'l4 I~ i !there guilty of acts of violence to some Turks, and pulled them by the beards, but that they were punished by the Minima with the knout. We have received the following from our Cor. respondent at Paris : " PARis, OCT. 7. " On the subject of the treaty itself:the Liberal Journals are, as might have been expected, loud, and et , ett boisterous in their denunciations of it. They exclaim that Turkey in Europe has been placed at the mercy of the Court of St. Petersburgh, and that the principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia are hereafter to be governed under the influence of the Czars. Even Servia, which is bounded by the Austrian dominions over a long extent of territory, • la'.to subjected to the same government. The rt:resses of Moldavia and Wallachia, being ex empted from occupation by Turkish garrisons, mus t, they say, be considered as in the power of the Mus covites, and for further security Giurgewo, the only ibttresa which could present any obstacle to another irivasion by Russia, is to be demolished, so that although they were to evacuate European Turkey immediately, it is inferred that they may invade it again as soon as they please. With regard to Asia tic interests, it is stated that the three positions at .the foot of the Caucasus, for which Russia has sti pulated, will secure to that power a fourfold advan tage. Ist, of enabling them to :ay their hand at will on a considerable portion of Turkey in Asia. 2d, of holding in check, and if necessary, of threaten ing Persia. 3d, of closely observing the British possessions in India ; and 4111, of aggrandizing their territory on the Asiatic banks of the Black Sea.— But this they say is not all, the free passage of the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles, is assured to the ships of all nations not at war with _Russia or Turkey, from whence it is deduced that the Russians, and Rot.the Turks, are to be masters of the two Bos tpitori, and that British vessels are to enter the sea of .IWarmora, and to penetrate the Black Sea, at die good pleasure only of the Emperor of Russia, who is thus they infer to have the exclusive keeping of h e key s o f these important situations. These Jour takes this opportunity also of renewing their complaints against the French Government for the meagre and unsatisfactory nature of the information now communicated, although it is extremely pro bable that all the details of the telegraphic communi cation have already transpired. We are not told they say of the nature or extent of the territory to ber•occupied by Russia till the indemnity be finally discharged, and they will not admit that any thing is clear, but that the interests of France and of Greece have been sacrificed, French influence nul lified, and French commerce in the Black Sea placed under tutelage; and that England, in whose train France is so miserably led, is now chuckling at a humiliation, in which she shares, in the hope of rising by her own strength from an ignominious thraldom in which, when the proper period arrives, she will leave the French to struggle alone. It is, they say, the present policy of England to carry Franc e along with her; but they contend that the interests of the two countries are not identical; con cluding with the expression of the hope that the Poligna c Administration is not to be perpetual; and that if, as they anticipate, a new struggle is to be commenced, their country will assume a station worthy of a great people, feeling their own strength and understanding their true dignity. I have thus attempted to give you a feeble abstract of the lead ing arguments maintained by the Anti-Ministerial Press ; but after the opinions which I hazarded in my letter of yesterday, and which I cannot as yet see .eny reason to change, I shall not for the present engage any further in the discussion. " PARIS, OCT. 10. " The intelligence which continues to arrive from the scene of recent hostilities in the East, has now lost all its interest, and I shall not therefore detain you with the details of military movements which are so Soon to issue in the peaceful result of which We are already in possession. " The French Liberals appear to me to have sus tained a severe blow by the conclusion of the treaty of peace. It completely overturns all their wild -s peculations as to the foreign policy of the new Cabinet : and although it has not hitherto softened .the severity of their invectives, it cannot fail before long to diminish the unpopularity of the Polignac Administration. The bow has been too far bent to admit ofits retaining its elasticity at such an extreme degre e of tension. The Constitutional leaders have 'overshot the mark, and must, I should think, for , _ s ome time leave the game in the hands of their Royalist opponents, who will no doubt endeavour amak e t h e most of the reaction which will pro their arise arise i n t h e i r f avour i n pu bli c op i n i on. I n their domestic policy they will, of course, be very careful to give as little cause as possible for public :txcitere ent ; but after making every allowance for ; 3 4 instability of popular sentiments, as well as for Peculiar versatility of the French character, I f • .i•ormed annot brin g myself to believe that