PRINCE AND AND PRI.VCESS OF DEN.V.IRIC

Their Royal Highnesses the Prince sad Princess or
Denmark yesterday morning visited the House of
Lords and the Commons. The visit was unexpected.
so that no particular preparations mid be made for
their reception. They arrived at the House of Loris
at eleven o'clock. In their private carriage, attended
by the Danish Ambassador, sad their own suite. Mr. 1
Lusconsbe, as officer of the Hume, attended them.
The tapestry and the splendid throne attracted marked
attention from them ; and they were particularly
pleased with his Majesty's rubiag room, the painted
chamber, &c. The party thet.ce proceeded to the
House of Commons, where they were atteaded by
Mr. Bellamy, and other of of the House. Be..
aides examining the body of the Herne and learning
memo of the peculiarities regardieg the Misisterial
and Oppusitiva Beeches, they were conducted to the
roof, where several ladies of distinction have attended,
especially (toeing the present Session, to hear the
Debates. The distinguished party next weut to West-
misstate Hall. where some offices connected with the
Board of Works described the gement' that
were made for the ►anquet, ea the Coronation of his
Majesty. They appeared to be mush stra.:k with the
extensive grandeur of the Hall, and its celebrated
roof. After having inspected the Hall for come time.
and having visited the Speaker's Loose, the party
went to Westminster Abbey; and so delighted wens
they with its various wonders, interesting astiqaities,
and renovated monuments, that they remained viewing
them for two hours. Ihe freshness of the several
statues, firm. all appearing, since the general cleaning
sad renovation, as if they were jest raised, called
firth the marked •b ion and admiration dile
Prince and Princess of Denmark. Such deep interest
did they take in the peculiar scene that here pre-
sented itself, that they apparently left the Abbry with
regret.
It may be interesting to add, that the Prince an!
Mown of Denmark, when inspecting the House of
women., seemed strongly impressed with the pewee
of that assembly, and the Importance of the debates
that sometimes took place there; and they very anx-
iously inquired whether foreigners were ever permit-
ted to be present during the progress of any of the de-
bates. They expressed a strong desire is witness owe,
of the Commons' debates. They were informed that
female branches of the English Nobility bad recently
very frequently been present at many of the debates.
taking their seats i■ the roof over the chandelier,
whence they could see and hear very well, owing to
the open work in the centrist( theceiling of the house.
Besides that accommodation. foreigners of distinction
bad been permitted to take their seats in the Mem-
bers' side gallery, directly over the Ministerial benches;

Alexander and the Duchess of Oltlenimrgko&c. had
attended to the debates from such station.

