only while the continued abroad, ouJ Umt the restoration of her majesty's name was indispeasible to her hooor. ? A proposal was then offered of a medi ation* whkh w*^ agreed to; and the next papers are the protocols of the meetings at the boose of lord Castlereagh, in St. Jsmes-?quare. At these conferences it ?was stated, on the part of her majesty, that under the unfortunate circumstan ces in which she was placed, her anxious desire for the public tranquility would mske her giro up with reluctance her wish to remain in this country; but in taking up her residence abroad, instruc tions must be given to his majesty's mi nisters to receive 8c present her at every court which she might visit, as queen of the United kingdom. As to her name being restored to liturgy, she again de manded it as a tine qua non. It was an swered, that it was the invariable eti quette that foreign courts would not re ceive sny person who hsd not been pre- 1 sented to the court of their own sove reign- But if her msjesty would con- ! dc?crnd to fix her residence either st the j court of Milan, or another in Italy, his ! ?majesty would instruct his ministers at *?ich court to >how her the due atten tions as queen cf England, but his ma jesty could not take vpon himself 10 say tiiat his recommendation would be ef fectual as to her being received as ttiecn. It is also said, that when her majesty had fixed on the place ol her future re sidence, a suitable provision (;\nd we un derstand the sum stated was 50, DO ol. a year) would be settled on her for life. The natural and dignified reply to this was?that money ought not to be men tioned, for nothing was so distant from lier thoughts. .It was not for money she contended, and it must not be aiiuded to again. Finally, she could not accept of a conditional recommendation to be re r.cived at the court where she might | tal^B tip her residence, and she must in udt upon the stipulations which had been required.? Here the negotiator broke oir. We beg leave to state, that this is a vtrjr imperfect sketch of these impor tant (focuments, the digestion of which oc? pied much time, since the minute qf such conference was not made final till after the third perusal. ? This day vrc shall procure a correct copy of the papers which will appear 10-murrow. ? In the mean time it aeems obvious that 4tn very great difficulty remains to be mmrccmcw? Her majesty having con Milled to live abroad, and the king hav ing consented to her bearing the style and title of queen, nothing seems left to settle but some recognition of the ob vious indignity of withholding her name UtcJfcuryy* -mmd off not receiving iter mim aucn public distinction as Should assure to her a becoming recep tion at the foreign court in the country where ahe may chute to reside. Surely Mil this may be done; and repost says, that the country gentlemen have yet a proposition to make by which the pub . lie inquiry may be avoided. [Chronicle. Boston Palladium Office, ) August 4. ? 5, P. M S Arrived, this morning, ship Jasper, Crooker, 40 days from Liverpool. Capt. C- has'svorcd uswith the London Globe, of the cvft.ing of the 2 2d June. The negotiation concerning the Que eo, after lasting near a fortnight, had omfiletrty fnilrd, and the result^was bfoffght to the House of Commons, and laid on the table, hut had not been taken up, as Mr. Wilberforre had given i?o tice of a motion, which he hoped still would avert the necessity of an inquiry ? -md Lord Castlercagh and ot Iters had in'pendrd their views to g.vc time for h.s mutton to b? decided. Mtich impatience had b< en manifested because Mr. W.'s motion had been de layed ouc day longer than was at first proposed, but he had pledged httnseli to make it in the evening of the 2Cd of June, (our latest date) and Mr. Tier ney had stated that he should resist any attempt at farther delay, and call for the opinion of the House. Lord A. Ham ilton had also given notice of two mo tions on the subject, one related to the order for omitting the Queen in the l'raycrs. Mr. VV. appears to have had seme conferences in preparing his mo uon. The Queen i* naid to have determined to remain in England, and to have en gaged a residence in the country. Bills for a loan of 1 2 ,0<H) ,000/. and the founding of 9,000,00(7. in Exche quer Dills are before P&rli.tmcnt. Hut the appropriations proceed in their usual Myle. Consols for account were at 70 1-8. Military and Marine Mutiny Bills were pending. Another attempt to re duce the Army had failed. The F.ast India Company have de clared a semi-annual dividend of 5 J per cent. I Jr. Watson has been discharged from prison, under