ST. PETERSBURGH, OCTOBER 2.

Baron Strogonoff, on his return from Constanti-
nople and Odessa, arrived at the Post-house, near
Luga, just as his Majesty the Emperor, on his journey
to Witepsk, was coming out of the Church at that
place, where he had been paying his devotions.
The Ambassador, in his travelling chess, imme-
diately waited •on his Majesty, and was most gra-
ciously received. The Emperor immediately went
with him to the house of the Bailiff, near by, and con-
versed a long time with the Minister. His Excellency,
who is arrived here, has been honoured with the most
flattering reception by both the Empresses. The Pub-
lic have also shown much eagerness in testifying to
him the interest they have taken in the critical cir-
cumstances in which he has been placed, and the firm
and noble conduct which he shewed in them.

Our Court goes into mourning for eight days, for
the late Queen of England.

VIENNA, OCTOBER S.

We know, from an authentic source, that immense
purchases of grain, for English account, are making
in the Bannat.

THE KING.

HANOVIER, OCTOBER, 16.
The ICING's Physicians have declared, that it is ab-
solutely necessary that his MAJESTY should keep his
bed for five or six days, for which reason the dinner
at the Duke of CAMBRIDGE'S, the Procession to the
Church, and the grand parade on Sunday morning,
are countermanded.

His Excellency the Minister V. ARNSWALDT, Will
set out on the 21st for Gottingen, to prepare for the
arrival of the KING, which, if his MAJESTY'S health
will permit, is to be on the 25th.

The beautiful Princess of SALM, daughter of her
Royal Highness the Duchess of CUMBERLAND, who
is nineteen years of age, is particularly noticed by his
MAJESTY.

Since his Masgsty's arrival, the exchange of cou-
riers has been very active in various directions. The
Marquis of LONDONDERRY is very much engaged, and
appears but seldom in the numerous parties given by
the Ministers and others.

It was thought very singular that nobody was here
from Hesse Cassel, to compliment his MAJESTY, and
as it is contrary to etiquette, in those cases, for the
Ambassador to arrive later than the Prince who is to
be complimented, it was thought that the Elector
would come in person. This expectation has not
been realised, for on the 4th inst. the High Chamber-
lain, Von BARDELESEN, arrived from Cassel.

It is said that the Hessian Ambassador has no mis-
sion except to apologise for the Elector, who is pre.
vented from coming : he has not yet had an audience.

LINTZ, OCTOBER 11.•
Letters received here yesterday from Vienna, an-
nounce that the preparations for receiving the KING
of ENGLAND have been countermanded, in conse-
quence of an official notification, received by our
Court,that his BR (TA NNIO MAJESTY'S travelling route
was changed, and that he would return to England
sooner than he had at first proposed.

It may not be generally known that all the Official
Papers connected with Military Promotions, Ex-
changes, &c. are sent to Hanover for the KING'S ap-
proval, and that the LORDS JUSTICES do not exercise
any authority in that particular department. This
will account for the non-appearance of the long-ex-
pected Military List in the Gazette.
Orders were received at Carlton Palace, by the
last Messenger from Sir BENJAMIN BLOOMFIELD, for
all the domestics to be in strict attendance at Carlton
Palace in the ensuing week.

to all the LORDS JUSTICES, by express.

proaching Coronation, to the 24th of this month, has
further adjourned them to the Ist of November.
The Duke of YORK arrived at York House, in the
Stable-yard, at an early hour yesterday morning,

The French papers mention the celebration of a
marriage at Paris, in which the bridegroom was 92,
and the bride 82. A ball was given after the cere-'
mony, which was opened by this venerable new-mar-
ried couple.
The following is an extract of a letter from Dr.
BALLY, Physician to the Princess of CONDE, dated
Barcelona, the 10th The fever continues its
ravages, the weather is delightful, and it is difficult
to reconcile the prevalent disease with so serene a sky,
and an atmosphere apparently so pure. Though the
town is invested, the healthy and convalescent have
permission to walk in a circuit of two leagues. The
number of deaths cannot be correctly ascertained ;
Ithey are reckoned by some at 12, and by others at
115,000. The calls upon us to attend the sick are in-
cessant, and increase every hour."

In the general sitting of the Copenhagen Asiatic
Company on the 27th ult. various Reports were made.
Captain Stage has paid the debts of the Company at
Canton, with the interest ; but, on the other hand,
made a new loan of 9,000 piastres on the Company's
bonds. The indemnity of four Dutch dollars per day

Captain Trock, who was imprisoned in Java for seven
years and eight months. Each share is valued at
185 rix dollars banco in silver, or 246 do. in notes.
This morning, at five o'clock, the Dover Mail-
coach, in passing through Dartford, on its way to
London, broke down. Fortunately neither the guard,
coachman, nor passengers received any injury. The
Mail was taken out and conveyed to town in a post-
chaise and four, accompanied by the guard and two
of the passengers, and arrived at the General Post-
office in the short space of one hour and 25 minutes,
a distance of sixteen miles. _

Tuesday afternoon, one of the Manchester coaches,
which had just left Liverpool, was overturned on the
London road, opposite to Gilead-house, owing to the
breaking of the after-azlettee. Of the passengers,
two were hurt, but not so seriously as to prevent
them going forward in another coach, which was
sent up by the Proprietors immediately on their hear-
ing of the accident.
-The gang of nocturnal depredators, who have strip-
ped so many houses in Live, pool of their lead and
iron, are still at work. On Wednesday se'nnight,

performed the same service to many other families.
' The preparations for lighting St.James's Park with

Horse Guards. At this rate, the circuit of the Park
will shortly be completed, and this very desirable
object accomplished.
