TO THE .110*. [EPPEL CRAVEN, VICE-CHAM-
BERLAIN TO THE QUEEN.

We mentioned in yesterday's raper a report re-
specting a revolution in Denmark. We hate rece red
further particulars, but not sufficiently authenticated
so as to induce a full reliance on them. It is stated
that a Dr. DAMPE had organised a body of men at
Copenhagen, formed a plan of forcing open the pri-
sons; seizing, by the aid of the convicts, on all the
arsenals and magazines of warlike stores; to murder
all the high officers of state, not excepting eta*
the Kix° himself ; and, finally, to proclaim a rept.-
sentative ':onstitution. The Director of Police had
for some time been is possession of the views of this
conspirators, but postponed their arrest till the 16th
inst., that night having been fixed on for the elevation
of their plan ; all the accomplices, the draught of thi ir
intended method of proceeding, and all other papers
were seized.

There has also been a report current of soma dis-
satisfaction in the Russian army. It appears quite
unworthy of belief, and is, indeed, unaccompanied
with any corroborative circumstance.

New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and Virginia pa-
pers arrived one day later, to the 4th November. From
these we learn that the Mayor of Savahnah in an Ad-
dress to the Public. after sta►ing the full population of
the city to the amount of 9000 inhabitants, conjectures
that owing to the desertion occasioned by the prevail-
ing malady not more than 2000 souls remain.
From the New York American papers of the Ist
November, by a passenger in the ship Bayard, from
Havre, we understand that it was reported in Paris,
that a party was preparing to bring out Mr. Hyde
de Nanville, to negociate with our Government at
Washington, and it was expected that the differences
between the two countries would be amicably settled.

That this Court, chargyd as Magistrates with the
preservation of the traminillity and under of the city,
cannot but express its regret at the intimation of the
Vice-Chamberlain of her Majesty the Queen to the
Right lion. the Lord Mayor, communicated by his
Lordship to this Court, of ber Majesty's intention to
proceed to St. Paul's Cathedral, in a public manner,
un Wednesday the 29th inst. as likely to be productive,
under present circumstances, of serious inconvenience
to the inhabitants of this t ity.
That the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor be re4uesteti
to forword a copy of the above resolution to the Vice-
Chamberlain of the Queen, in order that it may be
communicated to her Majesty.

From Liverpool, of the date of Nov. 27, we hare
received a ropy of the following:—

On Thursday se'unight his Royal Highness the
Duke of Oloticester, accompanied by the Earl of
Craven, Viscount Deerburst, and Sir Archibald Mur-
ray, arrived at the Royal lintel, in Birminahatn, from
Comhe Abbey, the seat of the Earl of Coventry.
After partaking of souse refreshment, the party vi4ited
Mr. Thomason's rooms, where they remained for a
ronsiderable time; they then proceeded to some other
manufactories ; the hells of St. Phillips's Chnrch rang
a welcome peal. Out their way to Worcester, the
party stopped at the Ool,len Cross Royal Hotel,
Broomscr,vis. Ass ton as their arrival became known,
the bells of the Church were long, and they were
loudly cheered by the inhabitants as they passel
through the town. In the evening his Royal High-
UPS, with the Earl of Craven, Viscount Derrhurst,
&c. passed through the city on their way to Crooine,
the seat of the Right the Earl of Coventry.

The report of yesterday was stronger than ever, that
Ministers sere so disunited that it might truly he said
the Government was in a state of abeyance. The con-
ference of Lord Grenville on Saturday, led to no con-
elesion—that Noble Person being himself, from the
state of his health, unable to take an efficient office :
and being convinced that he has no party uf friends in
either House that could strengthen the remnaot of the
present Administration, if left by the Earl of Liver-
; pool, Earl of Harrowby, and Mr. Canning, who have
• all tendered their resignation, could give his Majesty
II no hope of success in persevering in the system which
has taken from his servants the confidence of the peo-
pie. It was said that the King hail also sent for Rarl
Spencer. We are persuaded that that Noble Earl
would give his Majesty honest, independent, and dia-
-1 interested advice. A day or two will, no doubt, bring

ARREST FOR SRDITIOuS CONSPIRACY.
Monday the Oland Inquest for WestMINIMr found a
tine Bill 'faint William Fletcher, al!te Franklin,
alias Fcrbes, And nenis O'Brc en, for--..
I. A conspiracy to excite sedition and disaffeetion
against the person and government of his late and pre-
sent Nlajestv ; and in order to effect such conspiracy, for
having published and reamed to he published dicers fedi-
dons and treasonable haaibbills and plaearde, from the
Year ISIS to the.present period.

In to, I.e suspected and be-
lieved to have been go of sedition, and to subject
them to the pains and pen 'ties in force against sedition
and seditious practices.
The Vill was not fliaini by the same Grand Jure, which
prerina4ly found a true bill against Fletcher, fur High
lreason ; so that it cannot be sail that they were preju-
diced by the evidence produced on that occapion.
As is usual on the finding of bills against a de-
fendant nut in custody, a Judge's warrant was issucu
against Mr. O'Bryen, and th,. defeadant baring braid
of the process against him, sent several times in the
course of Monday to Mr. Birnie, the Magistrate, at
Bow-street. stating that he was prepared with hail,
and requesting the worthy Magistrate to take his
sureties at that office without the form of a regular
apprehension. It being a Judge's warrant, however.
\I r. It'anie could not interfere, as he had no power to
take boil, end Late on Monday evening, Holyiand, a
constable, accomptnied by Mr. Pearson, the Attorney,
went to the house of Mr. Oliryen, and took him into
custody. There was no difficulty in obtaining access
to the house, and Mr. O'Bryell was prepared to Sur-
render himself. A person bad been previously sta.
ti!.ncd by Mr. Pearson to watch the boner, but this
precaution appeared to have been unnecessary.
Mr. O'Bryen wits taken to the Judge's Chambers,
in Sergeants Inn : but the Judge having gone home,
the il toles proceeded to the private residence of Mr.
Justice Bayley, in Bedford-square, %here the de-
l:lid-int was held to bail, himself iu MP. and two
sureties in IDOL each. The sureties were, Mr. Chris-

lead to the apprehension of others concerned in that

for a considerable time and which are principally com-
