DRIgHTON, JANUARY 21. Divine Service, in the presence of the limo, suite, and Household, was performed at his Pet*Jeares private Chapel yesterday, the officiating Ministers, as usual, being the Dean of HEREFORD, and Dr. HUGH PrAlesort. Many families of Nobility, and the set-' tled inhabitants of the toa n, who had been favoured with admission tickets, were also in the Chapel. Lord and Lady RAVENSWORTH, Lord EARDLEY, Lord and Lady SAY and Seut, Lady WILLIAM Rim- TINCK, and various Officers of the 10th Royal Hus sars, had the honour of dining with his Mammy on Satin-dap, When the KING leaves the Pavilion for sLondon, it will be to oren the two Houses of Parliament—his MAJESTY returns, it is understood, about ten days subsequent to that event. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. The wine and foreign spirit trade continues very Much depressed. Them is a fall in the price of Bri tish spit its, iii consequence of some disagreement among the Gentlemen concerned in the trade. On the Corn Exchange there is 'kik variation in prices. Fine qualities are fully as dear as last week; but the quantity of inlet ior corn offered for sale is so mach lager than the consumption, that sales of this deaniption are effected with the greatest difficulty. Baltic produce fully maintains the prices of last week. ln consequence of the advanced value of, tallow in London, a quantity is on the way to Lon-' don fik.n. several of the out-ports. Accounts have been received from Buenos Ayres, which state that the Government was exerting itself to put down the numerous piracies on the commer cial interest in its neighbourhood. With this viea a Decree had been issued, that after the 6th of October last, no letters of marque were to be granted, unless the reasons for so doing were previously published, Ord all privateers were ordered to return to port within eight months after the date of the Decree, on rain of being treated as pirates, should this Decree be disobeyed. The Lord Suffield and Edward Ellice, which had been detained by Lord COCHRANE for a breach of blockade, and sent into Valparaiso, have been re stored, and sailed, the former on the 14th, the latter on the 15th September last, for Peru. The strong remonstrances of Sir 'liostas HARDY, and the de sire of the Government to remain on good terms with, the English nation, have produced this desirable' liberation. Sir TIIONAS MAITLAND has desired the principal merchants of Malta to submit to him their opinion respecting the continuance of the monopoly in corn, together with the grounds on which that opi ‘, s formed. A report was current that this branch the trAe of the island will be thrown open ii' June. The losses sustained by Commerce, in the port of t ;enoa, during the late tempestuous weathcr, has been estimaLd at lawn! than a quarter of a million sterling. _ - . (.

Mr. KEAN, in the a:t of Lear, exerted his powers with the most strik- Lg effect. It is enough to say of an effort so well kniwn to the Public, that the sufferings of the unfor tlate King and father were depicted with a fidelity vllich is entitled to the highest praise. Miss Eosin toN was the Coedelin. The part is of a more tender cast than any which this young Lady had yet at tempted, and the manner in which she acquitted her self affords good reason for asserting that the range! her abilities is not confined to the terrific merely. The defects ant those of inexperience, which time AA assiduity will easily correct. IW other respects ele Play was cast as usual, and it went of with great NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

The wind was fair and moderate when they left this village in a small skiff; but when opposite to the island of Coll it became boiste rous. They were seen off that island, making for the land, and calling for assistance; but, alas! the tremendous waves then roll ing along that rocky coast, prevented the inhabitants from af fording them the least relief. The boat was upset in their pre sence. Some days after, the hats of the men, and a trunk and pocket-book belonging to Mr. M`Dowaxt., were picked up on the shore, hut none of the bodies have yet been found. Mr. 31' DONA et. has left a widow and young family to deplore his loss."

