COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. Mr. Macready made his debut on Saturday night in his newly assumed character of manager, and the recep tion he met with was of that cordial and hearty descrip turn which of itself is a cheering- presage of success. It seldom happens that a manager in the commencement nl his miner carries with him so many good wishes for his success as Mr. Macready does on the present occasion. It has for a hog period been felt that the drama has been declining ; rxertioos bard from time to time been made to revive it, but revenes save continually occurred which not only rendered those exertions abortive, but left the cause which they were meant t, succour in a still made hopeless state of prostration than bef9rp they were made. Even at the two great patent theatres 01;.' works of our old dramatists were in a great measure d:iven from the stage to place to "spectacke shows, pautoanmes, iknd other curiosities of foreign growth. Managers were tai:nted with their neglect of. the good English tragedies and e ;,imedio ; but, in answer, they alleged a change of the publi4 taste ; and they affirmed that it had been proved by late experience that the works of our English dramatists would no longer draw an English audience. From these circumstances it was that Mr. Macready assumed the management of Covent-Garden, with the avowed determini tiett of fairly trying the experiment how far the public soA i,, support him in " his strenuous endeavours to ad. vaned the drama as R branch of national literature and art." ki.4 advent is hailed with joy, not only by the public but by the I.."Qiession, who concur lo considering Mr. Mac ready as a most At person to hold the responsible position : w hi c h he n ow oeeur ;:es, His high character in printe life, and his acknowledged position as the first tragedian upon the stage, place him beyon4 the influence of those paltry jealousies which ere but too arLt 19 occur when the manager is also an actor, and which, :!" IrPth , have been often the rock upon which former tiOnirse m,-nts were shipwrecked. It is in these circumstances that Mr. Macready has undertaken the management an d we ,:re sure that the public will join us in good wishes for the Success of his experiment. The house on Saturday was cro.'dcd to the ceiling, and, as we have al ready said, Mr. Alac7eady's reception was ninst enthu siastic. On the rising or the curtain he came forward and delivered an address, which was written for the occasion (it is said by Mr. Sergeant 'Talfourd), and which was both appropriate and elegant. The author, it appears, forbids its publication, which is rather an absurd piece of modesty, considering that it has been recited before three thousand persons. After the address the whole company sang the national anthem, which was received with immense applause by the audience. The play of The Winter's Tale followed, Mr. Macready having, with very great propriety, opened with Shakspcare. Macready was Leontes, and went through his part with great ability. Mis; H. Faucit appeared as the ilermione, and her acting excited univei sal approbation. The statue scene was peculiarly well managed, and we have never seen it produced with such striking effect. Nothing could exceed the beauty of Miss Faucit's acting throughout it. The principal novelty in the cast of the piece was the appearance, for the first time, of a Mr. An derson, who performed the part of Florizel. There is so little to be done in the part assigned to him, that it is im possible to judge of Mr. Anderson's capabilities from his performance on this occasion. The few words which he bad to say were delivered with great propriety. His voice is very pleasing, and his appearance altogether favourable ; but beyond this we can say nothing till we have had op.. portunities of making his further acquaintance. At the end of the piece Mr. Macready was called for and warmly greeted. We have already given a description of the deco rations of the house. It is only necessary to add, that when it is lighted up it looks brilliant and handsome. Lord Viscount Curzon, eldest son of Earl Howe, has this year joined the Leicestershire Yeomanry Cavalry, as a private soldier in his father's troop, and as such has performed his duty in the ranks. The regiment last week went through their annual five days' training and exercise, on which occasion they were inspected by Colonel Wild man, the Field Officer of the District. The Queen has been graciously pleased to appoint Messrs. J. and J. Holmes, of Regent-street, Shawl Manufac turers to her Majesty. Drury-lane Theatre opens on Saturday, and more than 100 workmen are now busy in the decoration and em bellishment of the interior. Madlle. Celeste appears in a new piece by Planche, and a treaty is nearly concluded with a sister of the lamented Madame Malibran. Her Majesty, and some of the most distinguished leaders of haul ton, have taken private boxes for the whole season. A new ballet, embodying more than 150 dancers, will be forthwith produced. Mr. Kean will make his first appear ance in Ila»zlet. We may mention, as a most interesting circumstance, that upon the, o ccasion of the first visit of the Marquis of Tavistock to the Queen, at Windsor Castle, her Majesty was pleased to point out to him the bust of the Duke of Bedford, which she had just caused to be restored to the place from which it had been removed by the command of her Royal predecessor, William the Fourth.—Observer.

