Majesties, and other branches of the Royal Family, whom they will en.

Castle at half-past ten, and on their arrival at Kew were received by the
duke and duchess, who ushered them into the house, and afterwards sc.
companied them through the botanical gardens, with the inspection of
which their majesties appeared highly gradfied. At 5 o'clock their majesties
and the rest of the Royal party, took tLeir leave, and returned to the

who proceeded to town, where tbs latter will remain, but the former i,

the Castle this day, on a visit to their Majesties. Their Majesties have

every day during the Races, which commence to-morrow. The annual
revel In Bachelor's Acre, usually held on the 12th of August, took
*es this day, in honour of his Majesty's birth-day. A variety or
eccentric sports enlivened the scene, and the evening will terminate by a
grand display of fireworks by Chevalier Southby, of Vauxhall-garden.
It is expected that their Majesties will leave the Castle on Friday nix!,
for town.

The Duke and Duchess of Cumberland gave a grand pub-
lic breakfast yesterday, at their residence at Kew. Some of

It is positively stated that at the recent Yorkshire election
33 lawyers actually offered to do the work of poll clerks for
Mr. Brougham and Lord Morpeth, without pay !
His Excellency Prince Troubetzkoy, Aide-de-Camp Ge-
neral of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia, has been ap-
pointed Ambassador Extraordinary, for the purpose of com-
plimenting the King on his accession to the Throne, and is

The Birmingham Journal says—" We regret to hear
that a Nobleman in this neighbourhood has bled on the turf
to the tune of 50,0001. His whole sporting establishment
will go to the hammer."
The late Durham election is said to have cost two of the
candidates upwards of 10,0001.
The Count Alexandre de la Borde, who lately presided in
Paris at the dinner given to General Lafayette, has given
Mr. Buckingham an invitation to come over to Paris, to lay

Ministry and Court.
On the Duke of Gordon taking leave, previous to depart-
ing for the North, his Majesty assured his Grace that he
would visit him next summer at Gordon Castle. Should the
King realise his intention, be will be the first British Mo-
narch who has penetrated so far into his Scottish dominions
since the unfortunate Mary Queen of Scots made her expe-
dition into the North in the autumn of 1562.

We learn, from an authentic source of information, that
Mr. Dean, the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners

of his Majesty's Customs, sent on Sunday morning for Mr.
Manning, and the Surveyor-General of the Customs, and
gave him instructions to proceed that very day to Ports-
mouth, for the purpose of seeing all the luggage and effects
of Charles X. landed and passed the Custom-house free of
duty ; but to take care, at the same time, that no pro-
hibited articles were introduced by his attendants and suite.
Mr. Manning set off accordingly that very afternoon, and
travelled post to his place of destination aforesaid, where
these orders are, no doubt, in the course of being executed
DOW.

Extract of a private letter of the 7th inst. from Lisbon :
" We have received by the last packet from London impor-
tant intelligence relative to the mission with which the Mar-
quis de St. Amaro is invested by Don Pedro. By the manner
in which Mr. Mackenzie, the English Consul, speaks of this
mission, it is natural to infer that the British Government
approves the following basis of an arrangement between the
two brothers :--1. Don Miguel shall be acknowledged by
Don Pedro as Sovereign of Portugal. 2. Portugal shall enter
into an engagement to pay the loan of twenty millions of
crusadoes, which King John contracted at London in 1824,
and for which Brazil has become responsible by the treaty
which acknowledged her independence. Portugal shall like-
wise pay the debt contracted for the maintenance of the
garrison of the island of Terceira, and of the Portuguese re-
fugees. 3. The marriage between Donna Maria and Don
Miguel shall be concluded as soon as the latter shall have
granted a general amnesty, and au indemnity to all the Por-
tuguese who have joined the Constitutional party."
Extract of a letter from an Englishman in Paris:—
" When one turns one's attention to the 27th, 28th, and
29th July,
_ one cannot help shuddering at the situation of
Paris. No police, no authorised Government, a total sus-
pension of the laws, the streets without lamps at night,
every ragamuffin armed and provided with the means of
slaughter for revenge, or any other cause with impunity ;
the rabble let loose from the prisons, all infuriated with in-
toxication and rage ; and what was the result ? Less crime
tan uanal—not even the amount of a pin was stolen from
y• where. No person was insulted, and property of every
ription respected. Is there any city in the world that
teald hare acted in such a way—that could have attended so
inillutily to the cause in view—to the total abstraction of
wary unworthy or base motive ?"
• Charles the Tenth and his Ministers seem eventually to
epbraid each other as the cause of their late disasters—the
King attributing the ordinances to the ill advice of the 31i-
austere, while the latter impute them to the obstinacy of
she King. One thing, however, is certain, that an honest
constitutional Ministry would and ought to have resigned,
rather than have lent themselves to measures which neither
their judgment nor their consciences could sanction.
TM application of leeches is so favourite a remedy with
the medical profession in France, that there are said to be.
in Paris alone, no less than ten leech-mongers, each of
whom sell, weekly, not less than 10,000, making an annual
consumption of them, in that capital alone, of from 5,000,000
to 6,000,000.
