The Swiss Diet was opened on the 4.1. of July, at Lucerne, in the usual form. The pre y speech of the Pnestetzwr stated that there was nrthirg tc, excite any uneasy feelings res, ecting the state of t e country, if all the Members fulfilled their duties, ar.ci puma the principles the best calculated to pre se:ve and to coust4lichtte t! e most valuable rortinit of their prosper r y. In the subsequent discut,sions relative to the internal concerns of Switzerland, it was urgently recommended, that no ergagements might be made with Foreign Powers to furnish a greater quantity of saldiers than Switzerland itself can supply ; because, by engaging for a larger number, they are obliged to receive foreigners into the companies to be raised, who, when the time of their service is expired, return into the country, where they settle, having lost their civil rights at htine; by entering foreign service without permis., :ion. In another place, the Governments were earnestly exhorted to take care that the schools were nowhere confided to the hands of those who fancied themelves above all law and all government. In a preceding page we•bave inserted,from the French Papers, some intelligence from Greece, with a procla mation of the Government, appointing a Commission of five members to examine and decide on the merchant vessels captured by the Greeks, as laden with ammuni tion and provisions for the Tw ks. Accounts from Syria state that most of the foreigners who had enlisted in the service of the Pacha of EGYPT, finding that, contrary to his promises, he was directing his forces and their abilities against Greece, had taken the first opportunity to effect their escape. Among those who have abandoned the Egyptian cause, are the me Counts of LANTOSCA, Piedmontese, and a great number of French and Italian veterans. . It is stated, on the authority of a letter from Trieste, in the Brussels Rapers of the Ist instant, that the Greek General GowlAs, has defeated a body of 6,000 Turks at Salona. The Turkish Commander it said to have surrendered bn capitulation, which, however, the 'Greek General declared null, because the Turks had previously massacred some of the Greek prisoners; and ih rataliation put the whole of the Turkish prisoners to the sword. A letter from Zante, of the 21st ult. states, that in the Morea, ISRAIIINI PACIIA, after having burned Ca iamata, had suffered reverses, and was in great danger from the Greeks under COLOCOTRONI. The Captain 11 4 ch a's fleet, which had suffered from the Greeks, was ' 1 s•id tie have joined the E4yptians at Suda,. in Crete, ul.cre it was ob erved by the united Greek fleets of SACTOUIUS and 1%11.0-us. l'rivate letters from France strongly confirm the statement that the French Government bad come to a resolution to recognise the independence of Hari.-- Otte letter from a most• respectable source loyal— (' The Treaty with the President DOUR. ,is con sidered here to be all but signed ; for the project which was forwarded to Hayti in the month of May, for Ms ratification, was founded on the results of the preceding negotiation." It is ex pected, that the recognition of this ancient French Colony as an independent State, will be followed up by a similar recognition of South American independence. * at 7 HE . KING.

THE DUKE Op YORK'S Lavas. —Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock, the Duke of YORE, as Commander-in-Chief, held a Levee at his Ogee in the Horse Guards • and although there were about seventy personages present, it only occupied the Royal Duke about an hour. Among those present were—The Earl of Chatham, upon his return front Gibraltar; Lord George Hill, Lieutenant-General Sir R. Ferguson, Lieutenant-General Sir B. Bolton, Sir J. Shelley, Lieutenant-General Sir John Byng, Lieutenant-General Sir W. Pringle, Sir rt. Her Porter, Sir Charles Forbes, Lord Bingham, Sir John Harvey, General Sir H. Warde, on his return front the West Indies; General Hart, Stc. Lord GWYDTR had a select party at dinner yesterday, at his hem in Piccadilly. Messrs. GREeN made a fourth ascent from the Nun's Field, Nevreastle-on-Tyne, on Thursday last. The settsnauts, Mr. Giotkair and Mr. Wzatawas Gann, left the wain the car attached to their magnificent balloon, about ten minutes before one o'clock, and immediately took a nostlsoesterly direction. When they were at the greatest height, the balloon remained stationary for about ten minutes. After being in the atmosphere for 20 minutes, and having a distinct view of the sea, which appeared almost perpendicularly under them, the aeronauts deemed it prudent to descend. They landed with ease and safety at a quarter past one o'clock, in a field a mile from Long Benton. When the aeronauts had risen to the height of about three-quarters of a mile, they distinctly, they say, observed the shadow of the balloon, on the earth, an appearance never before noticed at such a distance. --- A person o' the name of Webb has been committed to Chester Castle, under a warrant issued against him 15 years ago, he having been convicted in ISI% in a penalty of 2001. for using in Wick still in that town. He was apprehended in Stockport, through the vigilance of one of the Excise Officers, notwithstand ing be had escaped so many years. Wednesday, at midnight, a 6re broke out in