CARLSBAD, AUGUST 4. The King of Prussia's birth-day was kept here yei terdai with much solemnity. Prince Hardenburg gave a great dinner, at which the Ausjrian Ambas sador, Count Zichy, and all the Prussians at Carls bad, and mAny persons of distinction, were present. In the evening there was a ball, to which above 400 persons were invited. But what added to the interest of the day was, that the Salons celebrated also the fete (Saint's day) of their revered Sovereign. They assembled for this purpose in another saloon of the same house where the Prussians lad their enter tainment. Prince Hardenberg, accompanied by Prince Witt. genstein and other Russians of distinction, surprized them in the most agreeable manner, by a visit, danced Polonaises with several Saxon ladies, and then invited the whole company of the Saxons with the kindness peculiar to him to join the Pmssians in the other room, and take part in their joy, as they would on their side willingly join. in that of the Saxons. The proposal was accepted; and the double fsis of the day concluded with paternal harmony. COPENHAGEN, AUGUST 94. • ROM most parts of the kingdom we hear com plaints of the wet weather, which, it is feared, will injure the harvest.

By accounts st received from Mr. READ, in South Africa, the Missionaries have met with a joyful re• ception in Caffraria, for whose arrival the minds of the Calms had been prepared by a person of that nation who had been converted to the Christian faith some time ago. They are said to be nearly 100,000 in number. The Monody upon the death of Mr. &mamas is to be spoken by Mrs. DAVISON, at Di ury-lane Theatre..

Rio Janeiro, to the ads of June, which perfectly confirm our former suritulses respecting the views of the Portuguese in their attack of the eastern bank of La Plata. The fleet s:siled on the llah, with 4,000 men in transports, who are to be landed at Monte-1 rideo and Maldonado, and about the same number are to move down from Missiones p.m! Rio Grande. In the Admits'es ship was Dr. Pleniteaa, late Secre tary of the Government of Buenos Ayres, whom the Portuguese Cshinet . had induced to accompany the expedition. This fact alone explains the ultimate object in view. We some time ago took occasion to notice, that the policy of the Portuguese Cabinet had changed since the emigration of the Royal Family to the Bra zils, and that all its views were directed to the New World. This is now beyond the smallest doubt.— Th-ir first attempt is only against one part of the anient Vtce•Roy:thy of Buenos Ayres, but they will ultimately obtain possession of the rest, since it now ungtiestionabkthst the inhabitants will coalesce with them. Tired of an itchy, diiregarded by Eng- I Ind, and uncertain with regard to their future tate after so much carnage, the people of Buenos Ayres will prefer joining a new and unshackled Empire that ips thrown off its Eutopean connections, and possesses the.same interest as themselves. baerios Ayres has been annually consuming for the' ii to i .--- Captain Candid. 16 tat -- Pau'emits. last eight years, three millions sterling of our goods, At the late races at York, Mr. Warrs's horse, awl we have been paid in appropriate returns, of c om b s c an did, who was the favourite, fell amiss which dollars formed a material part.

This morning our shore presented as melan• choly sight :—the ship Ranger, of London, Captain ATEINSoNi froM Newcastle to London, with coals, was scattered in various pieces along the shore for two ur three miles, and, I am sorry to say, all hands petished, etcepting the carpenter. A foreign ketch was seen to, go down this morning ab o ut three miles troopthis place, and all hands perished t some part of the wreck is on shore : Me appears to have been in the English service, and by so .rie papers that have came on shore, she belongs to Great Yarmouth. A fishing smack is on shore about three miles to the northward of this place; hands saved. lam fearful of much damage being done further northward, as not less than 300 sail of ships passed yesterday."

