" GIBRALTAR, AUGUST te. " Consul Amatltr informs Lieut.-Colonel Ruther ford, Secretary tb the Governor, under date Cantu. geua the 18th August, that he had received on the preceding day au official communication from the Board of Health, stating, that there being six suspi cious cases in the hospital, out of the walls, Govern ment had established a temporary Custom-House, and the ether necessary Offices, at Escombreras, in order that in case of any distemper breaking out in the city, it may prove no impediment to trade. Se veral private letters, of .tbe same date, bring intelli sauce to the same effect." Most sincerely da we hope, that this great and glorious achievement may yet swell the triumphs of the great Captain who now Commands is the Penin sula, and who has given abundant pledges to the world, and to posterity, that this is his maxim--: u Nil actua Inman, dun% quid superesitt agendum!" " ALICANT, AUGUST It. eg Suchetls tfodps in this province apparently in tend to defend the positions which are from Xucar to this place, in the points of Ibi, Alcoi, and others; but we believe that the moment the new combined army shall march forward, the enemy will seek another theatre for their operations. AUGUST lg.—The enemy have abandoned all the places in this province to the Xucar. The com bined army which happily occupies this country will quickly commence important operations. " It is currently reported that Genetal Ballastetos las obtained important advantages over the enemy in Almeida." .

SWEARING THE Sminurra.—Yesterday, according to custom, on Michaelmas Eve, the new Sheriffs of London and Middlesex were sworn at Guildhall.— The LORD MAYOR and Civic Body appeared on the occasion in extraordinary splendour. The Sheriffs, Mr. J. BLADES, and Mr. M. HOY, arrived in their new carriages, which are remarkably splendid. The body of one ts blue, with ornaments and hammer cloth to suit ; the other, dark green, and proper ap pendages. The Companies of the Sheriffs formed a procession, displaying their flags and devices. A most excellent band of music also gave considerable alar to the general spectacle. Having proceeded to the hustings, the Sheriffs took their usual oaths, and after they had been invested with the chains of office, the procession was again formed. The Civic Body concluded the ceremony by a dinner. " CARTHAGENA, AUGUST 15. " The contagious yellow-lever, formerly suffered in this place, having again made its appearance, the most efficacious measures hare been taken to destroy it in its beginning : barracks have been constructed in the fields, and all those left the city who have not had it."

According to the latest accounts, nine transports had arrived at Corunna from Lisbon, with 100,000 suits of clothing, and stores of all kinds, for the Guerillas. There are about 3000 prisoners confined in the old Arsenal there. The deserters who enter into our service, are allowed to walk where they please, within a certain distance, but must attend a roll-call every evening.