Letters from Odessa in the German Papers state that the Emperor of Russia will visit Odessa after the reviews of Wosnesensk, to witness some naval evolutions. These letters express their belief that the Emperor will neither visit the Caucasian Provinces, nor Warsaw, this year. The Courrier Beige has a letter signed " A True Catholic," relating various instances of the persecution car ried on by the Priests against the agents of the Bible So ciety, whom they describe as wicked men, false prophets, commissioned by Satan to distribute books that are the pro duce of hell (i. e., the Holy Gospels). In some instances their lives were saved by the interference of the police. The charge for admission to the theatres in Shak speare's time (about 1603) was—boxes, l s.; pit, fid.; gallery, Id. It is a constant remark of the Chinese authors, that the more the penal laws were increased in that empire, the nearer they drew towards a revolution. It would be easy to prove that in all, or almost all the Governments of Eu rope, penalties have increased or diminished, in proportion as those governments favoured or discouraged liberty.— Baron Montesquieu.

Baker, Esq., a magistrate, at the village of Chalk, near Gravesend, were discovered to be on fire. The London engines were promptly in attendance, but, from the scarcity of water (which could only be obtained from ponds at a considerable distance), were not of much assistance. The flames spread with fear ful rapidiOr, stack after stack became ignited, and a barn, containing many thousand quarters of wheat (this year's crop), was totally destroyed. ETIIEL CII:TRCHILL.—In this new story of the reign of George H., Miss Landon has evidently bestowed great care on all the literary characters she has introduced. Gay, Swift, Congrevc, are highly finished portraits, but Pope appears the one which has been drawn most con amore. Only the poetical mind could so far have entered into the feelings of the poet. One very prominent scene is laid at his villa at Twickenham, and in that Lady Mary Wortley Montague is introduced, and the quarrel which arose between her and her once impassioned admirer is traced with a fine sympathy on the one hand, and a quick perception of fi,!lies and weaknesses on the other. Lady Mary's character is severely drawn, but with a severity whose truth is amply ho.rne out by all contemporary records. ILFRACOMBE REFO.RM DINNER. —The North Devon Journal says,—This greztt festival came off on Wed nesday at the Public Rooms. Barnstaple presented a most animated appearance ; banners were flying from seve ral windows, and a large proportion of the houses were de corated wilt flowers and evergreens ; indeed everything seemed to assume the air of a high holiday. From an early hour of the morning, horsemen began to pour in from the surrounding district, and at twelve o clock a large body of Reformers left Ilfracombe and proceeded as far as Two Potts Gate, to meet their friends from Barnstaple, Braun ton, Eastdown,. ;on their return they formed them selves into a procession, headed by two bands of music, and comprising nearly 100 gentlemen on horseback, and a great number of pedestrians, walking three a-breast : sa ving paraded the streets, they repaired to a short dis tatVle from the town to await the arrival of our liberal county' representative, Lord Viscount Ebrington. His Lordship drove up soon afterwards, accompanied by his eldest son, an .1 followed by J. P. C. Chichester, Esq., M.P. , the Honourable N ewton Fellotves, J. D. Bassett, Esq., John Marshall. Esq. , J. S. Cla y , Esq., &e. 84e. A salute of cannon was fired from the harbour to greet their entrance, and the assembled multitude rent the air with their accla mations. The remains of a temple of Ops have just been dis covered at St. Jean des Vierges (Arriege).. Near them, beneath, a mass of rock chalk, which is In the act of being worked, waa found a gold medal f of Nero, in full tiun ; one side bears the effigy o that Emperor, the re verse, a ferria!R seated on ruins, with the single legend— " Roma." A grand mausoleum, which has just been erected I'EFtlie purpose of enshrining the mortal relics of Chateau- T - Tiiriand, is to be consecrated next week in the Isle of Grand BATA, Male, by the Bishop of liennes. Chateaubriand is tcvattend. ~; ~, WINJOSOR-SATURDAY. This afternoon her Majesty took her accustomed airing in the Park. . The following distinguished personages arrived in the course of the diy :—Princesq Augusta of Saxony, Baron Gcrsdorff, the Duchess of Gloucester, Lady C.

