FeRTHER PARTICULARS.
This magnificent Fete commenced at 11 o'cloCk,
soon after the arrival of the PRINCE Reamer: His
Royal Highness came in his private carriage, and
was met, in the outer hall, by his Excellency, the re-
presentative of King FERDINAND, who was -sur•
rounded by his Household, viz. forty-eight servants,
in full-dress liveries ; and twelve officers of the esta-
blishment, in rich state uniforms ; there were also]
four running footmen, ire dresses entitely covered]
with gold lace, with silver batons in their hands, and
two of the Royal chasseurs, in uniforms of green and
silver. - They were most superb habits, being the
strict costume with the Court of Madrid. .
_Dancing commenced, in the great drawing morn,
with quadrilles. at eleven o'clock, to the music of a
French band ; but it was not till after the lapse of
two hour's that a chosen group, produced a dance •
this delay was owing to the very crowded state ot
the assembly.
About a quarter past one supper was announced.
The PRINCE Raottrer took his seat in the noble room,
on the ground floor, next Portland-place, having on
his right the Duchess of CLARENCE, and on his left
the Duchess of KENT. The lovely hostess occupied
the seat adjoining the former.
The Banquet consisted of every delicacy, and there
were twenty dilerent sDrts of foreign wines. This
table was covered with gold plate, of the most mas-
I sive description, highly enriched with sculptnre;-:-it
was laid for 36 persons. In the middle -room there
were placed two long tables, for 38 each ; and a
horse-shoe table, at the extremity of the apartment,
•for 48. 'Taking a view, in perspective, it was a most
splendid scene ; the brilliancy of the crystal chande-
hers, contrasted by the gold branched candelabras,
and the richness of the Ladies and Gentlemen's,
dresses, sparkling with diamonds; During the pe-
riod of the Royal. repast, the PRINCE REGENT fre-
quently directed his eye to the ceiling, during which
the glass chandeliers were continually in Motion,
horn the effect of the dancing above. There was an
abundance of pine-apples, and the most choice fruits.
The confectionary was very superior, and the orna-
mental pieces the most fanciful and elegant, consist-
ing of temples, mills, rocks, villages, wateistalls, and
cascades of sugar, exquisitely fine in workmanship.
About half past two the PRINCE joined the circle,
in the middle drawing-room ; he then held a long
conversation with Lady CASTLEREAGH and the Duke
of YORK. His Royal Highness paid great attention
to the dress of the Duke of WELLINGTON, whicJa
was a most superb habit, as a Grandee of Spain of
thefirst class. The spirit of the scene was now at
its zenith, and formed a striking contrast to the up-
roar which prevailed without. The crowd: in the
street became so great, that it was-impossible for the
police-officers to do their duty, in consequence of
which a strong party of the Life Guards were sent
for by Colonel Caseac ; then, and not till then, the
carriages could approach to set down the company,
many of which came very late. The PRINCE'S table
was twice replenished, and the others four times each.
The crowded drawing-roorns produced heat, and that
heat would have produced suffocation, had not the
forethought of removing the sashes occurred.
--
'Quadrilles and waltzes were the only figure move-
menu. No country dances. At half-past four the
music ceased.
The Peastax AMBASSADOR never made so superb
a display of diamonds.
Lady CASTLEREAGH was a brilliant of the first or-
der. Her Ladyship wore a ves of diamonds ; -and

VEGETABLE SYRUP. •
THE Genuine SYRUP of DE VELNOS.—The
only Depot for this useful Spring and Autumn Alterative,
is removed from 21, Frith-street, to No. 52, Berner's-street,
Oxford-street, where it is prepared according to the Recipe of
the late Mr• SWAINSON, intrusted to his Nephew and Suc-
cessor, Mr. THOMAS CA NHANI aloes. Astewg ma ebsdbip
dicines of this denomination, the VEGETABLE SYRUP of
DE VELNOS has obtained a distinction which its efficscy alone
can support. By expelling burnouts conveyed into the system,
either by infection, impure contact, intemperance, or a delicate
and peculiar construction of the secretary organs, it removes the
various disorders whlch they occasion. It not only dissipates
glandular tumors, eruptions, and ulcers, whatever be their nar
tore, but those debilities, consumptions, feminine obstructions,
fistulas, gouts, rheumatism', and palsies, which arise from scor-
butic, scrofulous, impure or other morbid obstructions of the
glands, of the lungs, of the neck, of the liver, of the mesentery,
of the groin, &c. which are the cause of those diseases.
The Syrup is prepared in great quantities for the Autumßen de-
mand, and it is sold at the Proprietor's house, No. 52,Berner
street, Oxford-street, Oxford-street, at 131. a bottle; and, by his appointment,
at Mr. Atkinson's, 196, Bishopsgatc-street Without ; and by

puted Aents in the East Indies', viz. Mssrs. Mackintosh and

Dragoon Guards, probably from-a repots being made
at Carltnn House of the numerous assemblage in the
street. On his Royal Highness's approach, we heat',
he vas assailed in the m ist scandalous manner with
hideous yells, hisses, and groans, but his sacred per•
son was completely protected by the Horse. At his
departure (about four o'clock in the morning) the
people had become more orderly, and his Royal
Highness, on getti❑g into his carriage, wat loudly
cheered ; his Royal Highness waved his handkerchief
in the most elegant and condescending manner.-
The company did not entirely separate till nearly

