The Paris Papers of Tuesday last state, that on I • the 10th inst. two couriers of the Queen of England landed et Calais, M. M. Golden and Forti Carla, charged to bring Bergami to England. A private letter from France mentions, that the Countess of Oldi and the sister of Mademoiselle Dumont, are also coming to this country to give evidence in favour of her Majesty. There is no further intel ligence in these papers respecting Lisbon; but the accounts from Madrid state, that the popular tumult excited by the dismissal of Gen. Regio had subsided.' The enemies of the new constitutioir availing them selves of the disturbance endeavoured to add to the clamour, and even were more vociferous than the friends of the banished General. In an official order issued by the Minister of War upon the occa sion, there is an assurance of the King 's attachment to the constitution, and a menace t hat his Majesty will punish every attempt that may be made against . it. Naples enjoys profound tranquillity. I ffie elections in the provinces have terminated; and in. general the best informed men, and particularly those of the literary class, have been returned The troops of the line amount to 60;000, which with the provincial militia will furnish an army of not less than .100,000 men. The accounts from Palermo, in these papers, are only to the 28th ult. The Junta had caused an account of the battle of Mount Babaurra, and the taking of Caltanisetta, to be published. Mount• Babaurra commands that town, and it was this post, first taken by the Pa lermitans, which was afterwards retaken by the inhabitants of Cultimisetta, who made use of surprise during a negotiation, and whilst conditions of capitulation were under consideration, proposed by the Dominican Father Anzalone, who had been sent from the town in quality of their spokesman. The conditions were-4st. The surrender at discre tion of the Intendant Gallego, of the President Tomminelli, and of Lieut.-Colonel Chitardi, who were considered as tie instigators of the revolt.- 2dly. The payment of 20,000 in 2 2 4 hours, but which sum was finally reduced to 16,000 ozs. The Journal d e Paris says, that a plot has been discovered at Messina, which, if it had succeeded, would have had a m'jst ruinous result tier that city. The Pakrmitans, by means of confederates which they bad in the place, were, it is said, to be intro duced by the conspirators at a fixed hour, to put all to fire and sword. It is added, that the most con siderable families in Messina are implicated, and that Princes, Barons, and Chevaliers, have been arrested and condemned to the citadel, to be instantly tried. Extract of a letter received on Satur? ty from Bombay, May 18 :—" We are sorry to state, that the cholera znorbus hus made its appearance in this Island, and was carrying from 6to 7(:0 rer clk,y ; THE NATIONAL REGISTER its diesidful ravages were not confined to the natives, but ;the Europeans were also falling vic tims to this dreadful malady. His Majesty's 47th and 16th regiments, which had returned from the expedition up the Persian Gulf, had but slightly felt it at the date of this letter. The greatest pre caution had been taken by the authorities: all Europeans not' belonging to the island were ordered to quit it, in consequence of which the mercantile interest bears a very gloomy appearance. Trude is at a complete stand—scarcely any cotton to be had ; and the Company's ships that had arrived were about leaving Bombay half.loaded with other car goes. Merchandise had experienced a great rise. Our news from the interior states some skirmishing had taken place at Rotulkund with the notorious Blujah Sing. The expedition to Palembang has greatly embarrassed the 'aiutherities Tit Java; the Government had determined to make another tempt, but is supposed that the, state of their tree miry would not admit of a fresh armament. The heavy duties levied on the produce of the country has completely annihilated foreign commerce, and American vessels that arrived at Batavia with specie, for the purpose of trading, had departed without any cargo. The Malay population of Java arc greatly discontented with their present.master, and are ready to join in any Way that may affect a change. The general opinion in Bombay, respect ing. the late expedition up the Persian Gulf, was very unfavourable, it having cost the Government an immense sum, and the inhabitants a great dual of anxiety. The Company's chips, FAO of Balca nes, Thames, Warren Hastings, Thomas,"Coutts,' and Free Indianian have arrived safe. The mon. soons were expected to set in earlier this season than at any former period; very unfavourable wea-_ tiler has been experienced for a long time." Extract of a letter from St. Helena. August 2, " Bonaparte is in good health, .but seldom walks abroad; and receives but little company." We received a Hatnburgh mail yesterday morn. ing, from which the following are extracts : VIENNA. SEPT:G.—The Fiche of Scutari is, according to the latest 'mounts, at Okritza, whither be was ordered by the Poch& of Rumelia : but he seems now rather inclined to mock back than obey the further orders be has received,. _abusing that- Montinegrms threaten the neighbouring Tuella peewees. :Ali Mehl' of Janina does not at. present move. butintrenched In his own territory, watches the motions of the army which have assembled in Ilitulia, under the totrunaned of the Paths of 'hop =ha; but it seems likely that this tranquillity will assn brt• interrupted by some counterpoise on the part of Ali Padia. ROME, Avo. 22. — We receive from 'mops quarters at the Roman states accounts of incredible damage done by • dreedlid hail-storm on the 16th instant. One account from Tivoli, of the 17th says—" After 100 uneom monly dry' ays, a heavy storm of hail fell yesterday, and ravaged the whole district for lo minute.. The greater part of the olive trees, vineyards, and gardens, were ruined. The damages done to the country is estimated at lao,ooo scudi, besides that done en the city, where almost all the windows were broken." Siroottrozst, SErr. &—His Majesty and the Crown nines will return here to-morrow. The Swedish Major Graanerorho embarked last year to open a new commercial communication between Chili and India through the Pacific Ocean, discover'd in the passage a group of islands that has not been noticed by any p.aviling navigator. The 3argest of these islands received the name of Oscar's Island. We have observed with bo.lle 'uprise in foreign papers an article iletn Stockholm, that the corn trade, which used to flourish, has this year declined to nothing.