PROCEEDINGS IN PARLIAMENT.
During Tuesday eight nothing *ceased worthy of
the particular attention of any man, woman or child.
who understands the game of fox-and-goose, or that of
push-pie; weshould, indeed, have made one esceptioe.
namely, the statement of the Loan CHANCELLOR, Oa
Tuesday eight, that the Bill, brought into the other place
by Mr. CANNING, to repeal an Act passed in the reign of
Charles 11. about Catholic Peers, was, in fact, a Bill
N repeal an Act, which Act had bee, repealed mote
than a handred years ago! Now mind, this Bill was
brought in by the Right Honourable Relation of Mrs.
and Miss Hann. Nay, it was read a first time, or,
as fares we know nearly passed in the other place. in
this. very state; for, the LORD CIJANCRLtOS say., that
it was (poly owing to subseirent alterations, that the
Bail did nut actually come up to the Lords in that
state; to wit; a Bill to repeal an Act that bad bees
repealed in the reign of William and Mary ! The
Lotto CHANCELLOI, who, doubtless, do not want the
um less plague of this Bill, which he knows never
will pass, took this opportunity of saying a good thing
or two on the subject of the error in the other places
and, Lord HOLLAND having reminded him of the irre-
golarity of alln ling to what had passed in the House
of Commons, and insisted that the "mistake was sane
" consequence," the LORDCHANCELLOR replied, " that
•6 be pleaded guilty to the charge of irregularity; but that
" the ignorance displayed in arming the mestere ought
" to make that House very cautions in looking to the
" state of the law and the real purport of the measure
" before them." To be sure; fur, if a man can frame
a Bill to repeal an act that is not in existence, what
knowledge can he have on the snhject ? Can any
measure of his be a thing to he suffered to pass with-
out examioationf—The Loren CHANCELLOR appeared
to be rather/wore in one part of his speech. Some
petitioners had made the mistake too ; but, said the
Logo ensncehhon, "they may be excused, as the
" Statesmen and Legislators of the House of Cant-
" sons bad fallen into a similar error." So, as the
thing sow stood, here had been a bill to repeal an set
which had been repealed a hundred years before; and
Ws were petitions against a bill that was not now be-
ton the Lords, the thing having been changed since
It Mile its first &IMO: appearance ! The words
" Statesmen aid Legislators of the House of Cons-
" mons" must have beenfettln t'other place! And,
let It he ob d, that the Osford Scholar never per.
solved thetbing ; bet, debated away in support of the
wisdom, justice and necessity of the Act of Charles
11.! And then the House. the great; the perfect, the
astonishing. House divided, and there was a majority
for repealing the Act of Cum.!, the SECOND, which
bad been repealed mere than a hundred years before!
Lord HOLLAND said the " mistake was of no censor
" lame". Indeed ! bet, in our opinions, it was of
great consequence. It showed what sort of knowledge
Mr. Cinstsmo and Mt. Pin. and the House in general
possessed epos the subject t and the public are much
indebted to the Lotto Ciiitmtiti.Loa for the ezhibiliuu
that he has made. Before Sir Acts wore passed ; be-
, fere it was banishment for life to utter any thing tend
leg to bring either Hens. into contempt. there was a
writer, who proposed to collect persons together (to
fill &certain place) by setting is string across any of
the great entrances into London. This was, doubtless,
proposing a very promiscuous mode of getting people
Nether; but, really. with all dee reverence be it
eiroltea, we ao mese, how persons got together even in
We way could do mach more than agree to repeal bids,
which had bees related' hundred years before !
Let night, there were, it appears, only thirty-six
Ilensbere in the Honourable House. and it requires
Arty out of the six hundred and lifty-eight to begin
Isw-makiag upon any day; though, after the work is
bops, a law may be passed with a mach smaller
member present. So that, there was nothing done in
the &morsel& House last eight. is the House of
Loris. Lord LANKDOWNIII brought forward the sub.
jest of Breakfast powder; but said that he should
propose so measure, as be expected one to be proposed
he the other House. There would bare been no pro-
vocations upon the subject, if the makers and venders
if the article had called it roasted wheat or rye or
ether grain; or, doer, of wheat, rye or other grain.
Mete could have bees so prosecution is that ease.
Aid, therefore, they have, in a great MSC , them-
olves to thank for the proeecution. Breakfast powder
may moss imita inn of cope. And that the Act prohi-
bits; and especially when the price approaches any
thing like the pries of coffee. Wheat and rye, take
the average, do not now cost any thing like a peony
a pound. The less in drying would make it a peony
&Ming; the grindlog a farthing, perhaps. If, thee,
it were sold for two-pence or two-pence half-penny a
pound retail, there would be a very good profit; and
there would be no occasion for shoes fine names which
being prosecutions. ID many parts of the country
many families make it themselves. It is right that it
should be sold in towns. and ready ground, too.
I Mt. no law will be passed to protect the venders,
mien they call the article by its true name; and
indeed, we should sot be at all surprized if the nick-
names which they have given to the thing were to
cause a law to be passed to tax it. We have beard a
whisper about licenses to sell breakfast powder ; an
that, the thing will end le a pretty manner, after all ; a
scheme to check the consumption of exciseable articles,
producing the adoption of a new tax This is what
we think very likely.

" Literary have not time, to-day, to
make any remarks on the proceedings of this humbug
Society, which is. however, a very curious thing, and
waits to be very clearly explained. The intention of
this Society In its origin was precisely the contrary of
the use that is now made of it. It was founded by
DAVID IT ILLtarli, for the purpose of pioviding some
little matter for the widows and children of men who
died poor in consequence of having written against cor-
ruption. It is sow become the means of giving money
to those w►o write on exactly the opposite side. The
setae the day before yesterday, the celebration of the
.ssoi ry of this Society, presented something very
carious indeed ; bat we bare not time fur further re-
marks spoil the subject at present.
