His Royal Highness is sworn not to desert his followers; he lost no time in reviewing the troops, and pointed to Cadiz as a reward of the brave. His words infused a new soul into thej:sosoms of the brave. There is but one desire in the army, to terminate the war.' Could we fight, victory is ours, but the position of Cadiz i, unassailable, marshes and water surround it on every side, we tee no enemy ; some wandering bands infest our flanks and rear; Nainchini in the mountains, and Fon& eda in theCondailo, hover around, cut 011 our stragglers, but fly the moment our troops approach, and only intercept our•communications.

The Court goes into morning for a fortnight, for her Serene Hi ii hness the Landgravine of Hesse. A Dutch Mail has arrived this forenoon with Papers to the 6th instant. The following is the only article which trey contain of any interest: ALGIERS, JUNE 1 2. The Government has returned to its despotic pro ceedings. A ship laden with various bales of goods ; and bound to this city, was obliged, in consequence of a storm, to be at the expense of 10,000 francs for iceairs at Marseilles and Nice. On its arrival the Captain would not unload till he was indeninified for the expenses, which he proved by proper docu ments. Those to whom the cargo was addressed, complained to the Dey, who ordered it to be deli vered to them, adding that it was not the custom at Algiers to make any allowance for average. All the European agents protested against this decision, which is contrary to the law of nations, but the Dey peisisted, and the Captain was compelled to give up the cargo without receiving any indemnity. The•hustilities between Spain and Algiers have had no result. The Dey's fleet is still in the Levant. The plague has not yet appeared here. Mr. HENRY WILLOCK, left town on Saturday for Rotterdam, on his return to his Mission at the Court Pessia. Me.

DUEADFUL ACCIDENTS.—One of the female per formers at Bartholomew Fair, was burnt to death, by her clothes taking fire; and a keeper of the wild beasts dreadfully lacerated by an infuriated tyger. Ftait.—An alarming fire broke out last night, be t‘‘ een eleven and twelve o'clock, at the house of Mr. Ackerman, Pastry Cook, N 0.74, Cannon-street, City, which totally destroyed the said house, and damaged the adjoining house:. MR. GRAHAM'S ACCOUNT OP HIS ASCENT. After commencing our ascent, we in a few mo ments lost sight of the assembled inultitude,St.Pauts appearing only as a dimi nut i ve Wilding, and the shipping in the River like children's toys. Our course lay over Waterloo and London bridges, Greenwich, and Blackheath. We had now mounted to a great height, and which we found by the barometer to be nearly a mile; and pa ss i ng t h roug h a c l ou d we f oun d it rather cold and damp. -The cloud apparently se parated, and did not seem inclined to re-unite ; while through the aperture we clearly s aw th e eart h, f ree from any misty appearance, which some have de= , cribed as being the case. We then changed our course to the southward, for the space of five mi nutes, and then returned to the same direction as the first.. Through the powerful rays of the sun the gas expanded, and we plainly heard it rushing through the safety-pipe, with a loud hissing noise ; and as it escaped it became as visible as the smoke from a chimney, assuming a yellowish brown appearance.— I I I then judged it advisable to pull the valve.line, and notwithstanding the valve thus became open, we still discovered we were ascending, by throwing out small bits of paper: In about halt a minute's time, it was plain that the balloon had began to descend, in con sequence of which we closed the valve. At this time we were at bur greatest height, which we ;_alculated by our barometer to be two miles and a quarter.— My friend, Mr. Harris, mbser ved he felt himself very warm, probably through some attraction Of the solar rays by the machine. And, as for my own part, I must say, that although at this great height, I felt no extra sense of cold, but we both felt extreme thirst. At this time also the cloudi surrounded us like so many silvered mountains, and above our heads the at mosphere was serene beyond all idea. We also dis covered that the balloon, car. and ourselves, were each reflected in a most beautiful manner, with all the different colours, on the surface of the clouds, but much diminished in size. The grandeur and loveliness of this spectacle it is impossible to describe. The valve being closed, and the solar rays power ful, we discovered we were floating on an equili brium—the paper which we threw out doing the same—only descending by its own gravity, which was very slowly. Soon, however, we began to de scend, and discovered the fields in appearance like a beautiful