BERNE JUNE 19.-Although the Constitution has not been accepted throughout the whole of Hel vetia, the Little Council have already proceeded to take measures as if they were sure of its being adopted. 'lt has decreed,. that the new Senate • shall 'speedily assemble ; the Members are to assemble at Berne on the. 29th of this month. Notwithstanding this, there exists an opposition, which, although it. certainly forms the minority of Helvetia, yet has sufficient energy to throw consi derable obstacles in 'the way of the new Constitu tion: The small Cantons, which are the cradle of Helvetian Liberty, still preserve that spirit of In dependence which distinguished the charaeter of the companions of WILLIAM TELL. They have re jeCted the new, Constitution. The Cantons of Schwiz, Uri, and Unterwahlen, have unanitnously voted against it. In Glaris and Appenzel, there was a great majority against the Constitution, and there is some reason to apprehend that this spi rit of opposition will extend itself to the other Can tons of Swisserland. JUNE 21.--The results of the Votes of eight Cantons, on the subject of the Cons:itution is, that 138,4.65 have accepted it, 40,236 having in scribed their acceptance, and 98,249 having tacitly accepted it, and x 8,903 have rejetted it. 'ln the Canton of Argau, there were 6336 written accepta tions, 64.t2 tacit acceptations, and 1793 have re_ jetted it. HOME CIRCUIT. BEFORE TUE CHIEF BARON AND MR. BARON HOTHAM.

SDRREY—Monday, April 9, at Ciuildtord, THE THEATRE.- - The most numerous audience which the Haymarket Theatre has attra&ed thither this season, was present last night at the representa tion of The Heir at Law.• An apology was made fnr Mrs. MOUNTAIN, who wap too much indisposed , to play the part of . Caroline Dornier, and it was read by Miss CHAPMAN, in such a manner that the interest of the table was but little impaired. The Performers in general have been often sufficiently noticed ? except, indeed, M URRAY an d D e C AM?, i n S tedfast and - fleitry Moreland. The f6finer, as usual, was respeetabie, the latter has much to learn in point of natural delivery before he will make a proper impression on the feelings of the audience. Mrs..BlLLtNoTort leaves Liverpool to.rnotrdw, on her journey to the North. She appears in Edin_ bur , 6 ll during the Race Week. On Monday last a grand Public Breakfast was given at Sunning-Hill Wells. About two hundred persons were present. The company began to as-• semble at one o'clock, and ip o n after the Breakfast commenced : it Consisted, as is usual on such occ.,- sions, of every elegant ~.ttable, with wines, fruits, tea and coffee. Two temporary, rooms were appro_ iriated for the breakfast tables, and another for dancing. Soon after two . o'clock about thirty couple went down to the tune of the Carollers of Stitherlaid. The dances continued till nearly five o'clock ) when the company retired. General MottEAtr, who was lately on a hunt, ing party at Neuilly, the seat of LUCIEN ,BONA PARTE, had nearly been killed by a wolf, who already had his teeth in the hero's coat, but he was immediately killed by LUCIEN. When the FisT CoNsta, takes the amusernent of hunting, of which he is extremely fond, he is al ways attended by a picquet of cavalry: Lord SOMERVILLE w we are concerned to hear, has received such serious injury from his tinfortu_ . nate accident on S un d a y l ast , an d w hi c h we men. tioned in our Paper of Monday ) that very faint hopes were two days ago entertained of his reco. very Two bulls have lately been baited in the Isle of Wight : one of the poor creatures had his horns sawed to the quick, in order to provoke ferocity. The other, when he lay down quite exhausted ; and panting for breath, had gunpowder put - under his eye, the explosion of which was judged to be a happy means of re-animating his spirits and vigour. Several .bakers were yesterdi - iy summoned before the LORD MAYOR, charged with making irregular returns,, and some with making no.returns at all.— His Lordship told them, from such irregularities the fluduation in the price of bread was occasioned, and according to the Aet of Parliament they were subjed to the fine of ten pounds but they pleading their families, they were forgiven, on paying the expences. An apprentice'to a carpenter was charged befo re the Lord(Mayor with having insulted his master in a gross manner. It being clearly proved, he was sent to Bridewell for one month, and ordered to be flogged, Monday afternoon a gang" of Coiners underwent a long examination at the Public Office at Shadwell. It appeared in evidence, that an Officer of this dis_ tria received information that the prisoners'occupied a house in Charlotte_place, Pentonville, in , which. they carried on an extensive coinage of counterfeit silver. Between seven and eight o'clock on Satur day evening he broke in upon them in a one pair of stairs room, in which waa a furnace, and they at work, burnink coke ; flasks, - Melting - pots, and every other apparatus for the coining of counterfeit silver, were found ; some pieces were in a finished state, which, with the prisoners (in their working - dresses) were taken to the Office. They were Om.: n4itted for re-examination, till the Solicitor of the M ot shall attend on behalf of the Crown, ••VIE ARtS4 Ti E doMmittee.appdbited by the Lords of the Treasury .to examine the modek which have been fornied for the Monuments _rd: be ereeied in Sr. Paul's cathedral; in consequence of Addresses to His MAJESTY from the House of Commons, consists of the following persons.