The brig Durham, ORNI, bound to Portsmouth, cargo 2,100 bushels of salt, 180 bags of coffee, and three tons llraziletto wood, went on shore on Orleans Beach, on the night of December 13, et half-pas nine, in a violent storm-67 bags of coffee were landed same morning,with part of the wood. The brig heeled off shore, and the sea making a breach over her, stove the lung-boat to pieces, carried away the companion way, staunsbeons, spare spars, and everything on deck; knocked off the hatches, and filled the vessel with water. The foretop-gallant-sail,which had been taken on deck to repair, and several steering-sails, were thrown over board. The brig had not bilged, but both her hold and cabin were partly filled with sand. About two hours after the vessel struck, the mainmast was cut away, and drifted with the sails and rigging. It was intended to cut away the foremast, but was pre vented by the axe being lost. The coffee which was got ashore was much damaged, and the remainder lost. At low water the brig was high on the bench. The crew succeeded in getting on shore with much difficulty ; one of them, named Bennett,was re• leased from the surf, nearly insensible, but afterwards revived. The seamen lost all their clothes, except what they had on. A large iron-bound trunk, containing the clothing of the former Captain (gibbets) came on shore in pieces, but part of the clothing was saved. The trunk of Captain Orne, containing the vessel's papers, his clothing, &c. was thrown overboard, and drifted on shore without injury. The Durham put into Ilaneaga for water, and remained there three days. She found on the beach an American seaman, of the name of Peter Wyer, of Portland. lie had belonged to the Patriot armed schooner Grenada, Captain Pelot, Which was bound from St. Martha to St. Battlmlomew's, with sugar, and was totally lost on the Silver Keys. The crew constructed a raft with a sail, on which they embarked,, and were taken in tow by the schooner's boat. - Af terwards, captain Pelot, with his Lieutenant, four seamen, and a boy, abandoned the raft, after taking a small quantity of bread and water there was in the boat, ordered them to steer in the direction of a certain star, and left them. The raft came on shore at Ilaneaga nine days afterwards, with only six men alive, out of 2 who had been left on it. They had nothing to subsist on during those nine days but a small shark which they had caught, and no water. The men who died, either perished with hunger, or jumped overboard delirious. Two of those who landed, the cook and a boy, expired the next morning, and were buried on the beach. One of those saved, a Spaniard, was left at Haneaga, and two others, an Ame rican, belonging to Bath, and an Irish boy, had proceeded in a Jogger to Turk's Island. While on the raft, after the Captain had left it, they fell in with a ship, in the night, which took eight of them offs but a sudden squall springing up they lost sight a the ship before she mild take any more. The boat with the Captain reached the land, and a boy had been killed for those in the boat to subsist on. Among those who perished on the raft Were several inferior Officers. Boar of the crew of the Durham (Bennett, William and Na thaniel Cain, and the omit) arrived in town on Wednesday evening. They left the wreck on Monday morning, at which time her cables and anchors, sails, and part of the rigging had been got on shbre. Mr. Wye remained at Orleans. For eight days before the brig went ashore they had nbt been able to get ao obeerratitub-ziiieeteet Riper, Dee. 2441. A curious fact occurred the last beast-market in Chichester. A farmer sold a per. of fat .bee',, :and a b s olutely refused being paid for them in gold!

Dr. Quarrier, and Captain Ommanney. Considerable inconvenience having been experienced in both Regiments, on account of the Division of Portadown having been allotted to supply men towards each, it was ordered that the practice should be discontinued, and that the South Regiment should in future receive all the men bal. lotted in that division. It appearing to the Meeting, upon the representation of the General Clerk, that 152 men are required to complete the North Regiment, and 1,61 to complete the South Regiment of Hants Militia, it was agreed that she vacancies should be filled by ballot in the respective Divisions, viz.

A statement of the number of men liable to serve in the Militia was presented to the Meeting, by which it appeared, that in the Divisions comprehended in North Hants ' the total was 8,729 ; an d i n those in South Hants, 7.522.

