His MAJZSTY arrived at Holyrood House, from,
I Dalkeith, about two o'clock, and shortly after, all
the necessary arrangements being made, entered his
Stage carriage, attended by the Duke of Donsrr
and Lord GLENLYON. His MASESTY was dressed in
a Field-Marshal's uniform, as on the day of the Draw-

i Order of the Thistle. The Procession then moved
off amidst the reiterated cheers of the people, the'
b.snd playing "GOD :eve the King."
The subjoined copy of the Gazette Eriraordinary,

Four State tiumpeteis were next, after whom came
Isla Herald, with Cat rick and Kintyre, Pursuivants
on each side of him, ail properly habited in their ta-
bards, and mounted. The Usher of the White Rod,
with his attendants on each side, followed Isla. He
bore his rod of office, and wore his official collar and
medals. The rod is of silver, about two feet long,
and ornamented with gold enamelling, surmounted
by a beautifully executed figure of the Unicorn of
Scotland. He was followed by Lord Lyon, King of
Arms, attended by a groom on each side. The grooms
wore white surtouts, with red collars and cuffs, and
red caps. Lord Lyon was most superbly dressed, in
an excee,:ingly long mantle of crimson velvet, lined
throughcut with white silk. Under the mantle he
wore a green velvet surcoat, edged with a broad band
of gold ; white pantaloons 14 ith a gold stripe; and on
his head he bole his crown of gold, with a cap of
crimson velvet, and a border of ermine; in his hand
he held his baton of office, of green enamel, flowered
with golden thistles; he wore his collar and badge.
His horse was an Arabian, which seemed destined for
exhibiting in so splendid a procession. The Earl of
KINNOUI, is Lord Lyon.
After the Lord Lyon, the procession varied a little
from the order mentioned in the Gazelle. The Con-
stable's Esquires followed the Lyon ; they were
dressed as we de,,ciibed them on the former occa-
sion. The ancient mace of the Lord High Chan-
cellor of Scotland, now used in the Exchequer, was
borne next after the two maces of the Court of Ses-
sion. Six grooms, attendants on the Sword of State,
dressed dark liverie,, laced, with cocked hats, and
plumes. 'file Sword of State, borne by the Earl of
Moluros, dressed in I.:s Lord Lieutenant's uniform,

was a remarkable fine one. Macers, pages, and
Esquires, followed. The Si.eptre was canied by the
Hon. JOHN MORTON STUART--not .by Lord F. L.
Gowea. as mentiowd its the G4zette. Mr. STUART
was dressed in green, widi tartan trews, and beauti-
ful dill; and other appendages. His horse was fur-
nished with a sideadid lamelnke saddle and bridle,'
richly einhroidered Stith gold on blue velvet. llis
whole equipment was remarkultly good. Other
tracers, grooms, and mounted Esquires, followed
Mr. STUART. The Crown was carried by the Duke
of HAMILTON, in right of his ancient Earldom of
Angus. His Grace was dressed in a black satin dress
of the age of Cu LEI the FIRST, slashed with white,
and a rich lace Vandyke collar over his shoulders.—
A groom attended on each side to hold his horse. He
bole the Crown on the crimson velvet cushion, which
was found when the Regalia were discovered. The
air and appe:u mice of his Grace wet e full of dignity :
he was repeatedly cheered as he advanced with the
Crown, which he occasionally held up in such a po-
sition as to be fully seen by the assembled multitude,
who hailed this diadem of their ancient Sovereigns
with loud acclamations. One of the KING'S carriages
then followed, drawii by six horses, after which came
a party of the Scotch Gieys. The Yeomen of the

