Now to the moors Or Highland bill and heather hies, right glad, The jolly fowler on ; whilst o'er the sea, Bounding in rivalry, gay navies ride, Not in rude war, but sport; and the brown sod The thin-shod hoof of noble-mettled steeds Presses with lightning speed. 'Tis a brave time We'll learn discourses of it - ANON. It has been munificently and compassionately ordained by Hue Who bade the Spring to rise, the Sommer bloom, Autumn bring fatness, Wimer frost and gloom, that every season should produce something to gratify or profit man; many things which ought to make him contented, and happy, and grateful. Leaving every other class of our fellow creatures out of the question, we, who are sportsmen, ought at all events to be cheerful, and because not a month comes round,but it brings for us gratifying employment. It WAS but an hour ago, comparatively speaking, that we were compelled to leek our fowling pieces in their test, and now, in ir very few days, most of us will be taking them down, and with our steady pointers and staunch setters, plod ding our way to the moors and highlands, and other places where grouse are fond of feeding; inasmuch as the legal destruction of that exquisite bird, dates its commencement from the 12th of the present niot.th. As yet the " busy hum of preparation" is alone heard, but, upon that day, the mountains of old Scotia is ill rever berate to the pealings of the deadly tube, and yield hundreds of their winged -occupants to the skill, patience, and perseverance of tho trudging southern. FRENCH PAPERS. FROM TAE CASETTE DR FRANC*, DATED JULY 31. • PARIS, Jinx 30. The Diario di Roma of the 18th of July declares that there is no foundation whatever for the assertion of some Journals, that his Koliness had appointed Cardinal Giustiniani legate a latere in Spanish America. M. William Wilton, Secietaey to his Britannic Ma jesty's Consul-General at Algiers, passed through Per pignan on the 19th instant, on his way to Paris and London. It is supposed that he is the bearer of dis•• patches to kis Government, relative to the late events. He had left Algiers only ten days before. The port was very strictly blockaded by the French fl-et. . It letter from Bucharest of the 11th 01 - July, lays,.. aAn English courier coming from Constantinople passed through this city the day before yesterday. A .report has since been spread, that, notwithstanding the eiScial assurances previously given, M. de Ribeaupierre is making every preparation for his departure."—Augs burg Gazette. The affair of the Nuncio, in Spain, with re , pect to the American Bishopricks, has taken a more favourable turn, and, reflection calming the first dissatisfaction, the Government has shewn an inclination to pursue a dif• ferent course. There is reason to believe that M. de Fournas, Captain•Genetal of Biscay, exceeded -his instructions, the first intention of the Ministry being to induce M. Tiberi to defer his entrance into Madrid, but not to make him turn back. Several Journals have announced, therefore, that M. de Fournas has received orders to come to an understanding with the Nuncio, and that that Prelate may proceed to Madrid, but that this is not to affect the subject of the difference. We much wish for a conciliation so desirable. It is affirmed that the Councils of Castile and the Indies have given their opinion on the institution of Bishops in America, and that they consider this measure as neces• sary for the good of religion, and even as a means of promoting the interest of the King of Spain. What has impressed the Couocilr is, the reading of the dispatches of the Pope, especially a letter which calls to mind, that e►er since 1822 the Holy See has cnastantly endeavoured to induce the Cabinet of Madrid to make arrangements which might save religion from total overthrow in those countries. It is added that a Commission of Bishops, Heads of orders, and Magistrates, has been formed.— When this Commission has drawn up its report, it will be sent to the Council of State, which will finally de cide. The wisdom and piety of the King authorize the hope that a subject of joy and triumph will not be given to the enemies of religion, by a quarrel which cannot but have a fatal influence on the public mind in Spain. alighted on the roof of 1 A L ott,, 111 t. - I. c , • , ‘‘ hich had under its wing a note from London with the course of Exchange, and which seems to have been intended for Amsterdam.

From an extremely long Of f icial account of the epi demic which raged in' 1826, the following particulars serve to 'hew its violence:—'though this province is one of the most healthy iu the kingdom, and the num ber of births usually exceeds consider , bly that of deaths (;n 1825 the excess of births was 1921). in 1826 the births were 5126, and the deaths 7563. This difference is still more dei'lorable in some places; thus, in Gro ningen, in 1825, the births were 1103—the de .ths 860 —excess of births 243; but in 1826, the number of deaths was 2886--of births 992-excess of deaths 1894. In the fire. last months especially the mortality in the city was dreadful. 4n three months of 1823 the deaths wete only 420 ;in the same pernds 44'1826 2369. In September, 1826. 667—in September, 1825. 88. Yet this number of deaths (if we deduct those which were owing to ipher cause , ) may be said to bear a small pro portion to that at the sick ; for it may be safely affirmed, that in Groningen and some other places, nearly the whole 'population was seized with the disorder, in a greater or less-degree.

