PARIS PAPERS. -Wrap' the Journal de* Dlbats of Saturday.l s rAltIS., APRIL 1.9.--There is nothing new from the army. The troops are in full march. The army of Perpignan, which awaits the -arrival of the Duke d'Angouleme on the Ebro, will be in movement from the 20th to the 22d inst. In a few days our 100,000 men will be in a line. Then the 'decisive blows will be struck. Pampeluna and St. Sebastian are invested ; but they have 'not been attacked, and all the rumours which have been circu lated on this point are absurd and ridiculous. Insurrections multiply in the interior of Spain. At half-past seven o'clock an extraordinary courier from London arrived at the Department of Foreign Affairs. Two hours afterwards the Ministers assembled in Council at the residence -of M. de Villele. Yesterday, after - mass, the King transacted business successively with Vitcount de Chateau- Inland, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and AL de rVilloe,,President of the Council. The order 'of embargo which only related to - vessels laden with grain for the enemy, being mis .ilderstood, was enforced in general against all Spanishiships on the first commencement of hos ,rtilities. When this fact was known, the order was forthwith rectifietL It is said that M. Dupau, one of the officers who particularly distinguished themselves at the attack of St. Sebastian, has been nominated by his Royal Highness the Duke d'Angouleme, Lieutenant-Colonel of the Engineer Corps. This officer already owed his former rank of Chief of 'Battalion to his intrepid conduct at the siege of Valencia." [From the Journal de Paris.] Four battalions of the Royal . Guard arrived on the 14th at Tolosa ; Gen. 136uriiiont reached there the day preceding. It appears that the contract which had been made with M. Ouvrard, in the name of M. Victor Otivrard, his nephew, has not received. the ap probation of the Minister at War, because it ap pears that the prices stipulated by it for the provisions to be furnished to the army, would be •too disadvantageous to Government. We learn frOM the Journal de Marseilles of the 12th, that the Maritime Authorities there having been informed by telegraph that our troops occupied - the port of Passage and Fort Isabella, have laid an embargo on such Spanish ships Els were in the port of Marseilles. • A similar measure has been adopted in the ,other ports of the Fifth Maritime Arondissement. The speeches of Lord Liverpool and Mr. Can ning, alike remarkable for their decision and their frankness, and the decline which followed them in the English Funds ; the numerous departures from Calais ; the obstinacy of the Moniteur in not repeating the brief bulletins in the Poile and Journal des DAats ; the silence preserved for three days on the operations against St. Se bastian and Pampeluna ; the dissentious which .are observable among the majority (the friends of the war) ; the great delay in the advance of the fourth corps of the Army of the Pyrenees; letters from Portugal, which speak of the cm tarkatiou of Amarante, after being completely -routed, and the execution of two of his confede rates ; the contents of the Proclamation of a Spa. nish Junta, which announces to the people of the Peninsula, that things are to be restored to the state they were hi 1819 ; the resolution *filet) has been taken on the part of certain 'Powers not to recognise any of the public acts of ..tfte Spanish Government, since 1820 ; the report circulated that an Ambassador has already de ..posited a Note on the subject ; such are to-day the. topics of general discourse, and which appear to have an• influence on the Funds. [Extract from a Private Letter.] IX-ca.CIIAPELLE, 13.—Letters from i'etersburgh,of March 23, say, that Sir Charles .Bagot, the English Minister, had at length succeeded in determining the 'Russian Government not to send any troops to join the French Army of the' Pyrenees.—As soon as these letters from Peters .burgh reached Vienna, the English Chargé d'Affaires addressed si - Note to Prince Metternich, in which the British Oovornment expresses itself decidedly against all participation of the Conti =till Posers in the war between France and Spain.—The Russian Senator, Tatischeff, is still at Vienna,.-.