thought, be got aver.--A number of Noblemen
and Gentlemen of distinction intend proceeding
forthwith to Holyhead, to swell the train of the
King, and to usher and welcome him to their
native land. For this purpose pleasure boats
and small vessels are in requisition, -and in some
cases very large sums have been paid for the
latter.—The dinner to be given by the Univer-
sity of Dublin to the King, will be one of the
most splendid entertainments ever given in this
kingdom. Dr. Hodgkinson, Dr. Lloyd, and Dr.
Wilson, are the Fellows who have the conduct
of it. The King will be received on this occa-
sion in the Library, from which a covered way
will be erected to the Theatre, or Hall, where
the dinner is to be laid. The number of persons
which this classic room is capable of accommo-
dating is stated to us about one hundred 'and
fifty.—A number of rooms have.been laid out at
the Treasury, for such personages in the suite of
the King, as these rooms can conveniently ac-
commodate. They are now putting into order,
and furnishing in the best style for the purpose.
General Sir T. Hammond, and four or five of
his Majesty's Equerries, will take up their resi-
dence here.

PATRIOT OFFICE, Fivr o'CLocK.—Government having
been pleased to put the following Official Documents into our
hands, for insertion, we have only time to obey their pleasure,

the analysis of man in their hands, are desirous
of making us understand a language beyond our
comprehension, and who have oftener than once
given birth to ennui in the midst even oflearned
societies appointed to heir them, and to applaud
their useless IncubratiOns.

M. Chaud has proved by his success that he
did right to drive morality from its true source,
and that in Religion we must seek for that
dom which teaches even the foolish and the
young. We have gained nothing by forgetting
this truth : to bring it back to the recollection of
his cotemporaries entitles the author to their es-
teem and gratitude.

[PRODS 4C THE HULL PACKET," JULY 30.]
We congratulate our readers on the happy re-
sult of the day which consecrated the Sovereign
to the duties of his office, and ratified, by the
solemn rites of religion, the covenant betiveen
him and his people. Nothing could exceed
the highly judicious, gratifying, and peaceful
manner in which the whole of the felicitous pro-
ceeding was commenced and conducted to its ac-
complishment. But, being accomplished, we see
the propriety of resuming other topics, espe-
cially such as are connected with the best in-
terests of the public. Of these the most im-

HOME CIRCUIT.

' HERTFORD, AUG. 2.
The Home Circuit commenced here to.day
before the non, Mr. Baron WOOD on the Nisi
Prins side, and the non. Mr. Justice Buanouo
on the Crown side. The business on the latter

side is less than the average quantity, there being
only about 15 cases in the calendar, very few of
which are capital offences. In the most heinous
case, namely, a commitment for rape, the Grand
Jury threw out the bill of indictment. On the
civil side the business is about the usual quantity.
Sixteen causes are entered, of which two are
Special Juries. In three cases of actions of debt,
on the statute of 2 Geo. 11., for bribery at the
last election for this borough, the records were
withdrawn. None of the cases on the Crowu
side to-day were of public interest.

CIVIL SIDE.
S EDUCTION.-DUNHAM V. BATCHELOR.

This was an action against the defendant, for
seducing the daughter of the plaintiff, wherebf
he lost her services.

Mr. BRODRICK (with whom was Mr. Abra,
ham) stated the plaintiff's case with considerable
ability. Mr. Marryat was for the 'defendant-
It appeared from the evidence of the daughter
of the plaintiff, a young woman of prepossessing
appearance, but whose demeanour under.exami4
nation was perfectly degagee, that her father was
a bricklayer in respectable circumstances, reside
ing at Wheathampstead, in this county, - She
was about 23 years of age. About three years
since, the defendant, a young man of the same
age, by "business a journeyman baker, in the
same village, paid honourable addresses to hers
but to whom she had surrendered her chastity,
and in the month of April last she was de-
livered of a child. Her father had paid the
surgeon's bill, -and had since maintained , the
child. She had three brothers and two sisters,
The youngest of the latter was la years Of
On her cross-examination she admtted that her
eldest sister had had three children by a man to
whom she was not married, and all of them were
born under her father's roof. She also admittec-
i
that the defendant boarded in his maste,r's house/
and received Ws. per week. wages. Previous te'
the birth of the child the defendant offered tcr
pay 3/. for the expenses of the lying-in, and 25.
Od. a week for the maintenance of the child. The
plaintiff agreed to these terms, but required tit
defendant to procure the security of hi,. father,
To this the latter consented, and appointed a da:r
to meet the plaintiff, but the defendant never
-came pursuant to his appointment.
Mr. MARRYAT, in his address to the ill'
urged the topics which obViously• presented thew
selves from the circumstances proved by thr'
young woman, who was ,the only witness tO preve
the case.

