and hesitate between official, and the incre- Ing in such a manner an 'Otranto. the wisdom of a Jury terminate his life now. by what law of nations so forget him and her st If as to consent to such an act : and which of the CunfederaleNations can claim or exereise,consisteut ly with justice, policy, or humanity, any such power user that most illustrious of living men ; and to whom no name of antiquity ss ill be found superior ? If he has surrendered, nothing can be more idle, to say the least, than to ascribe such an act of such a man to personal fear. If he has surrendered, it has been to sa►e France, after the submission of all her armies, from ravage and dismemberment. What a Jury of Kings may do is not within my comprehension, nor, perhaps, their own. I can senture, however, thus far to surmise, that it would be any thing rather than wisdom, that a King should die, or be imprisoned by the stfifrage of Kings. Such a precedent it were ill for them to make.—" To be treated with all honour as a King should treat a King," was the reply of Fortes, and the conduct of ALEXANDER: and thus bas BONAPARTE acted. What a Jury of soldiers, of wen, especially of Englishmen, would do, I trust I can comprehend : -regard him as no longer an adver sary, but an illustrious Foreigner, who has confided himself to the British Government, and to the justice and generous sympathies of the British nation, upon whom we can have no sentence to pass or pu nishment to Inflict; and whom we cannot, without indelible reproach, deliver over to his enemies, if he has enemies among the Confederate Powers, were they to demand it. Not that the Captain of a pettish man of war, or an Admiral, or a General, could stipulate more than what is implied in the generosity and discipline of a British Nary and Army, that he should suffer nothing while with them ; but because reason and justice, national and natural right, de mand for him, under all the circumstances, that he shall suffer nothing from any Power upon earth, but should have every testimony of respect, and all means of honourable comfort, of study, and of health.

The following Regulations are now issued in an ifficist Order from the War Office, signed Palmer ton, viz.-- 1. The pay of Staff or Garrison Officers at home to be issued under the same rules as at present, iz. for Medical Officers monthly ; for other Staff )fficers, and for Garrison Officers, every three Inuths. But if it should be thought proper to order the issue of an advance of pay for Staff Officers on embarking for foreign service, the advatice shall be regulated according to the following Rules : For liatiot;s to the Eastward of the Cape of Good Hope mcept New South Wales) six months' pay. For :ew South Waies, such advance of pay as may be necessary, not exceeding 12 months. For the Cape of Good (lope and the Coast of Africa, three months. For America, the West Indies, Spain, Portugal, Ind the Mediterranean, three months. 2. Stafror Garrison Officers obtaining leave of ab- I 'rice from foreign stations, are aot to be allowed .e pay (:f their Staff of CanisOn sitliatir. , n:i for the . . erit;trof such leave, unless it shall be shown by a certificate from tke Commanding Officer on the sta ion, that the duty of their a pp o i n t men ts h as be en ruvided for during their absence, and that no addi. Iona! expellee has been or be incurred by the •u!,lic in consequence thereof. The leaves of absence !anted on foreign stations to Stair or Garrison Cfii- •ers returning home, are to be laid before the Corn ..amler.in-Chief, for the purpose of being confirmed if thought proper, immediately upon the arrival of ;ucli Officer in this country. _ 3. Several doubts having arisen whether Officers of the Ordnance, when employed upon the Staff, should receive the pay of their Staff appointments through, lhe Ordnance Paymaster, or through the Paymaster Ceneral of the Forces, or his Deputies, his Royal 'flightless the Prince Regent has been pleased to coin viand, that such Staff Officers shall in alt cases be paid through the Ordnance Paymasters, except when they are employed solely on the General Staff of the Army in the charge of the Troops of the Line, in a hick case they are to be placed precisely on the same Tooting, in regard to pay and allowances, as the Officers of the General Staff, reports thereof being made to the Board of Ordnauce by the General Officer commanding the Station. The Duke of WILLLINGTOY is regarded by all parties in France as the Saviour of Paris. His po pularity is almost equal to the unpopularity of BLuctica. The latter is very naturally the hero of the Ex-Anarchist of the time, and of all those who anticipate with delight the conflagration of capitals, ttrd publish lists of women to be proscribed. At the City and County of Limerick Assizes there were fourteen prisoners to be tried for murder, three for wounding with an attempt to kill, and twenty nine for assembling by night and Bogging. The Coachman who got the share of the Twenty Thousand Pound Prize, sold at Richardson aod Co.'s list week, says, he clever drove a fair who tipped m haudsomely as Madam Fortve. ; fliE §tAtOSMAM HertfintlCET THEATRE. MR. MEGGETTS SECOND APPIAt%NCE; The efforts of malice and Ignorance to keep down rising merit, are attended, not unfrequently, ith effects totally different frcm those ss hich, at the first view, might be expected to arise from them. This fact is exemplified, in a very strik ing manner, by the scene which was last night ex hibited at this Theatre. Mr. fileuerrr, whose cruet and illiberal treatment by a party, we were, last week, unwillingly obliged to detail, made