In addition to the above the following were of the Royal dinner party :—Duchess of Kent, Baroness Lchzen, Lady Mary Stopford, Lady Charlemont, Miss Murray, Miss Lister, Baron Stockmar, Hon. Colonel Cavendish, Lord Torrington, Hon. A. C. Murray, Lord Melbourne, Lord Palmerston, Mr. and Mrs Brand. The Turkish Ambassador and suite, Lord and Lady Albemarle, and Lord Alfred Paget took their departure, S:.;NDAY.—This morning the Queen attended divine ser vice at St. George's Chapel. The lessons were read by the Rev. H. Butterfield ; the chant to the Psalms was by Massey, of Percy Chapel, London ; and the service, Dr. Boyce, in A. The communion service was was read by Dr. Goodall ; and the sermon, from Phillippians, chap, iii., vet, 8, Was ... preached 14 the Rev. W. Cannins. The An them Was Handel's hallelujah chorus, from The Messiah. Mr. Elvy presided at the organ. There ware present with her Majesty in the Royal Closet Lady Stopford, Lady Charlemont, Miss Murray, Miss Lister, Lord Torrington, Lord Palmerston, and the Hon. Col. Cavendish. This afternoon the Queen accompanied by the Duchess of Kent, and attended by Lords Palmerston, Melbourne, and Torrington, Lady Charlemont, Miss Lister, Miss Murray, Hon. Colonel Cavendish and suite, honoured the visitors on the Terrace with her presence. Both military bands were in attendance, and her Majesty and Royal party walked amongst the company nearly half an hour. The Duchess of Gloucester rode out this afternoon in an open carriage with Princess Augusta of Saxony. There is now a vacancy for a counter tenor in the choir of St. George's Chapel, which is to be filled up in the early part of November. Princess Augusta of Saxony, attended by her suite, ar rived at the Castle yesterday, on a visit to the Queen. Her Royal Highness is about 58 years of age, and is celebrated for her literary acquirements. It is the intention of the Princess to make a tour of England, and to visit all the principal manufactories in the kingdom. Her Royal High ness does not speak our language, but is perfectly well ac quainted with French, which she speaks fluently. This Princess is the step-daughter of the late King of Saxony, and first cousin to the present. Napoleon sued for the hand of her Royal Highness, but ineffectually, previous to his marriage with Maria Louisa of Austria. Queen Adelaide paid a visit to the Queen yesterday, at the Castle, after going the through the painful trial of re turning to St. George's Chapel, to visit the tomb of his late lamented Majesty. Previous to leaving Windsor for Bushy the Dowager Queen passed an hour with the Princess Augusta, at Frogmore Lodge. The Court will leave Windsor on Wednesday next, for Brighton. The Queen will remain at the Pavillion till the 7th of November, and then preceed to Buckingham Palace, where her Majesty will stay till the 27th of the same month, and then return to the Castlo for the re mainder of the winter.

The preparations now in progress are of a most exten sive description, and entirely engross the attention of the visitors and inhabitants, each of whom appears to be studying how he may best outvie his neighbours in dis playing loyalty and affection to our Youthful Queen. All th e at art can devise by way of testifying how fully the inhabitants appreciate the honour of this visit will be at tempted, and it is expected that a scene of unprecedented brilliancy will be witnessed in Brighton on Wednesday next. We well remember the exhilarating scene exhibited on the arrival of William the Fourth and his Royal con sort, but, judging from the preparations now going on, this will far exceed it in point of brilliancy. 'Fhe immense am phitheatre, which has made its appearance with almost magic celerity, completely shuts from' view the northern lodge of the palace grounds. It has been erected in the most substantial manner, and will accommodate about 3,000 persons. It has two galleries ; the upper one has three rows of seats, and the lower one is a standing gallery ; and the whole is covered in. It is approached through a triumphal arch, through which her Majesty will pass into the arena, when thousands of eyes will in an instant be turned upon England's Queen, and thousands of voices will be raised with one accord to give her Majesty a joyous welcome. We cannot convey to our readers a description of this building so clearly as to give an idea of the probable effect that will be produced the mo ment her Majesty passes through the arch into the amphi theatre ; but we can picture to ourselves a most interesting scene when the whole of the vast assemblage of rank, beauty, and fashion will rise simultaneously to welcome the Queen to this her marine resort. The avenues will be well guarded by the local authorities, and every precaution will be ob served to prevent accident, and every exertion made to open a free pclssage for the Royal cortege. About 100 men have been employed during the week on this noble struc ture, and the wood work is nearly completed. The deco rations will be commenced to-morrow. In order to enhance the beauty of the scene, the Committee have issued notices expressive of their desire that the front scats may be occu pied by young ladies, from the ages of 14 to 18, in white dresses. Seats have been taken very fast. On the whole line of road, from the Palace gates to the northern extre mity of the town, along which her Majesty will pass, tem porary seats have been constructed wherever a small plot of ground was vacant, and many of the places are already taken at extravagant prices for the day, Balconies in some of the unfurnished houses have let at from five to ten guineas ; and placard:, with " seats to view the procession," are as common as blackberries. At the entrance of the to am, on the London road, a rustic arch is being constructed, The illuminations will be very general, and devices have already made their appearance on many of the houses. The Committee intend to dine the charity children in the Am phitheatre the next day, and it is hoped that her Majesty will condescend to honour the interesting scene with her presence. CO EMT CIRCULAR. The Princess Augusta of Saxony, attended by Baron Gersdorff, the Saxon Minister, left town on Saturday on a visit to her Majesty, at Windsor Castle.