fled by the thunder of artillery vhich roared from
the battlements, and the sound of which was revel-
berated with tremendous echoes from the Calton-hill,
Salisbury Crags, -Leith Fort, and the ships in the
harbour. The KING repeatedly took off his hat while
on the platform, and waved it to the people, who re-
turned, with acclamations, this mark of the Royal
condescension. Although there was a momentary
clearness in the atmosphere while the KING was on
the platform, yet the rain soon fell in torrents, and
his MAJESTY refused for a time the solicitation of his
attendants to take shelter. He said the prospect,
even with the bad weather, was astonishing; and that
he should wear his hat to prevent cold.
After descending from the platform his MAJESTY
returned to his carriage, and drove to the Lieutenant-
Governor's house, where a collation had been pre-
pared. His MAJESTY presently afterwards gut into
T carriage, and returned with the procession in the
'same array, through Bank-street, over the Earthen
Monad, along Prince's-street, Waterloo-place, and
die Calton, to Holyrood House.
This day his MAJESTY reviewed the troops on
Portobello Sands. The military spectacle was splen-
did, and the day remarkably fine. The whole of the
cavalry and yeomanry of the town and neighbour-
hood were on the sands, viz. the Edinburgh Yeo-
manry Cavalry, the 3d Regiment of Dragoon Guards,
the Glasgow, the Paisley and Greenock, the Berwick-
shire, the West Lothian, Dumfries, East Lothian,
Roxburgh, Perth, Fife, Forfar, Peebles and Selkirk,
and Mid-Lothian corps of Yeomanry Cavalry, with
those of some other counties. The Scots Greys
closed the line of troops. The KING, who was sur-
rounded by a numerous and splendid Staff, expressed
himself highly delighted at the appearance of the
corps on the ground. The crowds in attendance were
immense, and the line of carriages, filled with rank
and fashion, great beyond example on such an occa-
sion. The whole went off with only one or two
trifling accidents, from the unavoidable pressure of
the crowd among the horses.
FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. • I
EDINBURGH, THURSDAY EVENING.
I leave to your Correspondents more at leisure to
detail the ceremonies of this day ; mine must be the 1
task to give you some idea of the general effect of
the sublime scene. The morning was dark and rather
drizly, and the doubts and anxieties of the multi-
tude, as to the probability of the Procession taking
place,were visible in every face; but occasional blinks
of something like sunshine, induced the crowds to
hope• for the best, and accordingly the Trades began
'to muster, and, by and bye, numbers' of carriages
and well dressed parties ventured to bend their way
to the High-street, where all who could command a
friend or a penny had provided themselves with a
place where they could have a view of his MAJESTY.
Since the Procession of NARY—the unfortunate MANY,
nothing of the kind has ever taken place within this
capital of Caledonia ; and, as it was known that great
preparations had been made, great expectations, of,
course, were excited. The KING reached Holyrood
about one o'clock, and spent some time in viewing a
collection of paintings ; and about the time of the
several parts of the Procession being marshalled, the
State carriage drew up, and the Royal progress com-
menced. Unfortunately the rain commenced just
about the time of starting, which cast a sombre tint
over the whole, but nothing could damp the enthu-
siasm of the Scotch. It was a cheering hurrah that
greeted the Monarch when he left the Palace. It
diminished not during the progress, and, when be
reached the Castle Hill, near which we were placed,
it certainly made the welkin ring. The various parts
of the Procession had been so arranged as to give
it the effect of all that was grand and imposing ; but
it was not the glitter and shew that made the impres-
sion, even upon the lowest Scot—it was the appear-
ance.of Scotlatid's Crown •and Scotland's King that
roused the lion, and set all that was good and great
in their nature at work, to find meads of displaying
their love and their loyalty. The Crown, borne by

It was one of the finest sights in nature—the
myriads of spectatofs in all and every quarter, peep-
ing from every corner and embrazure. in the Castle,
and from every window and house top. The Kll4O,
from the effect of the haze, appeared much' laiger
than usual; conspicuous from altitude, and surrounded
with the turrets and battlements upon the rock, and
in a Castle the scene of so many great events eons
nected with his ancestors, waving hishat, and joining
in the cheers which all meant to do him honour, was
certainly an object of a nature calculated to make
an impression upon-the mind as well as the imagina-
tion ; and the awe, which seemed to pervade all, ranks,
was so poweiful, that, for a moment, the multitude
seemed unable to breathe, until, roused by the thunder
of the cannon, they were brought back to them-
selves, and returned with double force the greeting
of their KING.

The French Papers of Thursday and Friday have
reached us. They are chiefly filled with the proceed-
ings of the Court of Assize at Paris, in the affair of
Rochelle.

