It is with extreme regret that we learn that his Majesty is most seriously indisposed—since his return from Scotland he has not, we believe, once quitted Carlton Palace, and his spirits are said now to be in a state to render necessary perfect repose.—The Duke of Wellington has arrived at Congress, but he also is labouring under great depression of spirits.— Nothing has transpired as yet respecting the ♦iews entertained by the Holy Alliance. A very numerous meeting of the Livery of Lon don took place yesterday, at Guildhall, for the elec..- tion of Lord Mayor for the year ensuing. The Recorder declared the show of hands to be in fa vour of Mr. Alderman Heygute and Mr. Alderman Waithman. The Court then retired to select one of those gentlemen, and on their return the Recorder announced the choice to have fallen on the former gentleman. The visiters at Harrowgate, which is now 11SU stiully full of company, experienced an unpleasant disappointment on Sunday. week. The Reverend Richard Hale, Vicar of Harewood, with his cha racteristic benevolence, had undertaken to preach a charity sermon on behalf of the Sunday school at tached to the established church at Panne!, and as the parish church, which is at the distance of from two to three miles, is so remote, it was determined that he should preach in the large room, at Low Harrowgate, called the promenade room. The place was accordingly fitted up for tl:e purpose, and at the appointed hour a large and very genteel am gregation had assembled; but just at the moment when the worthy vicar had descended from his chaise, a messenger from the Lord Bishop of Chester, now at the Granby, informed him, that as the place in which he was about to preach was unlicensed, if he proceeded with the service he woud du it at his peril. To this information Mr. Hale replied, that he had the permission of the Archbishop to preach in this unlicensed room, but that he would wait upon his Lordship at the Granby, which he did without delay, leaving the congregation to await the result of the interview. With what took place upon that tvcasion, of course we are not inflirmed, except front report, on which, in such a case, we do not choose to rely : but the result was, that the con gregation l% HS obliged to disperse without any ser vice, and the exhausted funds of the Sunday school, must be replenished in some more orthodox way. Ca the 18th instant, the Duke of Devonshire - , - visited the city of Cork, on which occasion he was waited upon by a deputation from the corporation, in order to carry into effect the resolution of pre senting his Grace with the freedom of the city.— The duke subsequently dined at the Nlansion-house, and attended the assembly-rooms in the evening.— The duke departed from Cork the next morning, on a visit to the Alarques of Thomond, at Rosiellan. ECCLESIASTICAL QUARRELS.— Ott Wednesday. the IBth instant, the Right Rev. Lord Bishop of Leighlin and Ferns, and his Vicar General, held a visitation in the church of Carlow, for the purpos e . of examining into the charges which bad b een brought against the Regiiter of the Diocess. The Register put in an exculpatory affidavit, which was deemed by the Court insufficient to acquit him of the charges, the principal of which was, " having taken the books out of the office, which had been ordered to be restored on this day :" this order not having been complied with, the Register was called upon to account fur his conduct. lie stated that the books were in the pci,sessi in of the Crown Solicitor, for the purpose of making searches relative te the living of Carlow. The Bishop asked the Hegistes if he had demanded the books as directed? This question was answered in the negative by the Register, who said, that " he would not give up the books until compelled by l a w, as th e C our t h a d acte d unfairly, and was an unjust tribunal." The Bishop cautioned the Register against contempt of Court, but he still persisted in his violent conduct, which obliged the Court to adjourn sine .