OCTOBER 2, 1837. The Tory journalists cannot by any possible means be reconciled to a majority of Liberal Representatives from Ireland. It matters not who or what they are. Provided they are advocates for justice to their country, they not - only find no favour in the sight of these patriotic scribblers, but are denounced in the foulest language that the English tongue can supply. To look for anything like consistency from such writers, would be to display entire ignorance of their nature and habits. They are as changeable as the chameleon, adopting without the least difficulty, or rather with a sort of natural and instinctive alacrity, the political hue which best suits the passing moment. Who that remembers anything that appears in the columns of the Times, can have forgotten the taunts with which that journal used to assail the Libe ral Members whom Ireland sent to the last Parliament, on account of their supposed deficien cies in point of station and wealth ? How often did this brazen mouthpiece of rabid Toryism ring the changes upon its well-worn vocabulary of Billingsgate, in order to depreciate the men whom it represented as too poor and dependent to have any will but that of Mr. O'CoNNELL ? Nothing, according to this vera cious oracle, could be so clear a proof that they owed their seats to O'CONNELL influence, as the fact that they were not of what is termed the aristocratic class, and it was predicted at the same time, that while that influence lasted there would be nothing in the shape of a Gentleman returned by the Liberal party in Ireland• It was utterly impossible that men of birth would stoop to be the mere puppets of the Great Agitator ! Now, it so happens, that there are among the Re form Members returned at the late elections some Noblemen, and many Gentlemen of the greatest wealth and most ancient families in the sister country. What does the Times, say to this ? Does it deny the fact? No. That even it has not the effrontery to do. According to its former doctrine on this point, the members to whom we allude cannot be under the spell of O'CoN NELL, while their being returned in the Liberal inte rest at all must, according to the same authority, be a proof that the influence of the champion of Ireland is either on the wane, or never was so great as the Tories, for their own ends, endeavoured to represent it. But let us see how clumsily the Billingsgate journal tries to back out of its position. They " make," says the Times " a laompous assumption of names, fortunes, respectabilities, &c., as if names were things, and pounds principles." This is the answer of the journal which was the first to infer the want of principle from the want of pounds, whose great desiderata for the Irish representation in the last Parliament were " names, fortunes, and respectabilities," and which cannot, even in an article devoted to a virtual if not ostensible recantation of its often-declared opinion on this sub ject, conceal the contempt which it feels for the people of Ireland, simply because of their poverty. The Irish it calls " a pennyless rabble," and the Catho lic Clergy a " depraved priesthood." To what degrada tion will this Print descend at last ? In another part of our paper will be seen a state ment of the privations to which the poor Polish patriots still remain exposed. It is impossible for any man to read the harrowing narrative of their sufferings, and of the noble fortitude with which they have borne up against pinching want, and continued calamity, with out ferlin'g an interest in the fate of the poor, yet noble minded men. They have been exiled from the country of their birth—reduced from stations of wealth and rank for the love of liberty--they sought an asylum here amongst us. Shall we suffer the strangers to starve on Albion's hospitable shores ? Are we willing ,to have it recorded that exiles sought in England an asylum, and found but a grave ? No—we are per suaded that the sympathies of our generous country men will avert this disgrace. They will not permit the patriots of Poland to die unheeded and unaided in this land of liberty, here in the heart of the richest country in the whole world. The whole of the Paris papers of Friday and Sa turday have been received. Their contents are more interesting than politically important. In the official columns of the Charte and Moniteur we find the fol lowing intelligence from Spain : TELEGRAPHIC DESPATCHES. " BAYONNE, SEPT. 27, HALF-PAST. ELEVEN.