51.prcn.e Junta, and immurtalize its Arembersb p le as e yonr Majesty to restore to the law its . ; and there will be an end of the uneasiness we are a prey, and which will be succeeded 3y Lranquillity and applause. The immediate appointment of a provisional Government will pacify the people ; the Nation will i n dulge in the most flawing hopes ; a n d t h e se . p r one will of Ferdinand VII. who requires it, an d r ho suffers most, will be fidly complied. with, r 4. The whole nation will applaud the measure ; an d his the opinion of the Council, that, in order to rouse its spirit, depressed by the present load of evils, i t would he proper to establish a legal Government, w i t h a Bourbon at its head. And, the perfidy of our i n famous enemy having left in Spain none but the ro c! Reverend Cardinal Archbishop of Toledo and it seems as if lEAvEN had preserved him to xpport the nation under her calamiti es , an d cont i. r uallv to call to our nlinds the beloved Sovereign fcr „h orn we are fighting. Policy points out the Urgency of immediately 6iii n z up that seat, until the wished-for return of our Monarch. a His Eminence's elevated character leaves no room !cr co mpetition, and silences all possible pretensions of either natives or foreigners. Spain and the Indies w ill obey him with enthusiastic devotion ; all rivalry will be at an end ; and the Spaniards will see in his, Excellency a branch or the family of the King whom ear so passionately love. The better to ensure.the success of his adminis- t:ation, and also to ease him of past of the burden, four Adjuncts ought to be given him, of different rank; and professions, provisionally to compose the: Covernment until the next meeting of the Cortes.. V.'l:::tever matter comes under discussion, every ques ton should be decided by a majority of votes ; and they should swear to observe our laws, which are not to be altered without the concurrence of the Cortes, which the Government should convene as soon as cir ..limstances permit. Upon this subject, the Supreme Council of Spain and the Indies will prepare its observations, and lay Clem before the Government as usual. It is just and requisite that our American settlements should have :1 principal share in this national body, as they derive such strong titles to our regard from their fidelity, loyal services, donations, attachment to the King, pa• trictic zeal, and great importance. This Supreme Tribunal reserves to itself to give its opinion upon the justice of their intervention, which it will do after the most mature deliberation. " i; supposed, that the four individuals to be sp• ,primed by the-Supreme Junta until the meeting of :::c Nazional Congress, will bear a high character for trohity, religion, loyalty, skill. in their respective pro fessions, impartiality and disinterestedness. The Su. prereJu7ita inch - , which they are to succeed in the exercise of the sovereignty, will secure th, opinion of the public, and provide for its own safety, by ap poin:ing individuals endued with these qualities ; for, it thepersons elected should not rank high in the pub lic opinion, Government uould scarcely succeed in suppressing the present popular ccimplaints and sus piticni. By so doing, no doubt-" will remain in the minds of the people about the • upright intentions of the Supreme Junta '; *the iuperfor ones will cease to exercise their powers they will obtain the applause tithe whole Mtinarchj4and posterity will ever be grateful for theit -*Tikes. " XI it please' your Majesty to lend a gracious heating to this Representation, which has no other ob ject than your Majesty's glory, and the extermination of the Tyrant by whom we are oppressed."

