The department of the General Post-office for the censorship of all foreign newspapers, and other periodicals brought, into the Empire, will likewise proceed next year in a much more rigorous system of censorship than hitherto; thus it is now posi tively affirmed, that for the year 1827, many English, French, and German newspapers, and other periodicals, will be totally prohibited in Russia. The list of them which will be communicated by the Post-office to the public s at the close of the year, must very soon acquaint us with the extent of the prohibition.

" The native papers leave no doubt that the Punjab is again the sathe of military operations, and that MINIM Surat has resumed his ;impose of attempting to extend his dominions at the expense of the Afghans. The distracted state of that count,/ is highly favour able to his views. The rival Kings, Mmtuoms and Suusa, are equally fugitives ; the former, with hie son Lamas, being in considerable force at Herat, and the latter living privately within the British territory, or at least till lately. The country is divided between the sous of FAWN ILYA; who are always at variance with each other, and who have no hereditary nor personal claim to the allegiance of the Afghan tribes. At the same time, religious differences, and a spirit of independence, are likely to animate the Afghans against the Sikhs, and may supply the place of a legitimate and consolidated Government. Possibly Bnara's recent departure from Ludhiana. if correctly reported, may have been she work of Smarr nowt, whose pulley it obviously is to offer to the Afghans a King whom they have obeyed, sad to whom they were as much attached as their capricious and lawless character permitted them to be to any Baler. For reinstating him in part of his possessions, the Easters portion, or Peshawer, and its depen. dencies,pay be the price; and they will be mere easily purchased, we aboard think, in this manner, than by hostile collision With the whole body of the Afghans." Mr. Alderman WA MUM* N gave notice, last sight, in sise House of Commons, that on Tuesday nest he should move for a Committee of Enquiry into the conduct of Members of that House in the Arisne Mining Company. He said he had contemplated postponement for the accommodation of others, but henceforward be would follow his own judgment. Mr. Hung presented a Petition from Manchester fur an Enquiry into the Cern Laws, agreed to at a peaceable and properly con ducted klecting. He contended that the subject should be dis cussed without delay, u upwards of 450 Members had now taken the oaths. The Petitioners prayed that the expenditure might be reduced as low as possible, t►at the Church and the Crown Lands might be sold for the benefit of the public ) and t►at there might be a Parliamentary Reform. Sir k Permeate* supported the Petition, and said that he pro tested against the postponement of the question. The Petition was then received and ordered to be printed.

He was wounded in the arm (which has since been taken out of the socket) in the action of the 30th of July. Report speaks highly of his general character." By the Mexican Paper El sot of the 28th September, we find that the Committee of Finance of the Senate had reported on the project of the new Tariff The chief previsions recom mended are a duty of 30 per Cent. on all foreign goods, at the va- I luation of the existing Tariff (fifteen at the port of entry, five on removal, and ten at the interior Custom-houses). Beery vessel must have a manifest in triplicateof the cargo and number of tons. Goods imported in national er nationalised vessels shall pay six per Cent. less duty. SUDDEN DISAPPZARANCI OP A CORPSR.—Yesterday morning a considerable sensation prevailed in Chelsea College, in consequence of the body of an inn pension er, named Alexander Cuthbert, having been stolen. It appeared that when the deceased died, the body was removed into the bone-house, behind the Infirmary, in the College, preparatory to interment; but yesterday, when his friends came to follow his remains to the grave, on opening the lid of the coffin, the corpse was gone, and all that remained was the shroud and cap.— Inquiries were immediately set on foot, when the door of the bone house was discovered to have been forcibly entered. No suspicion attaches to any one. In the Sheriffs' Court yesterday, an action was brought by a Mr. George Jay, a professor of music, residing at 32, Wit wick-street, Golden against a Mr. T homas Ship herd, a cheesemonger, residing in Berwlck . street, Sr. James's, for falsely imprisoning th e plaintiff. The damages were laid at 9001. The facts of the case are these :—On the 10th of September, the plaintiff and a Gentleman named Lambert, were returning home, and were assaulted is Leicester-square, by some women of the town, whom they gave in charge to a watchman, and who were instantly conveyed to the St. James's watch-house. The plaintiff also went to the watch-house to charge the females, but when he arrived there, the defendant, who was constable of the night, refused to receive the charge against the women • and when Mr. Jay and Mr. Lambert remonstrated with him , he ordered the former to be locked up for assaulting him, and the latter for obstructing him in the