GRAND FMB AT Canros-Housa..--Further Pan
ticnlars.—Besides the principal branches of the Royal
Family, there was present a very numerous awn-
blage of the Nobility, persons of distinction, the di:-
feient military Officers now in England, who have
served under his Grace the Duke of WELLINGTON in
the Peninsula, and other Officers, amounting in the
whole to between eighteen bundled and two thousand
—there were about 2.500 invited. The Queue, and
Princesses AUGUSTA and MARY, arrived in their
chairs exactly at ten o'clock, attended by a party
of the yeomen of the guard and footmen with flam-
beaus ; they entered by the garden from the Park.
—About half an hour after the arrival of the Royal
party, they entered the polygon-room, the Queen
leaning cn the PRINCE Rstotar's right arm. The
Prince's Band, in their fill dress, p.ayea in the or-
chestra during the Royal promenade. When this
Band left the orchestra, a very numerous band for
country dances took their place, and dancing com-
menced. The first dance Was" MissJohnstina,'Fwhich
was led off by Princess MART and the Prince of SAES
Cosoutto, who also led off the two following glances
to a waltz-medley, and " General Kutuseff."—
A little belore two o'clock, the company retired to
supper. The Royal party supped in the new rooms
which were erected to receive the Emperor of Rus.
SIA and King of Penns*, where the cloth was laid
for 120. After supper dancing recommenced ; the
first dance was led off by Princess MAR! and tl-m
Duke of DevoNsinne, the tune of Forders vows d lacer,
Mademoiselle ? The Qualm and PRINCESSES tt ithdrew
about half past four; the company had ant all ree
tired till past six.
The PRINCE Ream., soon pfaer the. rising of Pax.
,liament, is expected to make* toUr.through,tlfell
of England.
'The Russiar.s, in their route home from Framer
have made large purchases, particularly i r G.rrmanys.
At Leip,ic one Cossack Lid out 1000 dollars on pate

Some of our contemporaries will have it that this
elements ()fa new revolution are organizing in France,
and acts of infatuation, or drunkenness,. of particular
corps, are urged as the procts. An °comelier 4
Nemour., about a fortnignt ago, is given as in point.
Some officers and men, at a rrovinciestatiNt, in a
tit of extravagance, agreed to raise the standard of
BONAPARTZ, and march t+ Paris. The officers, how-
ever, quickly perceived their folly, and etterepted to
restrain the men, many of whom mutinied against
them, and proceeded even to the shedding of blood.
Marshal °tremor, who was at th it moment at Paris,
no sooner received information cf it, than he went
down, and hanged or shot three of the ringleaders.
The Ktao was inclined to have pardoned m ; but
the Marshal, perhaps, judged snore properly in ad-
vising their instant execution. Thus did these three
poor fellows lose t!.eir lives, because an infinitely
greater villain than either of them is suffered to retain .
his life. May they be the last sacrifices in so mad
and disgraceful a cause !
The dwelling house, nut houses, and stables of
Captain Murrell, at Durham House, Bucks, were
burnt down on Sunday evening, through the negli-
gence of a servant, who left a candle burning in the
litter while he went to sleep. Six horses were with
difficulty saved.
Mvanta.--.A farmer in the neighbourhood of Tul. s
lamore, Philip CI only, acconipanied by two young
men, his sons, was, about one o'clock on the morning
of the 12th inst. on his way homewards, returnieg
(rem a fair held in the neighbourhood the precediug
day. Ile had not, however, proceeded many yards -
from tEi house, in which he had been, when he was
met by a band of villains ; one of whom tipped him
on the shoulder with his left hand ; and, on the
unsuspeaing man's turning round. thinking some
one wished to speak to him, struck him with a stone,
+which he held in bis right hand, and felled him to
the ground. The dastardly deed was seconded by
his associates, some of whom continued to assail their
now helpless victim, while others attacked the two
youths • of these, the one fortunately escaped with-
', out much injury ; but the other was so much bruised,
that he now lies in the County Infirmary, with little
hopes of recovery. The lather expired on being car-
ried into the house of a surgeon.
An accident, attended by very distressing cows-
quences, happened to the Limerick day coach on
Sunday morning. On turning from the Circular-
road to the Naas-road, the pole broke. The driver
at this moment leaped from the box and fell, and the
coach upset on him, the protecting bulk of the horse
alone saving him from being crushed to death. He
had his arm broken, and received a severe contusion
on the hip. Cornet Palmer, of the 23d Dragons%
had his leg broken a little above the instep ; but is
