FROM THE MAINE, JUNE 7.

In a North German capital city, the differences which had
arisen between the Sovereign and his eldest son appear not to be
arranged. A person of high rank is said to have forced his way,
with his sword drswn, into the Sovereign's study, to have attacked
the persons present, and to have insulted an esteemed officer.
A Courier arrived from a Northern Court has caused credit
to be given to the report, that a Northern Power had been ap-
plied to for assistance, to prevent the measures which the Sove-
reign meant to take to prevent the recurrence of similar occur-
rences in future. This event has made an unfavourable impres-
siott on the Public. The Officer is said not to have hitherto ob-
tained any satisfaction, which it is however to be expected that he
will, since otherwise very disagreeable consequences might be
apprehended. The abuse and ill treatment which have hitherto
so often occurred, must of course become still more frequent—
still
less regard will be paid to decorum, and at the end, some
man of high sense of honour, attacked in this manner, acrd cer-
tain of obtaining no satisfaction, will devote himself as a victim
It is indisputably quite incompatible with chivalrous and mill-
tary ideas of honour for a Prince to insult a brave man, and
then to take advantage of his birth to refuse him satisfaction.

Miss O. (as a Journal lately conjectured) has really quitted
her retirement, and appeared in public life. After several Offi-
cers of State had visited her, she gave her first Assembly, at
which even Privy Cabinet Councillors and Directors of Public
Lands were present. Upon occasions also, when all the servants
of the Sovereign appeared publicly (as, for instance, at funerals),
the savants of Mias A joined the seivants of the Prince. Seve-
ral circumstances of this description make it likely that an eleva-
tion in rank will shortly take place.

Charlestown Papers to the Ist of June arrived this
morning. Their prominent theme is the general dis-
tress among commercial men. All trade seems•to be
quite at a stand—the stores overloaded with Euro-
pean fabrics, the low price of which is spreading ruin
among the infant Manufactures established during
the war. By way of remedy they talk of increasing
the duties on foreign goods ; but they will find that
the evil cannot be thus remedied. The long wars of
Europe gave them an attended commerce which they
have now lost; nor will the old world be hasty to re-
vive hostilities for the benefit of the Uuited States.

Yesterday, the PRINCE REGENT entertained at
Dinner, in Carlton House, a select party of seven,
amongst whom was his Royal Highness the Prince
of Cosoutto. In the evening there was a private
Concert.

Thursday evening, Prince Litorotn gave an ele-
gant Entertainment to the PRINCE REGENT, and a
distinguished Party, at Marlborough-House, which
has been magnificently fitted up. On the arrival of
the REGENT in his carriage, Prince LaoroLD was at
the door of the Mansion-house, to receive his Royal
Highness, and whom he conducted into the grand
Drawing-room, in which are paintings of the RING,,
the late QUEEN, the PRINCE REGENT, and the la-
mented Princess CHARLOTTE.—The company assem-
bled to meet the PRINCE REGENT were—
Prince Esterhazy, the Dukes of Montrose and Rutland, the
Marquisses of Winchester and Hertford, Earls WestinoreLuid,
Lonadale, Liverpool, Bathurst, and Harrington ; Viscount Sid-
