The gentle an Uelicr of the Black Rod *1MS then roinmamled to require thc atten dance of the house of common* at the bar, to hear the prince regent’s speech read. 'The commons soon after appeared at the bar, preceded by their speaker when the. lord Chancellor, on the part of com misMoners, read the following speech: •‘My lerit andgei.tlrie\ ■ “We arecammit ledby hjsroyal highness the prince regent, to express to you thc deep regret which he feel* in the continu ance of uis majesty'Vlaib.eutvd indisposi tion. “Inannouncing to you the severe calam ity With which it has pleased Divine Pro vidence to visit the prince regent, the coyal family and the. nation, by the death of her majesty the queen of the unit' d kingdom.

London, January 23. The Paris papers of Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday last, were received this morning. They communicate anothe royal death that of the Queen mother Spain, Maria Theresa, consort of Cnarle* IV and mother of Ferdinand'VII. her ma jesty, expired on the 2d instant. Tin double calamity, the loss of a wile and parent, within so abort a period of eacl other, will be severely felt by the King ' Spain. The French, funds maintain a steady price at about (38f. January 23. Yesterday we received Paris papers the 22d -inst the contents ol which are not mpnetant. The chamber of deputies have been engaged only in discussing some ar rangements respecting the inode of re celving petitions, and in appointing a dep tation to attend the expiatory service, wnich was performed at St. Denis on Thursday last, for the late Kingol France. It is understood that the coronation ol his majesty tlip king of France is fixed for this 3d of May, a day rendered ever memoi able in the annals of that country, by ih return of the king in 1 & 1-1. A private letter from Paris alarms that before the eud of the 'present month, the French ministers will submit to the legis lature a law upon the liberty ol the press, and another upon the organization of tin nunicipa.'ities. The law upon the prrss t is presumed, w ill render complete liber ty to the public journals from and alte 1st Jan. 1820.

He goes daily to Casa de Camps, situated ha : f a league from Mad id, to indulge his affliction with some per suns who are attached to him- It is said that hi* ui. jesty lias residved no more to reside in the palate of the Escurial, as the mg* ut Spain have from time luimemoria ■een accustomed to do, because the re mains of ins beloved consort are deposited e Pantheon of the church of 3t Law- i cnee, the place of sepulture fertile luyai family.

Extract uf a letter from a gentleman now i|i-Wash. ington, to t.ia friend in Baltimore, daltj 3d March, 1819. “I had, for three days past, the gratifica tion of hearing your townsman, Mr. Pink ney iu the supreme court, speaking on the subjectot the right uf thestate of Maryland to tax the bank ol the United States—1 had anticipated much from thc fame ot this distinguished uiau, but he lursurpnsi- ed inv utmost expectations. Ilis speech, or rather his series of speeches, were the finest specimens cf bar-oratory I llav heard since I have been ill the United States. The memory, the fancy, and ih. judgement, were combined to pour ou t ’ important question a Hood ol light- All sorts of knowledge, and an immense varie ty of considerations were biought to bear upon it—Mr. P’s. styleis very peculiar and origiiial It is hot Jrhli, norls it Asiatic still less Attic—-it has not the impeifec rions uf the . two first, nor iioes.it, in gen oral, aim at the severe beauties of the lat ter—Nut that it is, as some have represen ted, meretricious, and ornamented with tawdry metaphors—It is, indeed, highly figurative; but they are figures that adorn and illustrate, and dignify—,It is nut the style of Socrates or lsacuk, ol Curran or Ecskiiir; though it has much of the tacili ty and flowing amplification of the latter, vet its jihraseoligy is very different—It excels in variety, felicity, and appropri ateness of diction—it is the severest logic, clothed with ihe most beautiful rhetoric— What Cicero requires from the accomplish- ed orator, Mr. P. possesses-the subtility ot a Logician, the science of a philosopher, rhediction uf apoet,and the voice and ges tures of the greatest actor—the mutter of bis speeches has bf-en worthy uf the man ner—He has spoken, con amore, of the con- titutio'ial government of this republican Empire, and its high attributes—he has convinced ids hearers, that it canimt be practically enforced so.as to secure th- pe. munent glory, safety' and felicity ot this great country, but l>y a fair and libe- al interpretation of its .poolers—'That these powers could not all be expressed in the constitutional charter—inapy of them must be taken by implication—That tli sovereign powers of the union are supreme —and, wherever they come in direct con flict and repugnancy with those of the state governments; the lattei must give way. He proved, to demonstration, that this was the case as to the institution of the bank uf the U. States, and the general powers of taxation possesss«-<! by tne slates. He shewed, that this power, unlimited and unchecked, asi*. necessmil/uiust he by the very aafure of the subject, was absolutely neonsistent with, and repugnant to, the right of thc U.S. to establish a national hank fthe power of taxation was applied to thc corporate property: or franchise or faculty of ihe bank. He illustrated this by suppos- bg, that a state should presume to tax rhe judicial proceedings of the courts of the Unit'd States, nr their ships of war, or any other of their great institution* and establishments; and proved, that thc whole machine of the National government ii ight be arrested in its motions oy the ex ertion, ii: other cases of the same power in •he state*, which was attempted lobe ex erted in thera*e of the bank. “But! should,in vain, in the compass of a letter, endeavor to give an adequate idea of the impression made by this con stitutional lawyer, and eloquent Orator, on my mind, and on the minds of hit nu merous auditors— I must, therefore, defer till wc meet, a more particular account of the various topics he touched upon.” [We insert the above wita pleasure for two reason—because it does justice to the splendid talents ot osr own townsman— and, because it shews, that even English prejudice are wearing away, 8nd giving place to more correct and impartial opini on* of our country and countryinenj SATURDAY EVEXINfi, Maucb 29, 1819.

