In the distant parishes, unvisited by public characters, the inhabitants appear no strangers either to the animation of puhlic spirit, or to the power uf giving that spirit its proper expression. We have been much grrtitied in recording former instinces of th o‘e displays: and have equal pleasure in rrferri”g to an account in our paper to-d-ty of a reveat .le::iut• of the Parishioners of St. John, Ilorseleydown. .1 he speeches of Mr. &Acta and others are manly, plain, and spirited. Her Majesty the Queen will receive the Address of the inhAbivatits of the Parish of St. Pancras. in the City of Chichester, on Tuesday next. It is ealrnlated that there are not more than •lay :dolt male inhabi tants in this Parish, upwards of - 210 of whom have signed the Address. An united .‘ddress from several other Parishes in that city is rapidly receiving sig natures. The King's friends, as they call themselves, are striv ing to treat his Majesty, during his marine excnrsions. with addresses from the several ports at which be touches in the Isle of Wight, and on the coast of Hampshire. Besides the Addresses from Cowes, and Portsmouth. he has received one from Hyde, and was to have ethers yesterday from Gosport and Portsea. His 31ajesty was expected to go on shore at Portsmouth yesterday, to review the first regiment of Guards, and to set of fur ton n in the afternoon. The following is an extract of a letter, dated Gibral tar. Sept. 7:- By advice to-day from Tangi►r, it appears that an Al gerine squadron. con,isting of tuo corvettes and a schooner, passed these Straits to the Westward. on the 4th instant. A corvette of t'.4 guns stood into Tangier, but immediately rejoined the ctliers, and made sail. Yesterday was herd at Winclister. a numerous and respectable meeting of the inhabitants, for the purpose of considering an address to the Queen, to express their concern on account of the persecution with which her Majesty has been pursued, and their admiration at the magnanimity which her Majesty bas ►xhibited and also to testify their indignation at the form of the pro ceeding against her Majesty, by a Bill of Pains and Pe nalties, an attempt to violate through the person of her Majesty, the genuine principles of British Jurispro. dace. _ As some contradiction has prevailed in the state ments received from Portugal, regarding Count Ama rante, we think it proper to state, that a private letter, dated Oporto, 13th inst. mentions that the troop' and province he commanded bad enthusiastically joined the patriotic cause, hat be himself bad fled away. On the 6th, seeing it impossible to withstand the force of public opinion, the Count ordered a meeting of the in habitants for the following day, in order to take the new oaths ; but in the night he fled away with oat servant, passed through Monis, and, it is added. he had already arrived at Cseenna.

THE AUTHOR OF THE SCOTCH NOVELS. -~- [Front Ow., end NOUTIIIIOCSI . 4 London Maga:bit tur October.] In the Metnoirsof Sir Walter Scott, Bart., contained in our 9th number, we stated that we were in posses sion of facts which justified us in asserting, that the admirable Works of Imagination, under this title, wet... not from the pen of that distinguished u titer. We then said :-- `• lit hazarding this bold assertion, we know and feel the responsibility we have rolniitarily incurred.