his second appearance h. fare a Landau audience in a new character. had the public Press, to which,. both in a moral and p: ideal point of view, this country owes so much, been silent on the occw,ion of Mr. Mr:Gunes former appearance—or had it been contented with a mere statement of the con duct of a portion of the audience, without boldly expressing its disapprobatien of that conduct—it is probable that Mr. Al euGe-rr would not again hate presented himself tole re the public, and that the triumph of his enemi..s aonld have been complete. But tI•P severe strict ores w hich the tin wairantable proceedings of his persecutors, on NVed nesday night last, elicited—proceedings, doubly unwarrantable, as the victim was a stranger and a man of ability—taught Mr. 54 FGGETT to hope, all the circumstances of his case being known, that the justice and honour of a discriminating audience would repair the injury he had sustained from the prejudice, comparatively ape IL ing, of a few. He acted wisely—and, however his feelings might have suffered, amidst the uproar by which his performance of Richard et as marred, he may reckon himself in debted, in a considerable degree, to the unfair op positien which that performance occasioned, for the curiosity which his oday/4n (the character in which he chose to make his sec%i(l uppearatice) escited in the theatrical woild—and for the deep attention which was paid to all his scenes. • Mr. MEctiETT'S faults are those which a little time and attention to the taste of a London audience will soon correct—they are the common faults of theatrical candidates fresh from the country. But these faults were, however, nobly redeemed by the general correctness, feeling, and energy of his per. formauce. The attention and the applause of the audience encouraged him to develop his powers, and the result more than justified the experiment. In every scene there was something to praise; and in the most difficult of all, he was pre-eminently suc cessful. The abstraction of mind, and the wild ness of the character he depicted:with great felicity. His exultation in the Goatherd's distress, when in-' formed by the iatter of his daughter having left him, I was very eff,ctive, and the manner in which this was 1. personally es presSrd gate the liveliest representation of the bewildered Oclarian. His inability to recognise Roque when he first accosts him, and thegradual opera tion of slow-returvioe tremors, w hich at tenth makes him known, was pow et fully Nei skillfully marked. His emo;ion on beholdiog rloranthe, the various sensations which wring his heart, and which finally resolve them selves into extatie jos., were faithfully pictured in their' progress and in their termination. this fury when he discovers Bukazio about to destiny Soroyda was perhaps, of al!, the happiest moment of his perform. • anee. The impetuosity of his manlier, while snatch. big the scymeter, and throwing his opponent to the! earth, gave the business of the scene an air of reality which it has not often received. Acting wholly from feeling, his eye, his attitude, his voice, his gesture, - were all in unison, and we had nothing to regret.— 7 The audience, liberal of their plaudits throughout, here requited his exettions, with repeated shouts of • " bravo !" RUSSELL, in Satli, contributed greatly to the en tertainment of ittu evening. Xi[mattock and Balcazin Maley were respectably sustained by Mr. LINDSAY and Mr. Foote. Miss GREVILLE gave general sa tisfaction iu Floraullte, thottAb this is not one of the Characters best suited to her talents. Miss MATlttvis •and Mrs. HAY*OOo obtained considerable applause as Agnes and Zorayda. The play altogether went off very well, and was announced for Thursday, amidst the shouts of the audience. Yesterday morning the 14th Regiment of Light Dragoons had a grand field day on Hounslow-heath. A singular occurence took place at the Admiralty, soon after 12 o'clock, yesterday. Upwards of 200 seamen, who have been discharged from the navy, attended at that office in procession, with the Union Jack, and a clarionet playing God rare the King.— They had a Petition to present to their Lordships, of the distress in which they are plunged from the con duct of severs) persons employing foreign seamen in merchant ships, at a lass rate of wages. Every at tention was shown to these defenders of the country, and a deputation was sent for by the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty, who, it seems, recommend ed them to remonstrate with the persons by whom they are aggrieved, and that they had no doubt hut, if proper means were resorted to, the foreign seamen would he removed. The mon were satisfied with this answer, and, giving three hearty cheers, retired very peaceably. SAILING AI vrcu.—The lo►ers of aquatic sports were highly gratified yesterday, by one of the best. contested Sailing Matches we ever have witnessed for the silver cup and cover given annually by the Pro prietors of Vauxhall-Gardens. The number of spec tators on this occasion was bey ond any thing in our recollection. At ten minutes to three the four fol lowing pleasure sailing-boats started from Black friars'-bridge, each boat being distinguished by a white flag, with as many red spots as corresponded with the number against each of their names : N 1.

The Ludtow took the lead at starting, and kept it during the whole of the contest : she passed round the boat off Putney-bridge some time before the rest, and afterwards ieturned to a boat moored off Cum berland-ga-dens, where she was declared the winner. The Camilla arrived in about five minutes after—th_ other t u did not come in.
