The return to cash payments by the Bank will take place on the Ist of February. It is the opinion of eminent persons in the City, that no alteration in the exchanges, by which the value of bullion may be influenced, is at all to be npprehentled. The new !thin, therefore, for restoring the currency of the country to a sound and healthful mate could not commence under more favourable auspices.— Gold and silver have been for some time at the Mint price, and even at that rate purchases are not made to the extent offered. We are informed that a ten der, to a considerable amount, was last week ►e fused by the Bank. The last letters from Petersburgh state, that some rigorous measures on the subject of their circulating medium have recently been adopted by the Russian Government. All paper money, the currency of the empire, after it has once passed the frontier, cannot be again received ; if discovered in transmission by post it will be seized and destroyed, and owners of foreign merchant vessels offering it in payment of duties will be prosecuted. The penalties against sending gold out of the empire have been increased in severity. COVENT-GARDEN. The Comedy of Errors was repeated WI Saturday night. and by its various attractions did not fail to collect a crowded and fashionable audience. Miss Sterstess and Miss Tars received the most flat tering gawks of public approbation. We never derived more gratification from any musical per formance than from the former Lady's execution of the beantifol snug, Lo! here the gentle Lurk, weary of rest;" and never did we witness a more en t husiavtic and universal expression of applause, or a stronger indication of impatience for its repetition, than that manifested by the audience at its condo sail'. Miss STRPUBSIS Was far some moments on tine stage before the loudly-expressed admiration of the audience would permit her to resume the song. Mors 'TREE was also warmly encored in the song, Street Rose, fair flower," &c. The play was throughout honoured with the same ardent marks of applause as on the first night of its revival. In the interlude of Sylvester Daggerwood, Mr. Yarrs's extraordinary talents excited the muntei mittitig mirth of the house. Previous to tile farce, which was Boa Ton, Mr. JONES came forward and delivered the following epolo` : LTNIEN—In eonsecrience . 4, L a nrss AND GENT inaiap..iteun with which M.

