LONDON JOURNALS.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.

[Morning Chronic:l,e.]
E QUEEN.
Mit yerterdiry received the following Letter
from an English Gentleman at Geneva :--

" Gentva, ifisz/ 17, 1820.
"The QUEEN arrived here on Tuesday last, coming by the
tilont Cenis to Charubery, and thence by Aix and Rumilly to
this place. Her MAYESTY is lodged at the Hotel l'Ecu de Ge-
neve, Wlicre she intends to remain till the return of a Courier
sent to Mr. Illitalionam On her arrival herr.
" Her Majesty is leading a most retired and regular life ;
she rises early, and is in bed generally before eleven ; hee
dinner hour is at two, after which she tidies an airing on the
and Tetifrus at fire to tea.
_ _

" titer 'Majesty was cod:sled at Milan seseral days by in-
disposition, but i. now in the best heatth and spirits; she has
been induced to travel with less expedition than usual, fol-
lowi,.g the advice of her Physicians.

41 On Friday, as the Queen enteted her carriage to take
her ac' CttstOtned ride. she was informed of the death nt the
D'acliess- of Yotk ; it so affected tier, that she Was obliged t.

return to her chamber in evident distress.

" From the Authorities of the King of Sardinia her Ma.
jesty received the greatest attention. Though she expressed
a desire to keep the strictest list:opal°, they insisted upon
psuviding•hef Majesty with an escort of carabiniers through-
out the Sardinian dominions.

" The QUeell has dismissed bet ICIHan Court, and with the
exception of her Maids and Footmen, has merely with her
M. de Bergaroi, her Chamberlain, an Equerry, and her l'ii-
vate Secretary, who is an English Gentleman. Mr. Wm.
Austin, vrhow her Majesty took under her protection while
a child, is now a very flue young man, and accompanies her
Majesty to Eng!and, where she intends to place him at
Colle

" A great deal of jealousy has been entited in Italy, and
stories have found their way to England relative to the exalt-
ation of NI. de Dergaini by her Majesty from the situation of
Courier to Coaroberlain, front apparently nothing to that of a
Baron covered with orders. But it is said that these decora-
tions he gained by his bravery with the French army in the
campaign in Russia and elsewhere; and besides the high re-
commendatioa the Queen received with him, she says that
she found Iris family was of respectability, and she has lost
Jul occasion to reward his, for six years of tried services. He
leaves her Majesty next week to join his sisters at Bologna.
" nn receipt of dispatches front England the Queen will
ett out immediately for Ostend, taking the route by Lausanne
to Carlsruluit and so on to lirtiarlles.

" Calafs, illey 40, 1620.

" Lady Anne Hamilton arrived tiers on Monday last. and
every arrangement has already been wade for the Queen's
reception at the Hotel Dessin. A considerable part of the
loyal baggage bas been forwarded to Dover. It is really la•
mentable, or, perhaps, I should rather say ludicrous, konh.
serve the effect produtani by the anticipated presence of her
Majesty, veren upon the humblest sun& attached to the Fo-
reign Depnrtntent. The Du itish Consul at this port quitted
the town the instant certain advices of her blajestya's advance
were received; of course this precipitate tetreat woks solely
influenced by the ettnsidetate wish to avoid the painful Out),
of declining to render any local services, within the capacity
of his situ :lion as Consul, durib's her Majesty's ewhatkation
for England,

" M. D'Escalone, Cumniissary-General of Police, at this
place, has been removed. His loss will be sensibly regretted,
not only by the inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood,
particularly the poorer class, but by every English traveller
who has experienced his invariable civility and attention
slUring the last four years.

" flie instant the Queen of England arrives here, you shall
leave the earliest communication."

The following is an Extract of 1 Letter, dated
Cadiz, May 5 :

" I do not know when Cadiz will cease being the theatre
of misfortunes. The 2il instant had been chosen for a bril-
liant But! Feast, the proceeds of which entertainment were
to be presented to the brave soldiers belonging to General
Quiroga's corps in La Isla, to whom such a large portion of
the gratitude of their fellow-countrymen is due. A more nu-
merous aud splendid concourse never before decked our Am-
lehitheatre: all seemed to partake in the glorious motive
which bad bron?rtit them together, and this gaiety was en-
hanced by the prospect of excellent spurt. Thethird bull bad
already rushed into the arena, and all eyes were fixed on the
combatants realty to procceki to the attack, when from one
side of the building dreadful screams were heard, and a num-
ber of people were seen to have sunk down by the breaking
in of some of the rafters. This circumstance created the
greatest confusion, and further injury was done by the spec-
tators hurrying away. Numbers have had their arms and
leas broken, besides other severe accidents, hut I have not
yet learnt how many have died. The Surveyors hare been
arrested, they being responsible for the state of the build-
