THE EVENING STAR.

LONDON.

SATURDAY, JULY 24.

DISSOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT.

The Parliament will certainly be dissolved this evening.
Our Readers may regard that event as having absolutely
taken place, although the Proclamations for that purpose
have not yet been issued. In the mean time, the Writs
to a New Parliament are preparing, and will be sent off
this evening and to-morrow.

Since writing the above, we have been supplied with
the following official announcement :
BY THE KING.
A PROCLMATION,

Ft.)lt DISSOLVING. PARLIAMENT, AND DECLARING
THE CALLING OF ANOTHER.

WILLIAm R.

Whereas, we have thought fit, by and with the
advice of our Privy Council, to Dissolve this present
Parliament.—We do for that end publish tins our Royal
Proclamation ; and do hereby Dissolve the said Parlia-
ment accordingly ; and the Lords Spiritual and Tem-
poral, and the Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses, and the
Commissioners for Shires andßurglis of the House of Com-
mons, are discharged from their meeting and attendance
And we being desirous and resolved, as soon as may be,
to meet our people, and to have their advice in Parlia-
ment, do hereby make known to all our loving sub-
Jecti our Royal will and pleasure to call a New
Parliament. And do hereby further declare, that
with the advice of our Privy Council, We have given
orders, that our Chancellor of that part of our
United Kingdom called Great Britain, and our Chancellor
of Ireland, do respecti'vely, upon notice thereof, forthwith
issue out writs in due form, and according to law, for call-
ing a New Parliament : And we do hereby also, by this
oar Royal Proclamation, under our Great Seal of our Uni-
ed Kingdom, require writs forthwith to be issued accord-
ingly by our said Chancellors respectively, for causing the
lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, who are to
serve in the said Parliament to be duly returned to
:Ind give their attendance in our said Parliament ;
which Writs are to be returnable on Tuesday, the
fourteenth day of September next.

Given at our Court at St. James's, the twenty-fourth day of
July, One Thousand Eight Hundred and Thirty, in the
First Year of our Reign.
GOD SAVE THE KING !

A similar Proclamation was issued for the Scotch Peers
to meet at Hoiyrood House, Edinburgh, on Thursday the
second day of September, for the Election of Sixteen
Peers of Scotland, to sit in the House of Peers in the
Now Parliament.

We have the Government Gazette of Caraccas to the
ICtli June. Venezuela was fully organized as an inde-
pendent State ; and there appeared no prospect of the
New Government of Bogota being able to reclaim it.
Tiv. Congress retained General PA EZ, as her Civil and
ilitary Chief ; and the Official Gazette of the 4th of '
June contains his first Message to the Congress, dated
fi om his head-quarters at San Carlos, the 30th April.
The documents relative to the new organization are nu-
merous and voluminous ; but from them may be inferred
that the separation of this province from Colombia is
final.

We hare letters from Madrid to the 10th inst. The
system of 'opposition pursued in France bad produced a
strong feeling there, amongst the people ; at the same
time that it had created great alarm in the Government.
The Council of Castile, always distinguished for its ha-
tred of liberal opinions, had delivered the project of a law
to the KING which it considered necessary under existing
circumstances. The following are the most important pas-
sages of the Address :—SIRE— Our devotion to your Mx-

JESTY, whose interests and whose glory have always been
so dear to us, puts us boyead the reach of suspicion.
—ln addressing you with freedom, we believe that we
are rendering you an important service ; for when we
reflect on the course of affairs in France, it appears that
we shall be the first exposed to the fury of the revolu-
tionary faction, and your MAJESTY will soon feel that
France, once assured of her triumph, will seek to extend
it to the Peninsula. SIRE-It is necessary to find the
means of arresting the danger which threatens us ; and
by seconding the public wish, ensure the loyalty of the
people, otherwise some fatal consequences may be feared.
We know of no other mode of attaining these ends,
than the one explained in the law project, which we have
the honour to lay before your MAJESTY, with that
respect with which you always inspire us.—This law
comprehends the total oblivion of all political offences,
recals home the emigrants, and provides for the convo-
cation of the Cortes Estamentas.