-The slowness or the negoehttions carrying on between Lord Strangfard and the Porte makes the departure of the Russian Minister for Con stantinople More doubtful than ever. Time is necessary to ,knish any work with the Ottoman Porte, for all the dispatches are first sent to Vienna from Constantinople, and thence to St. Petersburgh. The Notes from the Russian Government take the contrary route. SPAIN. Letters from 'Bayonne, dated the 15th instant, euntain the following interesting statements rela tive to the situation of Spain:— The French troops, on entering the Spanish territory, took with' them nine days' provisions. Each soldier carried Ins own share, and the troops complained loudly of this burden. Since this supply has been exhausted, they are but badly off: The .corps before St. Sebastian is obliged to live on pulse and roots. The Asia is cruising before St. Sebastian. A. French brig4n tine, laden with provisiors, has been carried into that port. The provisions were purchased, after which the vessel sailed with prisoners. It was not expected that St. Sebastian would hold out as it had done 1190,000 francs were oilered to the Go *et-nor to induce him to surrender. ' Comity's division has approached Pampeluna, but has not blockaded it, and there it yet free ingress and egress. The garrison consists of only. 40W) men. '1 to local militia of that town, V ittoria; Tolosa, and the other places threatened by the Frencil. have marched to join liallesteros, who has assembled a Inns. of I 'OlO men. Ills head-quarters are at Tarazona, on the skirs of the celebrated position of Moneayo. - Comity and 'notion intend to attack him with three divi sions. If their attack sbould be unsuccessfuli the result in the present state of affairs will probably prove very disastrous for the French, French have not yet got %ancient besieging Artillery for their operations. They are still bringing cannon from Vincennes. Only fifty inhabitants have remained in Trun. Bhlboa has recentiy furnished a volunteer corps between 500 and 000 young men belonging to the principal families. The bridge of Miranda has been destroyed. The French begin already to feel, not only at St. Sebastian, but throughout their whole line, tie deficiency of provisions. Flying columns of guerillas move about between the Pyrenees and the Ebro. The Pastor commands one party of 1,500, and displays all his former activity. These parties hover round the French, harass them, and leave them nothing . to cat (A copt what they have in their immediate possession. Most m urrit orders have been aerie to Bayonne to forward supplies at • any cost or risk. General Morino commands the army of reserve in Galicia. He takes a position between Leon and Astorga with from '15,000 to 20,000 men. FRENCH ARMY IN SPAIN. The fbilowing is said to be the report of a distinguishe Freialt Ultra, accompanying the Duke d'Angouleme int Spain,- and dated r ti•oin bead-quarters, in advance of Tolosa, a Irtth in ttirit: Head-quarters, near Tolosa, April 15. We proceed under convoy with the Prince's head-quarters. We travel through a friendly country, amidst th e most touching oc ciainations a Vivo 4 Reg Fernando ! Viva la Prancia Vlcien las 4m3 us! .The town of Tolosa, which we have jug left, was hung with tapestry and illuminated in the evening.— The:people seem intoxicated with joy ; they express their satis faetion by cries, dancing, and fetes. In our quarters we have been constantly told that we have been long expected, and that the inhabitants are now relieved from the oppression of an ' insignificant number of fools and mad Men who were ruin ing the country. Thus, you see, the French - troops could not have entered Spain under better auspices. Our army is 806:h; and excellent. Covered with dust,. and their complexions already darkened by a southern sun, our soldiers have a mar tial air which imposes on the Spaniards. We were afraid that we should 'find only young conscripts always talking of their papas and mammas, but wehave seen none but gallant troops animated with a passion for glory,obedient to the strictest disci pline, and kept up in excellent condition. The cavalry are line anti numerous. They have respected the clover fields which surround their cantonments, although forage has been for some days very scarce. " Quesada is in advance, at the head of 2 or 3,000 Spaniards, to whom we have given arms. These men, who are quite un disciplined, pillage and rob wherever • they go, and take even the horses of the Spanish post-boys. The doors of the houses are fastened on their approach, and are not opened until the French arrive. There is no exaggeration in what I tell you ! " Every thing promises that our march to Madrid will be only a triumph, if we maintain the discipline of our troops." COVENT GARDEN THEATRICAL FUND. The Eighth. Anniversary of this admired and useful Charity was celebrated yesterday at the Freemasons' Tavern. The recess at the back of the Chair was decorated in the usual manner with the Royal Arms, &c.; and the gallery , was filled at an early hour by some very elegant and interest ing females. At about seven o'clock his Royal Highness the Duke of Yomt took the Chair, amidst the applause of the company ; and about 230 Noblemen and Gentlemen sat down to dinner. The vocal department was, throughout the evening, exceedingly well managed • and on the cloth being removed, Non Nubia wvm performed in excellent style by Sir George Smart, Messrs. Bellamy, Goulding, Broadhurst, Hawes, Fitz