. Yesterday the Anniversary Meeting of the Charity
Children educated by voluntary subscription in the
Metropolis and the environs, took place in the Ca- .
thearal Church of St. Paul ; and a more exhilarating
sight this gay capital does not produce, than to see
between nine and ten thousand boys and girls, al.
dean and healthy, neatly clothed, and educated, ar-
ranged -under the vast dome of St. Paul's, offering
hymns of praise to their Cile.ATOlt. The LORD
!lawn, attended by the City Officers, came in the
usual state. The sermon was preached by the Rev. 1
James ifooss, Archdeacon of Huntingdon and Pre-'
bendary of Winchester, but from the great extent of
the place, it was so unfavourable for hearing, that;
but few were benefited by it. The Coronation six-1
firam, and several Psalms, were sung and chaunted
buthe Gentlemen of ire Choir ; the children ,oined
ia the choruses. Some of the girls, overpowered by
the heat of the day, fainted, and were taken out by
their mistresses. The Church was very full. -

THE PRINrE RSGENMENTIRTAIN-
MEAT TO THE GRAND DUKE.

On Wednesday evening his Rorty Highness the I
PRINCE REGENT gave a grand entertainment to his
Imperial tlighness the Grand Duke MICHAEL.
His Imperial Highness was received by a Guard
of the Yeomen of the'Guani, the Body Guard of the
Sovereign, who lined the grand hall. The Pages, esc.
appeared in their State uniforms; and they, with the
pnncipal Royal Attendants, conducted his Imperial
Highness into the presence of the Ricers?. The din-
ner prepared for his Imperial Highness was in the
splendid Gothic room at the east end of the lower
suite of rooms, which was first opened for the enter-
tainment of his illustrious brother, the Emperor of,
Russta, and on this occasion the table was decorated'
with the State service of plate. There were present
to meet his Imperial Highness,
The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, the Princess Sophia of
Gloucester, the Duchess of York, the Leedgrave of Hesse
Cassel, Prince F.sterhasy the Netherlands, the French, the
Spanish,. and other Ambassadors ; Viscount Castlereagh, the
Marquis and Marchioness of Cholmondeley, Count 'kit/aster,
Bann Nieholai, and the Grand Duke and suite.
The Itecersr had also a splendid numerous party
to meet the GRAND DUKE. The Court-yard was
brilliantly lighted. The porters wore magnificent
scar's, richly embroidered ; and staffs, six feet high,
with the Royal Arms at the top, executed in the most
masterly workmanship, and decorated with gold lace.
A detachment of Life Guards marched into Pall-
Nall to assist the Police in re g dating the carriages.
A Guard Sf Honour rnarchid into d;e Court-yard,
preceded by the Band of the 3d Regiment of Foot
Guards, who saluted the Royal Family with s, Goo
save the King," and played. a variety of p'tees. The
manhalmen and under porters were in attendance to
assist the company in setting down and taking up.
The Grand Hall was refreshed arid very tastefully
decorated with sm ill trees, plants, and flowers,
brought from Kew Gardens.
The. Conservatory was lighted upon the occasion.
and the Duke of Yone's Band of the First Regiment
of Foot Guards were stationed in it, and played dur-
ing the evening.
The Duke and Duchess of CAMBRIDGE, who had
been previously engaged by commanding a Play at
Drury-lane Theatre to see Mr. KEAN, before the Re.-
GENT fixed on the day of the entertainment to the
GRAND DUKE, were pre,,ented on that account from
being present at the dinner, but called at the evening
party on their way from the Theatre, and stepped a'
short times The company were of the highest rank,
and very numerous.

The Grand Duke MICEAIL, with the Countess
Liavor and suite, were present at Guildhall during
the greater pan of the proceedings on Tuesday pre-
viously to the polling. lie sat in the small gallery
over the hastings, and seemed a most attentive ob-
server of what was passing.
Toads/ the Duke of Yoits, as Commander-in-
Chief, h 4 I a Levee at his 'Office, which was attended,
among others, by_ General Covtan, %lieutenant-Gs-
nerals MAO'S, MACLEAN, WY:N:4MM, FRAZEE, and
Sir C..C-nevit.t.s, and Major-Generals Sir D. PAca,
Lord St.+NEY, G.EIYRITa. Sir G. WATT, Lord SAL-
TowN, &C.
The Duke and Duchess of Crstssatdorz and suite
will in a few days set out for the Continent. Their
preparations are *early complete.
It is a singular circumstance, that of all the six
candidates for the city of Westminster, Sir SANITEL
ROMILLT is the only one native of that place. He was
born in Gresk-street, in the parish of St. Anne, Soho.
Sir Jattss Satawei the late much•respected Mem-
ber for the City, is gone to Ireland, on commercial
business.

