eept of the invitation of the
.to repair to Laybach, in brdet to terminate the
revolationary state of his Kingdom, this circumstance
must be regarded, as a proof that the Ktno is not de-
sirous ()luring himself in a eitotatiose to nee -iritA li-

Letters from Naples state, that in consequence of a
su dd.% squall of wind, the Vengenr, the Kevolutionaire,
and the Duchess of Berri, which composed the squadron
conveying the King, were obliged to slacken their
sails on the 14th, and put 'into the nearest harbour.
The bowsprit of the Vengeur received some damage,
but it was promptly repaired.
The King of Naples disembarked at Livonia on the
20th of December.

The Ministers accredited at the Germanic diet, have
received a confidential declaration in the name of the
Allied Sovereigns. These are therefore no longer in
doubt, as to their determination with regard to Naples.

The various and copious intelligence we have this
forenoon received from the Continent, precludes us,
in consequence of the space it occupies in our columns,
from accompanying it with any commentary, and pre-
vent us entering at any length into the interesting
topics of a domestic nature, which present themselves
to our notice. We caonot, however, forbear notic
ing the sequel of the proceedings at Dublin, of the
leading gentlemen who had appeared in opposi-
tion to the address that was proposed at the late
County Meeting there. Another Meeting was very
promptly called for the purpose of considering the
best means to be adopted in consequence of the late
outrage on the Freeholders of the County of Dublin,
and although only a few hours' notice was given of
the design, one of the most numerous and respecta-
ble meetings that had been for some time witnessed in
Dublin took place. We are under the necessity of post-
poning till Monday a detail of the proceedings, and
add only to the account which will be found in another
column, that the meeting was adjourned until Thurs-
day next, to receive the Report of the Committee,
which was then appointed.

A Cabinet Council is stated to have been held yis-
terday, which was attended by many of his Majesty'p
Ministers. The result, as reported, was, that Lord
Clonwilliam was to leave this metropolis on s special
mission to the Court of Vienna.

By the Uerman papers we learn, that a fire sud-
debly broke out in the apartments of Lady STEWART
at Vienna, which, though happily no person received
any bodily injury, destroyed property to the amount
of 200,000 florins.

The following extract from a late American Paper
exhibits the nature of the instructions sent by the
ICourt of Brasil to its Minister in the United States,
on the subject-of the present condition of Portugal
" The Portuguese Minister at Washington has sent
circulars to the Consuls in the United States, in which
he says, that owing to the present state of disaffection
in the kingdom of Portugal, the Consuls are no longer
to issue passports to vessels or persons bound to Fi-
guiero, Aveiro, Oporto, Villa de Conde, Vienna, Cor-
ninha, or to any other harbour or creek in the
northern provinces of Portugal."
The Address of the Lir.ry of London to her Ma-
jesty the Queen, voted in Common Hall, will he pre-
sented to her Majesty on Monday, the 15th instant,
by the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Sheriffs, accom-
panied by a large body of the Livery, who are anxious
to pay their respects to their Queen on this interest-
ing occasion.
In consequence of the accounts of the state of the
Marquis of Londonderry, which arrived from Ireland,
as exclusively appeared in our extract from The Dub-
lin &exist Post, it was confidently reported in the
reify that his Lordship was actually dead, and specula-
tion was attively employed upon it all the afternoon..
There appears, however, to have been as little ground
for the report as for the speculation. No iutelligeuce
has been received of the Marquis's death. His Lord-
ship was, indeed, indisposed, and in the eighty-second
year of his age ; but were he actually dead, though
Lord Castlereagh, his eldest son, would succeed to his
titles and estates, he would not be removed to the
House' f Peen, as the late Marquis was only one of
the Representative Peers, and had no British title.
Lord Castlereagh would, as has been stated, be obliged
to vacate his seat for the county of Down, for no Irish
Peer is eligible to a seat in the House of Commons, as
representative of any place in Ireland. He is now,
however, admitted by the Act of Union, to be what he
was before thai Act, eligible as a Commoner of Eng:
land, to be a representative for any English borough;
so that in ease of the change contemplated taking
place, it would only cause a few days suspension of
hie fractions in the House of Commons: 1

MRkTIN (3 AT DUBLIN.
A Public Meeting was held at D'Arry's on the Ist
ink. to discuss the hest steps that ought to be take. is
consenttence of the•late outrage pn the' Freeholders of
the County of Dublin, on Saturday, at Kilmairobilm.
From the Second Edition of The Freeman's .lortraele
immediately after the Meeting separated, we learn, that
it had been extremely numerous and highly wspeciable.
A Committee of Fifteen Gentlemen was appointed " to
consider the best means of demanding retires,' fur the
outrage perpetrated on the Freeholders pf the county of
Dublin, at Kilmainham, on Saturday last," and report
their opinion to an adjournment of the present Meeting.
to be held at D'Arcy's, at two o'clock on Thursday next.
The marked and warm thanks of the Meeting were voted
to Lord Cloncurry, for bis manly and patrietis
conduct—and it was the general sentiment of the Fete
holders, that the Government must feel itself called von
to supersede Sir Richard Steele immediately. • .

