DIEPPE, Serraidant J. —..,—.. This town is beginning to recover some of its former consequence, and is likely to become a fashionable watering-place for the French, under the patronage of the Duchess de Berry. Her Royal Highness attracts a considerable concourse of visitants, by spending a few months here during the bathing season of the year.— The whole appearance of th e town i s c h ange d under I this happy influence, from what it was four or five years back. Dieppe has hitherto been little known to the English traveller, but as a deserted looking melancholy town, which happening to stand on the borders of the sea, served very well as the first stage, or landing place, sur la route de Paris. The place can now boast plenty of English —an undoubted mark of improvement, their presence being the forerunner of a chunge for the better, when it is net the consequence of such a change. The Duchess is the theme of all admiration with the natives of this place. Her words are recorded, and her steps are noted down. Some of her movements would excite the surprise of the English public. in the person of any of their Princesses. For instance, she bathes in the open sea, in presence •f a concourse of spectators every morning. Her dress, or rather her undress, con sists of nothing more than a simple bathing gown, and she is 'always to be distinguished by her long hair Boating over her shoulders, and her interesting efforts at im provement in the art of swimming. In this art, she is ' becoming a tolerable adept • and it is remarked by the French, that the mother of Henri IV. was skilled in the same exercise. The Duchess seldims misses taking her bath, and she walks into the sea from a tent pitched on the beach. Her manners are plain and unaffected, with a mixture, however, of the national levity, or pied du cecur as it is called here—the native playfulness of her disposition, indeed, sometimes displays itself in the water, where she feigns terror of the coming wave, and pretends to fly its approach. These little traits of good humour, never fail to draw forth the loud applause of the bye-standers._ _ Many acts of charity and good feeling, on the part of this Royal Lady, are spoken of. She visits all the Con. vents and Hospitals of the place and neighbourhood, and contributes to their funds. Nor are instances of in- 1 trepidity wanting to make up the compliment of virtue fit for a descendant of Henri IV. On the 7th, some thing like a tempest visited the town. AU who dared brave its fury fi icked to the end of the jetty, to witness the desperate efforts of the fishing boats to come safe into port. The force of the wind, joined with the heavy spray which broke in sheets of foam over the spot, ren dered it difficult even for mariners to keep their footing. After witnessing the safe entrance of several boats, amid the shouts of the spectators, her Royal Highness re tired. Before the day was over, however, a poor yea ther-beaten fisherman, who was at the helm, was washed overboard sit the very mouth of the port, in sight of his wife and son. The Duchess, upon hearing of this melan choly accident, countermanded a ball fixed for that night at her residence. - By attentions of this kind, which evince a sympathy in the feelings of her inferiors, she contrives to gain all hearts • and, perhaps her success is not undeserved. A fanciful instance of her anxiety to please occurred the other day. A young girl, blind from her infancy, and possessed of extraordinary powers of execution on the plum, had given a specimen of her talent before her Mira' Highness. Desiring to make her a handsome present, she went to one of the ornamental ivory manu factories, for which Dieppe is famous, and shutting her eyes, sought by the touch the article which seemed most pleasing to the mind, during the suspension of the faculty of sight. The idea has been applauded to the skies. 1 Eva , ' day brings its separate diversions fir the entertainment of the Royal visitant. Races, feats of strength, sham lights, and exeardons ea the sea, fans the boldness of the day ; and dancing aad music comma he night. But aU these gay scenes are 'bent to vanish—the bathing season is drawing as a close, the Princess Royal is abort to depart, and the Dieppois are already sad by anticipation. 