william, Evans, Leete, Clark, Smith, Gibbon, &c. The Rohm. CUAIRMAN then proposed the health or the Patron, " The King," which was drank with three times three, and - loud and long continued acclamations. God save the King followed, and was chorussed by the majority of the company. After the customary loyal and national toasts had been pro posed and drank with applause, The Duke of YORK proposed, " Success to Covent Gar den Theatrical Fund," which was drank with unanimous applause. , On the request of the ROYAL CHAIRMAN, made through the mediuni of Mr. Fawcett, Mr. Brehm sang the Death of Nehon. It was a noble effort, and gave general delight. The Earl of Taw KERVILLE then rose to propose a toast. It was one in which he was sure every person present would join with the highest satisfaction. That was the Eight Anniversary on which their Royal Chairman had condescended to preside over their meeting, and he was convinced that the continued patronage of that Illustrious Personage must be esteemed as a proof of the value of the Institution, and the benefits it confer red on those for whose assistance it was founded. His Lord ship. then gave the health of the Royal Chairman, which was received with three times three, and the most enthusiastic ap probation. As soon as the applause had subsided, His ROYAL HIGHNESS rose to express the high satisfaction he had received from the very kind and flattering manner in which the company had been pleased to drink his health. — He was extremely sorry that it had been necessary to postpone the celebration of their anniversary to so late a date, and be feared that his late indisposition might prove detrimental to the interests of the Charity, by causing that delay ; but he sincerely trusted that the company would, by their liberality, remove those doubts; and prove that it was the Charity itself which interested them and commanded their exertions. — His Royal Highness again thanked them for the honour they had conferred on him ; and, on resuming his seat, was loudly applauded. On the health of the Vice-Presidents being drank, Mr. LA:wino)/ presented himself to the Chair. He had been request ed by the Vice-Presidents to return their thanks for the honour which had been conferred on them. And he begged leave to assure the company both on their parts and on his own, that they should be ever happy to contribute every thing in their power for the prosperity of so excellent and useful a cha rity. It was but natural and just that they should endeavour to assist the families of those men, who by the etertion of their talents hail so often afforded theta the highest satisfaction. And he must confess that it was delightful to him to ace a Member of the Royal Family presiding on that occasion—one who had ever been found ready and anxious to advocate the cause of hu manity and the best interests of this country.—(Loud ap plause.)—lt had been his chance to attend many public dinners on charitable occasions, and he had always found one of that Illustrious Family in -the Chair—(Applause)—and he was sure.he should not be accused of flattery in thus bearing an honest evidence of those virtues, the exercise of which must ever render them dear to the heart of every Eng lishman.—(Continued applause.)—He was convinced that lie was only speaking in unison with their feelings, when he expressed his admiration of the talents which had been em ployed in supporting the Drama. It was to actors that they were indebted for many of their most pleasurable hours ; anti many of the noblest associations and sentiments were aroused by their exertions. But, alas ! it too often happened that the noblest ornaments of the stage had been reduced to distress, end it was their duty to come forward with open hands, as they did with warm hearts, and to assure them that they need never dread. that poverty which had too often overtaken their prede cessors.—(Applause.) A humorous song was well sung by Mr. Connor. On the health of Mr. Valve ETT, the Treasurer of the Fund, being drank, he rose and addressed the company as follows : " After so many Anniversaries having passed, any so many repetitions of attendance by the same Noble and Generous Pa trons, the interest you take in the welfare of this Institution is so obvious, that it would be bad taste to waste your time by panegyrising (in general terms) this useful Association. But if circumstances have taken' place within the last year, which will cast a lustre over the munificence of our Donors., which will prove that the Stage has possessed individuals who deserved the great iaterest that has been bestowed upon it; and if recent events will evince the incalculable utility of this most excellent Dramatic Fund ; I trust it will be admitted that I should not suffer such things to pass without detailing them, and, as well as nly humble abilities will admit, pour forth the grateful than. I.s of myself and coadjutors, for the inestimable blessings scatt red by you amongst our unfortunate brethren. , [l!.a.c Mr. Fawcett gave an extract from a pamphlet enumer ati: the various qualifications requisite to forma perfect actor; al.' .ism continued.] 