THE KING'S SPEECH.

This day at Two o'Clock the KIN 6 proceeded
in State to the House of Lords, and having put
011 his Robes in the Robing-room, his 11AJEsTI
entered the hlouse, preceded by the Great Officers
of State, and of the Household, and ascended Ilia
new and superb Throne, which has just betn fit'
ted lip for the occasion,

The Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod wag
sent to com►uand the attendance of the House of
Commons.

Shortly afterwards, the SPEAKER and a great
number of Members came to the Bar.

The following is a correct Report of the Speech
delivered this day from the Throne :

AIAJESTY takes die earliest occasion of

assembling his Parliament, after having recurred

to the Sense of his People.

In meeting them personally for the First Tune

since the Death of his brloved Father, lEs MA.

ISSTY assures them, that lie shall always continue,

to imitate his great Example, in unceasing Atten-
tion to the Public Interest, and in Paternal

clititle for the Welfare of all Classes of his S►ub•

jeCt3.

He has received from Foreign Powers renewed
assurances of their frieutlly disposition, and of
thiir desire to cultivate with Ilis MAJESTY tloa

Relations of Peace and Amity.

The Estimates shall be laid before the House
of Commons, and are framed upon principles of

strict Economy.

His MAJESTY regrets that he cannot dispense
with the increase of the Military Force which be
announced to the Parliament last Session.

The Speech then directs their attention to the

Civil List. His 51A3p.sTY leaves at their disposal
his Interest in the Hereditary Revenues, and does
not desire arty addition to the Settlement adopted

in 1816.

His MAJESTY then deeply regrets the Debigns

of the Disaffected, and their Acts of Insurrection;

but expresses his Satisfaction at the Vigilance of

the Magistrates, and the zealous Co-operation of

those whose Exertions were called forth to sul►..

port the Authority of the Laws.

The wisdom of the late Parliament, and the

due execution of the Laws, have tended to restore_..,,,,.
Confidence and Tran►luillicy, and to discoun-

tenance Sedition and lrre:igion.

11i3 111AJESTIC

relies upon die Support of Parliament in main-.

taihing the Public Safety.

The Speech proceeds to state it to be their com•

mon Duty to protect the Loyal, Peaceable, and

Industrious.

Finally, His MAJBSTY trusts that theDelnded will

be awakened to a sense of the dangers they boa

incurred, and will revive in themselves that Spiric

Of Loyalty, anti Ow Attachment to the Con,'

stitution, which subsists unabated in the hearts

of the great t3od`• of his People, Hod which, un-

der Divine Providence, have secured to the Bri-

tish Nation the enjoyments of a larger share of

Practical Freedom and P osperity than have fallen

to the lot of any Nation.

The Commons made their obeisances and re,
tired. The KING withdrew from the House with
the same state as u:► his MAJIISTY'S entrance; st►d

ere the Josephinos refused admission into Spain,
but those
who had already returned are to he ex-

refuge in Portugal, and others are on their way

" MADRID, APRIL 14.—The Decree, or rather

NIAGARA, (CANADA,) FEB. 18.—We are in-
formed that, a few days since, one of the Six

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM NORFOLK, (VIR.,
GINIA), MARCH IS.

" By an arrival yesterday front the Havannab,
5 days, we have accounts of an insurrection in
St, Jago.de Cuba. The vessel in question sailed
from HiVkinliah the 40.1 inst. and the account of
the insurrection bad been received there about 10
days previons, duriog which time .he Governor
bad fitted out an expedition, consisting of two
transports with troops, under convoy of a ship of
war, which sailed from Havannah on the 3d of
ibis month for St. Jago, to aid in quelling the
-insurrection. It was understood the Insurgents
*etc principally Blacks, but the extent of their
numbers my informant did not understand: The
*hip Virginia,.Fisnatt, in 31 days trout Liverpool,
in Hampton•roads yesterday,"