The Jury, under the learned' judges directions,
found a verdict for the plaintiff-4)amages 101.
CI owN SIDE.—No trial of any particular iLY-

CIRCULAR TO THE AGENTS TO LLOYD'S.
London, July 18th, 1821.

I am directed by the Committee for managing the affairs of
Lloyd's, to acquaint you that they have been in correspondence
with the Committee of the Society of Ship Owners, on a Plan
for the purpose of affording assistance to Vessels in distress, at
Sea or on the Coast ; and they intend to recommend by public
notice (copy annexed) to Owners, and Masters of Ships, that
their Vessels should be provided with Rockets and Blue Lights,
and in case of distress, in the first instance to fire a Rocket, and
then burn Blue Lights until relieved.—The Committee of Ship
Owners mean to write to the British Consuls at Ports abroad,
soliciting them to endeavour to procure the adoption of this
plan by Foreigners ; and this Committee having no doubt that,
if carried. generally into effect, it will be the means of saving
many valuable Lives and much Property, they request that you
will give the measure all the publicity in your power for the
information of Owners and Masters of Vessels, and the Boat-
men belonging to your Port.
I am, your very humble Sen. ant,'

THE KING &c.

WEST COWES, AUG. L
The squadron passed Cowes about two o'clock,
under a Royal salute from the Castle, and pro-
ceeded a few miles towards the Needles. But
as there was a fresh breeze right against them,
and the tide also was becoming unfavourable,
the squadron bore up for Cowes Roads, and the
Royal yacht came to her moorings opposite the
KING'S cottage here at half-past four o'clock.
The ships of war composing the Portsmouth
squadron, on their return, passed by the Royal
yacht, and it was a most gratifying sight to wit-
ness the scene which was then presented. Thou-
sands of spectators lined the shore, eager to testify
their pleasure at seeing the Royal yacht moored
once more in these roads. The ships of war, as
they passed, manned their rigging ; and the loud
huzzas of the sailors, as their different ships
moved by, were acknowledged by his MAJESTY,
who took off his cap, and bo-ved to them in the
most condescending manner. Several pleasure-
boats iv-ere moving here and there around the
Royal yacht. The steam-boat from Southampton
passed very close to his MAJ ESTY, and the ladies
on board were quite delighted by a very near
view of his person ; they waved their handker-
chiefs, and absolutely hung over the side of the
vessel, that they might see his MAJESTY as nearly
as possible. His MAJESTY bowed to them. The
KING is in the highest spirits after his day's sail, and
looks still better than he did yesterday. He appears
pleased with every mark of attachment that is shewn
to him,and looks upon every effort which is made to
come near his yacht with a good-humoured smile.
He is not sparing of showing his person, spending
the greater part of the day on deck. Most of the
yachts belonging to the Yacht Club are now
around the Royal yacht. The ships of war came
all to an anchor at five o'clock.--Cowes is all in
a bustle. The inhabitants and visitors are quite
delighted to have their KING near them.

MISSIONARIES IN PARIS.

PARIS, Nov. s.—The Missionaries, who have
been conducting their operations with great zeal
and considerable effect in nearly all the pro-
vinces of the kingdom, have now begun to stir at
Paris. They will most likely be encouraged by
.the new head of the Parisian church, as they are
already by the Court. Englishmen will probably
scarcely understand what can be the office of
those Alissionariq in places where a regular
priesthood is established, or what can be the
meaning of planting the Cross in a country where
it crowns every altar and surmounts every mo-
nument. The object of these fanatics, then, is
neither more nor less than to treat France as a
land of heathens, and to preach Christianity
among them as they would do among the Hot-
tentots. Wherever they appear, they, with great
pomp, and by the assistance of the Authorities,
make a procession, and plant formally the Cross.
Sometimes the Authorities oppose them, but are
threatened by them with the vengeance of the
Court. At Rheims, one of them asked a Sub-
Prefect, who refused to countenance his mum-
mery, " Monsieur, est ce que vous etes las d'etre
sous-prefect ?"—(" Sir, are you tired of office ?")
—The Chambers meet to-day in their own Halls.
Nothing will be done for some time but routine
business.—( Times.)