The Opera of Armida was repeated on Tuesday night to a very genteel, and, considering the late ness of the season, a very full'house.—BANTl was well received; and encored in the beautiful Duet with VIGANONI. There was 'some mistake in the last scene, the shower of fire was over before the Enchantress had finished her Song. The beautiful new Ballet of the Siege of Paphos, followed, and was received throughout with the greatest" applause: The charming PARISOT made her second appearance, and looked and danced most delightfully. She appears to be perfeCily recovered from her tedious indisposition, which so ling de prived the Public of her graceful performance. The Stage was not incommoded by drunken Loungers. LAW REPORT': COUR r Ok KING's BENCH, SITTINGS AT GUILDHALL, JUNE 29. FOSTER V. JOHN ICING. Tx' is was an Ataion on a Bill of Exchange for 500'. accepted by the Defendant, one of •the Pro prietors of the London and Dublin Union Bank,— The Defence to the Aftion was, that Mr. King,, at the time the Bill was*accepted, had withdrawn fr'om the Firm. This, however, did not appear to be the case, and the Jury found a verdiet for the Plaintiff. WEDNESDAY, JUN: so. `AWARDS. Mr. WOOD moved for a Rule to spew Cause why an Award should not be set aside, on the ground that it appeared on the face of the• Award itself, it was made for a bad reason, and therefore ought to be set aside. No Arbitrator was bound. to assign a reason for making his Award, but if he did assign a reason,. and that' reason was a bad one, it entitled the Party .who disliked it to come to the Court, and to ask that it be set aside. This was an Aftioc brought by the Plaintiff, who was the Owner of a Ship, to recover of the Defendant the value of it, on account of the Defendant's Ship having run down that of the Plaintiff; which Cause was referred to Arbitration. The Parties attended the Arbitrator, and the Case having been gone through, the . Arbitrator took time to make his Award, in the course of which he recited many , of the circumstances of the Case, anti ,stated that he had consideredthe law both antient and modern as it related to maritime affairs, many i diCia froth which he quoted, and concluded with stating, " That" he despaired of giving satisfadion to all .Patties ; that he found ,there gulls no neglitence en either side, and therefore he ordered that the Parties should bear - the whole loss, costs, tke. equally between them." This was bad reasoning, aril wascontratylo bee:it:lse if there was no fault aby.where, the loss ought to be sustained by the Party on whom it was cast by the accident. Mr: 'Wool) said, that the title Of . the Cause in which he moved was Kent rv. Estoff, and if . the Cotirt desired it he._ would state the named the Arbitrator also': but Lord Ett,EN aoitotiem said, perhaps it would be better not to state the name of the Arbitrator, since that might spoil his trade; Rule granted to chew cause why the Award should not be fietaside. On Friday eveping - • as Mr: • Samuel Corbitr, of the flermitage., and Mr. Grice, of Rotherhithe, were returning from Gravesend, they were stopped on Blackheath by two footpads,.. who presented a pistol to each gentleman,. and - robbed Mr. Cor hitt of his watch, and about 2,0. and Mr. Grice of • near 61. ; when Mr. Corbitt, with , great coin posure of mind, informed them they had not 'a sixpence left to proceed to Town, and begged as a favour they would return a seal which was on. the chain, being one left him by his father. 'The rob. bet immediately broke the chain in halves, return, ed it, and wished_ him safe to Town. A Post-boy in a return chaise, in the course of a quarter of an hour overtook the Gentlemen, and infortlia them he had been robbed also. • On Sunday morning, at two o'clock, NATHAN rE L CONANT, Esq. one of the Magistrates, attended by the tifficers, entered a gaming-luiuse in Pall-Mall, anti found a number of persons assembled there, for the purpose of playing at Hazard and other, games ; the implements for gaming were seized by' the Offi cers, and the parties found were taken into custody, and were examined at the office on Monday Morn_ ing, before the same Magistrate, who direfted them all to find sureties, as we'll() appear at the Sessions, as :to be bound not to be found -at unlawful games in the mean time. The owner of the house was arefied to be, prosecuted for permitting such trans adions to, be carried on. On Sunday lair, as Mrs MoLtxt's•'wife and daughter Were going from their' house at Stratford- Green, Essex, to Plaistow, in their chaise, the horse took fright at Upton, and by kicking, in his efforts to extricate himself, unfortunately broke both the legs of Mrs. - Molirrlt in the most dreadful manner. Every assistance was instantly afforded by A. MAX- I'S k L D, Esq. whose house they were passing at the time ;-and Mrs. MOL INI was carried home s where she lies very ill. 117 - . . , ia;ve bethi fivolittd by this GehtliirrirM f 0.110174 Account .of his Aerial.