'this the Mandarin, calling an o ccr of justice, ordered the complainant immediately to be scourged. On this a band, composed of robbers, to . whom the Chinese gave the name of Gan-char,, advanced from the multitude which had assembled to see the execution, and takidg advantage of the opportunity to exercise their trade, occasioned such tumult and confusion, and threw such a quantity of stones, that many persons were severely hurt, and among the rest two Mandarins. `The robbers, upon this, precipitately entered the city, threw stones at the houses of the Christians by which they passed, and breaking open the doors, robbed the house of Major Pavacho, and many other persons. They then passed on to attack the Senate-house likewise, and knowing that the said Major was in the palace of the Governor, who was himself in the Fortilina do Monte, with the members of the illustrious Senate and the Ouvidor, they proceeded to the said palace, and at tempted to enter it by force, but were repelled. When it was sees from this fortress that great confusion had taken place in the city, a detachment of soldiers was sent thither, along with other persons, accompanied by a portion of negro slaves, who in a shirt time put them to Right. The robbers, however, spreading themselves through the Bazaar, and en Oppottuaity oft: ing by the distance is which Terrafiro is situated, and by their having their boats on that beach, they ran thither and were enabled to commit rdbberies likewise in that place to a considerable extent. They were only driven away and forced to embark by a field-piece brought against them. Two other field pieces were placed in the square of the Senate, ready to be used in case it was found necessary. The Mandarins passing through the city in the height of the tumult, and not being able to appease it, were stoned afresh, and retired to the New Pagoda, beyond the city, whence they were only enabled to escape when tranquillity was restored. It is true, that the robbers, besides pillage, committed destruction in the houses, but they did not do it with impunity ; for those who came out to quell the mob performed their duty so well, that they wounded many of them, and some of them se verely. The number of Chinese who came to see the execution might be within a few of 3,000, of whom a considerable portion were engaged in the riot. This was the first time that we bad observed a formal rising of the Chinese against their ownAnthorities. Not even respect for the prisence of Quan Chew Fu, (Governor of Canton) who was delegate of the Vice roy, and was presEnt to witness the execution, could restrain them, although he was accompanied by ether Mandarins, who were likewise maltreated, one of them, who was on horseback, being dismounted. On the 14th (next day) the Lan-chair returned to the Bazaar, and endeavoured to prevent the sale of commodities to the Christians. They were, however, by the precautions taken, forced to fly, and tranquillity appears to be re-established. The best understanding and harmony exist between our authorities and those of the Chinese, from whom we have demanded a signal satisfaction for the insults which were offered us on that day, and which they permitted. • We shall publish the alidal correspondent.* which has taken plate between tkeprecurveir of the city and the Mandarins, as mean as we obtala a copy alt. TUMULT OF THE CHINESE OF MACAO. The following curious statement is translated from a Portuguese Paper, entitled Gaeta a Macao. Our readers are aware that Macao is a Portuguese settle meat, in the Bay of Canton, and that it is the only esta- blishment of foreigners permitted in the Celestial Empire. The Portuguese /obtained this singular privilege as a reward for a signal service performed to the Chinese Government in destroying pirates that infested their coasts. The transaction here recorded resembles in all its features (except the treatment of the Mandarins) what lately happened to our own traders and those of the (Irked States: MACAO, Maacm is. There took place in this City, on the 11th February, a horrible assassination of a Chinese, perpetrated by a native of Timor ' the slave of Major Joseph Caetano Favacho, as will be seen by the narrative and sentence which have been published, This was a very nice case, And one of the greatest difficulty in this country, as the Chinese Authorities imperatively demanded satisfac tion for it. The moat illustrious Governor of the City, conjointly with the illustrious Senate and the ouvidor, conducted in the most prudent and cautious manner, in order to concil'ate the Mandarins, without giving up the assassin to the power of their barbarous justice, as was anciently the case; and having conformed in every thing to the Royal Ordonnances, they amicably ob tained the object which they aimed at. The assassin having been sentenced to death by the Junta of Justice 1 1 of this City, was destined for execution on the ISth of Much. His execution accordingly took place at eight o'clock in the morning of that day, on the exercise , ground, in the presence of the Mandarins and a number pf Chinese spectators, who came to see him hung, and, his hands and bead cut off, conformably to his sentence. At this moment, a Chinese prostrating himself at the foot of one