The new - Lutheran church on the north-east side• of the Singel, is burnt down, together with some of the adjacent buildings. The church was observed to be on fire about half past one, and a little after two it was all in flames. The heat was so great, that all efforts to save the nearest houses were necessarily renounced. It was felt at the distance of two streets on the Toreusluis, and opposite the church it was insupportable, notwithstanding the breadth of the Singel. The sight of the lofty cupola in flames was dreadful but sublime. The copper which covered it, and which flew in large sheets through the air, coloured the flames with varying tints of blue and green, which were speedily mingled with the brighter flames of the ardent spirit, and the dark yellow smoke of the oil with whic h the adjacent warehouses were filled. It seems certain (at least this is the general report) that the fire commenced in the church itself; and not in our of the neigh bouring warehouses; but with respect to she real cause of the misfortune, we have little more than conjectures. On account of the violence of the fire and the falling sparks, the vessels nearest the Singel, over which a very strong east wind fortunately drove the thick smoke, had to remove to another place ; it does not , appear that any of them have received muds damage. The fine church thus de stroyed, and of which little will remain but the wall round it, which is' ten feet thick, was erected in the year 1678, 1681, chiefly by voluntary do nations. The fine dome wax buil: on the model of that of St. Peter's at Rome, and as well as a semicircular building adjoining. covered with copper, which were brought from Sweden duty free, by permission of King Charles Xl. On the platform of the ad joining back building there was a large cistern of rain water, to be used in case of fire. We do net know whether it has been of any service on this occasion. Four of the adjoining dwelling -houses and maga zines are burnt, and a fifth in t ames. SLOT. 19 -The fire yesterday seems to have broken out in the lull where the plumbers had been at work, and so rapidly spread that the church was all in flames in half an hour, and soon commu nicated to the neighbouring houses and. warehouses, some of which. being fiat of spirits of wine, and other inflammable substances, added to the fury of the conflagration. The greatest praise is due to the firemen fur their extraordinary exertions, and we arc happpy in nut having beard of one accident of great consequence, only that oue of the firemen re ceived some severe bruises on the neck and hands, another on the hands only. The whole inside of the church is destroyed, the walls only remaining. Happily the books and papers were saved, as well as some valuable article*from the Consistorial Chamber. Six dwelling houses and nine warehouses are en tirely or nearly destroyed.; some others are damaged, not to any extent.. DOMISTTC TELEGRAPIE.--lhts is it very superior invention to bells. his intended to convey order, to servants, which they can instantly eseeute without the usual loss of time in going to receive a verbal command. Mr. Pearson, the in 'rotor (a resident at Boston in America), conceived the possi bility of surmounting the difficulties that walls and distance. opposed to his success, and of preventing the necessity of speech. The master is obeyed as promptly as possible, and the servant, certain of understanding his orders, need not fear . the ellects of waist of memory. Mr. Pesrsun's telegraph con sists of two dials, divided Ili the same limner ; each of the need'es is subject to the same movement at the same time, and over the same space. The communicational the movement from one needle to the other was the only difficulty in this.me. elianical problem ; this obstacle has been ingeuioesly ror mounted. One of the dials is placed in the master's room, and can be made an elegant decoration ; the other in any initiation most cony eoient to servants Every one of the divisions, which can he multiplied at pl . represents an order by an under stood signor figure ; the master poiuts the needle of his dial to the sign or command be wishes to be obeyed, and that in stant the signal is repeated on the dial fined up for the servant's use. This telegraph is easily constructed, and of very trilling espenstp. SWEEPSTAKES HILYNNINO MATCH.—A singular match was run on Tuesday over a mile circle no Epping Forest, for seventy-five sovereigns—a sweepstakes of twenty five each, between Vireo young gentlemen, Messrs. Hall, • Foster nod Shee. The match was to run one hour, and Hall was backed at 1114.11 to win. Mr. Shee resigned after com pleting the ninth mile, and at this time tbe race became a very interesting one between the other two, FOllO/1 being about live yvrds a head of his tidy y, and it was out of Isis power to get up with him. Foster won. the race easy at least by 150 yards. The following is a curious example of the alarm of the French Police, respecting the jpopular mind, and its sensi tiveness to any thiLg like satire or ridicule of aristocracy. The comedy of Jolts announced, about a week since, by the English Players in Paris--it was thought too scandalous that profligacy and knavery should be made the characteristic of the rich and great; virtue, honesty. and independence. that of the ;nor, on the stage; and accordingly .the Prefect of Police ad dressed the following .* invitation" to the manager : .• Sr a,--I mu informed that the Piece called John Ban, to be mpreaented th is evening by the English Players under your management, i s a roes farce, and might produce bad accts.— I invite you. in consequence, to change the performance, and substitute a less indecent piece.—Recove. !.