" Thanks to th e'exertions of the. Provisional Junta, we enjoy tranquillity here, though business is entirely at a stand, and we have little or no intercourse with the inior. The - want of money, the sinews of war, was nee ex more inrangly felt, by . any government than this, which, at the commencynent of its Ittrie tions Mond a treasury wholly exhausted. A Rifted lean Was in consequence apprehended as one of its .r.trliest measures, and an intimation has at length .been effectually gives to that effect.— Tile sum required is 200,000 ounces (tou,OLOl. sterling), and all the foreign mercantile heats iu Paleraso are expected to contribute to it io proportion. To enable you to judge of the extent to which this is likely to affect them, I should add that two houses, the most eminent in the cite, arc called on to contribute tO,Otin ounces each ; and I know ar.uther house, whose . proportion is set down at 5,1100. The dreadful fate of Caltanisetta, has' intimidated into submission to the Provisional , Junta all the open tons and places of Sicily tacit under the ' hinnediate contmul or protection of a Nemailitan p - arrisont Messina. Trapani, with, as is believed, Catania anti Syracuse, still adhere to the old Government. A committee of go of the ' most eminent persons of this city is employed in the organization of a regency, the members of which are to be elected the represematives of all the COlll/11Uatli of Sicily. and by atom) a formal oath is to be taken to the Constitution of Spain, ai.d the independence of t•Sicilv. under a Royal Prince of the present clitia-tv of Naples. We are without any regular communication with Naples, and are in !Hue', anxiety concerning the deputies sent to treat for our independence, who have not returned, nor sent any despatches to the Pmvisional Covet nmen• The civic guard amounts to I5,00(1 men, and is embposal of itit",'Aid.tals from is to 53 y,...rs of age, including all ranks, from masters of sinus upwards to priests, friars, and the first nobility. An expeclilion was sent off some days it;;o for Syracuse, under the Chevalier Abets, but when on the rtnal, a party of the guerilla troops empl• veil on the occasion wi-hed to phonier. The com mander and cidicei.s temonqrated, but 10 no purpose : th;•:.• were attacked, and same of the officers wounded and s.ripped.

It has, during the recess, been newly decorated and most elegantly embel lished. The play , on Monday night was Romeo aud• Julia. The principal novelty was Miss Werwley, in the character of Toil young lady last season made her appearance in Comedy, and is se townie of great 'nowise. Ls 'the early scenes on 'Wormier night she perierined with muck graceful simplicity, and as site proceeded she manifested considerable feeling and sen- • sibility. The applause she received was !tittering is the. extreme, and she was exceedingly well supported by Mr. Charles Keinble, who is now the best Hasa on the • stage. The favourite Actors on their appearance were hailed with applause, as is customary, at the commence ment of the season particularly. '1 he interior of the theatre is beautiful, and the new' Chandelier. had an in. describable fine effect. On Wednesday night a Miss• Greene,. who had per.. - formed in Bath and Dublin with considerable sitcom , made her first appearance on these boards r as Polly in sh e Beggar's Opera. Sire is said to be the pupil of Mr.•, Bishop. Her reception on the p esent occasion w4s of the most fluttering character • and her performance. s eviuced abilities and powers Of much promise.

It is only jiratice to add, that Mr. limns in engaging dm , Corps de Ballet, was actuated by commisseration for the inconvenience they hall necessarily endured, front the premature closing of the Opera House. Another Military outrage.—On Monday evening, about 7 o'clock, an. affray took place in the principal street of Leeds, between a number of the military and the inhabitant*, which at one period threatened the most serious' consegtienees- • This Imo origi nated in a . privste, belonging to the 6th regiment of That (Which had just arrived from flulifax) seis ing an apple from a fruitatall, which invasion of private property being resented by the owner, a , .quarrel ensued, in which the military and the people took different sides. We regret to add, that soldiers made use of their aide axon, stud that-several persons were wounded, but none of them seriously. The alarm which was occasioned is not so be de scribed. The shops in that part of the town where it took place were immediately closed, and great apprehension were entertained for the result.