carpet, bordered in its various shapes with rich green velvet. Still keeping our easterly direc tion, we soon discovered the English Channel, with South End bearing to the nor th-east ; the Nore, Sheer ness, and the river Medway, to the east: observing the Medway and Rochester bridges, and Cole Wood beneath us, adjoining the immense park of Earl Darn ley. While over Woolwich Warren a cannon was fired, the flash and smoke we saw. Still descending, we threw out three bags of ballast, which caused us to skim over the wood, within a hundred yards of the extremity. We now threw out the grappling-iron, the car touching the tops of the trees, and the balloon then ascended, but probably through the grappling iron taking hold, caused us again to descend. Thus we were drawn between two trees, as to our great surprise the grappling-iron took no hold until' we had passed between them, the netting of the balloon car rying away part of the upper branches. Such was the velocity with which the machine moved, that the grappling-iron seemed, to pass through the hedge ss ithout any resistance. We now descended in a turnip field, skimming along the surface, the car touching the ground, and thus w e proceeded over three or tour acre:: of ground, until, by holding down the valve line, the gas had escaped sufficiently for us to get out, which we did without the least personal injury, being kindly assisted by Mr. Thomas Clayton, gamekeeper to the Earl of Darnley, and we were immediately surrounded by a number of his friends, who rendered their assistance in the most prompt-manner, by car rying the machine to the Coach and Horses, Stroud hill, near Rochester-bridge; which was about a mile and three-quarters from the place of our descent; from whence we proceeded to town, where we arrived safely, in a post-chaise, with the machine, the same night, after being in the air nearly 55 minutes. . . heaved out, it Was again loosed, and - at 20 minutes to seven o'clock sprung into the air, amidst the ac clamations of the surrounding multitude. Mr. Sadler ' waved his hat in answer to the shouts of the specta tors, and was still waving it, when the acclamations were suddenly suspended, as it was seen that the wind was carrying the aemnaut with a swing against the sloping roof of the Cloth-hall. He instantly re• signed his hat, and when the car, in its oblique as. scent,grazed with a concussion against the roof, threw his weight on one side so as to r fight it, two bags of ballast at the same time flying out from the shock.— ; All this was the work •of a moment, and no sooner had the car cleared every obstruction, than the in trepid aeronaut snatched up his hat, and waved it in token that he was uninjured, while the crowds below, relieved from their painful anxiety, gladly answered his salutation. The voyager then stood on the sides of the car, r.nd drank the health of his friends on the earth. The balloon immediately assumed an upright position, and ascended rapidly, but still more ra pidly sailed over the town, in the direction of due east. It held on its steady majestic but rapid flight, on the wings of the wind, till it became a mere speck, and was lost in the distance. All the time it was passing over the town, Mr. Sadler continued to wave his hat, but. in little more than twelve minutes he had va nished. The evening was beautifully clear, and the aeronaut felt no inconvenience whatever from the gale, the balloon being carried with exactly the same velocity as the wind, and thus sailing, as it had licen well expressed, in the bosom of the air." Mr. Sadler arrived in Leeds early on Ft iday morn ing, in a chaise and four. ASCENT OF MR. OREF.N AT LEEDS. This Gentleman, who has the honour of having first ascended with the cheap gas made from coal, and thus reducgd the heavy expense of an aerial voyage, ascended on Friday afternoon, at twenty Mi nutes to four, from the yard of the White Cloth hall, Leeis, with a magnificent balloon, thirty-seven feet in height. From the calmness of the day, he was enabled to fill the machine with ease, and the pro cess of inflation was completed within one hour and five minutes. Mr. Green had given notice of his in tention to ascend at three o'clock ; but the company continuing to flow in till half-past, it was that time when he sent off the last pilot balloon, and gave the signal of ascent. Being favoured with a calm and almost cloudless day, and having in consequence completely filled his balloon, the ascent was much more imposing than 'that of Mr. Sadler. It was, in deed, as magnificent as anything of this nature can be, though Mr. Green's car had few ornaments. The balloon soared, in a nearly perpendicular direction, steadily and majestically towards the heavens; the aeronaut, in the meanwhile, with perfect self-posses sion and cheerfulness, standing erect on the sides of his car, and waving his hand above his head, in an swer to the loud acclaim of the admiring multitude. The crowds who had assembled both far and near were immense—on buildings, Church-steeples, hill sides, and open spaces of ground to a great distance. The whole country seemed to have poure I out its dense population to witness this magnificent spectacle. After standing two or three minutes Mr. Green sat down, and waved his flag out of the balloon for some time.