All classes, in short, seem to be looking to the approaching event with symptonis of great excitation and interest; and Cie Royal visit to Edinburgh will, we have no doubt, form an era memorahle in the history of the city. We understand that, in consequence of the uncer-, tainty of the place of landing, the idea of a triumphal arch, through which his MAJESTY was to have been received into. the Royalty, has been abandoned. The Throne arrived at Lehi; ob Friday, and was ronveed to the Palace on Saturday. It is to be rlaced in the Drawing-room. S.iturday, a considerable quantity of baggage be lenging to his MAJESTY was 'added at Leith, and was fot warded to Dalkeith House, under an escort of mi litary ; it consisted of plate, china, bed and table linen. A considerable quantity of poultry also was landed for the use of the Royal table. The Peeresses and Ladies of rank will prob4.ly occupy a stand of their own, between the corner of the High Church and the Police Office: the LORD PROVOST has not the disposal of the places in front of the Exchange, ahlrough such a report has been in circulation. The Secretary of the Senates Academicus has issued notice to the students attending the University, di recting them to enter their names with the College Librarian, from H horn they are to receive tickets to join the other public bodies in the procession of his MAJESTY from the PAlace to the Castle, &c. A correspondent observes, that in the arrange ments proposed for lining the streets during his bf-a attsTy's procession from the Palace TO the Castle, no r:ention is made of the Burgesses who are not incor ro; aced, who •form a most respectable part of the communiq, and suggests that some part of the line of p:ocession should be reserved for them. We have r,o doubt that this suggestion will obtain from the Committee due consideration. Bald, day, fourteen c•fhis MAJESTY'S carriage horses arrive::: rat Dalkeith House stables.

In ajdition to the corps already mentioned, Peebles-shire Yeomanry will also be present. WILLIAM MARSHALL, present Deann of the Gal.', smiths of Edli:burgli, has been appointed Goldsmith to his MAJESTY for Scotland. The loyalty of the Highlanders to their country and KING requires no comment. The M'Grigors in huhiting the mountainous district of Rannoch, on hearing of the intended visit of their SOVEREIGN to their native country, immedia‘y assembled at the east end of Loch Rannoch, and were drilled by Lieu tenant M‘GRIGOR, at Inverhadden, the better to qua lify them for appearance before their Lime, should he honour Azhole with his presence.

Sunday, Lord DUNGLASS, attached to our Em bassy at St. Petersburgh, left town for Russia. The same day, Mr. WARD, attached to our Embassy at :Madrid, left town for Spain. Yesterday, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, which was attended by the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, Earl of LIVERPOOL. Earl of HARROWBY, Earl of WESTMORELAND, tke CHAN CELLOR of the EXCMEQVER, Duke of WEL,LINGTON, Lord IVIARYBOEOUGH, Mr. RostNum, &c. The Ca binet continued in deliberation till a quarter before four o'clock. -- - The nest accounts from Constantinople and Smyrna are expected with much anxiety, it being feared that the Turks may take dreadful vengeance on the Chris. tians in those cities. According to several concurring accounts, Michele, ilozaris, and Normann, united together, continued their operations since the 18th June ; and Chourschid l'acha retreated towards Larissa, after having suf fered great losses. It is, indeed, reported that he had Lastaihed a great defeat near Larissa, and escaped w.th only a few troops; but this last statement needs cunfirmation. Accounts that may be depended upon, from Bi toglia, of the Ist July, say that Omar Brione, whom Chourschid left at Joannina, has likewise been de feated by the Greeks and Suliots. Larissa, it is said, still holds out; but the Greek troops are advancing on all sides towards it. The defeat of the Turkish fleet Scio has produced an extraordinary sensation at tialonichi and Serer. ANCONA, JULY Is. Among other vessels from the Archipelago ar rived here, is a Greek ship, the Captain of which caw the Turkish fleet on fire. His account of the affair agrees with the others received before. The Captain Bey is said also to have log his Tie. Netelino is now secure from danger. THE ARMY.