the Insolvent Act. An occurrence look place on Thurs day evening, which, at the moment, ? reared a grini sensation. It was ru moured 1 hat the troops had declnrd for he queen, and had Uid down their arms. 1 >ie ciicumfctnoce arose fiom symptoms ?f a mutinous nature shown by the first >fc'.tidion of the third regiment of loot guanl*. Upon inquiry, however, it ap peared, that this insubordinate** waa not in the slightest degree connectcd with political Teeling, but had originated merely in the discontent of some pri vates at the state of the barracks into which they bad been lately removed, and at the fatiguing dutjr which they had been called upon to perform. At four o'clock yestesday morning they were marched out of town, and subsequent accounts received from - commanding .ofTicer of the left wing of the regiment, ou its 6rst day's march, is highly credi table, in every respect, to the discipline and good order of the men. Nor is the report of the feeling shown by the re maining part of the battalion less satis factory. | Dublin, June 12. | We are here in a deplorable >ituation, | in consequence of the failure of the banks. Heretofore the Dublin banks were considered impregnable, and not withstanding :U1 the ruin and dismay in j the country, tfiere was no run upon any of them. Things however art changed ! ?Alexander's bank closed this morning i ?or, more properly speaking, did not open ? and we can now unfortunately form some judgment, from experience, of the confusion and alarm which have been witnessed in the most agitated part of the south. This failure, it is thought, will do more injury than all the others put together. If any confidence had re mained it will destroy it. No one has courage now to keep any private bank er's note. Before the end of the week, 1 suppose, there will not be a private banker's note in circulation in any part of Ireland? and if three, out of all the banks, are able to withstand the storm, it is as inacn as the most sanguine now I calculate upon. The connexions of the Alexanders were chiefly in the north ? | in that quarter there has been as yet no I crash? but you may well conceive what ' it now to be expected. The notes of the 1 finn in circulation are said to amount to 500.00J/ ?Two curious anecdotes, il 1 lustrative of the distressed condition of Ireland at the prcs nt moment, are men , tioncd in conversation? 1st. Lately a 5/. ! private note was offered in Cork for a i leg of lamb, and refused. 3d. In Lime rick, a man worth 15 or 1600/. a year, had asked a party to dinner.-? As for credit, it was out of the question, and if he could not pay the butcher, the poul terer and pastry-cook in cash, he could hope for nothing to lay before his friends. He wis not without money, as he had a 10/. national note? but who could give change for so mighty a paper? His butcher could not ? neither - could his poulterer or pastry-cook. His only re source was to write to his friends, very ingenuously describing to them his situ ation, and begging that thry would defer their visit until he could pro cure either credit or change for a 10/. note ! 1 London, June 19. We received on Saturday and yester day t!?e Paris papers of Wednesday and Thursday last. The chamber of depu ties were occupied during Tuesday and Wednesday, in the discussion of the budget, wh.ch was further adjourned till Thursday. A deputation of the chamber, conducted by the count Sime on, the minister of the interior, present ed the election project to the king on \Cednesday, as agreed upon by the chamber, and the same day the above minister communicatcd the project to the chamber of peers, who ordered it to be referred to the bureaux, and fixed the further consideration of it for Friday. Paris appears to have been tranquil through the whole of Tuesday, nothing being said to the contrary in the jour nals, and on Wednesday, during the day and the evening, it is expressly staled, that the most perfect tranquility prevail ed in all quarters of the capital; Boule vard* were patroled by national guards and gen d'armcrie, but it is added they found no mob to disperse. An attempt, as already stated in private accounts, was made early on Tuesday morning to set fire to the stables of the duchess d'Angoultmc; one of the horses was hurt in consequence of some litter be ing burnt, the flames were extinguished without doing any material damage. Marshal Soult, duke of Dalinatia, is gone to his estate of St. Armand, in the department of Tarn. A new ordonnancc of police has been published at Paris, strictly enjoining all hotel-keepers, 8ce. and all persons let ting lodgings, or