EDINBURGH, JAN, 30.—We Are informed, that last week a Guineaman cast anchor at Luing, and an American Ship in Loch Crinan, Argyllshire, where they remained some days, without commu. nication with the shore, and unnoticed, until it was observed that several bodies were landed, and buried on the beach, This circumstance exciting alarm, precautions were immediately taken to prevent any communica tion with the country ; and when our accounts came away the Lieutenancy Of Argyllshire w e re sitting at Inverary deliberating on what further measures should be pursued. The Guineaman bid sailed to Ireland, but the American ship remained in Loch Crinan on Sunday. The Lech,:yan, M7Ew ttr, totally tarecked,on the ISch Dec. at Villa Franca. The Vidoty, Wits AT LEI Y, from Limerick to Lon. don, h on shore in the Shannon, and ftt;l cif wa d er part of the cargo landed. The 'Pieria, NRWAY, from Liverpool to Africa, is captured near the River Congo. Crew arrived at Rio Janeiro, DUKE OF Y >Rk. Thur.day completed the aoth year that the DuEB of - Nous has had the command of the Coldstream Regiment of Foot Guards, on which occasion His Royal Highness gave, a most sumptuous dinner, at WILLIS'S Rooms, to all the Officers who now be. long to the regiment, or have belonged to it during that time, to the number of about one hundred and fifty. At half past five o'clock His Royal Highness took the chair ; Lord CAVAN took his seat on the right .of His Royal Highness, and the Dolt of CUMBERLAND on his left. Lord CHARLES So. *mum Sir- WATSON, Generals CALVERT, WYNYARD, LENOX, BURRARD, and BROWNRIOG, were likewise at the head of the table. After dinner Non Nobis, Pem;Ne, was sung with very fine effea by the three KNYVETTS, GALE, LEETE, and SALE, .whom we were happy to ob., serve perfealy recovered from his late indisposition. The Du then gave, " The Kt me," with three times three. - Rule Britimuia folloWad, which was sung by the whole company, accompanied by His Royal High. tins's Band. " The QuELN and PAINC3 of WALLS," with three times three. The DUKE of CUMBERLAND gave, " The DUKE of Yo K, and the Twentieth Anniversary." DrGNUM sung a song, written on the occasion, on the Coldstream Regiment, which was extremely well received. In the course of the evening a number of excellent Glees were sung by the K N varrs, SA !Woke, and LUTA. Messrs. DIGNUM, TAYLOR, and GIB. nom, sung a number of Songs. and His Royal Highness's Band played a number of martial pieces. The Entertainment was under the direCcion of the FICIOARTHUR.UPTON, and General WYNYARD and it is supposed will cost his Royal Highness 5001. The Royal .DUKEEI left the room a short time before twelve o'clock. TH a THEATRE..—The reception which the New Comedy of ". Oa Honey Moon" experienced on its repetition at Drury.l.ane Theatre last night abun. dandy confirmed. the favourable report we gave of it. The Piece has been shortened, but the pruning knife may still be applied to it with gond effect, not only because it is upon the whole much Eno long, but because there are many parts in it that are weak and languid. If it has no great pretensions to ori. ginality, except in the sentiments and sallies of fancy, it is a very pleasing and interesting melange. It:certain'y wants no support that the Performers Can give to it. EL LISTON and Miss DUNCAN conspicuously take the lead, but BANNISTIA, WitOUGHTON,. ' CoLLI Miss MELLON, and Miss Da CAN? deserve a very favourable mention, as well as MATHEWS, who renders his little part very efFeCtive. The Play is apparently settled in the good opinion of the Public, and will probably be very attradive. A new Concert Room was opened en Thursday, near Ruisell.square, with a eharthing exertion of musical skill f under the patronage of the Duke and Duichess of RIDEORS...- More than two hundred of the Subscribers attended ; and the entertainment the toncert afforded will most probably increase its attradion. A grand Overture by WINTER opened the Concert. In the course of the evening W sic H. said, gave a Concerto on the Violin in an admir. able style. The composition was his own, 'and it was most excellent. BEAHAM and Mrs. SECOND Were the Vocal Performers, and both acquitted them. selves very ably. Mrs. SECOND cornea from a musi. cal family deservedly respened for their talents, and she is a very charming _Performer._ - - The Concert was succeeded by a Ball, under the condua of Mr. SECOND, who presided aver the Balls at the NEW AMATQUIL CONCEE.T4 held last year in the Hanover.square Ro.mo. Indeed the Entertainments we now notice, may be consi. dered as a continuation of the elegant amusements which were so highly patronized at that place. Music.--The Anniversary Dinner of the Mem bers of the New Musical Fund took place on Thursday last at the Crown and Anchor Tavern.— The Hon. Joint •SPENCItIi f a Gentleman of well. known taste and genius in Music, took the Chair, and the room was numerously attended by Pro. lessors and Amateurs. The Chairman delivered an interesting Athirees to the meeting on the subject of the. Institution, stating the services it had rendered to the unlottunate, but declaring that the Society would be under the melancholy necessity of di. minishing the annuities, unless the revenues . were increased. According to, this Gentleman's state . went, 9,2251. had been distributed among unfor. .tunate Members, their widows and 'children.-- The effect of this Address was suitable to the; wishes of the benevolent Chairman ; and will, no, doubt, be foUnti in the augmented revenues of the. Institution. The, day passed off with the utmost . conviviality, and a varied display of musical, science and vocal ability. D'EoviLLn has contradifte'd a letter from STE I. BELT, the Composer, that appeared in the public prints, in which the latter asserted, that the Music for the New Ballet at the Opera House was ready.. D'Eomot, supported by the authority of the Manager, positively declares that the Music was not ready. We may repeat the old couplet : " Strange that such clilFeretu:e should be, " W iXt swear dum and tweedls des." A young Lady, in the Pump-room, at Bath, on being complimented by a friend, on her improved appearance, accused the complimentor as being guilty of flattery ; who, to .refute the reproach, with suitable effervescence and jocoseness, declared, that she was grown as plump as a partridge. " I suspenecl you of flattery o.lly, in the first place," replied the sprightly Belle, " but now I perceive you are absolutely making game of rue." We have the satisfaCtion to state, that tit R M.

It has been intimated from authority to the Merchants,- that it will be adyisahle to be very citcumipeet in their undertalcingsfro'n those parts; and Christiansand, in Norway, is named as_ the pro. bable place for performing a long quarantine. C~' . - Yesterday, a Court of - Common Council was' holden at the Chamber of Guildhall, at whieh were present, the LORD MAYOR, ten .Altiereen, the Recorder, and a great number of Commoners, principally for the purpose of considering the bye. laws, rules, maims, and regulations' for th' Port of London, and the election of a junior Cletk. in the Court of Requests, in the room JANIRs STEVRtts, deceased.
