Yesterday, about 12 o'clock, his MAJESTY arrived
at the Queen's Palace, from Windsor, where he was
received by the Dukes of YORK, CUMBERLAND, KENT,
Sussex, and CAMBRIDGE. Soon after two o'clock his
MAJESTY held a Private Levee. The following had
the honour of being presented to his MAJESTY.:
Governor WILLIAM We NNa, on his being appointed Governor
of Sandown Fort, upon which occasion he received the honour of
Knighthood.

Master-General of the Ordnance.
His Grace the Duke of DEvossotar, upon his marriage.

lon Regiment.
Vice-Admiral Sir JAMES SAM/AILS, upon his return from the

His MAJESTY held a Privy Council, and gave au-
diences to the CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER, the
rest of the Cabinet Ministers, Sir DAVID DUNDAS,
and Mr. M. SUTTON ; the last of whom laid before
his MAJESTY the proceedings of some Courts Martial.
Yesterday Mr. Sheriff WOOD, accompanied by Mr.
BYNG, the Member for Middlesex, waited on Sic
FRANCIS BURDETT in the Tower, and presented the Ad-
dress voted at the late meeting of the Freeholders of
the County. The cavalcade was accompanied to and
from the Tower by a numerous concourse of people,
who behaved with great decorum. In the evening,
the Petition to the House of Commons voted at the
same meeting was presented, and excited a discussion,
which has been adjourned to this evening.
Monday evening, a numerous meeting of the Free-
men of the city of Canterbury took place at the City
Arms, when a Requisition to the Mayor for a Com-
mon Hall,
" To take the sense of the Freemen on the extraordinary as-
sumption of power by a Majority of the House of Commons,
and the various abuses existing in every breach of Govern-
ment, and to adopt such measures as may be deemed most con-
ducive to a radical Reform in the Representation of the People,"
was proposed, and unattimoudy carried. The Requisition was
immediately signed by upwards of 100 of the most respectable
Citizens.
Tuesday afternoon, Lord ROYSTON, the only sur-
viving son of the Earl of HARDIVICKE, and the nephew
of Mr. YORKE, died at Cambridge. The Noble Earl
has been singularly unfortunate. A year or two ago,
his eldest son perished in a storm in the Baltic ; his
other has just been snatched from him. Mr. CHARLES
YORKE is now the heir to the Earldom.
The long-expected arrangements in the prison de-
partment at Portsmouth will, it is expected, speedily
take place. There are nearly 13,000 prisoners of war
at Forton depot and confined in the prison-ships at
Portsmouth. Forton is still to contain 3000, and
Porchester will take between 6 and 7000. The re-
mainder will •be kept on board the ships, five or six
only of which will be kept. These, on account of
their size and good condition, will probably be the
Assistance (Commodore's ship), San Antonio, San
l)amasn, Vengeance, and Veteran ; it being abso-
lutely necessary to retain this number of ships, as
well to keep those whom Forton and Porchester can-
not contain, as to receive new prisoners that may ar-1

Accounts have lately been received from the island
of Goree down to the middle of March, which give
favourable information regarding the state of that
settlement. The garrison had beta reinforced with a
strong detachment of the Royal African Corps from
this country, and was healthy.• No apprehensions
were entertained for the safety of the colony, and pro-
visions were plentiful when our advices were dated,

Last night we received Paris papers to the 27th
ult. from which we have given some interesting ex-
tracts. According to these papers, tranquillity pre-
vails at Malaga, under the auspices of SEBASTIANI.
Granada is likewise quiet—A, the inhabitants thereof
being undeceived, think only of living peaceably
under the paternal Government of the King."
The new government still continues the most se-
ductive of all practices to gain the affections of. the I
people ; and which, in the end, must give King
bunt complete triumph over all opposition, unless
the allies shall employ against him the same kind of
artillery—the destruction of abuses and privileges in-
jurious to the people.
These papers also mention the intention of NA ro-
LEON to visit his new Dutch dominions. Private let-
ters state that he has actually set out on this tour,
and that their Majesties, the Emperor and new Em-
press, were at Antwerp on Friday last the 29th ult.
