The Capture of Pensacola by storm is generally cre . ted by tke Lest informed American merchants in the ity. The letters received on Friday give the intelli gence without affecting any doubt on the subject. The British Consul at Philadelphia, on mentioning the news, Cates, that is reported LOO American soldiers were killed or wounded in the assault. Clotcral jackfam, in Hato dispatch, " I am on my mach to Pensacola, which place I shall probably have to occupy with an American garrison." If, therefore, the aggrcs:.ion has beer. committed, it was at least not an ti!;res,:en difficulty ; and assuming the fact to be as which scents now hardly disputable, war may be considered a.; actually sabsistlug between Spain and' the United States. We have received an important letter from Spain, by which it appears that Ferdinaad having presided at several State Councils, in which the subject of the Spanish Colonies was agitated, Couriers were dispatched to several of the Allied Powers : there is little doubt but that they related in some measure to the occupa tion of the Floridas, by the troops of the United States . Extract of a letter dated Irun, July 7 :—" The Go ..:Janent has received official news from South Ameri-. la, brought by vessels arrived at Cadiz within the last few days ; it is to be presumed that it is not favourable, :tr the greatest silence has been preserved. The King has presided several times at the Council of State, when the affairs of our colonies came under consideration.— Couriers have been scat off with dispatches - for Russia, London an•l Paris. On the other hand, the most strict •esters have been sent co Cadiz, to accelerate the de parture of the grand expedition, which has been a long . f i u x preparing :a tilat pc;:. The recruiting continues, 'E NATIONAL REGISTEII, and it is said, that all the officers unemployed have been invited to go to South America, with a promise of re compense proportioned to their services. In general the troops have shown a dislike to embark, and the news circulated is by no means suited to give them ardour. " The port of Cadiz is at this moment blockadetl, And nuracrous privateers cruizc at the entrance. A merchant vessel was nil-en at the moment it was enter ing, and carried off by the pirates." Saturday wereecived the Paris Papers of Wednesday last. The only interesting part of their contents, is• the proceedings in the ease of General Cannel against Senneville and Fabv•Lr. General Cannel himself op peured in Court, soliciting a de:ay in the tri.il which, was accordingly postponed till the Ist Jf nest month.. The General cfterwards surrendered hzn,elf to the. Judge of Instruction, who, however, permitted him to: return, house, urn his promise to present himself on the following day. The speech made by the General is exceedingly interesting - at , the present moment, con-' nested as the afrair.is with the late conspiracy. The French Funds have dcelince It is said in these papers, that Sir I'. Maitland has arrived at - Genoa in the Glasgow , frigate from the lonian Islands. A letter in the 14mrnal du la Belgiyme reports, that in eav the approaching conferences at Aix-la-Chapelle should .give rise to a resolution to with draw the Allied tr ,, ops 'from France, the :different Sovereigns will review their several contingents; when •the Austrian force will march homeward through the Brisgau ; the Prussians by Luxemburg ; the Saxons and Danes by the shortest route, and the Russians be conveyed by sea. The Prinecs Metternich and liar denberg have hired two spacious houses fur the persons attached to their respective missions, who, it seems, will be very numerous. The Duke of Wellington and Lord rastleroagh are looted for on the part of England, and the*Duke of Richelieu as French Minister. The Asiati: Mirror of the 25th of February con tains intelligence of the success of General Brown against the camps of Juswent Rea Bhow, and against the town of Jwahud, which he took by storm on the :29th of January. The details of these operations are not very full, but enough appears to show that the attacks upon the enemy were combined with skill, and executed with great intrepidity. We took on these occasions several guns, and experienced but a triflng loss in killed and wounded of the army. No accounts of the general state of the war are communicated through the above channel. The French papers contain no further account of the plot, but, we are glad to see that every thing is in train for judicial investigation and open trial: it is this .sort of inquiry zlonc which can either be satisfactory to the nation at large, or useful for the guidance of the Government itself; because by this means alone the whole truth can in any case be elicited. The King's brother is said to have given orders to all under his influence, that no individual, however menaced, shall quit his pest till the course of justice has disclosed the real delin9nents. It is even said that General Canucl, who disappeared so mysteriously, , intended to aoty himself before the Court of Correctional Police last Tuesday, when the case of calumny in which he was plaintiff was to be heard. The next arrivals from Paris will show whether this extraordinary reappear- - mice took place. Gen. Donadice, who was sent to • Clermont to review a Swiss regiment, is said to have met with the usual fate of intemperate zeal; his friendc - iiistrust him, and suspect that he has toned in former. No new arrest has taken place in consequence of the conspiracy, and only one change among etriciel men, and that of a somewhae equivocal nature. M. Kergarion, who had made the nut unfreouent. trans fer of opinion from Buonapartism to hiel aristocracy, has been recallel from an importanteand active function at Rouen, to be invested with the honourable but less active appointment of a Councillor of State. In the • midst of theme disturbances the King has preserved his calm and discriminating good sense : while he views with the proper diegust the insane attempts of his pre tended frieads, he knows also how to appreciate the selfishness of those who seize the first moment of genet. ral sperm, if not of general derger, for the, purpose o displaying their own importance, at the risk of cmlyar rassing the Government and distracting the aftections of the peeple. For this reason, Marshal Marmont is said to be at present out of favour with his Majesty, for having, at time very moment of the disclosure of time plot, made a parade of coming forward to take upon himself all the blame which General Cantle' (an alleged accomplice in the conspiracy) had thrown upon the. Marshal's Aide-de-Camp, about the old story of the Lyonuese quarrel. Th.s was at least ill-timed, and equally unworthy of the interestedness of a patriot and of the generosity of a soldier. THE D1i.i.11.1. 