Late last night notice Was sent to the proper OE ces, that Parliament would be dissolved this day, and it was then understood that the New Parliament would be summoned to meet the 24th day of No t ember. It was settled last night, that the Cabinet Council was to sit this day, at twelve, to issue the Proclama tion ; but this forenoon the hour was changed to three o'clock, so that we have been compelled to go to Press without waiting for its publication. Numerous Messengers and Expresses are in wait. ing, to set off with Writs at a moment's notice. The Candidates for the City of London are—the LORD MAYOR, Sir WILLIAM CURTIS, Sir JAMES SHAW, Aldermen COOMBE, ATKINS, and WOOD, and Mr. WA ITHM AN. Meeting of the Electors of Westminster was held last night at the Crown and Anclint. Tavern, when it was un.diirnously agreed to support the re. election of Sir FRANCIS Bunnell., free of all expence. With regard to Lord COCHRANE there was.some dif ference of opinion ; and a motion was made and car ried to invite Sir WALTER FAWKES to stand with Sir FRANCIS BURDETT. Lord COCHRANE, however, has expressed his determination to abide the event of a poll. Liverpool will be warmly contested by Messrs. CANNING, CREEVY,•9IICI BROUGHAM; the two latter have fair prospects of success, they are supported by the men who sent Roscoe up. Mr. CANNING by the opposite party. The Corporation have ;lot yet named their man. The present Dover Members, Messrs. C HARLES JENKINSON and JOHN JACKION, have gone down to offer again at the ensuing Election, and it is most likely they will both be returned without opposition, no new Candidates having offered. JAMES BROGDEN, Esq. and the Right Hon. JoHN M'MAHON, come in for Launceston, in Cornwall. WILLIAM NORTHEY, Esq. and JONATHAN RUNE, Esq. for Newport, in Cornwall. Mr. BENSON, a very respectable Liverpool merchant, it is said, will be Mr. SHERIDAN'S colleague for Staf ford. Mr. MONCKTON declines a contest. Major-General PORTER is on a .visit to has Consti tuents at Stockbridge. Strong opposition is expected at Ipswich against Mr. CRICKRTT and Mr. ROUND. Sir GODFREY WEasTsa certainly intends starting as :a Candidate for the representation of the County of Sussex at the ensuing General Election ; and as neither Mr. FULLER nor Mr. WYNDHAM means to' resign, a contest is inevitable. GEORGE THOMAS, Esq. one of the Representatives of the city of Chichester, has declared his intention of retiring from Parliament, in the event of a disso lution. The contest for Bristol is likely to be a very severs one. Mr. PROTHEDOE appears to be a favourite can didate, being a native, and his character universally respected ; but the friends of Sir SAMUEL. ROMILLV are still very sanguine, from the powerful subscrip tion they have obtained in London, and the number of voters they reckon on bringing down. HUNT again opposes M. Davis. It is now entirely settled that the Criattcruort of . the EXCHEQUER is to iepresentliarwich, in the room of Mr . HUI.KISSON. Mr. H. ADDINGTON will con tinue to Ire the other Representative. In consequence of the resignation of the Hon. EDWARD HAABORD, Member for Yarmouth, EDMUND KNowLas LAcON, Esq. banker, has started for that Borough. They expect a warm contest, as wren!! are expected to canvas the town next week. There is no opposition at Plymouth to Sir C. M. POLE and Colonel BLOOMFIELD. A most active canvass is commenced South ampton. The Candidates are no fewer than five. et-once HENRY ROSE, Esq. Jos. JACKSON, Esq. AR. TRUE ATHERLY, Esq. WSI. CHEUBERLAYEZ, Esq. and J. C. MORTHINGTON, Esq. Sir JOHN HIPPESLEY, Sir Flux AGAR, and a Cap tain WYATT, are at won/ at Sudbury. Mr. PYTCUES gxs down on Thursday, who is supposed to have the Estimate. All Chester is in a bustle. General GROSVENOR has not yet arrived to canvass, but is hourly expected. All the other Candidates are there. Sir RICHARD BROOKS starts In opposition to Mr. JOHN EGERTON * and is confident of his rcturn, although there will be hard fighting. Mr. Wm. Eaxaros comes in at a hand canter for the county. The contest will be be tween Mr. DAVIES DayaNpotrr and Mr. THOMAS CHOLMONSZIAT.

Last week, detachments of ate Royal Scottsil6tho 44th, 45th, 66th, and 74th regiments ] embarked at Portsmouth, on b?ard the FnEYA S W MlLLailitNe l for , Portugal. The 21st, or Royal Scots Fusileeks., n i t the command of M Jur CoottLaw, which roil Sta. tioned in Aberdeen for some time, have reciiiPepi their route for Fort St. George, and march f;rtun thence on the Ist of Octoba. They ate to be refaced by the 78th Regimant, now in garrison at that Pict. Yesterday se'nnight, 53 men gnd 102 horses, of dist Royal Horse Artillery, and Royal Artillery Drivers, were embarked from the Dockyard at Portsniouth, for service in Portttgal. We are sorry to Lear of another misfortune of the cavalry, and that with the I Ith Light Drigooos, again. An Officer and 20 men of them were conk pletely surprised by, the, French on the Douro, the Captain killed and the troopers marched off prisoners by a party of Maamotax's army. We hope that at lengh, attention will be paid to something besides the pelisses, shape of the helmet and tassels or the lab-e -mu/mg of our cavalry : the French are quite a contrast to them. They are most plainly dressed, and on such wretched horses, that to see them one would think one 8f our Dragoons mounted, would carry away before them any three of the French. With such excellent horses and appointment', and such materials for troopers, in the name of wonder why do we not wed out more good cavalry Officers, to command ore cavalry, if we have them ? Sir ROWLAND HILL assembled a Court of Inquiry by order of the Marquis of WaLLINGTON, and we hear that the proceedings were neat home. 'LLIGBNCL ICI PAL INT. Dublin • - 1 0. Guernsey • .
