The Dnke and Duchess of BUCKINGHAM arrived here last night, at Bayshill Lodge, the residence of his late Majesty, King GEORGE 111. which was an -n n:need by the joyful ringing of bells. His Grace has had a slight attack of the gout, and is come here for the benefit of his health. This morning his Grace repaired to the Royal Old Wells, where he was re ceived by Mr. CIIAMBIRS, the Manager, who handed him a glass of water on a silver salver. The Band struck up • GOD Sqre the King! This being the anni versary of the birth-day of the Duke of YORK, the flags of various nations were displayed at the Royal Old Well, which Mr. CHABIBEGS is in possession of, front having been an attendant on Sir ISAAC HEARD, late Garter King at Arms. The Band attached to the Wells, played the Duke of l'oxes Mares! 2 Ht. THEATRES. II i iMARKET. This Theatre continues to maintain its popularity, and to deserve it by- the choice of its pieces, and the excellence and zealous eze►tions of its company. It is well filled every night, and although chiefly dedicated to the Comic Muse, occasionally proves that it can also pay due respect to her Operatic Sister. ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE. The throng at this House last night was as great, if not greater, than on the two previous performances of Tarrare. BRAHASI, PHILLIPS, and Miss PATON were again in fine voice, and their efforts drew forth fre quent bursts of vehem:nt applause. The Astasia, who it seems is altogether new to the stage, begins to display much talent, and still more of promise. Her manner of singing skew s that she is being trained in what is' called the great school, the foundation of which is a free, equal, and pure delivery of tone. The quality of her voice has m aerially improved with each perform. ance ; and although it is evidently not marked by any extraordinary power or compass, we expect to find it capable of great expression—the soul of all vocal excel lence. In her acting there is much intelligence; and, for a novice, remarkable' ease and appropriate action. Her speaking tones had at first an unnatural formality which they are fast losing, and which cannot too soon be entirely discarde.l. In person, this young Lady pos sesses rare attractions, particularly in form. The face, is irregular, and not what is generally considered a good stage•face; but its expression is intellectual, and therefore interesting. NATAL INTELLIGENCE.

Barons A NSELU, SOLOMON, CHARLES, and JAMES Di Itoessonsa, have arrived in Well from Paris. It was reported in the City yesterday morning, that the Greek Committee have concluded a long pending negociation with Lord COCITRANE, by which they agree to furnish a large sum of money adequate to the ex pense of an expedition, the plan of which has been •long considered by his Lordihip, and which will. be immediately carried into effect in support of the cause of the Greeks. Steam vessels, and all the apparatus, it is said, are already prepared, and will shortly sail under his Lordship's command. Among the students in the Berlin University who received gold prize medals on the Sd of August, was nne of the name of MULLER, of Berlin, who has been blind from his birth. The Government Paper of Stutgard contains the sen tences of 17 persons, confined in the Castle of Hohenas perg, for having participated in a neasonable associa tion. Their sentences vary from four years to six months. Don JUAN ROMERO ALPUZNTE has lately arrived in London. Proscribed by the Government of Kiog. Fan- DINA.ND, at the advanced age of eighty, after under going incredible hardships, he effected his escape to Gibraltar, and from thence has sought an asylum in this country. He was one of the most distinguished De puties of the Cortes during the period of the Constitution. VAUXHALL GARDENS.—Last night, these Gardens were brilliantly illuminated, in commemoration of the Birth of His Royal Highness the Deke of YORK; and upon no similar occasion do we recollect that the illu minations have been so brilliant. Triumphal arches, done in variegated lamps, gave a beautiful effect to the walks in front of the orchestra. Festoons of variegated lamps also decorated the walk from the Chinese en trance to Fingal's Cave; and, in,order to display the object of the Gala, the motto of 4 . 4 The Duke of YORK, and the Army," wai executed in the most tasty manner in the grand quadrangle; and the space appropriated for the words was beautifully decorated with variegated lamps. Two new Cosmoramas were also exhibited, .one being a view of Rome, and the other of the Bay of Naples. Tr e Company was namtrous, although the evening •was far from being propitious. It was, in fact, raining at intervals throughout the entire evening, ;Ind yetsdiere could not have been, at a moderate cal c,.l.nion, less than 6,000 persons in the Gardens. iiA t ST/Nti& ..m..6....... Nothing can be bet than Hastings in point of situation, but the. town is not good. There are long narrow streets. with houses at enormous rents—all comfortless and old-fashioned ; and it is but' lately that a cosumenoienent has been made to open a new lbw, and give better accommodations. Even there the perverse spirit inhe- rent in the taste