Her Majesty and suite travel in four of the King's carriages and four, with two post coaches. They will sleep at the New London Inn at Exeter on Sunday night,. and leave for Bath, it is understood, on the following day, making. the journey to town by Wednesday next. The recep tion which the young Queen has met with since her landing has been most gratifying. From the fineness of the•weather at Falmouth on Saturday, the sea was covered with boats, and vessels indeed of every dee. 'scriptitsn, and the young Queen seemed to enjoy thegif. spectacle in the highest degree. The 4th corps of &gal bush Dragoon Guards, T rap. laird u Eieter, were ordeted out on . Sunday to escort ter Majesty into that city. 'Warmer, • Sept. 27. The preparations which have been . maki ng for. the reeeptiO of her Majesty the Queen of Portugal. on her landing at this place,' were completed this morning ; and as the interest excited by her arrival was very great,' numbers of respectable persons assembled at nearly hour to WitllC•A"her landing, which was anaoufted to take place this foresonn. At half-past ten o'clock, the firing from the lm. premix gave strike of her having Jeft the ship, and immediately Royal salutes were fired by his Majesty's ship Akre*, and the packet ,sloops of war. w hi c h J a y in Caftick road. Soon of ei, the Royal party were perceited from the *spine approaching toward+ it, and beiroiindid by a vast number' of boats. As they neared 'the, shore, the packets in the inner harbour begin to . t , e, which lasted till her Majestey bad, nearly reached the Shore, where she was received by' the Offi;ers of ,the Household. Lord Clinton and tie William Oremantle, and the Ambassadors. As ' soon as ahe had landed, Pendennis Castle fired a Royal salute. .en-her blajesty having reached the top 'of tho . stars ;which weir *erected for the occasion, tweat44 ur childret (about her own age), dressed in white,•wrth wreaths cif flowers round their heads, com menced strewing flowers on the pi:strata, and amidst the acclarnatinas of the 'Multitude she walked to the Royal carria„te, a distafl !df about fitly yards. Tire uetkc at this Moment was very interesting. as there could riot be less . that+ 10,006 pe'rsOas present. When her Majesty catered the carriage, it 'proceeded to the mid sion of Mrs. Eileabeth F .a. wttch was fitted up in the' best style for her reception. soon afterwards, . the Major and Corporation of falenotith, attended by se-. feral Gentlemen, presented an address to her Majesty, 'congratulating her on her safe tithed in England, &c. and during her 'stay a great many Ladles trete intro- diced to her Majesty, and had the bower of kissing her hand. After having partaken of refreshments, lier Majesty visited Grove=hill, the seat Of G. C. For; E4l. and then returned, At half:past two she set off for Trato,in one of the Royal car reageftfollowed by het' suite, and the Portuguese and Bratirla,n Ambassidors, *where she in..; tends_to remain fur the night, and will afterwards pro.' ceallhaLandon .

The 'soldiers fromPeidennis.Castle. apt marines from his Majesty's ship Astiea, also aratklasitkntt• in short, every passible respect was paid , to..tbe rightful Sows , . reign of Portugal, and as suds shis au welcomed to the shares 01 Britain. .- ANOtEIER LAMM, SAMS DATE. Her Maje 4 l Donna Maria, ldueenot Portugal, landed this =mains at 11 O'cletk from the Imperatfriz frigate, in the state _barge belonging to that vessel, under ap propriate salates from the tons and shippina the latter baying their yards manned, and escorted by upwards of 100 boath decorated with flags, flowers, and ever greens. The Weather being rematkably fine, the sight Was most imposing and intresting, and her youthful Majesty appeared quite gratified with the warm serer., tiro she esperienced from the inhabitants of Falmouth and its vicinity. A tight of stairs waserected at the Town Only, covered with Scarlet cloth, by which her Majesty landed, and on ascending the steps she . Wras received by' tquiClioton and Sir W. Fremantle, Governor Fepyrick, the; Brazilian and Pot raguese Nobility and staffahe Bra- Ohms Consul du. by whom she was escorted t • the Xing's private CIIII iage, about 200 yards in front, through a file of honorary police (under the orders and com mand of Barnard Pellet., Esq. Collector of the Custom.. es High Constable), with rosettes to their breasts, armed with pikes, and preceded by a hundred ',spec tabledittle girls of her own age (ten years), dressed in white, with garlands round their heads, who strewed the Qtreen's path a ith. flowers as she moved forward on the platform elected for the purpose: On entering the carriage, she was driven to the raidence of Mrs. Eliza beth - For, at . Arwenack, where. a Court'was formerh with guard of honour, .&c. and soon afterthe Mayor, Corporation, and respectable inhabitants,- in stand ino ertesioo, with insignia of office, &c. wore. iinusducesi, whew ao appropriate address was delivered - by theiforw. astir, congratulatory of her arrival in this cauturt; so, which the Queen, yQuag as she is, delivered. a lrioa VP= replpr in Portuguese, whir* was interpreted alterwasds by the Marquis of Barbara*. TheGentienten were then introduced successively by•Lord•Chrison k and bad she honour of kissing her hiajesty's hand. Aftersoing through a variety of formal ceremonies, inhibiting herself to the populace, who heartily cheered, hero ke.ahe partook of a handsome dinner, provided by the worthy hostess aud her family, and at three r.

