A clique prevented from sailing ilatiist the night is deprived of one, often of two days' taboos', and tlie, profits of the trade at present ate hardly sufficient, to exist by. The author of these regulations is universal lg sup posed to be the Count Viario; and as it is exactly the system against which he objected in the lonian Islands, it may be his daing. The system seems to suppose that the people were created that laws might be made —not that all useless laws are the most dangerous op pression. It should not be necessary to repeat at this day that the governed were nut made for the pleasure of the governors, brit the governors appointed and paid fur the service of the people, as Count Viirio used to re marks in allusion to the easy manner in which the Eng lish execute their work at Coda. The quarantine regulations here, likewise, are not adapted to preserve the health cf . the people, but to show that the author knows how to compile a Sanitary Code—for example. English men of war from Smyrna are put in twenty-five days quarantine ; while a Greek cruiser. whb visits all vessels off the port, returns in pratique. I have, heard a story in Germany, which, perhaps, affords a clew to the explanation of this system. Toe Amtmann of a small village kept a numerous herd of swine, and was in the habit of frequently changing his swineherd. On the evening aft& such an event, ail the neighbours were invariably aroused and kept awake all night by , the new swineherd, whO was placed in a large court, with.a long whip, in the midst of his family, and proceeded lashing them with . the greatest fury, end calling out as if haranguing them in low Oerman, to 'which they recanted cries equally discordant. Next day the swineherd and his pigs proceeded to the forest. and it was observed that these pigs knew their keeper . % voice better, and were more obedient than any pigs in all Germany. In conclusion allow me to say, that I believer nd calumny. can be greater than oda which I regret to see has found its way into the public prints—that Capo d'lstria favours lius ? ia unduly ; it was invented' at Corfu. I &incest', believe the errors of the President Woo from want of information or judgment, and that his intentions are honest and patriotic. I hue the honour to be, &e. FRENCH PAPERS.

Adder to these, she displayed in all the pi incipskeeb,, , that power of touching the heart without doing si o . knee to the judgment s which is perh.sps the so ne ,. sentlal quality of a great actress.

Her description of the lile 01 teacefsi innrcence was beautifully delivered. and the scene in which she di closes herself to the Countess created; deep sensation throughout the house, and formed, i,. deed the finest part of a performance eininehtly smoked by the grace and the power of genius. Mr. YOUNG% 'granger was a masterly wo'k. De speech in which he denounces the destroyer of his hap. piness is sublime, if the expression can be applied any effect which the drama is capable of producirl.

When Mr. YOUNG came forward to announce the repetition of the Play. for Saturday, he was received with loud cheering, and the universal plaudits of a crowded Muse.: COVENT-GARDEN. A new piece, called The soldiers' Stratums, was produced here last niet. It is a translation from the French. The story of It is soon told. Colonel Laths (Mr. Emma), having been wounded in an engagement, is carried to the Castle el -Baron Moll ~(Mr. Emcees), a stupid old Gentleman, whos e household, as far as the audience is introduced to it, coedits si a daughter, Matilda (Miss Poeta), her servant, Bertha (Nis, Humus). and a footman, ICatzback (Knave). The Colonel fah* in love with the Lady, and then discloses his passion to her fatter. who gladly receives him; but, hearing that his, younger brother Ernest (Mr. Gases!) is in the neighbowbood. and abert to 111 him, and fearing that if he sees the Lady be will became his rive. he makes his messenger drunk, and tries to prevent Ms entrants into the castle. Ernest sees in Matilda a Lady whom be has use in Paris, and to whom be has sworn eternal love. The Glad Ands his fears me mailed, end in his attempt to get rid of his brother, and in his brother's attempt to gain the Lad/, emit th e se Soldiers' Stratagems, which, it must be confessed, are monstrous clumsy ones. The Colonel says his duties as Ge. sterner of Tanks compel him to depart, and that his brother RIM go with him. Ernest reminds him that be may delegate his authority to any other dicer ; and the Colonel adopts the suuestlonly making him his deputy. aid commanding him to set Mr instantly. He then proposes himself to the Lady, who, believing Ernest is false, accepts the Colonel. Ernest makes use of his new authority to compel the Baran to turn his brother out of Mace,* on pain of bring shot, and then contrives to IM-educe himself. # short explanation serves to reconcile him with Matilda, aadhy this time another stratagem is brought to bear,,by the Colonel's having him arrested. The matter is then'fairly pet to the your; Lath's decision, who gaps, that as the has promised to take the Colneelfor bee husband, she will be as good as bet word. but confesses that she loves the younger brother better ; upon which the Colonel, *borer a strategist is an uncommonly good.natuted person, relinquishmlit claim, and Matilda is married to Ernest. Such materials for li Comedy have seldom been put together. The plot is as bare as well can be, ve in cidents new few, contrived with little ingenuity, and ex citing less interest. 'these is hardly an -itiempt at ohs. ratter; and the dialogue is excessively dull, except where an old familiar joke is stuck in. I. was head patiently, but not without di san probation, w'•ich, as the announcement that the piece would be tepeated an Si.. tuPday, was expressed loudly and unequivocally. ThelOpera of Rosins followed, in which Miss Bx: emu) appeared in the character of liosina. As her timidity wears off, her powers are developed with all the advantages that belong to them. She played with considerable gracefulness, and executed the delightful songs in the part with great ,kill and effect. A little pritice cannot fail is give her full command of the talent; she evidently possesses, and will make her a valuable acquisition to the operatic strength of the house. Tne gas in this Theatre has, from the commence' meat of the season, been offensive, and latterly it has become so much so as to cause general complaint. Lae night, during the first act of the Comedy, after various flickering., and ebbs and flows, the lights round the dress circle became extinct, and on the fall of the cer tain, Mr. Fawcerr addressed the audience upon the subject. He stated that the evening before there had been considerable difficultyrespeaing the supply of light from the same chandeliers, and that the whole of )e -terday had been employed in investigating the cause. The investigation was nut yet completed, but these was no doubt that villany had been practised by woo party or other; and be assured the audience that in quiry should not cease until all was cleared up, and that the chandeliers shoirld never again be lit until it was certain no such accident could occur. He suggested to tire audience that their convenience would be best con sulted by not again lig:iting the chandeliers which were extinguished. This p . : opootion was adopted, and as far at the effect of the perfot mantes was concerned, it was heightened by the change. After fialf-price the house was numerously attended.