'Pease, Gentlemen, are said to be some of the requisites es , utial to a finished actor. To expect there should be many actem perfectly qualified, would be unreasonable ; to say there 1 nee .;r was one so gifted, would be unjust; I may say, that mourn fhl remembrance presents to toy mind one in whom these per fee,ions were all united—(A burst of approbation)—an actor NO out we have but lately lost—(Continued applause)—and one who justly stood rich in the respect of every dramatic critic possessed of taste and learning. It must be confessed that the eadOwnients I have enumerated are a rare combination of the gifts of nature, and the acquirements of art—but John Kemble enjoyed them in an eminent degree; and if I am permitted to touch upon his moral character, and to declare that he was an afthctionate relative, a steady friend--(Applausc) —and an exemplary Christian ; then, Gentlemen, I think the Stage may he proud indeed of having possessed such a member ; m and I should ill discharge y duty as its advocate, to suffer this day i p pass without offering my feeble tribute to his ire- mory. Great, however, as Mr. Kemble was, we have now only to lament the man, for the actor had made his bow to you some years back. But, Gentlemen, we are called upon now to lament another loss, to us heavy indeed; one which I may, perhaps, be permitted to call, not more a pub lic loss, than to us a domestic calamity—a loss which every Gentleman, who has been in the habit of frequenting our meeting, will not fail, on this day, to be painfully reminded— he " who was wont to s e t th e table in a roar '—he whom our Illustrious Chairman so often graciously condescended to encourage in delighting us with his York! you're wanted ! is no more. As John Kemble might be called the Sir Joshua Reynolds of his art, so .John Emery may fairly be styled the Morland of it—for truth and nature, archness and simplicity, lie was as conspicuous on the stage, as for suavity, integrity, and every manly feeling, off it. lam sure, Gentlemen, it must be a heartfelt Satisfaction to you to know, that by your support of this Institution, we have been enabled to Assist our de. parted friend's family with 751. per annum, 40/. to his widow, and 35/. to his aged mother. lam aware it has been said that our poor friend should not have had occasion for this assistance ; and it is one of my chief inducements for entering on this sub ject to rescue his memory from the aspersion. I know the contrary to be the fact. I know what his income was, and I fearlessly declare, ,that with his feeling heart and numerous family, it was not possible for him to be beforehand with the world, much less (cut off as he was in the prime of his exist. enec) could it be expected that he should be independent.' I confess I loved him—every body who knew him must have done so—for in him were combined a rare assortment of talents, blend ed with an extraordinary . proportion of good nature, good hu mour, anti every companionable qualification. Ile was a painter by taste, a musician by education, a poet by necessity, and an actor by nature.—( Great applause.) " Gentlemen, i this Institution had done nothing beyond the assistance it has afirded my poor friend's family, I am sure there is not an individual who ever subscribed to it, but would think his patronage well bestowed ; but 1 assure you, we have as many humble claimants whose necessities are as imperious (though their talents were not so conspicuous), who entirely look up to us for support. I therefore do most fer vently intreat you on this day to continue your liberality, and I pledge myself that it shall be administered with promptitude, iMpartiality, and gratitude." The Address was admirably delivered, and produced a strong sensation throughout the company. The,next toast was, " Prosperity to Covent Garden Theatre, which was received with loud applause ; and Captain FORBES returned thanks. " The Memory of Mr. Coitus" was then drank in silence. On the " Committee of Management" being drank with applause, Mr. CONNOR expressed his acknowledgments. Mr. FAWCETT then rose to propose " Prosperity to Drury lane Theatrical Fund " Ile remarked, that whatever rivalry there might exist between the two Theatres, it could only be with respect to the entertainments they presented to the public ; but when the cause of charity was to be advocated, it was as much their interest to wish the prosperity of that Institution as of the one to which they were more immediately attached.— (Applause.)