of the principal Mandarins, begged leave humbly to speak, and declared that the real murderer was not the person who had just been executed, but Major Joseph Caetano Favacho himself; that therefore the Chinese were not satisfied with the justice which the Christians had carried into elect—adding, that the Christian were not is the habit of doing justice. On SPAIN AND PORTUGAL. PROM THE FRENCH PAPERS., LISBON, Barroom 4. A great number of persons, amour whom are persons of note implicated in the late conspiracy, have been ar rested within these few days. The Grand Prior of the order of Comex, and an ex-Chief of division in the de partment of Foreign Affairs, who had been arrested about two months ago, as being accomplices in another conspiracy, directed from their presence the mutiny of the police guard. These two personages have conse quently been more closely watched. At Villaviciosa there was on the 41st of August, during the fair of that place, a slight movement, which had no serious result. Some turbulent monks were the 1 1 instigators. They have been arrested and brought to the prisons of Lisbon. The merchant vessel the Nueva Pied& arrived from Rio Janeiro the 26th of August. She brought despatches for the Government and commercial correspondence.— Letters from that quarter announce that Admiral Lobo had been tried and condemned to death for the crime of cowardice: They add, that two Members of the Su preme Tribunal had likewise been condemned to death and decapitated for the crime of collusion. These letters give no further details on the object of this collusion. The ship of war Don John the Sixth, which is carry ing out the deputation appointed to compliment the Emperor, Don Pedro, on his accession to the throne of Portugal, had not yet arrived at Rio Janeiro. She was, however, spoken with near the coast. Much anxiety was felt at Rio Janeiro on account of the news which had arrived of the reverses experienced by the troops and the squadron employed ageinst the Republic of Buenos Ayres. The Council of State pressed the Emperor to terminate the war by ceding to that Republic the Cisplatine provinces; but his Imperial Majesty shewed himself little disposed to adopt the ad vice of his Councillors. • MADRID, Semmes 7. There have arrived at the office of the Inspector General of Cavalry, and at the office of the Minister of War, despatches from the Captain General of the pro 'vine of Estremadura, which announce that two squa drons'of the 4th Regimeht of Cavalry, which formed the garrison' of Olivenza, have deserted into Portugal, with arms and baggage, standards and military chest, having at their head their Officers, with their Com mandant, Lieutenant Colonel Desgand. Immediately after the Minister of War had received this intelligence, he dispatched a courier to the Captain- General of Estremadura, with an order to dismiss the officers of a battalion of artillery which is at Olivenza, and to cause the subalterns and soldiers of that battalion t) retire from that fortress to Badajoz. • These facts, which may be relied upon, have caused a great sensa tion in the King's council, where it is allowed that if defection commences amongst the troops of the line, the Royalist volunteers, of whom they talk so much, would not be able to support the Government for twenty-four hours. A scene which may have important consequences took place on the sth inst. at St, Ildefouzo. [PRICE SEVENVENCE. The following is a statement of what took place:— When the King returned from his promenade, the troops of the Castle paid him the accustomed honours. These honours consist chiefly in saluting the King with the colours, a salute which belongs only to his M.sjesty.— However, in half an hour afterwards, the Infant Don Carlos having arrived, the troop formed itself, and the standard-bearer paid to the Prince the same honour as to the King; but the Ge. eral, Clint d'Espagne, who was present, quickly raised the colours with one hand, .nd with the other gave a blow m the Officer who was lowering them. An inquiry is proceeding actively in.() this affair, both against the standard.beater, and the General who struck him. The Supreme Council of War is occupied, at the present moment, with the report require.] by the Mi nister of that department, on the expediency and MAW of making a levy of 50,000 men. Troops have been sent to Cnenza, where, for eight days past, the Royalist Volonteers have bet n committing excesses, and where the Authorities have been enable to re-establish order. The police has discovered and seized a considerahle nun of owswy, which the Apostolical party was sending into Portugal. CORONATION : OF THE EMPEROR NICHOLAS. -.EDI ..