and accordingly they immediately tendered their resignations, which were accepted. We cannot be surprised that such conduct on the part of the Rum shonld have strengthened still further the sentiment of distrust and jealousy which The mime of the people of Spain ssofortu nately entertain towards their Kt/to, and come. quently we find that the Royal Palace was quickly beset by a tumultuous rabble, who probably were but too well prepared for to/cry violeuce, and the capital during the latter pout of the first end the whole of the second day of this month laboured under the miserable effects of extreme popular agitation. The advocates for arbitrary power in this country of course attribute all these evils to the revolution and the friends of reform ! Wretched ►lmes ! not to the revolution, bat to those who strive so counteract the friends of freedom, are the suf ferings of, Spain to be attributed. Had Feint- NAND continued to act as be was thought to have begun, and evinced • sincere and honest disposi tion to maintain the Constitution which he had sworn to protect ; bad he spurned the sinister ad vice of these who whispered to him the hope of again establishing his lost authority, of trampling upon the rights, and despising the wishes of his subjects, he had not lost the affection and confi dence of his subjects, he might now walk in the midst of his capital, surrounded as he used to be during the early days of the revolution by the ardent prayers and benedictions of its inhabitants, instead of bring confined to hie palace by the dread of an exasperated populace, or uttering his complaints to the Cortes with the angry petulance of • dia•ppoioted man against the projects of the dissffectrd, the credulity and enmity of his people, and the traitorous indifference of his Ministers and constitutional defender.. We do not dread any violent commotion in Spain, but we think that the KING would be silly and wicked enough to throw himself into the arms of soy faction that would reek to restore the ancient despotism. From the ev il s of *civil war, the wiadom, firmness, and cau tion of the Cortes, aided by the good sense of the people, will preserve their country; but should any tAdamity befal the Kix°, we are convinced that he will owe it to his own obstinacy and folly.

Before the curtain drew up, Mr. Humid. addressed the audience in a very neat speech, in which he stated that every means had been taken that the short new of the time would allow, to apprise the public of the inability of Miss WILSON to at tend, in consequence of severe indisposition. He, therefore, hoped that the audience would grunt the same indulgence to Miss POTEY, who bad under taken the part of Rosetta, which in their generosity had been emended to others on similar occastons. The curtain then rose and presented Miss POVEY in the character of Rosetta, and Miss Custrr in that of Lociada. The announcement of MtosWiLson's absence evidently damped the spirit of an elegant and crowded audience; but the opening air of Mims POVIT did much to dispel the gloom, and this very interesting young Lady acquitted herself so well in the progress of the piece, the audience had nearly forgotten their disappointment before the fall of the curtain. She received great applause. Some of her songs were encored, which was scarcely fair in relsoion to the circumstances under which she presented herself. We do not think the voice of Mr. KRAUSS' was ever more rich, mellow, and ex. pressive, than it appeared last night in Hawthorn. Mrs. filseLowe, Mr. MUNDILII,aud Mr. KNIGHT, were admirable in their respective characters. The vela was succeeded by (he popular drama entitled Therese, in which Mr. COOPER and Mr. POPE were very impressive and effective. The part of the former is one of considerable capability, and Mr. COOPER cultivated it to great advantage. His declamation was full of energy and expression. Miss Smernson looked and played the iiinocea persecuted Annette with great propriety and feeling. We see with great pleasure that Sir GEORGE &EMIT will resume his performances of Sacred Music this evening at Drury-lane Theatre. The arrangements are of that high class to which the public, under Sir Gut:times direction, has in variably been accustomed; and we perceive that Mrs. BaLLCHAMBSILS, the finest mezzo soprano singer of the present day. will make her debut among the valuable talent with which these Oruro- sion are enriched. Madame FODOR is said to be in the last stage of ■ decline at Paris, chiefly caused through taking large guy:Attie. of vinegar to reduce her shape. A letter from Glasgow, dated March 8, says,— " The Theatre, last night, was a complete scene of confusion, dissatisfaction and dismay. Masque rades appear to be very ill suited to the taste of the inhabitants. Every one goes to hear and see and none to act or speak. So much was this the case last night, that the audience (very numinous we un derstand), had, wish the excepsion of two songs, and the antiques of a harlequin, sin oilier amusement than crying out against the managers or fighting with inch other. The whole was accounted a com plete Wax ; ■nd corasige skins, capper coin, pieces of wood and plaster, and every thing that could be laid hold of in the may of missile, were thrown upon the stages—The ladies retired from the boxes at an early hour. The 'whet ultimately made their ap pearance on account of some boxing that took place; and, after all the lights were put out but the variegated lamps, the company retired completely disappointed a n d disgusted with the whole affair." There is a Bill flow before Parliament for re. pealing the Act of ELIZAIIFTH against witchcraft m i l d sorcery in Ireland. ! / urn the hoy for bewitching Meat!" The nuptials of JOHN WYN NE, Esq. with Miss AN N FRY, of Stroud, in Kent, were celebrated last week at that Gentleman's seat iu North Wales with great rejoicing.. About one hundred of the prillt ipal trionits dined in a spacious booth erected lOr the purpose. Four fine sheep were masted whole by an immense large bonfire for the populace, and distributed to them with plenty of old ale, and the surrounding hills and vallies responded with the feeling of the joyous sremblage. ~. )Fitelfklat 4NI &DAS. Vesterility a meeting of Mowerd sod Gibbs' ere. (Mora las held M the Court of Commett Guildhall. The court was as - crowded am •art the loaner ;meting*. mud several creditors printed their debts. The Commissioners, in all those cases, decided, that where a settleinent of aucteauts had taken piney leiWeett the haukrupis and the anouitints who had beim credited iu their books foratinuitiesdae, though sot received. and the bankrupts had pied the ba lance due on such seitlement, that then the GUMS so credited should not be deducted out of the ha. litotes upw due by the bankrupts ; but where the creditors had siot received payment of SI balance due on a subsequent settlement of accounts, they were not allowed to claim on the bankrupt's estate for the sums for which they had been credited in their bookti, but which had not been received by them. Mr. Courteois presented an unpaid acceptance of the baukrupte for 400/. for which ainouut he claimed. Mr. MONTAGTA, as Counsel for the bankrupts, examined hint as to the consideration he had given for this bill. Mr. Courteoia said he had re ceived it as a 'Tomtit of the bankrupts' accept. once to a bill drawn on them by the Marquis of Worcester, which he had malted for Mr. Gibbs. Being asked what discount he had received from Mr. Gibbs fur cashing the bill, he said he could not recollect; he was asked was it 301. end denied that it was ; lie was then asked was it 251., he would not say that it wits not; he would not say it was not 281.; nor that it was unt 291. Mr. Mon tague here remarked that though lie lid an un. questionable witness in Court, tie person who had paid the money, to prove that the discount taken was 301., yet he would not differ with Mr. Cour teois for a pound. Mr. Courteuie, in explanation, said, that at the time he gave Mr. Gibbs cash fur the bill, he told him he could not do it unless he, Gibbs, would lend him 30f. which he wanted to make up a payment ; that Mr. Gibbs agreed, aid after receiving the amount of the bill, for which no discount was charged, he then lent Mr. Courteoia 30/. which sum Mr. Courteois now said he always consideied as a debt, and meant to pay. Mr. Gibbs was sworn, and declared positively that lie had agreed with Mr. Courteoia to discount the bill for 30/. which sum he had given him at the time the bill was discounted, and never consi dered Mr. Courteois a debtor for it. The Commissioners told Mr. Courteois he must go somewhere else, and with such a claim it was useless to make it there. After receiving same further proofs of debts, the meeting was adjourned. We lately uoticed the case of a military officer who her got into a scrape for giving. toast. It was not a radical toast. The toast was " The Qat,:a." We understand it is not likely to pass without ob. nervation in • certain quarter. A private letter from. the West Indies, mentions the death of Colonel etAnze of the fifth regiment of foot. He was the oldest man in the regiment. The Marine Corps is to be equipped with a new uniform, and a cap instead of a hat. Extraordinary Trotting Match.—Lately Capt. A—, R.N. and J.

