TH F SUN A F • SOLEN QUIS 'ACERB FALSUN AUDEAT LONDON, tVEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1823. W e have no further information from Paris, to throw additional light on the statements said to have been made by M. de VILLELE to the Chain. her of Deputies. In the mean time, we may almost venture to conclude, that, if the version of the French Minister's disclosures, which was given by the Journal du Commerce, had been materially in. accurate, the friends of M. de V“.t.cr.E would not have suffered the tnisrepresentation to reach this country, unaccompanied by corrective letters addressed to the English Papers whicla are in the interest of the War Party. One of these Anti. tritish Journals says, " Wp wait till some ac. count is published on the other side before we Pronounce a decisive opinion." Another asserts bol dly that " The Constilutionnel and the Jour -401 du Commerce have put into the mouth of M. de VXLLELE tinguilootericii w®-ire' . .coUvltlctd he never uttered !" Out when we look for the :;roundit on, which the, cppyicticm ,of this Writer . rests, we find them •to be-very unsatisfactory, for he only alleges that M. de itur.iit .4( could not have said this,"—und whY,L."

The public do not place any confidence in a future negociation be tween France and Spain, particulady when the King's Speech and our debates shall reach Madrid, which no doubt will have an important effect on the Spuish Nation.

Province continued to be firm ; the vessel from Rio was obliged to depart immediately on her arrival, and to carry back the Commissaries and the orders which were sent by her. On the 31st, the Expedition from _Lisbon, intended to reinforce the troops station. ed here, landed amidst the acclamations of the people ; the King and Constitution was in every one's mouth, and no one seemed to think of the Prince or his decrees. Nov. 142.---The last arrival; from Lisbon in form., that a second Expedition was to set out forthwith. The King, in his Royal letter, dated the 31st August, addressed to the Junta -of this Province, states,. that it being necessary to station in" the waters "of Bahia a 'squadron for the 'protection of the ' tranquil and pacific , residents, for the maintenance of the laws of the Cortes, and for the preservation of the union be tween Portueal and Brazils, he htis nominated Conitilander•irt,Chi e f of that squadron JUAN FQ,IX DE CAMPO; ililthOtiPielg him to attach to his command any Portuguese vessels of war which he.may meet in his voyage,'or may fiud at Bahia On his arrival, and enjoining Portuguese Citizens to aid and assist him in suppressing disobedience to the laws. THE KI NG. - -Brighton, Feb.lo.-0 r gracious MosAncn, we are rejoiced to state, continues daily to improve in health. The report at the Palace to-day was, as yesterday, every way gratifying to the Public. The report of the state of the Duke of YORK, yesterday, was—" His ROYAL. lIIGAINNS3 going on :cell towards recovery." The Royal Duke rode out in his .carriage on Monday and yesterday for a short time. Many months singe we stated that the French Government were making every exertion' to put their Navy into a complete state of equipment, and we now find, that they will have a powerful fleet ready for, sea early in the ensuing mouth. We believe, -notwithstanding all which has been • said to the contrary, thut His Majesty's Government have not been inattentive to this subject, but have taken every necessary precau tion in order to .be prepared for such an event. Dom, FEII. MATEs, .the King% Messenger, arrived here late last night, direct from Madrid, with dispatches. He was detained some time at Tolosa, in the Pyrenees, owing to an armed banditti being on the 'outskirts, that plundered every one that passed. However, on the Governor of St. Sebastian sending a body of 60 troops to guard the mail and dispatches, Mr. Mates was abont to proceed, when accounts reached Tolosa that the banditti was 'upwards of 200 strong, and that a small force would inevitably be cut to atoms. In consequence, a representa tion was made to the Governor of St. Sebastian for a reinforcement ; but fearing an attack on that place, only an escort of 96 men could be spared, with which the messenger and the mail set forward, and reached Bayonne fortunately in safety. To pass the Pyrenees now, without a very strong guard, is extremely dangerous. We understand that there is no truth in the report that it is NOT the intention of his Majesty's Government to bring in, • during the present Session, ' a Bill to re-unite the two Canadas."-- 7 We have received several important and valuable communications from both. of the Provinces Yet FAVOUR of the Measure, which we shall from time to time idsert, as occasions offer.