discharge of his duty. He also refused to receive bail, and in the morning conveyed them before the !Uses. trates at Blaribmough-street, leading theist gang the streets like . . . felons, and denying Them the Indulgence of a hackney coach. The Jury returned a •erdict—Damages Ten Pounds. An action which had been brought against Sbipberd, by Mr. Lambert, fur false imprisonment, was next tried, and la that case the Jury also gave Ten Pounds damages. HIS MAJESTY'S VISIT TO DRURY•LAE PIRATRR. The Koso having appointed last night to honour Drury-Lane Theatre with his pre s ence, for the first time this season, Mr. Palm th 4 Lessee of the Theatre, had the Royal Box newly fatted up, as well as the room at the back of it, together with the lobbi, and all the avenues The whole was illuminated with numerous Grecian lamps. The sides of the King's room were covered with light blue, fluted; in the centre were large looking-glasses. About six o'clock a Guard of Honour marched into Russell-street. Sir RICHARD BUMS, the Chief MA• gistrate of the Police, accompanied by Mr. HALLS, one of the Magistrates of Bow -street, were in attendance. The arrangements, under the superintendance of Towns end and Sayer, were iimilar those at Covent-Garden Theatre, excepting that Russell-street was not cleared till half-past six o'clock. Mr. GARDNER, the Groom of the King's Great Chamber, was in attendance in hi, Court Dress. A patty of the Yeomen of the Guard lined the entrance. Mr. PRICE, Mr. WALLACK, Mr. WINNTON ( who were in Court Dresses), and Mr. SPRING, were in attendance to receive the Kiso, to conduct his, MaJesry to the Royal Box. The Royal Processhit left St. James's Palace at a quarter before sesen o'clock, consi ting of six carriages. with a numerous patty of Life Guards, and the same attend - ants who accompanied the Krso to Covent Gar den; Theatre the preceding evening. — The Royal ca valcade passed though Ling Acre, and turned down Drury Line into Rus,ell-street, in which the Royal entrance is situate. Notwithstanding the continued falling of rain, numbers of persons were waiting in the street to be gia.ifted with a s'ght of the KING. Many spectators sere also at the windows of a number of houses, who loudly cheered Isis MAJESTY. The KING arrived at the Theatie exactly at 7 o'clock, which was announced by the sm. id of trumpets and the pre,enting of arms by the Foot Guard. The Duchess of KENT art ived at the Royal Entrance a few minutes before the KING. accompanied by the Pa incess FIODOR, attended by the Baroness De SPAEDTII and Captain Cosmos , . Her Royal Highness and the Princess,with the same attendants, honoured Covent-gar den Theatre with their presence the preceding evening. Of his MAJESTY'S visit to this Theatre last night there is little to be said, without repeating the desctiptien which appeared in our Paper of yesterday of the Royal visit to Covent-garden. Nast a seat remained.unoccupied in either boxes, pit, or galleries, immediately after the opening of the doors; and the expressions of loyalty were at least as frequent and enthusiastic, and they were acknowledged with equal dignity and cordiality. As before, GOD Save the King was sung four times, and Rule Britannia once, the audience joining vigorously in the chorus ; and in justice to the whole House, but especially to the Gentlemen in the Gallery, seve ral of whom took off their coats in older to give their lungs full play, we must say that we have rarely heard a chorus delivered with so much unison and effect. The solo parts of UOD Save the King, and Rule Britannia, were sung by BRAHMA, Mrs. Guam, and Miss GRADDON. The performance consisted of the Opera of The Devil's Bridge, and the Farce of Love, taw, and Physic. His MAJESTY paid great attention throughout, and appeared to be much pleased with the exertions of the players. BRAVAIS was twice moral in the course of the Opera, with the evident approbation of the Kuser, and his MAJESTY laughed heartily at the scenes in the Farce between LISTON and Harms; as Lubin Log, and Flexible. His MAJEarT appeared in excellent health: He was dressed es he has usually been on such occasions, in a uniform of dark blue, richly laced. He remained until 44 Gob save the King," had been sung, after the Farce, and then took his leave, by bowing to the different parts of the house, amidst univerial and enthusiastic acclama tions. Notwithstanding the excessive pressure of the crowd without, the eagerness of the 'people assembled to tht into the Theatre, and the almost suffocating state of e interior, there was no interruption of order and good humour. The bursting open of a box, on the second tier, was, indeed, the only act of rebellion against the authority of the officers and box , keepers which fell under our obit/xenon. His Mammy tooled extremely well, walked with a firm step, and was la most excellent "kits. Both in his progress to the Theatre, and his departure from it, be was warmly cheered by the PeoPla. MADRAS, Juror 25.