The Government had ordered the arrest and banish vent, to the Canary Islands, of twelve ini f lividuals who are not men of much political celebrity. A sudden depression 7=an one per cent. took place in the price of French stock at Paris on Tuesday, which has given rise to various reports relative to the situation of the French army in Spain, of a very un favourable nature. The greater part of those in circu lation yesterday were equally destitute of truth and pro bability. That which appears best entitled to attention, though it cannot be given as certain, is an account of the rupture of the negotiations before Cadiz, which reached Paris on Tuesday afternoon, and which in luced some very large sales of stock by eminent capitalists there. It is said, indeed, that the Governor of Cadiz never entertained any serious disposition to negotiate, but that he had sent the flag of truce to the French head-quarters, and allowed the Doke de Guiche an interview with the King, solely with the view of e gaining time, partly to render more complete the de i fences of the city, but principally that he might remove i' to a distant part of Cadiz a large magazine of gun powder, which, since the French had taken the TIOC4 dero, was exposed to the shot fired from its batteries: .., such was the account received in Paris on Tuesday LORD COCHRANE. PLYMOUTH, SEPTEMBER 13.—Extract of a letter re ceived in this town from an officer in the Navy, dated Bahia, August 2.—" In our way from Rio here we fell in with Lord CocirRANE'S squadron, the Don Pe& o, 8Q suns, Maria de Gloria frigate, and ten smaller vessels, principally manned with British seamen. Upon ow anchoring here, we found the Portuguese had embarked to a man ; and etpected, from their force and number (the whole consisting of 90 sail, including merchant ships, and about five thousand troops) that they might bid defiance to Lord COCHRANE'S squadron, but in which we were deceived, as his Lordship had already taken and sent in thirty vessels and about 1200 troops, and was determined to follow the remainder to the mouth of the Tagus, s'aould he not previously capture the line-of-battle ship and frigates. On the squadron leaving Bahia, the Imperial flag was immediately hoisted, under hearty cheers ; all the guns being dis abled, prevented their firing a salute—this, however, took place two days after ; and our own respectable British force, viz. CREOLE, DORIS, BRITON, and TAR.. TAR frigates, also saluted the new flai, which gave the greatest satisfaction to the Brazilians. —PiiintouthJour. NA iIriNCE.

When to my lip the cup is pressed, The glowing fervour fills my breast ; My heart revives, the Muse is gay, The Nine inspire the Minstrel's lay! Yes! when I to the goblet See, My cares are o'er, my thoughts are free ; Life becomes a brighter treasure, Solicitude resigns to pleasure ! Yes! when I would the goblet ply, The God of Mirth stands laughing by, Rejoicing in the merry mood Of one who thinks the grape so good ! Yes! when I pour the vincjuice cup, Or drink the foaming goblet up, Around my brow the wreath I twine, The brightest hour of life Is mine ! While the goblet I am sipping, My locks with sweetest perfume dripping, Affection's dearest joys I prove, And Venus tunes my soul to love ! When I drown me in the bowl, Vision'd pleasures o'er me roll; Rapture bids her heav'n arise, And sorrow spreads his wing and flies ! When to my lips the cup I press, Ob then I feel life's power to bless ; And since 'twill not avert my doom, bear its trophies to the tomb !

Thursday se'nnight a mariner of the name of M'Credie, while crossing the sands between Creetown and Wigtown, was overtaken by the tide and unfortunately drowned. In consequence of some late improvements by drain ing, the small rivulet which forms the origin of the river Clyde, was lately turned into the river Avon, of which it at present forms a part. The Avon joins the Annan about two miles below Moffat. The Clyde may now, therefore, be said to issue from the Avon, forming itself anew by branching off from this water about a mile below where the drain changed its current.

