Extract from the Gibraltar t hromiee of the 4th July:—" The Si. Pablo Spaniet ship of the line is arrived at Cadiz front Algiers, and confirms the ac count of the unsatisfactory turn which the negotia tion between the Spanish and A Igerine Governments had taken. The Spanish Vice-Consul had left Al giers, and the Government has made these circum stance:, officially known, in order that the Spanish merchantmen may be upon their guard against any hostile attempts of the Algerine cruisers."

Doyen, ULV 21.—Yesterday morning, at the early hour of two o'clock, their Royal highnesses the Crown Prince end Princess of Denmark and suite arrived at Wright's (Ship hotel), to embark on board the li'qyal Sovereign yacht,on their return tc Daueark by way of France. Their Royal high nesses having travelled post for some distance, stop ped here the whole of yesterday to repose themselves after the fatigue of their journey. In the course of the day they went and looked over our famous cas tle, after which they returned, and each, as well as the principal part of their suite, took a warm bath. About nine o'clock this morning their Royal High nesses went off in a boat belonging to the Custom house, the ro:al standard hoisted over their heads, and were :coon on board the yacht, under a royal salute front the guns at the heights, the flags flying at the castle, heights, &e. The yacht, which had previously weighed anchor, then sailed, with a fine breeze at west-south-west, and was likely to land their Royal Irtglines.,es at Calais in tivo and a half or three hours from the time (.ff embarkation. COURT or Cii INCERY.—A few minutes after ten o'clock on Tuesday morning, all the parties in at tendance in the case of Horatio Reeve, the young man who committed a conteihrt of Court, in running away with a young woman of'llte name of Drusilla Street, at Exeter, lately made a Ward of the Court, were brought bufore the Lord Chancellor. The case was heard for nearly an hour in his Lordship's pri vale room, and ended in the committal of Horatio Reeve and his brother to the Fleet. The mother of the Ward has been allowed till the latter end of the we A, to answer some affidavits. Mr. J. Emery, of Covent-garden Theatre, after an illness of three weeks, caused by an excessive in ward debility, brought on, as it is supposed, by a diseased liver, and which at last attached itself to the lungs, breathed his last a few minutes past eight o'clock on Thursday evening last, at his house in Ilyde-street, Bloomsbury. lie was in his -17th year: and has left an amiable will: and seven young children to lament his loss, for whose future support and maintenance, however, there is every reason to fear he Ws not made the most sltniler provision.— Mr. Emery has always been a decided favourite in his own inimAiate line of acting, viz. the lorkshirc *7lB6c—the stage, it is universally allowed, never produced his equal; und, in all probability, " we shall never look upon his like again !" He had excellent natural abilities, was a good musician (to which profession it was intended by his parents he should have been brought up), and lie was likewise a good artist. To his duty in his profession, Le was ever most strictly attentive ; so much so, that when dining in public, or the society of his friends, and the time drew near which required his attendance at the theatre, his watch was invariably placed upon the table; and he was never known, during the whole course of his engagement at Covent Garden, to disappoint the public but once—and that was tram the subject of the accuchein.:nt of his wife.— His natural and unsophisticated apology to the audience on that occasion, cannot fail to be very generally remembered. In the death of Mr. Emery the stage and the public will suffer a very severe loss; his wife and family the deprivation of a most indulgent hu'band and father—and his friends and associates that of a warm hearted, generous, and in t companion. On Thursday last the widow of Ilenry Sander son, who was executed at Nottingham, last March, fur shooting at Sir G. White's gaine-kecper, was de livered of /sips. This unfortunate woman has now six children to protect. THE NATIONAL REGISTER VoliCe. 110 W STREET.
