general facts stated in his petition, they were

L:t lessen the blatne attached to M. MADIER, iii
axci.ting great alarm, and' refusing to prove his
asertiotts.—Naples, it is believed, will not be
tta.cked. by Austria ; and as to Spain, France is
th

A
it is. not likely that there will be any capi-

the frittering away of offices amongst so

splendid.

'THE kINGIS COURT:

CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY ADDRESS.
• MAJESTY having been graciously pleated.
to command yesterday as the day on which he
would receive the loYal and dutiful Address
from the Learned Body of the University of
Cambridge, the King held a 'Court' principally
for that purpose, at his Palace in Pall-Mall. At•
two o'clock a Guard of Honour, composed of the
brigade of Grenadier. Guards, in' white gaiters,
preceded by the band of the first regiment of
Foot Guards, in their state uniform, marched
into the Court-yard of the Palace. A detach-
ment of :the Life Guards, with their band of
trumpets, trombones, and kettle-drums, in their
splendid,state uniforms, marched into Waterloo-
place, opposite the Palace, about the same time..
Each of the bands played alternately some de-
lightful marches, overtures, &c. which gave the
whale P. very martial and splendid' effect. Sir
Robert Baker, the Chief Magistrate of the Po
lice, with, ToWnsend, Sayer, and a numerous
assemblage of Police officers, were in attendance.
The porters at the gales appeared in their new
state liveries, with their embroidered sashes and
staves. The Marshalmen,. Gentlemen Porters, and
Under-porterS, appeared at the grand and side
entrances to the Palace. In the -kraud hall were
the Pages sand the Gentlemen Porters, in their
-purple and gold uniforms. The YeoMen.Goard
lined the grand hall. Thee Grooms of the Great
Chamber, and other attendants, were in waiting
in the octagon hall. Several of the distino-uisk-
ed Members of the University of Cambridge,
who are in the habit of attending Court,
arrived, at the Palace previous to the ge7
iteral procession of the Members of the Uni-
versity reaching it, -they having assembled at
Willis's ;looms,- in King-street,St, James's, with
the University Officers, &c. frOm which place
they began to move in grand procession a few
minutes, before three o'clock, guarded through
the streets by Lavender, 'of .Bow-street,_ and -a
numerous bodayof peace officers. The Procession
was headed :d.; two Esquire Bedells, in their
full robes, carrying their silver insignia of office,_
followed by,the Vice-Chancellor, the Caput, the
Proctors, Pro-Proctors, Taxers 'Moderators, and
Scrutators. On their arrival at the Court-Yard
of the Palace, they were received by the Guard
of Honour with presented arms, the hand playing
a salute, the whole presenting a most interesting
scene ozone of the most. Learned Bodies in the
world, composed of the eminent characters of the
age for learningttn.d general great talents, and of
which an, extraordinary
:numerous
_assemblage of
that Learned Body took place yesterday, espe-
cially considering the season when such numbers
of Members of the University are distributed .at

Their aPpearance • in their academical 'robes
had a very` splendid and' novel appearance-in the
metropolis: They wericshewn into the crimson
drawing-room and anti-room, on their arrival at.
the Palace,. Hiss .Majesty soon afterwards :re-
ceived the -report of- the effective state", of the
three regiments' of. Foot Guards, and gave 'the
military pass-word to the Officer commanding

ing ; Sir George Bolton, as Equerry in Waiting ; the Page of

nounced his Majesty's readiness to receive then',
and 'conducted them 'into the Royal presence,
when after the: usual obeisances to-the Sovereign,
the ViCe,Chancellor • advanced in front of the
Throne, and delivered the loyal Address voted
to his Majesty by the University in the-most:
energetic and felling manner, appearing to
breathe his own , spontaneous sentiments.
Majesty, in answer, delivered a most 'firm, digni-
fied,and apprOpriate reply. The Noblemen and
Gentlemen composing the numerous and -splendid
assemblage Were most graciously :received, and
had the honour to kiss his. Majesty's band. After
the Gentlemen of the University had retired his
Majesty gave an audience to the Sheriffs 'of Lon-
'don. and MiddleseaCeompanied. by the City

mands, when he would be pleased to receive the

tion of'the Court of Aldermen this day, at three
o'clock, and the Court Of Coltman Council to-

ions to rescue our city from the stigma which
.such a proceeding is calculated to attach to it, if
tacit met by a contradiction, do hereby declare,
that the Address alluded to does not contain" our

compelled by it to declare, that the QuEr.x's con-

proposed by Mr. ATCHESON, Mr. SHAW returned
thanks in a neat, animated speech, expressive of
the -necessity there was to uphold and-preserve
the Navigation System of the Country; for con-
ceding the priority of claim to public considera-

OUTRAG-Vi‘AT OXFORD.—In addition to the
particulars already before the public' relative to
outrages at Oxford, two or three instances of
such
.gross and violent -conduct. have. since come
to our knowledge, that we feel bound to lay
them before the public, as exhibiting the bru-
tal, -,of deluded • individuals, Between
eleven and twelve o'clock on Wednesday..night,
as the Rilverend • W. -S. Phillips, N. A. •of
Trinity College was returning 'quietly home from
a friend's rooms at Christ Church,. he was, on
the signal of Queen" being given, most grossly
assaulted :by three' Men, who rushed on him at
the same moment,., struck him with the utmost
violence on the, head. and face, and continued to
'do so, v, ithout mercy; till they were alarined by
the arrival of the watchman. This assault is ren-
dered,,doubly aggravating, from the circumstance
of its having occurred, after' the Proctors had, re-
tired to their. Colleges, and
,tranquillity appeared
restored. We ape happy to add,. that by • the
spirited exertions of the authorities in the Unir
.versity, the offenders have been apprehended,
and are committed, to take their trial at the next
ass4es. The same 'evening' the' lton. Russeil
Barrington, of Oriel College,. was attacked in
a smilar and equally unprovoked manner ; and
though a handsorne reward has beeri offered,
the perpetrators of the assault have not been
brought to justice. Several other 'gentlemen
of the Vniversity were seriously, injured :in the
course of the -evening,, but .our correspondent,
'instances the two cases above-mentioned as being
the most' daring and outrageous. As a proof of the
alarrn which' such occurrences have created, it
need only be necessary to statenat unto of the Most
respectable Colleges in the University has; had
recourse to the unusual proceeding of dismissirig_
'their member,i for the Chriitmas recess- a.-week
