Ste—Accoistoomeol as we have hewn for a length of time

ppet of this evening exhibits, under the head of " Mob

Mission of the Queen's triumph ; but so fraught with
idreltorwl and misrepresentation, that had it not borne
Maio distinguishing marks about it, I should have I,

STOCK EXCHANGE, ONE O'CLOCK.

The Funds have not such a promising appearance
as they have had lately, for the market, towards
the latter part of yesterday, experienced a consider•
able depression, owing to a report that the King .if
FRANCE was dead, and in consetpleare, the French
Funds hail fallen 14 per Cent. Consuls, whirls were
when we went to Ares• vi s•erday 691. for the as-
count, fell to 59, but have recovered this morning,
and have been 691 buyers, but ere now sellerA, the
market looking steady, very little money business
ha►•ing been dune.

The rejoicings on the deliverance of the guy IN are,
to courtiers and their minions, mattersvoi %cry serious
noirtilication. Some men love darkness more than
light ; and are the more chagrined at present. at the
illuminations that prevail through the us sltry, Lrcxnse
they betoken too plainly the extrusion of those quali-
ties ;sinong the people, of which they are often used as
emblems,---the spread of spirit and intelli.zroce. Where-
ever they can, We hind, they set Ilurns,e!ves in array to
check their de 1111 l nstration, wilt the isa:s o capons they
condemn is hen employed against theosscli a. 11's. can
only refer, at present, for instance-, to t he proceedings
stated in our other columns, to have taken pl.ire at
Oxford and Cambridge. On ass early occasion no shall
notice them at large.

A protest against the abandonment of the proceed.
Ings against the Querss was entered on Saturday, at the
Parliament Other, and left for signatures. It has been
already signed by Lord Snerrict.n and the Duke of
NoturnemucuLAsn. In addition to thi,, we le.!rn that
Viree other protests Lave been enter. 41 On the Journals
of the House, and that a fifth is threatened fruit the
LORD CH A Nl* ELLOR himself. In protesting a2Ainst
the abandonment of the Bill, the Noble Lords who
take this step, directly set thetii:els es ill opposition to
the Ministers. Into what confn,ion and disgrace the
tiovertiutent has this involved itself : The very mea-
sure by which it was intend:l to destroy the QuELst,
must prove the means of deitruetion to the administra-
tion that contrived it. The men who still hall office
are arranged against their head, and the favourites and
family sf the iityo are at variance with the Minister
who directs his councils. A house divided against
itself cannot stand. Some change of Ministry is in-
evitable : and rumour consequently is At work in pro-
jecting the arrangement of a tew one. Mr. CAN-
NING is on his way from France, and might, it is
reported, if the wind were favourable, he expected
In town to day. Curiosity is much excited to
know the part, which that adroit politician
intends to play iu the midst of the existing
distraction. Is he most li!.ely to reconcile
or to augment the differences'? Can he retain his
post in the present state of things, or will he aspire
to a higher, and bring about a change ? In this dge
of wonders nothing should surprise us. We have
witnessed events the most unlookeil fur come to pass ;
bat of all the estraordinary events, the most incon-
*latest nod staggering would be to see that man give
countenance to any Ministers or to any measitres in 130.-

nounced to be 6' the grace and‘urnamcnt of society."
