is pow e matter of some difficulty to compress
Into moderate compass ell the particulars that are
communicated from Correspondents at this scene of
ioisip and parade. We continue to glean from the
voluminious details transmitted the notices which we
divai most interesting and amusing to the Reader
'be accounts we have submitted have already stated
tire arrival pf the King of Prussia and his cavalcade
at the place pf debate. The reporters, after men-
tioning his Majesty's very cool reception in his own
favoured city, tarnish the following continuation of
the details :
About 11, on the 24th ult. the Duke of Welling.
ton arrived•in a splendid carriage, and decorated with
all his orders. Ms Grace remained only a short time
with the King, who was accompanied by his third
son, Prince Charles, a fine youth of 17 years of
age. Aboot half.past 11 Lord Castlereagh arrived,
in less splendid state. His Lordship was dressed
in the Windsor uniform, and decorated with the
Moe 'drawl ; but his equipage was rather like
that intended for travelling, than for convey.
ing a Minister of State to a Royal Levee. Ilis
Lordship, no doubt from economical motives, has
left his carriages and horses behind him in England,
and was drawn to-dtry by a couple of animals, which
probably never expected the honour of standing at the
gale of a noir& Court, and driven by a coachman,
mo doubt from the same stable, who did not even wear
bia.Lardship's livery.. Dearing the time that Lord
Castlereagh was in the saloon with the King,
Ms Majesty showed himself ■t the balcony to the
Crowd assembled before it, but the persons who
composed it displayed no great quickness of
•pprehension in distinguishing Royalty, nor any
euthosiastic devotion in saluting it. They at..l
towed him to stand for a few moments without
apperently knowing him; and when a sort of
acclamation was at last attempted to be raised,
its was feeble, broken, and languid. His Ma.
jeoy firaciously bowed several times, and the satisfied
multitude relapsed into the same state of edifying
silence which we remarked yesterday on his entrance.
It is said that the King observed with a slight expres.
•ion of dissatisfaction several instances of this apathy
daring his journey through his Rhenish provinces ;
and that, seeing on one occasion a boor who did not
even doff his hat in his presence, he remarked that
there would, be more respect shown on.the appear-
since of the Emperor. . Petitions are now preparing,
ii is said, both here and at Coition, against the stew
fariff, and probably a dissatisfaction with the! high
duties it imtioses may be one reason why the People
do not more zealously pay their duties of another
End.

The Emperor Alexander arrived • shoat lialf.past
pine o'clock. He found the King and his ion, with
all the great authorities of the city, at his hotel,
awaiting his arrival. The same number of guns were
fired as on the at rival of the Emperor Fiancis. From
the late hoer of his arrival, and the darkness of the
'night, he was not of course seen by those who had
assembled to gratify their curiosity with the show.
The great reciprocal visits and presentations will
lake place to-morrow.. The town to.oight is Mu,
1111/111 led, bot in such saninoer as would ',mite the
dicole of our cockneys. There are no inscriptions,
no devices, no figures, no coloured lamps., Every
'window has two, three, or more candles, stuck in
day, ,as a substitute for candlesticks. There is thus
much light, without arty disphy of taste, or any es.
ertion of fancy. Yet even this kind of illumination
Could not he prncnrrd without a little management.
Every inhabitant of the city, this meruing, got a gen.
tts hint, in the shape of an order from the Police, to
provides themselves with a super umerary stock of
candles, to testify their joy on the arrival of the Sove.
yereigsts. *mowing !he consequence of neglecting it,
they have all taketi, the hint. The town it filling
;try fast.