a barn belonging to Mr. HAMIZIPZIM MAJOII4 of Foord Farm, Folkstone, which consumed the barn, a cow-shed, and a stack of wheat, amounting, wish what the barn contained, to about sixty quarters. A threshing machine and winnowing machine were also destroyed. Hyde Park-gate is soon to be removed to the sewer' by the Cannon Brewery, and in furtherance of the ex tensive improvements contemplated at this point, form ing OGC of the finest entrances into the B r i t i s h metro polis, St. George's Hospital is to be pulled down, and rebuilt more in the country. At the Abingdon Assizes, James IClari, a grave digger, was found guilty of attempting to commit a rape upon a child eight years old. The prisoner en ticed his victim into a nets-made grave, where he com mitted the crime ! He was sentenced to three years' ,imprisonment. S 1 1 TIMATRXS. TILE ITALIAN. OPERA. ' • Il Barbiere di Swig& was repeated last night, anti as upon the lan occasion of ks performance, Signor V at.- Lyn sung the duet, Mille sospiri, with Mademoiselle GARCIA. It was given with the same fine skill and ex pression, and called forth an unanimous encore. The heat of the weather seems to have its influence here as in all other places of public amusement. The audience was not so numerous as usual, and some pasts of the Opera were languidly performed. COVENT-GARDEN. --- This Theatre closed last night for the Season, on I which occasion Mr. FAWC&TT addressed the audience to the following effect : " Lannot Aso Churrxzwan—Custom has almost made it a law on an occasion like the present to address you; in pursuance therefore of that custom I now come to make you my bow. I will not give you a long,cirade concerning the unprecedented success of the pre sent season, nor enter into an inflated detail of what is preparing for the next. I shall merely state, that on Monday, September 26, we shall re-open ; hoping to see you here again, when deeds, not words, shall prove our gratitude. Meanwhile, the Managers, the Per- , formers, and your humble servant, beg leave to bid you a respect ful farewel." This Theatre has been greatly indebted for its pros pet ivy, during the season, to the admirable performance of the leading actors, to the general beauty of the sce nery, and to the order and good taste displayed in the stage man tgement. VAUXHALL. CORONATION FETE. The anniversary fete, in commemoration of his Ma- ' jesty's C. r. nation, took place at these Gardens last night, when the natural and artificial attracti-sns of the place, together with the state of the weather at present, which suffers nobody to go abroad by day, or remain within doors in the evening, combined to fill them with a numerous assemblage of respectable company. The decorations were upon a very magnificent scale, com prising the leading and most interesting features of former galas, with various novel devices. Amongst the latter were a number of illuminated flags, arranged along the sides of the Quadrangle, at the lower end of which the motto .'Coronation of our Royal Patron" blazed in refulgent colours, surmounted by a splendid Star and Crown, and beautifully embellished with a border of laurel in green lamps, with the ruse, thistle, and shamrock, tastefully intertwined. The variegated lamps which decorated the trees, as well those that hung in fanciful festoons from bough to bough, as those that glittered amongst the leaves of the illumi nated grove, again attracted general admiration from their picturesque effect. The entertainments were k pt up in constant succesion, from eight o'clock to mid night. Les Umbra Chinoii were presented for the first time this season,: most of the other amusements were those which we have described upon former i ccasions ; all terminating with a display of fireworks, on which M. D'Ermsr seemed to have exerted an unusual civet of talent: and speaking of artists, it is but justice to DUFFIELD, the enlightener of these Gardens for the last twenty years, to say that the peculiar brilliancy of the general illuminations, and the taste evinced in the construction of the devices, reflected great credit on , his inqauity and experience. The Coronation Anthem was performed in exquiiite style,. A new Ode in honour of his MAJESTY was also given by the vocal strength of the Gardens. Among the company present were— His Grace the Duke of Devonshire, the Prussian Ambassador, Admiral Codrington, Colonel Milani), Sir Thomas Morgan, and Major Chetwynd. PnovtDFNTIAL ESCAEE.—Yesterday evening, about six o'clock, as a plumber, employed on a house at pre sent re building in Red Lion-street, Borough, near the Town hall, aas passing along the scaffolding, a thin board, placed along the wall to supply a chasm in the scaffolding, gave way, and he way precipitated from a height of full five stories into the cellar. On being taken up, to the great astonishment of every one, he appeared to have suffered no farther injury than a cut over both eyes (that over the left rather a severe one); which bled copiously, and walked, by the assistance of two of his companions, to St. Thomas's Hospital,where it was ascertained that this was actually the whole damage he had sustained. THE LORD MAYOR'S AQUATIC ENTERTAINMENT.