There ha, been no event of importance in Canada subsequent to that of the sth of May, when the British were driven back by superior• numbers. •On that occasion, it will be re collected, General Riall, with the Briti , b troops, retired to Chi ppat% a.

The expected arrival of Charles IV. it is said, con tinues to excite the greatest alarm a! the Court of Madrid, and it is even asserted, that orders had been issued on the frontiers, and at the different ports, to arrest him if he .should present himself.