Mr. Ness having invited the Marquis WELLESLEY to the Meeting of the Guild of Merchants, for admit ting a number of Catholics into the Guild, his Excel lency transmitted an answer in the following terms:' That although his Excellency is a Freeman of the City of Dublin, he does not consider it would be come him, in his station as Lord Lieutenant, to at tempt to influence the decision of the Guild of Mer chants on any point connected with the exercise of their privileges. All measures of conciliation must be grateful to his Excellency ; but unless they be founded on the free and cordial feelings of the Cori. poration, they will neither correspond with his Excel lency's wishes, nor be consonant to the paternal spirit of his Majesty's gracious intentions and admonitions." It is understood that his Grace the Duke of WEL. LING•ros intends to pay a visit shortly to his Illustri ous Brother in Dublin. On the motion of Sir Geonce NVIIITFORD, the Common Council have re solved to solicit his Grace to sit for his picture, that it may be placed in the Mansion•honse, next the portrait of his MAJESTY. A body of Orangemen, members of the Guild of Merchants, with Alderman NuoiNt at their head, went up to Mr. SAuniti, on Thursday, with a sort of complimentary Address, in which they spoke of his services to the country. The house of Mr. Daniel Nunan, at Baheen, near Kanturk, in this county, was attacked on the night of the 3d inst. by a strong party, who came about the house huzzaing, and insisted that the door should be immediately opened, upon which Mr. Nunan's son got out of bed, and demanded of them what they wanted ? The reply was, unless the door was in stantly opened the house would be set on fire, at the same time they broke a window in front of the house, Mr. Nunan living in a thatched house, and being obliged to surrender his arms to another banditti some time previous, was under the necessity of opening the door, when four men arched with guns entered and asked him if lie had any arms? he told them he had not ; they then demanded all the money he had in the house, upon which Mr. Nunan endeavoured to re-' monstrate a little with them on the impropriety of their conduct, when one of them said, unless he in stantly complied with their demands, he should meet his brother's fate, and they at last departed, after taking a pound note from this Gentleman, being all the money he had at the time in the house. It will be recollected that a brother of this Gentleman was brutally murdered in 1820, near the same place, for which a man of the name of Stapleton was hanged soon after.—(Limerick Chronicle.) COUNTY OF CORK._ An Inquest washeidl;y RICHARD Foor, Esq. Co roner, on Saturday last, at Palace Ann, in this county, upon the body of Cornelius Harrington, before a re spectable Jury, who, having heard the depositions of the witnesses, found—g 4 That the deceased came by his death in consequence of several wounds inflicted on his body and head, by shots fired at him by Cap tain Adderley Beamisb and Arthur Beamish Bernard, Esq. in the preservation of their own lives, and in dis , charge of their duty in protecting the Public, and preserving the peke and tranquillity of the county at large. It appears from the testimony of Mary Harring ton, sister of the deceased, that he lived at .t place leaned Gurteonacullough, in the parish of Skull, in West Carbery, and that he had been charged with v cud guilt/ aE TatiOue robberies; that he was an idler without any visible means of support, that the pistol produced to her was his, that'she saw him make bul lets of leaden spoons, that he had flints, and a powder horn, that he seldom kept at home, being ahaid of warrants that were against him, and that he had left lionse about mid-day; that another man left home with him, and that it was the relative of that person who desired her to go to Enniskean, and that 'she would hear soMe account of her brother ; that she accordingly came, supposing he was taken, but that she found him dead ; that one pair of the breeEires and .one of the shirts, which were on him, were not his own ; that a book, razor, and razor-case, siscsento her, were not his own; that he had no Bank-notes when he left home, nor had be the means of getting any-honestly for the last two years, as all he had was then sold off. Thomas Townshend, Esq. who had been robbed on the Tuesday preceding, identified a Bank-note and some other property, found on the deceased. Saturday night, January 12, a number of men, well armed, attacked the house of a man named Sul livan, at Scam in the parish of Ballyclough, and de manded his money for the purpose, as they said, of - feting lawyers and attornies