any Ministry fron on Royalist or Ultra-Royalist prin c ipl e s, will n henceforth be able to command a majority either in the Chamber of Deputies or the Electoral Colleg e of France. "The Count de la Ferronays has at length been appointed successor to M. de Chateaubriand, in the embassy to Rome; and the Count de Laval left Paris yesterday for London, to supply the want which has so long existed of a regular Ambassador at the Xnglish Court. " I ha ve b een glad to o b serve , through the me dia of letter s f rom DieppeZthe kind and cordial feelings which have been excited between the French an d English generally, by the visit of the Duke and D uchess of Clarence to that delightful watering P la ce; and I trust that the influence of this good understanding may be gradually extended, so as to • Weaken, and at length extinguish, that bitterness of :feeling which it has lately been so much the cue of • „the Anti -Ministerial party to call into action. Their -40Yal Highnesses arrived at Dieppe about a fort night ago, by one of the Brighton steam-boats, ac !?capanied by the Duke and Duchess of Meiningen, t h e brother and sister-in-law of: the Duchess of Clarence; On the 30th ult. an Admiralty yacht arr'i'ved, towed in by the Echo a powerful Govern . the steam- vesse l , both of which, but particularly Le yacht, have been the admiration of the inha bitants or 1:ko t , . Die ppe. On Thursday week the vsitors went to examine the ruins of the C ast le of Argues, that old -Norman fortress, for_ uhich the Kings of France and England had so th at and so obstinately contended. It appeared, tee n the stay of the Royal party at Dieppe would t e n b een u shorter, had not their return to England of -a uererrid by the indisposition of the Duchess Meiningen, The Duke of Clarence it is said veri much a l one a b out t h e town, and h as be so eingorneyat a favourite from his evident disregard . H e is described as speaking very gpod o p en ch, and is often seen in conversation with the of naval invalids , who habitually frequent the end ur the jetty, as if unwilling to lose a sight which 1. r em inds them of their former campaigns. The a : d ike is spoken of as an old man, stooping a little, usin 411., e co g a cane in walking, but of a lively humour, , tll titution still robust and firm ; the stoop a" the Us e o f t h e cane being good-naturedly ascrib t‘o the habit of listening attentively to those who to°reas themselves to him. The good people of Ti 'ePpe say there is a great resemblance between the end of Clarence and G eorge th e F our th, an d they in both that dig n ifi e d aspect an d t h a t a i r o f teeation, from the manner in which the head is Placed on the shoulders, for which the two Royal ..t er ,"nages are undoubtedly so remarkable. The i)a a Ke's dress is remarkable for its simplicity, blue r . ntft , l ° l3 ns, with a coat of the same colour buttoned "igh, so as scarcely to allow a decoration to be ON which may however just be perceived peeping pert under his cravat. A few days ago the Royal ti,, e t Y n acc.epted an invitation to a ball, which was ~ N . them by the town. The DUke did not re he 1 "g irk the place of honour to which he had bpi conducted by the Mayor of the town, but I :ed aru m ,- g the numerous guests, conversing with who Were brought near to him by the move- ments of the dance. The general aspect of the company must have been rather interesting from the occasional mixture in the same quadrille of French and English uniforms, French and English ladies, the authorities of the place, and the citizens of both nations. The airs of Vire Henri Quartre,' and ' God save the King,' which were given in succes sion, seemed to have very well expressed the pre vailing idea, which was that of universal concord and good will. The English residents at Dieppe have returned the compliment paid to so distinguish ed a visitor, by inviting the native inhabitants to a similar entertainment. I have said so much on this subject, partly because I hope that the baneful pre judices bet Ween the two countries, which have lately been so much cherished by the Liberal party in France, may receive a check by such a demon stration of feeling, as that which has lately taken place at Dieppe, and partly also because the Duke of Clarence does not allow his name to be pressed into public notice, in the manner of another mem ber of the same illustrious family. A public carriage, of a new construction, yester day started for the first time from Paris for Orleans, which seems only to want one of Mr. Gurney's steam-engines to make it a very tolerable machine for the purposes of locomotion. It contained Ho less than sixty passengers, which, according to the place they occupy in the vehicle, are charged ut the rate of five, four, three, and even two sous per league ; the latter rate being somewhat less than a farthing per mile. " A print-seller, of the name of Dubreuil, has been condemned to three months' imprisonment and a fine of five hundred francs, for exposing portraits fur sale of the young Duke of Reichstadt. A Mail has been received from Lisbon by the Stanmer packet. It appears by the following that the work of butchery is still to be perpe trated in that unfortunate country : OPORTO, SEPT. 21. The