He WAS receiv , •d with every mark of re spect by the Governor and Lieutenant Governot. It was remarked he entered minutely into all the details of the military evolutions; and that in passing through the Ilia, where the Cadets were receiving instruc tion, he gave particular attention, not only to the system, but alsJ io the performances of individuals. There was an appearance of intelligence and a kind heartedness in his manner that quite charmed the young soldiers, and they were delighted to see him, with the utmost affability, seat himself among them, and partake of their dinner, he himself taki , tg the trouble to help each Cadet, at the.table where he sat, to his just share of the pudding.

At i period like the prevent, when retrenchment, and the abo lition of redundant imumesserf sinecures is the order of the day, I would fain, through the - medium of your excellent journal, suggest to his Majesty's Ministers, the expediency of doing away with the Generalship vast ColOnelcies of Marines, which are appointments perfectly distinct from that meritorious Corps. The public are generally impressed with the opinion, that -those situations are conferred on she Oilerra of the Corps itself, few being aware that they are exclusively bestowed on t u at o id os te who are to fortunate as to possess Borough or family interest, and are in no shape connected with the serving Corps. hese appointments are amongst the number of sinecures which might very fairly be put down. In say. ing this, I wish not to detract Irom the professional merits of the Officers who at present enjoy those 'situations; hut, I would ask, are th ey not otherwise provided for by the btate If lam told they are not, then all the other Admit. rale and Captains on the Naval list have cause cif complaint, and they should present a Memorial to the Head of the Executive, praying that thermay be quartered on the estimate for that branch of the service, which was it not for the salaries paid to a General,' Lieutenant-General, Major-General, and four Colonels, yelep.d of the Maritsa (although they never wore a red coat), would be very small in the scale of expenditure ; and recourse need not be had to the heart-rending uteasure that has been adopted within these few days, of putting serenty•two, First Lieutenants on half. py, who, having exhausted the very prime of their lives in the service of their Country, under all hardships and *evert dell of climate, &e. are liINVBII en the world at a period when they are too old to turn to any habits of industry, or leant a trade, which, with the harrow modicum of their half-pay, etaigist liable them (with, perhaps, their wives and children) to exist without becoming burthensome to the parish where they may reside- flay 3U3T1T1.11. One of the stupendous trees which adorned the park of Arundel fot nearly SOO years, was blown down by the late storm; it was planted with others, by an Earl of Ant:wpm, in the reign of Roue the Eighth. JURY CouRT, EmNisuitou.—Monday the Jury Court met and proceeded to a new trial of the issue !emitted to them by the Second Division of the Court of Session, in the case of the Earl of Fir's v. the Timmins. of the late Earl, as formerly mentioned, The Court were occupied till two o'clock next mor ning. TICe Jury found- 1 4 That it 114 s not been proved that the deeds under reduction were read over to the said Earl of Fife, previous to the said Earl's name being put thereto." Wednesday JAI Morris, or Morriroa, was brought from Bridewell and exposed for an hour on the pil lory, on the High-street, Edinburgh, pUrsuant to his sentence, for perjury, committed in giving evidence on the trial of a person of the name of Black, recently executed there for highway robbery. The street, from the Tron Church to the Exchange, was crowded; but by the outrageous conduct of a.nunsber of individuals, the attention of the multitude was soon drawn from culprit to the public executioner, whom they pel -1 tedlor some time with mud and stones ; and latterly, breaking in upon the town-guard soldiers , who sur rounded the pillory, bore him off, and maltreated him in a most scandalous manner, until he was rescued ' from their senseless • vengeance by some people in the crowd, and conveyed off the street. The town guard soldiers bore the ill•treatment they received , with great pat ience. and, maintaiped their ground with fi rmness, until they' were overpowered by the multitude of their assailants- In the end, a strong body of police Oficers appeared, who soon drove off Sig, aggressors, and restored order ; but, unfottu nately, the mischief was already done. The culprit behaved with the most hardened indifference, laugh ing aloud at the outrageous proceedings which were going on ; and at one time, when the pressure of the crowd forced the executioner close to the pillory, he actually kicked him with his feet. , , Tth A 7 R . OiEna-Honsfu ilatordift millet c9rnic Opera of La Manor's was revived at this Theatre, after having been suspended for fourteen years. This is a piece of considerable merit. There is more action in it, and the story is more clearly and intelligibly told, than in most other Operas. La Mo linaro is a miller's daughter, with wh.'m every body who sees her falls in love. The effect of this is, in some instances, to render old beaus ridiculous; another instance, to disembarrass a yonng lady of rank from her lover, who is indifferent about her, and who was to have been forced Upon her by his parents. Such is the business which chiefly constitutes the fable. The overture and music are extremely tine; and Louie of the airs are familiar to till English ear, p that beautiful one which has been adapted to our words, " Whither my love, all ! whither art thou gone.:' In this, Madame Fotion. who sang it in exquisite style, was encored. signor BaAssrm, A new performer, and a very I.;4(id actor as a hullo, sung an excellent comic bravura with great efFct, and caused much laughter. In this song he was en. cored. On the %%hole, the revival of this opera was attended with every success that could be wished. The House boasted of an elegant audience, and al- , most all the boxes were filled. Among the ladies' dresses, instead of the red shawls which were lately strgeneral, and which gave such a uniform appear. ance to the boxes, we observed several large satin glossy cloaks. The Duchess of YORK, the Duchess of Gun;cesrEn, and the Grand Duke blicuotAr, were present, with a long list of N , bility. DRIURY-LANZ THILITRE.