Imperfect as our .present - _knowledge is of the internal condition of Spain,—of the real dispositions of the majority of 'her population, fatigued as they must be by so many years of war with but a short interval of repose;—and of the extent of her resources,—it would be the height of presumption to hazard predictions on the final issue of the struggle. The French Ultra Journals represent the adherents of -the Faith as daily increasing numbers and confidence, and as being already 'sufficiently powerful . to effect it counter-revolution, even without French assistance ' , The Spanish Papers, on the other hand, and the Official Declara tions of the Constitutional Authorities, speak of the insurgents with contempt, and ex press the utmost confidence in their own power to maintain the national independence against the united efforts of foreign enemies and domestic traitors. The reports of. private persons who have traversed , different sections of the Peninsula are as contradictory and irre . concileable as these more public representations, —some asserting that scarcely any Constitution . alists , . were to be njet with in arms, while the roads swarmed with the partisans of the Faith, and others affirming, on the contrary; that the country was in most districts.nearly cleafed of the insurgents, and that the utmost enthusiasm was every where manifested in favour of the Con stitution, and to oppose the most determined re sistance to the French. Amidst these conflicting statements, wt have received a communication from Bayonne, from a quarter on which we place great reliance, and which throws considerable light on the question. Our Correspondent informs us, that Lord FITZROY . SOMERSET, on his way to Paris, had a long conference with the Duke d'Axaour.ENfc, and that, in, reply to the ques tions of his Royal Highness, his Lordship gave' it as his decided opinion that no reliance what ever could he placed by the French on the co operation,of the Army of the Faith,—that on the contrary his Lordship believed that they would desert, almost to a man, on entering Spain, and would even plunder the French magazines when ever an opportunity should e'er ! Our Cm-- respondent, however, adds, that notwithstand ing all the reports to the contrary, the. French army is well appointed, and was in a Condition to take the field with vigour, MINA, he Pays, has 20,000 men under his command.

It describes • the mode in which he escaped from the Luxembonrg Palace, and re lates all the incidents 'of his journey till he reached tile Austrian territory. What must' be thought of the advisers of this venerable Monarch, who, after all he suffered under the horrors of revo lution and the usurpation of his throne, would ex pose him to new perils at his advanced period of . life, by involving him in a War contrary to his own declared principles and desires. The work is cal culated to excite a strong general interest, on account of the circumstances which it records, as well as on that of the distinguished Narrator.

The Duke of DEVONSHIRE, on Tuesday last, gave a grand theatrical Fete to a considerable number of the higher orders, in his elegant mansion at Chiswick. The first piece was the Comedy of Town and Country. A new Prologue (the original Prologue was written by Mr. TAYLOR), the composition of the Hon. GEORGE LAMBE, the spirited translator of CATULLUS, is very creditable to the poetical talents of the author, and re. ceived ample justice from the manner in which it was delivered by the Duke of DEVONSHIRE. 'The dramatic characters were assigned as follows : Plaitic - - The Hon. G. How Ann. Trot - - - - Lord A. HILL. Cosey - - - Hon. GEORGE LAMUE. The Rev. Owen Glenroy - Earl of CLARE. Reuben Glenroy - - Lord NoRMABY. Captain Gletiroy. - • HOR:SEYMOURBATIIIIRST Lord G .joss HILL. The Hon. MTS. Olextroy - Countess of TANXERV IL LE. Rosalie Somers - Lady NORIitANBY. Mrs. Moreen - Miss PIIEMANTLE• Mr. BUTLER D'AxvEßs acted as Prompter on the occa sion, and the spirited correctness with which the characters in general were supported, rendered his part nearly a sinecure. In fact, the taste and judgment with which the comedy was in general represented, would not have been discreditable to a re gular theatre. The farce was A Rowland fur an Oliver, and the parts Were thus allotted : Sir Marie Chase - - Lord A. Mut., Mr. Selbourne . - Hon. G. Ilowann. Hon. Alfred Ilighflyer - Lord NORMANRY. Fixture . •- - Hon. G. LastuE. Mrs. Selbourne - BUTLER DIANVERS Maria Darlington - Lady NOR-MAXEY. Mrs. Fixture - - - bliss FREMANTLE. The . Farce received as ample justici as the Comedy. It might be invidious to select any of the noble performers, male or female, and therefore we shall only repeat, that they support.. ed their characters with appropriate humour, feeling, and precision. Mr. MORTON is the author of both the Pieces, and he may well be proud of so honourable a tribute to his dra made talents. The whole of the representation seemed to aflbrd great pleasure to the select friends of the Noble Host, among whom we observed Lord and Lady ,Gtwev ILLE, Lord and Lady 0. 31 OUPEi` it, the Misses II o wAIII3 and several other distinguished members of the fashionable world. After the final dropping of the curtain the Supper Rooms were opened, and the Guests were treated with . a refreshing banquet, that well corresponded with the Intellectual fare which had so highly gratified the Company, and was marked with every trait of ele gant and splendid hospitality. MR. AND MRS. BALL. MARGATE, APRIL 9.—Mr. and Mrs. Hughes Ball ar rived at' Broadstaits, in Thanet, on Monday, at three o'clock, r.st.