Correio do Porto contains the sentence pro nounced against the twenty-one individuals who came from England in June, 1828, on board the Belfast steam-boat. They are all condemned to be degraded from their rank, to be executed on the Praga Nova, and afterwards their heads to be cut off, the bodies of some of them to be burned, and the ashes cast into the sea : their heads ex posed on the road from Malezurhos to the seacoast where they landed, and there remain till they decay with time. The property of all of them to be confiscated to the Royal Treasury. The Lisbon Gazettes to 27th October contain no news. The following is from the Falmouth Packet Newspaper : Falmouth Packet Office, Saturday, Two o'Clock, p. m, The Stamper packet has just arrived from Lisbon. At the time of her departure from Lisbon every thing appeared quiet on the surface, whatever heart-burnings the people might feel. Don Miguel freqUently rides in and about the city unattended, and to the unprejudiced observer there appears no probability of a revolution, however such an event may be desired by the friends of constitution a l and clearly defined governments. The armament is refitting for another attack on Terceira. The Government bad ordered forced levies of men both for the army and navy, and con siderable energy was displayed to accomplish the objects.__ An opinion, however, prevailed that the expedition will not proceed to its proposed destination. By accounts from Lisbon we learn that the young Queen of Portugal, DONNA MARIA DA GLORIA, landed at Terceira on the 7th Sep tember, where she remained but a short time, and proceeded on her voyage to Rio Janeiro. It appears that the King of SPAIN has de manded of DON MIGUEL, as a compensation for acknowledging him King of PORTUGAL, that he shall send to Mexico 3,000 men, es corted by two frigates. When this proposition was submitted to the Council of State, BAR BACENA and San LORENZO sanctioned it.— Admiral PREGO is to be tried the moment he arrives at Lisbon, but it is supposed he will go to Rio Janeiro or to England. The Journal of Odessa of the 15th Septem ber, contains the following remarkable passage If the SULTAN has sufficient sense to appre ciate his true interest, he will seek the alliance of Russia, whose policy is to gain the affections of the Turks, and thereby extend her commer cial relations both with Persia and Turkey." Letters from Berlin state, that although the official articles of the Treaty between Russia and the Porte are not published, yet they are nearly ascertained,land consist of 16 articles, of which the 2d, 3d, and 10th, are the most important. We have New York Papers to the 18th ult. The town of Guayaquil remained in possession of the Peruvians on the Ist May, and General MELIOCLIEA had arrived with about 8,000 troops from Payta, from whence General LEMAR was daily expected with the remainder of the Peruvian army. By an arrival in the States from Mada gascar, we learn that the town of Majunge was destroyed bylfire. General SANTANDER had arrived at Puerto Cabello on the 19th August, a prisoner, on board the 64-gun ship Cundana marca, which, after landing him, was to proceed with two other 64-gun frigates and a sloop of war to the Pacific, under Commodore BELUCUB, to keep the Peruvians quiet in that quarter. We have received a file of the Barbadian to the 27th August. These state that in Tri nidad a number of slaves, imported from Domi nica, under the denomination of domestics, have been seized by order of the Government, under the plea that they were intended for other em ployment ; and that others, to the number of 1800, imported under similar circumstances since the Ist Jan. 1825, will also be confiscated to Government. We have some Quebec Papers this morning, which communicate the following :—GEORGE SIMPSON, Esq., Governor of the Hudson's Bay Company's Territories, had arrived at La chine ; he left the mouth of the Colombia river on the north-west coast of America on the 25th March, and reached Rio River Colony about the end of May ; from thence he made a survey of the ports to Moose factory, and came to the Lachine by the Abitib e and 011 away rivers.— He reports the interior to be tranquil, with favourable prospects, and promising crops at the Rio River Colony. The crew of the William and Ann, which was unfortunately wrecked on the 10th March at the entrance of the Colombia river, were treacherously murdered by the natives on reaching the shore, in the expectation of becoming thereby possessed of the property on board. They consisted of 16 Europeans and 10 Sand , with Islanders. The supplies for the Colombia River and its dependencies were expected to ar rive about the month of May, they having been shipped on board the Ganymede. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

By the Manchester accounts this morning, it appears that the trade in Dewsbury, Heekmond wike, Huddersfield, and Halifax, is still in a very low state; but one branch of the fancy trade has much improved, owing to the invention of a machine called a witch, which beautifies the clothes with various flowers. The Merchants and Bankers sign the books at the Bank to-day, and to•morrow they are to receive their dividends, and the public will receive them on 'Wednesday.

