The letter proceeds to detail circumstances, which, although it is i‘ripussible to doubt, we do ! not titiirk proivr to publish. We are taught to believe in this country, that the conduct of toe Froicli armies is pre eminently fio;;raat---but the truth is, that all armies commit atrimitLs—arb::rary power naturally product* tyranny. What 0111 be. ex pected from a .0 t. ty of Soldiers, headed by, perhaps, an inexpesienced man ?—thiy conic to a farm-house, or village, and expect from the inhabitants obediunee, as vrampt and implicit, as is enforced in the ranks—the inhabitants remon strate and the military take lire at their hesitation it obeying—a dispute arises, which at last terminates in the application of fusee. And, if the passions of the pities happen to have been greatly iiillain. cd, violence 'Ai the persons of the inhabitants na turally follows. '.i.liese are the invariable con ' comitavits of wlr. That Army w hack is best dis ciplined will obvitiusly coarnit thu fewest out. raizea ; but Ciere never yet wan an army that did not commit wirage, and the. attach . nent of Bri tish troops to liquor, dues not by any means, tend to diminish their disposition to disorder, when they get to a distance from the main body of the army. The treatment of our Officers by the French, 1 described in this letter, we know to be true ; we • know it from the narrative of one of the indivi ilunlis who was at Talavera* when the French en. tered it, after the retreat of Lord ELLI Norom. Many of our wounded were, on the afternoon of the day when the French Commander entered the place, removed by French Soldiers front miserable palliasses on the floor, to beds and com fortable apartments. The treatment of our woundstl by the French, was such as odor. i ornate str.ingers wolittl have received in this ; Island. Many of the F r e nch Officers, and some ._vets of rank, passed several nights out of . betl-- for, mail the wounded 13ritish were accommodated no French OfEzzr 'hewed even a disposition to be so. We have dwelt upon these circninstat*es, front as aseious desire, that the darkness of the night o f prejudice, which intatites two helve people against each other, should be dispelled. Why should the people of Eit4land, and of France, the two must intelligent, sod civilised nations in the world, be taught to view each other as savages ? By what reuniting can the conduct of the "me% army at Talavera, be reconciled whit the , weenie that have been recently published in this r eituelfh treat:out of oar pr6iillert COVENT' GARDEN TUJEATRE. The lofty hopes of the Proprietors, being dis appointed, by the obstinacy of the Jury, on Tuesday, their passion has subsided into gloomy, stlent malignity. Either, the public are to be sub. lined, or the bauble is not worth possessing, even thougliit could be Anon, that the golden pros pect, might accompany the ellerence of the Pro prietors, to the public voice. We are led into this reflection, by a whil&tl incident, that occurred eon-ethic:day, at tile liVot. kinravern,in Broad.court, Bow.street, where r. J. Brandon, conversing on the subject of the Thu. tre, exclaimed, " I wish the Audience mould 66 pull the 77testre to pieces, that we .. gkt u: 44 come upon the Panty for Damages, was it seems the opinion, for we state it only u an opinion delivered in the freedom of conversation, of Mr. James Brandon. — Whether such a mode of 'stain the unprofitable 6i per cent. account would be satialfactory to the Proprietors, we have not the means dly judging—lt would, doubtless, be most summary ; but the county might, perhaps, object to the admission of the memorable report on that subject, as evidence. We du, howeeer, most sincerely hope, that the Public will, by nu provocation, hosteler great, be misled into the commission of damage upon any part of the property of the house. That attempts have been made, and will, with great art, con. tinueto belittle, to entrap the Public into the coin mission of some such violence, we have many sub stantial reasons for believing. Mr. Serjeaut Shep herd and other learned men were at the Theatre after the trial—and In the cuurse of the evening, a piece of one of the benches in the Pit, being thrown nn the stage and shorn to the men of law, great satisfaction was expressed, and the rail: was directed to be must carefully preseri ed. There seemed to be not loss importance attached to this fragment, than is, by some Catholics, to a piece of the true cruss...ur tar holy phial at Naples, which contains the blood of St. Januarius. Possibly, the Learned Serjeant, imitating orators of Greece and Rome, may, on the nest trial, suddenly pro. duce this valuable relic from beneath his gown, to the astonished J airy. The Proprietors are now wailing, in the hope of laying hold of some indisidual %olio limy be I retrapped into the calends:ion of sonic stricquiJucal et. On such individual will their veisgeanee be %break et I . This fragment," the halfpenny and penny piece!,—and the peas thrown upon the Stage, are all very suspicious circumstances. — \V hest the Fragment was thrown upon the Stage, s..ven of the scats in the Pit, nearest to the Orchestra, were filled by the usual stnffina, —and the probability is, that as well this 'regi ment, as the peas and the halflaince, were thrown from some of those benches. The dis. meets from the centre. of the Pit is such, that they could not come from thence...—o—T lie peas and the halfpence, were throeu on the evening of Mr. Brandon's opinion deliveredt as at the ;Frain. As to the Iseed.bill, weigh safely have offered twenty thoutaral as tennis getups. reward, for discoveries the author of the pea tactics. Wu have heard. and we believe, that the receipt of Tuesday has, with much Wastrel exultation, been stated at tib01...." Sony, Sir, money Derider staling !" Now, admitting this to be the truth, what may the House be supposed to contain were the public fairly admitted...and what might be the profit of the Proprietors even at Ohl Priem We cannot here refrain from ob. I levying, that if the sum of WI. was tabu—the factious few, are tolerably numerous...and let it out be forgotten, that on Tuesday evening the disapprobation was univeraal...it was lewdly es. pressed from every part of the Nouse, and, per. haps by every pursuit in the House, who bad paid fur admission.

Until that tu n e it swab peaceable, with the excep tion of a Gentleman in the l'at, who was eels dently its a state of intoxication. He was taken out without disturbance, but was not afterwards detained. From the third act of The Woodman nothing was distinctly heard, either (rum the Stagc,ur from the orchestra, during the performance of Dan Juan. Night-caps, Welch wigs, and placartV were numerous in the Pat. 0. P.'s were seen in every part of the House, to which the Public arc permitted to have access. The laud ts inkling of a horn by a Gentleman in the Bates was im mediately answered by one Irons the Pit— This soon produced the accompaniment of a rattle, which, together with this rood efforts of the company, made up the complete haroony of a full concert. The company in the I'it were in constant motion, from centre to bank, from flout to rear. A usoveinent was made by the myr. miduns to silence the "merry-toned horn" in the Pit ; but the phalanx by which the performer was surrounded, rendered a grab impracticable. The attempt was considered' not only desperate, but hopeless ; and it was geuerally admitted by the °dicers, that the 0. P.'s " mode d—te'd good fight !" At the conclusion of Don Juan, the cheers and groans were in•bre weinerues than usual. 'foe ho nest Counsellor, bis honest Defenders, and the ho. neat Jury, were loudly cheered. But these mark., of pubtic approbation were nut extended to the Judge, the defendant, his Coonsrl, or the Pro prietors. In the avenues leading to the Pit door, there was a great assemblage of spectators, of whom • large nembcr wore 0. P. A coasiderable space •as left vacant, through which polsolis were per mitted to pass, but not without a few frolicksonte pushes from the surrounding performers. The House was cleared before detest o'clock, and the company 'frontal without tumult, to the great disappoistoteat of the Professor's hopes and ezpoetatioas. _ Mr. noon bums has been returned for Ross. shire, after a warn contest, in which the solidi.