— Monday the LORD MAYOR gave a grand aquatic enter tainment ti? the River. The Duke and Duchess of CAMBRIDGE were expected to be of the party, but their Royal Highnesses sent apologies in consequence of en gagements of an indispensable nature. The company consisted of upwards of ISO, amongst whom were the Duke of Bausswice. Lord STOWELL, the Count and Countess Mt/fibres, Bawl MUNEUAUSEN, Chamberlain to the Duke of CAMBRIDGE, Sir WATHEN and Miss WALLER, SitJOEIN DOYLE, Captain Rovss, &c. The party left Westminster-bridge at a quarter after eleven o'clock, and reached Richmond at four. They dined on board the navigation barge, and in the evening the La dies landed at Pope's Villa, now in the possession of Sir WAVIER WALLER. The dinner consisted of turtle soup and cold dainties. Quadrilles commenced early, and continued lung, notwithstanding the extreme heat of the weather. Three bands of military music accompa nied the City Barge, which was followed by the Gold smiths and the Merchant Tailors barges, and a vast number of pleasure boats. The River in the neighbour- hood presented a most animated appearance. M. de Lalande states, that - he received, from Tantini himself (the celebrated composer) the following singular anecdote respecting one of his compositions, which slows to what a degree his imagination was inflamed. He dreamed one night that he had made a compact with the devil, who promised to be at his service on all occasions; and during this vision, everything succeeded to his mind ; his wishes were prevented, and his desires always surpassed by the assistance of his new servant. In short, be imagined that he presented the devil his violin, in order to discover what kind of a musician be was, when, to his great astonishment, he beard him play a solo so singularly beautiful, and executed with such superior taste and precision, that it surpassed all the music he bad ever heard or conceived in his life. So great was his surprise, and so exquisite his delight upon this occasion, that it deprived him of the power of breathing. He awoke with the violence of his sen sations, and instantly seized his fiddle,, in hopes of ex pressing what be had just heard, but in vain. He, however, directly composed a piece, which is perhaps the best of all his works, and called it the " Devil's Sonata!" He knew it, however, to be so inferior to what his sleep had produced, that he would have broken his instrument, and abandoned Music -- for ever, if he could have subsisted by any other means. THE NEW IRISH CATHOLIC ASSOCIATION. PROM THE DUBLIN EVENING POST, JULY 16. To-day the first Meeting of this body was held at the Corn Exchange to make the necessary arrangements to carry into eff e ct the porpoise Not prohibited by the late statute.—On the motion nr Mr. O'Connell, the Chair was taken by Mr. Redmond. Mr. O'Contrem. said, that as there were already ninety-six individuals composing the New Association * it was manifest they were sufficiently numerous to pro ceed to make the necessary arrangements for business, They must, however, act deliberately and cautiously, so as not to violate the late Statute, and, at the same 'time, to conduct the details of the future Association with effect. There was, he thought, no difficulty iii avoiding the provisions of the Statute, by acting accord. inn to the plan detailed in the Report laid before the late Aggregate Meeting. AR the details of the business should be consistent with that Report., The first purpose of the Association would be to re concile all persons of all setts and persuasions through out Ireland, and to promote public peace as well as pri rate concord. For this purpose it would be necessary to ascertain, in the districts of Ireland, the local causes of disturbance, wherever disturbance might arise, and to devise the proper methods that might be used for its extinction. They could not, certainly, apply to Parlia meat, or to the Courts of Law for relief ; but they could, through the medium of the public press, give authentic reports of such disturbances and their causes to the public. In the South and West, he felt happy in as suring the !sleeting, all was now perfectly tranquil; while, in the Nuo It, unfoitunately, the: e were disturb-. antes of the most horrible deo.tip.ion. At Magltera, where numbers of Catholics had beett.slaughteied by the Orangemen last year, and where the Catholics had since made up the difference with unsuspecting confi dence, he was credibly informed, that the Orange pro cessions there were never so numerous or so violent as this year. A Gentleman who had come into the Ilall of the Four Courts this day, stated, that in a short journey which he had made through that part of the count; y, he had to ride through no less than eleven Otange arches. Ie Coleraine, the Orangemen defeated the po lice, and when the military were drawn out against them, they forced them to retreat to their barracks. By having these circumstances authentically stated in the news papers, they might obtain redress, and if they did not, they would at least shew the public who are the Causes of the grievances of the country. Mr. PrAnixerr asked how could their grievances be made hem,. except by correspondence? and keeping rap a correspondence was, they must all be aware, prevented by the late Act. Mr. O'Cornt ELL said, that they could not certainly, without violating the statute, cot