verr one of the spectatori seethed to regard the ordet • to withdraw, as a piece of real unpoliteness i with which he had a right to be offended. it cannot be denied that every thing wlticti terms a theatrical scene is injurious to the dignity of t!tc Chamber. In Eng land a single constable with his staff disperses a• crowd, and preserves order among a great concourse of people : he 'Speaks, and all are silent ; he corn-- mands, and they retire. This morning all the door keepers of the House idly conwromised their autho rity ; a great number of persons refused to obey, and of those who did withdraw, most returned and re sumed their places as soln as the officer had retired. 44 This circumstance is in itself of little importance; but it serves to illustrate national dispositions and habits, and affords matter tor vet y serious reflection. We possess a free Government—such a Government as all enlightened nations must desire and obtain,', sooner or later ; but a free Government cannot he Maintained but by submission to the laws. Under the empire of despotic power, force is always at hand to compel obedience ; but under the reign of attem pered liberty, obedience ought most frequently to be voluntary ; and a people that know not how to obey of its own accord, proves that it requires to be forced into compliance. 46 Let us learn, then, to respect the laws, even the tnbst minute ; that the look alone of legitimate au . thotity should forthwith cause all resistance to dis appear; let us cease endeavouring to elude, by ob stinacy or address, orders which we have no right to contest; then may we loudly demand privileges with which we may be indulged without fear. I demand of the Assembly which conducted itself with so much Wisdom, whether that public who this morning chew ed themselves so unreflecting, so disrespectful, so in. tractable, could be exposed without danger to the in fluence of the first imprudent or dangerous writing? 6 4 I am, &c."

The Princess CHARLOTTE is confidently said to have taken a very affectionate leave of the Prince of Ottattor on his quitting this country, and to have shed tears at their unavoidable separation. Hence it may be inferred that all negotiation between the parties is not broken off, but that a proper undt.r. standing still exists. erb.

Saturday the Duke of WELLINGTON after reviewing and dining with his regiment, the Oxford Blues, had a narrow escape from a serious accident. In driving through Brentford about nine o'clock the same even ing the finch-pin came out of the fore wheel of his chaise, by which the carriage was nearly upset. His Grace was proceeding to town in great haste to be present at the wedding of a relative, and expressed much anxiety to get forward, but it unfortunately happened that another conveyance was not to be pro cur6l. In consequence of this he was detained till the damage was repaired, when it was with great difficulty that he could prevail on the populace to relNquish their desire of drawing him to town. The Duke of WELLINGTON dined with the Earl of Liveuroot., at his seat at Coombe Wood, on Sunday. His Grace, on his departure, only took with him one Aid-dc-Camp, three servants, and one plain carriage. The Gazette of last night presents the official ac count of the action in Upper Canada, of which we publi,hed a brief summary yesterday.

Our regular troops amounted to about 1,501►, and more than a third were killed, wounded, or taken prisoners.—The chief loss was sustained by the 100th regiment in a front attack. The battle :vas fought on the sth of July; and Sir GEORGE PIIkVOST writes on the 13th from Montreal, that lie did not understand that the enemy had subsequently attempted to advance. Vert Erie surrendered to the Americans by capitulation, before the battle: but no mention is made of the gar rison, which we should, therefore, apprehend, was mace prisoners.. • IVAPAL ArriLLIGENCL FALMOUTH, AUGUST 1.

CONCLUSrmr of the PARK rssrinliES. Yesterda'y morning it was &sem , red that the nrdef :rum the Secretary of State's Office Ind not been duly , nfnrced throughritit the Patlcs ; this svAs productive of another order -from L rd SiomouTri, and at an early hour Sir NATIIA I P.I. CONANT, the Chief Magi!. trate of Bow-street Pollee-flake, our dried by a k* Officers, proceeded th:ough the Park., and requested that all keepers of taverns, booths, &c. would imme. 'diately cause a removal of their booths, tents, mate queer, &c. This order, although made on former occasions, was received with much disapprub!tion. particularly by those who had laid in a great stock of provisions under an impression that they would be permitted to sell until Friday, the 12th instant. About two o'clock it was considered indispensih'e that the Magistrates ! again remind them of the Royl% order ; accordingly Mr. fli.:estect., the Deputy Ran. ger of the Park, Sir NATHANIEL C'—oleast, and Mt. SKETCHLEY, attended by a detachment of Police Orfs• cers, proceeded to Hyde Park, and after Much per. suasion, all the people were prevailed upon to din' perse in the greatest order and decorum. All the booths have likewise been temoted tenet St. James's Park.

On the late rent-day at Stanford-hall, Leicester. shire, the present worthy proprietor, CHARLICS . VBRIC 'DASIIWOOD, Esq. requested his tenants might be in formed, that although he had given a regular notice of an advance in their respective rents, in considera tion of the change that had taken place in polit;cal affairs, he purposed blotting out the additional figure. Such an act of liberality is gratefully appreciated by every tenant, and is justly entitled to publicity and imitation. • We understand that RICHARD DANSRY, of Clater Park, Esq. and Dr. MATTHEWS, of Belmont, both in the county cf Hereford, have, in conseqnence of the IoW prices of grain of all descriptions, reduced. the rents of their estates one-third.

HAYMARKET THEATRE.-Last night thetoll3Rd7 of IVild Gott WAS performed.- and certainly We have seldom seen it better represented in all its parts. Miss GREVILLE, by her excellent repi-esent,tion Set Lady Amaranth, sinews her pertect•conception of characters of this description : her reception was highly flatter. ing. Mr. Tennv, of whose 'abilities we have already very highly spoken in other characters, sustained the part of Sir George Thunder, with his aimed excellence. Mr. Jones, as Rover, was extremely happy. • SPARRING.—The Fives Court was yesteld iy we'll attended, for the benefit of - D. Mendoza. • On this occasion the Pugilists mustered strong, and amongst them were, Belcher, itichneud, Oiiver, Haffner, &c. A scientific display took place between Richmond and Eales ; Mendoza set to with Firby ;. Filcher shewed off with Iky Pig, whO was completely hit through the railingg oldie stage, and caught by the spectators. Mendoza challenged to light Painter tor 50 guineas, publickly. • Painter is in Lancashire, hut will be up in a few days, when a match will . be made.

The of fenders have been taken into custody, and, in default of bail, have been sent to the H,aise of Correction, at Lewes, to be tried for the offence at the next Session. A gentleman lately arrived from Worcestershire was yesterday robbed of his pocket-book, containing al, in notes. In St. Paul's Church-yard, be found his pocket had been cut, and the property WAS one ; and recollecting he had been much pressed. against by some men while passing the end of Fleet-market, had no doubt the theft was there committed. Monday evening, one of the light-fingered gentry WAS caught picking the pocket of the landlord of the Wellington.booth, n Jubilee Fair. A (col• tcco-box. in which were ten ail notes, was found in his poss;:s. sion, which was immediately claimed by a sailor, as having been stolen from him about an hour before.— This so exasperated the mob, that they determined to obtain summary justice, and, puffing him into a sack, dragged him to the Serpentine, into which they threw him, and then hauled him backwards and forwards, until he was almost exhausted. In this discipline, some of the crowd s - Vere so active, that they waded up to their middle in the water. The offender, on being draws on shore, was some time before he could crawl off. The same evening, a women attempted to bathe in the river, in the presence of some hundred. of men, and had actually_ stripped to do so , w h in several females rushed inrand took her away by main force. This scandalous action was attributed to the all. powerful effects of gin ! CORN MARIO:. i*, MARK-LANS, AUGUST 10.