Our limits will only allow us to make a short ex tract, which, independent of Its intrinsic Merit, possesses peculiar interest at this moment, when the people whom it celebrates are hailing the dawn of political emancipation. It is the conclusion of an article on a very early trasalation of TASIO, by CAasw , a work which many of our readers may not even have heard of, but which possesses no urdivary share of spirit and fidelity. " We have been induced to notice this early translation of one of Italy's moat hrilliant productions, as our honest Printer expresses it in his preface, for the delight and be nefit of theme Gentlemen who love that most lively laugusee. and from a conviction that the treasures and sweets of netball literature were never better appreciated film) at the present day. The very name of that delicious land teems with a thousand rich aesociaisuas.

To the enthusiast of nature it is the very Eden of his hopes, and he acknowledges how very justly the appellat is applied, as his eye wanders over the Campogna I efirst. Tu the scholar, Italy is a world of treasures, richer than all the East ever poured forth, but in nu heart is the name echoed with more fondues. than in that of the poet. To him it reeals a thousand lofty names, a thussoid faseisating images of beauty and power, it is linked to hi* spirit by the tende rest@ and the finest associations.

Colonel Sibthovp, we are happy to say, was on Tuesday proosieneed by his 'medical attendants to be out of danger, and they have sow every hope of bail perfect recovery. Mrs. H. Sibthorp is ale, progressively recovering from her revere bruises. Nothing bas transpired at present to lead to a satisfactory elucidation of the unfortunate af. fair. The man who found the finch-pin on the eight of the misfortisse was examined before the Magisirstes on Friday.

Although some mystery yet rearming irpon the evidence, the man was fully exonerated from any guilty participation iu the bashing. Cul.Sibiliorp considers the whole affair as purely areidental ; several circumstances,bowever, which had previously occurred, prevent so desirable • conclusion in the meads of mar is, that • leech-pin was certainly taken out about three numbs ago; another, that the coachman not only examined the carriage before be lift Cauwick, but actually put sin fas teners through the eye of every liitch•pis, and the distance travelled to Lincoln did nut exceed three miles. A third circumstance is, that on the preceding Thursday three men were overheard threatening Colonel :Obi horp, " Here comes the d—d carrisge," said one of them; " there is nobody but ladies to it—let us wait till lie is in it, and when we do it we will do it effectually!"— This necessarily leaves an impression that there really are persons so deprived as to be guilty of such an atrocious set. On the aright of the overthrow, the coachman having art the ladies down at Dr. Cookson's, went to the White Hart fur the Colonel, oh t dressed there.