—A rear Tragedy, from the per. of the Author of " Bertram," was brought out on Saturday, entitled " Monad." The principal I characters were thus cast : Manuel - - De &los . . Torristo end Mendiaabel . Victoria - - Mr. KLAN. Mr. 14 A E• Mr. WALLACK. Mr. HOLLAND. Miss SOMe RviLLe. . Ximena . . - Mrs. KNIGH r. The following will be found a conect outline of the story Alonzo, son of Manuel, Comet Valdi, having distinguished himself at the battle of Tolosa, and rescued Cordova from the Moors, is expected at his father's mansion, where a festival is prepared. His page first arrives, hoping to find his master (who had proceeded alone by a forest road) already there. This excites alarm ; and soon after, his war-steed coming, with bloody stains and his broken lance, raises dreadful surmises dins murder. The forest is searched in vain, and Manurl, mad wilt angush, accuses De Zelos, his needy kinsman, who is twit heir to him after Alonzo, of being the murderer, though without proof. Manuel demands a trial, at which he persists, unsupported, in the accusation, under the strongest conviction of his kinsman's guilt. De Zelos at length clears himself by an oath ; but Manuel, unsatisfied by the formal deposition, dares him to swear upon the bier on which a band of Spa nish warriors are carrying Alonzo's armour, to de posit it on some holy shrine. 15e Zelos hesitates, and his son Torrismond, ag.mized by a doubt of I. is lather's innocence, rushes in, and prevents hint from sealing the damning asseveration. De Z Ins has already demanded the combat, and the Spanish No. bles who support him determine to banish Manuel if its issue fail him. Torrismond is with difficulty con -tinted of his father's innocence, and unmoved by the entreaties of Victoria, by whom he is beloved, ap pears iit the lists as Isis father's champion. Manuel has no champion, but an unknown warrior comes in his behalf ; is mortally wounded; but ere he is borne off, he uncloses his vizor to De Zelos, and slieses himself to be a Moor, who has mysteriously appeared in a former scene. Manuel is banished to an ancient castle, and his.daughter, who attends him in his frantic state, accompanies him. Thither also Ximena, who has been betrothed to Alonzo, and who hope , leesly pines for his loss, wanders, and meets Manuel at Alonzo's cenotaph. In the same vault she finds the Moor expiring, who co. fesses that he had been Hied to murder Alonzo, but restrained by an oath, be will pot give up the name of his employer. He, however, entrusts her with a dagger, the blade of which bears the name he has sworn not to reveal, binding her to commit it undraun to the hands of justice. This she dying delivers to Torrismond.— De Zelos, in search of his daughter, arrives at the kaiak of Manuel. Torrismond rushes in, glorying in his father's innocence. Mendizalsel, the Juitiaa, de sires him to unsheath the dagger. He does so, and discovering his father's name, stabs himself. De Zelos sinks oppressed with guilt • and Manuel dies, glorying in the thought that lie Zelos is childless as himself. From the fable it will be seen, that the ground Mr. Marbling has taken affords abundant opportu nities for the display of the terrific and the at/cc:lug. The interest of the spectator is excited strongly by the beginning of the Play; but that interest is not adequately kept up by rapidity of action. The grow ing freilzy of Manuel, and the workings of conscience in De Ze!os, are not sufficient, without some visible progress of the one toward. discovery, or of the other towards revenge. From die cud of the first Act, Manuel is convinced of the guilt'of his kinsman; but he does not get a step nearer the proof of it, till it is revealed by accident. This barenness of the story 'has been attempted to be enriched by too many melo dramatic surprises and striking spectacles, which are not always judiciously introduced. The arms and reliques of Aimee are brought into the Court of Jus tice, without any attempt at an explanation br a reason for it. All the acts but the last end with some emit de Theatre, not in the best taste, and too much after the fashion of some German authors. With all these defects, the Play possesses great merit. There are some passages of good poetry, and many traits qi character and passion, which we have looked for Nl' vain in more faultless performances. The lan page. though at times slovenly, is often energetic, ' and the scertical effect is in many instances extremely good. But there is oae reason, which, if there were no other, would give this play an interest on Drury lane Stage. " It is the appearance of KEAN as tile old ,and frenzied father. There were not, it is true, as many opportunities as we could wish for the exertion of his talents; but he suffered not one to pass unadorned by the power of his art. When he is told that search has been made for his son in vain, his exclamation— " Let none search but fathers"—was admirable. On the trial s he falls on his knees to be Zeit:v., and cries, 1 `heonfesi ! tired t will him thee," iii • a hreneer e. , :: *-, .Fa!re lull Force to the p assage , w hi c h t h us le ca nite,..- o of the most s tr i kin g i n t h e p l ay .