We conceive there has never been a Speech delivered
from the Throne of this kingdom, which has afforded
such universal satisfaction, as that delivered yesterday by
his MAJESTY. The language of the Speech is con-
siderate and decided ; the sentiments it conveys are ap-
propriate and dignified ; and the general character of the
whole, is that of manly and unambiguous sincerity. The
manner in which it was delivered, was emphatically im-
pressive ; and his MAJESTY must be no inadequate
actor, if it did not, in every sentence, come forth with the
full sanction of the heart of the Royal orator.
It is impossible for any Monarch to receive, more uni-
versally, the popular gratulation, than what were called
forth yesterday on his MAJESTY'S passage to and from
the House. It may truly be said, in the language of his
profession, that he starts on the voyage of patriotism,
with a fair and enlivening breeze. In our humble
opinion, the earliest acts of his reign most richly merit the
popular favour he has obtained.
The restitution of Sir ROBERT WILSON to his rank,
is a wise, and what is better, but not always the same, a
good act. The public mark, too, with great interest and
satisfaction, the promotion of Veterans in the late
Gazettes ; who appear to be selected, not from family in-
terest, but from their services to the country. It is
pleasing to see the hero of Acre once more among us—
once more in the way ofenjoying a little sun-shine ; and,
what is better, still ready and able to fly to the first con-
flict where his ability and valour may be made available
to his country's glory.

There is still another individual in the shade—a dii
tinguished character in the profession, supposed more pe-
culiarly sure of His MAJESTY'S protection.—There is
still in exile, or comparative obscurity, a naval hero
whose professional talent and courage is undoubted;
and whose allegiance and services his country can-
not spare. On considering his case, we are sure
the verdict of unbiassed men must be, that he has suffered
under an inexpedient, and unjust severity. We cannot
but. hope, and anticipate, that some future Gazette will
announce the restoration of Admiral Lord Coon RANE to
the service of his KING and country.

We oberve, from our City CORRESPONDENT'S COM-
gunication, that some conceive an expression of the
peech, to look a little towards the possibility of inter-
national differences, arising from the affairs of Greece and
Algiers. There is a paragraph, undoubtedly, which
alludes to " the settlement of matters, which remain to
be finally arranged." That there are such matters, cannot
be denied ; and his MAJESTY only expresses, in alluding
to them, what was known, accompanied by the expres-
sion of natural confidence, that the good understanding
which prevails on subjects of common interest, will in-
sure their satisfactory settlement.
The City criticism on this Speech fully shows, what an
important declaration a KING'S Speech is in this country;
and how every sentence has to undergo not only a micro-
scopic scrutiny, but to be subjected to examination through
media of a most distorting tendency. How essential,
then, it is, that every syllable be well considered ; and
that nothing be uttered but what his MAJESTY, and his
advisers, unitedly consider, as just communicating what
is wanted and necessary—and no more.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
We are again without any arrivals this moring of the
least importance, consequently we have a great dearth of
information.

His MAJESTY'S Speech is, in general, thought to be
the best production for a tenth of time past ; but the
speculators are anxious for an explanation of one part of
the Speech, which is supposed to allude to Greece and
Algiers-
An express has arrived from Paris, but the contents
have not as yet transpired.
Consols opened at the same price as yesterday, 921 j
for the account, and soon after were done at 92j, at
present may be quoted 92j..
In the foreign market no business doing as yet.
The King of Prussia has sent a present to the King
of the Sandwich Wands, a full uniform dress of the
first regiment of guards, with the insignia of the order
of the black eagle, in return of a military cloak covered
with feathers.

We have received New York papers, one day later, to
the 2d July, at the Math and South American Coffee-
house, by the London Line of packet ship, Haxibal, that
paper says :—We have the Caracas Gazette to the 16th
of June. Venezuela is fully organized as an independent
state ; and her Congress have retained Gen. Paez as her
civil and military Chief. His Message to the Congress
is cpntained in the Official Gazette of the 4th June, and
dated Head-quarters, San Carlos. By an arrival at
Salem, from the River Plate, they give accounts of a
fresh commotion in the New States of Montevedio. The
Governor rteigned ; and Gen. Lavelle was to 611 his
place ; but Gen. Rondesent a protest against the de-
cree of the House, declaring his resignation.
CITY, H.ILP-PAST ONE.
Nothing has as yet transpired in regard to the express
from Paris, as it is supposed it only brings the prices of
the French Funds. Consols continue steady, to the pre-
sent. hour, at 92f for the account, with little or no
boohoos doing.
The Foreign Market is also in a stagnant state.
The Share Market is at a stand. South Metropolitan
Gas, 2ii premium ; Phenix, 7 premium.