—The toast was then drank with three times three. The Rcei - AL CuAirorAar then gave, as a parting toast, " The Ladies ;" which was drank with acclamation. The evening throughout was highly entertaining, and the satisfaction it gave general. In the course of the evening Mr. Fawcett announced the subscriptions, which amounted to 10421. lls., (including 100/. from his Majesty)) a sum, as Mr. Fawcett remarked, far exceeding all expectations, from the unfortunate circumstance of the Royal. President's indisposition, which had delayed the festival to an unprecedented period, and its falling on a play night, when many of their professional brethren were necessarily absent. In the course of the evening Misses Paton and Ilallande each favoured the company with a song, which were much applauded. Taylor, Yates, and Broad hurst also exerted themselves with the happiest effect, and were rewarded with unanimpus approbation. 1 Royal Chairman did not retire till nearly 12, when he left the room amidst loud applause. E lIIGHLAN I) SOCIETY of LONDON • Cann nan Cadheul an guaillbh a cheile. A General Court of the Highland Society of London was held, for the dispatch of business, at the Free- Masons' Tavern, on the 19th instant, Lord SALTOUN and ABERNETHY, President of the Society, in the Chair. The Meeting was most numerously attended, and the costume of Old 'Gaul was observed by all the Members. Many of the earliest and most effective supports of the Society were present, among whom were, General M 4 Leod, of the Madras service, Mr. M‘Gilvray of Blinn' Gluiidhcal, Colonel Stewart of Garth, Mr. Alexander Macdonald, Mr. Grant Allan, Mr. Longlands, Mr. Duncan of Damside, Mr. Guthrie, Mr. Innes, &c.—The minutes of the proceedings of the Committee of Management were submitted to the Court and confirmed. The Meeting then proceeded to the Election of new Members, some of whom were present, and severally acknowledged the honour which they considered had been done them, in 'being admitted into the Institution. After the business of the Meeting had been dispatched, Col 'STEWART rose to propose a Toast, which he was certain would meet with the cordial concurrence of every individual present. The Highland Society of London grew from small beginnings, anti had. already established many branches of it at h om e and abroad—in. Asia, Africa, and America. He enlarged on the incalculable benefits which the Society had done to Scotland in particular; by means of the kindred Institutions which it had there set on toot ; ; and among these advantages he accounted not the least—that of keeping in the world's remembrance that the Gael, though forming a part of the same political commu nity with their neighbouring fellow-subjects, were virtually. as distinct from them, and from all other people, as a difference of language, usages, costume, and character, could render them. In meetings of this description there was much to keep alive this remembrance ; and there was no question but that the oh. servance of their dative costume on such occasions, created in the breasts of Scotchmen feelings of satisfaction and of pride, which would render such Meetings always welcome and well attended. In speaking of the Highland,Dress, lie observed, that the phelibe g was the, attire which nature seeme d to have a ppointed for a Scotch Celt.: Sec him in his Kilt, and he walks uprightly and with ease ; but when his limbs are hampered with breeches, his gait is awkward, sluggish, and slouching, as if labouring under a burden. When lie considered the Pa triotic purposes for which the Society had been incorporated— the great g ood it had done—and the spirit with winch it was upheld, he was certain that he could not propose a Toast more acceptable to the Meeting than Prosperity and Success to the HIGHLAND SOCIETY Of LONDON.' ( Loud Applause, and drank with three limes three.) Mr. MaeomvuAr in the course of the evening, Me to pro pose the Health of a G en tleman present--a most respectable Member of the Society, whose great pleasure it was to befriend his countrymen, and who had lately done a most essential ser vice to all Ilighlandmeti, and to the Highlands,.--he meant Colonel Stewart of Garth, whose late Work, " "The History of the Highland Regiments," had filled up a blank in the annals of that portion of Great Britain. Every native of that country, and every one connected with it, were obliged to him for the valuable information lie had therein communicated. lie had furnished the world, amongst other interesting matter, with many a detail of National peculiarities and individual worth— instructive, and amusing to every reader, and which in the lapse of time would otherwise have been totally forgotten. Ile (Mr. Macgilvray) had great pleasure, therefore, in proposing the Health of Colonel Stewart of Garth.—( Applause.