3ITLY f 27 ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE. We are happy to see the exertions of' the ntanrger of this theatre keep pace with his promises. This pas:- week has again been characterized by the production. of a new piece under the title of fbct9r Bolnv.—lt is of the Berlespe species, and efforde,l sal:plc scope fig the comic talents of Mr. Harley and Nliss Kelly. The latter we do not - recollect to have seen before in a per fit:nuance of this kind, and most heartily congratulat? 11 , -r on her personation of Qhce:i kataiinda. It was indeed the highest essence of the burlesque, and in e a mad scene, the ludicrous expression of her countenance, .non vulsed the audience withle ughter. piece Er ish c with' a dance, which is a burlesque on dame ititroduce , 7. in the finale to the grand ballet of the ihilian Opera. and the tableau which concludes it, re., it: which all the dancers assume extravagant attitudes, is among the -happiest exertion of the performers.—The piece was received throughout with decided approbation. Miss Carew and Miss Kelly still continue to render our old favourite opera of Rovina and the Beggar's Opera, too attnzetice to make us remember how often we have seen them—The Indians nightly render &rouse more attractive than we remember it since the first season of its representation, maul arc advertised to appear in the Opera of the Americans, which is to be revived Ihr the pt'posc of their introduction The illuminated shrubbery essumed a new and more elegant form in the disposition of its trees on Monday .evenn-5 and attracts crowds of visitors of both sexes, who find the coolness of the fountains and the shade of the groves the best re• treat during the unparalleled heat of the weather. HAI MARKE I THEATRE. Mr. .4r. Russel, the actor who lately appeared in Dr. 011apud, on Wednesday night perform-Al the character of Sonmu in the Sleep Walker. Tlo general tone of the part was given in very good style, and some of his imitations were at once car:" to be disci :;wished, and •entirey free fram all caricature and distortion. In the imitation of singing he was particularly successfid ; he Las a powerful and well-fhrmed voice ty nature, with infinite facility in grafting on it the peculiar manner of others; that. of Incledon was a lac sip:de. Some gentleman in the pit was very active in expressing his disapprobation, which was so much resented as to tause the e.xpadsion of the offender. The applause was then universal. Mr_ Warde made his second attempt on a London stagy on Friday night in the character of o,:invian. Like his Leon, it was a good and correct rather than a great cud striking perfimmance Nothing could be more picturesque than his appear:wee, and general manner, or present a better outline of this singular character; in the details and the, colouring of the deeper tints of feeling he was occasionally deficient ; he presented the ruined limn and the de jectee. manner, but the permrtcd intellect and ardent love, in their nicer s:l►ades of delineation, escaped him II is best pas sares were hls first meeting with 174wandre, and the scene where he discovers he has no longer a rival. Mr. Warde was received with the warmest applause, and is evidently a growing favourite of the p&tblic. Miss E. Blanchard r.:preseatcd Zoraida in an interesting man. ncr. Mr. Kean, on his arrival in Paris, took up his resi dence at the London Hotel ; at which time 160 Eng lish persons lodged there. He was almost immediately visited by Talma, who gave a superb dinner.to Mr_ Kean and a numerous party on the •25th inst. Mr. Kean was to leave Paris on Mon lay last on his route to Gene :a. Several material alterations arc making in the:Covent Garden company, preparatory to the re-opening of the theatre in September next. Sinclair has given in his resignation, and the names of Miss S. Booth and Mrs. Egerton no longerappear in the prompter's list. Among the new arrangements are these of Miss Kelly and her sister, Mrs. Hill, Mrs.Dkkins, Mrs. Yates (front Dublin), Miss Somerville, Mr. Pyre, late of Drury Lane, and a Mr. Hunt from the country. The whole of the bane. with the exception of Mr. Ware, the leader, and two others are tlischarged. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has granted a surn of 5001...f0r the relief of the inhabitants of Scilly and Islands. It is stated, however, by the Cornwall Ga zette, that 10001. at least arc necescary to satisfy their present necessities; and front .20001. to 30001. to esta blish mackerel and .pikhard fisheries, as the only mea sure of permanent support. The same paper-strongly recommends the opening of subscriptions thr that chari table purpose. The following is from a .Liverpool paper, and we hope the conjecture that all is quiet in Manchester may prove .well finintled ;—" One and twenty per sons have been apprehended on a charge of rioting, ten of whom have, we understand, been committed to Chester Castle. The Manchester paper makes no men tion of the proceedings of the workmen who had struck for wages at that place ; so that we sninfose all is trait, quit there." Letters from Jamaica, mention the shock of an earth rtnake, which had been telt throughout the whole island. The day is not specified.