The Journal de la Haute Garonne of the 31st

watchfulness of the sanitary Cordon on the fron-
tiers of that department. On the preceding
night, one of the centinels hearing a noise not
far from him, called out three times, qui vine
No one answering, he, after giving notice of his

GENERA I. ORDER.

Hrse uards, Nov. 8, 1821:
The Commander,in-Chief haso obseGrVed that the King's Be-
gulation is generally neglected and evaded, which enjoins Co-
lonels and Commanding Officers of Corps to limit their rei,Ti-
mental bands to one serjcant fora master, and one musician
for each troop or company ; and that a number of men are
now taken frein the rankS and employed as musicians, to au
extent that is Cquall), injurious to the efficiency of the service,
as it is a hardship upon those who are subjected to the expence
attending this unauthorised irregularity.
It is always painful to the Commander-in-Chief to observe a
neglect of his Majesty's regulations ; and his Royal .Ilighness
fees it tic mote necessary to put a stop to this abuse, under
..the pcscnt reduced state of the regimental establishments,
which calls for the efficiency of every man, as far as it is possi-
ble to effect it. But although the establishment of troops and
companies in each regiment is reduced, yet it is not the wish
or intention of his Royal Highness to place the bands upon a
scale below what has been hitherto thought essential for the
due performance of the duty required of. them ; and they may
accordingly be still maintained to the regulated extent of a ser-
jeant master and ten musicians. But Colonels and Coinniand-
irig Officers of Corps are enjoined, and commanded, and held
responsible, that this number shall not be exceeded under any
circumstance, excuse, or arrangement whatever ; and such men
as are now, in contradiction to the King's regulations, clothed
and maintained as Musicians beyond this number, must be
immediately rerlaced in the ranks.
General Officers are called upon, at their periodical inspec-
tions, to see that the letter and spirit of this order are strictly
corm with.

By command of his Royal Highness,
The Commander-in-Chief,
H. TORRENS, Adjutant. General.

A detachment of the Royal Staff Corps, under
the command of Lieutenant, COLVETON, have
marched from llythe, to embark at Portsmouth
for Gibraltar.

The establishment under the .Honourable
Board of Ordnance at Hythft, is broken up, qnd
the workmen are discharged.
The following men of the East Norfolk Militia have been
committed to Ayisham Bridewell, for six months, agreeably
to the .Militia Laws, by the Rev. It. Turner, and Sir E. K.
Lacon, Baronet :—On the 20th October last, Wm. Smith, serv-
ing for the parish of Great Yarmouth ; and on the 29th of the
same month, Wm. Blake, serving for the parish of Geldston,
Clavering Hundred ; and Thomas Grimmer, serving for the
parish of St. Clement, Norwich, for being absent from the re.
giment during the last training period.

NUBIAN ANTIQUITIES.

