jest are really so absurd, that we are almost ashamed of treating them with'serious notice. The Government of Algiers (says a Dutch Paper) has returned to its despotic proceedingi. A ship laden with various hales of 'goods, and hound to Algiers, was ohligea, imconsequence of • a storm, to be at the expence of 10,000 francs, for repairs at Marseilles and Nice. On its arrival the captain would not unload until he was indem nified for the expenses, which he proved by proper documents. Those to whom the cargo was addressed complained to the Deb•, who or dered it to be delivered to, them, adding, that it was not the custom at Algiers to make any allow ance for averaze. MI the European agents pro tested against this decisiqn, which is contrary to the law of mations; bat the Dey persisted, and the 'captain was compelled to give up the cargo without receding any indemnity.

The Board of Trade has, it is understood, an swered the Memorial of the London Ship-owners ; but those at the out-ports have been generally apprised of its teldency or effect. Advises from Zante and Corfu, contained in a letter from Trieste of the 24th ult., mention that the Turkish fleet in that neighbourhood was in a state of great insubordivation, and that the plague prevailed on board many of the ships. That of the Greeks:n.kaintained a position' favourable for an attack, but their navel commander had deter mined to delay it, until disease and the mutinous spirit of the sailors had weakened the Turkish fleet in a still greater degree. The Glasgow Courier states a report that Mr. CANNING IS likely to visit ( ; laggow, and promises him, of course, u very favourable reception. It is, however, hardly probable, that much as the honourable gentleman may be desirous of visiting place of such commercial importance, that his official duties ill atlord•ltim sufficient leisure for that purpose.

To defray the expellee of this measure, a subscription has Already been coMmeoced. .. A Letter from Berlin, dated the 16th of August; 'says, "'The Navigation on , the Rhine, and the traffic it; Colonial. Wares, is very active.

At Lyndhurst, on the sth iost., the annual amusements were of an interesting character ; the horse.racing afforded much :).e sport. .51r. Ilumby, 'of Four Posts, met with a severe lase, as an excellent horse of his, while running it Nil speed, dropped down suddenly and expired. The quantity, of red mullet, caught in South looptnn River, this :wawa, is greater than has ever been known is the uaemery of the oldest fishermen. They are now offered in the market at ,Nl. each.

The number of Students at the University of Moscow at paseat, is 6t45. They celebrated the Annbiersary of its foundation with great pomp and ceremony on the 15th of July. The Director of the Police in Konigsberg has, through the medium of the newspapersoifficially recommended to the Inhabitants the abstaining from the use of flounders ( Pleuroueetes Flews) during the present hot weather.—(Berlin Payer.) It appears certain (says a letter from Am sterdam), that as soon as the !sc..: Canal in North Holland is aompleted, that the Yssel will be separated f r om the Zu y der Zee by means of a dam and sluice. The harbour of Amster dam, which every year costs a great deal of money to cleanse, will then no longer fill up, and the adjacent country will be secured against inundations. It affords us much pleasure to learn that Miss CuusteE's popoular novel of Isobel St. Albe is now dramatizing by an able pen, and is likely to be brought forward very shortly on the Dublin Stage. Many of the scenes are so essentially dramatic and picturesque, as ,to require little :alteration in order to 'adapt them for theatrical ;representation.. To have. selected such an inte resting production,as the ground-work of a Melo drama, evinces good taste, and we can only say, that we sincerely wish it that success, which the valuable qualities of the subject ought to ensure.

Wixbsou, SErr. 3.—Our Gracious Sovereign has not yet taken possession of the apartments prepared fur his reception in the Castle, nor is there yet any certainty as to the day upon, which that happy event will take place. All is anxiety and expectation here, and has been for the last week, owing to the fluctuating reports which every day brings upon the subject. His Majesty, it is understood, has yielded a reluctant ansen t to the re presentations of his physicians, nos to leave the Cottage during the present fine weather, being unwilling to prolong the suspense of the town and neighbourhood of Windsor. The preparations to celebrate this auspicious return to the "olden time," in this place, are upon a scale of unusual magnitude and liberality. A subscription, it is said, of nearly five hundred potmds, has been made to unite the labouring and poor population of the parish of Windsor in the festivities of the day ; and all hearts being animated with but one feeling, the greatest activity exists in making the arrangements. ktable is to be laid in the open air, extending for one mile under the trees in the Long Walk, which is to accommodate two thousand five hundred persons. The Bachelors of Windsor have contributed 50/., which has been laid out in fire-works, to be displayed ' , from Bachelor's-acre, where also an ox will be roasted. One indi vidual has engaged, to give the whole party in the Long Walk two glasses of wine each after dinner. The illuminations, also, in the evening, are expeeted to be unusually brilliant, and the fete, it is supposed, will be superior to any thing ever done at this place. A party of 300 citizens is to dine in the Town Hall, and four Committees have been appointed to make all the ar rangements : one ut.dertakes the supply of provisions, another superintends the fire-works, a third the tables sad canopy in the Long Walk, whilst a fourth collects the names and aunt , bers to be accommodated.

