The KING'S Speech, of which we gay, a correct copy
yesterday in the whole of our public+ti•.n, does not seem
to us to require any particular witice, either for what
it says, or for what it omits. The sin of oruks on
is chiefly erged against it; but a little con.ideration

ould chew that this charge could sot sand, as the
topics which properly come under this denomination,
such as the affairs of the Peninsola and the ultimate fate
of Greece,Ve still under discussion, and could not be
touched upon without a pernicious departure from esta•
blished custom. In the meantimr, the sentiments
of the pillsent Cabinet afford a pledge that the

foreign interests of the country will not suffer any
detriment under us guidance. With respect to what
the Speech promises. particularly on the subject of
economy in the management of the public money, as
well at of. retrenchment in the expenditure, we accept
the promise gratefully, but with the determination to
remind Ministers of it, should, contrary to our hopes,
their mem,,riei require to be refreshed.

In consequence of the expectation that his MAJICSTY
would yesterday prorogue the Parliament in persoa,arveralPeeresses
took their seats is the body of the House at an early hour, and a
great number of strangers were below the Bar, who were much
disappointed, as it was prorogued by Commission. There was bat
a thin attendance of Members of the House of Commons whets the
Loafs CSlANczu.os read the Speech.

We received this morning Hamburgh Papers to the
50th ult. They contain no news from Russia, and no
further allusion to the preparations of that Power in
favour of Greece. Under the bead of Warsaw, Bth
June, it is stated that the Tribunal of the Diet, which,
by a Decree of the 19th April, is directed to pass
sentence on the persons implicated in the late con-
spiracy, has already commenced its proceedings.._
The President of the Diet, having been a Member
of the Commission of Inquiry, is, during the con-
tinuance of these judicial proceedings, superseded
by the Senator and Waywode Count 13111LINSKI,
for the purpose of imparting to them a character
of impartiality. The Diet met for the first time on the
15th ult. and was addressed by the Minister of State,
Count SoaoLawstz in a speech, stating the reasons of
its being convened, and insisting en the necessity of
the proceedings. At the same time, he stated that it
was with deep regret that the EMPEROR ordered them
to be instituted, and that his MAJZsTY gave way alone
to a sense of duty, and to his desire to preserve the
principle's of social order. This mild and specious lan-
guage will no doubt be considered by many as a bad
omen for the accused, as it has in most instances of a
similar kind served as a cover for the most sanguinary
intentions. After this speech, a report of the Commis-
sion of Inquiry was read, from which, as far as it is
given (only the first part appearing, the remainder being
promised), it would appear that the offence, with which
the accused are charged, is of a very venial, or, as some
would say, of a very praiseworthy character. They
' are charged with having been members of a secret so-
ciety, established for the first time as far back as the
year 1814, under the highly obnoxious title of " Genuine
Poles." Its object was to diffuse " a national spirit;"
and though this was an unpardonable crime to a Rus-
sian, it was, we presume to think, no offence in a Pole.
However, as the former holds the scales of justice and
the sword in his bands, his interpretation will probably
prevail. Yet we would advise the Poles to be of good
heart, for, overclouded as their destinies are now, this
dense cloud may be dispersed. We can never per-
suade ourselves that so brave a nation, notwith-
standing the many disheartening circumstances of
its present situation, is doomed to perpetual bond-

age. Present appearances, we allow, are not fa-
vourable to the hope of seeing Poland restored to her
independence ; but it would be cowardly on that
account to despond, particularly as the first cannon,
which is fired in Europe, may bring about the very
event, that at this time appears to be all but imprac.
ticable. The following is a copy of the Report :

REPORT or Tut COICIOSSiON ST INIVIIIT, ADDICUBD TO THE
GRAND DEICE CONITAIITINT CCSAIRWITSCM, COUKADOCIAM.
CHM or THE POLISH ARMY.