The Queen is undoubtedly a most interest ing aci d agr eeable personage, and appears to be 14 or 15 years of age. This day, according indulual custom, the new Sheriffs of London rued Middlesex were presentid bj. the Ite- CORDER to the Cursitor Edon in the Court: of ExChe quer, Westminster.

The Proprietors of this Theatre last nigl.t favoured :heir friends with a private view of the alterations and embellishments it.has undergiine dui ing the recess. The ceiling has been newly painted, and this so gracefully, !hot it may challenge competition as a model of taste. The light f the chandelier stillf.lls in the san e pleasing manner on the proscenium, and adds greatly to the beauty of its appearance. With' respect to the boxes. the exterior has been newly painted and re.gilded ; but a very material'addition has been effected in the second circle; `chandeliers have bettt added. pod now leave nothing rot the frequenters of that tier to corn- - plain of. The saloons have likewise been aeiorated and ,embellished in an extremely handsomeatyle,lnd indeed, , every part of the house has been renovated in its ap pearance, but not altered. -The-chief attraction last night was the production of a mignificient dkop cur• tali); designed and executed by that able and distin guished artist, Mr. Roamers. The design is a temple, proposed to be erected in the metropolis in himoist of SHMISIPTA 112. It represents the immortal bard leaning ,upon a pillar, while he is supported on his right hind .by Tragedy and on the other by Comedy. Surrounding him are the nine muses, Terpsichore and Calliope being the most prominent; while is the back ground is seen St. Paul's and its smoky atmosphere. The persective is well preserves!, and the effect of light and shade stk.' played was really splendid. Nothing can' in fact be conceived more beautiful than the gradual rise of the light from almost utter darkness to a bright sunny ap • pearance. The company present noticed it with con. tinued, and we may add, merited marks of applause. Alter tbeAptetatCrs bad been gratified with them). ethics, some beautiful scenery. also painted by Roaeats, was shown. The ruins of a Greek Temple and Aniphs 'theatre, called forth the applause of the company. The advantage of decoration.. will not be wanting in the approaching season. Every arrangement amps to have . been made to provide the bet accommodation fin' the public, and to render the Theotre seenthy to receive the most exalted persons in the realm. - z ---- • • _••., - • •THE ADELPHI THEATRE. Ibis Theatre opened last evening for the ensuing sew tin. under the joint management of Messrs. Mathews :and YAW. The first part of the entertainment con sisted of a piece de circonstance, called Wanted a Partner, .the object of which is to explain to the audience the cir ichnistances under which the new managers present !themselves. Mr. YAM, in his own proper character of propritior of the theatre. is in some perpl, xity at being left with the whole conduct of the theatre upon 'his hands, and to Meet some pressing demands, he in serts an advertisement in the public papers for a partner who will share with him the cites and'the responsibili ties of his undertaking. He has proposed as an inflexi ble condition iAhis ativertisemenr, that the new partner shall not be an actor. - MATHEws presents himself to answer the advertiseinent, and, by way of practical re 'proof on his friend, comes in the assumed character.of a Scotchman, who, among a great many valuable sug gestions for reducing the expenses of the theatre, by clipping the salaries •of actors, scene-painters, and every body else, reccinimendi Macbeth being played ' 4. in his native dialect." He wishes to act Macbeth himself. and gives a specimen of the manner in which he would do it, which is irresistibly ludicrous. In con sequence of his insisting on this, they part, Mr. YATHS being determined not to have an acting partner, and Iktirtraws re-appears as the fashionable Mr. Dangk. He gives a list of Mesdames and Signoras whom he expects to have magic!, and 'of his friends who, if he becomes a partner, are to be admitted free, and rho are enough to fill the theatre of them- He, too, has a strong desire for acting, and by way at once of proving his qualifications, and con'tiocing Mr. YATES of the superior attractions of Italian over Eitclish music, he sings Platte glop. ao .faticar, and When the heart of a nuty it &Pressed by, carat In this, which is beyond all comparison the hest omit of .bis . performance, be gives imitations of Pactotaetat, as Ltyarello. and . of INCLEDow, as captain Macheath. Unce most be chases in the character of Me. Pidf,a composer of advertisements, which is so stu pid in the cohception that even MATHEWS could make little of it. For the last.time he appears in his own person,' his assistance is gladly accepted by YATEs, and they ague to Pty it their unitedexertioos can engage the pub lic patronage. The acting of ibis burletta is of course cle ver, but the wit of moat of it is slender enough. A joke may pass in the green room or ebecsaissewhich becomes tiresome elsewhete, and' of such the dialogue is for the most Fait composed. There are some hits at the " le gitimate drama." as it is called in Drury lane and Co vent-garden • and no where else, to which those privi leged places have made themselves obnoxious, and which are be%ideb pet fotly justifiable under the cir, u•nstances in which the new managers are placed. A little piece, in two acts, called My Absent -Son. followed. It is an amusing trifle. The Absent Son was played by MATHlrsts. There is nothing in the piece but drat character, and nothing in the character bat the ridiculous effect of his 'abstractions, which MATilaws made cursively amus ing. The twelo-drama of Ptcsmnsptive Lvidence cow eluded the enteitainmenti. ,Amongst the premiums at the late Aylesbury agricol.. • ttrral society meeting was one to a poor nom, for hay.! jog brought up 10 children without parochial re.ief. , • Moachay se'.inight a grand • Ball and.