- 1 1 We have already from time to time riven to our Readers, accounts of the preparations made for the per formance of this august ceremony ; no expense had been spared•to render it magnificent, to impart to it all the solemnity of which the pageant was susceptible, and to make it an impressive and imposing spectacle in the eyes of the people. The accounts which we have at present received are but - imperfect, still they ate suffi cient to shew, that on the part of those who had the management of the pageant, nothing had been neg lected which could add to its splendour and magni ficence. The ceremony was confined within the walls of the Kremlin, and that part of the Palace through which the procession was to pass on it; way into the Church, was entirely enclosed, and a scaffolding erected on each side of the interior, upon which was placed teats for the spectator!, who were accommodated with plac • on paying a fee of from 25 to 75 rubles, the payment varying in proportion to the nature of the accommoda tion. The Cathedral is very confined in space, and not capable of containing more than five hundred persons. The pressure here was extreme, not a place was left va cant, and scarcely one-fourth of those admitted were able to obtain seats; the heat, as may be conceived, was oppressive in the extreme, and many of the females, overcome by that and the pressure to which they were unavoidably exposed, fainted,, and were ()aged to be removed previous to the commencement of the cere mony, to witness wnich they had subjected themselves 'to so much inconvenience, At the appointed hour, however, the ceremony commenced, and in the gratifi cation of the present; the pains and inconveniences of the past were forgotten. The Emperor and his Imperial Consort were, in their progress to the Cathedral, greeted with the warnsest marks.of regard by the spectators.— Her Majesty is stated to have suffered considerable in convenience from the beat, although she supported the fatigue of the ceremony much better than had been an. ticipated. The ceremony of placing the Imperial Crown on the bead of his Majesty, and the conclusion of the ceremony, were announced to the multitude assembled without the walls of the Cathedral by discharges of ar tillery, and received by thew with loud acclamations. On their return, the Emperor aril the Empress, as they passed,were greeted most enthusiastically by the people. The Grand Duke Constantine, who arrived at Mos. cow a few days before the Coronation took place, was present, and aided in the ceremony. He occupied a prominent place in the procession and in the Cathedral during the performance of those religious rites which accompanied the placing the Imperial Diadem en the head of Nicholas; thus giving, by his presence, his ap. proval and consent to an act which has placed himself in the situation of a subject, where his birthright would have made him sov?reign, and resigning, as it would appear, of his own free will, the Imperial Sceptre to be wielded by his younger ►rother, to ss hose nod he must in future bend in humble obedience. Among the extra ' ordinary and mysterious state dramas, which, within the last half century, we have seen represented ors the stage of Europe, this of Russia is not the least extraor dinary or mysterious. The time may, perhaps, arrive when the curtain will be withdrawn, and the secret mo tives which have actuated those supporting the princi. pal character in this extraordinary piece of State ma. chinery will be made known to the world. Constantine left Moscow two days after the ceremony, and returned to Warsaw. The city was most brilliantly illuminated during three successive evenings; and in the general display the ancient Kremlin shone forth conspicuously its venerable towers presented a blaze of light, proceed ing from variegated lamps of the most resplendent co 'lours, with which they were thickly studded. From these rejoicings, though not participating per. tonally in them, an Englishman may still derive an in• terest and gratification, in finding that his native coun. try even here, as she does in all other places, and on every occasion, excites the admiration of those with whom she comes in contact. It is said, that the Duke of Devonshire,the Representative of our Monarch in this Northern Pageant, has by his princely bearing, and magnificent and splendid mode of living, etched un bounded admiration in the minds of the Russian Sove reign and his Court. None of the Representatives of the other Sovereigns of Europe, could at sit approach, much less vle, with his Grace, in the splendour and state with which his mission is characterised. Great and active preparations have for some time past been making for a splendid ball. which his Grace is about to give to the Russian and Foreign Nobility assembled at Mos cow; tickets have been issued to five hundred persons.
