Mr. Secreory CA N;..thu, yesterday entertained at his residence, Gloucester -Lodge, the whole of the Corps Diplornatique at dipper. 'Mete were present, Princes POLICE AC and ESTERHAZY,.COORt LIEVEN, the Nether lands Ambassador, M. FALCK, Mr. liustr, the Ameri can Minister, the Envoys and Ministers of RM. TUG AL, PRUSSIA, DENMARK, SWEDEN, and NAPLES; as also M. de Los Ittoc, who is lately arrived in this country as Mini-ter Pienipo:entiary horn the King 01 SPAIN, and the Count TRASTAMA BA, who accom panies him. Among the English guests present were, Lord STRANGFORD, S.r C. STUART, Sir C. BAGOT, Lord MOUNT CHARLES, Mr. FOSTER, &c. From the accomti la!ely teceived from India, it ap pears that some difference in opinion haJ existed be tween the Governor-General, anti the Commander-in- Chief in India, respecting the time arvi season at which it was prudent and ad%i,,ble to commence military operations against the mans. The Governor• Gene • sal, thinking that no time • .ts to be lost, is said to have urged the expediency of going to war immediately; with the means at hand, and of making ayropcx irre: pression upon the enemy before the rainy season should' set in, and the troops be exposed to the hazardwneces . - wily attendant upon operations in the field at that. time of the year. This, prima facie, has reason in it. The Commander-in-Chief, on the other hand, is said to have decidedly recommended the abstaining from opening the campaign until the rainy season had been over; being impressed with the belief that the imme diate military resources were either inadequate, or that, 'from the hardy and indefatigable character of the enemy we had to contend with, and the great natural diffi culties of the scene of warfare, the Monsoons rains would overtake the army in the middle of the cam paign, and cripple our future operations. These are points on which men might very naturally differ, and it would be difficult to decide who is right. Certain it is, however, no blame whatever attached to either the Governor-General or the Commander-in-Chief. The zeal of Lord AMHERST, and his determination to support the honour and interests of his country, are well known ; and of the talents of Sir EDWA RD PAGET ' 1 military men speak most favourably. He has seen a great deal of service on the European Continent, and is es teemed a brave and able Officer. It is known that the gallantSirJon N MOORE spoke of him in the highest terms; and in his last moments, after receiving his death wound at Corunna, included him amongst his last valedictory remembrances. Brigadier - General Sir ARCHIBALD CAMPBELL, the immediate Commander of the expedition against the Burmese, is also an expe• rienced and brave Officer, and has the additional ad vantage of having lung served in India, in the opera tions which eventually led to the fall of Seringapatarn , and the overthrow of the dynasty of TIPPOO SAHIB. Sir ARCHIBALD CAMPBELL was likewise employed in the European Peninsular war, under the Duke of WELLINGTON, and had an important command in the Portuguese service, and in the organization of their army, under Marshal Lord BERESFORD. As, therefore, the fullest reliance may be placed on the talerits and skill of our Commanders in India, as well as the bravery of our troops, there is little doubt of the Burmese war terminating favourably ; though prudence will suggest an augmentation of our force in order to keep down so dal nig and formidable an enemy. Lisbon Papers to the 25th tau eached us this forenoon. They contain official details of the expected but impor tant change in the Portuguese Ministry, which extend., to almost every department of the Administration. The Conde SUBSERRA is succeeded in the Office of Secretary of State for the Marine and Colonies by Admiral 'founts, and the Marquis de PALMELLA, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, gives place to Senhor SILVESTRE PIN HEI RO Ek:RE El BA. The Cardinal Archbishop of EVORA, retie es from the office of Minister Secretary of State for Ecclesiastical Affairs, and the changes, as we have stated, extend to almost every office of importance. Nearly all the Ex-Ministers retire with a laudatory compliment for their services, and some of them with new honours and pensions. The Conde de SuIsERRA is appointed Ambassador to Great Britain, and the Mar quis de PALMELLA proceeds to France, in the same capa city. The following are extracts:— LISBON.