SY.PT. 7.—Faehionable arrivals here centinue to multiply. The display of fashion at Lucombe's Library last night was the gayest of the season. Miss Ware sank; several airs in charming style; her demeanour is unassuming, she warbles with taste, and, without attempting too much, never fails to excite interest with her auditors. Comic recitations are sometimes given here by the Librarian, and with the happiest effect; they have been frequently repeated, when not pre viously announced, at the espcial request of the !..cantes pre sent.—Lord Alvanley, who left us a few days ago for France,, was expected to return last night. The Swift steam-yacht, however, arrived, ae from Dieppe, without hint, but bringing the information that his Lordship proposed re-crossing the Channel in her on Monday. - • • • • MARGATE, SEPT. 7.—This town for company, bustle, and gaiety, may now be said to boast its meridian. , The settled state of the .weather has done wonders in producing this de sirable event. The steamers s,dl continue to wheel down and credit us (for here I'must use a technical mercantile phrase) with hundreds every day : the debit side, or those who leave us, are by no means in proportion, so that 'the daily balance still remains in favour of Margate. WORTHING, SEP'r. 7.—The apparent termination of the reign of the Watery Saint, has had, a corresponding effect upon this place, and the last week ,has been marked by a Very con siderahle influx of company, which has been daily (indeed hourly) on the increase, and the town is now a scene sit eni mated gaiety. Parties unutterable are constantly ,on the wing for the different places of attractive character in the vicinity and the harveit fielde, which now present a busy scene, are , also visited in all dint crone by grouper of elegant and fashion able visitants. HaanowerarE was never known to be so full of com pany as at present. It is computed there are not less than 21n011 visitants there, including of course a great number of fashion ables. The approaching Grand Musical PestiVal, at York, probably has tended to augment the population. RYDE, SE in. linentss of the weather on Friday the 29th ult., attracted an immense concourse of people to the Ryde Regatta; .and the sailing-matches affartled much gratifi cation. During the last wherry-match it became calni, and a rowing-match took place between 15 revenue gigs,, which excited great interest, and contributed very much to the atnueeinents of the. day. Saturday was less propitious, yet meny.yechta, filled with beauty and fashion, were off the pier early in the morning; and as there was a good breeze, the sailing-matches afforded more real sport than the preceding day n The pilot vessels being permit.ed to use their 'square-sails, gave great interest to the scene, in allowing an opportunity lot the die-, play of much activity in making and taking in sail. In con sequence of the calm on the first, day., one of the matches, consisting of ten wherries, will sail on Monday the Bth inst. at eleven o'clock, when several !lowing Matches are also anticipated.—The Regatta 15a11 was attended by all the rank and fashion now residing here, amounting to neatly 200 per sons, anions;et whom we noticed—Lord k. and Lady Gower, ' Sir IL and Lady Blackwood, Sir A. and Lady Dickson, Ad miral Sir G. and Lady Eyre, Lady Dyer and family, Lady l3urrard and family, J. Fleming, lesq. M.P. and Lady, Vice- Admiral Taylor alai family, General Pare, and family.—The Theatre was crowded, and the exertions of the Thematic corps kept pace with the patronage they had received front the Sub sctibers to the Regatta. CoWES, SEPT. 6.—This delightful watering place continues full to execs. We have to regret, however, the departure of the Marquis and Marchioness of Anglesey and faintly, who left us for the season on Tuesday last: EIVNIMIIIIII, SEPT. 4.—Arrived at the Waterloo Hotel • (Oman's) :—II is Serene Highness the Prince of Lippe and • suite, and Major-General Sir Victor Von Arentsschild. POUTSMOUTII, SneT. 6.—Yesterday the Annual Meeting Of the Portsmouth and Portal' Philosophical Society was held at the Lecture-rooma, Mr. Franklin }lnward in the Chair; when a Report, highly gratifying to the Members and Friends of the Society, was read, and ordered to he printed. A consi. derable addition has been made to the Philosophical apparatus, and to the Museum, yet, so encreasing are the Society's finances, that the subscriptions proved fully equal to the ex penditure of the past year. The Members at present amount to 160, and several were proposed, in conformity with the new regulations, which provide for the admission of Ladies. The following Gentlemen were elected office bearers for the ensuing year :—Mr. Cull, President; Dr. John Porter and Mr. FM-chain, Viee-Presittents; Mr. Heather, Treasurer; Mr. Julian Slight, Secretary Messrs. Lane and Pricker, Curators of the apparatus and Museum. Mr. Henry Slight was elected to the I new office of Librarian, and the Rev. John Neave to that of Corresponding Secretary. On the occasion of the opening of the new Docks at Sheerness the first Lieutenant of the Prince Regent, 120, was promoted to the rank of Captatn,and the senior Mid shipman to be Lieutenant.

