A Morning Paper states, on what it calls “ antho rity of the first respectability, that a Treaty has been a. , :ried into effect, under the powerful mediation of binding Great Britain and the other Mari time Powers to join in concert to effect the submis all.a and pac'fication of the Spanish Colosiiis; aid ti.tt a new political regime, quite different from the ttAiner, is to be established, particularly as far as re. ar.is foreign trade, to which full liberty is to be given, ruder certain modifications." CI the gross impolicy of any such interference we lave already more than once expressed our opiniori.- and as to the fait of a Treaty having Veen actually entered into for the purpose, we need go no farther than to the sequel of this report itself for its refuta.

The Duchess Dowager D'OETTINGEN-WALLEE:. STEIN, died at Wailersteitt on the 9,h inst. of a fit of apoplexy. Her Highness the Archduchess Foams, Duchess of Modena, has been delivered of a Princess. 'I he Warhiszten City ana.tie announces that Mr. PINCKNEY is to supply the place of Mr. ADAMS at the Court of . St. James's; and that Mr. Rum, the present Attorney-General,is to succeed Mr.PINCICNEY at the Court of, St. Petersboirgh. It is understood to be positively settled, that the. young Prince of Portugal is to come to Europe with his Princers iMatediately after the marriage ; and the Royal Couple are to take up their residence and hold a Court at Li,bon while the King his father continues in the Brazils. Mr. Titoestou's mission to the Bra zils is expressly to compliment the Prince and Prin• cess on their marriage, and to accompany them to Europe. A private Letter, dated Gibraltar, 7th August, says—ft A ship of war strived here this morning from off Algiers, confirms the news of the plague having broken out in that city. The deaths are about 17 or 18 daily. There is no danger here, as not even a boat is admitted into the Bay frctn any of the Bar. bary States." We are extremely concerned to state that the fever to which we alluded in a former publication, has now reached an alarming height in Sligo. The average lumber of deaths daily, cannot be less than eight.— We have heard of some instances in which families, consisting of six or eight persons, have been all of at the same time ; and the distemper is so vioknt as to carry off a victim from almost every house in the quarter suffering under its influence. The rival Theatres are determined to try what effect the 4 , concord of sweet sounds" will have on the public in the ensuing season. 'At Drury.lane an Opera, founded on Lord Benou's Poem of The Coe. *air, from the pen of Mr. DIMOND, the music, we understand, by Mr. Bunoe, will be produced at an early petiod. The hero is to be personated by Mr. KCAL At Covent-garden au Opera, written by Mr. T. Dump:, the music by Mr. BAAIIAM and Mr. Bedroll', will be produced soon after the commence eitnt of the season. The Persian Hunter:, or Ths Rose of Corgi:tan, at the English Opera-House, rises in the public estirnation as ■n elegantly dramatised love poem. It attracted last night a very lull audience; among whom, as might be expected, there was a large proportion of the lair sex. The sudden indisposition of Mrs. W. S. CstarraaLaY occasioned indeed a great drawback on the performance, but her part (Zefinda), was played by Miss Love, at a very short notice, in a style that exhibited powers of pathetic declamation not often food in so young an awls. The musical entertain .ment of The Adopted Child, went off with great alai; and the new Farce of Fire and Water increases in fa sonr by repetition. The Bath and Bristol Theatres, so long united ender the same proprietors, Messrs. DIAMOND and Co. have at length become distinct concerns. For merly the company, which officiated at each Theatre :-r a certain number cf nights in the week, travelled between the two cities in a large caravan, built on !lie model of tho►e vehicles in which wild beasts are conveyed from fair to fair !

The Se!cct Committee of the House of Commons, aPvinted to inquire into the State of the Roads from Hr :yhead to London, and into the Regulations for 'he Conveyance of the Mail between London and D';olia, have made no less than five successive Re prns upon the subject, which have been printed.

The match between 'graham Mlles, the Hereford. shire nian, and Granger, called the Bath Tininan s came off on Wednesday morning early, in a twenty feet ring, at Eireley Heath, on the borders of Oaks and H411;1. The men were backed for thirty giiiimaS a side, and a purse of ten guineas was added. Moss seconded Granger, and Tomkins, the back-sword player, seconded Willet, *An weighed 12st. 81b. his antagonist, who had a superiority in tactics, was a pound under 12st.