The following curious trial is going on before the
'Correctional Tribunal at Parisi—A print was lately
published, eagraved by an artist of the name of PAR-
ToQr, representing a child in a military dress, seated
on the knee of an old grenadier, and surrounded by
old soldiers. The engraver, and several dealers who
had sold the print, havin g been cited to answer for
the alleged offence of its circulation, asserted that
it was nothing but the representation of a scene in
lEsfant da Regiment, a piece played for some time
at the Theatre de la Gaietc. In this interpretation
the Chamber of Council of the Tribunal de Premiere
Instance agreed ; and they therefore determined that
there was no ground for the prosecution. This deci-
^sion was appealed against by the Ministry to the Cour
Royale, by .which Court it was set aside, and PAR-
' TOUT and the printcellen directed to be tried before
the Tribunal of Correctional Police. The secret is at
length disclosed, the Cour Royale having discovered,
by means of some light thrown upon the subject, that
the engraving in its different parts, and in its ensem-
lie, is :mended to represent the son of BONAPARTE.
The case was adjourned till the 12.3 d instant, to hear
the King's Advocate, and the Advocate for the de-
fendants.

....... -
WO It 111 I P.STREST”BVILLOCK thrnrssx---Corneliu.s
Creecg was brought before the sitting Magistrate for
haiing unlawfully combined with, and assisted others
in forcibly driving a bullock from a pant Smithfield
drover, and hunting the said bullock, by which con-
siderable damage had been done. The poor drover
was beat with bludgeons, and cut dreadfully in his
efforts to prevent this disgraceful proceeding ; but as
many other refractory characters were concerned in
the disgraceful outrage, the prisoner could not be
identified to have committed the assault upon the
drover ; and he was convicted under the Bullock-
Hunting Act, in the penalty of 20s.
UNION HALL.-,,Yesterday C Scott was charged
with sdteringibrgectlv'otes.--Nlr. Beasley, assistant to
Mr. Plant, a shopkeeper in the Borough, stated, that'
the prisoner, on the 9th ult. purchased some articles
at his employer's shop. and paid a £1 note ; he re-
ceived the change, and wrote his address, "
Walworth-road." The note afterwards proved
I to be a forgery, aad no such person was to be found
as described. On the same night two other forged
notes, with,the same address, were passed to different
tradesmen in the Borough.-I(eroanded.
S. Maid and R. Richards were charged with attar-
ing a
,forged note. The prisoners spent the evening
with a prostitute in St. George's-fields, and gave the
note in payment for the expenses. The damsel paid
it to her lanilord, who discovered it to be a forawry,
and the prLoners were apprehended.—A Bank In-
spector proved tfhe note to he forged, and the priso-
ners irate folly committed,

COVRT OP CHANCERY. JUNE 18.

_ .• .
von t. FOR THE COUSTY OF WEYMOUTif.

CATRCART' AND OTHER.* v. ITZWART, AND OTDE'R.S.
Sir A. ROMILLY, in this case; prayed the Lord
Chancellor to issue an injunction to restrain the de-
fendants from transferring, selling, or msigning, cer-
tain rent,l-charges, or portions of the Land- Tax,
arising oat of property devised by the parties named
in the pleadings, situate at Weymouth and 7.llelcombe
Regis, and that the defendant, Stewart, might be
decreed to hold the same, as Trustees for the plain-'
tiffs, who claimed to have been the highest bidders
at the sale. The defendant, Stewart, Sir Samuel con-
tended, had no right, as one of the Commissioners of
'the Land Tax, to-have become the purchaser of the
property
in question.
Mr. Batt contended against the position of Sir
Samuel, and took various objections in point of form.
pie contended that his clients were tie highest bidders,
having offered one and a half per Cent. more than
any ocher person.
Sir S. ROMtLLY replied.
The LORD CRANCRLLOR Said, I will read Stewart's
answer, and give you my opinion when I come into
Court to-morrow. I have no doubt, as respects the

plea of delay for Sir Samuel, were I to give you my
opinion, it would be against you. I will thank you
for the Act of Parliament, for it may be necessary to
look into it.

SCOTCH PEERS.

The business of the Court was, for a short time,
suspended by the entrance of several Scotch Peers,
who came to take the oaths of allegiance, in order to,
qualify themselves for voting at the election of the!
representative Peers of Scotland They were five in
number. The Ein of CA ssi Lis, the E irl df SALLO-
WaY, the Earl of ABERUPAN, the Earl of ABOYNE
and Lord Fonansrgst. They stood on the beach on
the right hand of the LORD CHANCELLOR. While
they were taking the oaths, the Bar remained stand-
ing. His Lordship sat and kept his hat on.