In consequence of the declared intention of• his
Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex to visit some of
his friends in the north of England, and of his ,ar-
rival at Cantley, near Doncaster, the seat of M. A.
TAYLOR, Esq. a Meeting of the Corporation of the
City of York was called by the LORD MAYOR, at
which it was determined to present his Royal High-
ness with the freedom of the city in a gold box, and
to request the honour of his company at a civic feast
in the Mansion-house, to celebrate that circumstance.
In pursuance of this resolution, the Sheriffs of the
city, M. STAPYLTON and M. Woon, Esqrs. waited
on his Royal Highness at Cantley, early in the last
week, with the following Address :
" May it please your Royal Highness—The Sheriffs of the
city of York are deputed by the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor
and Corporation, in Common Hall assembled, to express the
high gratification received from the expected arrival of your
Royal Highness in their ancient and independent city. It is
their anxious desire to offer you its freedom, and they humbly-
request that you will condescend to dine with them at the Man-
sion-house, on any day which may be most suitable to the cons.
AnliCtief: of your Royal Highness. ;
" The Sheriff cannot refrain front considering it a fortunate
circumstance, that during their Shrievalty, in conveying this
respectful homage and invitation, they have had the honour to
approach the presence of Prince who is so nearly r-siatcd to the
august Sovereign of these realms, and whose splendid cireer of
useful beneficence, scientific acquirement, and spirited,patriqtism,
gives a brilliant lustre to the exaltation of his Royal birth."
To this Address his Royal Highness returned the
following gracious answer :
" I beg leave to express the high sense I entertain of the'dis-
tinction which the ancient and independent city of York pro-
poses to confer upon me, and I shall have the greatest satisfac-
tion in accepting it. I will, with pleasure, meet the Corporation
on Monday next, a: dinner. I also beg to express my sense of
the very flattering and kind manner in which the wishes of the
Corporation have been conveyed to me by the Sheriffs."
Isis Royal Highness and suite left Cantley on Sa-
turday morning,. and passed through Doncaster
about eleven o'clock, on his way to York.

Thursday, at a General Meeting of the Institution
for the encouragement of the Fine Arts in Scotland,
the Earl of NVEMYSS in the Chair, it was unanimously
resolved that an Equestrian Statue, in bronze, &his
ausry, be procured, and that his MAJESTY be in-
vited to sit for this object to any Artist he may be
graciously pleased to name; and to appoint the place
where the statue ought to be erected in Edinburgh, in
order to commemorate, in the most lasting manner,
his MAJESTY'S auspicious visit to Scotland.
The company of English Comedians gave on Thurs-
day, at the, Theatre in the Rue Chantereine, a repre-
sentation of a little Comedy and a Melo-drama, which
passed off without any interruption. The audience
was, unfortunately, not very numerous. It must be
admitted, however, that the Actors, feeling them-
selves under no apprehension as to the intentions of',
the spectators, appeared to much greater advantage !
than on the former occasions, and there is reason' to
hope many persons, whom the fear of disorder kept
away, will no longer be restrained from going to
witness a new species of spectacle, which, if it were
only for its strangeness, is not without interest and.
entertainment.—French Paper. . . .
A Noble Duke having had occasion to call .on a
friend, left his horse in the care of a countryman, re-_
questing him to hold it, to which the countryman aa-
swered,—" Yes, Sir." A Gentleman passing at the
time, and hearing the contryman's answer, said—" My
good fellow, do you know that Gentleman is a Duke?
Yon should say ' your Grace,' not 4 Sir:" On the
Duke's return, he asked the countryman a que,tion,
who answered by saying—" For what I am going to
receive, may the Lord make me thankful !"

According to the usual course of French judicial
procedure, the Judge begins with interrogating the
prisoners an their admission •or denial of the facts
charged and puzzling them with an explanation of
inconsistencies, real or apparent, between their first
depositions on their private examination, and their
final answers in ptiblic court. In this case their task
was easy, as they confessed the falsehoods of their
first statement, and laid the blame of some of them
on General DESPINOIS, at whose dicta:ion they said
they had adopted them.
The tribunals of France, from that of Correctional
Police up to the Supreme Court of Cassation, seem
to be employed in deciding on political offences, and
prctecti4 the Government of the KING from iebel-
licaror diseurion. .We have now going yn, or un-
-finished;totir trials for conspiracy.; and when Brest,
Toulon, and the other places at which we heard of
disturbances at the beginning of the year, receive
• their. titte•,' the number will be nearly doubled.
Besides these sources of political security and pub-
lic amusement for. France,. the :correctional Judges
are_equally active and
.vigorous in. their way. On
Thursday last they condemned M3l. Jouy, ARNAI:LT,
JAL EMMAkUEL DUPATY, GOSSE, and CAUCMOIS
MAIRE,; Authors of the Miroirs des Spedades, and
LEPAGE, Edit Or-pf the Courier des Spedacles, to two
months' imprisonment and a fine of 500 francs each,
for covertly publishing political articles in theirJotlr-
nals without the Royal authority and the requi.:i:e
securities. In other words, their offence cr.nisted
deviating into a joke, good or bad, with a political
tendency, in works which, In m their announcement
and the mode of their registry, should be exclusively
devoted to the Drama or to Literature. Truly it
will be difficult, in such a state of the Press, to keep
out of prison.
It is said, in a letter dated Frankfort in one of
them, and in another article copied from a German
Paper in another, that the symptoms of a discon-
tented spirit, manifested in some divisions of the Rus-
sian army, had assumed a graver character than they
at first appeared to possess. The officers and sidiets
whose conduct chiefly attracted attention, had ex-
pressed no opinions hostile to the Goirernment which
they serve, but are suspected of being animated ssiti
sentiments too liberal for the subjects of an absolute
monarchy. They are principally to be found in the
regiments which were engaged in the campaigns cu
1814 and 1815, and more particularly in a division
which, under WORONZOFF, made part of the army cf
occupation. The great charge against them is, that
the soldiers as well as the officers begin to talk pu-
, litics, and to discuss public measures—an imperti-
, nence without example in Russia, and contrary
the passive character of Russian discipline. Nei-
flier the EMPEROR nor his Ministers should be sur-
prised at the conduct of the troops, or suppose t1...t
. ' they can arrest an inevitable consequence of their
own measures, by a severe punishment of their in-
• struments. If they send men to countries where [lcy
learn the novelties of freedom, when they tett:: n
. home they must expect that they will talk of them;
but there is no danger for some time of their Fro-
• clueing a great effect on the Don or the %Volga.
According to an article from Warsaw, the attaiis
of Spain interest the Russian Government much mole
than those of Turkey. It is said that the Congresi.