Esi to the Loudon Stige last night, with the other attractions of- Gay' Man'izering, drew as large an audience as the House could contain ' Her' ap pearance in the part of Lucy Bertram was hailed by so. enthusiastic, a welcome as evidently to .overcome .her• spirits ; she however. rallied, :and went : through the part with her usual success: It is observed, in a Morning Paper, thatshe-.is articulate in giving the words of her songs;. but, admitting the truth of this remark, it may fairly be applied. to most public singers. IY:e would, however, advise Miss STEPHENS, who is so excellent a singer, to. attend to this defect both in her singing and acting.--Mr. SitEttwiN, from the York Theatre, made a successful effort in the part of Dandle Dinnont. LISTON: was the Dominic Sampson. ft is needless to say that 'he supported it effectively, and perhaps if his hu mour were more chaste, it would not be equally diverting. BltAll AM, as usual, was a powerful prop to the piece. He introduced some additional songs, all of which were much ap 7 plauded.--Mrs. GiovEß was. the Meg Merrilies, and though from the plenitude of her form she was not well calculated to represent a time-worn, hard-faring, gypsey, yet her acting so completely embodied the part as to excite well deserved sympathy and applause. By the way, we were sorry to see Miss C U BITT an d Miss Fount:placed In the subordinate station of members of the gang of gypsies. They both possess .talents which should have secured them from such degradation, as they are. not " of the ordinary of Nature's sale-work." The Opera was received with all due attention and applause. • OLYMPI C.—This theatre was on Monday even ing honoured by the presence of his Royal High ness the Duke of GLOUCESTER : on his entering the house he was recognized by the audience, who greeted him with loud and continued huzzas.. —" God save the King" was called for, and given by the company. His Royal Ji ness appeared much amused with the enter tainments. His Royal Highness remained till the fall of the curtain, when he departed he wag accompanied by the same enthusiastic applause . that marked his entry. The Duke was conducted to his carriage by Mr. EoEirrox, the proprietor, and Mr. PARKER, the boxpeeper, to Whom he expressed himself much gratified by the evening's entertainment.—(lforni t i g Herald.) Lord IioTHAm is entitled to the - thanks of the public, for having given notice for A Call of the House, PREVIOUS to the discussion of The Popery Question. We understand that it is the intention of the Universities of Oxford and Camtnidge to present petitions against the measure, in which, we have eve r y reason to b el i eve, that they will be supported by the Protestant Community of ALL denominations. LOUD GwYnta.—This benevolent Nobleman has been conspicuous among those liberal laud. lords who have reduced their rents in these bard times. lie has not been contented with this act of benevolence, particularly towards his tenants in Lincolnshire, but has visited them in person, and treated them with the greatest attention and kindness. There are opulent characters in that neighbourhood who might be expected to imitate his Lordship's meritorious example, but who, OH application for similar indulgence, have received nothing but a haughty refusal ! The last letters from Calcutta contain f'thd of entertaining anecdotes of a public and private nature. We shall, whenever an opportunity presents itself, subinit them to our readers, without comment. They exhibit a correct view of " Things as they are" in that country, and cannot fail to be interesting to the public. On Monday evening Prince Lcorot,n and the Duchess of KENT honoured Covent-garden The atre with their presence. Last night their Royal Highnesses honoured the Italian Opera with their presence. The Prince dined with his Royal Sister. LAW APPOINTMENTS. --Mr. COUILTENAY,MiIs. ter in Chancery, and M.P. was -yesterday sworn in a Baron of the Exchequer, hi the room of Mr. Baron Noon, who has retired superannuated. Mr. Justice BAYLEY, we believe, wished to ob tain this appointment, but the Learned Judge's friends did not consider it quite a , suitable tran sition for a Judge of his merits and long services, however its duties might correspond with his de- , dining years. It is now said that, by other changes now in contemplation, an opporthnity will be afforded of placing Mr-Justice BAILEY at the head of the Court of Exchequer, In con sequence of Mr COURTENAY' S elevation, theLoao CHANCELLOR will be under the painful necessity of exercising his patronage in the ifornination of two Gentlemen of the Long Robe to the office of Master, in the .room of Mr. CaDRTENAY and Mr. SEKYL. Mr. WtsurtELn is already spoken of as one object of his Lordship's choice, but the other is not yet named.—(Moi nintChronicle.)

G.—flis Royal Highness the Prince of ORANGE gave yesterday one of the inost splendid fetes ever seen at rirussels • above 1000 person s were present; th e var i ety an d splendour of the costumes were equally striking. It was a happy idea to revive, as it were the Court of Francis I. and that of the Duke of Ferrara, so celebrated in the life of Tessa. Nothing could surpass the effect of the entrance of the Queen. the *mess of Orange, the Princess Marianne, and the two Princes, into the, splendid saloons of the Vauxhall; they were followed by a numerous and most splendid suite. Soon after a company of English appeared in the costume of the characters of IttOnliee, thq master-piece of Sir W. Scott. The ballet, which they executed, was universally admired. POETRY. EPIGRAM.

