LA.CII A JILL Seer. 27.—The King of Pros.
sla arrived here this evening at five o'clock. Ilia
Majesty slept last night at Cologne, and entered this
city wage by the gate of Cologne, in a caliche
drawn by four horses, without any pomp or cere-
mony. Lord Castlereagh and his Lady, accompanied
by Plea or eight of his Lordship's young diplo-
matists, rode oat about half-past three o'clock to
sleet his Majesty, but did nit return with him.—

voce, and very little when he mitered the gates of
the city of Charlemagne. His Majesty proceeded
Immediately through the same crowd and in the
saes. silence to his hotel, through the street of
the Compisbad, the gayest part of the city.—
The hotel prepared for him lies in the most
beautiful part of the city, on the place of Ca-
puchins, in which there is a range of handsome
houses, shaded in front with trees that occupy
the old fosse, and is very near the lodgings of
the Emperor of Austria and Lord Castlereagh.—
The Emperor of Russia, whose arrival has bean de-
;eyed a day, owing, it is said, to a fall from his horse
at the grand review in Berlin, is espected here to-
morrow, with his Imperial brother of Austria. An
order has been issued for relays of 200 horses be-
tween this city and Cologne, 106 of which are ap-
propriated to the latter; and 74 to the former, al-
lowing 20 for accidents. The crowds in the streets
today were highly various and amusing • the Eng-
lish capering and curvetting on their blood hones;
the green livery of the Russians, with their different
orders; the Prussian officers, with their heads crop.
ped after the monkish fashion ; and the cite of the
li
town in their carriages, which seem as 'if they had I
been presented to them by Charlemagne himself, and
rebate been preserved like the relics in their churches,
for a seven years holyday exhibition. The Duke,
of Richelieu arrived here last night, as did like-
wise the Prince llardenberg. The Duke remained
at Spa from the Tuesday to Saturday morning,
and was seen walking there arm-in-arm with
the Doke of Wellington and Lord Castlereagh.—
The Duke of Wellington it not yet come, but
is espected in two or three days. Among the
numerous arrivals of yesterday I find that of Count
Bernstoff, the late Danish Minister at the Court of
Berlin, and now Minister of Foreign Affairs for
Prussia, whose appointment to this last office has
hurt the feeiings of several Prussian statesmen, who
regard the appointment of a foreigner to a place to
which thew aspired, as a proclamation of their in-
capacity. Prince Ilatafeldt, the Prussian Ambassador
at the Hague, and hi Jordan, the Prussian Council.
or of State for Foreign Affairs; Count Ojanowski,
Aid-de-Camp of the Emperor of Russia ; Count
'Nesselrode, Minister of State, and General Baron
Jomini, a native of Switzerland, at present a Ras. j
sign officer, who served in the French army under
Ney, and quitted Bonaparte after his eight from
Russia, have likewise arrived. The corps diploma-
lilac of the Emperor of Austria has been preceded
by Count Mercy, Grand Chamberlain of the Em.
refer, who came in the course of yesterday. All
the French diplomatic corps, which consist but of a
small number of persons, are already here. Besides
the Duke of Richelieu, them are only Count Cara-
mels, the French Ambassador at Vienna ; M. de Rey-
newel ; Baron Moonier, the Chief the Commission
of Liquidations; and M. Bourjot, Chief Secretary
of one of the divisions of the department of Fo-
reign Affairs. The Ultra-Royalist party in France
will be represented, it is said, at Congress, by
Madame la Baronne de Vitrolles, who has
within these too days made her appearance from
Spa. It is said that there are still some of the
Allied Powers disposed to attend to the wishes
of this party. Not one Minister of the Powers
of the second order has yet ventured hither, or
espected for any of the purposes of the en-
suing negotiation. The Marquis of Madeira,
the Portuguese Minister at Pails, has left that
capital to meet Prince Metternich, and will pro.
bably visit. Aix-la.Chapelle along with that Mi-
nister. We hear nothing of any Spanish diplo.
Watist coming to promote the -interests of Spain, as
connected with her American colones. As the fu-
ture negotiations regarding France may interest
deeply the monied 'men of Europe, a proportionate
degree of feeling has been mattifested by the great
capitalists of Europe, and accordingly many of them
,are here. We find among the list of arrivals that of
Mr. Baring, of London ; of the Meters. Rothschild,
from Frankfort • of M. Labouchere, from Amster.
dam; of M. llothmart, from Frankfort ; of
M.
Metzler, likewise from Frankfort ; and of M. Pa-
rish, from Antwerp. Mr. Baring has here his fa.
rally along with him, who lately came from Spa. As
the company at Spa is now dispersing, several of the
families from that celebrated watering-place are
flocking here. The English have amembled there
in such numbers, and with such an imposing ap.
pearance of rank and fashion, during the last sea-
eon, that the French, who make a joke on every
thing, have been accustomed to say, " tee Anglois
donnent le ton, quoit u'ils k parka pas." " The
English give the ton, though they do not speak."

COTENT•GARDEN TUEATRE.—The opera of Guy
illannering was the play of yesterday. It introdoeed
a new candidate for theatrical honours in the person
of a young Lady, who snide her first appearance on
any stage in the character of Logy Bertram. The ,
great success which has attended the exertions of
Miss STMENS in this pert, makes it no easy task
..ter a young performer completely to satisfy an au-
dience. She, however, had the good fortune to be
honoured with universal applause on singing her first
song, and she obtained an cucore in 0 ! rest thee
babe. Her voice is not so powerful as that of Miss
STEPHEN, but it boasts col siderable sweetness, and
experience will make her a valuable addition to the
vocal strength of the Theatre. She sustained her
part in the dialogue with correctness and spirit, and
the Play, upon the whole, comprehending, as it did,
the !sleets of Linen, EDISON BLANCSIABD, ABBOTT,
MSS YATES, Mrs. Danger:me, and Miss MATHEWS,
%sot off in ti tery good style.
