PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. LISBON, Orr. N. On the 14th instant the anniversary of FiROMAIIII VIL birth day, M. Corm, the emissary of his Majesty at this Court, entered a adeche, drawn by two mules, to which two, more were added from a livery-stable. He thus proceeded to Quelus, and in a private audience, presented his credentials. A few Nobles were present, but no particular etiquette was observed either with regard to dress or otherwise. Returning to his house soon after, U. da Corm exposed the arms of Spain over the doer to the ridicule of the public. During the evening of the same day, a hired mob. com posed of the lowest rabble, and headed by some priests and moots, besides the illustrious Chiconia and Miguel Alcside. Chiconis having been proclaimed general of the band, had the modesty to refine this title, and contented himself with that of a simple co lonel, which was conferred amidst the acclamations of those around him In the square of Rocco. The band having divided into small parties, scoured the city in various directioos, insulting and striking all those who would not consent to join them or cry long live Don Matrix! Numbers of windows were also broken, because they were not illuminated.

Fantausam de stroyed the Constitution on his return to that Spain, which had proclaimed him King, and caused its most zealous de feeders to perish by the bands of an ezecndoner. Don Munn, on reaching Lisbon, betrayed his promises and oaths, trampled the Charter under foot, and car..ed to be juridically assassinated the most faithful subjects of the legitimate Monarch.

CEREMONY 02 DEPOSING • SPANISH KING.-In the fifteenth century, when the patience of the Castilian people was exhausted by the crimes and follies of the fla gitious HENRY IV. they, in a body, claimed to them selves, and exercised, the privilege of trying and passing sentence on their sovereign. A spacious theatre having • been erected in a plain near Avila, an image representing the KING was seated on a throne clad in royal robes, with a crown on its head, a sceptre in its hand, and the sword of justice by its side. The accusation against the king was read, and the sentence of deposition was pronounced in the presence of a numerous assembly. At the claw of the first article of the charge the ARCHBISHOP of To- LIDO advanced, and tore the ',Town from the head of the image ; at the close of the second the Comte de PLA• CENTIA snatched the sword of justice from its aide ; at the close of the third the Comte de BENZVENTI wrested the Kepis* from its hand ; at the dose of the last Don DIEGO LOPEZ DE STUNIGA tumbled it headlong from the throne. At the same instant Don ALrONEO HENRY'S brother, was proclaimed King of Castile an d Lae is his stead.- THE KING. WINDSOR, Nov. 6.—His MAJESTY, with the ex ception of one day during the week, has taken his cus tomary drives in the Great Park, from one o'clock until four, accompanied by the LORD STEWARD, in the pony phaeton. Yesterday his MAJESTY visited the Castle, where he is again expected this day, to give instructions for the completion of several minor improvements which are making in the north front. Orders were issued a few days since for a portion of the Royal Household to prepare for their de parture to Brighton, and some were expected to go to morrow morning: this afternoon those orders were coun termanded, and several things which were in readiness to be forwarded (such as plate, &c.) were again unpacked. It was yesterday generally undertood that the Kix o's depar parture was fixed for Thursday next, the 12th inst. and that he would positively go to Brighton on that day. As far as we are in the secret, we should say that the orders given this afternoon render the Royal visit to Brighton still doubtful. The private band have this day received positive orders that they are not to go. The Duke of CUMBERLAND is expected on a visit to the KING at the Royal Lodge, to morrow. Yesterday, about one o'clock, the Duke of Wxt.LiwaTos arrived at the Royal Lodge, and had an audience of some duration of his MAJESTY. His Grace, after partaking of refreshments, proceeded to his seat, Strathfieldsay. Lord CLINTON left the Royal Lodge yesterday morning, where he had been on a visit for a few days to his MAJESTY.

The following letter was written and intended for the " Times" of this morning, in reply to a notice published in that Paper of yesterday, on the subject of the New Play ; but having been too late to expect insertion in that print, I beg you will insert it in the Sri R of this evening —as the intervention of Sunday might weaken the freshness of its interest, as an answer to the paragraph in question. W. " SHAKESPEARE'S EARLY DAYS." TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIKES. Bw—With a sentiment as much of surprise as regret, have I long beheld the mall portion of your daily colonists devoted to the subject of our National Drama. Its rapid decline and long priva tion of It and literary aliment, ought, for the honour of the country, and preservation of taste, to occupy more serious attention with the Journalists of this capital, who, professing to labour fur the happiness of society, sod the improvement of the public mind, should remember that a Theatre has become indispensable to every civilised city, where the cares of business—the pains of study—the fatigues of labour—and I must add, the mini of the idle, require recreation and amusement. The intellectual kind which the Drama affords, renders it not only a duty with the Legislature to promote its encouragement ; but it behoves the philanthropist, the moralist, and man of taste, to aid its progress and defrnd its purity. British genius of past ages has right to the honour of posterity ; and if we neglect the Stage we degrade its most splendid Temple, and de prive our succeeding generations of Inheriting our quota of wealth, which Is the dot) , of the lettered to accumulate for the National Stage—the Stage ff Stakspetsre. The hasty manner, and bandied phraseology in which theatrical reports are commonly drawn up for Newspapers, by the persons to wham that interesting department Is committed, is slighting to the reader, and detrimental to the Drama. Ready to praise or blame under any partial influence, as if the triumph of a bad play, or the condemnation of a good one, was not a betrayal of the pub. 11c, and a deliberate effort to pervert and dishonour national taste and literature—ft fa much easier, I contend, by perusals of Ridge way's ware, and studied periods 1 lama:dos, to declaim respectably upon politics, than it Is for the writer to criticise with correct judgment, and nice tact, the merits and demerits of living Drama, submitted to the sentiments and opinions of all. For this reason, it is incumbent on the conductors of the daily press, so powerfully iniluendal with the public mind, alone to con fine Theatrical criticism to acknowledged taste—impartial judg ment—and thorough understanding of the art, both in its litera ture and stage representation. I have been led. Sir, into these remarks, by the perusal of your paper of this morning—in which the author of a new piece, en titled Shatespairea Ens* Days," very candidly steps forward in his own behalf to conciliate the public, and in the tone of one flushed with success, thanks you for your favourable opinions of his happy production, and to solicit public interest towards another on its way. As your paper was this morning most Impartially open to a dis cusaion on theatrical readings of a certain ward. so shall I be per mitted I hope, for the interest of the national stage, to reply to the author of "likakespeere's Burly Days" In the same paper in which you have done him the honour to accord a place. Unbiassed la my judgment, unconnected with the theatres, sad altogether ignorant of the author, I am alone inspired by , this un usual challenge to public opinion, by an author in person, to ex amine how far he has a right to the bays be so confidently assumes. I assisted at a representation of * Shiskaspasse's Early Days"—and the following are my honest humble opinions of that production.— The poetical character of the opening, in which Oberon, Titania, and a suite of spirits are introduced, necessitated—to pre serve keeping—a consistent exaltation of mind throughout. The supernatural machinery appended to scene. of broad comedy, in Afitinsesser's Niger: Drew*" and " The Trwspest," are incon gruities to which it requires no less a genius than the divine ituAss srmas himself to reconcile us ; and let it be remarked that the situations and character which give the name of Comedy to those delightful Dramas, are of such an imaginative creation, and are surrounded with so much poetic inspirat.on. that the licentious interspersions of the familiar with the sublime and fanciful, never for a moment break the enchantment—nay, the the very wildness of the contrast beneath his immortal pen rather condoms to maintain as in the altitudes of poetic fiction, which every conception of Shakespeare most still inspire. But the production In question falls from the imaginative, pros trate at once into a matter-of-fact dialogue and character, too fre quently as low as pbtkode. The music, and moving pictures on rolling machinery, are foreign to comedy, on our more regular and improved modern stage—those pageants appettain to Opera. A piece, exhibiting Shakespeare for its hero, should conjure up a thousand poetic inspirations, and the beings associated with him in the scene should all, I think, be attired in the charms of fancy ; but in this new piece they are creatures of prose, ignoble in trait, and common in conception. Shakespeare himself Is stripped of the halo we are wont to bang around his memory, and be appears to us, more of the " wool merchant" than the poet. Father, Mother, and Brother Keeley, destitute of business, and mean in language, ringing vulgar changes on the familiar name of Willy. is an insult niche shade of Shakes peare, and offensive to taste.. Sir Thomas Lacy, whose wit is in a great belly—(poor Falstaff! !)—hls Core, whose humour is in his nasal speech and spectacles—Sy-boots, whole comicality consists hi nothing ;—tbe ierentiadv on our Game Laws, the hero's senti mental bombast in defence of poaching delinquency—the business of the lampoon--the mob—the bell-man—and eternal quotation. from Shakespeare's own plays, are paltry, common, and most tire some. They are not dramatic—they are not comedy—they are not even farce. ' The second act, In which we are transported to London, pre sents this monstrous error, that not one personage of the first set is reproduced, save Sir Theweas Lucy at the conclusion, preposterously supposed to come to London to solicit at the hand of Queen Elisa beth herself the punishment of a poor vagabond poet. Here we are dragged through several scenes connected by no developing in terest, as loose and as detached as if collected from various plays, and devoid of any marked character, except that of the Doctor Orthabs, effective but for one moment. The personages are mere sticks, without situation, or any seemingly pronounced object. The allusion to the alma& is a declamatory clap-trap, and has no more to do there than a reference to Mary Stuart. The denoue ment is worthy of the lebyrinthean plot, which, Heaven knows how, conducts us to it. From the royal thrum, surrounded by players in cattily Mier, fihabeepears—matt —ls not rewarded for dramatic talent; the sublimity of his genius is not even recog nised ; he walks from ►eggary in the streets, to the Queen's fa vour and familiar conversadoo ; guess, ob Reader, hoe 1"--.-by his facility to turning compliments to command, at a given time! If memo, therefore, has encoded this new piece, I wish the Author every joy—but feel no mithitioo for his bays. The grati tude kiVowes to Covent Garden Managers is immense. The piece is a ceatinsed paoorama, and display of costume;; wWI. u homer has ben dose to hist which they even refuse to the great Bard himself: nem*, the itembleet walking chancier. represented by the but actors of the house.