The tumult which took place last night at Drury
Lane Theatre ought not to be passed lightly
over, as it affords a specimen of what may be
expected in the conflict of Parties, if TUE QUEEN
shoidd revisit this Country, and her Advisers
aiJ9uld induce her to bring matters, best buried in
oblivion, into public discussion. It is now confi-
flently said, that her MAJESTY'S real friends have
(lissuatled her from returning, urging that enquiry
bill be unavoidable, and can only be attended with
the disturbance of the national peace, without
affording the chance of any beneficial result to
the country or herself. We hope that she will
listen to this judicious counsel for her own sake,
todepentlently of all those considerations which
ought to operate upon her mind in reference to
her domestic duty, as well as from respect to the
People, and the tranquillity of the State.

The Earl of LIVERPOOL yesterday gave a Din-
e'F' to the Cabinet Ministers and several Mem-
bers of the House of Lords, preparatory to the
reading of the Speech which his MAJESTY this
"ay delivered ft oin the Throne. The Doe of
Alenitrose, the Doke of Wellington, Mark quess
Camden, Marquess Cholmourh ley, .Maripte,s of

bury, Earl Hai rowby, Viscount Sidmouth, Vis•
taunt Melville, Lord St. Helen's, Lord Arden,

THE STATE PRISONERS.

OLD BAILEY, APRIL '27.

CONTINOATIoN OF THR TRIAL OF TIDD AND

,DAYIDSOII.I

This morning the Commissioners, Mr. Baron
Gaanow, Mr. Justice BesT, the Common Ser-
jeant, &c. &c., took their seats on the Bench at
usual hour (nine o'clock).
The Jury having entered the Box, their names
were called over, and the Prisoners placed at the
Bar. The usual exhibition of tire-arms, and the
implements of destruction intended to be used by
the Conspirators, took place.
Ruthren, Bishop, Taunton, and other Police
Officers were exstnined, and the grenades, &c.
were taken to pieces by Serjeant Anson, of the
Artillery, u,lio explained to the Jury their de-
structive effects.

The case for the Crown here dosing, Mr. CUR-
WOOD addressed the Jury in behalf of the pri-
sontrs. The Learned Counsel considered that all
had been offered that could be said, and called
the following witnesses, viz.:—
Chambers, Mary Barker, John Bennett, --
Cook, Macwilliam Wood, and Brench. These
persons severally gave the prisoners a good cha-
racter, as honest, sober., and industrious men;
One of them had knOWn Davidson when he was 'a
student of Mathematics at Aberdeen. These wit-
nesses were examined by Mr. ADOLPHUS,. who
afterwards addressed the Jury; and *horn' our
Reporter left speaking.

[FURTHER PARTICULARS OP YESTERDAY'S PRO-

CBEDINGS.)
After the conclusion of the examination of Adams yesterday,
the same evidence was given throughout. against the prisonet s
Davidson and Tidd, as had been given threetimes before.
Mr. Baron GA 'MOW then said,—Gentlemen of the Jury, the
case for the prosecution is now closed, all but the production
of the arms. if by sitting late there were any probability of
bringing the trial to a close this night, I should consult you
as to the propriety of doing so; but as we cannot finish it by
sitting late, and thereby exhausting ourselves, this is the hest
time for adjourninz.
Davidson stood up and addressed the Court—" My Lord,
as I have been taken by surprise, I am quite unprepared
with my witnesses. I hope you will allow my wife to see me
this night, that notice may be given them to attend."
Mr. Baton Gaststow:—The Court has no power to make any
order on the subject you have mentioned ; 'but I can say that
care will he taken that any proper person may be admitted to
you for any proper purpose.
The Court then adjourned. Davidson took notes during
the day, and frequently seat communications to his counsel.
lie conducts himself altogether with great composure and
propriety. He pays close attention, and writes and speaks
without effort or confusion. Timid seems to have perfect self-
possession, but a flush that occasionally animates his face in-
dicates some hurry and eagerness of mind.