—The ac tine on the 19th was more important than at first believed. The Pretender is precipitately retreating. A corps of 6,000 men detached from his army has been met by Oran in the environs of Saudon, and dispersed by him. That General pursues that division to the south. His head-quarters were at Huete the day before yesterday. Espartero writes from Fuenta that he is about to continue to follow the bulk of the factious army, which i s retiring in confusion in the direction of Trillo. De serters are continually arriving, and the public spirit of the people appears to have reviv e d i n favour of the . Constitu tional cause. The elections commenced yesterday at Madrid, and are proceeding amidst the utmost tranquillity." " BORDEAUX, SEPT. 29, HALF-PAST SEVEN, P.M. ‘, On the night of the 20th the Pretender had left Bril tneya, moving upon Trillo. Espartero, who is follom ing him closely, was on the 21st at Fuentes, In the action on the Oth, besides a good number of killed and wounded, the enemy lost 230 prisoners, including 11 officers, and above 500 deserters ; Brigadier Miranda, leader of the Carlist payajry, 1Y 3 ,4 Cabrera, with 6,000 men, had separated froth the rreteader, and was precipitatel y Ing the direction of Cuenca, pursued by Oraa, who had taken 200 prisoners." " BAYONNE, SEPT. 26, HALF-FAST SIX, P.M. " Fresh mutinies, owing to want of pay, took place on the 23cl at Pamplona, in the 4th Light Infantry, as well as in the Tiradores, a part of whom have been disbanded. Notwithstanding this anarchy, there is no change in the state of the garrison, which is abandoned to itself'. " The Commandant of the Foreign Legion, much per plexed, and unable to leave the wrecks of his corps shut up is Pamplona, is about to establish himself at Ronces. valles, within reach of our frontier." " BAYONNE, SEPT. 29, NINE O'CLOCK. " THE FRENCH AMBASSADOR TO THE MINISTER FOR FORSIGN AFFAIRS. " MADRID. SEPT. 26.—0 n the 22d, Oraa overtook, near Cuenca, the Carlist corps which he had pursued. Hu beat it, and captured 900 prisoners. " On the 24th, General Carondelet, after a sanguinary engagement, compelled Zariaticiguy to evacuate Valladolid, and relieved the Castle, which was besieged since * " Interrupted by nightfall." Advices direct from Madrid of the 23d ult., confirm the first and second of these despatches. The Chris. tinos are beginning to bestir themselves, and in truth it is high time. The following are copies of the des patches from General ORAA to the Minister of War which constitute the burden of the latest arrivals from the Spanish capital Is TO HI9 EXCELLI/NCY THE MINUTED. Or WAR. HZAD QUARTERS, SAItTON, SErT. 20. " In obedience to the instructions contained in the royal Order which I received, I marched at day-break from Sa cedon, in the direction of Siguenza. On passing the bridge of Aunon I received a dispatch from Count Luchana, in which he conveyed to me the gratifying intelligence of the complete victory obtained over the rebels the preceding day, and informed me that the greater part of them had taken the direction of Pastrana. In consequence of this infor mation I changed my route, and advanced towards that place. When I had got beyond Alhondiga, my scouts in formed me that a considerable force of the enemy was ad vancing. I then detached the cavalry by the high road, and the infantry by the heights at either side. The enemy beaten the day before by the expeditionary troops of the army of the north, were totally ignorant of my proximity, and, seized with terror, and in a disordered state, they dis persed as soon as they perceived half a troop of my ca valry, and proceeded towards the Tagus, which river they crossed, by the fords and boats of Almonacid, Zurita, and Sarton. All the troops under my orders, continued in rapid pursuit of the enemy until night-fall, at which time we reached the river side, and we made 200 prisoners, be sides the multitude who joined our ranks, and rescued an officer and 10 privates of the royal horse guards, captured several horses, some baggage, fire-arms, &c. " Although the troops have made painful marches for 20 successive days, without any repose, they pursued the enemy with the greatest enthusiasm and valour. " I have been informed that the 'Pretender is not with these forces ; but as they Consist of 5,000 infantry and 500 cavalry, and are commanded by Cabrera, Forcadell, Sanz, Tallada, Castellar, and others, and apparently purpose to march upon Cuenca, it is my intention to follow up the pur suit, and avail myself of their disorganisation and dismay. " I shall apprise your Excellency of my movements fre quently, and with exactitude. Signed) .