IPoring the month of August, young wild ducks will become strong on the wing, and, in places where they are approachable, will afford amusement with the fowling piece. Nuw, too, opportunities will be afforded for training and 'cur iskig pointers. For those who visit the grouse mountains, or re. side in their vicinity, the moors are very eligible for the purpose, while in the enclosed parts of the country, the animals can be vev well exercised on the grass lands, particularly towards the evening, when partridges are generally to be found in the after grass, where the) ran a good deal, and thus afford young dogs the best possible opportunity of acquiring a correct knowledge of their business, and of becoming in a short time steady. The military arrangements of the day suffered a little by the mutiny of one of the regiments, who on this anniversary of the national independence to-k occasion to celebrate their own particular independence also, re• fused to obey their Officers, and went home. The whole regiment, we learn, have been placed under arrest. The remainder of the troops, however, made an AM,- lent appearance. The shower which came on about three o'clock,: was attended with its advantages as well as its inconveniences. The' pedestrians of the street who were not provide t d with umbrellas suffered considerably in their habill ',ments, particularly the fair sex; and the side walks 'hewed a long and melancholy procession of wet pan taloons, drabbed gowns, arid discontented face.. The sovereign people who came to feast their eyes with ;be sumptuous viands prep.ued for the stomachs of the worshipful corporation and their guests, were somewhat . drenched for their curiosity ; but to the corporation themselves the elements seemed lavish of their propitious influences. The rain tempered the immoderate heat of the day. so that by five o'clock this t nd body ware enabled to enjoy their turtle w,up and champaigne with great comfort, in a cool and refreshing atninsiirlere. The dinner, which was prepared by Mr. Peckwell, was pronounced by an excellent judge of these matters to be well prepared and well served up. There were a great number of aquatic excursions; and during the rowing matches the Worth River, oppo site Castle Garden, was literally covered with steam boats, and small craft of every description. The rowing match between the boats Dispatch, Swan, and Wash ington, for 150 dollars, took place at lour o'clock. The former won the race. upon the Turf, the spirited amusement to which it gives birth, still continues, and will be followed for some months longer.

The Protestants of Nerac had Inng been in possession of their Church, when, in March, 1825, the Council of the Prefecture of the Lot and Garonne decided that the •hospital at Nerae had a prior tight to this Church. The Consistory of Nerac applied to the Minister of ,the In terior, and then appealed to .the Council of State. It has succeeded, and the following Ut dinance has been issued in this affair, which was much discussed in the Journals at the time, and several times mentioned in the Chamber of Deputies.