As it may be infared, from a StateinentWhlth has appeared in the public Papers, that Loh! CAMDEN withheld from Lord Casmannann a communica tion which he had been desired to make to him, it is necessary that it should be understood, that how ever Mr. CANNING might have conceived the com munication alluded to to have been made to Lord CAMDEN ) it was never stated to Lord CAMDEN that the communication was made at the desire of Mr. CANNING; and, that so far from Lord CAM bEN having been authorized to make the commnnica tion to Lord CASTLEREAGH; he was absolutely restric ted from so doing. As it may also be inferred, that Lord CAMDEN was expected to prepare Lord CASTLEREAGH'S mind for any proposed change, it is necessary that it should be understood that L , r.l CAMDEN . never engaged to communicate to Lord CASTLEREAGH any circutn. stances respecting it before the termination of the ex. pedition. THE ARMY. The 51st Regiment has left Berry-head Barracks, Mid embarked for Portsmouth. •By the Lisbon Mail of yesterday we received let teks from several Military Correspondents, now with Lord WELLlNcros's Army in Spain. They describe the troops as being in high health and spirits. The wounded were recovering Last, and detachments of convalescents were daily arriving at the head-quarters from Elvas, to , which place they had been sent for recovery. It was reported at head-quarters (Badajos) when the above letters came away, that Lord WELLINGTON intended marching to attack SOULT at Rodrigo, in Leon. His Lordship, in the Mean time, was ex pected at Lisbon for a few days, to make some ar rangements for the further supply of his gallant army with ptovisions and stores. After the memorable battle of Talavera, the French standard taken by the 29th Regiment during the heat of action, was presented to Sir ARTHUR WEL. ittrAY. Nett day h was returned, with the following handsome letter from the Adjutant-General, addressed to the Commanding Officer : " Talavera, July so, 1809. " have presented the French Standard taken by the 29th Regiment, on the 28th insitibt, to the Commander of the Forte!, ant I am directed by his &eater" to return it to yon, that it may remain in possession of the 29th Regiment, as a testimonial of their gallant conduct. " I have the honour to be, Sir, " Your obedient Servant, " CHARLES STCWALT, Adj. Gen." The charge made ley the Ist Battalion 48th Regi ment, on the right of the Hill, in the battle of Ta lavera, drove the enemy's advancing column with great slaughter into their own lines—this closed the business of the 28th. On returning from the charge, the Commander in Chief sent a Staff Officer to desire th it Major MIDDLEMORE (Colonel DeNELAN was previously wounded) would return his thanks to i.ne Regiment for their steady and gallant conduct.— The men received the thanks of their Commander with three Oleers, and exclaimed, that on the strength of it they would give them another charge, but un fortunately they had not another opportunity, the French having retreated. The transport, No. 2.5, arrived yesterday at Yar. mouth, and has brought from Middlcburgh 97 sick soldiers, who have been landed aid sent into the hospital : very few deaths have happened among the troops brought from Flushing, in that hospital, which is attributed to the care and attention of the Medical Gentleman at Yarmouth. Yesterday Major-General 'Minims reviewed the Inverness Regiment of Militia, under the command of Major Tou.ocu, at Portsmouth : the Regiment went through the different manccuvres in a very su perior stile. The whole of the troops in the Portsmouth district arc to assemble.on South Sea Common, on the 25th, to celebrate the Jubilee. They consist of the Royal Artillery, German Artillery, Worcester, Renfrew, Du:ham, Ross-shire, Inverness, 3d Lancashire, Ox fordshire and Leicestcrbhire Regiments of Militia— The Volunteers in the district are also inviboid to make their appearance on the occasion. In consequence of the unfortunate differences sub sisting between the army on the Madras Establish. ment and the Civil Government of that Presidency, it has been determined, we understand, to remove all the refractory reginients, and to sn'mtitute others. —The regiments of the line will be brought to Eu rope. All‘the signal stations and Martello towers on the Irish coast, from Wexford to Arklow, have been dis mantled, and the stores and instruments, &c. apper taining thereto, have been recently sold, by order of Government. Very strong fortifications, connected with the old lines at the gun-wharf; Plymouth Dock, are erecting 1 for a considerable distance. An elegant mansion, with suitable offices, is also building for the residence of the Port-Admiral ; and a large depot is forming on I a neck of land called Devil's Point, for the sole pur -1 pose of storing bombs, carcases, shells, rockets, and other destructive implements of war. Yesterday a ballot was taken at the East•lndia House, for the Election of a Director in the room of Jinni Teavatts, Esq. deceased.

The Hero privateer of this port, has taken and sent in a French lugger ; she has also taken three other vessels, not yet arrived. A shocking accident occurred on Sunday night, on board the MARINER gun brig, which is stationed be tween the Island and the Main : s Five of the men be longing to her, wishing to procure a light after the fires were out, adopted the too common custom of shaking a small quantity of gunpowder from a horn into the pan of a pistol ; when the man who htld the horn, not having taken the precaution of closing the lid of the born, it exploded in the midst of them, and cut and disfigured their faces in a dreadful man , ner : it is imagined that three of them will lose their sight ; indeed their recovery is extremely doubtful.

