The following are extracts: FROM THE LISBON GAZETTE, 18TH OCTOBER. Was-Orrict, Orrossa 17. The Count d'Alva, in a letter of the 13th, writes, that on the following day he would join the regiment of in fAntry. No. 2, which left Lagos with the militia of that town ; he has with him the 2d regiment of artillery, with 347 men, and the regiment of militia of Beja was arriving. The Captain commanding at Silnes writes from that town on the 13th. that the rebels seemed disposed to retire into Spain. The accounts from the provinces of the North are from the 11th to the 13th ; nothing had occurred to disturb the public tranquillity. wmi-Orner, °emus Is. The General Minister of War, commanding the divi• :ion of Operation, writes from Vendas Novas on the 17th inst. that the division is animated by the best senti ments. The infantry passed the night of that day at St. Thiago de Escorial, and the cavalry at Vendas Novas. He transmits a dispatch of the 16th, from the General of Alem.Tejo, who, according to the desire of the Gene., ral of Algarve, causes to march to Beja, to be at the disposal of that General, a sufficient force and ammu nition to act against the rebels. This force is to reach IRO at the latest on the 19th. All the troops in the province of Alem-Tejo are animated ►y the best spirit. The latest accounts from the provinces of the North are of the 13th and 14th ; public tranquillity had not been interrupted. The General of Algarve writes from Almodovar, on the 15th, that he thought to march on the 19th, with all the forces which he expected, and which were to assemble the preceding day, for Faro, and to go to Tavira, where be would fix his bead-quarters ; that the enthusiasm of the troops is as great as possible, as well as of all Algarve in general, as is affirmed by the Ma gistrates of the several districts who present themselves, with the entire corporations, and the Officers of Militia of Tavira ; that he received notice that the rebels assembled in Tavira, and intended to march to Castro Marim, to watch for an opportunity to escape to Aya moule; that desertion has already began among them, And wip increase, as they discover the falsehoods by which they have been deceived. OCTOBER 21 OCTOlit 20. The General of Algarve writes from Almodovar on the 17th, that he had given orders to all the troops to march on the 19th to Faro, where they were to arrive on the 19th; his entrance into Tavira will take place en the 23d; it was known that the rebels had retired from all points of Castro Marim and Tavira, and it is supposed they intended to form in the former place, to which the General bad determined to march on the 24th. The best spirit continues to animate all the troops and the inhabitants of Algarve. The communication between Lagos and Lisbon is already opened, and the Colonel, Governor of that town, writes, on the 15th instant, that he had published a proclamation of General Count d'Alva, which had given inexpressible satisfaction to the people ; salutes of artillery were fired, &c. Public tranquillity was re establisht d there. Tne C , rregidor and Mayor of Felfo write, on the 17th, that on the preceding day at three in the after naNn, the last force of the rebels had left that place, pro ceeding by hasty marches to Tavirs, after having taken from the public coffers all the money they contalied, Measures had been adopted to guard the town and re "store tranquillity, which had been effected in perfect order.—The accounts from Minh°, Trapos-Montes, and Alens-Teji, continue to .affirm that public tranquillity had not been interrupted. The following is the proclamation of the Conde de Alva, alluded to in the above: "INHABITANTS 01 TH2 KINGDOM Ott ! A military faction has commenced in this fine country a revolution, for the purpose of attacking the sacred and legitimate rights of King Don Pedro, our Sovereign Forged decrees, inflammatory proclamations, and what ever human wickedness suggested to Deceive the un wary, were the means which the wicked employed to ruin the prosperity which this country enjoyed. —.The genius of Evil, enraged at seeing peace, plenty, and obedience to the laws prevail here ; and foreseeing also the future prosperity which was pre paring by the establishments that are to be erected, resolves to bring among you the worst of all scourges, and with this view inspired wicked men with the idea of revolution, the inevitable ruin of every country in which it banks out. Well,.then, inhabitants of Algarve! The Conde D'Alva, Military Governor of this kingdom, is among yon, and will put an end to the affliction which oppresses your hearts. He has al ready assembled the brave regiments of Artillery, No. 2, of Infantry, No. 2, which, refusing to favour the in famous cause of rebellion, are ready to shed all their blood for the invaluable rights of the legitimacy of Don Pedro IV. our King. Battalions of infantry, squadrons of cavalry, and parks of artillery, are already march ing to Upper Alem-Tejo; all are going to fall on the evil•minded who date to rise against the legitimacy of the Sovereign, and exemplary punishment will sheer how unhappy will be the fate of him who shall support their cause, or give: theth any kind of suc cour or refuge. The Conde de Alva, knowing the honourable character of the Algarvians, doubts not that on this occasion, they will second him with .tll their hearts, by doing everything to retard the rebels, not obeying their commands, intercepting their scanty resources; in a word, giving the most evident proofs of their zeal in the service of the King, and