try ; but by letters received fions Glasgow, dated
yesterday, it does not appear that any serious dis.
turbance had then taken place, although great up-
prehensions were entertained, in consequence of in-
flammatory placards, which had been distribtsted
',there in the course of the morning, and of the
multitudes which then thronged as Cutest*. The
Authorities had taken every possible means to pre-
vent or put down disorder. One of the Addresses
which had been torn down, we have seen ; it breathes
the usual spirit of malignant advice, and an appear-
ance of temperance and forbearance; it has no sig-
' nature, but bears to be subscribed 4,4 by order of the
Committee of Organization, for forming a Paovt-
SIONAL ObVERNMENT," and is dated Ist April. The
signal for a rising was to be the non-arrival of the
London Mail ; but we know not by what means it
was to be impeded. The Glasgow sharpshooters were
ordered to parade at four o'clock this morning.

The effect of the Censorship imposed on the Press
in France, is made to-day sufficiently manifest, by
the arrivals from that country. The Itfoniteuto, the
official Paper, is the only one of Monday's date
which has come to hand, and even that is only half
its usual size. All the other Journalists have, we I
presume, either thrown up their pens in disgust, or
have met with such difficulties in at first conforming
to the new order of things, as have prevented their
appearance.

The first article in this half Moniteur is a Royal
Ordinance, nominating the Members of the Commis-
sion of Censure, established by the law just passed.
The names are all quite new to us, and we suspect
they are not much less so to the French People them-
selves—a circumstance not very auspicious to any
hopes which might be entertained from their inte-
grity. The individuals are :
Sieursd'Ansaasssi, Inspector General of Studies.
Ausilla. Member of the French Academy.
Batas &

D'Eaassner, Ex-Rector of the Academy of Grenoble.
LAGIARD de CRSIIVAL.
Louanoussx ; and
bfazuaa, Inspector General of Studies.
Another Ordinance also nominates the Membr•rs
of the Council entrusted with the surveillance of the
censure. In point of obscurity they seem much on
a par with the preceding. The following is the list:

Sieurs BOYER, Venous, OLL lilt; and Vossut as Gwarumrs,
Counsellors of the Court of Cessation.
Bum Ds Scraor, President of the Court of Accounts.
•
Tauzin.; Master of Accoanu.
Dr MXILVILLI, President.
LITOITZVIII and Lausitz, Counsellors of the Royal Court of
Paris.

It is impossible not to regard it as a circumstance
'of most evil omen, that the Censorship of the Press,
among a great and enlightened People, should be
confided to a set of men, not one of whom is of the
least reputation in letters or in science.
The only other French articles in the official bit of
paper which has been permitted to make its appear-
ance, are, a Notice of the KING'S hearing Mass—ano-
ther of his MAJUTY's signing a marriage contract ;
two anecdotes of royal charity ; announcement of an
historical eulogium on the Duke of BERRY; List
from the Ministry of War of military Condolences
on the Duke of BERRY'S death ; instruction as to
the forms of admission into the Special Military
School ; and a dry list of Petitions reported to the
Chamber of Deputies.
The Reader will see, from this analysis, what an
interesting and public-spirited thing a Journal, under
Censureship, is likely to become. We think it would
be well if all the Journals, that are not, like the Mo-
niteur, , compelled to appear, would persist in not pub-
lishing a line as long as the present system is in
force; the deprivation to the Public would be such
as could not fail to bring speedily round a restoration
to freedom and independence.

Yesterday afternoon, Lord and Lady CAETLEREAGH
left town for their seat at North Cray. Lord AN-
CRAM had the honour of driving her Ladyship in his
curricle ; but the Noble Secretary was occupied the
greater part of the day at the Foreign Office, and did
not set out till several hours after. The Hon. Miss
FITZROY accompanied his Lordship. Friday is the
day_ appointed for the return of the party.
Yesterday Sir BENJAMIN BLOOMFIELD arrived in
town front Brighton, in order to inspect the arrange-
mems.carrying on at Carlton House for bis MAJESTY'S
return to town.

The Duke of Smart went to Salt-Hill, yesterday,
on a visit to Mi. COUTTS, who, we regret to hear, has
had the misfortune to break two of his ribs.
There is no truth in the report mentioned yester-
day, of the death of the Marquis of HeeTronu, his
Lordship being in better health•and spirits than he
has been for some time.

Sir MARK WOOD, we are concerned to state, is
seriously indisposed, at his seat at Gauen, in Surrey.
The Duke of DEVONSHIRE has issued cards of in-
vitation for a grand entertainment on Tuesday next;
at his villa at Chiswick.

pected in town next week, from their seat, Raby
Castle, Durham.

few days, for the season, from their seat, Powis Castle,
Montgomeryshire.
