The Moni teur contains a Royal Ordonnance, appointing the Pre sident and Counsellors of State, &c. in the Courts of Caseation, toc.c, The Puc de BLAcAs is appointed Am in ssador to Naples. The KING transacts business daily with some of the Ministers, and occasionally goes out. The F4oile says, " A telegraphic dispatch from Ttoulon announces the arrival of an English vessel at Marseilles on the 31 in stant, with intelligence that a treaty of peace had been concluded between Ent;land and the Dey of Algiers on the 22d of July, and that the blockade of the Algerine ports was raised on the 26th ultimo." * • The Emperor of Russia, who had returned from vi siting some of his military colonies, was about to review a camp of 45,000 men, which, it wai supposed, would afterwards break tip. The Dade quotes, from'the Augsburg Gazette, an ac count of the Turks taking Ipsara, and capturing nearly a hundred Greek vests ; but adds, that as tong as the Austrian Observer does not confirm the account, it may be vety properly doubted. The Moxitcor announcer the publication at Madrid of a Royal ordCanance, dated June 23, giving permission to foreign vessels to carry, until 31st of October next, MINEMIME. torn and pulse duty free from 4 the ports of the coast' of Galioia,Satteander, and Cantabile, to those on the south of Spain, frail San Lucas de Borrameda to Cape Creus. Foreign vessels nay in return take cargoes of fruit or other Spanish !noddle, at a duty of 4,per cent. more than is paid by Spanish ships; or they may commence by an export cargo from Spain, on engaging to return with a cargo of grain. The courier Francais has been seized by a Commisiary of Police, for inserting the sub stance of BONAPARTE'S will. The ground of the seizure is remarkable : it is stated in the order, that the testa ment of NAPOLEON contains " the crime of insult to public morals." Gatignani's Messenger says, the rentes with difficulty maintained their price on Friday, in consequence of the occurrences at Madrid between the French and Spanish soldiery. _ _ The Diario of . Madrid, of the 23d ult. contains a Royal decree, in which FYRDINAND VII. disavows all negotiations that may have been carried on in South America in his name, relative to recognizing its in dependence. Peen, AUGUST 7.—Five per Cents. 1001. 40c. 45c. eoe 45c. Brussels Papers to the 7th inst. have reached us this morning. They repeat the statement that his Majesty the Kum of GREAT BRITAIN will not visit the Continent 1 this year ; and that in one of the conferences at Johan nisberg, the measure of releasing Powers of the moond ary order from paying tribute to the Barbary Powers was discussed. For this purpose, it is said, particular pegociations will be opened by Austria. An article from Nuremberg says— . " It would be difficult to give an account of the re , .rts of all kinds which have been in circulation for some days past, relative to political affairs. Some affirm that in the conferences at Johannisberg an Ultimatum was drawn up, which was to be sent, in the names of the great Powers, to lion Pena°, Emperor of BaAzis.,l to induce him to lay down the Imperial dignity, sub-! milting to his father the King of POIXIMAL, and re suming his title of Prince Royal. a Others say it has been resolved, whatever may be the policy of the English Cabinet, that a corps of troops, furnished by the Sovereigns of the Holy Alliance, shall be embarked at one of the steal:forts of the north of Europe, to go to Cadiz, where it will be placed at the, disposal of the King of SPAIN, re assist that Sovereign in recovering his colonies in' Sodtb, America. a What is certain," adds this account, " is, that the diplomatic intercourse between St. Petersburgh and the several Cabinets of Europe has never , been so active as for this month or two past. English, french, Austrian, and Spanish couriers are continually posting through Berlin." The following are extracts : BRUSSELS, AUGUST 7. We are informed that his Majesty has ordered the Ministers to prepare for the next Session of the States General, a project of law for the purpose of reconciling the interests of agriculture with those of commerce. The Journal of the Province of Liege says, that his Majesty the King, justly protecting all the forms of worship established in this Kingdom, has just decreed in favour of the Protestant citizens of Liege, that from thii time a Protestant Church is established there, and' that the Chaplain of the garrison is for the present in vested with the office of Minister of this new Church. We mentioned some days ago, that several pigeons had been sent from Liege to Lyons, to be let loose there. One of these aerial messengers, which was let loose at Lyons on the 3d of this month, at six o'clock in the morning, arrived at Liege at 11 o'clock the same day. AUGUST 6.4 Accounts from Batavia of the 20th March bring the following news : 44 His Excellency the Governor-General has judged it to be necessary, for the purpose of obtaining a more accurate knowledge of the stare of the possessions of his Majesty in the Moluccas and Celebes, to visit them in person. He accordingly sailed on the 17th of July, first for Amboyna t accompanied by Messrs. Vander Gruff, Counsellor of the Indies; Schneider, Secretary to the Regency ; Colonel Jauffret ; Lieutenant-Colonel Sluers, his Aid-de-Camp, and Surgeon-Major Heil.