in defence of the pri soners at the Special Commission. They placed the man of the house on his knees, with a blunderbuss to his face, and compelled him to acknowledge, and finally give up, what money he had in his possession. They then proceeded to the house of Mr. Robert Homan, of Fort Homan, in said parish, and de manded money. Mr. Jones, brother to the Roman Catholic Curate of Mallow, happening to be in d e house at the time, assured them that Mr. Homan was f. em home, which was the fact, and they then retired! but declared they should return in a few nights. The neat (Sunday) night, a large body scoured the parish of Anakissy, which had - hitherto been quite tranquil, and took arms from several persons. Friday night, a vast number of men attacked the house of Daniel Leahy. steward to Mr. Boyce, of Ta/- low, swore him to quit, or that his death warrant would be signed, and said that they would not allow any man to be replaced in the situation. COUNTY OF LIMERICK. FROM THE LIMERICK CHRONICLE, JAN. 16. Sunday evening, between six and seven o'clock; an armed party of men, consisting of about sixteen, went to the house of Patrick Mulqueen, of Klima reen, situate about half a mile from the Barrack at Kildimo ; upon being challenged by Mulqueen, they said they were Mr. Fitzgerald and the Police who came to search for arms. Mulqueen opening the door, the ruffians rushed in and made a close search for arms, but finding none they went off; each was armed with a musket and fixed bayonet, arid some had pistols beside. Though Captiin MIDDLETON and his party of the 42d Regiment, stationed a: Kildimo, have been continually on the alert, yet the ruffians watched their opportunity for the above outrage. Tuesday, a man of John Morgan's, Esq. of 0:41 Abbey, went to serve a process on Patrick Histon, near Shanagolden, as soon as he had done so, he was rushed upon by Histon with a pitchfork, and compellea to go upon his knees and eat the original process, being threatened with instant death in case of refusal. Histon was apprehended and lodged in the Bridewell of Shanagolden, a few hours after the occurrence. COUNTIES KILKENNY, CARLOW, AND KILDARE. FROM THR CARLOW MORNING POST, JAN. 17. Though no actual disturbance Jias arisen in any of the neighbouring Counties, the same visionary principle seems to be pretty general; the following is an extract of a letter which we have just received from a Correspondent in the County of Kilkenny I saw a notice posted up at Coollogh Chapel, in the Parish of Callan, on Sunday last, calling on the Landlords to' consider what they were about before they urged their distressed te.. nantry to further misery ; it compares the present prices of pork, butter, barley, oats, &c. with the prices obtained by this farmers when they were paying hut the same rent they are obliged to pay now; it mentioned they would be satisfied In give six pounds for dairy ground, and eight pounds for maimed ground ; and to allow one shilling and sixpence tithe on all lands tilled or untitled, and they would allow but half the present dues to Parish Priests. It was signed by Sir Simon Straight, Com.. mender - in-Chief of the County. ' FROME, SATURDAY.—This town was again thrown into a state of confusion yesterday, by the assemblage of a very considerable body of weavers from the neighbourhood, who proceeded to the houses of two or three of the town weavers that took work at the reduced prices; and although several of the respect able inhabitants interfered, they succeeded in taking the pieces off the looms. The Messrs. SHEPPARD and other respectable clothiers were on the spot, and to prevent further confusion, with their usual libe rality agreed to give the full price for what work was then in the hands of the weavers, leaving it open to future arrangement.—Bath Journal.

Friday last, a party of Mansfield Gentlemen coursing on Sher wood Forest, near the Race-ground, started a hare, which preied a " teaser," leaving her eager pursuers no other alternative than "to play all they knew," and " prove their mettle." Sprigtuy puss led the way o'er hill and dale in gallant style, and confident of her fleetness, bid defiance to the speed of winds. However, on coming near to the silent tomb of the immortal piens Thomp. son (whose remains are interred on the open forest), she dashed furiously among the lirg, and making a double, Mr, Mellor's dog, Dart, came in contact with the poor animal when, fee a short time, all sight was lost both of dog and bare ; but at leased brave Dart was discovered lying prostrate on his back, and matchless puss, extended almost breathless beneath his loins, was taken up alive by a person present.