List week this highly respectable national association , held their summer meeting on the bland of Lichkeith, for the pur pose of competing in the various Highland games and gymnastic exercises which it specially patronises. The Club assembled at the Chain Pier, Newhaven, early in the day, and about eleven o'clock, the Lady of the Lake steamer sailed for the island, with an im am:se number of passengers, male and female, including the baud of the 92d regiment, which struck up " The Garb of Old . Gaul," as the vessel stood out into the Roads, and continued to play national airs alternately with the military pipers, and pipers belonging to the Club, during the voyage. The party debarked on the north side of the island. Captain Deans, of his Majesty ' s sloop a°, was in at tendance with his beats, a nd materially assisted in carrying the Ladies ashore. The Club then proceeded to a level piece of ground, where teti competitors commenced shooting at a target, sring five shots each. The prize was gained by William Bowie Campbell, Eaq. W.S. who put four shots out of the five into the target. Ma jor Macdonald, the second best competitor, put in three shots, one of which was almost directly through the bull's eye. Here, front the nature of the ground, and the immense display of female charms the scene was uncommonly brilliant. The next game was putting the stone, a ball of twenty-two pounds. The successful competitor, Lieutenant Macdonald, 99.1 regiment, threw it z 6 feet. To this exercise succeeded throwing the sledge hammer, wh;ch was keenly contested. The prize was awarded to Mr. Alex. Hamilton, son of Mr. Hamilton of the Customs, who threw it 41 feet. Captain Deans, FL N. threw it 39 feet and a half. Ten other prizes which were to be competed for, were delayed for want of time.' Between each of these games, and even daring their continuance, groups of spectators commenced dancing on the turf, to the music of the band and pipes. About three o'clock another steamer ar rived, having on board the Lard Provost, his Lady, Baron Warts dor( (of Saxony), Major Wallace, of the let Dragoon Guards, Stc. Their arrival was hailed with loud acclamations by the lively crowd on the island. Towards five o'clock, after the pipers and dancers had pretty well exercised their abilities in their respective vocations, two hundred and seventy-6.e Ladies and Gentlemen sat down to dinner, in a spacious tent, the Lord Provost in the Chair. The dinner was provided by Mr. Ambrose, and was of a very sump tuous description; the wines were equally creditable to that justly celebrated restaurateur. After dinner, when a number of toasts, suggested by the circumstances of the meeting and the eons • patsy present, had been disposed of, the medals awarded to the successful competitors in the games, were presented to them by Mrs. Trotter. Dancing on the turf t►en re -commenced with more spirit than ever, and continued till about dusk, when the two steamers arrived to carry the Club and their friends back to New haven, where the Mhole were telanded without accident. Among the company present, in addition to those enumerated in the Lord Provost's party, were—Moray of Abercairney, Stewart of Bonskied, Stewart of Weren't', Stewart of Dalguise, Oliphant of Gas, Colonel M'Bean, Lieutenant Colonel William son, tltcl Regiment, Majors M•Donald and bklaryte, Captain bl•lntosh, and several Officers of the 92d, &c. In addition to the members of the Club and their friends, a vast number of uninvited visitors from both sides of the Fritb arrived at the Island during the day, and at one time its popu lation must have exceeded .500 souls. Mr. Bonnyman, the super.. intendent of the Light House, had received previous instructions from the proper authorities to give every facility to the object of the Clu and Ms attentions were unremitting. The whole effect of the day's amusement was highly attractive, and the Island will, most prob tidy, witness a similar scene of festivity neat year. —Lluri.,r f Utsc, ter. The title under which the municipal authority claim ed the entire possession of the church, had given great uneasiness to the Protestant community. An expre s sion in the decree of the year 12, which appeared doubtful, was relied upon; and though the words seemed lieble to various interpretations, the spirit of the law, however, could not be the subject of any doubt. The ordinance now issued has the immense advantage for the Protes tants, of clearly fixing'the meaning of the terms of the decree of the year 12, and of making other Protestant communities completely easy respecting the possession of the churches. MADRID, Sot? it. The Journal of Me Two Worlds says not a - word of the affairs of America. It is generally believed that the Government is resolved on an expedition, which, joined to the army of Cuba, which is 18,000 (a part with the expedition) will be more than suffici:nt to overturn all those ephemeral republics. FRONTIERS OF SPAIN, .11,11. y 20. We learn from CAstel Ruiz that the V.scount de Montealvgie has received orders from his Catholic Ma jesty to leave that town and go to Miranda' del Ebro. The new position of this illustrious Portuguese Chief, with respect to the depots of the Royal Portuguese army, causes a political importance to be given to this measure. The Baron de Portella and Brigadier-General Car reti are among the distinguished personages who have lately emigrated from Portugal to Spain. In general, the emigration has.not ceased, whatever the liberal Journals of France and England may say, which proves that the yoke is insupportable to all those who profess general sentiments in Portuizal. DUTCH PAPERS. • FRANKFORT, Jinx 27. Letters from the frontiers of Poland say that the Grand Doke Constantine was to visit, this year, some of the German watering-places; but that this journey is deferred for the present, as the actual state of things will not allow the Pi ince to leave the kingdom of Po land, at least till the Supreme Court of Justice has passed sentence in the affair of the Polish Conspiracy, which is now pending.

JULY 4,.1827.—The " Friends of the Administration of the General and State Governinnts" celebrated the 51st anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, with that gratitude, harmony, and hilarity for whicti the occasion calls. At 12 o'clock they met in the State House, where the Declaration of independence was read by Samuel Rush, Esq. and an oration delivered by T. 1. Wharton. E,q. The thtnks of the meeting were re turned to both the Gentlemen for the very handsome manner in which they severally dis Charged the duties which had been imposed upon them, and requesting from Mr. Wharton a copy, for publication, of his eery excellent oration. A little after two o'clock the company, more than `2OO, exclusive of guests, sat down to dinner in the Grand Saloon of the Masonic Hall. The room was tastefully decorated with military flags, portraiti, The orchestra was occupied by the music attached to the marine corps. The tAble was covered with a great profusion of the best meats, fowls, fish, vegetable, pastry, and such other good things as the season affords, and a liberal spirit and good taste pointed out. The liquors were good, the Champaigne, Madeiia, and Claret, were excellent, and we had great pleasure in remarking that the company were fully sensible of the value and fla vour of what was provided. The dinner was procured and prepared by Mr. Lambert Keating, to whom the Committle of Arrangement and the company owe obli gations for the gratifying manner in which all theist wants were supplied. Samuel Wetherill, Esq. acted as presiding officer; the Hon. Jo s eph Barnes, Alderman John Geyer, and Col. C. C. Biddle, officiated as Vice Presidents. NEW ORLEANS, Joie 7. The Colombian armed schooner privateer Bolivar was yesterday condemned in the Court of Admiralty, for vio. lation of the laws of the United States, in firing on an American vessel with intent to plunder. In the case of the Antoinette, a vessel captured by the Bolivar, 2.500 dollars were decreed to the pilots who captured her, as salvage, of which sum 1,000 dollars were adjudged as the portion of Mr. Matthews, one of the pilots. We understand that the Court observed, that had Captain Bateman, of the Antoinette, put in a claim for salvage, he would have been allowed a lzrger amount than any other person. -
