Sifts of the Guards has also set out for the road to Andalusia, where it is to take up temporary positions by detachments, which indicates the 'approaching return of the King, who is expected at Madrid on the 21st, with the Duke d'Angou leme. It is Morillo who has seized the galleons com ing from Manilla. The Junta of Purification has received orders from the Reency to verify within ten days the titles of the functionaries threatened with the loan of their employments, and of those who are to recover their situations. Every thing is preparing at Aranjuez for the reception of their Alajesties. The King will ar 'rive at Madrid on Nov. (.); and the town is quite intoxicated with joy. Another Decree of the King has ordered the dissolution of the Army. His Majesty has sent the Collars of the Golden Fleece to the Prince of Carignan, and the Chief of the French staff, Count Guitleminot. The same honour has been conferred on the Duke of Rijar, gentleman of the hed-chatnber, who served his Majesty in this capacity constantly at Cadiz, stud on the Count of Corres. Among the persons who are to be sent away from Madrid, are the Nobles of Spain ‘vlio serv *a in the voluntary Militia of the Cortes, and their number is said to amount to eleven. It is said:that the Duke del Parque, the Prince of Anglona, the Marquis of Alcaniz, and the Duke of Abrautes, will be banished from the kingdom. At the.time when RiegO was passing through liancanires,-a regiment of cavalry (Constitu tionals) had advanced from Estramadura, with the:intention, it was supposed, of carrying him off. The regiment of Cuirassiers de Berry made preparations to attack them, when of a sudden the others, amounting to 470 horse, demanded and obtained an honourable capitulation. This was the fine regiment of Lusitania. SaVILLa, OCT. 9.--(Bt/ 'Express).—Their Ma jesties, as well as the Infantes, continue to enjoy the most perfect health. This morning, at ten o'clock, they went out on foot, and repaired to the Patriarchal and Metropolitan Church, to at tend Te Deum. The troops were drawn up on their passage. • Their Majesties were conducted in procession tip to the.' principal altar, where the King was Seated on a chair, under a canopy, and the In fentes in places near his Majesty. The Te Deum was sang with a full orchestra, and the ceremony was magnificent. At noon, all the civil and military bodies of the town were admitted' to kiss the King's hand ; and his Majesty granted to the Ecclesiastical body the precious favour of being the first pre sea ted.. S MLLE ) OCT. 10.—The Duke of Angouleme passed through here going to Carmona. He was received with the greatest enthusiasm. His second interview of the King was the most moving thing possible. The Princes and the Princesses expressed their gratitude to him with a grace and a vivacity which words cannot describe. It was delightful to them to salute in their Liberator a Prince of their own family. MAItttID, OCT. 14.—Our Journals publish the following extract from a Report made by the Military Commandant of Cabra to the Military .Commandant at Cordova : received yesterday the important news of the occupation of Cadiz by the brave French troops, our allies. Immediately. I caused the official notice of this event to he pnblished, which excited transports of joy among the whole faithful population of this town ; hut, unfortunately, this town is the head-quarters of the troops under General liallasteros, and the whole of his soldiers, from the first to the last, are deeply imbued with those mischievous principles with which they infected our soil. " These incorrigible revolutionists had the audacity to tear down the official notice. They show themselves on every point unfaithful to the convention of Aug. 4. What has preserved these guilty.propensities in them, have been the perverse and milkman intentions of General Liallasteros, who spread among them the proclamation which the King was forced to sign at Cadix under the daggers of his enemies. "The Revolutionists profit by this piece to dare a nd th reaten the Royalists. This state of things cannot he changed till the troops are sent away who are so much opposed to the sovereign trot' the King, our master.' " (Wire, Oct. 7." Puts, OCT. 20.—The Duke of Dino is ap pointed a Lieutenant-General. Count de La rochejaquelin, Brigadier-General, supplies his plaCe as Commandant of the brigade of Cuirras siers of the Garde Royale. • Orders have been given for the disbanding the corps of aallasteros, and measures taken for the prompt execution of these orders. [From El Espectador of Oct. 1.1 [The first article under the head of Cadiz is the Proclamation of ,King Ferdinand, dated Cadiz, September 30, and published In Tux Sox of Saturday last.] Senores Alava y Torres returned last night from Puerto de Santa Maria. The enemy's squadron, consisting of 20 large vessels, con. tinues is observation. At three o'clock in the evening, a Spanish flag of truce sailed for Puertode Santa Maria. The whole of yesterday