which is to open at Vi:nna, and thence to be trans-
ferred to Verona, will be finally removed to Milan,
where it is to await the result of the expedition against
Spain. This account, which first appeared in the
form of a private letter in the Journal des Debuts of
Wednesday, is severely commented upon by the Can-
stituilonnel of Thursday, who wishes to have it con-
sidered as a manifesto against the Spanish Con,titu-
tionalists. However, the latter, if we aie to believe
the Constitutionnel, will not be taken unprepared.—
The new Ministers are stated to have come to the
solution of employing, in the first place, an imposing
force, fur the purpose of crushing the insurrection;
and, in the next, of fo ming. an army on the iron-
' tiers, which will compel foreign Powers to respect

BAYONNE, AUGUST 17.
The Sieur Maillard, who had been 'condemned. to
death by a Council of War, and who appealed from
his sentence, obtained nothing by the, appeal. Two
companies proceeded this morning, at five o'clock, to
his prison, and conducted him to the glacis of the
forlificatiom At he marched to the plaie of execu-
tioo be.sang, u iliont4r pour so patrie est le sort le plus

eyes to be bound, declaring that a Frenchman never
feaiid 'death. Not !liming obtained permission to or-
der the soldiers to fire, he said with a firm voice to
the grenadiers, u Level at my heart !" TIC young
man died with great firmness. A Priest had passed
the night with him in the priion, and accompanied
him to the place of execution.

This forenoon ire received a Flanders Mail, bring-
ing Brussels Papers to the 24th inst. The following
are extracts • •

BRUSSELS, AUGUST 25.

From the frontiers of France we learn, that the
31st regiment of the line, of 1,840 men, has marched
from Douay for Strasburg ; the 2d of the line, of
1,884, has left. Calais to go to Colmar. It is ob-
served, that numerous troops are marching to Al-
sace, which gives rise to various conjectures.
The Court of Cessation at Berlin rejected, on the
14thinst. the appeal of Mr. Fonk the merchant, who is
condemned to death by the Court of Assizes of Treves.

Dutch Papers to the 25th instant reached us this
r.-A-7iiing. The Oriental Spectator, of Smyrna, re-
assests that the English Ambassador at the Court of
Pcrbia had. demanded his passport, and left the capi-
tal, with all the English Consuls.' There is a report
that the Janissaries have again committed great ex
ceases at SConstantinoPle. The last accounts from
Smyrna, of 7th July, say, that the Tusks are fortify-
ing themselves in the Island of Scio, and chit it is
the intention of the Porte to settle a Turkish popula-
tion; instead of the. Greeks who have been destroyed,
on that now *desolate, but fine and fertile island.

VIENNA, AUGUST 9.

It is now decided that the Congress will meet at
Verona. It appears certain that the King of Prussia
and Prince Hardenburg will be present at it.
An Order has just been published, which directs
that the Regiments of Infantry in Upper and Lower
Austria shall be raised to their full complements by
the end of September. This. Ordinance, which causes
some surprise, is mitigated by another Ordinance,
hich dispenses the Landwehr of these provinces
from the obligation of assembling by companies for
the autumnal exercise. However, the new conscripts,
who are now training, are to be exercised for three
weeks in the chief towns of the districts.

