Colonel Vassali,- the btothei of General Piga,
arrivA in London, we hear, in the middle of the
night Ucture last, from the Queen. lie Icft her
Majesty at Geneva, and perttirmed the j,urney
trwn thence to this capital in les.; than four days,
although detained sonar time at Boulogne. if the
rapidity of the ine:•eitg;er were always, as it is ge.
ne:ally, H proof. of the importance or urgency of
theinessage, considerable kite! est would attach to
this journey of Al. VAssaii.

We are authorised to-state that the Govern-
mem of New Granada has ouleted their agents
to notify, that 'lime who, by the interposition or
with ti►e concurrence of Senor Real, lent money
to form, to tquip, or to transport the Expedition
of Macgregor to Porto-Bello, will he consider►d

An inquisition teas taken yesterday in the Board
Room of St. Thomas's liospit4l, before Mr. St-fist...-
TON, Coroner. on the body of Hannah Coiner,
widow, aged 63, who pot a period to her existence
by drink tog agoafortis. Verdict---" That the de-
ceased's death was caused by her own act in shrink-
ing aspiatortis, .being at the time 111 a state of
utt ti al deransetuelq," ••

" On one of those occasions, at noop, the Lieu-
tenant of the watch, agreeable to nautical custom:
informed the Captain, whilst conversing with his.
Majesty, that it was twelve o'clock. .4 Make it
so; Sir,' replied the Captain ; meaning to order
the bell to be !nog for the cause of the nautical
day, and the commencement of a new one. The,
King was instantly siruck with this, and with a
smile observed to the Captain—' You, Sir, pos-
sess. more power than :1 do; I cannot make •it.
what time I please.'
fi Mien, ou flue -aucteeding day; the SOuth-
amptou sailed with them on a short 'craize, it was
the King's express order-that no salutes should be,
fired, nor even the Royal Standard hoisted, either
by the men of war or the barges. hi short, it
scented his anxious wish to get rid of all it ate; in-
deed, the whole Royal Party endeared themselves
more and more everyday to the people on shore,
and to the officers and seamen afloat, by their ha-
bits of familiarity, condestensiou, and suavity of
manners. 'Thtoughottt the whole of their excur-
,sions, 'bete was on. the pat t ot,the Royal Pair no
assumption of painful pre-eminence, or imposing
stipet unity.' The awe of state was removed by the
ease of the gentleman ;. and the Princesses were
the theme of praise from every tongue."--
" The King was now understood to have reco-
vered his health in a surprising degree ; and ad-
dresses,upon this happy event poured in from
every part of the kingdom : but 41 the midst of
this blaze of loyalty from his own subjects, a
most palpable insult was offered to him by those
who had once been under his ieway, On the 6th
of August, beingon huattl the Southampton, on
acruise in the oiling, the Royal Standard flying,
and accompanied by the Magnificent, a large Awe--
rican ship, proudly displaying her thmeetritripes,
thought proper to pass close to the Southampton
under a press of sail, not deigning to pay even
the customary salute to a man of war, of
lowering star topgallant sails. Of this insult, it
was judged improper „tor the Southampton to take
any immediate notice;
,but the Magnificent in-
stantly made sail atter- the rade Columbian, and
having fired a shot a-head of her, she thought
proper to make more than: the necessary repara-
tit,n, by lowering both topgallant sails and top-
sails, as a mark of deference."

in the course of the Su`tiu tour, the Royal
Party made an excursion to Plymouth, and were
received with all due bottoms.

," On a visit to tire dock-yard, on the ensuing
/fay, nothing passed unnoticed by his Ala.ksty. He
minutely examined every thing in the yard, par-
ticularly the oriole of copper lug the ships ; whilst
every process was executed in the various depart-
ments for his inspection. On his visit 10 the Vic-
tualling Office, on the twentieth, he was very
particular in his irgoities respecting the quality of
the provisions 5 tasting the biscuit, and ordering
sonic of the beet to be sent to Salt ram fur the
same purrose. lie also took a minute survey of
the citadel, of all the military works, and of the
gun-wharf; and examined all parts of liamoitze,
proceeding afterwards 10 the Niaker Tower; assi-
duously accompanied, whilst afloat, by the party
of mermaids already mentioned., A visit to Mount
Edgecumbe.filled up the t went y-first, from whence
the views.aremosi enchanting;, and on this occa-
sion the Princess 11oyal observed to ht-r sister;
that it was only rect silly they had seen the beauties
of !wore to perfection—that their lives ititherto
had ben spent rather in a clobter than in a
kingdom, abounding, every where with such
