InEATRE-ROYAL, DRURY.LANE—Yesterday even ing the Tragedy of Othello was performed at this Theatre, for the p'srpose of introducing tolhe Public Mrs. WEST, from the Bath Theatre, in the character of Desdemona, and, in the part of the Moor, a Gen tleman who has never before appeared on any stage. Mrs. Wear is a correct and rather pleasing actress, and in some of the playful entreaties of Desdentona displayed considerable power. She gave no indica tions of those bursts of passion which might lead us to hope that she would excel in the more decidedly tragic characters; but she promises to form a useful addition to the company in those parts in which more depends on the appearance and deportment of the actress, than in any remarkable reach of feeling or undetstanding. The Gentleman who performed the part of (theirs is, as we must often expect that a can didate for tragic fame will now be, somewhat of an imitatot of Mr. KLAN, but neither a servile nor inju dicious one. His voice is powerful and distinct, but both his face and figure were so obscured by the Moorish disguise, that we should be afraid of giving a decisive opinion respecting either of them. His impassioned dialogues with lags were sustained with great spirit, and he was often striking in his delinea tions of the sudden changes in an agitated mind. The delivery of the famous defence of Othello, in the first act, and which perhaps is one of the most diffi cult tasks which an actor has to perform, was rather unimpressive; but he was successful in the admirable speech beginning Farewell the tranquil mind and in some other specimens of the higher kind of recitation. We know not whether we can always trust the assertions of the play-bills respecting the first appearances on any stage; but if this was really a first attempt, it was upon the whole a very promis ing one ; and though this Gentleman may not have the talents to strike out a new road to fame, there is every probability that he will be amongst the best of those who follow in the steps of others. The whole of his sitting, as well as that of Mrs. Wear, was re ceived with great applause. BeNeouran took the character of logo, and was watmly and deservedly applauded throughout the whole of his performance. HOLLAND and MTS.GLOVER dcted Cassia and Easilia in a very satisfactory manner, and the curtain de scended amidst shouts of approbation.--When Mr. BARII,ARD came forward to give out the Play for Sa turday, there was a general call for a repetition of .Othello; but the request was not acquiesced in, and Romeo and Juliet was announced.

EXTRACT Of A UTTER FROM THR BRITISH CONSUL AT CORUNNA, DATED AUGUST 26. " According to the inclosed translation of two Royal Orders of His Catholic Majesty, it will be perceived, that if any vessel puts into a Spanish port, by stress of weather or any other unavoidable acci dent, and has Spanish coin on board, without being accompanied by said certificate, it is seizable, whe ther it is manifested or not ; if not manifested, and it is found out, the vessel and cargo will be confis cated, the master fined 500 hard dollars, costs of suits, and imprisonment of himself and the crew, till the sentence is confirmed by the Superior Tribunal at Madrid, which generally condemns the criminals to the gallies, for periods according to the crime.— Foreign coin, gold or silver bullion, are rated as merchandise, which, if sot manifested, will be con fiscated, as every thing else that is not manifested at the time the entry is made at the Custom House: Translation of Article 10, Ch. 7, of the Royal Decree and General Instruction of the Royal Revenue, dated Madrid, April 16, 1817: " When any sum of Spanish money is manifested, exceeding two hard dollars per ton of the vessel's measurement, without a certificate from the Spanish Consul resident at the port from whence she natl.!, the admfnistrator will cause the Lime to be disembarked and deposited in the Treasury, and Inform the Board of Revenue, and the Board will acquaint the Superin• tendent Secretary of State of the Revenue, for his Majesty's Translation of the Royal Order of the 14th of April, 1817, to the Intendant of Galicia, and those of other I roviners : " The King, in conformity with the exposition of the Board of Revenue, and according to Art. 10. ch. 7, of the Instruction of Royal Revenue, has teen pleased to order, that the Captains or Masters of foreign vessels, accidentally putting into the ports of Spain, and having on board Spanish coin, should, under pain of confiseation, present a Certificate from the Spanish Consul in such ports, specifying from whencelt came, and its destina tion, which Is communicated by Royal Order for the compliance thereof." The statement of the departure of Lord Coon- RANZ'S steam-vessel is contradicted. She remains in the Commercial Dock, and her machinery is still in complete. She may yet proceed on her voyage ; but his Lordship is supposed to have found another ves sel, and to be at sea. A letter from Halifax, dated August 20, 1818, says, " Several American vessels have xrrised within these few days, the consequence of the operation of the Free Port Act, with lumber, grain, and flour.— Trade, of course, revives a little, and expectation is ardent.

