the shrieks of deepair attired at his Anal separation
• from all his heart holds dear? Can it be supposed,
that men not totally insensible to the compunctions of
paters could, after this, possibly wish to continue
molt a trade? The Liverpool Petitioners were right :
they declined taking into their consideration any com-
mercial calculations of profit or loss—they took their
stood on higher, on esobler ground—they called
for it abolition on the pure and eternal prin-
ciples of justice and humanity—they proclaimed
such a traffic, proscribed both by j the laws of
went* and of Goo, and contended for our
tight to prevent any power from carrying it on,
. over whom our maritime preponderance gave us any
14eontrool. This is the right view of the sub-
llect.*--Tbe French Ministers, spdruill at all re-
-Ittridats from conscience or from GOD, may sit
dives and coldly calculate bow many negroes it

atla an adequate black population for St. Do.
Tango. Indeed they have already told us, that it will

require 11,000 a year, or 53,000 altogether.—
ThJnii,s to Heaven, however, England has it still in
ityr power to prevent the importation of one, and in

. i asusa.asitiail deeply involtes the national character,
and on which the people have pronounced so solemn
and ttaitarsal a condemnation, every man now ex-
pects our Ambassador will do his duty.

The Right W,n. GEORGE ROSE is arrived at the
jlague, prvsbahly to COOSQII with Lord CLANC 411 TY,
the Britith Ambassador there, as to commercial
sangermits between this country and Holland. •
It is now said that the Prince Regent of PontuaAt
has determined not to return to Europe until the next

Erring. •
It it a question in the circles of fashion, whether her
Royal Highness the Princess of WA LES will be received
at foreign Courts as her Task demands ? If she had
travelled before the visit of the illustrious Potentatev,
to England, no doubt could be entertained on the sub-
ject ; but as they were witnesses to her exclusion from
Court here, and did not pay their 'respects to her in
consequence of that exclusion, leis suPpoilld that she
cannot be publicly received either at Berlin or Vienna.
This and other circumstances lead us to believe that
her resolution of going abroad was very sudden, at
it certainly would• have been desirable for her, to
have avoided that insult hich•Will. bring upon her
—this emlthriesement in her tour. Weed:, it is known,
that in the letter written by Lady Apits,l4,rosAr,
• "Miter naAe, to the tad of Ltveivorg. • on Thurs.:

hir. CANNING must, therefore, have used some very
41ureible arguments to persuade her to give up all the
Narrangements she had made for the summer.—

Preparations are making at Brighton for the recep-
tion of the PRINCE REGENT. The band from Carle-
ton-house have mostly arrived there.
LYCEUM THEATRE.—The second perforManco of
Harlequin Hoax took place last night, and as on
the first representation, was distinguished with bursts
of laughter from the commencement to the conclu-
sion. A more entertaining Piece of the hind has
perhaps never been produced, and its success cannot
fail to be permanent.
The wheat harvest has rommencedround Brighton
with every appearance of a plentiful-atop. Some eon-.
siderahie breadths on the Downs were sheaved on
Saturday, anti many loads have been carried between
that place and Worthing.
The fete en nsilitaire, last night, at Vauxhall, in
honour of the Duke of Yortitli Birth-day, was at-
tended by a strong muster of military officers, fashion-
shies, and foreigners of distinction. The illumination
and general arrangements were admirable.
The son of Mr. WARD, an eminent builder in St.
James's, was unfortunately drowsed a few days
slam whilst bathing in the Thames. He was at a
boarding school in the neighbourhood of Hampton
Court. A Coroner's Jury delivered a verdict of slc-