We have a current report in the City that an American frigate has taken a Portuguese frigate and brig of war off Terceira; although this report requires confirmation, still they were in great fear at Lisbon that the Americana would snake reprisals for the insult offered to them off the above island. The private letters from Lisbon, by the mail this morn ing, state that it was reported there that an insurrection had taken place at Madeira. Accounts from Havre, by the French Mail, say that on the sth October the Russian sailors in the above port came to blows with the American sailors near the Basin, where quarantine is performed; two of the Russian sailors were thrown into the sea and one of them was drowned. Letters from Toulon state that great exertions are mak ing there to equip the Bellone and Scipion frigates for sea, supposed going to the Levant to reinforce the French squadron ; the brigs Goelette and Vuluge were to sail on the 3d with despatches for Admiral Rigny. Orders have likewise been given for a number of brigs to be kept in readiness to put to sea at the first signal ; it is supposed they will sail in four or five days. A letter from Marseilles of the 30th August, states hat an English house there has received advice that 17 English ships of war have entered the Dardanelles.

My last gave you a report of the performances at the Church on Friday, and mentioned that the second Miscel laneous Concert, with which the Festival concludes, would take place that evening. The Theatre was pretty full One of BEETHOVEN'S symphonies (in D.) opened the cant. paign of the evening. Alm ICsrvErr (who as Miss Mavis was a great favourite in Birmingham) was encored in " Bid me not forget thy smile." The compliment was delicate in the extreme, for Mr. KNYVETT is the composer of the music to that song. Madame M. GARCIA was in excellent ♦oice and high spirits. In Rossna's " Una voce poca fa" she was encored. She also sung " The Light Guitar," and accompanied herself in the air, (the name is not given), which excited so much applause on a preceding evening. BRAHADI was peculiarly unfortunate in all he undertook ; " The Battle of the Angels" was a complete failure. Miss PaTort's "Lo ! here the gentle lark" re ceived the honour of an encore. Nlcilinsost accompanied her on his flute. Miss FANNY AYTON seemed, for the first time since her appearance, to be in excellent voice, and really was most successful in every thing allotted to her. She and Signor COSTA, in the duet, "Un soave non soche," were henoured with very great applause. The Hymn to the Virgin " Ave Maria," from SCOTT'S " Lady of the Lake," was received with uncommon plaudits; the soli parts, by Mrs. KNYVETT and Mr. VAUGHAN, were particularly fine. Dx BERIOT, on his violin, and Mrs. ANDERSON, on the piano -forte, were also distinguished by approbation. The worst of it is, that a Birmingham au dience does not possess any very great discriminating powers, and hence it not unusually happens that they are eloquent in applauding things that a more tasteful company would suffer to pass off sub silentio. Besides these Concerts there have been Balls on Tuesday and Friday. The rooms were lit with wax and portable gas, from patent resin oil.) The latter had a brilliant effect, and possessed no disagreeable smell. On Friday night, at the second ball, an awkward accident occurred, which might have been of a serious nature. It seems that Madame MALI MAN GARCIA had expressed a wish to waltz, and in a few minutes that very delightful dance be came " the order of the night." Several persons, wearing the costume, and moving in the stature of " gentlemen," entered the ball-room, and their very tottering walk, and more tottering language, soon chewed that they had been paying their devotions at the shrine of the rosy god, in plain words that each of them was Bacchi plena& One of them advanced to Madame MALIBRAN and insisted (Birmingham politeness !) on her " treading a measure" with him. She was obliged to comply, but half a dozen rotatory movements of the whirling waltz proved too much for her inebriated partner, who fell on the ground, drag ging his fair waltzer along with him; she cried out as she was falling, and the utmost conftision arose. All fears, however, were allayed by her rising and assisting the fallen hero on his legs. He was severely hurt, and Madame MALIBRAN had a very narrow escape. So much as a specimen of politeness in a Birmingham Ball-room. Many of the light-fingered gentry attended the Festival " professionally." The President (the Earl of BRAD FORD) can confidently testify to the knowledge of their art, as he had his pocket picked of 1001. On the whole, the receipts do not exceed those of the last Festival, while, it is believed, the expeuces are heavier. A damp was thrown on the Festival by a circular, attri buted to a clergyman, who is a Dissenter by birth, educa tion, and belief, but wears the cassock of the Church of England, to enable him to draw a couple of thousands per annum from a rich benefice. This circular bans, as irre ligious and blasphemous, all who attend Musical Festivals. So ardent, indeed, has been the zeal of the individual