of the social virtues which distinguish them. The Conde de Alva promises to every soldier, who shall present himself in arms at Alnso-Dovar, within six days from the publica tion of the present proclamation, that he shall be par doned for his desertion, and be again received into the ranks. . THE CONDE DE ALVA, - Military Governor of Algarve. Head-quarters at Mertola, Oct. 12, 1126. The French Papers last received contain but little intelligence. According to an article from Trieste, the new expe dition preparing at Alexandria was en the ewe of sailing, to endee ♦our to retrieve the affairs of bean= Patna, who had lately experienced considerable losses in his various marches and counter marches in the Mores. This expedition consisted of twenty-seven skips; and to the shame and disgrace of Christian Governments, "the transports were almost all European vessels let out to the Viceroy of Raver." If this be correct, how is the fact to be re conciled will the interest which all the Allied Powers are now represented as taking hubs fate of the Greeks? They tell the Divan that Greece must be allowed to resume ber national existence, and to enjoy those rights for which she has so long and so bravely fought. They declare that all is unanimity throughout t►e Christian world on that subject; and that the Porte can and must only claim' seignorage little more than nominal, over her emancipated vassal—and yet at the same time they allow their vessels and their subjects to convey the armaments of Egypt, and thus possibly to elect the total destruction of those for whom they treat, before they have obtained in Council what they force them to en danger in the Add! In forming the new Board at the Stamp-office, the Government have been actuated entirely by a desire to be guided by the opinion of the Commissioners of Enquiry, who, from their reports upon various other departments, and their labours generally, have de servedly acquired the confidence of the Government and of the Country. The following are the names of the new Comtnis _ . . : the Hon. JAMaI -KEITH STEWART, late Comptroller of Army Accounts, is to be the new Chairman ; Mr. THORNTON, from the Audit Office ; Mr. Bomar, and Mr. %GLUMLY, to be Commissiorters. Mr. Sarrowros, Mr. HALLAM, Mr. Kraorrow, and Mr. JONNSTON, are removed. CITY. TWO O'CLOCK. The Coosol market has remained Meady during the morning, with a fluctuation of about j per cent. Consols, which were in the earlier part of the morning at 82j, receded again to the opening price, -311 82 for the Account, and up to the present time may be quoted at 82 buyers for the Account, and 81i $2 for Money. No speculation of consequence has taken place. Owing to the easterly winds, we have no arrivals front South America,nor from any other quarter, of consequence. In the Foreign Market all South American Securities have improved. • THE DtrEE ow YORK.—Yesterday, the report of the I state of the Duke of Y oai i health was “ His Royal Highness con tinues to goon extremely well."

BRIGHTON, Nov. 6.—Wednesday last the troops quartered in Brighton had a field day upon the Downs, which attracted a large concourse of spectators. Lord Lvszaocn (who has been residing here for some time) was on the ground, and appeared highly de. lighted with the fine discipline displayed by the 6th Hussars, com manded .by Lord Wimax Russell.; and the 32d Light Infantry, 'commanded by Coon. The skirmishing of the Light In fantry over some broken ground, and through some plantations, was very fine : their retiring in close column, forming squares, and re. caving the attacks of the Cavalry, were performed with the utmost precision and steadiness. Nothing could eneed the steady manner in which the Hussars advaziced to charge the Infantry, and the re gularity of their retiring on receiving their fire. The horses appear to be in the finest condition, and the Regiment altogether in the highest state of discipline.

The tragedy of Richard the Third was performed at this Theatre last night, with Mr. Wau.a.ez as the representative of the Duke of Hjs performance had some fine touches of eneigy and power, and was always reppectable. In the more stirring scenes of the fourth and fifth acts, the energies of th e actor i ncreased with the increased power of the situations, and many of the points told with decided effect. The Tent Scene was well imagined, and executed with vigour and judgment. But the desperation and fall of the tyrant in the field constituted the finest part of the pet. formance. Mr. Coores was the Richmond, and his representation of that character is well known for its spirit and just discrimination. Mrs. MiGiaacts played the Queen Mother. The general appoint ments of the play were very superior. Dee Frirsekssie had been announced to follow the Tragedy, but bills were posted at the doors with this curious intimation ; " The Public are respectfully informed, that owing to the unex pected continuation of Mr. Hoan's absence, "Der Frieschotx can not be performed." The litskeeper's Daughter was the Afterpiece substituted; and it went off with infinite eclat. V COVENT-GARDEN. The Tragedy of Femme maintained, on its repetition last nlpht, the ground which it had already obtained in public favour.. The House rung with applause on the fall of the curtain ; and Indeed the general style of the production, and the spirit with which the Actors enter into their respective parts, amply merit the approbation be. stowed en it. Major-General Sit JAsa es LYON, K.C.B. and K.H.C. accompanied by his Aide-de-Camp, Lieutenant Colonel Currant, and the