has been passed in anxiety and un certainty. "What will die Constitutional Government do ?" " What will his Majesty say ?" Such are the questions which have been asked byevery one. At length a Manifesto by his Majesty, published last night, has soothed the public mind, and calmed the existing disquietude, in as far as it could be ,aalined in the situation in which we are placed. The General of the 'French army having long since made it be understood by Ins Majesty's Government, that means might be found for bringing abeut.a decorous accommodation which might termi nate the evils that afflict the country, the Ministers endea voured to ascertain the intentions of those who are charged with the task of compelling Spain by force of arms to make reforms in her, fundamental law. The events of Seville afforded either a motive or a pretext for the Count of Carthigena to renounce his obedience to the Consti tutional Government. Not many days had elapsed before this event WAR followed by the capitulation of General Ballasteros with one of the enemy's Generals, Count Molitor. This new blow to the Coustitutinnalists threw us into a state of the greatest affliction. All the resources of the Government were now reduced to the small army of the valiant Mina, to whom, whatever may be our future lot, history will assign the first plebe among the men worthy to be called Spaniards, who have perfenned their part during this greet crisis ; a weak division intended to form a basis for organizing an army in Extrema dura, the command of which had just been instructed to General Palencia ; and to the possession of some strong places still in the Tower of the Constitutionalists, because their defence had beep ,intrtuopi to Spaniards who valued the honour of their country area the eat* of national independence, whatever opi nion's thermight have formed as to the perfection or imperfrec . tion of our political institutions. The third army, which, weak in numbers as it was, had I been created out of nothing by the gallant and truly a honour. a ble General Don Jose Zayas, to whom the men of I parties, and even hie cum - race, will one day do justice, was in trusted to Camp Marshal Don Rafael del Riego ; but that Conamander, within a few days after ,he joined the army, found his force so reduced, that lie could undertake no operation of consequence against the enemy. The siege of the • Gaditanian Island was in- the mean time prosecuted in the most active manner by land and sea, while the Govern ment hid no hope ' of auecmtr. England—to whom the Gonad tutional Government of Spain had appealed, 'presenting bases which showed how much we had lowered our former preten. sions,,in our anxiety for that interference to which England had indicated a disposition from the comencenient of the war, intimated through the medium of her Ambassador, who had been in Gibraltar since the entrance of the French into Seville, that she would only interfere in the case of the Cabinet of the Tuileries assenting to it; but that she would not compromise herself in any way which might displease France. The French Governmentliad haughtily contemned every interference, and more particularly that of Great Britain. Would to Heaven, that the Cabinet of St. James's may one day deplore the effects of its anti-liberal policy and still more may it please God, that the Spaniards may for ever do without the Government of the Britons, and that they may be eternally the allies of its enemies t The French, in consequence of their immense force in com parison with ours, which amounts scarcely to one-half of what is necessary for the garrison of the Gaditanian Island, have ob tained advantages. They attacked the Trocadero on the 30th of August, and notwithstanding that it was defended by the brave Graces and a gallant garrison, which kept its ground in the se. cond line for four hours and a half, they succeeded in possess. ing themselves of that point, because our soldiers, overcome by their fatigue, had nothing but their valour to oppose to the fresh troops of the enemy. Three weeks after, the castle of San Petri WM cannonaded by land and sea, and, without its being known what may have caused its surrender, it was, after an attack of three hours, entered by the enemy. Not many more days had passed over, when symptoms of sedition appeared in several companies of the regiment of San Alarcial, one of the corps which had shown the greatest resolution in defence of the Constitutional system. —This circumstance gave great uneasiness to the General-in- Chief and the Government. _ _ A stop was soon put to the evil by the punishment of the most guilty ; but this event powerfully augmented the anxieties. of the Government, and its situation became daily more equivo cal, and was rendered extremely critical by the want of re sources, occasioned by the protest of the bills drawn on funds in London, in the hands of Senor Machado, who had declared them to be at the disposal ofhis Majesty's Government:. The town of Cadiz