re ferred to, that lie attempted to bribe the ringers at the churches, in order that the holy church bells might not be desecrated by ringing for the Festival ! As a proof that this feeling is not singular, I need only add that the Bishop of LITCHFIED and COVENTRY, in sending a dona to n of 201. to the General Hospital, expressly stated that the donation was in no way connected with the Musical F es ti va l. Po much for what Lord 8Y11.014 calls " spiri 'nal politeness." Mr. Bu.anitat, Miss PAroN, Miss FANNY AYTON, Mr. THORNE, Miss COVENEY, and the four Bohemian brothers, made their appearance at the Theatre last evening (Satur day). So full was the house, that about 4001. was cleared by this single night. The manager (Mr. CLAREE, who conducted the private theatre of Kilkenny, where Miss O'NEIL made her debut) has engaged all the above per formers for a short time, except Mr. BRAIIAM and Miss l'AroN. As the other rnembe;s of his corps dramatique are very excellent, (particularly Messrs. STUART and BEL ' LAMY, from the Bath Theatre), he is expected to have a successful season. Almost every song during the evening was encored, not so much from an abstract love of music or vocal powers, but from the desire of having their money's worth—an eye to the main chance is certainly one of the characteristics of this " toy-shop of Europe"—and thus concluded the Musical Festival. • The gross receipts of the Birmingham Festival have this week exceeded 10,0001. ; those of York, last year, 16,0001. ; of Man chester, 12,0001.

A new comedy, in two acts, said to be the production of Miss HILL, was brought ont at this theatre en Satur day evening, under the title of The First of May ; or, a Royal Love Match. The dramatis persona disclosed at the first sight in some degree the story on which the play is founded; but excepting the fact of Edward of York marrying the widow of Lord Grey of Groby, whose beauties, shifting through her tears, hkd struck the King while she was suing for the restoration of her at tainted Lord's lands to her children, historical veracity is little observed in this drama. The play opens with the complaints of Katherine Travers (Miss FORDS), who is in the wardship of Roger Oldgrave (Mr. BLANCHARD), a somewhat ancient London merchant, and who wants to make her his wife. The young lady has numerous objec tions to this arrangement, but none so strong as that which arises from her having promised her band to Harry Woodville (Mr. WARDS), and brother of the Lady Eizabella Grey (Miss E. TREE). She determines to escape from her guardian's persecution, and to seek the protection (her lover being absent) of his sister. Just ..befiire she executes this design, her lover has returned from travel to,his father's house, when he finds to his asto nishment and alarm that the victorious Edward the Fourth (Mr. C. KvstaLE) has taken up his abode, awl learns from the King's own lips that he is the suitor to his sister. The notorious libertinism of the monarch justifies his alarm and the remonstrances he addresses to the King, who, after tormenting him a little, tells him that he has determined to make his sister the Queen. Woodaille's scruples on this point being satisfied, he ventures, with more of loyalty than of personal ambition, to represent to Edwad the injurious consequences which may result from an union so far beneath his rank. His sister, who has learned his love for .Kate Travers, whispers the King that her brother has committed the same fault he is cautioning him against ; and upon this hint _Edward determines to punish him. The Widow Jolly (Mrs. Gress) is here introduced. She is the aunt of Catherine, and has come from the Low Countries to extricate her niece from the persecutions of Oldgrave, ' who has been an early suitor of her own, and whom she has marked for her second husband. Mrs. GIBBS acted this part admirably, and cracked jokes with the King with irresistible mirth. IVoodville, who is anxious to see his mistress, pretends an urgent necessity to visit London, and while the preparations are making Kate arrives, disguised in a boy's cloak and hat. She falls in with the King, who discovers her person, and extorts from her the pur pose of her visit. He immediately conceives a design of making his bride jealous (Heaven knows why), at the same time that he effects his intended vengeance against Woodville. He therefore has Kate concealed in his chamber, but under the care of the Widow, whom lie ad mits into his privy council in this affair, and speeds her lover on his journey. Oldgrave, having learnt the place of his ward's retreat, cornea with loud complaints to Lady Grey ; and upon telling her that his ward is hidden in boy's clothes, and with the King's knowledge, in her house, she becomes as jealous as her husband can wish. The Widow favours her delusion. She finds out the place of Rate's concealment, and, while she is angrily reproaching the poor girl, Edward arrives. Lady Grey retires and hears so much of the con versation as convinces her that her suspicions are un founded, and she makes a frank confession of her jealousy and of its cure. Woodville returns; and meeting Old graive, whom he