MK MAJESTY has always feparated his concern as a 4
State of the Empire from thofe of his Crown; this
1 diftinAion (he adds) was always recognifed both by
the Germanic Body and by France, during the la%
war; and alfo in the unties of Campo Formio and
Luneville." Thefe reprefentstions conclude with
bcfeeching the Cm:tidal Minißers, to procure front
their Courts, without delay, the necefary inane-
%ions to come to a fpeedy dean on fo important
an objea I but there is stanch rcafon to doubt the ex-
ertion of this promptitude, at a moment when the
Diet, notwithilanding the contrary invitation of one
of the principal powers of the Continent, is about
to pars over in (deuce the French expedition to
the Right Bank of the Rhine in March lea.—

the evening of the ,6th, at the Prufnut Water's.,

the more, if it be true, as is pofitivdy Rated, that
the Emperor Aaexanon has itatsiefeed in it, and
has thereby mulled his former refolutions.

Mr. Lasoata—A very lerious accident happened
to Mr. Lagoa's, at the Opera Houle on Saturday
night. In the Divertiffemcnt, the tendon d'Aehilk
was broken by an extraordinary exertion, and he fell
upon the page. The pain was excruciating, and his
groans were dininaly heard in every part of the
Houfe. The other performers innantly crowded
round him, and Mr. D'Eovi st.a carried him off the
Rage. Madame Lagoa's, had, for the firft time,
gone to the Gallery, to fee her hufband dance, and
was a fpatator of this unfortunate fcene. From the
nature of the accident it is probable that.Monfieur
Laaoat& will never be able to follow his profeffion,
except as a teacher.
On Saturday ha a fele& party of dillinguiflted

the company were, the Dockers of Diana snots,

party let out from Devonfhire-houfe. Piccadilly, about
three o'clock in the afternoon in the Duchefes car-
riage and four, followed by a barooche and four,
Lord OSSULSTON'S curricle, dc. &c. The carriages
were driven to Privy Gardens, where the party
alighted, and went on board a beautifully. painted
twelve oared barge, moored off Whitehall (taws. This
elegant pleafure boat, belonging to the Admiralty,
was followed by another, in which were the Duke of
York's excellent military band, who played from the
time of embarking until the company landed at Rich-
mond. In palling the Palace at Kew, where the
Royal Family then were, the mufic played God few
the King, Rate Britameia, and many other popular airs
followed. The debarkation took place about half
after fix o'clock. The company immediately on
landing were efcorted by Lord Ossotsvon (who had
the honour of fuperintending the excurfon) to the
Dank Inn, where a sumptuous dinner, confining of
two courfes, with 27 covers to each, was ferved up in
the fit* ftyle, about half an hour after their arrival.
The dinner took place in the ball-room. The flnenefs
of the evening rendered the profped delightfully plea-
(ant. During the time the company fat at table, the
mulic played many charming pieces, appropriate tb
the occafion. About eight o'clock the party took a
little excurtion, and about half after nine re-embarked
and landed at Cbifwick, where their carriages were
ordered to meet them, to convey them to town. The
whole arrived about half after eleven at Devonfkire
Houfe. Soon after twelve the Duellers gave an de-
fiant (upper, which was attended by the above per.
tons of diflindion, together with Gen. Karrosr and

I:aft • Tuefday morning, Captain BARBER, the
tomitatiding Officer of the Duke of Cumberland's
Sharp Shooters Corps, attended at this Office, and
exhibited a complaint againti the keeper of the turn-
pike gate, at the top of Tottenham Court-road, for
exaaing toll from him, when marching at the head
of his corps, contrary to an AA of Pailiament ; Mr.
Boao,the Sitting Magidrate, agreeing with the Cap-
tain, that the, e was good ground for complaint, And
knowing Mr. HANDLEY, the leiree, to be a refpata-
hle man, fent him a note, requetting his attending
at the Office, on Friday evening. At the appointed
dine the parties attended.
Captain B produced the Aft of Parliament
upon which he grounded his complaint ; it was
brought into Parliament by Mr. ADDINGTON a fhort
time previous to the clofe of his Adminifiration, and
taken up by Mr. PITT, with louse alterations, and
lately paled. It is entitled, " An Aft to confolidate
and Amend the Provifions of feveral Adts of Parlia-
ment, relating to Volunteers in Great Britain."—
The Claufe applicable to the pietist cafe Rates,
" That any Field or Staff Officer, in going to or re•
turning from any place of exercife, mounted, and in
uniform, fhould not be liable to pay toll at any turn-
pike gate."
The Captain then Rated, the Corps which he had
the honour to command, went on the Rift Sunday in
every month to (hoot at a target at Chalk Farm, and,
that he had paled through turnpike gates without
any interruption till the fiat Sunday in the relent]
month, when he was returning from Chalk Farm, ati
the head of his Corps, along the Hampßead Road,
and when he came to the toll gate, at the top of
Tottenham Court.road, Mr. HANDLEY was attending I
at it, and demanded toll ; the Captain informed him
he was not liable to pay, in confequence of an AA
of Parliament having lately paled, which exonerat-
ed him.
Mr. HANDLEY replied, he had heard of the AA,
but bad great doubts about it ; and that he fhotild
not pats without paying the toll, and that the gate,'
which prevented the Corps, as well as the Captain,l
from proceeding on their march, and the Captain was
at length obliged to comply, and paid him three half
pence. The Duke of CUMEICLAND only patronifttsl
this corps, and has nothing to do with the command,'
that being folely vetted in Captain B who Rat-
ed, that he bad taken Counters opinion as to his be-
ing a Field Officer, who was decidedly of opinion he
is one. Mr. BOND and Sir %Victuals Peanuts agreed
in this opinion, and farther contended, that even a
Corporal, in uniform, and mounted, who had a I
command, was a Field Officer for the time. Mr.
Hoarse decidedly differed from his brother Magif-
crates, and gave it as his opinion, that no officer of a
lower rank than a Major is a Field Officer, anu de.
flied that Commander and Field Officer were fynoni-
mous terms, and laid, he fuppofed the numbers of
this corps were not fufficient to entitle the Commas.
der to any higher rank than Captain. To which
Captain B. replied, the numbers are one hundred and
twenty, and he had no doubt, if be applied fora
higher rank, he fhould obtain it; but thought the pre-
fent rank he had the honour to hold, fufficient for all

purpotes.
Ihe majority of Magiftrates being of opinion that
Captain &Raga was exempted from toll, determined
that Mr. HaroLsY mould return the three halfpence,
and fay, he was lorry for what he had done—with
both of which Mr. HANDLIv refufed to comply. The
Magiftrates then found themfelves in a very difficult
fituation, for on examining the AR, it was difeover-
ed that the framer of the ?at had omitted to infert
any pubilhment to the gate-keeper who lhould re-
fute to comply with the exemption. Mr. Hallot.sy
was, therefore, of courfe, difcharged. Captain Bea-
sts pledged himfelf not to let the queftion Tell, as
he conlidered the corps as much an ellablifhed regi-
ment as any of the regulars under the Government.
He would therefore indiß Mr. HANDLIY for obllruß•
ing the marching of the King's troops, and would
likewife bring an allion againft him for taking the
toll, for the purpofe of try ing the queftion of exemption.