or soil is apparent, for they have built a square en an inclined plane, one side at least ten feet higher than the other— kind gregkings from the parlour at one row to the attics of the op posite. The markets are well supplied with great abundance of fish, which is very good and cheap, but with regard to meat and poultry, there is but one standard along the coast, no matter where you go, and that is, the London price. The new houses are very dear--eight guineas to twelve guineas a week, but in the old streets, good houses can be had at four and six guineas. The place is well attended at present. Sir Godfrey Webster, whose One place at Battle is in the neigh bourhood, endeavours to make the place attractive. He has lately established Races—and promises to bring the Yacht Club round in the latter season. Mr. Planta is here. Hastings has always been an excellent smuggling depot, but the Preventive men bare cut it up very much of late. A cutter, with three hundred tubs of spirits, was brought in last week, by the Arrow revenue cruiser. SINGULAR CASE. At Worship-street Office, yesterday, J. Whittick was charged by Mr. Lister. of Southampton-row, with stea!ing in his shop, on the 2d of July, a gold watch, v,lue 261. It was proved, by a most respectable wit ness, that the prisoner, whose father is a timber-mer chant in Oxfordshire, had not been in London for two years till Monday week. The prisoner also de dared that he was, at the tine stated by the prosecutor, at Maidenhead, on business for his father. Mr. Bas rim questioned the prosecutor closely al to his certainty of the prisoner's identity, to which be positively swore.— Tim case was then about to be adjourned till Friday, when Mr. Breckles (the witness) again addressed the Magistrate on the improbability of the prisoner's guilt, and asked Mr. Lister if he had observed any imperfec tion in the hand of the person who had robbed him ? to which he answered in the negative. The hand being then uncovered, displayed a deformity which could scarcely escape observation; it bad the appearance ofl a large wen, of an irregular shape, with fingers branch ing out in various directions. Mr. BUM= then asked the prosecutor to say, as an honest man, if he thought it probable he could have seen the young man in the shop, without observing the peculiarity in his hand ? The prosecutor said not, if it was in that state at the time; but still be swore positively to his person. Mr. BILNNETT then, under the peculiar circumstances, offered to take Mr. B.'s bail for the young man's ap pearance at the Sessions, which be cheerfully gave. We have since been informed, that this unfortunate young Rum was, early in his childhood, most sorely allicted with what Is termed a bleeding fungus on his left hand, which increased with his growth, baling the skill of those Members of the Faculty whose attention has been directed to the case; and it is feared that, if amputation were attempted, he might bleed to death. The fungus is of a great weight, and appears to have acted as a drawback upon the body, which is, in consequence, much debilitated, and the voice is perfectly feminine. Appearances of the same nature have also lately presented themselves on the right hand. THE SILK DYERS. Monday evening, a numerous Meeting of Silk Dyer, took place at the Red Lion, Phceni:•street, Bpitalfieldss to take into consideration the propriety of raising a subscription in aid of the Bradford wool-comhers and stuff-weavers, who are at present out of employment, in consequence of a suikaior an advance of wages. It, appears that the Committee.. by Whom their affairs are regulated have dispatched-delegates through all the manufacturing districts, to solicit the support of their fellow-werkmen. One of those persons was present at the meeting, and gave a melancholy picture of the privations to which the people of BiaclfOrd trete subject, but expressed their determination to endure the utmost rather than return to work without the advance. He stated, that the masters, in order to effect their prin cipal object—a breaking up of the Union"—had en deavoured to enforce obedience.from their refractory workmen, by discharging the wires and children of those who were members of the Union, and in cont.- qnence 4000 persons were thrown out of employment. A letter was read to the meeting, from which it ap. peared that one house in Bradford had agreed to the advance, and 300 bands had in consequence resumed their work. The utmost gratitude was expressed for the liberal manner in which the unemployed persons had been supported by other work-people. A sum of 101. was voted by the meeting, the members of *kith entered with enthusiasm into the feelings of the deputy. The Journal de Rouen, of Thursday last, contains the following paragraph respecting the refractory and riotous workmen in that city :0.. 