P Extract from the Gibraltar Chronicli of the 4th July:—" The Si. Pablo Spanish ship of the line is arrived at Cadiz from Algiers, and confirms the ac count of the unsatisfactory turn which the negotia tion between the Spanish and A Igo ine Governments had taken. The Spanish Vice-Consul had left Al giers, and the Government has made these circum stances officially known, in order that the Spanish merchantmen may be upon their guard against any hostile attempts of the Algerine cruisers." On Monday last, his Majesty held a Court at his . Palace, in Pall-mall, principally fur the purpose of holding a Chapter of the most noble Order of the Garter, in order to confer the order and riband, va cant by the decease of the late Marquis of Hertford, Knight Compiaon of the Order, when George J. Chohnondeley, Marquis of Chohnondeley, was de ciared duly elected. Garter principal King of Arms and the Usher of the Black Rod attended the two ji;tior Knish;.; present, anti the Earl Bathurst and the i'slarquis of Londonderry, making their usual obeisances to the Sovereign, left the chapter-room fin an adjoining room, and introduced the Most Noble the Marquis of Chohnondeley, Garter King of Arms bearing the Insignia of the Order, with which his Majesty was gracionsly pleased to invest the Noble Marquis, who had been previously knighted with the Guelphic Order. The Chancel lor then pronounced the usual admonitions to the Marquis, who afterwards received the congratula tions of the Knights Companions present. Doren, Ju' f4l.—Yestertlay morning, at the early hour of two o'clock, their Royal Highneses the Crown Prince and Princess of Denmark and suite arrived at Wright's (Ship Hotel), to embark on board the Rodal Sovereign yacht, on their return to Denmark by way of France. Their Royal High nesses having travelled post for sonic distance, stop ped here the whole of yesterday to repose themselves after the fatigue of their journey. In the eJurse of the day they went and looked over our famous cas tle, after which they returned, and each, as well us the principal part of their suite, took a warm bath. About nine o'clock this morning their Royal High nesses went oaf in a boat belonging to the Custom- Louse, the royal standard hoisted over their heads, and were soon on board the yacht, under a royal salate front the guns at the heights, the flags flying at the castle, heights, &c. The yacht, which had previously weighed anchor, then sailed, with a fine breeze at west-south-west, and was likely to land their Royal M:ghnesses at Calais in two and a half or three hours from the time of embarkation. COURT or CH NC Eitsr.—A few minutes after ten o'cloik on Tuesday morning, all the parties in at tendance in the case of Horatio Reeve, the young mini who committed a contempt of Court, in running away with a young woman of the name of Drusilla Street, at Exeter, lately made a Ward of the Court, were brought before the Lord Chancellor. The case was heard for nearly an hour in his Lordship's isri gate 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 week, 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 Hyde-street, Bloomsbury. lie was in his 47th year: and has left an amiable wife and seven young children to lament kis loss, for whose future support and maintenance, however, there is every reason to fear Le has not made the most slender provision.— Mr. Emery has always been a decided favourite in Lis own immediate line of acting, viz. the Yorkshire rwstie—the stage, it is universally allowed, never produced his equal ; and, 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 he was likewise a good artist. To his duty in his profession, he was ever most strictly attentive; so much so, that when dining in public, or the society of his friends, anti the time drew near whieli 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 from the subject of the accauchemsnt of his wife:— His natural and unsephisticuted apology to the audience en that occasion, cannot fail to be very generally rememhered. In the death of Mr. Emery the stage and the public will suffer a very severe less; his wife and funily tie deprivation of it most indul, 4 ent husband and father—and his friends and associates that of a warm hearted, generous, and in tclliyco conipanion. On Thursday last the wi low of Ifenry Sander son, who was executed at Nottingham, last March, ftfinshooting at S.r G. Whi te ' s game.keeper, was de livered of /mitts.

Site was keeping his bruise, and he desired her, if Mrs. Flight showed herself there in his absence, to turn her out, and she had dime so, but in as gentle a manner as possible. S.r It. Brine said there was something in the back ground, and begged it might be explained. Mrs. Etheridge said Mrs. Flight quitted the house in December lasi, under very disgraceful circ ~,,, staiwes, and had never returned until Wediresday.

The entertainment. being a fele in honour of his Nlajesty's cosonation, the gardens were extremely crowded with company, which% brought a great number of carriages; they went so nu merous, that the publ:c road, and the open spaces sound the gardens, weir completely blocked up, and continued so fur a consid, ruble time. He admitted that he fre quently heard his number called, and lie made every pos.- W. 1.! exertion to answer it, and to get up to the door at the gardens; which, after considerable ex triton he ac complished, and directly afterwards several versulis got into the coach. In a short time he discovered that it was not the party who had engaged hint to wait, and he with much difficulty got them out of his coach, for which a gen:leo:au of that party stunmonsd•him for re fusing us take hint as a fare, and he appeared to that summons last Tuesday, and stated, the above circum- StaliCes in his defence, which did not avail wish tho Magistrate, he nut producing any proof, and the Magis trate Was about to coatict Miss iii the penalty of los., but the gentleman did not press his conviction.

To prove that he did wait and answer the call of the number of his coach, ho called the W31Cr111:111, who satisfactorily proved that ha was not absent from his coach all the night. Sir R.
