each vessel. They will also be provided with every appendage used by the Greenland ships; and some experienced men in that service are to go in the vessels.

The Quotidienne contains the following paragraph:

"The Archdukes John and Lewis have given permission to a German journalist to publish some extracts from a journal which they kept during their stay in England. These princes examined with care the English manufactures and agriculture: they give also some details as to the style of living in the upper classes, which are not within the reach of all travellers. The magnificent interior of the country-seats, the taste of the furniture, the amiable and decorous freedom of their conversations, the interest which the women exeite, as much by their cultivated minds as by their charms-these are the points which struck these illustrious travellers during their abode in the country. It is there, say they, that you should study the high society of England, and even the character of all its gentlemen. London is merely a large inn; it is at his country-house that the Englishman is hospitable and amiable. The Archdukes describe the manner of dining at the Marquis of Anglesea's. It presents a novelty for our gourmands; after soup they took cold punch. A celebrated agriculturist, the Chevalier Sebright, had the Princes for his guests, and showed them his numerous machines. Miss Sebright is a savante (a scientific lady); she made an experiment in galvanism before the Archdukes, with a little galvanic battery. The Chevalier Sebright

grows such enormous turnips, that one day he sent to his sister 19 partridges in the hollow of one of these roots."

The following article, from the London Gazette of July 15, was accidentally omitted in its proper division of our Chronicle :-By His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, Regent of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in the name and on the behalf of his Majesty,

A PROCLAMATION.

George, P.R.

Whereas it has been represented unto Us, that divers misguided persons in some of the midland counties of England, have of late years committed various acts of outrage, in breaking and destroying frames used in making stockings, lace, and other articles in the frame-worked-knitted manufactory; and that, among other instances of such outrages, a most heinous one was committed on the night of the 28th day of June last at Loughborough, when a large number of such frames was broken, and an attempt was made to murder one of the persons intrusted with the care of them. And whereas it hath been farther represented unto Us, that such outrages have for the most part been prompted by a desire, on the part of the journeymen employed in the said manufactory, to dictate to their masters the terms on which the manufactory should be carried on, or the prices at which work should be done, which dictation is utterly inconsistent with the principles of justice, and destructive of the freedom and prosperity of trade. And

whereas

whereas measures have been taken, by the wisdom of his Majesty's Parliament, for repressing such outrages in future, by increasing the punishment for the same; and in the hope that such measures will effectually deter persons from the future commission of such offences, We are desirous of extending his Majesty's most gracious pardon to all those who have hitherto offended herein, cxcept as hereinafter is mentioned: We have therefore thought fit, by and with the advice of his Majesty's Privy Council, to issue this Proclamation, and in the name and on the behalf of his Majesty, We do hereby promise and declare, that every person who hath committed any offence against the form of the Statute made in the fifty-fourth year of his Majesty's reign, for the punishment of persons destroying stocking or lace frames, but hath not yet been charged therewith,

and who shall, previous to the first day of September next ensuing, appear before some justice of the peace or magistrate, and declare such his offence, and when, where, and by whom the same was committed, shall receive his Majesty's most gracious pardon for such offence; and that no confession so made by any such person shall be given in evidence in any court or in any case whatever; provided, nevertheless, that nothing herein contained shall extend to the offence so committed at Loughborough, as aforesaid, nor to any other offence, except such as may have been committed contrary to the said statute made in the 54th year aforesaid.

Given at the Court at Carlton

house, the 15th day of July, 1817, in the 57th year of his Majesty's reign.

God save the King.
