Thtuugh the Right Hon. the Earl of Glasgow, the Kil
winning Archers have presented his Majesty with an offer
of their services, in the event of his Majesty's visit to this
part of the kingdom. Sir Robert Peel, in reply, stated,
" that should his Majesty be enabled to visit the western
parts of Scotland, he will gladly accept the services of which
they make him a tender."—Glasgow Chronicle.
The Hon. East India Company, to evince their respect
for his Majesty, have ordered their regiment of volunteers
to be under arms on the 9th inst. The Hon. Artillery Com-
pany have also received orders to the same effect. The ne-
cessity of lining the streets with soldiers, and of erecting
strong barricades at the different points of ingress to the
line of procession is, indeed, on this occasion •-teculiarly
requisite, since, from the magnitude and splendour of the
cavalcade, and the great popularity of his Majesty, there
will be the greatest concourse of spectators ever known in
the metropolis.

A serious disturbance took place on Monday night after
the King quitted Covent-garden Theatre. The Royal party,
on leering the Theatre, were saluted with cries of " Down
with the police ! No police !" and those cries were repeated
until the cavalcade arrived at St. James's Palace. On re-
turning through Leicester-square, the mob, which exceeded
1,000 in number, again raised the cry of " Down with the
new police ! " Some of that body here interfered, and
begged the crowd to disperse. Finding, however, that their
persuasions were of no avail, they attempted to take some
persons into custody, and a general riot then took place.
Several men on both sides were, we understand, severely
injured ; and several of the mob were apprehended and locked
up in the station-house.
On the return of the Royal cavalcade yesterday, a con-
siderable crowd assembled at the bottom of St. James's.
street, in the front of the Palace. Here a pickpocket was
caught exercising his vocation, and seized by the police, a
few of whom were proceeding with their prisoner to the
station-house, when one of them was struck by a stone. The
fellow who throw the steno was also captured, and about 15
or 16 of the police set off with their two prisoners up St.
James's-street, on their way to the station in Little Vino-street,
Swallow-street, followed by a mob of five hundred or six
hundred persons hooting and yelling. Tho policemen
were compelled to fight every inch of their way until
they reached the bottom of Old Bond-street,where the opposi-
tion to their further progress became so formidable that they
were compelled to take shelter with their prisoners in two
houses, one on each side of the street, the windows of %hick
were quickly demolished. A reinforcement of police having
arrived, several of the most disorderly of the mob were taken
into custody, and carried to the station-house ; and a piquet
of the Foot Guards marching up immediately afterwards.
order was completely restored. When the military came up,
the mob received them as friends, and cheered them most
uproariously. This little apire produced no trifling sensa-
tion in the neighbourhood. The shopkeepers closed their
windows, and timid people seemed to view it as the com-
mencement of a revolution.
Monday evening a meeting was held at the White Hart
Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, of the delegates of the different
benefit societies, who are anxious to greet their Majesties
on their visit to the City on Lord Mayor's Day. Mr. Ma-
chin took the chair, and stated that a deputation of the com-
mittee of management had waited upon the court of alder-
men, for their approval of the regulations drawn up by the
committee, for the guidance of the societies on the 9th of
November, and that the court had been pleased to approve
of them. It was determined that no inscriptions should be al-
lowed to appear on the occasion, but such as were appropri-
ate, loyal and emblematical of the institution to which they be-
longed; and that none should be allowed of a political nature.
Mr. Brown said, that as one of the committee of manage-
ment, be waited upon the society of shipwrights. who ex-
pressed their regret at not being able to join the procession
on their Majesty's visit, owing to the very depressed state
of their trade for many years past; and sincerely hoped that
their absence =not be construed into a want of loyalty..
Several of the tea made returns of the members of
their bodies likely to attend It was generally believed that
6,000 weuld muster on the occasion. 'rho commit"e of
