Letters have been received, via Liverpool, from the Havannali, dated the 11th of Sept. Tim only intelligence of importance they communicate is, that the convoy which sailed from that port to the relief of the Castle of St. Juan d'Ulloa, l►ad arrived at its destination and accomplished that object. The accounts from the South Ame rican Continent are not of so late a date as those we have received from other quarters. It is ad mitted that in Mexico affairs were in a prosper rm train for the cause of independence. We -have received this morning German Papers ° f "ems dates. We learn from the Austrian Observer of the 13th instant the gratifying intelligence, that at the commence ment of this month the g re a t military road was opened, which leads from Borneo in the Valtelinc, passes over the ridge of the nratela and the Stilferjock, and then descends into the to join the Inspruck road in the plains of Pradt. It is the highest road in Europe, for the summit of the Stilferjock " r rirhieb it passes is 8,400 feet above the level of the sea. In the inhospitable Alpine regions, where nature opposed at every b tePthe efforts of art, genius has triumphed with haypy boldness ores nn' difficulty. The traveller is astonished when he sees 'betimes, by the erection of bridges, or by galleries hewn et the rocks or built of stone, the most frightful precipices are amillounted, and obstacles of every kind overcome which united * the lame point, placing in the way vast mountains rising P r Pendicularly from the willies, or prodigious avalanches whielt i ltd rolled from the summits. It does honour to the Govern " tett dist by the erection of very solid covered passages of stone, 4t 4111 provided a secure retreat from the danger of avalanches ' 4 4 the whole roa d. I n one part these galleries are car ried te the length of eight hundred yards. Care has been btlinik nelY taken to provide shelter for travellers, who when °° Trteed by sudd en storms o f sn ow or high winds, might I 'A danger of losing their way, or being buried in the very spacious inns, built on the highest part °f the mad, afford the wanderer at all times a secure retreat, ; 1 1 1 1131 * Persons appointed by the Government will a ff ord L at a "7 kind of assistance and refreshment. On the tat r the Stelferberg, where Nature appears In all her sublimity, the attention of the traveller is attracted by Itle mutes of the Adda, which rushes from a rock at a very Mi t height, and by the celebrated summit of the Order, covered *WI (sternal snow, which rises far above the clouds. The 4 / 1 1 ° e rmut beautiful waterfalls and diversified prospects are ss Inter esting as the singular forms of the rocks and tht "" we llse glaciers which hang over the willies beneath. The lise rztt and descent of the road are almost always easy ; the rail -14 al l the side is erected on the whole road, and the magnifi. 4::°t the wo r k i s the more calculated to excite aston i s hment, 4 , le recollected that it was first begun in the Summer di3l 4 and that in these rude and elevated regions, the work 1°414 be carried on only for a few months in the year. t he Frankfort Journal of the 18th Instant tu ttlatio the arrival of the Duke of Baum sw lc it at Carlsruhe ° bate lath ; and by an article dated Munich, the 16th of this ! a l*, we are enabled to announce that the Queen of Reverie. "so fie recovered from her severe indisposition that no more I t tletina of her AI A.TE T health were. to be published after St day. We extract the following article from the Argentrins Uiscsoc, of the 18th October, which we think puts beyond a debt that Sir FREDERICK ADAM went in person to the seat te theGreek Government, and obtained a revocation of the of. til liaTe Greek Proclamation : " TritEsTE, OCT. 6.—Two days before Captain Diamsn. _Pitios who arrived here in 16 days from Zante, left that ✓ tbe Lord High Commissioner of the lo nian Islands, Sir • eider*, arrived there from Napoli di Itomania, and after 11°4 ,___ I rmitig 24 hours' quarantine sailed for Corfu .

