Some Asiatic Dachas, Who have been tardy, have been threatened to be put to death, unless their con tingent, arrived within the additional time granted. The Pacha of Seris has not yet been able to ePct a reconciliation with the Pacha of Widdin, and the troops of the latter do not take any part in the mili tary operations. The Pacha of Sods, on the cott ony, who has nothing to fear from the Pacha of Widdin; although he remains master of the Citadel, has profited by circumstances and seized upon all the islands on the Danube, near.

GENERAL ORDERS. Adjutant-General's Office, Regiosa, Oct. 2, 1211. Na. I.—The Commander of the Forces is desirous of drawing the ittention of the army to the conduct of the ..141 Battalion sth Regiment, 77th Regiment, and the 21 sr Portuguese ltegiment, and Major-Geueral ARlNciime's Portuguese artillery, under the command af the lion. Major-General Co Leta az ; anl of the 11th Light Dragoons and let Hussars, under Tlajor-General Aarae, in the affair with the enemy on the 25th ult. No. C.—These troops were attacked by between 30 and 40 squadrons of cavalry, with 6 pieces of catmon, supported by a division Consisting of 14 battalions of infantry, with cannon. The Portuguese artillerymen were cut down at their guns before they quitted them, but the 2d battalion sth reeintent, attacked the ' cavalry which had taken the guns, and retook them; it the same time the 77th regiment were attacked in front by another body of cavalry, epon which body they ads armed and repulsed them. -No. S.—Whilst these actions were performed, Major-General Akxan's brigade, of which , then only three squadrons on the Mend were engaged on the left, with numbers Infinitely supe xiessto themselves. 'These squadrons, charged repeatedly, sups pAtingeach other, an took above 2A prisuuers ; and notwith- . standing the issinimse superiOrity of the enemy, the post would PV .

'I he enemy's cavalry charged three Acer of the square of the British infantry, but were beaten off ; and finding, from their repeated fruitless efforts, that these brave troops were not to be broken, they were content with following them at a distance, and firing upon them with their artillery, till die troops joined the remainder of the third division, and were afterwards supported by a brigade of the fourth division. Al though the 21st Portuguese Regiment were net actually charged by the cavalry, their steadiness and determination were eonsplu cabin, and the Commander of the Forces observed with pleasure, the order and regularity with which they made all their move ments, and the confidence•they chewed its their Officers.