— The Lieutenant-Governor, General Kock, will command in his absence. 41 We hear from Kadoe, that on the 6th of February a violent storm, with wind and hail, burst over Magellan, the capital. In less than five minutes the rain converted the environs of the great plantation into a sea, while the wind t•re up many trees by the roots. Great da mage was done, by the storm and the inundation, to the plantations and several uildings." THE KING. WINDSOR, AUGUST B.—This morning his MAJESTY heard Divine Service performed at his private Chapel, Cumberland -Lodge, by the Rev. Mr. SUMNER. The principal part of his MAJESTY'S Household were also in attendance.—This morning her Royal Highness the Princess AUGUSTA had Divine Service performed at Frogmore, before the Royal Household. Friday evening, Prince LEOPOLD left Claremont in hie travelling carriage, and proceeded for Cobham Hall, Kent. On Saturday his Royal Highness left Cobham Hall for Ramsgate, on a visit to the Duchess of Keno from which place the Prince went yesterday to Dover, and embarked in his ,Majesty's packet tke SPLTFISE, for Calais, on his way to Paris, where he is expected to remain a short time, and from thence to go on to Coburg, on a visit to his mother and other relatives. _ _ _ Saturday, the Prince ESTERHAZY, the Austrian Am bassador, and the Russian Ambassador, had interviews with Mr. Secretary CANNING, at the Foreign Office, Downing-street. Saturday, the Earl and Countess of LIVERPOOL left Coombe Wood, for Walmer Castle. Mr. Secretary PEEL is still at Brcadstairs. Saturday, Mr. Secretary CANNING was closely en. gaged at his Office, in Downing-street, and had a long interview with the Austrian Ambassador and other diplomatic characters.- Thursday, his Grace the Archbishop of CANTER. ny arrived at Rarnsgate. Same evening, Lord POWTRET and suite passed through Canterbury and proceeded to Dover, for the Continent. .RYDE, AUGUST V. , . 400 ., • t o.* Wednesday mull& the t o u t : Sows yacht inchtott off, the Pier, sal landed Lord, ot Mai tree hi' . tto Plymouth.—Asnong our numerous a rg** Earl Viscount Deerburst.

The Opera of Love in a V:Uage , was performed on Saturday night, with the novelty of Mr. W. FAR REN'S first appearance in Justice Woodcock. The effort was a successful and clever one. The headstrong ignorance of the old Magistrate had all the effect of which it is susceptible, and the garden scene, where Hawthorn surprises him with Rosetta, was acted with the greatest richness. Miss Peron sang very beauti fully as Rosetta, and executed an introduced bravura with fine spirit. Mrs. C. JONES played Madge to ad miration; and WEST was very amusing as Hodge. • PARISIAN FASHIONS Uats of dun de colon have usually a large bow to fasten the fea then, the ends of which are fringed. Leghorns have frequently a large satin bow on one side, the ends of which are fringed. Hats are still trimmed with - the bows called oseulits a vent (windmill), with this difference, that the loops of the bows are at least sixteen inches from end to end. Dauses.—Eighty out of every hundred are ON blouse, with the menebes en gigot (Anglke, leg of mutton sleeves), are very large, and tweeters (full) at the shoulder, from whence they lessen to the wrist; they appear to be self-supported, but have underneath some light material, highly starched, which is replaced as often as it loses its stiffness ; they should have but one fold at the bend of the arm. Blouse pelisses have a double pelerine, and are buttoned up the front, round worked collars are worked with them. Gloves for dress are short, and trimmed with ribbon or guile. The borden of short sleeves are also trimmed the same. The hair is dressed very high, and tittently ornamented with a wreath of roses • two large bunches of hair cover the temples. Cocovas.—The most prevailing are white, pink, yellow, blue, and were de Judie (tree of Judea), which is a pink bordering upon a Persian lilac; for gros de Naplesolaisette or nut brown is a favourite. nowaas.—Those for hats of Leghorn, or poille de Mort, are pio nies, camellia, large roses with buds, or other large flowers ; pio nies are decidedly the favourites. Steel is still so much the fashion, that Ladies' watch-cases are made of it in preference tb gold. Bracelets are worn so large, that they frequently enclose portraits in miniature. THE. ARMY. The 31st Regiment has relieved the 2d (or Queen's) at Gosport. The latter march immediately to Chatham, whence they will em bark for India, it is understood about October. One Company belonging to the First West India Regiment has been ordered from Barbadoes to Cape Coast Castle, to recruit for the Royal African Colonial Corps, the establishment of which is to be raised to one thousand effective men. Wednesday, the Marquis of Huntly, and on Thursday the Ship ley, transports, arrived at the Motherbank, with ordnance stores and lwAnds From Malta and Gibraltar. The Ist Division of the 2d, or Queen's Regiment, embarked on Friday afternoon, in the Baltic Merchant, for Chatham MILITARY PROMOTIONS.