respond with - any Society ; but they might safely do so with ind.viduals: As to th grievances which he had alluded to, it was necessary to ascertain the facts, and • them to apply to them the lenitive of good counsel and good example— to resist the inuusion of party politics, especially those which, in this country, excited to ill-will and hatred among individuals. They would, by the means he had adverted to, be able to present to 11:e Irish Public a genuine picture of the causes of the ill-will which might exist among tht m, to expose the promoters of bigotry and disunion, and to point out the encouragers of Orange ptocess:ons. This would certainly be of ad. vantage, as the cure generally followed Flom knowing the causes of the disease. The next topic to which the attention of the New Association would be drawn was that cf educa:ion. The education of the Catholics was left alt gether to individual chatity, with the exception of those subscriptions which, in a'l large towns, the Protestants so liberally made at charity sermons; while there were four hundred thousand children educated by the Catholic Clergy, with out receiving the least assistance from Government. Thers was at present a large sum vested in the M 4rgais Wellesley, of which, he had no doubt, a portion %voila be devoted to the purposes of the education of the Ca tholics, if the proper condition of the schools conducted by the Clergy of that persuasion were reported to his Excellency. From the Report of the Education Com mission it appeared that the Kildare-street Society were now only fit for superintending a Model School for the instruction of Masters. He thought it right that the Cath olics ought to have another Model School in Dublin, and if that were once established, the Kildare.stieet Gentlemen would become as useless hereafter as they had been mis chievous hitherto. With sespect to education, it would be the duty of the New Associatien to inform the peo ple of England of the real state of that subject in this country. The Learned Gentleman entered into a detail of the vast sums of money which had been granted by Government to the Bible Society—a Society whose sole employment he stated to be calumniating the Irish and the Catholic Clergy. He then alluded to the Hibernian School Society, which was, he said, above all others,ve markable for ignorance and impudence combined, and never was such a set of individuals assembled as its Ma nagers. He (Mr. O'C.) then adverted to the curious assertions preached by the Rev. Mr. son-in-law of the Archbishop of Dublin (from the connection with whom, be staters, be could expect nothing else), to the Hibernian School Society, namely, that when a Roman Catholic died althorn absolution, the Clergyman went to the grave, and exhuming the body, administered that Sacrament. When be had applied to the Body for their authority in asserting this calumny, the answer he received was, that k bad best. taken from some Ecclesiastical Review so that his slay emessitim was, that it had not only been preached, but printed bt some book which he never saw. The next object of the New Association would be to ascertain the extent of the population of this country, which he considered to be at least eight mil lions, distinguishing the Catholics from the Protestants, and where it was possible, the Protestants from the lEssenters.— The forms in Mr. Shaw Mason's book would answer for this pur pose. They would have afterwards to ascertain what the Catholic Clergy were paid in their respective parishes; and probably when their Protestant neighbours saw on what cheep terms the Catholics got to Heaven, they might wish to go there at a similar rate. He then alluded to the late Burial Bill, which, he said, had come forth literally, and without a pan, a demi letter. They would build Churches where the Catholics could be buried, without having ths% relous feelings of their surviving friends outraged. He con cluded by moving the appointment of a Committee of Timmy-one, to draw up regulations for the future Meetings of the Catholic Asseciation.—The Rev. Mr. L'Estreassoe, after a few observations, seconded the Resolution, which was carried unanintoudy. Great relief from the thirst produced by the excessive heat of the summer, is derived from the cooling solstitive fruits now in prime. Persons have been known w'vh advantage to live entirely on currants, strawbeire , , cherries, and a little bread, during such fierce we deer. Sunday week the neighbourhood of Manchester was vibned by a severe thunder storm, which did souse damage at Cadkhead and Dunham. Same day, the southern part of Westmorland war visite4 by a thunder storm. The pressure of heat in the atmosphere was almost overpowering during the forenoon. The rain fell in torrent., mingled with large hail stones; while birds and beasts sought shelter from the fury of the storm. Four cows on the grounds of Mi. Peter Bramwell, at Lupton High, were killed by the lightning. On the same afternoon there was a tremendous thunder storm et Kirkby Lunsdale, and in the neighbourhood. The lightning was very vivid, the thunder remarkably loud, and the rain full in torrcors. There was a violent storut of rain, thunder,and lightning at Shield-, on Tuesday last. Thc :ant full in turrui: l / 2 was brilliant.
