Of a very long all of the Italian Legiflature, re• jative to tome interior regulations, we find only the following article worth notice : — •• The nation has now the right to exaet the tenths, which were formerly paid to Corporations, Brotherhoods, Be nefices, and other foppreired Inllitutions, whole property has been adjudged to the Nation.

No means will be (pared to reffore this branch of induliry to its former profperity. The aetivity obferved in our ports is afonifhing; it gives confidence to all thole who were force years ago apprehenfive that the commerce of this coun try would never recover the confiderable loffes it fuliained during the war.

The Second Battalion of the 85th Regiment lately arrived from Jamaica, under the command of Mainr 111 , KstrziE ; previous to departing from that ifland, it began to experience the dreadful effeels of a Well India climate. Lieutenants FITZ/AMES, SHEPPARD, and CHADWICK, died the latter end of July. The regiment embarked on the t 3th of Augull, and arrived at Portfmouth on the sch of September. Saturday forenoon the gallant 28th regiment of foot, which fo diftinguithed itfelf in Egypt in the vidury. of the memorable 2111 of March, 18ot, before Alexandria, and on many other occafions during the late war,was reviewed by Major General ENGLAND on the lawn before Government Houfe Dock Lines, Plymouth : the day being fine, there was a large concourfe of fpedators to greet thefe gallant fellows on their &ft review fince their re turn to their native country from foreign fervice. The review was in every refped good, particularly as to marching by in orlinary and quick time : the regiment then went through their manoeuvres, firings, and evolutions, in the moil corred manner, at firft forming the hollow fquare, firing, and reducing it into line, t 9 the gratification of the General Officers prefent, and fpedators. By word of command the regiment performed their cele ' braced manoeuvre of facing the rear to a front, and by that means prefenting two fronts, being fuppof ed to be attacked in front and rear by the enemy, when a molt heavy fire commenced, as if in real anion. This manoeuvre was one, amongft others, which the gallant 28th executedon the ever-memo rable atft of March, iBoi, in the ruined work near Alexandria, when it was attacked by BONAPARTE'S Invincible foot in front, and a Legion of Invincible Dragoons in the rear, the greater part of which, in a !port time, bit the dull, and left the 28th, 42d, and a foreign corps, undifputed matters of , the field. General ENGLAND returned the regiment his thanks at the clofe of the review. The orderly conduct of both the gallant 26th, or Cameronians, and 28th regiment, while in barricks, deferves the higheft encomiums for fteady difcipline and good behaviour.

Dal/RV-LAN& THIATRE.—Lati night the tra gedy of Cyrodetore was repeated, and Mr. Pors being much recovered from the cold that oppreffed him the former night, was enabled to give to the part of Pyibiroure all the force and energy which belongs to it, and all the excellence which his con ception of it embraces. Indeed, the play is altoge ther performed with great ability. Mrs. Pots is very eminent in the charaaet of /orogen, which is admirably adapted to her Rile of performance.— In addition to the attraaion of this play, was the novelty of Mr. Awl , sa's appearance in the cha raaer of Young Wilding in The Liar, and in his ge neral a&ion and deportment reminded us much of the late Mr. JOHN PALMER, who was fo admi rably at cafe in this charaaer : his manner alto has a mixture of that of the Covent Garden LEWIS. Of difpofition to imitation he manifefts but li:tle; that little, however, we could with to fee him altogether forego. He was loudly applauded throughout his performance of laft night. It would be flattering WATH EN to fay that his Papillon is as entertaining as that of WEWITZER ; but if it was not fo humourous, we did not obferve much offence in it. The houfe, particularly the pit, was very well filled. The fplendour of the boxes will gradually increafe as the feafon of faihion and of the town returns. COVENT GARDEN THEATRE..--Laa night Mr. COOKE appeared, for the fecond time, in the cha raCter of Hamlet ; and notwithltanding the feverity of remark which he had to encounter on his firtt performance, was, upon the whole, well received by a refpatable audience. It muft,• however, be obferved, that he was not laft night in a condition to give full effect to his powers, as he evidently laboured under indifpofition, and was moreover fo hoarfe as foraetimes to be inarticulate. Of Mifs REEVES'S performance of °Alia we have not any new obfervations to make. The New Theatre, Sadler's Wells, after a very favourable feafon, clofed laft night. COOK x, we underftand, has made a new engage ment with the Manager of Covent Garden Theatre. His prefent articles expire at the elofe of this fea fon. The terms of the new eng:tgement, it is Paid, are more than double the amount of what he re ceived on his firft connedion with that Theatre. Mr. COLMAN, it feems, means to refume his funCtions as Acting Manager next feafon. On Monday fe'nnight, a in a large room at Anderflon, near Glafgow, where a company of comedians were performing /be Ruh Body, about the commencement of the play, part of the feats, from being over crowded, broke down, by which one young lady had her leg broken, and fe veral other perfons were confiderably bruifed. The rain of yetterday was extremely welcome to the parched earth. A continuance of it would even at this late period be profitable to the grafs. The Parifhioners of St. Dunitan's have been ex tremely liberal the repairs of the Church Clack ; befides new dreffing the two Piling figures in the molt fathionable Rile ofnakednefs, they have been at the expence of a new fet offs leave: to thew the decency of the primitive ages.

No wife Farmer talks of fcarcity, till his crops are barned. Effeas of the peace.—A paper gives an account of the reduaion of Coloneh and Lieutenant Colonels of all regiments of the line—and immediately after, the rediraion of the price of butter at Ipfwich fair. A certain Marquis would have compofed a love letter from two fuch coincidences. The Spanifh Government in North America, unable to make oppofition to the predatory warfare of BowLES and his Indian followers, is negociat• ing a treaty of peace with them.

It gives us much pleafure to find that the fevc, which bore fo alarming appearance for fome time in Philadelphia and Baltimore, is now Lb abated that the inhabitants of thefe places think it unr,e• ceffary to remove from their ufual places of abode, and that the city of New York was in a tlate of the moll perfc health.