Covase GAItUltX.—An ovlii awing audience was atsembled at' this Tit:retro, en Saturday night, to I witness Mr. iloserit's first tr s orrintion of the arduous character of Sir Giles firrvr:ach. The difficulties of this great part were Mete. sed by the fame which it had gained for another eis:inguished actor, ard br the conviction la !licit earatut have failed to exist ia Mr. BOOTH'S own mind, as well as in that of the pul - tic, that this was one of those bold enterprises and decisive irterformancei by which Iris credit must staud or fall. On his first appearance, Mr. la' Kiri( war greeted with thunders of applause, she uts, waving cf hate, and eery symptom, ma only of sincere recon ciliation, but of gr.xtvia,l cepularity. 1.1 the first and second acts, few opportunities occur to displey tAe su perior powers of an actor. In his tirst interview with his daughter he was particularly happy. 'rile soli citude with which •he examined her dress--his anxiety lest she should not be able to captivate the Lord whom lie - wishes for" her husband, and the bla zing countenance. the smile of gratifiad affection and vanity, and the sound of exultation which broke from.his bps when the result of his examination was a full conviction of the power of her charms, presen ted a most effective and original picture of the feel ings of a lather who sacrifices every principle to the elevation of his child. The vehemence with which he repels her scruples, and the sudden change, in a subsequent scene, from a storm of eeproaches add wrath to assumed serenity at the appearance of Lard bird, were also most •succetsful, and like the former effort, produced several rounds of !Invited applause. At the moment when .hotice Grrrdy bursts from the kitchen into his Lordship's presence with a towel round his neck, the Drury I.:the Sir Ohs, in a mau -1 tier totally inconsistent with the pride of a character who wishes retry person and every thing about him to give an high isle.' of his own importance, intro duces him u ith a sneer to Lord 1.6,d. Mr. Boom acted with mere Inutile ty. lie hastily snatched the towel hum the 11l titan's neck, as though ashamed that it should be seen, and then proceeded with due decorum to the ceremony of introduction. These are points which slim. tha it there be a great similarity between the tie,' performers, it suites more from 4 coins 'deice of get ins than from an imitatiou olatyle. —Mr, Boone had to skilfully man iged his v•a..• thretighout, that out:.- .d of growitig exhausted with his exertions, it actiwted firth power as he proceeded. This was never more conericuous than in the last act, where ainalst the raviegs of passion it never degene rated into an indistinct growl, but expressed all the changing emotions of his soul with a degree of strength and clearness which augmented their effect. The pley of his countenance was varied, natural, and terrible ; his action appropriate and energetic. The silent Agitation of his frame when he discovered the parchment to be a blank ; the fury with which lie drew to attack Wei:kris ; and, alter the destruction of all his hopes, the desperation with which he rushed towards his daughter, lifted his sword, and checked in the act- of striking by a return of parental affec tion, shaken hie thousand emotions, stood convulsed fee a while, and then fell backwards to the ground under the tempest of his own feelings, were moments of terrific kraddeur which we do not recollect to have seen exceeded. Their effect was universally felt ; peels of applause succeeded etch other - from all parrs of the House, and the pit rose amidst the waving of hats, and the shouts of the whole audience.— Mr. C. KUM 4 1, :ave a degree of interest and promi nence to the pa.t of *diva, which it had riot yet re. ceived. He was also frequently and justly applee- Lied. TERRY its Marla!, BLANCeIAItD in fattier Weedy, Mrs. Favor, in Lady ild worth, and Itlia Boom, in Margarci. displayed consummate excellence. Tte other parts were most ably sustained, and the whole embellished by new and splendid scenery, gave nu bounded satisfaction to a most crowded Huuse.

The Captain of the American ship James was nearly beaten to death by twelve of these sailors, tour of whom h.ve been arrested.