" Our troops have fallen back on the position Hind upon, and will lie on their arms to-night. The 11 F1 * h are very superior in cavalry, and their horses linter in capital condition, and very fine men also, e sth Foot behaved this morning in a most gallant - Style ; they killed above 500 of the enemy, whilst . Ihey had only two wounded, one a Captain. The bench charged them, and did not fire, and they kept them off very well. They retook the artillery which Major Arentschild had lost, I believe an entire bri gide ; lint these brave fellows suffered terribly after -wards from the French artillery. The enemy's ca valry were not very dashing coesidering their great superiority. One of their officers, however, died Vice a hero; for, whilst he lay on the ground, wounded, he drew his sword against a German hussar who call ed on him to surrender. He collared the officer and threw him on the ground : still he made feeble efforts to resist, when the hussar shot him dead. I have seen about 20 wounded brought in. The 11th dra goons have suffered much ; but they cut through and through the French cavalry in the most gallant stile, although they were but a handful. We were rather taken by surprise, for the moment the enemy appear ed, they charged, and took the guns from the Portu guese. It was a very grand sight to see the troops change their positions ; and the day was particularly favourable. The heavy cavalry and flying artillery arrived after the business was settled." The Carlow regiment of Militia, on their arrival in England, will march to Chichester, for the duty of that city. That fine regiment, the Leitrim Militia, from the excellences( its appearance, great steadiness, and the pitch of discipline it has auained, has become a great favourite during the short time it has been at Canter bury, and called out the praises of General Mews, the Commander in Chief of the District. Tuesday sennight, that gallant regiment, the 7th Hussars, u. !erwent a minute inspection in Dublin, by a General Officer, previous to their leaving be hind, to share in the glories of the Peninsula. Tuesday se'nnight, the volunteering from the Gal: way Militia commenced at their head-quarters in Li merick, when. 15 privates entered into the line. Monday sc'nnight two companies of the Marquis of Salisbury's. regiment, the Hertford Militia, under the command of Lientenant-Colonel Fowt.a, arrived in Limerick, from Cork, on their route to Ballinasloe ; the remaining four companies have not arrived in Ire land, though they sailed with the above division from I an English port. The gallant Lieutenant LETHAM, of the 3d or Old Buffs, who so nobly distinguished himself is Portugal, and saved one of the colours of that regiment at the battle of Albnera, notwithstanding that he was at tacked and most cruelly wounded by four Polish Lan cers, is arrived in Ireland, and is now at the seat of Ouven Lemur, Esq. of Hellen Park, County Tip perary. He is in good spirits, and is daily recovering his health and strength. • At a Quarter Assembly held at the Assembly House, Dublin, on Saturday last, the Freedom of that City was unanimously voted to Lord MARCH, son of his Grace the Duke of Rictionen, for his gallant con duct in fighting the enemies of his country in Spain and Portugal ; it was ordered to be presented, with an ad dress, in the most respectful manner, accompanied by a sword, value 20 guineas.—The Freedom of the City was likewise presented to General COLE and Lieute nant-Colonel Gooctr, for their active services and va liant conduct in the late battles in Spain.—AnAddress was then ordered to be presented toCaptain FERNS, son of Sir JOHN FERN s, with a Sword, as a token from the Corporation of Dublin, for his highly distinguished valour in the battle of Albuera. Sir JOHN FERNS, in his rising to return thanks to the Corporation for this mark of approbation of the conduct of his son, gave a detail of the gallant Officer's suffer ings : he was wounded in seven places—two sabre ;.wounds —two gun-shot wounds, and the rest from the Polish lancers; he was taken prisoner, and lax two days in SOULT'S camp nithout his wounds being Tressed ; and on Seour's retreat was robbed, stripped, and left for dead on the field, where he was found by the Arinsh Army. 'MturanvHowoun.—At the expedition to Wal , eheren, twelve of the French cannon were found ; spiked in Fort de Batz, when John Skinner, a Gre nadier belonging to the First Regiment of Foot I Guards, applied to his Commanding Officer, Colonel Rainsford, to allow him pet mission to make an at • tempt in working the spikes out, and having made „himself a tool with the assistance of some sand, he completely succeeded in unspiking them. This was considered such a meritorious act, that it was repre sented to the Duke of York, the Colonel of his Regi ment, and his Royal Highnesthaving consulted with the Officers, directions were given for an elegant die to be struck for an appropriate medal, to be present. ed to him, which took place on Sunday fortnight, it r Knightsbridge.. The two companies of Grenadian were called cut, who surrounded John Skinner, when Colonel Rainsford addressed him in a neat and an+ able speech on his meritorious conduct, and presented him with a very elegant silver medal.

She was in fine voice, and gave a moss pleasing and impressive delineation of the character she sustained ; indeed we know net, though we have seen her its the same part many times, whether we ever saw her to more advantage. The house was eery, fashionably crowded, and it is almost needless to add, that loud plaudits marked Mrs. DIEICONN'S per sonation of Clara. A song has been written on the late battle between Cribb anti Malineux, the burderrof which is very pro perly " Witach ! row de dove." • Thursdayfast, the Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Council of Glasgew, having taken into consideration the late great rise in the price of grain, and the low rate of wages wnich the manufacturing clesses are able to earn, resolved to present a petition to the Pftrece REGENT, praying his Royal Highness to adopt . audit measures as may prevent the farther un9ecessary• • consumption of the first article of subsistence in d.s edlation. A letter has been received from Wingoe Sound, by which it appears, that a fleet of '2l ships had sailed. from thence, under convoy, for the Baltic. Nearly 200 sail were at Hanno Bay, which were to take their departure; at latest, in the middle of October, and aU the ships of war, both in the Baltic and in the North Seas, were making active preparations for their return ' home. Letters from Heligoland by the Mail of the 18th instant, report, that a considerable impressment of seamen had taken place in the Elbe for the Antwerp fleet, and that the garrison of Hemburgh had been encreased by about 1000 men, who were shortly to proceed for the northward.