jomAnn, of the French Institute, hasjust re-
ceived a letter from M. Cailliand, dated the sth of
May, from Assour, a village about a day's jour:
ney from Chendy in Nubia, in the kingdom of
Sennaar, in which that traveller communicates his
latest discoveries. At a short distance to the
south of the confluent of the Atbara,* the an-
cient Astaboras, and four day's journey from
Barhas, he found the ruins of a great town, with
la temple and forty pyramids still standing, and
forty others in ruins. The bases of the largest
of these pyramids are about sixtv-two feet, and
their height seventy-seven, and on one of the
sides of each_ is a small temple, ornamented in-1
side and outside with hierogl }Ada characters;
two of those temples are arched, and the arches
are decorated with hieroglyphic emblems, and
constructed like ours. This traveller has ascer-
tained that they are of the same age. as the Great
Pyramids-. All the materials are of freestone,
like the rock on which they are. built. Ismail
Paella, who commands the military expedi-
tion into Abyss:nia, permitted M. Cailliaud
to open one of these Pyramids ; some Greek
letters were found in another of them.—
The site of the temple and the ruined town is
about a league and half from the Nile, and most
of the pyramids are a league further, the sarne as
at Memphis. Bruce must have passed two
leagues only to the east without suspecting their
existence. An avenue of Sphinxes, in the shape
of rams, 262 feet long, leads to the temple, and
the wall which incloses it is 426 feet round
The island of Curgos, mentioned by Bruce, is to,
the south of Assour, and contains no monuments.
M. Jomard is of opinion, that the great ruins
near Assour are those of Meroe ; their latitude
about 16 degrees, 50 minutes, agrees with that
of 'Meroe, as given by Strabo and Eratosthenes.
The positions laid down by Bruce, in his map,
are tolerably accurate, but he has traced the
limits of the rains too much to the south. M.
Cailliaud proposed to remain, Burin;; the rainy
season, at Sennaar, with the expedition, to take
up his residence in the Fazuelo, and to proceed
afterwards up the Bahr-el-Abiad, or the IVhite
River, which he will ascend up to a certain dis-
tance, in order to procure information respecting
the course of. the Niger. -The thermometer was
constantly, during the month of April, as high as
45 degrees and upwards, and even as high as 48
degrees (43 degrees of Reaumnr, exposed no•
doubt to the sun). M. Cailliaud could not di
London, England, 1821-11-10

cover any remains of the tradition of Queen Ca

dace, whose dynasty, according to Bruce, were in
his time still on the Throne of Chendy. For a
long time our traveller has not taken the meri-
dian altitudes of the sun, which is too close to the
Zenith, and he can only determine the latitudes
of places by means of the moo❑ and stars.

* The Antiquities of Mount Barkal, near a place called
Merawe, are about 701eagues below, and very far from the con-
fluence of the Atbara which formed the Isle of 31 croe.

tess's "Advocate, Carwi-it (WALLACK) offers to support her if

the Countess consents to her marriage with her sou; and the'

her to recover her rights. - She rejects hial a second time, Anil

Ministers will neither become a party to the mea-
sures proposed, or prejudge the question. This
note, as it strikes us, is fair and explicit; and if
it fail to preserve peace, it will besitnpossible to
conceal the truth, that the influence of England
in the Councils of the Continent has waned.

[The Public Ledger.]
The accounts given in the Jamaica Pdpers'of
the .taking of .Lima by Lord Cochrane and 6e-,
neral San Martin, are not cowsidered as en-
titled to credence,---:Though they do not assign
any precise date for' Abe, capture, the inference
from the other partiCulars which they state is,
that it must have occurred early in October.
But letters,-dated the 27th of that month, have
been received from Lima, according to which,
nothing had been he'ard of the Chili expedition
subsequent to the re-embarkation at risco. The
report of the defection of Panama appears to have
been equally premature.

[Morning Post.]
The statements made by the Chancellor,of the
Exchequer on Thursday night were of so grati-
fying a character, that we need no apology to the
reader for returning to the subject. 'There is no
man who haS the least love for his country whd
must not rejoice at the prospect, or rather moral
certainty, held out in that communication, of a
great and growing state of national prosperity.
ft is upon occasions like this, that the narrow
spirit of Party gives way to more comprehensive
attachments; and that every true-hearted Eng-
lishman, without distinction of political sect,
takes part in the satisfaction which the increasing
welfare of the country ought to afford. What
enhances the *value of the explanations given by
the Right Hon. Gentleman, is the fact, that the
improvements therein noticed are not the effect
of temporary expedients, or Of new and uncer-
tain experiments, but the natural and unforced
results of a long established system of national
policy. They also justify the hopes and confirm
the calculations with which, ever since the Peace,
Ministers have met the fears of the honest, and
the exaggerations of the designing, with respect to
the revenue, and to commerce -; while they prove
the practical advantages•of the cautious policy ob-
served by Government, which never gave way to
the specious theories that were advanced by per-
sons of some weight in financial and commercial
matters. The cheering appearances that are now
presented, are the growth of ordinary circum.._
stances, and must inspire more confidence than if
they were the offspring of novel, and conse-
quently hazardous regulations. One-may now
plainly see the capabilities of the Country, which
in fact exceed the computations of even sanguine',
calculators ; and we can therefore look forward
to the future with more security, and may in-
dulge without presumption in the hope, that the'
nation, instead of having passed the meridian of
its prosperity, has not yet reached it.