‘ MARCELINO ORAA." " Head-quarters, Huete, Sept. 21. " The news which I received yesterday, although no positive statement was made, that the Pretender and all the faction had crossed the Tagus, was such as to induce me to believe that this was the case, and in this belief I resolved to follow himTlnforming Count Luchana of my determina tion, in order that he might give me the necessary orders on this head. " Having, in consequence, followed the route taken by the faction, which should have all assembled at this place, an advanced guard of my cavalry came up with the enemy's rear guard, and took several prisoners. The cavalry con tinues to pursue the faction although the night has closed in. " I have ascertained here that the fugitives with Cab rera, Sanz, Zavala, Forcadell, Martinez, and Castellar, amount to about 6,000 men belonging to the factions of Na varre, Aragon, and Valencia; the greater part of the pri soners belong to the first mentioned chief. The rebels fly in the greatest disorder and dismay, scattered about in all directions, for which reason it is difficult to overtake them. I shall follow them up to-morrow, and in the mean time have given orders to all the commanders through whose dis tricts they may pass, to send out detachments, and use every effort to capture the many stragglers that must necessarily remain behind. " M. ORAA." " Head Quarters, Fuentes, Sept. 21. "At eleven o'clock this night I reached this place with all my troops, where they have been encamped, being un able to proceed further. The enemy on hearing of my ap proach abandoned Brihuega this very night, taking the direction of Trillo. At day-break I propose pursuing them. To-day the prisoners marched, to the number of 200, guarded by four companies to conduct them there. I have given the provincial authorities directions to put themselves in communication with the Government for the safe conveyance of these prisoners to the capital. The number who have passed over from the ranks of the enemy to those of the national troops exceeds 500 men. The details of the action of the 19th I have been unable, from incessant marching, to transmit ; but I can assure your Excellency that the results of that important day are of great consideration in every point of view." M. ORAA. The above includes the whole of the intelligence of any interest received this morning from Spain, either direct from Madrid or by way of Paris. The KING returned on Saturday from the reviews at Compiegne. They passed off in the most satisfac tory manner. Complaints of the harsh treatment of Count GON rALONIERI are repeated in all the Liberal Journals. The Constitutionnel indignantly denounces the conduct of the Police and the Government as equally arbitrary and tyrannical. The following are extracts from the Paris Papers : A letter from Odessa of the 14th September contains the following statements : " The arrival of the Emperor at the camp has been an nounced as an important event. The superior Turkish officers whose term of quarantine was expired, have set out in haste ; they as well as all the other persons will have all their expences paid. This expense is defrayed out of the Imperial Treasury, which is said to be deeply in debt, ex pecting, however, an increase of revenue. But the Court of Russia has this assemblage more at heart perhaps on account of its political result than of its military importance. Favours, orders of knighthood, presents, promises, caresses, will be lavished on all whose good will it is desirable to ac quire or retain ; the object in view is to gain partizans in every state—to inculcate the Russian policy upon all—in a word, to seduce, to gain those persons on whom the Em peror wishes to be able to depend. The legitimists of all nations who have been invited will also be of some use. It is something to support civil war in the want of anything better, and likewise to cherish hopes. " With a similar vie*, the Emperor would have it be lieved that he is not averse to an amnesty of the Poles ; he has ordered a report to be made on the subject. Be sides, it is known beforehand that pardon will really be granted only to the deserters, and that the neutrals will hardly obtain a commutation of punishment. As for the men who are really patriots, snares will be laid for them ; so much the worse for those who shall suffer themselves to lie deluded. " An English vessel, with a cargo taken on board at Constantinople, has been detained by the Russian cruisers, twenty leagues to the south of Zaturka, on the Asiatic coast. The vessel has been carried into Sebastopol, and we have just received the news that the crew has been thrown into prison."—Constitutionnel. We have received to•day a letter from Marseilles, dated the 26th, which unhappily confirms the intelligence that had already reached us, of the appearance of the cho lera at Toulon. A telegraphic dispatch from Toulon, which has this moment arrived, announces 27 deaths by cholera. From noon yesterday to noon to-day, a battalion of the 22d of the line, which had just arrived, had lost twelve men. There have been cases so rapid in their progress, that eight more were carried off in two hours.--Le Commerce. FRENCH FUNDS.-PARIS, SEvr. 29, F.ve per Cents., 10Sf. 25c. 30c.
