Tea, the Prince and Princess of Huss itosinounc,

closing the lawn or court-yard, were ordered to be
opened for the admission of the different branches
of the Royal Family, as usual, to the front entrance
to the grand hall.

Sir HUMPHRY and Lady DAVY left town yesterday
for the Continent. Sir Homprtay's first object is to
assist the miners of Flanders and Germany in using
his safety lamp for the preservation of their lives ;
and his second object to go to Naples, for the purpose
of applying a chymical process to the unrolling of
the Herculaneum MSS. His Royal Highness the
Parma Rzossrr, we understand, honoured Sir HUM-
PHRY DAVY with an audience before his departure,
and was graciously pleased to encourage his under-
taking, and afford to it his patronage. His Royal
Highness, we believe, has never lost sight of these
interesting remains; and it it sincerely to be hoped
that his enlightened views and exalted patronage,
bringing into activity the resources of-British Science,
will at length unfold to the literary world these hid-
den treasures of Greek and Roman learning.

minster in Parliament. Mr. WETHERELL said, he
felt proud, that many of the most respectable and
independent Gentlemen, inhabitants of Westminster,
should have done him the honour to fix upon him,
las a person fit to represent them in Parliament ; and
he hoped they would accept his unfeigned thanks
for their good wishes and their pledge-of support, if
he thought it advisable to accede to their proposals ;
he was, however, compelled, not from any doubt of
success, to decline the honour—partly from his pro-
fessional engagements, and other private reasons.