At the end of the year 1914 there existed a secret Society, under
the name of Genuine Rtes: its object was to diffuse a national
spirit. Every member bound himself to engage other members,
and to observe secrecy. As an external mark of recognition,
they wore rings with the national colours, and a certain num-
ber of points, indicative of the number of the fundamental laws
of the Society, and with the cypher of the name of the Society.—
The Society, which never had more than twelve members, did not
succeed, and was dissolved i■ about a year, without leaving any
trace of its existence, but an awakened spirit of intrigue. Shortly
after, some minds were again interned by an incidental expression
of the late General of Cavalry,Dabroirsky, regretting that the brave
Palish nation had derived so little advantage to itself from its great
sacrifices,that the existence of the divided nation seemed less secured,
and that it were to be wished that the spirit of the Pules could be ex-
cited, and confidence in their own strength inspired,ln order without
regard to the difference of the Governments to which they were
now subject, to concentrate their whole efforts In favour of the
present Sovereign in the kingdom of Poland, and as circumstances

should offer, to preserve their independence, and the freedom to
submit to a King whom the peopl? might choose.
These expressions did not fail to make a considerable impression,
and were communicated at different times to Prince Antony
Jablonowaki, and also to Lieutenant-Colonels Krzyzanowski and
Pradzynski, and to several other persons, but they did not lead
to the formation of any particular Society for the prosecution of the
object, though the ideas hereby excited may have taken root, and
led the way to the subsequent secret Societies in Poland. •
In 1821, notwithstanding the closing of the freemasons lodges, a
suspicion arose of secret Societies, and the investigation which was
ordered to be made, clearly proved the existence of such a one un-
der the name of National Freemasonry, the form of which resem-
bled that of the freemasons' lodges. Major l,ukasinski, of the 4th
regiment of Infantry, who had already conceived plans fur a more
extensive secret Society, took the opportunity of the establishment of
this National Freemasonry, and accepted the dignity of Grand
Master. Without excluding other persons, he chiefly sought to en-
gage Civil and Military Meers, and the following was stared to be
the object of the Society—reciprocally to a'sist each other in all the
events of life, to labour fur the maintenance of the National charac-
ter, and to preserve the remembrance of the glorious deeds of the
Polish nation. Fur this reason they assumed for their motto, the
'lllustrious names Boleslaus. Chtobry, Hatorzamoyski, Ponlatowskl.
The Society had soon a considerable number of members, but as
It was without unity of sentiment and aetio and as Major Luke-
sinski had mited distrust by want of siricaity, and distonteet bi

his arbitrary proceedings, the members gratin:al), separated from it.
Lukasiotki, therefore, could not and in itbe Society itself an instru.
!bent for the attainment of objects different from those alleged, and
it was accordingly deflated dissolved at the beginning of 1820.
This date may he considered u the end of the national Fremasonry
among the military.
The Chapters of iiibe Society, *wetter, or rather the Secret

Committee, unknown to the members of it, 6tlll existed in full acti-
vity, and having thrown off the mask of freemasonry, pursued the
real object of the founder. A new Society was accordingly formed
IA 1821.

M. Von Isessnleeki, formerly a Polish Officer, having settled,
after he quitted the service, in the Grand Duchy of Posen, intro-
duced there the national Freemasonry, into which he had been
initiated at Warsaw; and this Society, after being dissolved in the
Kingdom of Poland, continued to exist in Posen till the year I aim
At the end of June that year a Colonel Pradzynaki was present
at a meeting in which Gen. Urninild was teceived. Szemaolecki
going soon after this to Warsaw, he was told that the Society was
dissolved in t►at city, and it would be well to do the same in Poland ;
to which he is said to have replied, that this could not be done, in-
, &slouch as by the influence of Pradzynski, the object and denomi-
nation of the Society were changed, and it was now called by the
name of the Scydseheurers.—(To be continued )