sustained a severe bombardment on the 23d of September, and although that attack produced no other result than the ruin of some, and in no respect dismayed the garrison or the inhabitants, the Government conceived lluil the case was arrived, in which it would be improper longer to ex pose to the evils of war, without any utility far the cause of in. dependence and national liberty, the meritorious population of Cadiz, who have so many claims on the gratitude of Spaniards, and even on the respect of their enemies. This combination of misfortunes induced the Government to propose the departure of the King, and in execution of this purpose, his Majesty's resolution was communicated to the Duke of Migouleme; but us that General insisted on other conditions, which appeared to be founded on arrogance, the Liberals concurred in the general determination of expecting from the King's concessions which they would not submit to receive from a foreign force. Re the result what it may, we have been consistent In our principles, and we shall show that we have yielded, knowing that our expectations are founded on the information which the King possesses of the wishes of the majority of the judicious part of' the nation. In fact, his Majesty's manifesto, which we insert, is an im portant document, which holds out to us a flattering prospect. His Majesty promises to the Spaniards, that they shall not again be go% erned by the system they have so much detested, but that their personal security, their property, and their civil liberties, shall be respected. The oblivion of the past is a measure necessary for that confidence which is indispensable to the reconciliation of all parties. The recognition of the debts which have been contracted gives sanction to the principle that he was in perfect liberty at the time when his 'enemies declared the contrary. In fine, the promise which is made of the preservation of the rank of so many meritorious ,men, whose talents and virtues may yet prove of the greatest utility to their country, and the protection which is o ff ered to the brave militia of Madrid, Se ville, and other places, exhibit the Father who loves his sub. jects, and who appreciates the sacrifice of their comforts which they made in abandoning their homes and their families, when the situation of their country required it. These considerations afford ground for flattering hopes, and the free and spontaneous manner in which the Royal promise has been given, is calculated to induce us to trust that his Ma jesty, instructed by experience, now knows bow to render his subjects happy, and is resolved to pursue that object in order to obtain a distinguished place among the Monarchs who have securedto themselves the esteem and gratitude of the people whom Providence intrusted to theitcsre. clTT,Twclveo'Clock.—•Consols opened iltB3ll, at which price they are steady, with scarce any fluctuation, as most persons seem unwilling to speculate, fearing the result of the King of SPAIN'S tyrannical conduct, which they imagine may at some future period involve England in hostilities. The Expresses from Paris have brought the French Rentes at 00f. 55e. and Spanish Bonds at 261, the leaving off price on Monday afternoon. The change in the French Ministry has also had some effect on the minds of the public, and it is imagined that France wilt not suffer the King of SPAIN to pursue his present career. FOREIGN MARKET.—On the arrival of the Expresses this morning from Paris Spanish Bonds greatly fluctuated—opened at 26f, 26, 27, 2.1, 2414, 251. We copy the following letter, addressed to JAB. Ewnsio, Esq., Chairman of the West India Association, from Mr. ComitittouN, from the Glasgow courier, received yesterday : " London, St. James's place, Oct. 15. " 31y IItAR Sin—l have just received an assurance from Lord BATH curt., that arrangements have already been made for immediately sending out reinforcements of troops to the West Indies." LEATH OF Till EARL OF URIDGEWATER.—•:WO regret to announce the death of this greatly esteemed Noble man, who expired yesterday morning at six o'clock, at his seat, Ashridge, lierts, in the 71st year of his age. Ills Lordship MIS also Viscount BRACKLItY and Baron ELLESMERE. He is succeeded In his titles by his brother FRANCIS HENRY, who is a Dignitary of the Church. There are few whose loss will . be snore severely felt than that of the deceased N oble Earl. He gave employment to every labourer in his neighbourhood who was disposed to work; and thus dispensed charity with an unsparing hand, in the best of all moods of administering it, by promoting industry. The effect of his benevolence was to make all around him contented and happy.—The Lite Earl was. a General in the Army, and Colonel of the 14th Regiment of Dragoons. . . 