The Right' lion. Jonm llorE, Earl of Hope tour, who died at Paris on the 27th of August, to announced in our last, was Viscount Airthrie, Lord - Hive (Lord IlOpe toun, 1809, a.id Lord N:o.lry, British titles), Lord Lieutenant of Linlithgowshire, Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath, a General in the Army, Colonel of the 42d Foot (Royal Highlanders), Governor of the , Royal Bank of Scotland, Captain-General of the Royal Company of Archers, &c. &c. His Lordship succeeded James the last Earl, his half brother, in 1816, and was the only son of John Earl of Hopetoun, by his second marriage with Jane, daughter of Robert Oliphant of Rossie, Esq., and was' born on the 17th of August, 1765. He married, first, Elizabeth, daughter of the Hon. Charles Hope Weir, of Craigiehall, in 1798 ; who died in 1801, without issue. He married, second, Louisa Dorothea, third daughter of Sir John .Wedderburn, of Ballendean, Bart. by whom he has left John; now Earl of Hopetoun, born Nov. 15, 1303, eight other sons, and two daughters. His Lordship entered when young into the army, in which he served with great bravery and distinction. Ile was appoint ed Adjutant-General to the forces serving under the late gallant Sir Ralph Abercromby in the Leeward Islands, in . 1794 ; had the rank of Brigadier-General in the West 'lndies, where he was actively employed in the campaigns of 1794, 5,6, and 7, being particularly noticed in general orders, and in the public dispatches of the Commander-in-Chief, 'particularly, as having "on all occasions most willingly come for ward and exerted himself in times of dangei, to which he was not, called, from his situation of Adjutant-General."— He accompanied the British troops into Holland in August 1799, as Deputy Adjutant-General, but was so severely wound ed at the landing at the fielder, on the 27th of that month, that he was compelled to conic home. On his recovery he was ap pointed Adjutant-General to the armyserving under his Royal Highness the Duke of York, Oct. 19, 1709. In 11190, he accom panied Sir Ralph Abercromby as Adjutant-General on the me morable expedition to Egypt, and at the battle of Alexandria, March 21, 1801, he was wounded in the hand, and the army was thus for a time " deprived of the service of a most active, zealous, and judicious officer." He afterwards accompanied the British army to Spain and Portugal in 1808. At the battle of Corunna, January 18, 11169, in consequence of the wounds of Sir John Moore and Sir David Baird, the cam. mend devolved on his Lordship (then Lientenant-General Honourable John Hope) " to whose abilitiea and exertions (said the dispatches), in the direction of the ardent zeal and un conquerable valour of his Majesty's troops, is to be attributed, under Providence the success of the day, which terminated in the complete and 'entire repulse and defent of the enemy at every point of attack." On the 20th of April, 1809, he was invested witß the order of the Bath, and was afterwards appointed Commander-in-Chief in Irelard, where he remained a con. sidsrable' time. When lie left Ireland, he again joined the Duke of Wellington in the .Peninsula, and on the 14th of April, 11114, in a sortie made by the garrison of Bayonne, he was very severely woanded, and was taken prisoner by his horse falling with him, which made him cripple for a long time. This was his last service, as die war terminated next year. As a soldier, he was cool, determined, and brave ; and his conduct as a nobleman, landlord, and friend, was such as be came his high station. To his numerous family anti relatives his lons is much to be lamented, and few of his rank have died who have heen more sincerely regretted by all classes of the public.- (Edinburgh Courant.) EVGLISH OPERA 110LISE.---.1110 Farce entitled Hit or Miss was originally written for the pur pose of displaying, the inexhaustible spirit and huthour of MATHEWS in the part of cypher.

The excellent hitting of Mr. William Ward, who patronized the game, and played on the Cowes' side, obtained him 38 runs; and T. Hall (of pugilistic fame) obtained 50 from his own bat. A return-match between the same parties was aftawartis played, and also won by the Cowes 11. An excellent cold collation was provided by Mr. William Ward, whose affable conduct during the day Was as conspicu ous as on all occasions.

He did his 20 miles in the next four hours, when he fell lame, but he con. tinned on to Golden Farmer Hill, where he was put into his vehicle, unable to go on. The match was lost by 27 miles, which he hail eight hours to perform it in dile could. A ten don sprang from the pedestrian's right leg in going the 120th which kept getting worse.