Corney and Co: On a former examination he stated, that in the begin ning of 1822, he was in embarrassed Circumstances, when he compounded with his creditors, by giving the acceptance of P a man named Leonard. since a prisoner 1 in the King's Bench ; he then swore he had not nego dated any of Leonard's bills since his composition. The insolvent, in his examination yesterday morning, recollected having negotiated two of Leonard's bills to his opposing creditors; he had paid no others away. Mr. Heaw produced two other bills, which, after a deal of prevarication, he admitted he had passed to Messrs. Robinson and Co. nine months after the cons. position. Mr. Heath examined the insolvent at great length, as to his negotiating these bills, but he so pre varicated that the Court several times cautioned him as to the course Ifewas pursuing. The insolvent was asked if he did not know he was to swear to his schedule? he said he did not. Ile had not seen his schedule, nor had it been read to him. Mr. HEATH said, that as the insolvent had n .t read his schedule, the case must be adjourned; the Learned Counsel hoped that where an insolvent had perjured himself so frequently as the p.esent had done, the op posing cieditors would be allowed their expenses in coming to this Court to oppose. The CIIIEIt COMIIISSIONER said the insolvent must be remanded generally, and to give seven days notice of his coming up again ; an insolvent intending to swear to a schedule he had never read, was guilty" of a scan dalous offence, and deserved to be sent back to pi:on. The insolvent was again remanded. TEIlt CANAL IN ST.JAMES'S PAM —Yesterday Illorn• ing the steam-engine, erected on the north bank of the Canal, began to operate very efficaciously in forcing the water, through a temporary conductor, into the brick drain. The water is thus carried off in a considerable stream, which will soon complete the drainage of what had become a very offensive and unhealthy nuisance. Mr. SADLER made two attempts, on Friday and Saturday last, to ascend with his magnificent balloon from Sheffield, but on both occasions, from the density "of the coal gas with which it was to be inflated, and from the humidity of the atmosphere, the balloon was unable to rise. Ronal:ay.—Wednesday evening, as Mr. Bennet, a traveller, residing in Poland-street, was driving in a single-hot se chaise from Bracknel to Chertsey, he was stopped within half a mile of Virginia Water by two fellows, one of whom held the horse's head, and his companion took from him his watch and three sove reigns, together with some silver, -and a small box of jewellery patterns. The robbers led the horse into a lane, and with frightful threats made Mr. Bennet drive dpwn Ik, on pain of his life. They were armed with pistols, but used no violence. The villains were, no doubt, a part of gangs which infest the forest, and reside in huts there. Lorroserrx.—A female, upon whose memory events were recorded, which were only known to the present age through the history of the times in which they oc curred, has just taken her departure from a world ini which she had witnessed more extraordinary changes' than it has often fallen to the lot of humanity to survive. Tis aged female, whose name was Eleanor Job, died on Wednesday evening last, in Church-court, in the parish of St. Giles, at the very advanced age of 105 years. In the fit st contest between this country and America, she accompanied her husband, who was a soldier of artillery, to the latter country, where she at tended with the army in every campaign that took place, as principal nurse in what was called at that time the flying hospital. Her intrepidity and humanity were equally proverbial with the army ; for she has often been known to rush forward at the cannon's mouth, on the field of battle, to assist in the dressing of the wounded soldiers, with whom the was held in such an affectionate regard, that she was familiarly known among them by the name of "Good Mother Job." At the battle of Quebec she was particularly conspicuous in her heroic exertions to relieve the wounded, and was the person selected on that occasion to prepare for embalming the remains of the brave, gallant, and lamented Wolfe. She it was that on that melancholy occasion performed the necessary ablutions of the internal parts of the body. Her hus band having been killed in battle, she returned, at the ' close of the war, to this, her native country, without any adequate provision for her support, and for the last fifty years she has been a pauper in the parish of Saint Giles. It is but justice to the different overseers, and other officers of this parish, to say, that they have, for several years past, done everything in their power to render the close of such a life as comfortable as such circumstances could allow. She has been, until within the last eight months, able to attend in per son at - the Board-room to receive her weekly allowance, and since that time the has been regularly visited, and her wants attended to by Mr. Whitcher, the overseer, and Mr. Biggs, the assistant; the former of whom has constantly supplied her with extra funds from his-own private purse.. She continued perfectly rational to the last mo ment, and a few days before her death, was conversing familiarly about the building of St. Giles's church, in the year 1753, of which she had a perfect recollection. Her features were remarkably fine and prominent, of the Homan order. Mr. Burgess, the parish surgeon of St. Giles's, on hearing of her death, had a cast of the face immediately taken. The daughter, aged 65, the grand-daughter, aged 40,. and the great-grand-claugh: ter, aged 15, are now in attendance, paying the last tribute of respect and affection to the remains of their. venerable parent. Although the family are all in poor circumstances, none of the survivors are in the receipt of pal ish relief. Tug MA Nuscatrr or 1814.—Among the various and important historical Watts of the present season, the Volume lately published under the above toile, by Bauer Pant Elrat Cabinet Se cretary to Napoleon, appears entitled to particular attention, form ing, as it does, a complete history of the events that led to the ab dication of Napoleon—" en era of matchless consequence in the destinies of Europe."—Las Cases. alluding to it in his Journal, says t—" s Work presents an animated and integrating detail of the importsht but imperfectly known events of the period,' and in particular, of lee theft but immortal Campaign of isl 4.

