ROYAL ACADEMY. The approaching Exhibition at the Hopi Academy will, it is said, be the best which the public has yet seen from that national establish ment. Nearly the whole of our Artists will exhibit this year. The Portraits are, as nstial, numerous, but some of them may he called historical ones. Sir THOMAS LAWRENCE takes the lead : he has an If:rush-in* Portrait of the Dukeof WELLINGTON, in his military uniform, which is a . masterly work, and may vie with any of vAsttirite4 celebrated oinpositions of this kind in the anatomy, the spirit, and energy of the figures, while it certainly surpasses them in richness and splendour of colour ing. Sir THOMAS has also a fine Portrait of his Koval Highness the PRINCR RCGENT, and Mr. SHEE and Mr. OWEN have some very fine speci mens of their talents in this department of art. Among the Landscapes, which are, in point of Imhject, as various as they are nntnerous, Mr. TURNER retains, as he deserves, his undisputed pre-eminence. He has three helmet for the Exhi bition ; one of them is a View of Dort, the scenery of which town has been so celebrated by the admi rable views taken on the spot by Ctive, who wit a native of it. Mr. TURNER liar handled the sub ject in a diGrent manner—he has preserved the same transparency which gave Cute such deserved reputation, and added to it a brilliant and capt►- vating tone of colour, which produces a magical effect. Mr. CAI-cotr has an admirable View of Sheer ness. It in finished in the same style. and with the rime excellence that characterised his View qf Pool of London, which attracted so much attention at aformer Exhibition. Mr. Cowie% sad several other Artists, are ale° exhibitors. We have already alluded to the three works from Mr. President WEss ; two of them are lately painted, and the third has been tome time finished. COURT OF CHANCRRt LADY FRANCES EMILY VANE TEMPEST, a minor. and a ward of Court. by her next friend. MICiI•EL ANGELO TAYLOR, Esq. M.P. v. the COUNTESS of ANTRIM and otnEas. An erroneous statement luth appeared in most of the papers relative to the fortune oud property of Lord Stewart, and we (rave reatou to btlievb that the following is correct, and is precisely to the effect of what the Solicitor-General stated on Friday last-- 4 That his Lordship, alb s Lord of the King's Bedchamber, and by Ailing two other Offices, received the annual salary of 3,7001. As Ambassador at the Court of Vicuna, he re ceived a farther incume . of 12,000/. a year. He was also tenant fur lite, in possession, of certain landed property in Londonderry, from which lie received an annual calm of 2,0001. On his father's death he would succeed to estates in Londonderry mid Donegal, of 8,0001. a year, with re mainder to his issue mile; and if his brother, Lord Castle reagh, should die without male issue,he would further suc ceed to Watts in the county of wit, of not less than 18,000 f. 'a year, with like remainder to his issue male; and he had sow ■ power of jointuriog a wife with 1,000/. per mummy and of charging 10,0001. for younger children on the Derry and Donegal estates; and if be should come into possession of the Down estates, would have further powers of jointering and 'charging with younger children's fortuues and that his Lordship tiossessed personal property to the value of 21,0001. eticeeding his debts." It is, however, very important to add, that Lord Stewart is a widower, and has issue by his late wile a ton, who, as far as the entailed estates of his family go, must take precedence of any issue which his Lordship may have by a srcoisd marriage. Erroneous imprespions having arisen out of the Tate Chancrry dircusmions, we are authorized to state, that the Lady of rank so much alluded to is not Lady CASTLEREAGH. The name of Sir THOMAS BROOKE PECHELL was omitted in our List of the Minority on the mo tion for an additional allowance to his Royal High ness the Duke of CLARENCE. The following in mu extract of a letter from St. Salvador, dated 13th of February Th e Nimble, LAING, arrived here on the sth from Cape Coast, after being plundered of part of her cargo, to the amount of 4.e00/., by a privateer.

There seems to be no doubt hnt the piracy com mitted on the Princess Elizabeth Post-office packet, from Rio de Janeiro to Falmouth, can be brought home to two Spanish merchantmen. By the report of the people on board the packet, as stated at Lloyd's, it appears that the Crews consisted of Spa niards, and that the name of the ship was under. stood to be the Fire Brothers, and that of the brig Chico.