Administration, and that they have really at .. " rt the welfare and honour of the Empire. i t may surely be inferred, that if Lord 4r itAva deems it proper to abate in his bosti it/ tu Ministers, he must do so with the fai l concurrence and approbation of his father, ten C tosvENott. It is well known that the t t 4 Nobleman has been for some years one of n e moat reso l ute adversaries o f Mi n i s t e rs, and like it may be also inferred that, observing the 1:1.°41)orous condition of the country, the dignified f *actor w hi c h i t h ol d s i n t h e est i ma ti on of all (Il ign States, the caution with which our Go. , " l imant has avoided embroiling itself io dis- Ptl ttl between other Powers and their former POsie ss i sti 0138, and th e genera l lin e o f conduct per (4l by Ministers, but more particularly their ;teemlt; _ efforts to lessen the hurtle!), of the by the reduction of taxes, as far as is con tcat with the national safety and unavoidable f :Pe . aditure, must convince those who really 14 7 1 for : the interest of the country that v : i i`tera do all in their power to conciliate wo u l f ic opinion by their attention to the national are and honour. We do not menu by these observations.or to cast any reflections on the Cheshire, 1.117 other Win ch CLuBS, but, on tha contrary, rather to suppose that their leaders are not in 1 opposition from interested motives, but actuated by a sincere regard for the Constitution, and that finding Ministers have no design to infringe upon it, they are likely to follow the course of Lord BELORAVE and his noble father, and no longer to oppose an Administration from which the Country has derived such important benef►ts, and whose system is likely to be productive of still greater advantages, if not thwarted by party feel ings or interested malignity. We received yesterday Gibraltar Papers to the sth instant. The only important part of their contents is a communication from the Dutch Ad miral in the Mediterranean to the Dutch Consul at Minorca, stating that he had received orders from his Government to confine himself in future to the protection of his own commerce and ship ping, and requesting him to transmit the intelli gence to the Spanish Authorities, in order that they might take the necessary measures for the security of their trade and vessels, and to guard against any unexpected attack from the Algeriucs. The following are extracts : FROM THE CIIIIOIfICLE Or TILE 3D. The Minorca Diary of the 2d inst. contains the following among other articles:— 1 Ormuz. INTELLIGENCE. The Governor of the Island has receivedit communication from the Dutch Consul, the con. tents of which are as follow : Netherlands Consular Office in the 13alsark Islands. Rear-Admiral Wolterbeck, Commandant. General of the Squadron of the King of the Netherlands, tells me, under this day's date, what I here transcribe.' • " On board M.N.:If. Ship Holland, in Port Mahon, Aug. 31. " Sin—Having arrived in this port, I hasten to inform you, that by an order of his Netherland Majesty's Minister fur Fo reign Affairs, which reached me in the Bay of Algiers on the 19th inst., I shall be under the necessity of confining myself to the protection of my own commerce and shipping. " Although I take far granted that his Majesty's Govern ment and that of his Catholic Majesty have reciprocally com municated to each other the motive and ground of this occur rence, yet I deem it necessary to apprise you of the same, and to request that you will communicate it confidentially to the Governor of this Island, or to any other authority that you may think proper, that they may take their measirves for the secu rity of the Spanish commerce and shipping, and guard against any unexpected attack from the Algerines, who after the treaty concluded with the English, will certainty fit out their ships of war.

Timm Trig PAPER OF Tilt fiTtt• " Camp Marshal Alverez Campana has been appointed Cap tain-General of Andalusia." In a letter from Genoa, of the 11th instant, the recent successes of the Greeks are more fully detailed than in nay communication that has yet been made public. At the commence ment of the action with the Egyptian fleet, ISMAIL GIBRALTAR was killed by a cannon shot, which, being made known, greatly discouraged the other commanders. The action was, however, main tained for ten hours with great fury. The Mus sulman armament may be considered to have been put completely hors de combat. But a comparatively small proportion of the fleet es caped, the largest ship, the "tau, was totally destroyed, and the lOU of the PACIIA is a pri soner. Mr. lIIr.L, a King's Messenger, arrived at the Foreign Office, Downing-street , on 'Saturday evening, with dispatches from Lord GnANYILLE, the British Ambassador at Brussels. Mr. WELcst and Mr. ItojiNsow, King's Mes sengers, arrived in town from Paris on Sunday, at which city Messrs. KATZ and A YELIN, also King's Messengers, had arrived. A vessel,called the Norfolk, has arrived in the Downs from Quebec, the Captain of which states' that ho saw the great timber ship, the Columbus, ashore in the river St. Lawrencb. Mr. Secretary feet. has sent down into the Potteries two of the Bow-street patrol, authven and Bishop, to attend on the Police Committee, and obtain proper information of the state of the Potteries, to report the same to Government, to enable them to adopt suitable means to preserve the peace of the place. Mr. Peet, has presented 1001. towards the library of the University Club. Lord NETERYILLS has subscribed 101. to the funds of the Catholic Association. SOUTHAMPTON, OcT. 23.—The -Camilla steam packet, which arrived on Thursday from Havre de Grace, brings an account that the pretended son of Louis ACV I. arrived a i n t y t p he erisst a oe b nn o iba v yy e p tt la Fe c r A e i d 1)1tohe mo r n i ng to A i re na n i l tn e hg r e i i c ae a nodnsultellre took 2 Ga ()th l y, place e a n a t d i s; y s n u g t Island, between Lieutenant I.— , of the Royal' Marine Artil lery, and Mr. S—, of Portsmouth. Lieut. was at tended by a Mr. G—, and Mr S— by Captain M --- . Two shots were exchanged by each, when the parties were re- conciled—(Hainprhire Chronicle.) A lady of rank who had written a comedy, sent it with a civil message to Mr. HAnnts, the patentee of Covent-Garden Theatre, offering it him for nothing. Mr. H. observed that her ladyship appeared to know the exact value of it. A person who was present at a conversation in which a very dull play was talked of, attempted a defence of it, by saying, " It was not hissed."—" Very true," replied another, " I grant you that ; but no one can hiss and gape at the same tame." When Louis X.VIII. resided at Hartwell, the seat of the Duke of BUCKINGHAM, hie MAJENTT frequent. ly visited Berklianistead, and dined at an inn there. The landlord's daughter, Miss PAGE, was particularly noticed by the KING for her amiable conduct, and on the Kuala's return to France he invited Miss PAGE to visit Paris. A few months since she accepted the invitation, and was most graciously re ceived by the MoNrAnctr. A suite of apartments were set apart for her in the Tuileries, and the Chamberlain was directed to show her what was worthy of attention in Paris. She frequently dined at the KING'S table, and was received and caressed by most of the Royal Family of France. On quitting the capital, the KING presented her with 2001. which his MAJESTY begged she would accept, as a token of his friendship, to pay her ex penses. restoration of St. Saviour's Church, South wark, has been just completed, and forms a splendid ornament In the access to the new London Bridge on the Borough side.— Considerable part of the old buildings between the Church and the River are now about to be removed for an abutment to the new bridge, and to widen the future street, to which the bridge will join itself, ind this ancient and magnificent edifice will be fuUy exhibited to the view of the public. IVhilst a visitor is on the spot, his antiquarian research will be much gratified on en. tering the building adjoining the east end of the choir, still re , mining the name of the Spiritual Court, where multitudes of Protestants In the days of Mary received sentence of condem nation to the flames. The light Gothic pillars supporting the roof of this building will not fail to be admired ; and in the same spot is the elegant monument of Dr. Launcelot Andrews, Bishop of Winchester, with his recumbent figure in poutificoli bus. In one of the side aisles of the naive will be seen the mo. nument of Gower the poet. The tower of this church, as well as the east end, has been restored under the direction of Mr. George Gwilt, and is an able specimen of simple and elegant yet massive Gothic architecture. The monastery and Bishop's palace near the church are quite in ruins. In the latter, when inhabited by Biehop Gardiner, the fury and cruelty of super stition raged to their greatest heights.