having inmates, to make a daily return of all persons in their houses, whether residing there as lodgers, as guests, or as friends. ?? The marquis de Villa-Piayres, se cretary general of the supreme tribunal of the inquisition, was to leave the capi tal on the 4th, in order to proceed to Genoa, where he is conveying all the furniture of his house, and even his 1? braiy Two regiments have had a quar rel at Zcrcz, but the particulars arc not yet known." We are informed by an intelligent Frenchman, just arrived from France, that some very serious disturbances have taken place at Lyons. An im mense tnob assembled, who were attack ed. and finally dispersed by the Swiss, wi h the loss, however, of at>out 300 of the 'atur killed and wounded. That the legion de la Vienna had refused to fire on the populace, and were in conse queoce decimated, and their colonel thrown into^ prison. He adds thai the ceruort will not allow any of the above particulars to appear in the journals. Morning Chronicle. PMpelooa, May Si. Saragossa letters, received by yester day's mail, state the peace o! that city to have been disturbed in consequence of the difference .between the marquis of Lazan and Gen. Haro who had been sent from Madrid to succeed the former in the military command of Aragon. It is known that the marquis, strong in the general and merited esteem of the Aragonese, refused to give up his com mand; and that government, wishing to gratify the people, agreed to his continu- j ing in the exercise of his functions. This occurrencc roused the pariizans of the late order of things, who are in opposi tion to the constitutionalisms. The for mer party had taken into pay between 3 and 400 of the lowest class to destroy the constitutional column; and, accord ingly, this band repaired, on the 14th, to the square where it was erccted with the word " Constitution" on it, for the purpose of polling it down. ? The officer commanding the guard recommended to this rabble to withdraw; but to this recommendation they replied by the cries of M The religion forever! Long live the king! Down with the constitu tion!" At these vociferations, the whole garrison, consisting of 1 regiment of foot, 1 of horse, and a company of artil lery, headed by general Haro, marched j against the mutineers, and on the latter's ; attempting to defend themselves, fired ; upon them. It is reported that about 1 20 were killed, and a great many more ! wounded. The archbishop and about 1*2 canons i have been arrested, as the authors of the j disturbance; a military commission has be-.-n appointed to try them and their ac , complices; and the marquis of Lazan, and several other persons of note, having fled, general Haro remains sole com mandant of Aragon. Interesting from Gibraltar. Norfolk, August 2. We learn from a respei mule source, that immediately on the arrival of the Columbus in the bay of Gibraltar, ar.d before she anchored, a despatch was de livered to com. Bainbridge, from gover nor Don, acquainting him with the measures of restriction he had thought it his duty to impose upon the Ameri can squadron, in March last, but that he was instructed by his government in fclantly to remove the same, and to offer to them the customary civilities of the port. Some thrift being Wken in invest igating the circumstances of this trans action, f which, of course, commodore Bainbridge was ignorant of)? and gov ernor Don having withdrawn the re strictions upon the squadron, and made satisfactory explanations respecting the conduct of his officers, salutes were ex changed, and commodore Bainbridge went on shore and visited the governor. After this the British officers who vio lated the restriction imposed upon the Gurrfere by carrying a challenge or. board to capt. Thompson and his officers, to meet the officers of the 64th regi ment, magnanimously acknowledged the impropriety of their conduct, and made satisfactory apologies to the Americans. Thus ended the second fiunic t?ar, and, like the first, to the honor of the Amer ican military character. Indeed, we are assured, that the honorable conduct of the officers of the Guerriere, on this occasion, was the theme of panegyric, even among the Englishmen at Gibral tar. Governor Don had been instructed by his government to bring the offend ing officers of the garrison to a court martial, and informed com. Bainbridge of his desire to do so, but upon appli cation to capt. Thompson and his offi cers, for a statement of facts, relative to their visit on board the Guerriere, they declined making any report whatever on the subject. ? We learn, moreover. that the British government