It is well know. that Shaftesbury is supposed to possess no local springs, and that water is brought Irom some distance in machines prepared for that purpose. For. this wines the . municipal authotities of Shafte s bury pay to the Lord of the Mapor whence the water is drawn. a I. calf s head,": a .4 bison)," and ceitsin other things of a like valie, annually. The engineer has pledged himself to free the town from this tax in all time corn ing, as hestates, from experiments he has • made, that there is not a place in England where an abundant sup ply of water may not be procured, ;tomb feW spots of Cornwall excepted: Mr. Hayward commences his operation by boring with an instiument like a common' auger, and after piercing thrOagh various strata to a depth of 250 feet in some instances, be his newer Lilo in obtaining a supply, varyin g f rom 90 to 60 gallons per asinine.

The pert •rinance commenced with ATTWOOO's Corouation Anthem, I was glad *Mei thelp said into me. The anthem, especially the Glory be, to the Father, was most effective, and went off with point ! and spirit. Mos. W. 4.I4TVETT bang Mozattes Agar, Dei in a very chaste style. miss Stunts. sang Pion Orgies in a very tuuching manner, and her cadence was admirably chaste, The selection from MOZART'S Re ,guienr, commencing with the c• orus, Hex treateadte,, was a most sublime performance. The Quartet was most deliciously sung, and many of the auditory were affecied even to teal. The air and quart-t, Eternal GOD, was beatrifuly sung by Mt. VAut3o4N, and Mrs. W. KNYYSTT, Mr. ,Kirrvare, and Mr. TsuiAtL, and excellently accitn periled. Madame CA RADOM'S song, On mighty plumes' was most charmingly sung. HANDEL:s, Jubilate cho rus concluded"the first part, and it was sung in the most effective manner. Tue second part was corn inenced with the grand chorus, Glory to GOD, from a iservice of BzLTHov EN's, sold was well perform .d. Miss PATOIS then introduced the song, From mighty Kings, :which she sung with charming. felicity. She made a most delightful cadence. Mr. VAUGHAN then sang the Holy and merciful Father, which was followed by ithel *rand chorus, Goa is great in battle, which wassiver, twish rich effect. Tue succeeding chorus, solo, and Iebools; from &Attila,' were also very well per,ornseil. The air, Tears such as tender fathers shed, which was rapt by Mt. PHILLIPS, was given with grace, tender ise'''. a. end pathos. Mesas RT'S Motett, LORD. have mercy ' alien its, is a masterly composition, and the imtrumentai parts magnificent. The recitative ana air from C 11164 aosat's socriftcio d Abrawo, apportioned to Mad. C RAMO,. I s one of the finest compositions of its kind. The recitative was beautifully lung, and the air was given ,with 6ne expression . . The best performed chorus in tiis day. seection was the one which followed, The arcs of Lotto is upon them •••.4 composition of HAYDN'S. The accompaniments were grand ; the rolling thunder was mostitnpressive, and the close. sublimely touching. Mr. BRAIIAM gave the song, Total Eclipse, with chaste and fine effect. A rather singular coincidence took place io the recitatives as Mr. B. was expressing the words, " No sun," the sun, which • till now had been clouded, in stantly darted forth his rays, and, for a short petiod, irradiated the Cathedral "with the blaze of noon." DRYDENS Ode. As front the power of sacred lays, was selected as the finale to the second part. and was beau tifully sung by Miss STZPNINS, the chorus giving it a 'grand effect. At the words, ike trumpet shall be heard on high, HARPER produced an electrical effect in the manneuhe gave utterance to the powerful tones of his instrument. The chorus— . 6. The dead shall live, the living die, And musk shall unwire the sky." was most overpowering, and seemed, from its tressen. l dons force, as if the spheres were dissolving amidst the 'harmony, and mingled their crumbling fragments with' its powerful crash. The third part opened with the chorus, Front the censer curling, which, with the doable., 'chorus, was smart and effective. Madame CATALAIII' then sang Dentine, labia, accompanied by Ms. F. CRAldelt, whose admirable performance demands a just tribute of approval. The double chorus. Your harps and cymbals sound, was . very effective. Mils STE rnista s air, Return. O GOD of Hosts! was snag in very tender and feeling manner. Mr. BIAIIIAM was truly excellent in the song, Pleasure, mi firmer ways resign ing; be sang with that chasteness of exp r ession which .the subject requires, and closed with a grace of the most delicate effect. The Gloria Petrie of Lin, taken from the Fitzwiliiam music, edited by V. Noirsti.o. Esq. is a most sublime 'and magnificent chorus, but on this occasion the singers were not sufficiently rehearsed id it to give it its proper effect. The trio, Out Ate each living soul awaits, which is a moat able composition. was vert well sung by Mrs. W. Kwevicr; Mr. VAUGHAN, and Mr. PHILLIPS, though they were a liitle out of woe at top.commencement. The grand-finale to this kite. resting series of sacred performance, the celebrated cho rus of The horse and his rider, was grand beyond des. l cription. We are sure that the ear would not be palled with the length of the performance, but would still linger on its echoes, as they died away through' the long drawn aisles. It wanted only's' quarter to Ape ibex the performance closed, and immediately, as on the former days, the bells of the Cathedral commencer, a merty peal as the company were departing. In the evening there was a grand fancy ball, which wal.most brilliantly attended, and at which there were present the Duke of Davoostnee, the Earls of C A LISLE and SCARBOROUGH, Lord GRANTHAM, and all the nobility and Sentry of the neighbourhood, with their families. • A young man one day brought Du: mime a manu script which be requested him to correct. He them left the house, and returned some days after. The manuscript was; in fact, a fus 'ions satire against Droatioe. " Sir," said the latter to the young man," I don't know you; I cannot have injured you; what is the secret of your conduct?" The secret was the poverty of the wri ter. He expected that Duna°, would give him a few loads for the soppression of the satire, but the philosopher gave him something , better. " Go," said be " to the Duke of Oateans—he is at St.Gene ', ekve—be hates me because hr Is a bigot.- Dedicate your satire to fbim t succour The young man thous* the counsel L sensible enough. but he. did not know heir to manage the dedica.

