formed, beaded by the %yet: and Authorities of Calais,
and his Metesty passed between the ales of military trom

Grand Place, and Rut Royale, to Dessta's Hotel, where
the standard of England was flying frons.the balcony.
The shoats which accompanied -hie; progress, con-

well-wishers. I should, observe that .the bells played

with " Henri Quatre", and " Patrick's Day." A
guard of honour remain outside Dessia's, which was,
last night illuminated. His 5l ajesty waviopdly cheered,
on his way from the Theatre. He deplete this day
for Cassel. Prince Esterhazy, who arrived before
him, yesterday took the road to Paris.

of wine to be given to each soldier,; but the Colonel
said balfa one would be sufficient, u he was fearful
they would not be able to.do duty to day. -

carrying him on shore. The water was so low, 'it was
found necessary to lighten her by throwing the ballast
overboard, to enable her to pass the bar. The Duke de
la Chartres, and Count Jumilline, the Governor of -the
Department, were sent to meet him, at the water side.
They sat down thirteen to dinner, inducting the Com-
manding Officer of the Legion, whom be invited. The
whole guard dined at his Majesty's expense, and six
hundred bottles of wine were drank. After ainner, he
went to the play, where we saw him, looking particu-
larly well, and pleased. He was received with great
applause, and his affability and good French delighted
all around him. This morning about eight he left
Calais in a travelling carriage, in which were 'Lord Co-
nyngham, and Sir Wm. Knighton, followed by *nether
with Lord F. Conyngham and Sir Edmund Nagle. A
third, with servants, and a caravan for baggage, com-
posed his suite. He proceeds to Lisle, and froni, thence
to Brussels.

reader's pardon fur introducing the word bravo, as its
might be considered a takes of approbation. A
bravo, no doubt, would be more is character, as the
hireling assassins in the South of Europe ate called
Bravoes. Still, political infamy, notorious inde-
cency, or the assassination of private character, is
no bar to preferment, power and profit. It may
be asked, how can public demoralisation take
place under the guardianship of men, the most moral,
most religions ? Aye, there's the rub. Our answer is,
political and common morality differ as much as po•
-
' litical and real religion. Both the Jewish and Christian,
Religion hold the same Conintandments as the moral
guide of conduct; yet we find them but t feather
in the scale of political calculation; and while a tenth
part of the riches of the country is employed to propa-
gate the Christian Ilteligioa, double the sum is spent
in counteracting it. If rewards are held out, spies and
informers paid, an inquisition erected above the law,
and hackney scribes paid to abase and insult a peo-
ple overloaded with taxes, no longer can a man boast
of " his house being his castle ;" .or " the law his
protection," while pauperism stares him in the face,
oppression marches i■ the rear ; his energies become
crippled ; and his last resource is emigration or the
workhouse.

, Speculation in the Corn Trade appears to have sub.
sided. The accounts of the harvest received from
Scotland and Ireland, as well as from the corn dis-
tricts nearer the metropolis, are on the whole much
more favourable than, considering the variable wea-
ther, we had reason to expect. If there be not, as
some people have apprehended, an average crop in
England, in Scotland there is no cause for general
complaint concerning it ; and in Ireland, it is affirmed,
it will exceed the last year's. In that country, it is
asserted there is a greater breadth of land under corn
than the preceding year, and in England, notwith-
standing the distress of the farmers, it is believed that
they have also cultivated more ; it is calculated so
that the extent of the cultivation will cover the
partial deficiency, and compensate for the injuries
the grain may receive from the weather. What
has been the extent •f that infary, it may be
rash, at present, to estimate. In a eflison like the pre-
sent, however, it is more probable the judgment may
rbe Waled by appsohaaiiaa than bg lope. I)esides,
the proneness of the human mind to view things in a
gloomy light, it is the Interest of numerous individuals
to propagate alarm. Nothing, however, is more falla-
cious than to calculate upon a bad return on the
whole, in consequence of bad weather at the beginning
of the harvest. When an experienced agriculturalist
was asked before the late Agricultural Committee of
Parliament, as to the average crop, and the proper
time of calculating it, he replied, that the proper time
was after the harvest was get in. In nine times of
tea, this gentleman said, the result would be found
M disappoint the apprehensions of the husbandman as
well as the calculations of the speculator. To see the
unrsalbnablenees of the spirit of speculation, we need
oaly remark the wa) in which it operates. As soon, as
it is set in motion in the Corn trade, it becomes to
move in other utiles of provision ; but, It is curious
to observe, that while it raises the price of grain,
seder pretence of the damage the crops receive
from rain, it advances the price of butter, the
prodection of which must be promoted by wet
weather. In the article of butter we are assured there
is so great an abundance, both in England and Ire-
land, that the dairy farmers are afraid of eventually
such a fall of price, as cannot remunerate them, while
at present it has hoes raised by unwarrantable spec*
Won to an exorbitant rate.

give some general understanding of what the Slave
Trade really is at present; and I humbly hope I shall
the more readily be excused this, as the naval force
of his Majesty, which' their Lordships have been

for the object of suppressing this detestable traffic,
naglaad, certainly, the whole world mast acknowlege,