— He afterwards. let out a rope from-the car, which continued 'to hang suspended, far the purpose of pre venting the rotatory motion which the balloon has a tendency to assume. In a few minutes he shot a bag of ballast out of the car, and for twenty minutes afterwards discharged columns of sand at intervals. ° He rose a considerable height, and, from the ex traordinary clearness of the day, the balloon was ; distinctly seen with the naked eye for upwards of twenty-five minutes after the ascent. It was then in the direction of Pontefract, but rather more to the south-west, and certainly at a much greater distance than that place. After a fine voyage he descended in the neighbour hood of Exey, nine miles northward of Gainsbo rough, twelve front Doncaster, and about forty from Leeds. Here he found the lower current of the atmosphere blowing a hurricane. On descending to the earth, he threw out the grappling iron in a fal low field, where, after dragging for some distance, the car struck violently against a rail, and stunned Mr. Green with the shock; the grappling-iron then caught firmly hold of the rail, and from the velocity of the balloon, snapped the cable, and threw the aeronaut from a small height to the ground. Re was coni pletely stunned by the fall, and severely •bruised. The balloon, lightened of all its weight and ballast, though containing only a small quantity of gas, in stantly sprung aloft, and in 20 minutes vanished from the sight. From the vast elevation which it seemed to attain after the accident, and the great velocity with which it flew, all hope of securing by following it was lost. Mr. Green, though suffering considerble pain, im mediately set out, and arrived in Leeds at a quar ter to two o'clock this morning. He stles that his voyage was extremely delightful, and the elevation he attained upwards of two miles: the thermometer then stood at 28, being four degrees below the freez ing point, and the barometer at 18 inches and a half. Mr. Green offers a reward" of ten pounds to any one who.shall restore iris balloon, without its having sustained very material injury ; but it is thought that it has gone out to sea, in which case there is no hope of saving it except it should have reached the coast of Hollatid. ASCENT OF MR. SADLER AT LEEDS. Thursday morning, Mr. Sadler gave notice that he would ascend at five in the afternoon, and the pro cess of inflation was soon after commenced. The ar rangements for maintaining order both inside and outside the Cloth-hall gates were good, and all went on•well. The wind, however, was still too high for the easy inflation of the balloon, which was blown about so as materially to retard the entrance of the gas. At five o'clock the balloon was not half filled, and soon after, by the pressure of several persons against a rope attached to the valve, the spring of the valve was unfortunately strained, and the gas be an visibly to escape in the form of vapour. Mr. Sadler, who had during the whole afternoon been busily and anxiously engaged, now perceived that it would be impossible, from the state of the wind, to take up the canopy, the flags, or any of the car trappings. At half-past six, the balloon being little more than half filled, he resolved immediately to ascend. The car was attached to the net work of the balloon, bal last was taken in, and the whole machine was re moved into the middle of the yard. Even yet the Gentleman who was to accompany him entertained hopes that it would be possible for him to ascend, and he took his seat, opposite Mr. Sadler, in the bal loon, in high spirits. But when the cords were all extended to their greatest length, and the balloon waved high above their heads (the top being not less The following is the present distribution of the 40th Regi than eighty feet above the car), it was found not to meat : Lieutenant Low, with a detachment, sailed from Ports have sufficient buoyancy to carry both Gentlemen, mnuth.in the Albion, with convicts, in May last; Capt. Sisnor, ab t ‘ h i e la early afew par d t a of August;ie ta u i t ; together with such a quantity of ballast as prudence fLoinw , fr ool o w m ich c: iii l e th i th the Aa rls in regliirati to be taken.