Pe r tussonou, JULY 30.—The ground of a village, distant twenty-two versts from Abu, has suuk sud. denly to the depth of many fathoms, and twelve peasants' houses have been buried in a manner that no trace rtemlins ol their former position. A similar eve.it happened at the same place in the years 17.55 •nd 1788. Among o , hLr unknown causes of this phenomenon, it is attributed to the situation of the village upon a swampy soil, and to a river which fluWs beside it. It is not stated whether any lives were lost The command of the: ROYAL Geostos yacht by the Hon.

EDWARD 13BRRY was Captain to Lord NEWIN. nn board the VANGUARD, at the etip,agern-nt of the Nile, and fought the ship after Lord NeLsox was wounded : he afterwards commanded the AGA.

He is the pro. per Captain of the yacht. and has held the appoint ment tor nearly two years. This gallant Officer has, for his eminent services, the honour of wearing a gold :medal fur each of .the three general actions before mentioned, was also promoted to the rank of a baro net, and, on the late division of the Orders of the Bath, was made a Knight Commander. The improvements of the Dock-yard at Sheerness are rapidly proceeding. An excavation of some hun. dred feet in length, and proportionally deep. is nearly accomplished for the fotmation of a new dock,. Nearly one thousand convicss- are,employed.on the works, which, it is supposed, will occupy several tears in completing. A fire broke out at Gnerlitz, in Prussia, on the 90th ult. which reduced the prison to ashes, and upwards of 20 houses. • During the night of the 4th instant, as W. HUNTER, of Hartlepool, and his b•ratmah, G. Pouwnen, were fishing for herrings, a little to the northward of Staiths, on the Yorkshire coast, they were alarmed by the cries of " Help help . ! to save our lives." The night was extremely dark, and the persons in distress at tome distances HUNTER, however, deter• mined to use his exertions to Lille them, and emit% iron) his lines; rowed in the direction which their cries "pointed out to him, and he happily succeeded in rescuing two men and a boy from a watery 'rave. A large.drauehi of herrings had ianik their bort, and her crew were floc ing in the sea in an exhaus.ed when HUNTER reached them. They were taken into the coble of their deliverer, and restored to their friends at Smiths, from whom Husrrait teceived the most grateful adtnowleclgunents,.ac well as from the poor men themselves. The nets which Husaren cut from. when the sacred impulse directed him to the relief of his felloet.creatutes, were worth upwards of £BO, and chances were much against his ever finding them again ; but they have been recovered. The Earl and Countess of Scerox and family met with some difficulties in their first attempt to reach Calais from Dover. They had bmberked seven horses. Scarcely had they left the latter harbour, before a squall of cortritry , wind made their vessel heel so much, that the horses werethrown down, and in their plunges to regain their Looting, did each other considerable harm. Their packet then made for Ramsgate, • where his Lordship viaited till four other horses arrived from town to complete his equi- page. A second attempt was more successful, and the family, consisting of the Earl' and Countess, their two eldest daughters and their third son, are now doub:less in Park, where they were to meet their eldest son, Lord hlor.vNeux. The festivities of Donnybrook Fair, in the vicinity of Dublin, commenced at an early hour on avatneiry Morning. Even before son-rise, symptoms of its au . - prO/Cil manifested themselves in the emigration of tables, chairs; tent poles, carpets, baskets, and whiskey bottles, in that direction. About the usual hour of breakfast, several stragglers were observed, attempting to sir :r their steps to that oatlet, who had already so far anticipated the delights of the day, that their feet were almost incapable to obey the dictates of their inclinations. About mid-day, the appearance of the Horse Police announced that the joyous pro. ceedings were in full activity. Thence, till ling after night-fall, the sports continued. The families resi dent in Leeson-street and its vicinity, were regaled during all that time with the rattling of jingles, the scourging of. jaded hacks, the songs of frolicksome drunkards, the galloping of the Police Constables, t!:e squalls of children, and now and then diversified by a regular engagement between two half-drunk corn. batants. Thus began, and thus ended the Sunday, that commenced the festivities of Donnybrook Fair. G.