Retract of a letter from on board the Gaa,epus, off the coast of Cuba, June 20 From Cayo Largo we proceeded to Salt Key, and found the pirates had left there two days; we re mained three days at Aquadilla, thence for Havannah ; In four days we arrived at Sugar Key, and, having been joined by the SHAM, the boats were dispatched under the command of Capt. Pamir, with 90 men, well armed. Ha' ag received information of another of the pirates' stations, under a chief named Raphae lini, we bore away for this station; next day we fell in with Captain PERILY, of the Sii.tax, and two schooners he had cap tured, the crews of which had escaped into the wools ; a party of men were landed in pursuit, and divided into separate parties. At sun-act they returned to the boats, except one marine. At day-light a search was made in the woods for the lost man: some of the men heard a report of a musket, hastened to the spot, and found the marine with a Spaniard over him and in the act of stabbing him ; our men gave a shout, and presented their muskets, upon which he dropped his weapon, fell upon his knees, and begged for mercy, promising to pilot us to the pirates' ren dezvous. To-morrow we are off for Sagua le Grande, where Rapha-lini's squadron are lying, and their prize-money is said to amount to 180,000 dollars."

The Government of the United States is paying the strictest attention to everything which relates' ' either directly or indirectly to their navy. By the last Papers we learn, that a frigate of the largest class, to be called the Susquehannah, is neatly ready to be launched at Philadelphia. The keel of a ship that stay carry 140 glans, it is said, is also about to be laid down there. The former is covered with a roof, similar to the mode adopted of late years in this country, as will be the latter. " Neither of them (it is added) will Le speedily launched, unless the re lations of oar country should be materially changed." From the following extract it would aka appear, that they are equally alert to the preservation of their future resources for the supply of materials for an extensive navy, as if they feared their own immense forests proving insufficient, they may resort to their newly-acquired territory of Florida : EXTRACT OT A LATE ACT OF CONORESS. " That the President of the United States be, and is hereby authorised to employ so much of the land and naval force of the United States as may be necessary effectually to prevent the Lining, cutting down, or other destruction of the timber of the I:::ited States in Florida; and also to prevent the transportation or carrying away any such timber as may be already fallen or cut down, and to take such other and further measures as may be deemed advisable for the preservation of the timber of the Coated States in Florida." The United States brig Spark has been dispatched to St. John's River to carry the above into execution. A very marked impression was produced yesterday in the City by intelligence of the sudden death of Mr. JOHN biota:, the East India Director, and partner in the house, late limas, ELLIcs, and Co. of Mark lane. Mr. 'Nous was, we believe, in his 73d year. Few individuals have maintained a higher estimation in commercial affairs, or will cause, in the imme diate circle of their acquaintance, more sincere regret. We forbear to notice any rumour connected with this unfortunate event. REMARKABLE COINCIDENCE.—In the year 16C4, on the sth of December, a boat on the Nlenai, cross ing that strait over which a bridge is now building, with 81 passengers, was upset, and only one pas-! senger, named Hugh Williams, was saved. On the same day, in the year 1785, was upset another boat, containing about 60 passengers, and every person perished, with the exception of one, whose name also was Hugh Williams; and on the sth of August, 1820, a third boat met the same disaster, but the pas sengers of this were no more than twenty-five ; and singular to relate, the whole perished with the excep tion of one, whose name was Hugh Williams !

