Ow* - ; in Berlin ; which lastly, by Winer . , have entered that city on tha 23d or 24th. The American news, which have given another place, will explain *hence arose of the defection ,of certain Eastern States system against England. The Embargo Bill, recommended by an Address from the Paoli the Rouse of Representatives, where it majority of 30, was, nevertheless, thrown the Senate, 18 to 10. The report of the recapture of the frigate appears to have had no foundation. The LORD MAYOR, highly to his credit, his examinations publicly of the bakers f a ctoring dealers in flour; and has pledged that if they persist in their present plant, ship will, next week, fix the assize of bread average price of wheat. The Rooney of Spain have appointed . SUMO Minister Plenipotentiary to the Court of Prussia. A Morning Papejr says, that a Coed-martial be held on Sir J. MURRAY, at Gibraltar. The march of the Guards has been cou:.__ for the present, and the Coldstream resumed their duty. Regimental depots for the battalions at Stralsund bare beets established on the Eastern coast for the 25th and 54th at Woodbridge; for the , 234 and list at Colchester ; and for the Royal ticots at Mapelborgh. 'the 3d regiment of light dragoons of the Kate's German legion is likewise with these bat talions. The allowance granted to the Serjeant-Majors of Volunteer and Yoomanry corps of Civalry l for the keep of a horse, has been increased to two shillings per diem from the 2bth of March last.. It has been its agitation to supply the whole army with a different description of scabbards for the bayonet (instead of those now its use); but so far as the innovation has extended, it has been much dis countenanced. Downs. A cutter, supposed to be the Olympia, went past to the Downs ; with the Lou of her bow sprit. PRIVATEERk OFF BRIGHTON. BRIGHTON Sur. 6;, Between four and five ,o'clock this afternoon, we witnessed from the clitts here,, the appearance of two of the enemy's priva teers in the southaeast, and where they shortly after were seen to attack and board a merchant vessel of large dimensions, and subsequently to stand fn r the opposite shore with their prize. The ship fired two or three guns as the enemy approached, but her tesist• ante seemed to be completely Ineffectual. DEAL, Sirr. 6.—Arrlygd the Swedish ship Stock holm, from St. Übe's,' laden with , salt for Stock. holm, parted in the Downs this morning from two anchors and cables ; she let go two more, and rides alt well. The Glamorgan victualling transport parted from two anchors and cables, and immediately let io another, and rides all well. A schooner parted from her anchor and cable, particulars 1 could not learn. Remain his Majesty's *hips, and the list of the out ward bound merchanzumt,and transports as per last. Arrived the Argus Diet pilot cutter from a long cruise to the westward. The leading Orange Paper of Dublin has published the following paragraph : " The manly and decided opinion of Judge DALY, ih- , 1 the Orange processions -were perfectly legal, and that it was an outrageous breach of the peace to as sault men peaceably proceeding through the pnblic ways to church or elsewhere, has stunned the Po pish Demagogues, while it has confirmed the loyal Protestants in their loyalty and attachment to the good cause of their Constitution, King, and coun try." This is Judge DALY'S opinion, according to the statement of the Dublin Journal. It may be of vast importance to the Orangemen—but the Act of Parlia ment is of greater consequence to us. And what does the Act say : In 15 and 16 Geo. 111. chap. 21, we find it set down :—" That if any person wearing any particu lar badge, dress, or uniform, not usually worn by him on his lawful occasions, or assuming any particu lar name or denomination not usually assumed by his Majesty's subjects upon their lawful occasions, shall rise, assemble, or appear by Day or by Night to the terror of his Majesty's subjects, such offeuder shall be guilty of a moil MISDEMEANOUR," &c. The enemy's ships at Cherburgh manifested an ex tr-qdinary cle4ree of joy on the 27th, 28th, and 29 . h ult. by Ii tag salutes, disp!aying colours, and fottning several evolutions.--It was supposed to tin in cu plim ,, nt to the Empaess, the French papers hating lately stated that she had left Paris on a visit to that pert, and arrived on the 25th. 0.. r blockad ing squadron, cattsisting of the Egmont, 71, Capt. Et von tm; Danmark, 71, Capt. BAKER; Medusa, Belt.; Earotas, Capt. PIIILLIMORE ; and the DC l'irt at, Copt. SUTTON'; were witnesses of their joy; end, in compliment to their zeal nod bravery, the Frenchmen did not venture beyond the buoys of their own harbour. The enemy's force continue.; the same, namely, two sail of the line, two frigates, two cor vettes, and two frigate-built armed store-ships.— They have evidently more men than they had a few weeks since; but the inexpertness of their movements indicate the bad quality of them for purposes of na vigation. Among the rumours circulated as received on pri. vote authority from the French coast, one of the most extraordinary, although we fen r not the authen tic or credible, states, that the Empress MARIA Louisa, conceiving that her removal from . the Re gency, and her consignment to nn honourable exile, were the real objects of the mandate of Narotcort, ordering her to proceed to Cherhurgh, to preside at the ceremony of opening the new port at that place, :had suddenly changed her route, after proceeding to TO THE EDITOR. a certain distance from Paris, and hastened to pareffraph islipeared in your Paper Boulogne for the purpose of escaping across the! of Saturday last,'stating, that the premises of Mr. Channel, to place herself under British protection !