—Drank with three times three.) ColonelSTEwanT, in returning thanks, claimed to himself no merit in what lie bad written. Ile had favourable oppor tunities for observing the manners of his Countrymen at home and elsewhere : he had stated facts which .he thought it his duty to record. lie was most happy fo find that his efforts, such as they were, had been approved of by a body of men which he respected so much ; and he was gratified that the honour just done him had been proposed by a Gentleman, to whose able and unswerving support the Society owed so much; (Loud cries of hear, hear ! ) Among the toasts given front the Chair were the following : " An High" (The Bing)--" Diuchd Ablain is an Teaghlach Rioghair (The Duke of York and the Royal Family).--- " Ceannsuidh a Choinuinn" (The President of the Society)— " Lady Saltoun."—Mr. Ma%ilvray—" ileneral Macleod"— " Peachd an nigh air muir is air tir" (The Army and Navy) —" Eirin Nellie" (The Emerald Isle). • The best good humour prevailed, as usual, throughout the . evening. Gow's band was much in request, and the Society's piper played a few piobraclids in good style. JAMES SAYERS, ESQ.—We feel mach regret in announcing the death of this Gentleman. Ile was taken ill on Saturday last, at his house in Cur zon-street, May-fair, and died on the following day. Mr. SAYERS had been long known in Li terary, Political, and Graphic circles. He was originally in the profession of the Law, but had retired many years. He first displayed his poet ical talents, and his skill as an Artist, in sketching the likenessess of most of the Legal and the Political Characters of his day.— The most celebrated production of his pencil was at the time when the late Mr. Fox intro duced his memorable Bill into Parliament, the purpose of which was to invade, if not wholly to "airy, the Charter of the East India Company. He published a Print, representing the entrance of CARLO KHAN into Leadenhall-street. Mr. Fox appeared sitting on an Elephant in Asiatic attire. The face of the El e p hant was that of Lord Nonni., so on after the junction of those gretit Statesmen, who had vowed an eternal political enmity towards each other. The public disgust excited by that junction received a consi derable addition when this satirical print ap peared. Mr. SAYERS wag a satirical poet of no ordinary description, anti the memorable poem of. ELIJAH'S MANTLE, WiliCll has often been attributed to other writers, was written by him, and we had the pleasure to receive it from himself, as well as his poetical Epistle to Mr. WINDSOR, which, in point of humour, wit, learn ing, and spirit, ought to hold a distinguished rank among the effusions of British Genius. Mr. SAYERS was one of the ANCIENTS of Staple Inn, and has often enlivened the social circle of that Society by his humour, as well as gratified them • with his information. He had reached the seventy : fifth year of his age, and retained his mental I faculties in full vigour till he was assailed by the illness which has deprived his numerous friends I of an agreeable and intelligent compnion.

SOLEM QUl.i DICERE I , ,,LsUM .4UDEAT 2 LONDON, TUESDAY, APRIL 22, 1823. We are still without any further important news from France or the Peninsula, since the receipt of the intelligence which we laid before our Readers on Saturday. There is an ominous silence respecting the movements of the French army, which we hope will only be broken by the annunciation of something favourable to Spain. — The last Telegraphic Dispatch (inserted in our Paper of yesterday) was only remarkable for its brevity, as it simply announced that the Frerich advanced guards - tad entered Vittoria and Bilbao. In some of the London version§ of this Dispatch, the first five paragraphs of our Fo reign Intelligence of this day, taken front the Journal des Debats, have been curiously enough embodied, by the inattention of the translators; and the pompous nothingnesses which the Journal des Debuts puts forth, in the absence of all news, have thus accidentally been made to appear as the official statements of the Major-General GUILLEMINOT The following information was this morning posted at Lloyd's.—(The capture of this Spanish corvette, our Readers will observe, was previous to any declaration of war,— previous to the actual commencement of hostiliaies, and at a period even when the French Government were making pro• fessions of their anxiety for the maintenance of Peace !—How can they justify this piratical cap lately received ture of a Spanish vessel) : line, nn her rpfse m oeidlrri i ip l ao i E t ro a suf r trp y ooat phn f oei o esu. r i o tev with passage I:l;ssia trea sureollgdew hood." eiblcccioßiaealaapit ranistrietuutildA al‘viettritycclionsii6d.—eral‘bli:eat ai i e o a 11 a t o s this was this moroillg outsit [ vti E else4 X 4 t nj r l a Saoel e rnavTnt t i o f a Letter frdortedthel2AthgeAnytsrilto.ployd's, at 3gla'rbs t u i e r : " An order, by telegraph, received by the Authorities of this port to 1 3 Y an embargo on all Spanish vessels.