The Drapean Blanc gives the following details or. the, acas at the Theatre de la Porte St. Martin : " If it is true that reciprocity should be ate basis of every good treaty of commerce between nations, we have great reason to complain of the inequality of our theatrical exchanges with Eng land. When we send actors to London, they are always first- rate in their several lines; and as soon as the English resolve to send us over a whole troop, as a sort of wholesale repayment for , our retail exportations, instead of their best specimens from Co- I vent-Garden or Drury-Lane, we receive country players, :who would scarcely satisfy a town of the fourth rank. What opinion would they have us form of the dramatic art in their country from such a sample? What would they themselves think of the merit of our actors, if they were to receive by the packet-boat one of those strolling companies who make passing visits to Pon- Wise or Montargis? We ought, however, to state here, that the first Comedians of England would not have experienced a more favourable re ception than the unlucky Performers who were assailed by the most furious storm which ever raged within the walls of a Theatre. There was a party formed, we might almost say 3 plot settled, to hiss and boot them down, good or bad, solely because they were English! Must we not deplore this intole rance, which covers with the mask of patriotism the violation of the kind laws of hospitality? We should therefore risk little in offering to bet, that amongst the most ardent persecutors of those Comedians from the other side of the Channel, there would he found many of those apostles of tolerance, of those enemies of prejudiees, who are themselves the slaves of preju dices the most balefuL " A great part of the spectators, and particularly of the Pit, did not even attempt to dissemble their hostile disposition, for a long salute of hisses and hooting! assailed the first Actors who appeared upon the Stage, before they had uttered a word. " Let them hiss them, if they are bad—let them hiss them, if they are good, since that is a kind of barbarous right which the spectator buys at his entrance, and a chance which every Actor incurs when he enters on his profession ; but at least let them be heard, if it be only not to have the appearance of in sulting them merely because they are English.' " Soch was the opinion of all the respectable persons whom curiosity had attracted to the Theatre. It was nearly in these terms that I expressed mine in the interval between the first and second acts, addressing myself to the persons in the same box with me. I beg pardon of my readers for speaking of a fact re lating to myself personally, but I am in some measure compelled to do so, both by the publicity which this fact has necessarily obtained, and by the mention made of my name by some of the Journals, in giving an account of this tumultuous representation.. " I added, that our performers returned from London loaded with guineas ; that Mademoiselle Noblet bad very recently had a benefit which produced 5000 guineas. A Gentleman in the gal lery, under my box, abruptly addressing me, said,' None but an Englishman would speak thus.' Not only,' I replied, am I not an Englishman, but I was not long ago regretting that I was not sufficiently acquainted with the English language to follow the delivery of the actors ; I am now consoled--' As for me,' continued the Gentleman, down with the English ! I have reason for my enmity. I eras insulted, and almost assassinated, in London, because I was recognised as a Frenchman.' If you did receive insults and bad treatment,' I rejoined, as a Frenchman, it could only have been from the lowest of the po pulace ; this is an additional reason for not wishing to find amongst ourselves a similar canaille.' " These last words, pronounced in rather an elevated tone, no doubt reached the ears of some persons in the pit, whose at tention had already been drawn towards us by the animated ve nires of the individual with whom I had been talking. Not having heard the sentence which that word terminated, they probably did me the injustice to think that I was making an im mediate application of it. Thus only can I explain the vocife rations which burst forth from the corner of the pit and from the orchestra, in the course of which my name was often heard. I answered only by silence and an undisturbed attitude. The applauses of the respectable people :hewed that they approved of my conduct. I would willingly have given the explanation I now give, if I had had an opportunity, and that it is correct I can prove by the testimony 01 all who surrounded me. " But I have said too much of myself. Let us return to the unfortunate English. They resisted with imperturbable courage the hisses, cries, and insults ; and desirous to bring up the time lost by these noisy interruptions, left out the whole of the fourth act in order to arrive more quickly at the bed scene. We should be sorry indeed to repeat the coarse pleasantries, the filthy apt), trophes which this scene provoked. If we speak of them here, it is at once to justify from these scandals a youth, who from the very professions to which they are destined, cannot be ignorant of polished letters nor of the duties of justice and decency. " Mr. Beams, who played Othello, succeeded in a moment of jealous fury in obtaining some applause. This mark of favour was the signal for a fight in the pit; the efforts of the combatants upset the first rows of spectators, and many determined to scale the orchestra in order to cake refuge on the stage, which was im mediately occupied by gens-d'armes. " A calm seemed to be established between the two pieces ; but as soon as the curtain rose for the Afterpiece, a storm even more violent than the first shook the Ilouse. It was, notwith standing, an entertainment translated almost literally from the French (Les Rendezvous Bourgeois, by M. Hoffman). Instead of amusing themselves with the awkward air of two actresses, and the strange ambling pace which they substituted for the light and lively walk of the young mad-caps they represented, the Ca bailers overwhelmed with insults women and strangers, whose weakness should have been their protection. They appeared furious even against the one who appeared most to merit encou ragement-Miss Gaskill,who played the part of the waiting-maid. The piquant gaiety of her countenance, the extravagant vivacity of her acting, the very oddity of her manners, and her singing (for she sung two couplets, repeatedly interrupted by the pit), should all have conciliated for her interest and indulgence. " The truth must be told in spite of the repugnance and die. gust which so scandalous a fact must excite. Coarseness, barba rity, and cowardice were carried so far, that there were thrown at her and her companions, apples, bowls of tobacco pipes, crusts of bread, &c. Miss Gaskill was struck over the eye by a penny piece with considerable force; she fainted, and the curtain fell, 44 It is said, that in a few days a Vaudeville is to be performed at the Theatre de is Porte St. martin, in which there arc two charming couplets on French politeness and urbanity. It will nolloubt be repeated by way of an expiation for this evening. " A. MARTAINVILLE." P. S. It was hoped that the second representation of the English Company would be less stormy than the first ; and the Management, as a measure of calculation and of prudence, had doubled the prices of admission, In the expectatiun of collecting a leas tumultuous assembly, and promising larger receipts. The hope vanished long before the drawing up of the curtain. Could any one be ignorant that there is in Paris a class of people always ready to bid high for scandal and disorder? " As soon as the scene was displayed, shouts, hooting., and !timings were heard on every side; but the fury of the cabal was not confined to these. hostilities; eggs, potatoes, and even Bios one, and overpowered with the injury or with alarm; the cur tain fell, and the Manager of the Thea're came forward to ask whether it was the will of the Public that th. representation should go on. No, no! Damn wile Me English ! were the only cries that could be heard, and the Manager retired, andoinicing that a French entertainment would be prepared. " This glorious victory had elevated the courage of the victo rious cohorts. They endeavoured to fill up the long interval before another representation, and were Porto gate enough to discover in a dark box (it was mine) four or five peaceable per sans, amongst whom there was doe who has been always distin guished by the hatred of the seditious, the revolutionist!, and the jacobins. Vociferation, and menaces were immediately di rected against that box, where the most perfect silence reigned. Stones, with which the assailants were provided, soon began to be thrown into the box, and one of the persons in it was struck by a flint-atone, but was only slightly i-jured. " As these base outrages did not make those who were the ob jects of it change their position, a cry was raised of a (amid a ensuing ! A last discharge of the noble artillery of these wzr riors forced the persons threatened to raise the grating of their box in order to protect their lives ; but one of them advancing jusque mr la picric, said in a firm voice, pointing to the nearest groupe, you are robbers and assassins a." • The substance of this narrative is, that M. Afartainville rats the greatest risk of his life. From this circumstance, we may judge to what fiction the outrageous persons belong. Their ex cesses at length obliged the Authorities to clear the Hom e . Th e madmen, aft& breaking some of the benches, rushed to all the outlets to escape. Several groups having been formed on the llaulevarsls, the gendarmerie dispersed them, and all the heroes took to flight.—Note ethe Editor. HAYMARKET THEATRE.—Last night, Miss PATott repeated the character of Susanna, in The .►;arringe of Figaro, and each successive appearance more than confirms the high expectations which her debut hail so powerfully excited. ENGLISH OPERA-HOUSE.—Gordon, the Gipsy, was repeated last night, considerably improved by some judicious curtailments, and the introduction of a comic medley, sung by WILKINSON, as a parody on " Ole ! where, and Oh ! where," We're a' norld.'n," and one or two other Scottish airs, which was unani mously encored, by a crowded whence.