The wheat harvest in France is nearly completed; both the quality and quantity are very good. It is generally allowed, that for the last fifty years there has not been a more abundant harvest than that now com mencing in Ireland. DUEL.—A meeting took place on Sattirday morning, a Kennington Common, between a Mr. S. and a Mr. G. Each Gentleman had his second, and a surgeon from the City was in at tendance. The party met exactly at tour o'clock, and the ground. was immediately measured: the Gentlemen then received their pis tols, and on a signal given they fired, and the ball of Mr. S. grazed the shoulder of bk. G. 'The seconds then interfered, and endea voured to bring about a reconciliation, but to no effect. Mr. S. re mained inflexible. The pistols were again delivered ; they fired again, anti Mr. G. immediately fell, the ball having entered his right side a little above the hip. Mr. S. then approached him, when Mr. G. taking him by the hand, begged his forgiveness, own ing himself in fault. The circumstances that led to this meeting wcre said to be as follow :—About a month ago, an anonymous let ter was sent to a young Lady to whom Mr. 8. was paying his ad dresses, defaming his character; in consequence of which Mr. S. determined never to let the matter rest until he found out this se cret enemy to h peace. After the most diligent search and in. quiry, he at last discovered him in the person of Mr. G. A chal lenge was immediately given and accepted, and thus Mr. G. met with the result already described. Mr. G. Is now at the house of the surgeon who attended the meeting, and is undergoing severe suffering, though in the surgeon's opinion there is no fear that the wound will prove mortal. 17se meeting was managed with so much secrecy and eepedition, that the party were-off the ground be fore the watchmen could reach the place from whence they beard the report of the listols. BRIGHTON, AUGUST 6. The closing sports of the year at Lewes to-day, we're less attractive than even those of yesterday. The Duke of YORK, as yesterday, did not honour the Course with his presence, but the Duke and Duchess of itictimoNo, Lord G. H. CAVENDISH, and a few others of titled rank, were there. SOUTHAMPTON, AUGUST t The Theatre opened on Monday evening vrlth the fron Chest, in which appeated Mr. Btrtv, the once finned Young Roscitis, as Sir Edward Mortimer._. Many visitors have this wtek taken up their abode ;it this town, and we expect a great accession to our num bers ere the Races begin, which have been pQstpon"d until Thursday and Friday next. PLYMOUTH, AUGUST 6. -i• - • The Plymouth Regatta took place on Tuesday and Wedne % d ay ; and ethibited, on the first day, much interest; four silver cups or goblets were sailed for by Gentlemen's yachts. For the first Prize; si x vessels started, and the cup was awarded to the Member fur Andover—Jack-&-Lanthorn, though the third vessel in; the twri first, Mr. Witant's Arrow, and Mr. :Wailes Sabrina, havio; rite foul of each other. The second cup was won by Mr. Wato's 4 Lai( ' beating Giulia, Emerald, Mary (yawl), Sylph, and Lord of the Isles. The third cup was won by Captain Locateaa's Betsy, beating the Woodcock and Princess Charlotte yawls. The fourth cup was won by Mr. HARRIS'S Anne, of Stonehouse, beating three others. The second day's sport presented only a Rowing Match, which was con tested in boats rowed by Women r some jealousies or misunderstand= ing prevented the boatmen stepping forward. THE POYdIS HUMBUG. A Meeting was held on Saturday, at the Poyais Land °See, Dosegate-hill, of the Poyais bond holders, who were convened by Major or Mr. Richardson, the late Poyaisian Envoy Extraordinary, to hear his renunciation of all future connection with the " Defender of the Rights of the Indian Tribes." Indeed Mr. Richardson went muck further. He not only threw off his allegiance to his Poyaisian Highness, but openly declared hostilities against the founder of the Gregorian dynasty. Mr. Richardson states, that his intercourse with M'Gregor has conviuced him of the propriety of reclaiming the pledge he gave to the unfortunate speculators in " Poyais Securities,' that hP Gregor was a fit man to be trusted with their money to work the Paulaza gold mines in the moun tains of Poyais, and build up a new State on the Mosquito shore.— Mr. Richardso n, if he see occasion, undoubtedly has a right to re claim his pledge. We only wish that the subscribers who were in duced to give their money on the faith of all the fine representations which have been made to them from various quarters, could as easily reclaim their cash ; but that we fear is, to use an expressive commercial phrase, nark in the abyss of the wildest speculation that was ever yet gravely broached to the world, not excepting even the never-to-be-forgotten South Sea bubble. Mr. Richardson has, it is said, beets a mere dupe. He is, nevertheless, obnoxious to much deserved blame for the part he has taken in these transactiens. Before be pledged Ms word for this pennyleu adventurer, it was his duty carefully to have inquired into the foundation of his title ; foe, as Mr. Richardson must now see, those who