this example; and the
newspapers now state, that the General Synod,
which has been assembled at Carlsruhe, has led
to a similar result for the Grand Duchy of Baden'•
The union of the Protestants in the Circle of the
Rhine has mean time become more and more
consolidated. The whole of the external forms
of the Church have received a more appropriate
appearance. Ilitherto, however, these united
Churches wanted uniformity in their Psalmody,
the Liturgy, and the instruction of youth. These
obstacles are, however, now to be removed. For
this purpose, his Majesty has approved of the pro-
posal of the Supreme Consistory for calling 3
general Synod, to he held in this Circle. It ;5
to meet on the second of September, in the town
of Kaiserslautern, and may last, according t°
circumstances, 12 or 14 days. The Synod is
composed of a Royal Commissioner, a Supreme
Consistorial Counsellor, the Deans of the Circle,
15 Ministers, 16 lay Deputies : in all, 51
Members."

The answer of Lord BATHURST to the Pincir,
letter of Mr. Sheriff WArrumiNc, states, that h"
Lordship had ordered an inquiry into th,.
cumstances of the disgraceful riot at Knights-
bridge, previous to the receipt of Mr. WAlT'''.
ALIN'S communication ; and that the represent4i
tions, which had been made to his Lordship
°
the affair, differed in many. essential partiodals
from the statement of the Sheriff ! His Lordship
very properly expresses his surprise and regret 3t
the circumstance of the Sheriff having permitted 4
continued riot to exist after the Soldiers werewithdrawn within their barracks, ccthough ttlpie
Civil Power, under the direction of the Sheriffs
„
was fully adequate to the preservation Of the
peace among the people."—ln an attempt '-
reply to this serious charge, Mr. WArrnmA:4
treats the " continued riot,7 as a nen:, distinct,:
and unforeseen riot, which, he says, must have
occurred two hours after tranquillity had beenrestored, and he had left the ground. Now', trtl
truth is, that Mr. WArrumAN left the groom'
immediately after the soldiers had been wit/1;
drawn, whereas he ought not to have left it anti`
after the mob had been dispersed. It is not true
that when he retired tranquillity had been
stored. When a riot has occurred, trannuM""
is not restored ultil the whole of the persons pre'
sent at, or engaged in, it have been made to rein;
to their homes. It is the duty of the Civil PC/Vl,
to effect this, clear the theatre of the distu,
an ce entirely of the people,—to suffer no loiterers
to remain, not even two or three persons togethe;
It is the duty of the Peace Officers, if they h3vb
reason to apprehend the re-appearance of a mob'
to remain on the spot, even after first ctispers
and to prevent them from re-assembiing.—
WAITHMAN did none of this. He left a great
concourse of persons behind him, who had. be
riotously engaged, who continued to man felt
101
riotous disposition, and for the dispersion of, 14,4,
it afterwards became necessary for Mr. (,0N471
to read the Riot Act ; and vet Mr. WAIT7.I.
talks of tranquillitN having been restored
he left the ground!

The KING is said to have given up his inteficie'
visit to Wynnstay and journey through Waiesj.—
Preparations are, making for his IMAJcsvi.s, "of
ception at his Palaces in London on the 5_ ,"be.