'rho Right Hon. GrORGE CANNING is at pre sent on a visit to his Noble Friend the Earl of Morley, at his delightful seat, Saltram. The Worshipful the Mayor, N. Lockyer, gs q " has called meeting of the Freemen of Ply mouth, to be holden this day at the Guildhall, to determine on the propriety of presenting the freedom of the burgh, by patent, to Mr. Canning, for the eminent services,, he has rendered his Country. That the Free Men will be unanimous in following up the wishes of the Chief Magistrate, there can be no doubt. —This mark of attention to the Right Hon. Secretary will, we are persuaded, he gratifying to the Noble Earl of Morley, whose exertions to add to the prosperity of the town deserves the marked Attention and gratitude of its inhabitants.—( Devon- Aire Freeholder.) COURT or esterday the LORD MAYOR held a Court of Aldermen at Guildhall,' at which 17,9001. of the Orphan's d e b t was ordered to be paid off, and the Chamberlain was directed to give the several parties inter- wed therein notice thereof.—Richard Martin, Esq., .M.P., at tended the Court, and was heard in reepect of the regulation of Smithfield Market,: and the Court referred it to a Committee, to take Mr. Martin's statement Into consideration, and report their opinion thereon.—The Commissioners of the Court of Re quests for the month of November next were appointed. The hearing of Mr. COBBETTiI case yesterday before the Magistrates was resumed, and,.after a very long discussion, decided in favour of that gentleman. The lessees were convicted in 18 penalties, of only forty shillings each, the parties undertaking not to appeal. We are sorry to learn that Captain PARRY, almost immediately after his return from his arduous expedition, was seized with a violent fever. • THE THEATRES. Dnutt - Y-Lina.---The only variation in the per formance of The Road to Ruin last night was the substitution of Mrs. llttuncs for Miss S. BOOTH in part of Sophia, the latter having to fulfil a short provincial engagement. MONDRY, as usual, made a strong impression in 01d Dornton. We ob serve that some unkind comments have been made and repeated upon HARLEY'S Goldfinch. We well remember the excellence of LEWIS, the original re presentative of this character, and do not scruple to say that HARLEY is the best of his succes sors that we have seen. It is ditlicultto conceive what the fastidious critic can require that HAR. 'LEY does not supply. lie is all bustle and animation, and seems evidently to have studied the manners of the dashing heroes of the turf, and if he is liable to any objection, it is applicable rather to the excess of his vivacity than to any falling off. This just tribute is due to an excellent comic actor, and one who, by all report, is an exemplary character in pri vate life. The farce,_ for which we did not stay, G was The Turnpike ate. One Morning Paper says, that Mr. llonti, who was announced for the part of Ilenr,y Dltint, was prevented from appearing by indisposition, and that Mr. PENLEY apologised for the substitution of Mr. MEr.aosr. Another diurnal critic says, that " Mr. Hoar( made his first appearance f or the season in the same farce, and was very favourably received :" v " Who shall decide, when Doctors disagree?' COTINT GARDEN.—Whatem may be said on the dramatic merits of the musical piece entitled Clara, it operates so strongly, and is so well calculated to excite amiable affections, more par ticularly, as it is very well supported by the Per formers that its " salutary sorrow" is likely to be more usefully imprussive on a mixed audience than " The broadest mirth unfeeling Folly wears," and the acting of Miss M. Tula:, to say nothing of her beautiful singing, with the powerful effect of FAWCETT'. parental agonies, should exempt the piece from critical severity, independently of the respectable efforts of the other Performers. The piece was last night much applauded. The farce of Fortune's Frolic, reduced to a single act, gave Mr. RAYenta a new opportunity of confirming the approbation of the public on his performance of rustic characters, by his ludicrous representa tion of Robin Roughhead. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin—A. paragraph, " from a Correspondent," having appeared in the Morning Herald , of last week, stating 44 that Madame CA'rAt.INI has con cluded an engagement at the Bath Theatre, to give Italian performances, &c." I beg to request the favour of your contradicting the same, as being the entire invention of the writer, mis chievously calculated to mislead the Public ex pactation. I remain, Sir, your obedient Servant, Theatre Royal, Bath, Oct. 19,1823. J. D. LODER. What is there so very remarkable in Mr. KEAN'S playing the Blindman in Pizarro, and singing a comic song, or even playing Harlequin and dancing a hornpipe ? The writer of This is old enough to remember Mr. QUICK perforthing Richard the Third, and Jack BANNISTER and hc.x Ltrrow playing Hamlet But what is even this when compared with time endless versatility of talent exhibited by CAR RICK, who was equally great in personating the tragic and the comic muse in all their variety ? We have seen a series of play-bills, in which Mrs. Stnnows's name ap pears as the heroine in all the comic operas dur lug the time she acted under the management of her father, Mr. ROGIR lisunrac, previous to her appearance in London. This splendid woman performed Catherine, in SIIAKSPIARZ'S Catherine and Particle, within a few years of her retirement. FLoons ix Prznmorer.