The following Requisition has been sent to. the
Lord Mayor
MT LORD—We, the undersigned members of the
Court of CommenCounci I, request your Lordship will con-
vene an early Court to take into consideration the expe-
diency of petitioning Parliament to use such measures
as in tkeir wisdom might Berta meet for effecting the
restitMloo of her Majesty's name into the Liturgy, her
restoration to her rights and dignities as Queen, and a
rigid inquiry into the unconstitutional proceedings
against her Majesty.--sth of January, MI."
The Lord Mayor has appointed Thursday next, the
11111 instant, at twelve u'clucli.

A meeting of the Irish Oentlemen now in Londoh
will be held at the Freemasons' Tavern on Tuesday
next, to address the Queen ; and for other purposes.
The chair to be taken at one o'clock.

The loyal folks at Liverpool in their arrangements
for the entertainment of the Duke of Wellington,
rrrkoned without their prod. After they had pre-
pared a room, appointed stewards, and settled all ser-
viee of the dinner•table, they limit off a deputation to
invite the Noble Diikeovhen lo! they found his ((rare
on the eve of leaving. Cheshire, to attend a special
Cabinet Council in London.

In compliance with a Requisition, signed by np-
' wards of 1:541 of the inhabitant householders of the
Borough of Lewes, a meeting was held at the County
Hall, on Wednesday last, Mr. John Ade, Gent. the
senior High Constable, in the Chair ; when an Ad-
dress to the Queen, congratulating her Majesty on
the failure of the Bill of Pains and Penalties, was
' agreed to. After which a dutiful and loyal address
to the King, praying his Majesty to dismiss his pre-
, sent Ministers, to order her Majesty's name to be in-
serted in the Liturgy, and to grant her Majesty a
suitable provision in this country, was moved and
11 carried. The Meeting was very numerous. Among
those present were Sir T. It. Kemp,
I. O. Dalbiar, D. W. Harvey, I'. Johnston,., 11. Black-
,' man, jun. and T. Cooper, i:sqrs.
We think it proper (says the Wasgoir Chronicle)
to give publicity to the following circular, which
has beet confined to those only who are supposed
to be adherents of Ministers. It shows the ways
that are followed in getting up to}•al addresses :
" Paisley, 29th Dec. le2o.
" The nentlemen who signed the requisition to the
convener of the county of Renfrew to call a meeting of
the noblemen, freeholders, justices of the peace, coin-
snissioners of supply, and magistrates of towns, to meet
at Renfrew on Thursday, the 4th January nest, for the
purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of
addressing his Majesty on the present state of the coun-
, try. earnestly and particularly request your attendance,
at 12 o'clock on that day, to support the address which
the Vice-Lieutenant of the county will have the honour
to propose on that occasion."
• Our readers in general may not be aware that
the Vice-Lieutenant of the county of Renfrew holds
one of the most lucrative offices under Government
in the West of Scotland.

A meeting of the Inhabitants of Cheltenham was
held in that town on Tuesday last, the Honourable K.
Moore in the Chair, when an Address to his Majesty
was unanimously agreed to, professing their unshaken
loyalty and attachment, but condemning the proceed-
ings of Ministers against the Queen, and praying their
dismissal from office. Thanks were at the same time
voted to the Unkeof Uloncester,Marauess of Lanolown,
Ear! (tress, and several other Peers, who took an active
i part against those proceedings in the House of Lords.
iT. (tray, Esq. the mower of the Address, commenced
his sp. ech with the following explanation of the
cause of the present meeting :
In common with every well-wisher to the peace 1
and prosperity of the town, I heg to express my
regret, that any political agitation should have been ex-
cited among us; bat when an Address, framed at a pri-
vate meotin" of a few individuals, and not in the nsnal
course Submitted to the test of public opinion and din
cession, has been ushered into the world under the title
of " Cheltenham Loynd Address," and is stated to hovel
been passed at a meeting of the inhabitants and visitants
; of the town and neighbourhood of Cheltinham, held for
the purpose of framing a loyal Address to his Majesty,
King George IV.; when that Address contains a direct
attack upon the main-stay of our liberty, the Public
Press, together with a general charge of treasonable at-
tempts, in toy humble opinion, apuhlic Declaration of the
if:habitats., of Cheltenham, at a Meeting thus regularly
convened, was imperatively called fart.
Mr. (fray concluded a long and excellent speech
with moving the Address, which was ably supported
by H. W. Harris, and R. Phelps, Esqrs. The Address
received 300 signatures in the course of three hoursi
on Wednesday. .At the bead of the little junta of
birds of passage that teamed the snug Loyal Address
alleded to by Mr. Grey, were Lord Moant-Earl and Sir
H. Pyna, Kat.

Gentry, Clergy, and Prreholders of the County of