HORSE RACINGIN GERMANY DOURAN ( Mscat.vmuftes), A tie. 15.—The example of England, which sets a pattern to the rest of the world in everything connected with the useful and the agreeable, is about to be adopted in this country, with regard to the elegant amusement of horse-racing.— Nothing, probably, has conduced more to the superior breed of that noble animal the horse, than the ardour with which, during a long period, the English have prosecuted the sports of the turf. AU thole, therefore, who take delight In rural economy and genuine improvement, will learn with pleasure that the Duke of :Mecklenburg!' intends annually to set apart four days in the month of August for the encouragement of horse-racing—such horse-racing to take place here at Doberan. The initiation has in fact just been witnessed. Yesterday was the day, when a great number of persons from all parts of the Principality flocked hitherward to behold the beautiful and very interesting spectacle. Upwards of four hundred equipage:, some cf them very elegem:, were on the ground. It was expected th..t we should have been honoured with the august presence of the King of Prussia, but his Majesty has nut yet visited the baths. Every place of reception was crowded to excess. And though covers were laid for 600 persons in the great dining-room of the Duke's Hotel, besides every pos,itile arrangement being made by the minor Restaurateurs, yet, no:with standing every exertion, so great was the number of guests, that they were .with extreme difficulty ac , ...onnadated. There were siz diffetent Races.—Their Royal Highnesses the Hereditary tirand Dukes, and the Princes William and Charles of Prussia , oblig ingly condescended to take upon then' the office of Stewards. —The first prize was won by Mr. Von Muller ; the second by the horse of the Count Von Bassewitz Probbtrede; the third be Col. Von Mullet-Strippow. The Alexandrine Plate tonsured of two prizes, namely, an elegant Gold Cup and a Silver Cup. Mr. Von Beil-Tarow gained the first by a famous English bland mare • the second fell to the lot of Mr. Von Blucher. Iler Imperial mare; the Grand Duchess Alezandrina graciously presented the two cups to the winners with her own fair hands. The sixth and final race was rode by farmers on half-bred horses : one Juers was the winner, besting five others. One of the countrymen, in too ra pidly alighting from his horse, had the misfortune to break his leg; be, however, not only received the general sympathy in 'ml words, but an i mmediate kind mediate subscription was set ou foot, and the sum of three hundred dollars (about sixty pounds sterling) raised, which he received upon the spot. The first four races were run in excellent speed—about 900 yards English (which is twenty yards more than half a mile) in one minute : and this applies not only to the English horses, but to the native Alecklenhurghers. In point of fact, the latter only could be entered for the subeeriptifin plates. The race-ground has been moat happily chosen. The die. tame is not far from the Baths. On all sides a beautiful perspective assets the eye, which is agreeably aided by looking down upon the friendly residence of Doberan. No doubt, against another year, the concourse of visitors will be very great. MATCH TO YORK. The following is the result of this great pedestrian undertaking Vp Mr. Irvine, to go from London to York and hack, 304 miles, 11l One days and eight hours, such being five hours less than the cane iamb undertaken by the pedestrian Powell, in 1792. It h a s b.,., / , seated that he went 78 miles the first day, Saturday. He started at two o'clock on Sunday morning, and went on leisurely till elg t hav ing done 23 miles. He breakfasted at Cottersworth. After half an hour's rest, the pedestrian went on at the rate of about four miles and a half each hour, until he reached Newark, where be baked an boar. It was about eight o'clock on Sunday remits when he was at Bavrtry, and he passed through Doncaster at twelve, and halted two hours at Went-bridge. At ten o'clock on Mond • y evening, the third day, be was 30 miles on his journey back, having ranched York at mid-day. At eleven on Monday night the pedes trim bad accomplished 231 miles. On the fourth night he had done 808 miles; and at ten on Wednesday night he had 33 mile, to do'i the remaining twelve hours.