---Turin, Oct. 9.—We hear from Vercelli that the Sesia, being swelled by heavy rains, overflowed its banks on 'the ?6th and S7th of September, and did great damage thereto for the space of two miles below the bridge which crosses the high road from Turin r to Milan. The beautiful antique church del Ca sail, called the Old Capuchins, wasdestroyed by the fury of the waters, and a large garden, formerly belltiging to the Inquisition, was overflowed. The Magistrates seeing the church in imminent dan ger of falling, caused the fine marbles of the high altar, which well merited to be preserved, to be carefully removed. The waters of the Sesia rose to such a height, that lit some places they approached within a few inches to the canal of Prarolo; the greatest exertions were neces sary to prevent this misfortune, which would have ruined the fertile territories of Prarolo and Pezzana, and ruined the high road from Vercelli to Alexandria and Genoa—(l 3 iedmonteze Gazette, Oct. 9.) OLD BATLIIT (Toss DA - o.—Thvse Sessions commenced this morning at the Justice Hall in the Old Bailey, before Mr. Justice PARR, ME. Baron GARROW, the Loan MAYOR, Recoante, &c.

This annual meeting was held on Tuesday anti Wednesday last; but in consequence of sickness an deaths in the families of several country Gentlemen, who are members, preventing them and their connections attending, occasioned a very thin assemblage of sportsmen in the field. The ball was, however, on Wednesday night, numerously attended, and exhibited a very gay appearance; and the enlivening dance was kept up with spirit until a late hour. SPORTING ENTRAOIU?INAJCV!_ On Monday last a hare was discovered by Mr. Thomas, of the Ntlson Inn, near Southampton, on the mud near low water mark. It was likewise observed by several Gentlemen in ail same position for three hours. Mr. J. Hostler, having first provided himself with a pair of mud-pattens proceeded to the spot with a Newfoundland dog,when both hare i and dog imme diately plunged into the water, and several times totally dis appeared from the astonished gaze of the spectators. At length, after a chase of about 20 minutes, during which the poor animal made DO less than thirty turns to escape the vigilance of his pursuers, the hats was taken, and killed under the walls of the Spa Gardens. It appears by the Probate of the late Mr. HICAUDO'S PA which was registered in the Prerogative Court in Doctors Commons, on the 11th inst., that the amount of personal property administered to, within the province of Canterbury, was sworn under five hundred thousand pounds. The Stamp duty on this sum is six thousands pounds, in. dependently of the per tentage on legacies, which being almost entirely to near relativ e s is bat small. The will is dated the 4th of April, 1820. The testator has left to his widow a legacy of four thousand pounds, arm) four thousand pnuntls per annum for life (to be taken in lieu of dower.) The house in Upper Brook-street is amongst the property direct ed to be sold, hut the furniture, with little exception, together with carriages, horses, plate, library, wine, &c. are also given to Mrs. Ricardo. The unmarried daughters have 20,01001. each, and the married ones 6,0001. ; there is also, we believe, an ad ditional five thousand pounds to the &tighten by a codicil— The estate of Bromesberrow, the White-leafed Oak estate, with the furniture and effects, and others in the counties of Worces ter and Gloucester, are devised to the testator's son, Osman ; and a clause relative to this devise states, that whereas one Donovan has left by will directions to dispute the tesuttor's title to the estate of Bromesberrow, the validity of which, he, how ever, is well assured of; but to indemnify the legatee for such losses or expenses as may occur in defending any suit at law, he devises fifty thousand pounds to be set apart for that purpose. Gascomblatk, with all the furniture anti effects, and other estates in the county of Gloucester, and the manor of ItTinsop court, in Herefordshire, are left to his son David; and Had low-place and Berrow, in Kent to his son Mortimer,—these' three sons are also the residuary legatees. A silver vase, pre sented to the testator by the Members of the Stock Exchang e , is given to Osman. The said Osman Ricardo, anti the de ceased's brother, Francis Ricardo, are two of the exec u t ors , and have joined in probate; but power is reserved over to Mrs. Ricardo, who is also appointed to the same trust. PERSILVERANCR REWARDED.—A Gentleman in Hertfordshire, who had been for several years an unsuccessful Adventurer in the Lottery, pur chased a Quarter at 'but's, previous to the com mencement of the present Lottery, No. 18981, which was drawn a 101.