DE LAVAU." zee THE IHILIDE WIEII TWO BRIDEGROtoils.—The following serious circumstance, is the subject et so aaaaaa tiou unioapt the gossips of Lewisham and b)denlassa, and the wicinay, where all the parties are known. A 'smog lady of great tocs ial and personal attractions, was bethretbed to a 'man man of her owe rank is life. The day was Axed, and the ring boeghl that was to uuite them. In the interim the lady had to vi it a friend at Walsworth, and availed herself of sec of the days Rom which Camberwell fwir was held fur that purpose.— Ths kindness of her friends. and the amuseu.ents of the fair, detained her longer than she intended. Bnt still she was de termined to get to Syderolvaan, and proceed homewards. She was shortly overtaken by • stout young r.vn, in the workimc dress or • bricklayer, and it being now dark, she determined to keep op with. The bricklayer addressed her civilly, told her how far be wa► going, a•d offered her his protection, which she aecepted. In short the lady arrived sate at home, and the limiest layer of bricks and mortar proceeded on his journey. The evening previous to the knot being to be tied between the heroine and her intended husband, while walking together ia the fields-, perhaps laying down plans for-their future comfort and happiness, they were met by a young gen • Denman unknown to either of them, who seen ted the lady by name, inquired after her health, and hoped she felt no ill elfects from the night damp in walking home from Camberwell fair a kw nights ago.—This address greatly emb d the lady, and threw-all the thoughts of jealous Othello into the mind of bee lover, who abruptly questioned his bride as to her being at the fair witheet his knowledge The lady (mold not deny the fact, but denied ever having seen the stranger; while he persisted that he not only saw her at the fair, but conducted her sahrhome from it. The greet-eyed meineter bad now got complete possession of the bridegroom ; and after upbraiding the brides infidelity, and threatening lb • stranger with his vengeance, be rushed away, leaving her in the care of the gentleman. The lady's distress was really- indesurib , able. To be suspected of improper conduct (mold not by an iunocent mind be brooked; but to be so by her future himband, and left by kin under the care of a stranger, was beyond' suf. fering. The stranger, atter trying to soothe her mind as touch 'as possible, is reported to have said, the person who has now left you, madam, is undeserving of your hand, since I. doubts your honour. I have seem end lovedlon-for theer two years, although my humble rank prevented me the happiness of conversing with you, until escorting you home from Camber well Per you must be pleased to know that I was the gallant bricklayer, as you kindly termed me, wiles you *hook me by the hand on- your getting safely to the gate, on that cieession." The young lady had now a perfect recollection of his voice andi-person, although the latter was altered by a dif ferent dress—bat still her mind was in the greatest agitation ; and whys 'she was about to speak, her protector interruptcd ber, with saying—" Since 1 conveyed yea home from Caw berwell, my uncle, who was a builder, died, and left me as income of 7001. per annum. I am besides well acquainted with leis business. You are a bride now, and were to be married to-morrow. You must continue so for two days longer than was intended this morning, to enable me to get a licence with my name inserted thereiu as the bridegroom. On account of your character the delay cannot exeeed the time I bays— inentioned, and I shall not take any denial. I shall see yon home to-night, and explain myself at large to you and to your mother." All which was done, and the gallant bricklayer in now the happy husband of an excellent young lady ; wb le the engine! bridegroom must feel much mortified. DUEL—A baut five o'clock on Tlotrulay morning. (19th inst.) a meeting took place near the turnpike, °wilts Cork road, a small distance west of Waterford, between . Mr. Barron, of William-street, in that city, and Mr. Charles Eyre, a lieutenant in the let Royals, quartered there ; the Grauer at tended by Dr. Alcock, the latter by an officer belonging to the same corps. The parties discharged two shots each : in t:.e second fire, Mr. Barton'. ball passed through the fleshy part of Lieutenant Eyre's right thigh, and lodged in his left, fracturing a part of the thigh bone ; but we are happy to learn Vie bull was extracted on the spot by Dr. Alcock, the second of Mr. Barron, and that the wound, though serious, was ont.consider, d of a very dangerous nature. On Mr. Eyre'a tilling, Mr: Bar ton left the ground without-making any observation ' • and after the ball had been extracted, Mr. Ey re was carried h ome to the barrack by a party of his regiment, en a litter. We model. stand that the duel originated in the 'die-ontinuenee of some tentions, on the part of Lieutenant Eyre, to a lady whip is a coatis to Mr. Barron.