Sis—On Thursday evening last I was accident ly led to visit the theatre, by an old friend, and a stranger to our city. Mrs. Gilfert’s Izuly Teazle was exquisitely fine. It lias been observed ot the celebrated Cooke, that he could say more w ith liis fore finger, in Richard, than others could say with their tongues- If I were allowed the com parison, I would say that Mrs. Gilfert, can say inure with her ryes—the force, the expression, which they gave, together with the great and powerful expression cf her countenance, had a icns.ble effect on myst If and on the audieifte.— Mr. Milson’s Sir Feier Teazle wis played in a manner perfectly natural. He personated the character w ell, and was highly applauded. The rest were all respectable. In the after-piece, Mrs. Young played Mary in such a manner as to elicit the plaudits of a respectable audience. .Mr. Hil- son was not quite so liappy in Richard. The character dues not suite him. Mr. Young done justice to the part assigned him. lie pourtrays '.veil the-strong passions of a villanous cast. COLUMBUS. ton TO, IIVISSIS REPtrnLtCAX. , Mr. Editot—returning to my lodgings the oth er evening, seeing nothing like the appearance of bouses, I boldly took my way, when I was sud denly arrested by a carriage (dray); the injury, iiowever, was not great, and I merely notice, that on lots where carriages are kept, there should be enclosures; and recommend an ordinance obliging the owners to iiavt it done, as others passing that way may be seriously injured. S. Mr Editor—That our country may long be the asylum of the oppressed, is my sincere wish, and that of every one who values the blessings .office government. We have (and will continue to have) many emigrants that hare been obliged to leave their country "on account of iheir torture"— such are of more advantage to the State, in the advancement of its population, than in the unna tural minglingof uur pure blood with that of blood thirsty savages, the opinion of Mr. secretaiy Craw ford to the contrary, notwithstanding.—But, Mr. Editor, with the unparalleled great increase of emigrants, since the peace in Europe, there are » part who are obliged to leave their country "jtr their crimee-," s part, sir, that imperiously de mands the attention of our magistrates, to discover and strictly enforce the “vagrant act,” which, if done, will supercede the sad alternative of Ljneh’s law. You sir, who have the journals from every part, must be convinced that, in preportfan that emigration has encreaved, so have crimes: Two attempts have been made to fire our lister city, (Charleston) and we have but just heard of the destruction of 70 house* in Petersburg.