I urged Capt..SownEN, his etavelling companion, to. desist from his intended journey, as he-voi)ceived it was his duty to run alone the dangers of the day, since nothing but mere. couriosity could have in.„ duced'him t o undertake this peiiious excursion.---;' Capt. SOWDEN, notwithstanding .Mr. repre. sentations and entreaties, listened to his courage only,•which triumphed over the obvious difficulties he had to encounter. From half after four till five, a few showers of rain fell, andcalmed fi;r a few:mb ments only the violence of the,wind, which alit r_ wards raged with increased fury. At five precise ly, the travellers mounted the atrial car : each them unfurled, and waved the ColourS of their re speaive Nations, which they re-united, as a syni. bol of alliance and amity. No one can doubt, at, stiCt'a juncture, the sincerity ,thus expressed'hy two brave defenders of their Country, whose for Peace was visibly felt. The galloon having been carried round the ring, the travellers, placed in the car, took tlieir leave amidst the plaudits -and anxious good wishes of the: surrounding company, and sprung majestically- to. wards the celesfiai regions, where the raging winds seemed then to be the rulers, The inhabitants of London had then an opporru. nity of seeing the standards of all nations with 'which the Balloon was dressed rising proudiy .froni• the borders of the Thames, and losing them-ek es: in the immensity . of space, and in the same in.inmtr as they were seen on the 18th Brumaire, (9tn of November), springing from the very bosom of the Seine, ar Paris. At the moment of departure, the balloon directed its course across. St: James's Park, Aid went over the river between Westtninster and Blackfriar's bridge: Perceiving then that the aerostatic venicie was descending, Mr. G. threw out soine ballast ; he then rose much above St. Paul's, and the travellers had an opportunity of viewing at one sight the oeautifui city of London and its suburbs. The tempetatnre was already rg degrees colder. Mr. G. and'Mr. S. felt quite • Lond'on soon dis appeared by crossing a cloud, which, being stir. mounted, made them likewi v se lose sight of the earth. The temperature was milder. The inf/am.• triable air. began then to diiate t and the aeronauts provided' the means of safety f?) , proctring- every necessary emission of air. ~ Dinner was then intro., duced, and eat en wi t h pl easure an d appetite; at the desert, Mr. G. informed Capt. S. that their jour ney was drawing to a conclusion, and it was neces sary to prepare for a descent extremely hazardous, 3n account of the excessive violence of the wind, which was likely to precipitate the travellers and the machine on the trees ! on the hedges-, on the houses, and, in fad, on every thing that Would ob. strut} their passage'. The travellers had been exptiring the atmosphere upwards of half an hour only, and having no idea . .of being at such a distance, thought it nevertheless expedient to come down. N . 4 . r. G. opened the sort_ page, o'r aperture of his Balloon, to - cross again the same cold and dark clouds already mentioned. The earth became visible as well as. the sea, which they saw very-close, an arm of which they even crossed in various parts. The - anchor and cordage were ready for landing ; the fury of the wind made the Balloon bounce from place to place as it grounded ! and - dragged the travellers through fields, trees and hushes, by which their hands were torn to pieces. The- anchor noW and then caner ground, and fastened at last to a hedge near a house, whose in. habitants, frightenth at the sight of the aerial may chine, not only declined to give assistance, but ac tually offered to fire on the venturesome Travellers. -- At this jundure, the tope that fastens to the anchor broke, and the machine was carried with addi tional violence against a tree, by which Mr. S. re; ceived a severe- blow on the head. The Balloon, however, having been torn in the lower part, both the cords and netting of the railing of. the car broke, and the wind again forced away these Gen.' tlemen from the tree they were strongly clasping, but with the assistance of a new though last oter. tiou, the aerials had an opportunity of leaving the! Car 4 and Balloon, which fell 'upwards of 300 yards further.. Mr. G. and S. were - then four miles beyOnd chester; they went over ,Epping Forest, ,Btc. and perforThed this long and arduotis journey, in the short space of three quarters of an hour. Mr. G. mentions 'in the handsomest terms the courage Capt. S. evinced in this new instance, and with peculiar expressions of gratitude and acknow. ledgments of Ore perseverance with which he volun- tarily shared the dangers attending their landing, as he could several timeshave extricated himself trom .the car, which he never thought of leaving 'without his - pilot. . _ Fie , has . unfortunately received some contusions ; but we are happy to hear, that they are of nu con. sequence. The remains of the Balloon are now exhibiting '4 the Panti,eon, with the Aerostat and Parachute, with which Mr.• G. is to make his new experiment at Loan's Cricket Ground next Saturday, if dm wc. tier permits.