Til TII EAT ItES. DRURY-LA.NE.—We cannot compliment the Managers of this Theatre on the entertainments which they have provided for the Public since the opening for the present season. But we con clude that their Stars, as they are stiled, have not arrived in town to spread radiance over their do mains. Last night was performed the play of Pizarro, which, however excellent iu sentiment, incidents, and fable, is now too much hackneyed to retain its former attraction. The novelty of the night was Mr. ARMSTRONG, from the Dublin Stage, in the part of Alonso. We are by no means inclined to criticize the first efforts of a performer before a London tribunal, which al ways appears so formidable to a new actor as to restrain the due exertion of his porters. We shall therefore wait for a future effort of Mr. ARMSTRONG, and at present merely state that his person is very well adapted for charac ters of the higher Drama, and that h© appears to act from the dictates of good sense. his action Is certainly redundant, and his voice not of the best order ; but, for the reason above assigned, we shall only observe that he received a liberal reception from the audience. Mrs. BONN gave due force toElvira,and we are glad to find that,not with standing reports to the contrary, Mrs. W. NV UST retains her situation ; she gave Cora with inte resting expression. WALLACK was the Rolla, and he is perhaps the best now on the London hoards. The house had but a scanty attendance. PIIILLIPPE, THE COMEDIAN. The affair of Pit t t.t.t PPL the actor has, we learn, produced a strong and very general Impression on the Parisian populace. " 4-has ks Prefres"—" A-bas ks C'alotins," are tncriptions which have since then frequently appeared upon the walls of the churches during the day , and have at night been effaced by the police. We feat the clerical authorities in France will go on until they will provoke more hostility than they will be well able to combat. Their party Is distinguished at once by its violence and its weakness ; if diey mean to fight the battles of the Revolution over again,the policy is intelligible ; if they do not, they sadly want both prudence and foresight, and sound, as they do, the note of preparation. What spell of folly could have induced the clergy to force themselves, as it were, upon the public displeasure, b refusing to open the ckurch doors to the mortal remains of PitiLLITPX ? Does the profes sion of an actor necessarily so corrupt his life, and taint his moral character. as to render him unfit to enter into the kind dem of !leaven ? If this be so, then is the Sovereign and the Government of France guilty, beyond all nations, in holding forth to this profession every possible encouragement--in taking its members under their especial patronage—in main taining more theatres at the public expence, in Paris alone, than is to be found in the capitals of any five kingdoms in Europe—and these too at such easy prices of admission as to give an entrance to the very lowest class, and courting the crowd by every diversity, whether of dramas, melo-dramas, opera, vaudeville, pantomime,imd petitss pieces, in which acting can he made to furnish diversion and delight! ! How can all this be, if the profession of an actor contains within itself the prin ciples of its own corruption, and ministers to its own depravity ? If to escape from thecharge of being an accessary, you admit, — as in truth and common justice you must,—that a man of talents on the stage may be as kind a friend—as indulgent a fa. ther—as faithful a subject—and as honest a man as if he followed any other profession, or filled any other station of life, then what insensate zeal is that which refugee to consign to the earth, with the accustomed solemities of Christian burial, the remains of one who, confessedly, may be as fit to enter Heaven, and as likely—ah, more likely—to be received into it, than any one of those who, in the venom of their priestly bigotry, would spit upon his shroud ?-- The Almighty, in his b ene volence, has endowed his creatures with various gifts, which tit them f.or the endless diversities of their condition here below ; and are those who devote their talents to the moral amusement o . f mankind, and to the instructive chee rfulness of the age in which they live—are they to be treated, when dead, its re probates and outcasts?