relied on hts pledge cannot call back what they base suffered to go from them, as he has done. They have Sir Gregor 24 1 Gtegor s bonds, and he has their mosey ; and we have no doubt they will both remain in the relative situation of creditor and debtor, until the Poyaisian sovereignty shall crumble into dust. Mr. Richardson ought,there fore, to have looked well to the nature of the pledge he was giving. Why did he not is the very first stage of the proceedings examine the grant made by the Indian King ? If he said, how came a passage in the last clause to escape bis observation? in which it is declared that " nothing contained in this deed shall be construed into a cession of the sovereignty of the country now held by his Mosquito Majesty." —The assumption of sovereignty by Itl'Gregor was a violation of the grant, by which it was in effect rendered null and void to all intents and purposes whatsoever. The powers granted to M' Gregor are subordinate to the authority of the Mosquito King. Supposing, therefore, that a cession by that Chief could have vested in 14' Gre gor the rights to which he pretends, the cession is not only not made, but expressly disclaimed. Yet with a knowledge of this fact, or in culpable ignorance of it, Mr. Richardson opens an office at. Dowpte-hill to sell, barter, and mortgage the lands of Poyaisi and undertakes two commissions to raise loans to the extent of Xsoo,ooo. He, besides, appears in the character of the Poyaisian Remy, and, for his services, is successively created Count de Is Cass, and Duke de las Sierras. At length, however, It suits the purposes of Greg' r the First to take from his Envoy the disgrace " of giving audiences to jobbers and stockholders."— Two Commissioners are appointed to consolidate the debts of Poy ais, and then Mr. Richardson flings his green cross and his ducat patent into his Sovereign Prince's face, and declares war against him. He discovets that 111'Gregor has no right to play his pranks as 4 Cacique of the Poyer Nation," and he purposes to establish a Payais Cumrhercial Company ! The progress of the Independence of the South American States will soon set at rest all these ridicus lons enterprises. . The " territory of royals" will be included within their limits, and any adventurer who may go forth on soy wild scheme formed in Dowgate-bill or elsewhere, will find an au thority on the spot, or in the neighbourhood, to which they muss yield. The ofscial documents of the Poyaisian State are laughable enough. It is one of not the least ludicrous parts of this affair (for we think we may, after this publication, reckon it to be con cluded), that the credentials of the Envoy, and the authority 10 raise the second loan for £BOO,OOO, are both dated at Boulogne, to which port the Cacique travelled from Paris to meet his Envoy, though it did not agree with his convenience, from prudential sea sons, to cross the channel. Rinses tesseetis, amwt. By an arrival froniß7Zl7ve learn that at the be ginning of June, Lord COCHRANE was preparing to sad with his squadron for Angola. Baron CHARLES de ROTHSCHILD has arrived at Paris from Naples; he alighted at the Grand Hotel d'Artois, where, for several days past, Baron Sotensort de ROTHSCHILD, with bis family, from Frankfort, had resided. Mrs. ROTHSCHILD returned this morning from the Continent, with her two sons, accompanied by 'Mr. Ruanstamat who proceeded on Saturday to Calais, to meet them. The whole of the buildings at Whitehall and Down ing -street, extending to the house occupied by the CHANCHLLOS of the Exemetauxa are to come down, in order to make room tot the new Public Vices inprogress; Friday the foundation stone was laid of a National School, intended for the education of 2.50 children, belonging to the district of St. George, in the parish of Camberwell. Thursday the LORD MAYOR gave a Dinner at .the Mansion-House, to the Loan Paovorr of Edinburgh, several Met . . candle Gentlemen, and to forty Members of the Corporation. The company separated at a late hour. We understand the CQmmanders in the !Loyal Navy are still to be addressed (by cohrtesy) as Captains. A duel was lately fought at the College, at Caen, be tween two French lads, respectively of seventeen and eighteen years of age, for which purpose they took the buttons off their fencing foils, and, after a few passes, they both lunged with such effect, that the foils passed through their bodies : one died instantly, and the other in four hours. The Journal de Paris, in criticising The School for Scandal, states, that there are in that Comedy seventeen characters and fourteen changes of the scenes. This sort of criticism is blue% akin to that of Jammu Burros, who went to see GARROCE, and counted the words that he spoke in the course of the performance. A COUNTRY CRICKET MATCH.—In that inimitable Work, Our Village, by Miss 'Mermen, among °tint faithful pictures of rustic life, is an admirable sketch under the above title- a sketch, although luxuriantly coloured, posso.gilig a degree of truth and beeping apparent to all who hare either pinici pated in the soul-enlivening exercise, of watched the elfowl tit•_ contending parties.
