According to accounts received at Paris on the 27th, we understand that DallAtAllres head-quarters remained at Witepsk, but kis said that preparations had been made for a for ward movement, and that a general action was ex pected to be fought in a few days. 'arth'er letters by the NerruNE were received yes. tetchy from Cadiz. Accounts had arrived there of the diversion on the side of Valencia, attempted by the Murcian army; and of the action which had taken place I.n the 21st of July, between General tYDoNautes coi ps and a division of St/Crier's troops.

Last night, after Mr. Dtssown's successful Melo drama of the Foundling of de Fond, the revived farce of the Doldrinn, or 1819, was enacted at this Theatre. It is a compound of absurdity and nonsense, and but for the exquisite acting of MUNDPI and MATTHIMS, as two excentric old Gentlemen, it would have been consigned, with the Hero of the Plot, to another se ven years' repose on the Prompter's shelf. The ex quisite acting of the two performers just named, made the buffoonery of the others barely tolerable, and fre quently excited a general laugh, but this is all we can say. Mrs. GLOViR, as the Heroine of the Play, dis played great Tragic powers, but her forte is evidently Comedy. JONEwp who is an excellent Fop, made but a sorry figure in the Foundling, and his costume was at variance with every thing like dramatic effect.— It was the gay spangled livery of Astley's Equestri ans, certainly not the garb of a young Nobleman. Ttie House was crowded in every direction—an honournble testimony of Public approbation to the spirited exertions of the Gentleman who has been so often confirmed by the Loan CUANCELLOR in the an. duons task of piloting this stout little bark through the shoals And quicksands of a Chancery suit, which would have depressed the spirits and shipwrecked the courage of any other man than Mr. Momus. Maxecestsa.—An important cafe here i.een decickd at these Assizes. It was an action brought by Mc asrs. Wiwi and Dtmcaorr against the Hundiel f ford, for the recovery of the amount of the loss s,,sa tamed by the destruction of their weaving mill, at West Haughton, a. short time ago, by a mo'i i who set it on fire. A verdict was given foi the Plaintiffs, to the full amount of their damages, which were up. wards of £7OOO. Flllllll6--&unday morning a large rick of hay, con taining about 120 tons, belonging to Ml. J. atvies, of Hinckwick, near Stow, in Gloucestershire, took fire, from having been put together toc early, and was totally consumed. Tuesday night a fire broke out in a house in Unior.a street, Mary-la-bonne, which entirely consumed it; but, by the activity' of the firemen, was prevented from spreading further. Yesterday morning, about five o'clock, a fire br, ke out in the house of Mr. SAVIDGa, Venetian blii d maker, in the New Cut, Blackfriarls-road, which iv , * completely destroyed, together with all }its materia4 and stock in trade. The family had but just tilos ter effect their escape, nearly naked,. RIVER PIRATES.—As Mr. GRONOPRY, of Westmin ster-road, who has a pleasure sailingsmack on the Thames, was sailing down the River on Monday evening, about nine o'clock, between Battersea and Westminster-bridFe, he was boarded by three ruffians, who demanded his money, which he delivered, to the amount of £9, in notes and cash. MURDRlL—Yesterday Benjamin CliArd was brought up for examination at the Police Offi.e, Shadwell, sellarged With the wilful murder of Patrick Doyle.— It appeared, by the evidence of Wood, the Headbo. 'rough or Constable at Poplar, that in wing his rounds in the neighbourhood, on Wednesday, thif 96th of August, at a quarter past ten o'clock" at night, be fell in with prisoner and the deceased, who were engaged in fighting. He thought proper only to separate them, and they at this time went away.— He afterwards the same night metlhem, and fouled that they had renewed the contest. He then made up to them a seednd time, at which Clifford effected his escape by running away. On approaching the spot 'where they had been engaged, he discovered Doyle, the deceased, leaning against a palling, and almost exhausted _from the loss of blood, soon after which he expired. A surgeon deposed, that the deceased bad one wound in his face near the eye, and another iq side,, between two of his. ribs, and a little below !be' vertebra of the left bre a st.

Cueozziat's INciuzsr.—An Inquisition was taken. yesterday, in St...James's-street, before A. Gala., Esq. coroner for Westminster, on the body of Wm. Bryant, who WAS supposed to have been killed by a blow he received from the waiter at the Coach and Horses chop-house. Dover -street, on Friday last. J. Sliergold, the waiter, was taken into custody on naiday, and examined at Bow-street.

The LORD MAYOR having " saddled white Surrey for the field," gracefully threw himself into the saddle, at the Mansion House, and, followed aad preceded by the usual officers of civic state, proceeded to New gate, where, according to the custom of the jolly to pets who were his Lordship's predecessors, Mr. Nov ki AN, the keeper, proffered the osual tankard; but whether filled with Princely Champagne, or beg garly " heavy-wet," this deponent sauh not, the chalice not be . ng permitted to ceme in contact with his lips.