--The ship Juliana, Captain Inas, from Portsmouth, arrived in the Roads on Sunday (July 23), bringing the following pusengers :—Mrs. Ogilvie, Lieutenant Colonel Ogilvie, Colonel Haslewood and son, Mrs. Gaitskill, Lieu tenants Galukill, Deacon, Lynch, and Farwell; and Messrs. Miller and Tsylor, Cadets, for Madras. Mrs. Downes, Mr. Downes, Assistant Surgeon; Mr. Stacy, Messrs. Ogilvie, Grant, Makesou, and Fullerton, Cadets, for Calcutta. Dispatches, dated the 24th of August, have been re ceived at the Colonial Department, from Colonel Pur don, at Cape Coast Castle. It was supposed that the King of the Ashantees had died of the wounds he had, received in the battle which took place 7th August. OroßTo, Nov. 9.—We continue in no small alarm, from its being confidently reported that the Marquis Chaves, accompanied by the refugees and some Spanish guerillas, intends passing the frontier to-morrow. A Variety of rumours ale ufbat. We cannot feel secure aril a British force comes into the country. The House of Commons meet today, but only for the purpose of reading the Oats Indemnity Bill a third time, passing it, and to be prepared to forward it to the Lords, on Monday ; so that the adjournment of Parliament for the Christmas recess may take place as soon as possible. A shocking accident happened on last Monday even ing, at Startston, near Harleston, Norfolk. Four Gen tlemen, one of whom was the Clergyman of the parish, suspecting that a preserve near by, would be visited by some poachers that evening, agreed to go out armed in pursuit of them. Three went together, and one by him self. It appears that they agreed to meet at a certain place. The single Gentleman, who is quite a youth, meeting the other three unexpectedly within about ten or twelve yards, and conceiving them to be poachers, was so much terrified that he immediately fired and woanded the Clergyman in the side, who instantly fell, and his two companions having no hesitation that the person whohad filed was a poacher, fired in return, and so much shattered one of his hands that it is feared it must undergo amputation. The youth ran home and said he had shot a poacher. Surgeons were immediately sent for by both parties. The keverend Gentleman lies in a dangerous state.—Saffolk Chronicle. .

IMPORTANT TO MARINERS. le Sea—ln consequence of reading in a Morning Paper au im portant notice relative to Lighthouses in the Bay of Away, I as. same the liberty of adding the following remarks " The Acquillon Towers (described in the Petit'Neptune as Lighthouses) still serve as the leading mark into the Loire, the two towers (not lighted) being brought into one line, and bearing, by compass. N.R. R. " The Lighthouse on the Four(of which the situation has not been given) stands at Si miles true west from Croisie Point, on the northernmost dry rocks of the Four Bank. It is a round tower of stone, and, as already mentioned, exhibits a revolving light. " The situation of the Tower on the La &ache has not bees given; and. as this shoal is 3e miles long, from Les Trois Pietro; on the N. W. to the Turk Rock on the S. IL it is requisite to men tion that the beacon on it is a round tower of stone, 30 or 40 feet in height, and erected on the Turk Rock. " The route of the vessels bound to the Loire, or port of Nantes, has commonly been to the northward of Le Four, and thence south-east towards Croisie Point; so as to avoid intervening dangers; but the channel to the river may be gained with more facility, by entering between Le Four and La Banche, the south eastern part of theArst will be avoided, by keeping the Church of Croide well °peel* the west of the steeple of Guerrande, and the N. W. end of La Bancbe will be cleared by keeping the steeple of Guerrande a sail's breadth to the N.W. of the tower of Batt.— Either of these marks may be kept on until the New Lighthouse, on the Tower Bank bears by compass N. W. W. and this line of bearing. or a course S.R. S. will lead directly to the Bar of the Loire Inlet; the towers of Acquillon appear, in one which is the leading mark over the Bar as abovesnentinne.d. " Another. important alteration in the light-houses of the Bay eat Biscay, has not, I believe; been regularly communicated to the British Public, though interesting to all vessels bound to the Gironde, or port of Bordeaux. The Rdein Tower. on the N. W. end of the Isle of Re, has for some time past had a light rising and failing, which has the appearance of a revoking light. It may be i sm five or six leagues; more to the southward, it can be seen at the distance of two or three leagues only. 61 It is generally, I believe, known, that the present light of Car ' deman, at the entrance of the Gironde, is revolving, and of great brilliancy, so as to be seen at more thee six leagues and a half off.

Nov. 30.—Friday night and most or Saturday it blew one of the severest gales in the Frith that has been felt here for a long time. Several vessels in the Roads were driven front their anchorage, two of them made the harbour in a mo 4 perilous condition. A boat was nearly lost pawing the Black Rocks. A poor fisherman bad hie boat, that not many weeks ago cost him 401. dashed to pieces. A number of the boats belonging to Newhaven were stove and otherwise damaged; and the boats of some of the vessels in the Roads, during the gale on Saturday, were washed ftom their sterns, and floated ashore between Leith and Portobello. —But the most lamentable of that day's disasters that has reached u, is the loss of a vessel off Aberlady Bay, supposed to be an Eng. fish brig.