were not well pleased with the governor for a dopting so hard a measure against our squadron on so frivolous a pretext as a private dispute between two young offi cers?and that com. lJainbridge, in his negociations with the governor, upon the subject, maintained the honor of his officers and the dignity of his country, with an independence and firmness wor thy of his character and station. It is much to be rrjuiced at that this unpleasant affair has terminated thus amicably and satisfactorily; and if we are not deceived in our judgment of hu man nature, it will be the foundation of a more friendly regard on the part of the British officers towards those of our navy on that station, than has heretofore existed, or could have existed in the common coursc of things. Commodore Bainbridge in the Co lumbus, and captain Warrington in the Guerrier, sailed from Gibraltar on the 12th and arrived at Malaga on the 16th June.? Captain Brown in the l'eacock, and capt. Perry, in the Spark, were ou: on a cruise, but were expected to put into Gibraltar, for supplies, the first fair wind. The brig Manufactor from Alexan dria, arrived at Gibraltar on the 18th June. Intelligence was received at Gibral tar on the 21st June, that the Spanish government were about tending depu ties to the South American colonies to offer terms of reconciliation.? -It was re ported that general Campana and the two colonels implicated in the horrid massacre at Cadiz, have been condemn* ed by the council of war to be shot ! and general Freyre to be stripped of all his honors and emoluments.

The pilot boat .?otus, employed by government for the use of the Commis sioners appointed by the Navy Board to make a survey of the coast of North Carolina, returned yesterday to this port. Captain Elliot, one of the Commission ers, has come home in her, the survey having been completed- The other Com missioners, who went out in her, procee ded on to the Eastward some time since: the pilot boat Wesley, also engaged in the survey, will be here in a few days,andthe revenue cuttcr employed at Ji-nithville, in a fortnight. The chart of the coast of North Carolina, according to this sur vey, differs very materially from the charts now in use, and corrects many ?important errors. SHIP OF THE LINE. We arc informed, from respectable authority, that at the drawing of the -A aval Lottery , which took place on Monday last, the ship of the line n?>w on the stocks at the navy yard in this port, drrw the name of "NORTH CARO LI N A." She will be launched, we un derstand, on the 20th of September, or the first full moon tide in that month. The figure head of this noble vessel is to be a full length portrait of the foun der of the state whose name she bears. YVe are also informed, that as soon as the North Carolina is launched, the keel of a frigate of the first rate will be laid down in our navy yard. [Phil.Centinel. Augusta (Geo.) July 22. Mr. Forsyth, our minister at the court, of Spain, has returned to Madrid. We are highly gratified to learn from a res pectable and authentic source, that Mr. F. enjoys, under the constitutional go vernment, a popularity no less flattering to himself, than it is reasonably pre sumed, will prove alike honorable and advantageous to his country. From the professions of the constitutional govern ment, the U nited States have every thing to hope; so far at least, as relates to an equitablc adjustment of our affairs with that country. T. B. Robinson, Esq. is elected go vernor of Louisiana? Edward Living ston, Esq. is elected member of con gress, to represent the district of New Orleans. Mr. Samuel Reichenbach, a Swiss gentleman, arrived at this place a few days since. We understand ho is agent for a company in Switzerland, and has conic here with the intention of purchas ing a large tract of land in this territory, for the purpose of forming a Swiss set tlement. He contemplates making a purchase in Winter's grant, on the Ar kansas river, if he can ascertain the title to be good. As soon as he can effect a suitable purchase, we understand h? will bring on from 100 to 1000 families of his Swiss brethren. [Jrkanaas Guz. Cincinnati, (Ohio,) July 18, Our harvests arc coming in most sa tisfactorily. The farms throughout our fertile country arc literally teeming with abundance. ? Wheat, of which there arc incredible quantities, has seldom been known of a better quality; and so heavy and extensive are the crops, it is appre hended, that some of it w ill perish on the ground for want of labourers to se cure it. Superfine flour has lately been sold in this market by the quantity at 82 25 per barrel.