does not know, and h ear i ng hi s com plants about the loss of a ware! whom the King has wiled away from him, be determines to effect her restora tion to the poor man, without ever dreaming that the same ward is his own mistress. He addresses the King on this sub ect,' who promises him all he asks. A May-day festi val is held, in celebration of the nuptials of Edward and kis Queen, at which the truant ward, covered from head to foot with a white veil, appears. Woodville again urges his request that she may be restored to her guardian ; the King consents ; the lover gives her over with his own hand ; and the next moment discovers that he has de stroyed his best hopes. Oldgrave, who is touched with the generosity and iustice of Woodville's conduct, thinks the young man will make a better husband for Kate than he could ; he therefore resigns her, and contents himself with the Widow Jolly; and the play terminates, as a play should, to the satisfaction of every one concerned. It will be seen from the description we have given, that the comedy has few incidents, and that none of those are of a striking or properly dramatic kind. The dialogue is feeble, and there is absolutely no attempt at character. The dissoluteness of the King is rather too strongly dwelt upon; and from a female pen the developement of such a character is peculiarly indeco rous and disagreeable. It is not quite enough that be cause, as a matter of history, Edward IV. was unquestion ably a libertine, the mete avowal of his opinions oa that score is therefore fit material to regale an audience with. An abundance of wit might cover the defect, but even that (which this play has not) would scarcely excuse it. Henri Quatre and Charles 11., both libertines, are both good characters for the drama ; not because they were libertines, but because their lives were busy and varied, and their spirits adventurous. The great fault in the comedy of which we are speaking, however, is that it is too tame to excite the emotions or interest of the audience. It was ex tremely well performed, and, as far as the actors were concerned, all possible pains were taken for its success. Mr. KEMBLE represented the profligate King with great spirit. Miss ELLEN TREE looked so well, and acted with such grace, as might well excuse a Monarch's de scending from his throne to raise to it so lovely a partner. Mrs. Gnus made the Widow Jolly one of the frankest liveliest dames that has ever been seen or fancied since the Wife of Bath. Mr. BLANCHARD did all that could be done for his part, and Mr. WARDS played Master Wood ville with great propriety and effect. Mr. KEELEY had the part of a half-stupid, half-cunning horse-boy to the King (Jonas Chick), was as humorous as he always is, and dressed himself so as to look like nothing in the world so much as a red-legged partridge. The dresses, in ge neral, were correct, and some of them very splendid.— Some-pretty music, and two agreeable ballads, by Mr. A. LEE, were introduced by Miss Forum, who sang them extremely well, end was encored in the last. The comedy was very well received, frequently applauded, and its repetition for Tuesday night was announced without the slightest mark of disapprobation. The Duke and Duchess of CLARENCE, With their suite, arrived in a Government yacht, having a steamer in company, about seven o'clock on Saturday evening off Brighton, from Dieppe. A royal salute was fired on the approach of the vessels, and the tender dis played a number of fine rockets. The chain pier was crowded to excess by company waiting to see their Royal Highnesses land. The Duke and Duchess landed soon afterwards. The ladder attached to the chain pier was decorated with three rows of lamps up to the signal posts. Admiral Sir ROBERT OTIVAY, and several other naval officers, received their Royal Highnesses on landing, the company assembled greeting them with loud acclama tions. The Duke and Duchess entered their carriage, which was at the end of the pier, and proceeded to the York Hotel, where a large crowd was assembled, who cheered the Royal guests. Among the Nobility and Gentry at the York Hotel were the LORI) CHANCELLOR and Lady LYNDHURST, the Marchioness of DOWNSHIRE, the MasTmit of the ROLLS, the Countess of JERSEY, Baron SANDY'S, Lady MARY HILL, Sir ROBERT and Lady OT WAY, Sir ROBERT and Lady WIGRAM, Captain and Mr•. GEORGE SZYMOUR, i Irs. FITZHERBERT, &C. Their Royal Highnesses sat down to dinner at eight o'clock. The band of the I lith Ifussars attended during the evening. The Duke and Duchess would, it was expected, leave Brighton yesterday morning for their residence in Bushy park. DRURY-LANE.—In consequence of the death of Mr. WALLACE'S eldest son, Mr. LISTER'S new tragedy, called Epicharis, could not be performed on Saturday night, as Mr. WALLACE was to sustain in it the part of Caius Pisa. Rienzi was substituted, and the performance went off with as much eclat as, under the circumstances, could be expected. ; The new tragedy is to be played on Wednesday next, as was stated in a hand-bill announcing the postponement, and which was issued at five in the afternoon, and posted in various situations near the theatre.