SUSPICION or Aluituta.---Yesterday as ti man was carting • away some dung from the Regent's 'ark, he discovered a box lying in the midst or the dirt, on opening it the body of a full grown child was secreted therein, which had apparently been placed there but a short time. The box with its contents was then carried to the Orange Tree Public House, where the body underwent a minute examination when it was discovered there were some severe , marks on the child's throat, apparently inflicted by the hand for the supposed purpose of strangulation. Information of the circumstance having been given to the Pa rochial Officers of the parish, and Coroner of the County, a Jury is summoned to sit upon the body this day. Mr. GOODMAN, butcher, of Yarmouth, having left Norwich on Saturday evening, was found, on the road between Acl e and Filby, in a stat e of insensibility. lle revived sufficiently to endea vour to express himself, and was understood to say that he was murdered. lle expired. on Sun., day evening. He was known to have money on him when he left Norwich, but there was none found in his possession. His horse was found in' the morning at the Filby Toll-gate. About six o'clock on Saturday morning a fel low was stopped by the watchman in Hosier lane, with a basket, enclosing a sack, containing the body of a young female, apparently very recently dead. The corpse was then taken to St. Sepulchre's work-house, and every inquiry has since been made at the neighbouring intrying grounds, but no satisfactotty Intelligence has been received as to the person of the deceased% The fellow's account was, that a man had given him a shilling to carry the basket to Newgate Market for him. r • :: .',:v; 1 ' • MK -\,;;, 1. .'- SO , , ‘ A • , . , 4o ) (4-4, , „'4O 0 - 1.1 ..)

On Tuesday , a b out two . o!el O Ck ;"a noW again began to fall and continued: throughout ,the evening. After midnight, h owever , an d as the morning 'approaChed, the fall increased and continued till late'last night, exceedingly close and heavy, but abated after midnight. FortUreetely, during the greater part of the day, the wind was very mode. rate, so that little drifting took place, but the .quantity of snow fallen exceeds what fell on Sunday and Monday last. As in the early part of the day he re an d p er h aps in all the up land part s , the drift wee considerable, so the roads in our neigh , bourhood after being nearly opened, are again chocked up More closely than ever, and travelling is almost altogether euspend ed. After the drifting ceesexl, the snow: fell to a depth exceed ing 12 inches. To the N.W. and W. there was scarcely anyeeow previous to yesterd a y. In Bute, there is none , an d to th e South of Ayr there was very little. We imagine, however, that the fail yesterday was very general, and, should a high -wind imme diately tollow, the d r if t w ill b e excessive and the derycr ru the sheep dist r i cts very great; ind ee d, they must be alreed'y :Liff7,7r ing, and the severity of the season is row keenly- felt by a:I tika labouring classes being deprived of employment.

Caret have for some days been employed in carrying away the heaps to throw them into the river : 1 Edinburgh and': London made remain due. Th e Edi nburgh night mail to this city has ceased' to be diepatched. The Commercial Traveller coach and another from Edinburgh came in this morning with six horses each, having been about twenty.four hours upon the road. The road to Edinburgh is in a dreadful state. The mails can only travel on horseback, and then have to make their way alternately on the fields and the road as these are open,— Four London mails remained due at Edinburgh yciaereeece morning, and no mail from Aberdeen had been received at Edinburgh since Saturday last. The road to Ayr is completely blocked up, and it is very uncertain if the mails from this to Greenock, dispatched on horseback, will bt able to get through. The London mails which arrived last night, left Carlisle on Thursday afternoon at four o'clock—got to lleattick Inn about midnight, by which time the snow anti drift Were so great that they durst not proceed till 9 o'clock yestertlay Morning, when, leaving the coach,, the ()mad proceeded with the mails on horse• back, and reached Glasgow at. the hour mentioned, having made his way with great difficulty. Though accompanied with good guides, they had to abandon the road repeatedly. The drift and fall of snow yesterday along that line of road was terrible and the snow an deep, that the inhabitants say they recollect no thing like it for the lait thirty years. The roads ure blocked up in the closest manner wed one barrier of snow every where presents itself from this-to London. , The drift and f a ll yester day, continued for 26 hour s without the smallest intermission. The guard says he never saw such wreaths on that road. A e the road south of Carlisle to London had been cut early in the week, as the e l l tiesdaY's mail was every Bement expected at Carlisle, when the coach l e f t on Thursday, and as homes *ere ready to • forward it the moment it arrived, the guard , expects that it would have reached Dottglasitill or Kirkinuithill laSt night, and that it may reach this by two or three e'clock.