This address was favourably received, and Mr. YATES acquitted himself of his undertaking with great credit . Yesterday seinniglit the Rev. J. K. GRES:THAW, of Portsmouth, was admitted to Priest's Orders, at the Cathedral Church at Norwich. Advices from Cadiz, dated November 2 state, that en order has been issued by the King of SPAIN, to allow the admission of British merchan dote to a limited extent of tonnage, and at a given ratio of duty, without examination. This privilege is coolitied to the ports of Cadiz, Seville, Alicatit, and Malaga. No orders have been issued since the disappearance of the fever for re-euiboilying the River Plate expeditioti, but it is confidently as serted, that role ou • smaller scale, consisting of 6,000 melt. and intended for the Caraccas, will be immediately set on foot. IVe understand that in the debate on Thursday eeeiiing no the distresses of the poor, that Sir Wm. DE CRESPICNY assured his blends that he should not come to a division ; in consequence many left the House, others were not arrived. it was the unexpected refusal of Ministers to give him any answer to the question be pat across the table at the end of the debate, that forced him to a division. The BM introduced by Mr. CALLAGHAN into the House cf Commons relating to Bankers in Ireland. repeals so much of the 29th Geo. 11. c. 16. as prohibits hankers from trading as merchants; it further repeals so much of the Act 33 Geo. c. 14. as renders void all hankers' notes issued bear ing interest ; and also the clauses in the said Act that relate to conveyances by bankers to trustees of their estates, real sad personal, for the payment of the debts. The following is an extract of a private letter re• ceived from Manchester, dated December 16:— „ Last night Mr. NADIN and several of his assist ants were sent to Bury, for the purpose of appre hending certain individuals who formed the Radical Committee there. He was accompanied by a troop of Lancets. ft was about eight o'clock, p. m. when Mr. NADIN arrived at Bury, and he proceed. ed directly to the Union Room, and seized eight of the Committee, in the midst of their deliberations. Two others were taken at their residences, and the whole (ten) were lodged in the New Bailey about midnight. This morning they underwent a private examination, and were committed for a misde meanor, and not having bail in readiness, were for warded to Lancaster Castle about one o'clock this day. The twines of the persons committed are, James Brookes, Richard Booth, George Hall, Edward Holt, Lawrence Brookes, James Griffiths, Robert Howarth. .John Greenlialgli, Benjamin F e ll, and BOTLEY, DEcruste 17• CORR ETTS ARRIVAL. A' it has become s scot of fashion to report the movements turd procrediligs of the principal Midi eels of the country, particularly such► its Wadding ton. Colihrtt, &c. we lirg to announce the Arrival of the latter, at this l ilac-, on Wedneschy evening last, et six o'clock. It had been buzzed about the village for some time, by the partisans of the Cobhett family, that the Bone Porter (i. e. carrier or Tom Paine'. bones) would arrive first on this day, then ou that ; ut length, to produce the nes cvissary popular degree of ezeiternent. it was hinted that stroug beer would he given away on his an- Thl• was a temptation which no true beer lovitig descesidaot of those ancient worthies wilts held the far-famed Botlry Assizes, could resist. Not, therefore, from feelings of regard for ■ny, but for the glory of a skinfall of their favourite beverage, they determiued to honour the Patriot ! Tarp• on Wedne►day it was announced that he would arrive at Gigg's Cottage, shout half a mile from Botley, whence, on his arrival, they drew hint into the tillage; and having cheered him seieral times, he mounted the dickey, and briefly address. ed them. Ile said that it gave him great satisfac tion to be thus hailed on his return to his native country, and that, small as their number was. as they all knew him, it gave him snore wig fiction to be received by them, than by the hundreds and hundreds of thousands who had drawn his carriage through the North of Eng land. That, small as their number we', if every man performed his ;sort, it would contri bute greatly to restore prosperity to the country ; that the country was in a worse state than when he left it; that he wished them ell happier than they were, and hoped lie should live to pass many happy days among them ; that lie was much fatigued, :lad begged they would excuse him. Ile was then drawn home, mid in taking his leave of the toothy groupe, he told them they might then snake use of their voices, but in the course of ten days Ministers would endeavour to nin:zle them, but that he wouild he d--d if they should. After this the tool', who, to do them justice, notwithstanding this act of folly, are Anti-Radicals, hearing nothing about the strong beer, and finding that they had been swiadled into a foolish belief, stole away, to the tune of " The dog hangs down his tail."— I(Hampshire Telegraph.) DISGRACEFUL OUTRAGE. On Saturday afternoon, the 11th instant, a mail arrived at Windsor, bearing a warrant for the apprehension of the Proprietor of the Union coaches (Mr. Thumwood), in default of his pay ing two fines awarded against him, upon infor mation, for breaches of the Act for the pm tection of persons travelling in stage-coaches. We have understood that these offences were of a very trifling nature, and that the penalties, which amounted to about c 24/. would have been greatly mitigated, had the proprietor not been deceived by the promised influence of the witness to the in formation, to procure this mitigation. It is stated that by the arts of this man Mr. Thumwood was prevented attending the appointed meeting of Jus. nets, and the full penalty was in consequence awarded. The persoß who is said to have thus con ducted himself was made a special constable for the execution of the warrant; and it is therefore mi. total to imagine, that a great deal of angry feeling would be displayed by the interested party when this service came to be performed. With these par ticulars we have no concern. 'rite warrant was backed by a Magistrate of Windsor ; and, after much discussion, Mr. Thumwood complied with its pro visions by paying the amount of the penalties. This transaction took place in Mr. Thumwood's office. In the mean time a number of persons had assembled, at fir►t collected perhaps by idle curiosity. Their feelings became gradually excited by the hated name of an ‘. Informer," and it was evident that they me ditated some mischief. On the man leaving the office they immediately assailed him, and during the course of an hour the unhappy creature was per welded by a series of brutalities, disgraceful alike to the character of the assailants either as English. men or Christians. From one quarter of the town to the other lie was hunted, reviled, pelted, and beaten ; he was stript to the skin, though the night was remarkably inclement ; and, in a state little short of complete exhaustion, was dragged along for the avowed purpose of a ducking in the Thames. It is with increased feelings of regret we mention, that these infuriated wretches were at length pre veined from becoming participators in the death of a fellow-creature (which in all probability would have ensued), not by those whose duty it is to pre serve the peace, but by the individual gallantry of an Officer of the Guards, Capt. Cumberland, who hazarded his own safety in the rescue of this unfor. tunate victim of popular rage. The keeper of the Borough gaol indeed exerted himself to protect the persecuted individual ; hut he does not seem to have known the extent of his own power as a peace officer. The wretched matt was at length conveyed to the barracks, where every care was taken to restore him. Ile left Windsor the following morn ing. It is remarkable that during the whole of this outrage, he held the money he had received firmly clinched in his hand. There is now living at Doidge's Well, Plymouth, a woman, named ELIZ4DETH MUTTON, who is in the 105th year of her age. having been born iu 1714. • It has been determined to open soup-kitchens in Portsmouth for the supply of the pour during the winter months. An account was taken on the 15th instant of the pauper poor in the parish of Portico. when the number proved to be as follows :—On out-door relief in the guildable part of the parish, 479; in the liberty part, 2,686; inmates in the poor-hoave. 661 :—total, 3,626 poor. The subscription for the relief of the poor at Plymouth is warmly promoted. The Rev. Dr. II AW R sit obtained upwards of 40!. from his congre gation, on Sunday last, after a sermon in their be half.

A writ of right has been commenced by Dymoke Wells, Esq. against Lewis Dymoke, Esq. to reco ver possession of the Scrivelsby estates, in this county, with their appendages, oil the ground that the same were illegally devised by Lewis 1)31101:e. Esq. late of Serivelsby, who died in the year 17(50, to Edward Dymoke, Esq. the grandfather of the present posaessor, he not having such) power, the complainant (Wells) being the heir general of the family. The question wholly rests on a point of law, and the construction of an ancient Act of Par. !lament, how far it may or may not o pe ra te on a grant previously made by the Crown. On Mon. day, the 6th inst. Mr. Wells petitioned the House of Lords, in terms of which, the following is a copy: —(Stamford Paper.) "To the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in RirLaineeit assembh d. the humble Petition of Dymuke Welk, Fsq. sheweth, 'rhat your petitioner is the heir general of Yhatp de Marmyon, as has already in effect been pros eel iu the proceedings on the petition of Lewis Dymoke, Fey. upon his claim fur the barony of Marmyon before your Noble and Honourable House.

According to report, however. it is principally to fall on the junior clerks. At the Victualling-office. 12 or 15 individuals of this de scription have received notice that their services will be dispensed with at the end of 'the present year; from which it may be inferred, that a great diminu tion in the public business has taken place. None of these unfortunate clerks are, it is reported, to have any permanent allowance for past services. al though some of them are represented as having been eight and nine years in their situations.