14 The investigation into the late affair is carried on with great activity; the authorities are in pursuit of those rioters who have not yet been arrested. and we may be assured that none of them will escape justice. Prompt examples of just severity will prevent the return of similar disorders. of which the work;ng classes would be the first victims, by its leading to the ruin of the establishments which furnish them with the work from which they draw their means of subsistence. The Mayor of Hoolme, who has manifested mach zeal on the occasion, has perstiaded 4 past of the wotk men of M. Levavaseur to return to hii manufactory and continue their work." • , A conviction-under the rew Combination Act, took place at the Public-office, Itlrmingbatn, on Thursday last. Witham Cross was charged with baying endeavoured by threats to force -another journeyman sawyer, in the employment of Mr. Maurice Shipton, of that town, to leave his employment. The charge was fully proved, and the prisoner was sentenced to be imprisoned, and kept to bard labour for the space of three months. Circulars have been sent from the Office of the Ma gistrates of the Eastern Division of Kent, pursuant to a resolution passed at the last Quarter Sessions, re. quiting all parish officets and overseers to forward forthwith a return of all lunatics and insane persons under their charge, and to state the general conduct and infit mities under which they labour, which is to be verified by a certificate of a medical person, and fur ther confirmed by the oath of the overseers at the next Quarter Sessions. The heat has been excessive at Guadaloupe, and fa voured the developement of the yellow fever.—A letter from Point-a-Petre; of the 25th of June, says, that dis order rages with great violence, and almost all the Eu ' ropcans have sunk under it. The mortality is said to be greeter than in 1816. DREADFUL ACCtoaNi.—As three men were de scending a coal-pit, called the Independent Pit, near 13team,,in the Forest of Dean, on Thursday last, the rope by which they were descending unfortunately slipped, and they were &tip tared to the bottom of the pit, a' depth of. snore than 100 yard., and which of course caused their twang death. 4n Inquest was held on the bodies before W. Joyner Ellis. E s q. Coroner, when a verdict was teturned of Accidental Death. ST.

The capital was illuminated in tht evening. On the same 'day the Emperor and Empresses gave private audiences to the Baron Von Domberg, the. Hanoverian Minister , who has retuined - to this capital ; to - Sir B. Bloomfield, English Ambassador at the Court of Stockholm ; to his Aid-de-Camp, Capt.

RUSSIAN SALVAGE. of the Imperial Ukase, by which the Diving Corn psi y of St. Petersburgh is d e p r i ve d o 7 all its privileges in the Duchy et Finland : " We, Alexander I. by the Grace of Gin, Emperor and As twat of all the Russias, Grand Duke of Finland, &c. " Do hereby make known, that our Senate of Fin land having humbly addressed to us a representation reporting in how far the privileged Diving Company established at St. P eters b urg h in the year lot the purpose of rescuing ships and craft wrecked or suffering loss on the Russian coast, in the Gulf of Finland, is empowered, in consequence of said privilege, to ex ercise at present any exclusive tight of diving or salvage within the Province and Government of Wcburg ; and after taking the humble opinion - of our Minister of Finance on the subject, we have been graciously pleased to declare that the right of salving wrecked and stranded vessels on the coast' of the Wy burg Govern ment, which was granted to the said Company under the former Government of the province, shall, in con sequence of the altered organization of the said Govern ment, from hencefoath entirely cease ; and that on all future occasions' of losses at .- - sea in that district, the salvage shall be effected in like manner as in the rest of Finland, which is to serve as a guide to all whom it may concern. . (" Signed by the Senate appointed for Finland in the name and as the will of his Imperial )M ajesty.] " Helsingfors, March 10, 1925. " Mem.—By letters from St. Petersburgh of the 17th (29th) ult. it was the general opinion of the Russian merchants that the Diving Company has no right to act in any part of the empire." TRADE OF HAY 7 L FROM TUE PHILADELPHIA GAZETTE. A Gentleman has furnished us with a statement of the trade of Port-au-Prince during the last year, from which an idea may be formed of the great and growing impottance of the commerce of this island. It will be recollected that there are twelve or thirteen other ports at which foreign vessels are permitted to enter. The statement is by no means full, as no account is taken of lumber, Indian and European goods, and other articles shipped from America. If these were added together, the total would be, 1,200,000 dollars, and it would be found that one-third of the receipts into the Treasury are paid by citizens of the United States. It is proper to observe that much of the coffee exported to France is on American account, and that the Americans are customers of the Haytians for fall one•third of the exportable produce. Even when there was a discriminating duty of five per cent. in favour of the English, our merchants found a yen; in Hayti for some European and Indian goods, and during the last year for domestic cottons. How important must this trade become to both countries now that the duties are equalized. TRADE 01 PORT•AU-PRINOR PO! THE TEAR ENDING DEMMER, 1824. Vesseia.