The play was Wild Oats, with the afterpiece of Lock and Key. The pit was, as usual, thin at half price, and the disturbances - of the former night seemed, very properly, to have operated on the fair sex, not more than a dozen being present and they absented them selves before the end of the comedy. All was peace able until the fourth act, when the disturbance be• , gan, but the oppositionists were scarcely able to oh tain a victory in drowning the performers' voices, until they got recruited at the end of the fifth act ; and they had much difficulty in drowning the voices -of the vocal performers in the afterpiece. Placards in great numbers were handed round in boxes and pit, some of which were torn, and this was invariabl; followed by a combat betwixt the parties. The disputes, however, arose and terminated amongst themselves, and no police officer appeared to interfere, or take an active part on either side.— Some severe blows were exchanged, but no material injury was complained of, Amongst the placard exhibited, were the following : Ktmata's fame Is Briton's shame' " Perseverance is a Reman virtue, That wihs each godlike act, and plucks suctess, Ev'n from the spearproof crest of rugged danger." it H e has given his orders and sown the seed of his support ; but. alas! tares have sprunp up;and blast his promised harvest:' 6' The public voice."

' s I ~~/.lj A person now appeared in the front of a box cn the second circle, on the King's side, to whose watch was attached, by way of a string, a blue ribbon, its which was inscribed in 1 Irge gold letters, Old Prices. This new dev ce was greeted with the loudest ace ia mations of applause. A lady in the same circle evinced uncommon spirit by seiting two placards which were thrown from the pit, and rearing them; she threw the pieces back again into the pit.— A shout of indignation was immediately raised .:t her ; but she withstood the attack with firmness, and could not be driven from her place, greatly to the re gret of those who censured her conduct. Several orators attempted to speechify, after the whole of the performances had concluded, but they were soon put doss a fur incapacity. The Gentleman who wore the old-price watch chain then attempted to address the audience, but in effectually, and he left the house, wishing all " good night." " God save the King," and 41 Rule Britannia," were then roared forth, and before eleven o'clock the house was completely cleared. 11:14"! •-• BOW-STREET OfFICIC.—The Magistrates sat last night in a • late hour, and the only case that came before them wavtbat of :t brewer's delis. named Janie, Cattfeld, who Bret in the service of Mr. I,r ON, of the Neptune Brewery, Bell-walk, Shad well. The prisoner was bro ught out of the boxes by Ni c h o ll s , the Officer, who detected him in addressing the audience in the pit, .and exhibiting his watch, to which was attached a large put p!e ribbon, by way of watch string, inscribed on which were the wards " Old Prices," in gold letters. The noise and tumult created in the Theatre, and. imputed to his conduct,. induced the witness to watch him foestime time. For halt an hour ha continued at intervals his speeches, and afthe close Of the perfor mance he wished the audience good night In a loud voice, whick produced an universal shout of " 'Fake care of ts Protect him ;" and he withdrew, accompanied by several persons from the boxes. Shortly afterwards he again entered the boxes, at the opposite side of the house,' and chanced ict come .within one or two of that wherein was Nicholls, who availing himself of the prisoner's unprotected state, took him into custody. This state• inent was corroborated by two other witnesses. The prisoner did not deny tha . i . he had exhibited bis watch. chain, which he said wasgive to him by his sweetheart,..but de. dared that his conduct was otherwise pacific and oralerly during ,he whole evening. He was ordered, however, by Mr. Gamins( to find bail; but :he lateness of the boar, and the distance from his friends, preclue ding the possibility of procuring his sureties, he was committed fOr the night to Tothill.fields prison. The Naval Qrater, named Samuel Duelfirkl; commit ted the prece.- ling night for want of bail, was bthught up, and squired i Ito rw ognixances for his appearance, himself in 4001. and two sursti. s 2001. each, to answer any thing that might be objected to him . the next Westminster Sessions.