A prodigious concourse of persons was attracted to this Theatre on Saturday night, by Miss Foore's re-appearance on the stage, in the character of ',auk Hardy. The House was filled to the ceiling ; and the boxes contained well-dressed women, and gene rally respectable persons. The crowd on entering the Theatre was very great—a large body of persons stood in the street (at the box doors) for half an hour before the time of opening; and these had almost all taken places a week or a fortnight before. Some doubt was felt as to the probability of maintaining these rights; bwt the constables did their duty, and the seats li t were, we believe, in almost every instance, preserved for the right owners. The pit I was filled at a single rush, almost entirely with men.. The diets boxes had an early and abundant shew of Ladies, and a great many ventured even into the upper ones. At the commeiscement of the evening, a placard, with " Miss Foote for ever" on it, was placed in the front of the second tier of boxes j and that manifesto was received with loud cheers ftom all parts of the (louse. About the same time, a considerable sensation was excited by the appearance of Mr.'Hayne, in a private box. Here and there a few slight dis turbances were set on foot in different parts, and these continued et intervals after the commencement of the comedy; but they arose, in most cases, we are inclined to think, from the crowded state of the (louse—such very close propinquity of parties seldom tending to very good neighbourhood—rather than from any desire on the part of one or two unsupported individuals to resist the whole opi nion of the audience; and even these were scarcely heard alter the appearance of Miss Fool, who was welcomed with a burst of applause absolutely tremendous. So warns a reception. joined to the natural feelings of a female so situated, overpowered the Lady a good deal; and it was with difficulty that she was kept from fainting by leaning on the shoulder of Mrs. Gins. The whole of her first scene was acted under great agitation; in the subsequent parts of the play, however, she rallied, from the encouragement given to her, and performed with her accustonted elegance and good taste. The little song in the second act, without music, she sang extremely well: it was encored, and called for a third time. The dance, too, in the masquerade scene, assisted by Mrs. Vuetso, was also encored, and deservedly : it was really, on the part of both Ladies, very grlcefully and beautifully executed. • In the course of the play, the audience, as they are accustomed to do on similar occasions, applied several passages to the particular situation of the actress ; but all of theM with warm cheers. At the 1 0 end of the play, Miss Roes was led a little forward by Mr. CHAS. Kismet', and made a low obeisance to the audience; and the play was then re-annousiced with loud applause. COURT OF KING'S BENCH-THIS DAY. Sittings in Banco before the LORD Cuter Junin', Justices Hut= ROT° and LITTLRDAI.E. CRIMINAL INFORMATION, MORNING CHRONICLE THE LINO V. CLEZELENT. The ATTORNZY•GINRRALanciPrOceeded to address their Lordships, by skewing cause against a rule obtained by Mi. Gai ney on a former day against the defendant, Mr. Clement, the Pro prietor of the Morning Chronicle, for certain alleged libelous articles published in that Journal, reflecting upon the conduct and character of the Re . v. 11r. Kcitwick, who resided in Surrey, and is also a Magiarate of the same county. The Learned Gentleman was proceeding to argue his grounds for the removal of rile cri niinal inforntai ion so obtained, when - The LORD Cuter Justice intimated, that as this was a case of very considerable importance, and as Mr. Justice Bayley was then occupi d in justification of bail, it was advisable he should he present, and the further proceedings were ordered to stand over until his Lordship came into Court. Soon after Mr. Justice Bayley took his seat with their Lordships, The ATTORNZT•GINERAL resumed his argument in the above cause, when the final result was, that the Court ordered the rile to be discharged without costs. We are happy to hear that the Marchioness of TA. VISTOCIL is nearly recovered from the efficts of the accident occa sioned by her clothes taking fire while engaged at her toilet on ,Christmas day. The effects were more serious than were gene rally understood, and would unquestionably have been fatal had 'she not had the presence of mind to wrap herself up in the carptt, but not before her neck was burned, and her finger nails totally destroyed in pressing out the flames.