SINGULAR MARRIAGE CUSTOM AT THE ISLAND OF •SANTA MAURA. Tram KENDRICK'S lonia Isktuds.i At the break of day the bridegroom is placed i n a kind of small car, drawn by two men, and conducted in front of his father-in-law's house. Here he remains until ten o'clock, im ploring_ the charity pe all passers-by, who generally throw a small piece of coin into the basin he holds. At ten o'clock•he is released from his situation, and invited to enter the house of his father-in-law, who greets him ; adding, in conclusion, " that with so laborious a man, his daughter must be happy." !the couple are then conducted to church and married. It is usual to place the bridal bed upon four men's shoulders, 'who convey it to the husliand's residence, together with all sorts of culinary articles. ' ' • Tut THEA.Tar.—After a long interval, the Comic Opera of The Cabinet was brought for ward last night at Drury-Lane Theatre. It was originally represented at the other Theatre, and was one of the most popular dramas of Mr. T. DIIIDIN. The principal characters were thus assigned last night : - -Orlando, Mr. BRAIIAM ; CUMISO, Mr.. GA T.TI E m L Marquis, r. 2ITZWI•' LI AM ; Lorenzo, lir. HORN ; Whimsiculo, Mr. HARLEY ; Peter, Mr. Dow.rox ; Constantia, Miss FORDE ; Leonora, Mrs. AUSTIN ;_ Floretta, Miss STrenENs.—The music-of this Opera was the joint production of MT. BRAIIAM and the late Mr. ItEEYES. The performance last night was alto gether chiefly a musical treat, but there was also a display of theatrical merit in some of the comic characters. The duet by BRAIIAM and Miss STEPHENS " The Bird in yonder cage confined," was so well sung as to demand , an encore, as well as the popular Polacca by BRARAM. Mrs. AUSTIN improves in her musical exertions, and Miss FORDE acquitted herself very well in a difficult bravura. The rest of the ch arac t ers were tolerably well supported, and this o pi n i on was manifested by the aplause of a numerous audience. Poi R Y. TO THE COMBAT, SPAIN !

The rustic manner of the Gael set some young women who were at the counter a-giggling, and the shop man, willing to afford them sport, began to play off his small wit upon the stranger. " So, good man, ye wan 4 a piece of scarlet ? Would you know scarlet If you saw ?"- 44 I tink I would," replied the Mountaineer. The shopman threw down a piece of blue' cloth : Is that scarlet ? " Hout, no, no ! that no be it." A piece of green cloth was produced ; the same question was repeated, and received a similar answer, to the great amusement of the querist and• his female friends, who were at no pains to con ceal their mirth. The Highlander took revenge in his own way. lie put his nose to the cloth, and affected to judge of the colour by the smell. The shopman, at his request, did the same, but the instant he bent his nose towards the counter, the Highlander seized him by the ears, and made his nasal protuberance come in such violant contact with the boards, that the blood sprung from it. " Tat," said the Highlander, 46 is to colour o'scarlet tae ye noo, lad," and be walked away.— , (Glasgow raper.) THE ARMY. The. 72d.