Determined to follow up his luck, he again exchanged his Prize for a Quarter,' No. 18564, which, on the third day of Drawing, (Thursday last) came up a Prize of 20,0 . 001. ; the money for which he received the following dab and invested in new 4 per cents.

The fallowing letter from an eye-witness Ott Englkhotio) to Isis friend in London, gives n'to« lorably clear idea of Lord Count Ames rn.a.. sures : " Mantranast, Ave. 29.—Since' my lest of Ott 2,BdlJune, the place has beet, a scene of confusion which it would be' use less to endeavour to describe. A new occurrence, however, has now presented itself, which has produced a change of scene, though perhaps eventually it may only serve to plunge it into add;tional difficulties. " On the 26th arrived ofl'this port a 74 gun ship, under Eng -1141) colours, which turned out to be the Brazilian man of war, Don Pedro the First, eommanded by Admiral Lord Cochrane. She presently anchored in front of both the fortis brought her broadside to bear upon them, and then, for t'te first time, hoisted t a Imperial Prazilian flag. The forts could chi nothing against his Lordship, for the cannon formerly mounted on them towarda the sea hail been almost all removed to theland sideof the town, to protect us from an entenyin that direction. There remained, in deed, in the two forts, about six or eight guns mounted on the hat. tonics ; but as it;was manifest that these could not sufficiently pritect the town, our authorities resolved, wisely, I think, to surrender at once. Ilk Lordship consequently took possession of the place without firing a shut. A revohainn was imin e di. ately effected in our political situation. Maranham joined the cause of independence. All the European Portuguese here were disarmed, and every one of them high or low, that held any office, was at once turned out, and his situation filled by a native Brazilian. " Lord Coen ANZ at present acts as sole Governor of the place, and exercises a pretty' comprehensive patronage; for he nominates any person he chooses to any office he thinks proper. rppo'nling them all, of cour se , in t h e name o f hi s I mpe rial Ma- J asty, Don Pnnuo. Several Proclamations have already been hared from on hoard the Admiral's ship, and signed Coen- KANE.' His hardship has not only in ide prize of all the Por. tuguese ships in h arbour, but ho insists on having two-thirds of the property in the town belonging to Portupese in Europe. This seems to be pretty sharp practice, but I presume his Lord ship will find some convenient chapter in the Law of t.) unction his doings; he has, of course, taken all the money in the Treasury, and, in fact, I think he means to drain us of all the money in the town. No vesselshave been alloWed to sail since his arrival, nor can any business he done ; ha is it the present moment busy in overhauling the Custom Haase re cords in order to d's 'over Portuguese property. " A steam engine lately armed out here from 'England to work a double forte pump; it is to be put up at Itaplearu. The rice mills in this neighbourhood are all stopped front want of a supply of rice. There is much difficulty to get in fonds of any sort; and, as I said before, I fear it will IN; a long titnit before this neighbourhood will be restared to a state of peace and tranquillity.'!