Brigade Major of the District Lieutenant Colonel Butzter, have been going the usual tour of inspection lately. The last few days the various Depots in the Isle of Wight, have been visited, and several Regiments reviewed at Portsmouth. The Hon. Geoaoit FORESTER got a bad 1411, hunting in WareOckshire, last week. This young Gentlem an i s a ll owe d to be one of the finest riders of the day; he was breaking a four-year old, the animal, high spirited and hot, rushed and tumbled at a fence, and jumped upon his rider. We are happy to add, Mr. Foasstaais doing well. . _ Sir WALTRit Scan. was at the Odenn on Seiirdsy. The piece was liinshoe. The Illustrious Foreigner,who was in one of the boxes with his daughter, was soon recognised by some indivi duals, who thought it their duty to accompany him to the saloon between the acts. One of the Ciceroni, after pointing out the hp... of Coaatan.t.x and Mourn, which adorn the gallery, said to the Scotch poet," Voila de yes antis" (friends of yours). Sir WA urea examined the , busts with much attention. That is Mouras, said he, to his daughter/in English; and then turning to his attendants, thanked them for their courtesy. Sir WALTTO is to remain only a few days. His physiognomy is very expressive, and is well given by Commix. On looking at Sir Wavrea SCOTT, one cannot help recalling what Chiantis NODICR said of his bust, in his Prow/In:leen Scosac—" It has the forehead of Hours, and the mouth of Rain, ' Lars—k must be a striking likeness."—Qstoridienne. Yesterday evening, about five o'clock, as the Hon. Lucerne &rawness was returning home io his gig, attended by his servant, the horse, in turning Lincoln's Inn-fields became very restive, and coming in contact with a post at the corner of the street, threw Loth of them out of the vehicle. The boy fell first, and his master upon him. The boy was picked up unhurt, bet the Hon. Gentleman has severely bruised his artn.—Neither the horse nor gig received any damage. We are assured, says the Quoadienne, that the French Government offered to Mr. Secretary Cassmo the Grand Getdon of the Legion of Honour, and that the Right Hon.. Gentleman declined it. Sir RICHARD HOARR having at the desire of the neighbouring farmers, preserver( his hares for their amusement in cruning. has now at their desire ordered them to be destroyed. Oberon, the last of Walnut's productions, is about to be brought forward again at Covent-Garden. In consequence of the losses sustained by the Farmers frost the severe drought of the last summer, W ILLIA M CONSTA sue MAXWILLI, Esq. of Everingbam, at his half yearly audit, held on Monday and Tuesday, returned to his numerous tenantry in the East ' Riding of Yorkshire, 15 per cent. as a deduction from their rents. It is remarkable, that the inhabit.ints of ltoman Catholic countries generally distinguish themselves from those who profess the Protestant faith, by an abominable disregard to clean. Soma. The immense circle of Germany includes several states of each different persuasion ; and any one may observe, upon entering a Genet= village or town, infallible indications of the nature of the prevailing belief. At the same time. as if to counterbalance this advantage, it is observable that the Roman Catholic Ladies of Ger many are, generally speaking, finer and prettier than their Protes tant countrywomeo.—The Young Itifiemar's Comrade. The Sudbury Freemen who dispute Mr. Wruts's eligibility to sit in the House of Cannons, met again yesterday, bat merely decided to meet again. Yesterday an Inquest was held at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, touching the death of Thomas Ward. The deceased had been to Spita/fields market on Saturday, and on returning in his master's cart down Walbrook, the bone took fright, when the de ceased's great coat, in endeavouring to get out, got entangled, and the wheel went over him. He was conveyed to the Hospital, and died in a short time. The can belonged to Mr. Samuel Brandon, of Rotberhitbe. Verdict—Accidental Death. Deodand is. BASINGITOEr CANAL Cc:l4A Nl.—A Meeting of the Proprietors, in the above undertaking, was held yes terday at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, for the pur pose of receiving the Report of the Committee, re lative to the amount of tolls collected, and the money expended, from Lady Day to Michaelmas, 1826. From the Report it appeared, that durilig the Last *ix months 13,983 tons had passed up and gown t' e canal, t e tolls collected on which amounted to 1,6131. Os. • Id. which, together with other incidental reczipts, f .rmed a sum of 1,7341.45. 3d. The salaries. materials, &c. had, during the same period,amounted to 1,193/.195.2.d. leaving a balance in the hands of the Treasurer of 15401. 2s. Id- The Report states that the extreme drought of the last summer had considerably effected the tonnage, especially on coals. No material increase 'in the receipts is expected until a junction with the River Kennet is effected, and to that object. the -at tention of the Committee will be chiefly directicl:- 1)11uch of the hostility of the landowners h .d abated, the merits of the proposed junction becoming better &Down, and it is therefore thought that a successful application to Parliament will be made next year.— The Report concludes by observing, that the major part of the income will be for the present expended in repairs, in order that the existing trade may be preserved. After some conversation, the Report was adopted, and the usual thanks having been vo ed tu the Chairman and Committee, the meeting Fep 'rated.