The stage has ;lean widened, its shape somewhat altered, and the motto which surrnounted•thskatage of the late Theatre again meets the eye—" Velmliift Speculum." Loud and rapturous - shouts of approbation imme. dletely followed the admission of the pUblic. The audience seemed to consider themselves assembled to witness the opening of a new Theatre, and truly the scene around considered, such a conceit was not ir rational. When the curtain rose, the whole of the Carps Dramatique came forwarti and sung " God *are the friag," and " Rule Britannia. These were received with the accustomed demonstrations of loyalty, and feelings of national pride and exultation. The Play was John Bull ; it was exceedingly welt 'performed throughout. A Mr. POWICUS made his second appearance on this-start, iw the character of Denis Brulgrudtkry. He is 'Athetest substitute for JOIINSTONR we have seen. .Ills delineation of the character was marked by good sense and strong hu mour throughout. In some psrts he much resem bled the original representafiwei of Denir, but no thing like a servile imitation marred his performance. He more than once ventured on a new reading, and in doing so, he was several times eminently success. ful. Upon the.whole, he afforded us, in common with the audience, much gratification, and we hare little doubt of his proving an important acquisition to the London boarde. In other respects, the cast of the play was most materially changed on this -occasion. This comedy, which, by its distinguished merits, has been made -a , stock piece, is one which wozannet see bat with pr. culiar interest and pleasure. We cannot forget the constellation - of talent which gin wit eeist . *hen - ft was first performed. While its sepreaentation re fracts the mirth which it produced ten years age, thi mind is naturally led to contemplate the changes which have taken place within that period. Contem plating the original and undiminished excellence of Fawcrer, of EMERY, and Of BLAIICUARD, in Job Thornberry, Dan, and Sir Simon, we could al- , most fancy time has retrograded. We start to look for COOKE in Peregrine, for Lewis in Shultelon.— The grave has closed over them for ever, and we find in their plaCes EGERTON and Jones. The comparison this leads us ta make is certainly' not to the advantage of those we have last named ; but let us not be supposed to raise the ghost of de parted genius, to blast living merit. . kis bet justice to both to say, they well sustained , their purls: We are always disposed to quarrets wiktlt the appearance, of Peregrine. We have never yet seen him look any thing like so old ns his younger brother Sir Simon. It may indeed be necessary that Peregrine should possess more vigour than the law of the draMe (the practice at least) can allow to a Justice of the Peace, who must of liece.-sity be somewhat crippled by age. The strength of Peregrine, however, might remain to him, but it is not quite necessary that he should bring with him from .India that blooming youthful complexion which Mr. EGUTOM, and most of the Peregrines we have seen, never fail to exhibit. This is not what we might sweet to see in the son , burnt voyager from India. ~ Peregrine ought cer tainly to have the -appearance of a Gentleman, but as be has been shipwrecked, mid obliged to swim to - Auto, and as bp had been wassiariag from tWo.houve fire day break, ; if " Tinstchm, 04 its sactis en .b/o temples," that is no ream why hill tehleOrs should be po Ftlered. 1.4 . • ‘v!

PRIVATEER IN THE CHANNPL COME, SEPT. 2.—The Maria hired armed brig, of eight guns, and 38 men, commanded by Lieutenant Ilawkes, on her voyagE frani PortsmOurfi, tcre'ruize on the Belfast station, arrived at Waterford last Monday evening. Lieut. Hawkes communicated the following particulars : " At two P. M. Settees bearing N. Eby 'E. 6 or 7 miles—observed a strange sail to the S. E. standing apparently in chace of us—at this time the Mark' t boat was boarding a sloop—at three the chace came op nearly within gun-shot—hoisted English Ensign and Pendant—fired a gun athwart her bows—Chace hoisted English union-jack, but from its make was perfectly convinced it was not English made— fired a second and third at her, of which she took no notice, then fired a whole broadside—then tacked, shivered her head-yards, for us to come up—we then tacked, and when within gan-shot, fired a second and a third broadside, but to• far off to takeeffect— she then made all sail to the southward, and from her very superior sailing was soon hull down. I then tacked for this port (Waterford), to communicate with Vice-Admiral Thornhrough at Cork." The stranger did not answer the Mark's signals. By the Duke of Kent and Prince Ernest we learn, that a large American privateer was cruising off Finisterre, and bad taken and burnt several ves sels. The Caledonia Lund, from Jamaica to Bristol, 'foundered sth July, at sea. The Colonist, Oliver, for London • and 13ootle, Ford, of Liverpool, were lest at Barb ados during a violent gale on 23d July. .~ ~~ f • ' 'l.