WORTHING; SEPTE.IIRER 2. • This place is very respeCtably patronized, theintfh the weather has been so.ntilainurable. ihe Dnke and Duchess of Sr. ALBAN% and Lord and Lady. CHURCHILL, are at the Soya. Hotel. Lady Dun. LEY and WARD sports a splendid equipage, daily pacing the Sands in leer cirriage with six (Itic black horses and outriders. The Duchess of RU LAND has an elegant vehicle, with four fine greys: 1.-nd and Lady DV= ate. at Summer Lodge. The manlier, as well al grandeur of the carriages which are to be seen in .the drives, indicate the consequence and fashion of the Visitants. There are many lir:uses, however, Wet ; and tle same proof of the ereat ant: grations which have taken place exists at Brighton. Some sucked w.ig:, a few nights ago, tore from se veral doors the knockers, tied them together. And sent them to Mr. WEISS, a , respectable Gentleman here ; and since this event, he has received several violent and. threatening letters, about which Meetings have been held of the principal Inhabitants, in hopes of tracing the authors. An itinerant auctioned' has been sojourning a wtaia hero, and eased some of the bathers of their lone cash. He exhibited earious articles, which in their turn attracted the Bank-notes of the Peer, and the copper of the stable boy. Sheffield and other plate writing-desks, dressing•cases. and trinkets—Woollen and other manufactures, for dress, &c. were put 'fp to his hammer. This system of supply;tht goods, though it may have its adivantages, certainly clestr..ys the reasonable expectations of the resident shopkeeptr, who, as he beers in taxes, rates, &c. a portion of the public butthens, should be properly encouraged. A Gentleman who has jest returned frotri a three weeks' tour through liants, Sussex. and Surrey, and who passed over the suite districts last year during the harvest, assures us that he inspected the crisps in both seasons very minutely, and that the advautagle is very considerably in favoar of the present sea.mi s notwithstanding its general' y stlppased adverse effects. lie obscures that Use !reads ot.W.heass this year ate ,I.genesal longer, that there are more plump grains in each head as well as more inferior ones, and that there is much less rust on the straw this year 'lranian. As to the quantity of straw throughout the above counties. it may be fairly estimated at one-hall more, and in many cases double the quantity of the pre+ . ceding crop. Latterly some very heavy crops of Her have been cut and well preserved, so that even in girl! article there is quite as much good hay in 1816 as in 1M15; besides that which is damaged or con. vetted into manure. In some places the (tamers ' have neglected to clean their grounds, from spleen at the bad times, a proceeding which they now most sincerely regret. At and round Belfast the weather has become fine, and the crop is abundant. Wednesday field of barley was cut down, com pletely ripe. in the neighbourhood of Queetniferry, near Edinburgh. Sown Ist of April. Nearly a fortnight a3o, a fine field of barley was cut upon the estate of Melville, and sold in Cuoar market at 255. per boll; the crops of every kind. (pease and beans excepted) promise an abundant harvest. Barley harvest commenced at Fochabers,.on htin day, the 26th ult. on a field of five acres, belonging to Mr. Bute—a very superior weighty crop. A letter from Greenock, dated 30th ultimo. says, 6 4 The very flattering anticipations which reach us from almost every quarter of the kingdom regarding the ensuing harvest, will, we trust, be amplyrealized. likahis quarter every thing looki thriving and vigo rous ; on the most barren soils, and where, in oidi. nary seasons, the scanty product so poorly repays the labour of the husbandsman, the finest crops are now advancing towards maturity. There are a number of hitherto sterile tracks on the other side of the river, which, we are informed, will this season yield al vino dant crops; and from personal observation we can state, that on the eastern bank of Loch Long. malty patches of corn and other graiit are now to be been, not inferior in •appearance to the growth upon the fertile lands of Renfrewshire," Saturday se'nnight there was the greatest take of herrings off Campbleton ever remembered. Almost every boat went to the quay nearly as full as they could swim. The herring fishery itt Wick, and along the coast of Clyth and Latheron, have been very abundaut this season, so much so, that some days it was corn puted that about 1,000 bindle of fish were delivered at Wick and Pultney Town, which, at the prices paid to the fishers for the crane, would amount Iv £5OO, a crane being little maw than a barrel of cited fish• The quantities of fish have been so great that the curers are now buying the crane for 6s. and same as low as Ss. For some time past the Scottish bonnet ) , boand round the bottom with velvet, with a piece of ribbon behind, has been introduced Into Glasgow as a head. dress for beys ; and a disposition has been shown by some men also to adopt it. On the night of Tuesday se'nnight, Walter Brydon, drover, from Goose Green. in the parish of Enrich, when on his way from the cattle tryst at Feebles t to Domingo:in, was knocked from his horse, severely beaten on the head, and robbed of his pocket-book.