The wager was between the following young men : TIMM NSA?. SPCOXD NEAT. Daniel Coley—Green Daniel Fowler—Sky Blue George Wright—Orange Charles Howkt—Dark Blue William Mears—Pink George Bromley—Yellow. The second and third men of them first two heat, were to row a third, to see which two out of the four were best, and the con querors, by rowing with the former victors, made a fourtg heat : after which, to decide the grand prize, a fifth heat was rowed between the two first of the fourth heat, the best man to receive a cost and badge as a reward for his exertions, and the other men various sums of money apportioned to their merit. The distance rowed was the whole front of the town of Deptford, or en give it a still more specific locality, three times up and down frost the Creek's mouth to the King's Dock-yard. The first and second heats were but poorly contested. The third heat was remarkably spirited ; and, after a good deal of shill, it terminated in favour of Yellow and Dark Blue, by which' those colours became entitled to row the fourth beat for the privilege of the fifth. The fourth heat was not so good as might have been expected, considering that it was between the four best men one of the six ; there was, however, some good rowing shewn in the !nurse of it, and after a pretty decent struggle, it terminated in favour of the two Blues, who, after half an hour's respite, were re-appointed to their labours, to settle the final heat. The fifth heat was very good, and derived advantages front the number of the rivals having been so considerably lessened. After rowing the first length,bow ever, it became sufficiently evident that the Sky Blue was the stronger colour of the two • and, by the time that the whole dis tance was accomplished, Dark Blue was several boats' lengths in the rear of his more muscular antagonist, who thus became entitled M the first prize. GREAT FOOT RACK FOR 1000 SOVEREIGNS. The great foot-race over Amesbury Course ' between the cele brated runner, Nash, from Nottiselmin, and It.

It had excited the greatest intetest, Nash being considered the fastest runner of the distance of this match (twelve miles) in England, and It was known that Mr. Frampton could do more than ten miles within an boor. The Coupe, of two miles, was thronged with spectators, and the Runners performed each two miles as wader, Mr. Frampton ` receiving two minutes at the finish. sass. it. s. j First two miles 11 32 SeCond 11 3t Third 11 50 Fourth 12 1 Fifth 32 50 Sixth • 12 40 PRAM hos.

We have not as yet heard w: ether any damage hat been sustained horn it. It gradually blended with the clouds in a (patter of an hour, by which time they were immediately 'over Lynn, and poured down torrents of rain, in so vio!erst a rummer As to choke the drains and inundate several :f the streets. ExCCUTION AT Buay.--Tuesday. at twelve o'clock, John Moms, teed and condemned at the late Suffolk Alsizes, for highway robbery at Hadhigh, paid the awful forfeit of his crimes, by an ign'minious death. The unfortunate culprit, since his conviction, evinced that state of mind best suited to make reparation for his manifold offence,. He had acknowledged being tante: net!, with others, in various thefts and robberies. Wheal conveyed from Court, after his sentence, he so lemnly declared to Mr. Orridge, that his co-partner iii crime, Griuney, though privy to the robbery of which they were both convicted, did not participa'e in the violence used towards Raynham, being on the. watch at a distance of thirty or forty yards. This confession was the means of saving Gl imsey's life. Bottoms ow All los•Houaal—At an early hoot as the Bth ult. the extensive ice-house of blr. W. Lag, Philadelthia, was desuoyeci by fue.