He also announced, that the Committee had caused this distressing case to be laid before his MAJESTY, and he had not the least doubt of having the happiness, in a day or two, to recor d another instance of the kind feeling that is known to exist in that quarter towards every one who needs it.

TUE LONG SMITHFIELD TROTTER. A singular match took place yesterday on the Croydon road. A Mr. Melsham had purchased what was termed a long lazy boned trotter, and the price asked was seven sovereigns. Five and I'm at you, said a flash caper, too fly within himself to give away a second chance while a knaclav was at band. Melsham saw nothing but blood and bone about the horse, and he gave a quid in earnest for the prod, which had hat all teeth coking sever. years ago. A good paddock, cleansing with showery grass, and a feed of corn, brought the horse round, and symptoms were evident there was nothing amiss within. This was, per haps, the first chance the horse ever had of sheaving quality, as to quantity that was much disputed. - The horse started with two boys, weighing 17 stone, upon his back, to trot 14 miles in an hour, and he did it cleverly two minutes within the tinis. The horse was bought in March last, and 100 gs. wer e bid f oes him after this match. BOXING. CABEACZ (the Bristol ratan), and PARISI? (denominated the Gingerbread Man).—The completion of the stakes between the above boxers, of fifty guineas (twenty-five aside), was made good at the Castle Tavern, Holborn (Mr. Belcher'3) on Tuesday even ing. The battle takes place on Tuesday, the 211th inst. within twenty miles of Loudon. Betting is seven to for on the Bris tol Hero. la:sit &Lt.—A writer in a Morning Paper sub scribes himself " A contributor to, because of belief in, Irish distress." The Irish must certainly be much obliged to him for contributing to their distress, and admire his candour in avowing it: but the fact is, the writer's bad Irish means, in plain English, that he is a contributor to the relief of Irish distress, be. cause he believes in its elistence. ~~ I 1 C:1 ~ 1
