THE ARMY.

The Ist battalion of the 21st Foot, which we have likewise mentioned as being arrived at Port - mouth, is to replace part of these troops - which are ordered for Ireland, along with the 9311. Detachtnents of Artillery continue daily to proceed from Woolwich fur embarkation for Flan ders. Two Companies of the 2d Garrison Battalion have arrived from Bermuda. The 15th Hussars, and the 28th and 32d Re giments of Foot, have embarked at Deal for Ostend. • The-Ist Battalion of the44th Foot is to replace part of those ordered for Ireland. PORTSMOUTH, MAY I2.—Landed here yester day, the 2d battalion of Royal Marines, com manded by Lieutenant-Colonel Sir JAMES MAL COLM, after an arduous service of three years. It is a singular coincidence that this battalion should have been at the storming of Aswega, when they were led on by their gallant Lieutenant-Colonel, who 'was the first to escalade the walls), the Northern frontier fortress, and Point-a-Petre, in (ieargia, at the South-eastern extremity- of the United States of America. This battalion like wise bore a distinguished part at the glorious battle of 'Bladensburg)), which was followed by the surrender of Washington, and at Baltimore, where.the gallant Robs fell. It is said that the celebrated Esroz Y MINA, whose arrival in England we yesterday noticed, left France in consequence of the late occurrences in that country, and that to effect his escape he was obliged, to travel through Spain iu• disguise.— He comes here to seek an asylum, under the pro tection of the British Government. - A vessel arrived yesterday from Teneriffe, after a short passage. She brings intelligence that the country had been without rain the whole of the season, and a famine equally fatal to that which took place in 1812 was dreaded by the people. Some consolation, however, was afforded the Spaniards by the knowledge.of the peace between Great Britain and America. . . - • • tilElloirAt - 17esterday . , at half first twelvc_ o'clock, he: .MAJESTY, Princesses Anti, ,a t&ided by 4i3s arrived at thF Queeli's Palace from Winas'or, eko,rted by a party of light lioriF, The Pukes 'of.

" The Fortune of War," froin the pert of Mr. KENNY, to whom the public are indebted for Raising the Wind; Love, Law, and Physic, and several other popular farcioal'Pieces. As for that last night offered to the town, a short account will suffice. The scene of action is in Germany, and as the title imports, amid warlike operations. The incidents hinge upon a story like the, following : One Gruntrum (MATHEws,) an over-grown'and knavish cattle-feeder, in the town of Bustleherg, makes love to an a m orous and shrewish widow, Puilendorl (Mrs. DAVENPORT,) Of the ' same place, while Maurice (Mr. Jorms,). a flighty bustling poet, the Nephew of the said Grotaritiiz, is iu dove with Adela (Miss FOOT,) the daughter-ini•law of Mrs. Puffendorf—Maurice is of course and ex - officio poor, being entirely dependent on his Uncle and the Muses. Atter a very sho - rt and ludicrOttS courtship an immediate marriage is decided 6n between the senior contracting parties, Gruntrian and Mrs. Puffendorf, but the lovers, Maurice and his fair one, are crossed, by their being deprived of the favour of Gruntrum, at the instigation of 114 blooming bride. Meantime the army to *via, Gruntrum, in the exercis e of hiS - prOf e ssion,, had sold diseased cattle, approaches, and he is obliged to fly to the woods for concealment. fle is . there discovered by a party of soldiers', and, through a series of ludicrous mistakes, detained as it spy and a dangerous person. Some laughable scene's ensue at the fort where Gruntrum is confined, in . which a principal agent is a professed spy and swindler, Baron TCheedleberg, alias Reynard an derscamp (Mr. LfsToN,) who in the last character had been the confidential friend, and partner in some - of the knaveries, of GrUntrion.-31auriCe volunteers into the‘army, performs a signal ser vice, is promoted—extricates his uncle discovers the father of Adele, who is the reported dead husband of the supposed widow. The author has probably been Much indebted for 'the great success with which the piece went off to the novelty of the scene of action. The dialogue is occasionally very neat ; but several of the scenes might be judiciously curtailed.— There is a want of variety in the characters, which somewhat detracts from the merits of •this , which indeed seems to Lave been hastily executed on a design' that would have given scope to some thing better. AcATITEws in Gruntrum, and JONES, in the flighty part, were very successful. LISTON, as Vandericamp, extorted muchlaughter, and made us regret that the author' had not bestowed more pains on the character. Airs. GIBBS and Air. BLAtlctrsan had little to do-, but they made the most of it. Mr. ABBOTT, as the Commandant of the fort, displayed great spirit, and indeed almost the whole comic strength of Covent Garden contributed to the eclat of this piece, - •which unanimously passed muster, and will serve for a long time to entertain the frequenters of this Theatre. Yesterday Lord AIELvILLE held a levee, at his Office at the Admiralty, which was numerously attended.' Yesterday the Right Hon. CHARLE6 NOT gave a grand dinner to the Marquis of - BATH, Earl BATHtJRST, Earl CAssuLts; Earl CHOLMON.- D ELEY, and a laige party, at his house in Down street. CRIM. COL.