"My DIZAR Sea. —l am now writing in the tent the neith end of Hare or Waygatt r ith the whittle one yaid 'of me, and the observatory and alk IM . meats within half-a-dozen. We were arrested in 01. 1"g nia yesterday by the ice, which forms a complete bar about three miles to the northwird of this I;fand, commencing on the Greets land side, from what is called Four Island Point, and extending down the Sznats at a.distance not greater dint too miles to the Westward of this island, and 15 to the westward of Disko. Soon after entering the Straits, we found it absolutely impracticable to gO up to the middle, as the ice gradually brought us into the /and, till a little to the northward of Riskoll (vulgo Reef Roll) we were for a day or two totally blockaded. The ice then, by one of those unaccountable changes that so frequently G.:es:t here, opened sulficiently to give us a free passage, till yesterday.* we found., second bar in this place. From every account we' have received, u well as from what we have already seen, it toe certain that the but winter has not only been a severe, but that , the frost has lasted much later than has been the case for many years put. You may imagine our surprise when, on coming . into this neighbourhood yesterday, we found upwards of 5 5 Rd.' fish 'hips at anchor upon the ice-bergs, which completely forns a cluster of innumerable islands from the spat in which I at tide I moment view them. They have all been detained here—not days, but weeks, in spite of every exertion to get to the north ward; and the fishery may be considered at hitherto an none.• cessfol one, with the exc option of a few of the ship" in Disko Del. • " The causes which operate upon the ice producing very sad. den changes in it, are so little understood, that it is impossible' to judge when any such change may take place as to e:,able tuft to get to the northward. I have just been to the top cf a moun tain of no incoodderable height, to determine Its al.i..ude by the barometer; and I wish I could give you an adequate idea of the magelliceat esblimity of the scene I have just witnessed. The whole horizon to she northward and westward is one complete mass of con pact field ice ; with the exception of above 500 ice bergs, which, with here and there a small spot of clear blue wa ter, serve to vary the scene, which would otherwise tire the err With the usiformity of its dazzliog whiteness. To the eastward is seen the land of Greenland, very high, almost entirely covered with snow, and frowning, as it were, upon the ocean of lee which environs its shores. To the southward is the island of Disko, with Its summit (which we have never clearly seen) completely lost in the clouds. Near this island areal! the Green- land ships at anchor, giving a finish to the scene whose Ira, deur and beauty are far beyond any thing I hav e seen before. The longitudes of the places en this coast were very much in want of correction. We had a great number of excellent lotus to the southward, which, with the Isabella's chronometer', which go admirably, will, I think, determine the longitudes so far, to the nearest three or four miles. The dip of the needle in lat. 57. U. was ell. and the variation 67. 50. "Here the dip about the same, and the azymuths we Lase taken this morning we cannot work for want of a la itude, which we hope to obtain at midnight. The transit of the sun for the pendulum we hope to get to-morrow, and if the ice still remains firm, so as to prevent our leaving this place, the next day, we trust, will produce something In this war. Delighted as lam to take a part in these observations, I coafess I should be glad to see the teats struck to-night, and the ice open; and you may rely upon it, that no object whatever will ever tempt our Cora =dare to neglect for an instant the main object of the expedi tion. The current that has been spoken of as coming constantly down the Straits, if it exists at all, must be to the weitwapd cf our track up the Straits • and, indeed; all the masters of We ships hive ' a great drea d of being set to the westward in our present latitude, as they instal upon it that Li a ship were butt here she would probably come out in 65 degrees. sitsnav,!mrs fte. _ . _ _ " The ice having opened a little on the evening sif Saturday. we endeavoured to get over from Hare Island to the coast t.t Greenland, or, as the Masten call it, the East Land. The Isa bella was beset in making this attempt, and was drifted about with the ice by the tides till Monday morning. We were morn fortunate, having succeeded in getting over to the land, and into clear water, on Sunday evening, anti there made fast to a berg, to wait for the Isabella. There would be no navigatirg this sea but the the bergs; for, after the men have towed an warped the slag for 12 or 14 hour, t hour, elut wouisl be adrift again, and at tie mercy of the Its, if you could ea suhis in security to one of these asonsoos masses, which reels epee the ground, and gerfeedy secures you from every danger, except that (which has once of twice occurred to us) of drit,ieg cif with a high smir.g tide into deep water. A ship is s!moss perfectly secure from going on shore, when well anchored to them, for the smallest sachem draws so much more water than any ship, that it must ground long before the ship, unless the shore immediately within it is very steep indeed. A very small Iceberg, to which we anchored on the 9th of June, was grounded in 52 fathoms, and was so firmly moored, that the levels of the dipping needle were not in the slightest degree affected. " Jose 5. " Since I last wrote, we have been incessantly occupied in attempting to get through the lee to the northward. The first I stage we made was Into North-east Biy, whose we have been detained several days, which could only be occupied in settling ' the position of the several points of land, dtc. a:.d the variation of the compass, which, by the bye, can never be done ou board a ship with say tolerable degree of accuracy, a di:Terence of 30 degrees arising from a charge in the ship's head, on board the Isabella. On board the Alexander this aifferenceds very appa rent also, but in a much smaller degree. I do not, however, consider the experiments we have yet made to be sufficiently ne nitrous, or sufficiently delicate, to kaublc us to draw any woe factory conclusion from them on this very interesting point, trl further and better opportunities offer. We had rather an interesting visit from two Esquimau.% es. malts the other day, but with the details of which I shall nos now trouble you. in truth, I haw: so few moments to spare from the immediate duties which now press upon us, that I fear you will think my letter but a shabby one. These last two days have given us a run to the northward beyond our most sanguine expectation, as we are at this moment within seven miles et the northernmost of the Womn's Islands, and passed Sandersce's Hope yesterday evening. Our latitude, by account, to-day at noon, was 73. 10. N. ; Isabella's 75.15. long. 57.14. W. Some of the Esquitnaux frogs these islands were, I understand, on board the Isabella to-dal, and report, that the pla:e in which we now are has been clear of ice during the wisoac wzussa (is this posalhle7) that no whales have been here during the whole season; and that they thir.k there is plenty of clear water to the northward. It this be tie*. it is delightful intelligence for us. As far as we can ourselves see, there is so reason to questicn the accuracy of this state tnent, for though the number of bergs is here, as at Riskell, and "at Waygatt Island, and Black *look, almost beyond coneepttpa or belief, the field-ice apy.e.ais to be by no means so close to to stop our progress. 'low long this fair prospect may contir.ne, it is impossible to judge, but the voyage begins to acquire es. trenoe incercst, and all are anaicusly looking out to the north. " P.S.—Junr C.—l have just measured the height of an iCe berg, which is 1:13 and a hall feet, and it is aground in 121 kr thorns! This is literally a small one compared with some hur. dreds that we have seen. Feet above water, and fatliuma umlai„ seem to be the general run at their specific gravity." The harvest in the west of Scotland may now be said to approach completion. In the counties of La,. nark, Stirling, Dumbarton, and Ayr, except in vs tremely late places, there is very little to cut, and ea greater part is in the stack•yard.