SINGULAR CASE OF A SLEEP WALICEIL The eldest sohllf Mr. Henry Lampbler,of Beckford place, Regent's Park. has been foriaMe tiiut past tette !herd of walking in his sleep after the family bad Rocs to rest. On a late occasion he was discovered slier midnight by one of the servants % whose dory it wit to ' watch his notturn 11 movements, gating up and down the gardenln his night•gown and cap. and a book is his hand. Having walked about for half an hoer, he returned to his chamber on the second. Roo , laid the book,on the table, and quietly retired to bed. Mr. Lamphier, fearful that his son would, from so Many re. pettions, become confit med in the habit. of somnam ' holism, determined. if possible, to try. some effecs tual means to prevent its recurrence, and desired his servant to awake him the next time his son was discovered in that state. Ou Tuesday morning last, about two o'clock. the man who remained in the room next to the young sleep-walker observed him conong out of his bedchamber, move into his room, take up the night lamp, and descend regularly down to the libt as y closet on the first floor, open the bookcase, take 4 volume from it, and with the gteatest composure sit do. sr as it to read.

" ENGLISH SUItOBOI4I IN RUSSIA.—A letter from one of the young English surgeons who lately west to Ross sin, in consequence of the invitation t f the Russian Go vernment cis culated in this country, to induce Engliab Surgeons to ea er the Russian service, expresses great dissatisfactio s with the treatment they have received At 8 . . Petessburgh. The Russian Professors, he says, with one or two eveptions, are the most ignorant and the most ill bled lie ever met with in the prolessicn. They are jealous of the English in every thing ; and on the Candidates passing their examination, endeavoured, as much as possible. to find fault, pas titularly with their method of operating, so much superior t s their owe. The Candidates were at first informed that their eza• mina; ion would be finished in a week, and that t ey should be appointed to their stations in another; stead of which their examinations were delayed two months; and though they all passed fur the first claw. 'still they will not be admitted without 'eking a degree 'tom their College, which would require six swaths to accomplish, and also deprives the graduate of 180 ducats, promised the first class Ix travelling expenses; and ever sincetheir at rival they have been living at tbe rate of eight roubles a day. Their conduct towards Russian Candidates is quite different—they are passed And appointed af once. The English Sweats ate cc. termined, that if every I.