We also received this morning the Algesseixe Zeitung
to the 26th ult. and the Austrian Obsemer to the 22J.
The former contains no news of any sort, and the latter
has merely extracts horn the Greek Universal Gasette,
but all of old date, such as official notices of the
ap-
pointments oVount CAPO &ISTRIA, Lord COCHRANE,
and General CHURCH, the Decree respecting the third
Loan, Lord Cocnita rues Proclamation to the Samien•,
&c. It is rather strange that the Austrian Observer
has not yet said a word respecting the intentions
of the Allied Powers to interpose in the quarrel between
the Greeks and Turks. Though the caution of tliat
Paper in matters of this kind is proverbial, yet, as it
would be ridiculous, had such a design as we have just
mentioned been actually formed, and received the sanc.
Lion at the same time of the parties chiefly interested,

we cannot help looking upon the silence of that Paper
as a proof that either the plan of armed interference is
not ripe for execution, or that it meets with obstacles
in the Cabinet to which the Austrian Government
could probably afford a key, if it happened to be
in a complying mood. In the meantime, the
Turks are pursuing their successes with Uninterrupted
activity; and if the Dive ex ntachina promised to the
Greeks in the celebrated conferences at St. Petersburgh
does not speedily come to their aid, there is reason
to apprehend that the game will soon be up with a
people whose struggle and sufferings have so long at-
tracted the sympathy of the civilised world.

The Duke of CLARIINCI came to town yesterday
morning from him seat la Bushy Park. His Royal Highness trans-
actedcadal business at the Adrairaky. The Royal Duke left town

Dudley and Ward, Viscount Declutch, Viscount Palmerston, Mr.
Wynn, Mr. Huskissoa, and Mr. Timmy. The Ministers sat In
deliberation for about two hours.

Mr. CANNING entertained a numerous party of Mem-

It is stated that Lord BINNING is to be elevated to

We are sorry to learn that Lord BLOOM MILD has.,
been seriously indisposed at Walmer.
Besides the numerous Bills thrown out, or postponed
by the House of Lords, in consequence of having been
sent from the Commons just as Parliament was about
to be prorogued, there now remain on their Lordships
books, the Penryn Election Bill, the Copyhold Estates
Bill, the Writ of Right Bill, the Roman Catholics Land
Tex Bill, the Bankers Regulations Bill, and the Corn
Laws Bill; the second and third reading of which no-
body was tound ready to move.
During the last six weeks the ports have been open for
the admission of foreign oats, at a duty of four-pence a
quarter; and during that period no less *quantity than
353,000 quarters have been entered for home consump-
tion, in the port of London alone. The duty levied upon
such grain has not amounted to more than 5,9001. al-
though the prices, as might have been expected, have
fallen considerably since the time when the averages, by'
which the importation was governed, were made up.—
This is according to the old system ; and it may not be
wholly unprofitable to consider how the new law would
have operated, had it been in force at that ps rind. In
the first week the duty, with reference to the average
price, would have been Is. 9d. in the second and third
Ss. Sd. in the fourth and fifth weeks 4s. 9d. and in the
last 6s. Sd. The aggregate amount of duty would thus
have amounted to more than 66,0001.

The effect of the Censorship, which was at first only
seen in the altered tone of the Paris Papas, has now
become obvious before perusal. They begin to exhibit
extmples of those lacuna which, under the former
operation of this arbitrary system, the fiat of the Censor
often compelled them to present to the eye of the
reader. Nearly two columns of the Journal des Debate,
which arrived last night, are left blank, and this de-
ficiency occurs in the part of the paper usually allotted
to literary articles. All that remains to indicate the
n attire of the matter on which sentence of exclusion has
been pronounced, is the word Yarieds, pt inted as a title.
A letter fom Payis, dated the 27th ult. states that
the Spanish Nobleman Count °SALM, who was pre-

ciously received, has been appointed Minister for Fo-
reig, Affairs, in the room of Mr. SALMON, and may
therefore he shortly expected to return to Madrid.
