The venerable Mr. GRATTAN landed at Liverpool
on Monday night, from the Waterloo steam-packet.
The Pier was crowded with the sons of Hibernia,
who were assembled to welcome their distinguished
countryman. On his leaving the vessel, he was
greeted with three hearty cheers, and hundreds
Dressed forward to shake him by the hand, but his
worn-out frame was not able to bear their proffered
marks of respect. When the horses were brought
down for the carriage, the people-insisted on drawing
him to his hotel, which they did amidst loud huzzas.
When the Deputation from the Irish Catholics
lately waited upon Mr. GRATTAN, the interview, we
are informed," says the Dablin Weekly Register, " was
rno:t affecting. Mr. GRATTAN sat in an arm-chair,
huddled up in a blanket, and apparently sunk into
the lowest state of physical exhaustion. He was sur-
rounded by Mr. PLUNKET, Mr. Bunnows,-and other
persons of distinction. When the Deputation entered,
he made an effort to rise, but found himself unable
to support himself. His first words were My
Friends—l am going to die—we are about to part for

emotions, and there was nit one of the whole group
who did not shed tears."

EXTRACT 07 A LETTER ritom AN ENGLISH GENTLE-
MAN AT GENEVA, DATED *AVM

" The Qum; arrived here on Tuesday last, coming by Mount
Cenis to Chambery. and thence by"Aix and Rummy to this place.
her MAresrr is lodged at the Hotel l'Eeu tie Geneve, where
sbe intends to remain till the return of a Courier sent to Mr.
BROUGHAM on her arrival here.
Iler UAJESTr is leading a most retired and regular life : she
rises early, and is in bed generally before eleven: her dinner'
hour is two, after which she takes an airing on the Lake, and
returns at five to tea.

Her MAJESTY was confined at Milan several days by indispo-
sition, but is now in the best health and spirits : she has been
induced to travel with less expedition than usual, following the
advice of her physicians.
" On Friday, as the Qualm entered her_carriage to take her
ecuitosnecl ride, she was informed of the death of the Duchess
of Yoax, (happily a false report)--it so affected her that she was
obliged to return to her chamber in evident distress.
" From the Authorities of the KIJIO Of SARDINIA her MAJESTY
received the greatest attention. Though she expressed a desire I,
to keep the strictest incognito, they insisted upon providing her
2414,resrr with an escort of carabiniers throughout the Sardinian
dominions.
" Her Alarrary has dismissed her Italian Court; and, with
the exception of her maids and footmen, has merely with her
Al. de Ecaorati, (her Chamberlain), an Equerry, and her Pri-
vate Secretary, who is an English gentleman.

" Mr. War. Auertx, whom her Martorr took under her pro-
tection while a child, is now a very fine young man, and acenm-
pauiesher Abassrr to England, where she Intends to pl,tce him
at College.
4‘ A great deal of jealousy has been excited in Italy, and stories
have found their way to England, relative to the exaltation of
M. de BaRCAM by her Marswrr, from the situation of a Courier
to Chamberlain—from apparently nothing, to that of a Baron co-

vered with orders: But it is said that these decorations he
gained by his bravery with the French Army in the campaign
of Russia and elsewhere; and, beside, the high recommends'
Lion the Qum received with hfm, she says that she found his
family was of respectability, and she lost no occasion to reward
him for six years of tried services. He leaves her 111Assarr
next week, to join his sisters at Bologna.
" On receipt of dispatches from England the Quits will set
out immediately for Ostend, taking the route by Lausanne to
Carisrube, and so on to Brussels."