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
Mr. T.USHINGTON moved the Order of the Day for the
House going into a Committee upon the Newspaper Stamp -

The Sensate. having left the Chair, the Bill went through
the Committee pro forms, when the House.having resumed,
Mr. BROGDEN btought up the Report, which was re-
ceived, ar.d ordered to be taken into further consideration to-
morrow (this day).r-The Bill, as amended, was ordered td .
be printed.
Ms. G. LAMB presented a Petition from John Gilbert, the
person who some time since had made an unsuccessful attempt
to have his wife interred la a patent iron coffin, in the Parish
Church-yard of St. Andrew, Holborn, and which had given rise
to a good deal of litigation. The Hononribk Member stated;
that it he had any reason to believe that the Petitioner o•.s put
forward as the tool of the Patentee, he would have nothing to •
do with the Petition; but he was convinced it was not the fact.
It was the dying request of a beloved wife with which he had
endeavoured to comply. The Honourable Member observed;
that it appeared no redress mild be obtained either in the Ec-
clesiastical Courts, or the Courts of Common Law. He re-
marked upon the uncivilized ; esolution which the Churchwar-
dens had, upon that occasion, catered into, and said, that if the
reception of the Petition did not produce some effect upon the
officers who had obstructed the interment, be would endeavour td
obtain from the House the sanction of some measure that would
remedy the inconvenience.
Dr. PHILLIMORE did not oppose the Petition, but con.;
tended that the Petitioner had his remedy in the EccleriasticaT
Court, as the suit commenced there had only abated on account
of the death of the Rector.
After a few more words from Mr. G. Lens, Mr. Hor.rean;
Mr. IbiliNST, Mr. WYNN,. and Dr. I'MILLINICOALL, the Petition
was read, and ordeied to be printed.
WINE TEAR& • •
Sir C. MONCK said, that a rumour having gong
abroad that it was the intention of Government to
lower and equalize the duties on foreign wines; the •
merchants engaged in the importatibn of wine; par-
ticularly from Portugal' .and France, were very
anxious to ascertain whether there was any truth in
the report, and, therefore, he hoped the Chancellor
of the Exchequer would give him some information.:
on the subject.
The CHANCELLOR of the mcminctutn said;
no such plan as that alluded to by the Hon. Baronet
I would be contemplated, unless upon the princip* of
an equivalent being granted to British goods by fo‘
reign States. That would require a good deal of
negociation, and most occupy some time. ' It was ,
not, therefore, competent for him, at piesent, to say
What would be the result; but he thought that pre,
vious notice of the question ought to have heen givens
DISFRANCHISEMENT OF ORA MPOTIND.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL moved for leave to bring
in a Bill, to exclude the Borough of Grampound
Ifrom the privilege of sending Burgesses to Parlia-
ment, and to*enable the Borough of Leeds.tO send
two Burgesses to Parliament in lieu thereof. The
Noble' Lord stated, that it was his wish that the Bill
should be read a first time and printed before the rex
eess, to give time to Members to consider its
Lord CASTLEREAGH expressed a wish, that the
Noble Lord would defer the second reading of the
Bill to a distant day, that the House might have
time to examine its merits,
Lord JOHN I:USSELL said, that it was his in,
tension to defer the second reading until some time
after the holidays.
After some words from Mrs R. MARTITT, who op,
posed it, .the motion' was acceded to.
MANCHESTER SUFFERERS.
Mr. BROUGHAM said, he held in his hand a Pe;
tition, for the accuracy of whose facts he wonid trot
vouch ; though he had
.no reason to disbelieve their.
He could, however, state with confidence; that the
Petition was,
w couched in mild. and respectful lan-
guage. It as from a person who had attended a •
'Meeting at Manchester, on the 16th of last Atigent,
for purpesesprima facie legal, and according to ad:
.•
-vertisement, to which, by the lawful Authorities, no .
objection had been made. The adverthement was,
therefore, legal, as was the convening of the Meet-
ing, and to both these the Petitioner was a party.--s
If any thing illegal bad occurred, it'must have been
subsequently, and the Petitioner was not a party to
it. He, as the Petition stated, believed himself in is
charge of a legal right, when proceedings took place
well known to the Public. Scon after the charge
was made by the Yeomanry, he wes driven by the
crowd into a place inclosed by logs of timber. In
this situation, whence there was but one exit, shut up
by the military, he was cut at by a
.person of the
name of Oliver--,(Hear, hear)—his christian name
Alexander—(A laugh). The blow, which was that
of a sabre, separated the shoulder,blade, and pece- .
trated to his back. He could obtain no redress from
the local Magistrates, as they rein ..ed ter receive the
depositions, the Petitioner, was, therefore, driven to
implore the House to grant him that redress Which •
the nature of the case required. The Petition was
from Thomas Bedford—it was read, and ordered, to
be printed.
Mr. LAMBTON presented a Petition from Tho-
mas Booker, one. of those who had attended the
Manchester Meeting, of the 16th of August, which
he believed legal. There be was assailed by the