A letter from Constantinople of the 18th of July,
Ilas the follouing remarkable particulars :

" An insurrection was to have broken out here to-
wards the end of June. Its failure is chiefly owing
to Ibrahim Paella, who commands the Asiatic troops
at Bajukdere ; his prudence has kept the Asiatics to
their daty, and their Officers have solemnly promised
to oppose the projects of the Janissaries. A similar
reso:ution was taken by the Officers of the corps of
t 1.2 Pacha of Broussa, stationed on the opposite side
of the Channel. The refusal of these two corps to
join in the conspiracy and act with the Janissaries,
caused the discovery and the failure of the plans of
the conspirators. All the circumstances of the con-
s,ipiracy are kept very secret, so that it is impossible
at present to give any authentic account of it.

" lialeb Effendi continues to do his utmost to per-
suade the Sultan to retire into Asia Minor, there to
place himself at the head of an army whose Officers
shall be devoted to him, and thus to avoid at once
the menaces of the Janissaries and the ambition of
Ibrahim. The projected reforms in the corps of the
Janissaries will probably hasten the catastrophe which
threatens the Turkish Empire."
We learn that Prince Philip of Hesse Homburg is
dangerously ill at Naples.

We have received a Lisbon Mail, bringing Papers
to the 9th instant. The following are the only ar-
ticles of interest they contain:

LISBON. AUGUST s.

The Mario of the 6th contains a long official cor-
respondence, respecting the admission of the Portu-
vese Ambassador at the Court of Berlin.
The preamble states, that when the Court of Vienna,
and by its influence that of Naples and Turin, re-
used to receive the Minister from Portugal, nomi-
mated after the memorable 4th July, 1820, the Prus-
.f,ian Court refused passports to the Chevalier
who was on his way to Berlin as Charge d'Af-
hires from Portugal, informing him that he could
not be received till certain answers could be obtained
'join the Courts of Vienna and Petersburgh, whose
iiistevs at Berlin had spoken very deci.ively against
admitting him.
Our Government, in consequence, ordered M. de
o;iveira to go to Stockholm, and signified to the
Chevalier d'Olfers, Prussian Charge d'Affaires at
Lisbon, that his-functions were suspended.
Meantime, a parcel of books for M. d'Olfers ar-
riving from Hamburgh, he requested that they might
be d,:livered to him, duty-free, as usual. The order

to the Curott-house to deliver them was granted,
' but as it *was necessary to assign a reason for the
exemption, and. M. d'Olfers could not be said to be
entitled to it as Charge d'Affaires, it was stated in
the order that the books were to he delivered free,
because they were consigned to M. d'Olfers, .while
heexercised his functions. M. d'Olfers was offended
*at this, as a publication of the suspension of his func-
tions, wher6as his Court had merely signified ver-
bally to M. d'Oliveira to delay his journey, and he
made bitter compnitits to his Government.
The Government hiving received official notice
that his Prussian Majesty was ready to answer any
Minister whom our Court should think fit to send,
M. Silvester de Pinheiro Ferreira, Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs, communicated this in a Note to
M. d'Olfers, who thereupon requested a conference,
in which he demanded formal satisfaction for the
pretended offence, of the publication of the suspen-
sion of his functions, and an express declaration that
his Majesty's Government had formed an erroneous
and gratuitous opinion of the motives of the Prussian
Cabinet. From the official Notes, five in number, it
aptieats) that the satisfaction required by M. d'Olfers
not having been judged compatible With the dignity
of our Court, and consequently refused, he desired
his passports,• which were given him. The latest
,Note of M. de Ferreira is dated the Bth of July.
The Cortes, in the Sitting of the 7th and Bth of
August, discussed the additional Articles to the Con
stitution for the kingdom of Brazil (which have been
given at length in the STAR). Some Members wished
to adjourn the debate, which they thought useless
to long as it was uncertain whether Brazil would or
would not obey any laws that they might pass ; for
it seemed as if the inhabitants of that country were
resolved only to obey such Decrees of the Cortes as
they might approve. Most of the Articles were, how-
ever, approved of by the Cortes.

No news of consequence has been received from
Brazil. There have lately been several shocks of earth.
quakes felt in this city, but no damage has been done.

Every arrival from the Continent tends to give us
a clue to the objects of the approaching Congress.—
That the affairs of the Turks and Greeks will be but
a secondary consideration is evident from the manner
in which the Russian Journals prepare us for an in-
terference in the affairs of Spain, although they dry
not directly avow it. This will be particulatly ob-
served from an article in the Consen.ateur
of St. Petersburgh, brought us by a Hamburgh Mail
this forenoon. The following are extracts:
