By the arrival of the Panta frigate, from Monte Video, we learn that his Majesty's orders for the blockade I the pert of Buenos Aires - were chiefly enforced, and has caused great consternation in that town. There is no doubt of the defeat of Rovero by Bento Concalves, as it is confirmed by the frigate. Monte Video was tranquil, and had abundance of provisions, Our squadron had taken a vessel b-longing to the enemy, laden with stores, and detained another, with Dutcb colonists, winch remained at Monte Video.

A very considerable number of London and country buyers have been in the market; and though their par. chases have been in comparatively small parcels, they have tended considerably. to diffuse the confidence of an early amendment. i~laj•,r MOLLOY, of Strawberry-hill, in the King's County, Ireland, having gut possession of a considerable farm by ejectment, situate at Ibnane, near Ballinahown, in the county of Westmeath, sent his nephew, Mr. DELMONT, to the premises for the purpose of sowing the ground, with twenty ploughs and as many harrows. On the night of the 28th of March, being the day of his arrival, the house in which be lay was attacked by no less, it is supposed, than one thousand men, who dragged Dr. Dscausrr out and beat him in the most unmerciful manner, inflicting a deep cut in his head, and not desisting until they thought him dead. They then demolished the house and entirely destroyed the whole of the farming utensils. It is said that the Colombian Minister has obtained a premise of the assistance he has found it necessary to solicit from some London capitalists, provided the trans action receives the approval of his Government.

His Majesty's Levee, yesterday, was perhaps the most numerous ever seen : persons of all ranks were present. Thtte were no porters, no guards, no janissaries of any kind, and nooetiquette.— Without any previous application, without formalities of any kind, people present themselves, inscribe their names, and are introduced into the antichamber, where whoever pleases sits down, while he may see his King standing in the next apartment, receiving, with an affability which may truly be alled paternal, whoever is pre sented to him in his turn, accordin j to the list. Foreigner, who are accustomed to enter Royal residences only through a forest of bayonets, carbines, or halberts, and after hav ing gene through a number of formalities which are always trou blesome and often ridiculous, cannot believe their own eyes. It map be said, without exaggeratiou, that it is more easy to enter the abode of the King of the Netherlands, and to be received there as one might be by a good father, than it is In some countries, not far off, to approach a petty Clerk, who will often affect the most unsupportable arrogance and the most ridiculous gravity. The Levee yesterday was not over till seven o'clock. We ob served several Catholic Priests and M. Libig Bagnsno, famous for the sacrifices he has made for France, and the terrible return he has received for them. His Majesty will set lot early to morrow morning for the Hague. KING'S THEATRE. Pietro r Eremila was again repeated on Saturday, and excellently sustained. The great attraction of the evening, however, was the production of the long-promised ballet La Naassance de Yens, and the splendid manner in which it has been prepared will prove a great attraction, while it does so much credit to the skill and taste of Mr. D'F,ovlza-s's talents. It opens with a view of the sea; a dance of Faris and Nymphs is interrupted by a storm—the waves are violently agitated—the devils are then dispelled by a thunder bolt, and Venus, Mad. lisnca an, ari,es with Cupid, Mstasts„ a very interesting child, from a cloud of foam. The Nymphs and Fauns worship the new-born Goddess, who is received by Zephyr, Coutou ; Flora, Mad. FLZUROS Apollo, Ls BLOUD ; and Aram Mad. Ls Moen. Venus is then conveyed in a car to the isl And of Paphoi. In the next scene, the Graces conduct her to the Temple of Plea sure: Apollo, Mars, Vulcan, and Meicury, 'Fannon; contend for ber hand; Vulcan Gowns, lays his sceptre at her feet—ber choice is thus decided, and the Ballet concludes. Tt was received throughout with great applause ; the scenes are well executed. The house was full, and the pit in particular was extremely crowded. THE ARMY. Last week orders were received at Plymouth for the embark. mints of Royal Marines in the Java and Success, to be conveyed to the Cape of Gond Hope and India, for the purpOse of completing the increased peace establishments of the ships employed on these stations.

It will be recol lected that some years ago, the late Recorder, Sir JOHN lost his watch in a curious manner.

THE CACIQUE OF POYAIS. The famous oaf discs! Cacique of Poyais, Sir Gregor Macgregor, who was arrested some tints ago in Paris on a charge of swindling, was on Thursday brought before the Court of Correctional Police. He was accused of obtaining considerable sums of money as loans. on promising his dupes the treasures of an El Dorado on the other side of the Atlantic. The following account of his trial appears in the Moils:— " PARIS. Aran. 7.—Sir G. Macgregor, calling himself an Indian Cacique and Sovereign of Poyals, in South America, was arrested several months ago, charged with various acts of swindling. He was accused of having made considerable loans, and taken large sums, premising to the dupes immense treasures in his country, which he represented as another Eldorado. fish was brought to trial yesterday with six other persons, said to be his accomplices. " The prisoner, a man of Scotch extraction, is a very handsome figure. He was elegantly dressed ; a large Scotch plaid thrown across his shoulders. He answered every question with much faci lity, though with a British accent. At his side was an English officer named Hippesley, whose external appearance made a strik ing centrist with that of Macgregt r. " According to the evidence, all the charge* were fixed upon Lehuby, one of the accused, who was absent, and who was sen tenced to two years imprisonment. Macgregor and four English men, Messrs. Irving, Hippesley, Mills, and Ginning, and two Frenchmen, Messrs. Denoste and Vallogne, were acquitted." The Moils of yesterday states that Macgregor and his two aides• de-camp have been detained on the request of the' Prectuvur dts Roi, and will be sent to this country. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

The Act relating to Juries, which bas recently been brought into operation, renders all lodgers liable to serve, who pay a rent or not less than . 20U alear. This enactment has greatly increased the number of effective Jurors in the City of London, as it includes merchants and brokers who rent warehouses or counting houses, although they may reside, as many do, at the west end of the town, or at their counting houses. This new regulation proved very unacceptable to the gentlemen about 'Change, who came to the Old Bailey Sessions on Thursday most unwillingly. The advantage, how ever, of thus bringing into the service of the public the time and abilities of intelligent and ready men of busi ness has been already apparent.

The bankrupt was cro<sexaMined at considerable length by Mr. ABRAHAIiS. on the part of the de fendant; and it came out on hi, cross-examination, that he and Truscott were in the habit of having nnmerous dealings, and of mutually obliging each other, by the temporary loans of money, and other accomoiodation ; and that in the September or October previnusto his bankruptcy, be got a friend of his (a .Mr. Schaffeld) to discount for him two bills of the def -nd tiler, one for 2001. and the other for 106/. 16s. However, pievious to the bills being discounted, Schofield was wnr.4, Nis to learn what provision there would be made for Abe pay ment of them. Truscott. the defendant, having' claim on the Board of Ordnance for 4461. 55., it was agreed upon at a subsequent meeting that this order was to be handed over to Lloyd, to hand to Sch-)field, to provide payment for the bills, and the balance watttf.le re turned to Truscott; but in consequente of i6i'subse quent bankruptcy of Lloyd, and the fact of his owing Schofield money, Schofield kept the balance of the order en the B card of Ordnance, and applied it to the credit of Lloyd's, the bankrupt's account,. at the same time giving Truscott a guarantee against any Claim of the assignees of Lloyd. It was endeavoured to beshown, on the part of the defendant, that the balance remaining out of the order of the Board of Ordnance, after' paying the two bills, went as a set-off against the balance of account now claimed by the assignees of the bankruptcy, but this was expressly contradicted by the bankrupt, who swore, that it was agreed upon by the arrange ment entered into, on getting the order from Truscott, that Schofield was, after paying the two bills (one for 2601., and theother for 106/.165.), to refund the balance to Truscott, the defendant ; and as a corroborative cir cumstance of it, he stated that they endeavoured to prevail on the Board of Ordnance to divide the order— ' that was, to accept two orders, one for the amount of the bills, and the other for the difference, which they refused. Mr. Schofield was produced, who being asked by the plaintiff's Counsel, whether he had given a guarantee to the defendant to pro tect him against any claim of the assignees of the bankrupt, ad- mitted that he signed some paper to that effect. Defendant's Counsel observed, that that admission settled the question, and he would not presume any longer. The StOONDA RIC said, that he would not trouble the Jury with any observations, except to say that he entirely apprOfed- of the choke which Mr. Schofield made of keeping the balance of the order, in preference of proving the amount of his debt on the bankrupt's estate.—(A laugh.)