It is said that THOMAS JERVIS, Esq. K.C. will have the vacant Chief Justiceship of Chester Circuit; but that no colleague or Puisne Judge will be at present appointed.

The Bishop of DURHAM has put four Catholic Gentlemen into the Commission of the Peace for that county. REPRESENTATION OF GALWAY TOWN.— Mr. OHARA, the present Member, Chief Rernembrancer BLAKE, Mr. ill'lliamorr, and Mr. V. BLAKE, are said to be candidates for the representation of the town of Galway. —Dublin Morning Register. DEATH OF THE:RIGHT REV. DR. KELLY. (From the Waterford Mirror of Saturday.) Died on Thursday morning, the Sth October, a little before eight o'clock, at his home, in King-street, the Right , Rev. Patrick Kelly, D.D. Roman Catholic Bishop of Waterford and Listnore. His memory will hold a dis tinguished place upon the list of exemplary Prelates. Upright in design, firm of purpose, indefatigable in zeal, he was a model of voidance! labour. A disciplinarian he certainly was ; but if he was exact with others, he was severe upon himself. Every day, almo:it every hour, of his prelacy abetted that he required from others nothing eiperior, nothing perhaps equal, to the example which he himself exhibited of determined perseverance in the line of duty.—Other Prelates, within our knowledge, may have shored other praise with him ; but, in unremitting activity, we are free to say that we have net yet seen his equal. Indeed, it is not likely that the ecclesiastical annals furnish many examples to surpass him in this valasble commendation of ever enduring constancy. Could any thing enhance the value cf this zealous discharge of duty ? Yee, the state of his health. At the time when he had scarcely 6eis)aed the visitation of one part of hie extensive diocese but to undertake the visitation of an. other part, after spending Lite short interval in fulfilling in the most humble and most ordinary manner some of the most fatiguing of the duties of an Irish parish priest—at that very time, he was known to ;:Dour under severe in firmity of body. But nothing could dareiT the ardour of his unfired mind. The immediate occasion of his death was an inflammation of the lungs, occasioned by a' heavy cold which lie tools on Wednesday week at the funera of a parishioner, Mr. Edmund Crotty, of the Quay. Dr. Kelly was born at Kilkenny, in April 1779. After receiving his classical education at the Catholic Seminary of Kilkenny, he went in 1797, to St. Patrick's College at Lisbon, in which, having completed the ordinary course of theological and philosophical studies, he was appointed Professor of Philosophy. Having occupied that Chair fur two years, he returned to his native diocese of °gamy in the year 1604, in obedience to the positive commands of his Bishop. He then spent seven years on the mission as Curate, chiefly at Inistiogue and the Roea. In 1811, he was selected to be Professor of Logic and Neutral Philosophy in the Diocesan Seminary of Osaory, and afterwards became President of Birchfield College, near Kilkenny. On the 24th August, 1821', he was consecrated Bishop of Richmond WI Norfolk in Vir ginia in America. He went to America, and, Come clashing of jurisdiction having occurred between him ani Me tropolitan, the Archbishop of Baltimore, a French ecclesi aetie, named Marechtd, the Court of Rome entertained a wish of having him translated to another See. Dr. Walsh, Bishop of Waterford,;happened to die at Rome let October, 1821. It is understood to be the prerogative of the Holy See to nominate to all vacancies occasioned by deaths which occur at Rome. It seldom, however, exercises this prero gative expressly ; an amicable interference is preferred. Accordingly, a letter was written, 2d October, 1821, to the Vicar-General of Waterford, the Very Rev. Dr. Gar rett Connolly, intimating a desire of having Dr. Kelly poe tnlated for. The intimation was complied with. In June, 1822, Dr. Kelly received his bull of translation to this diocese, and lie arrived in Ireland in July, 1822. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING. NEWMARKET, SUNDAY Arraaoeoota. — The ensuing Meeting bids fair to afford ph , nty of sport ; the list con taining- twenty-one Stakes, Matches, and Plates, with the prospect of several others being added to them in the course of the week. Of the Stakes, the two most valuable and influential are the Clearwell Stakes (Tuesday), and the Prendergast Stakes (Friday), both of which are expected to bring out large fields of two-year olds, the one having 33 entries, and the other 25, and including a few horses likely to be brought into the betting for the Derby and aiks, viz. Cetus, Shumla, Cobweb colt, Advance colt, Enema filly ; but, taking the races witk reference to their influence en the great betting stakes of next year, they are less important than usual, very few of the favourites for the Derby having any engagements till the spring. The Clearwell Stakes has only three winners in it—Bud, Cetus, and Fairy ; the first named is not here, and the last has won only a Handicap race, so that Cetus will be the fa►ourite, if publis running has anything to do with the betting. It should be recollected, however, that there is a very strong list against him, and that the two-year-olds this season are remarkably promising. The Prendergast Stakes does not show a single win ner ; the betting therefore, is likely to be favourable for betting round. The Garden Stakes, although it has only four horeta in it, will be a good betting race, each of them having been backed to some amount, in spite of the uncertainty that prevails as to whether Zinganee would be in trim for the post. Coroner has several friends, chiefly from the great improvement evinced by his running at several provincial meetings this season ; the weight is also in his favour, which circumstance can alone give the Luss filly a chance of winning. There are plenty of matches, but only one that possesses any interest, viz. that between Matneltike and Lamplighter for the Whip and 200 sovereigns each, pp. It will be run over the Beaco■ Course on Tuesday, each carrying lOst. according to the condition of the challenge; Lamplighter, being a year older than Mamc luke, at even weights, and a four-mile course, surely ought to win this. In the course of the meeting there will be two or three sales of racing stock, including Brelskoi, Sspio, Fatima, Rivulet, Landscape, Scheme, two or three Partisan foals, eight yearling colts by Muley, one by Bus tard, seven yearling fillies by Muley, and two by Bustard ; being selections from the stud, of Lord Lowther and Alex ander Nowell, Esq. The Whip may be challenged for either to-morrow or Tuesday, and the acceptance must be signified, or the Whip resigned, before the end of the meeting ; if challenged for and accepted, to be run for on Thursday in the second Spring Meeting following, B. C., carrying lost. each, and to stake 200 sous. each. It will be sharp work for the winner of the whip on Tuesday to find a new claimant for it iu the field the same day; unless, however, his Ma jesty shouli challenge for it with Flrnr de Lis (which would make a sporting match), it is not very likely that there will be any other; for Newmarket, at the present time, is poorly off for four mile horses. The Oatlands will be an interesting stakes, and, having now nineteen subscribers, it is not improbable that two classes may be formed. The horses are to be named to-morrow evening, and the stakes run for on Wednesday, and the second class (if any) on Thursday. At the time of sending off our parcel there had been no business done. We have ascer tained that Zinganee has been doing plenty of work lately, and that he took two good gallops this morning. It is thought that he will start for the Garden Stakes to-mor row, but it is doubtful whether Mameluke will came to the post, or be reserved for the match on Tuesday. The No bility, &e• now here are, the Duke of Rutland (at Cheveley); Duke and Duchess of Richmond, Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter, Earl and Countess of Sefton, and the Ladies Molyneux ; Lard George Bentinck, Lord Henry Bentinek, Colonel Peel, Mr. Scott Stonebewer, &c. It is expected that it will be a good meeting, without being brilliant. The weather does not premise favourably, a strong wind and a gloomy sky giving every reason to fear that there will he rain before the commencement of the Race. The turf is in pretty good order. The following are the fixtures for to-morrow:— The Garden Stakes of 100 soya each. T. M. M. Mr. Gully's M:tmeluke, 5 yrs, 9st 41b Lord Chesterfield's Zinganes, 4 yrs, 9st Mr. Sowerby's Coroner, 4 yrs, 7st 911, Sir M. Wood's Luss filly, 3 yrs, 6st 71b.