--.l'he Action brought by Major WARNER against Captain JONES, came on to he tried in the King's Bench this forenoon. The criminal connection was very imperfectly proved, as the Major was the only person present at the detection; but the evidence of the servants, who witnessed the scene that followed, was sufficiently _presumptive to warrant the opinion of a fore-gone conclusion. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was Coun sel for the plaintiff, and Mr. SrARLETT for the defendant. The Jury found a. Verdict for One TkoUsund Pounds. THE ARTISTS' GENERAL •_BENEVOLENT * INSTITUTION. The First Anniversary Dinner of ti is Institu tion, which is highly honourable to the Founders, took place yesterday at the Albion Tavern, Al dersgatc7street, The Chair was taken by the Mike Of . KENT ) between whom and the Duke of .Su:asEN.W!is placed the venerable - President of the RoYal.Acadeiny. ;The Earl of POMFRET, PiTea PEN-vs, Esq. Dr, Wit.t.ts, HeNtey WILLIS, Esq, *ir WILLIAM 13EECIIIIV, Mr. TIANER, with other INiembers of the Royal Academy, were present, and a considerable assemblage of Artists, who, we doubt not, will in due time do honour to that In stitution. It is:bardlyliossirde to speak too highly in praise of the festivity, blended with benevo lence, which characterized the Meeting. The Duke of KEl' 'supported the Chair with ease, spiritondeuergy. After the health of " Ills Majesty," proposed ,by the Chairman, had been drank, in respectful silence, his Royal Highness gave in snccess " The Prince Itegent - ;" "The Queen and 'llclal Family ;" "The Army and Navy ;" and,," The Artists' General Belle.. volent Institation.7 .of which, toasts were received with the warmest applause. Mr. WEST gave . , Their-Royal Highnesses the Dulies.of Kent and Snssez, joint. Patrons o f th e A r ti s t s ' General enopyo/ent Instit u ti on ." . (Which excited zealous and repeated chierings). The Cii4IRMAN then gave, " The ROyal Academy, with its President?' The warmth with which this toast was re-, ceived, particularly the latter part of it, induced the President to rise and testify his (banks to the company. He gave a brief account of the origin of that Institution, the honour of fOunding which be attributed solely to his.MAJgsrv,'who had al \7‘raYs been a liberal and zealoP's Patron of the Arts, and by whose command Mr. WEsT and three `or four distingui§hed Artists of the time assembled, and under the countenance of his MAJESTY ar ranged. the outline of an Institution, which has produced a race of Artists who are far superior to any - which. the Continent has pos'sessed during the period in which it has existed. This Ad dress, particularly those passages which related to our venerable Sovereign, prodpeed unanimous peals of approbation. The Duke of SUSSEX then, gave--( The British Institution." This toast was tollovkil by " The Ladies, Subscribers to the Artists' General Benevolent Institution," pro posed by-the Chairman.. Gallantry ; mingling with admiration anti benevolence, rendered 'this toast in the highest degree acceptable. The Cbairmaa also propoSed— The Pro'ri:.ional Directors of the. Artists' General Benevo.• lent Institution—then• The. artists' Joint Stock SOciety anti Benerolipit Fund—The Stesvirds of the 'clay—The Stewards Elect—and the Professional Gentleme'n (Musicians) who gra tuitou.styattended on the occasion. All these toasts were of codrse received with due applause. In ifie, course, of the day, the Royal Chairman Addressed the Company, and stated the purpose of the Institution, viz, for the Relief of the Widows And Ot'phans. of Artists in the United Kingdom, explained, the dilKerence between that and other Institutions of a similar nature, and with ;Anima tion and :e . tognence enfol'eing•the object in view. T his speech came hone to the feelings of the com pany, and a liberal contribUtion followed, in which the Royal Duke and Many Gentlemen present distinguished th.:ln'selveS . , particularly PETER DE. Esq. who 'subscribed a kundred pounds. This - Gentleman subscribed a thousand pounds to the New Minical FUnd, and is always conspicuous on' charititble occasions. Mr. 11,414,AND, one of th,e chief promoters of the Institution for which. the meeting assembled, addressed the company in support of it, and Mr. YOUNG, the respectable Engraver, and Keeper of The British Institution, read the List. of Contrib u ti on s, which was not a little gratifying to the M eet i ng) as it .gave an auspicious omen of the success which is likely to attend the Institution, -in honour of which the company aSSembled. regret that we have only been able, from the pressure of other mat ter., to give an outline of a Meeting which is in the highest degree honourable to the Founders, which promises a liberal support to objects of be nevolence, as long as the country shall exist, and which constituted so delightful a repast to every benevolent mind, as will doubtless render it powerfully attractive on all future occasions. The Duke of Ic.ENT retired at a late hour, and consigned the Chair to the Duke of SUSSEX, who nut only Addressed the 'company in a very im pressive manner in favour of the Institution, but mingled many strykcs of pleasantry with what he said, and gratified the company with the old song of " The'Britieli Grenadiers," which he snug s'i tlt admirable-,spirit and humour. indeed, the Royal Brothers deserve the warmest eulogiums for their conduct on the occasion ; the one for the unaf fected dignity with which he stated what may be styled the business of the Meeting, and . the other for the affability and good humour with which he entertained the Company. A Dutch Paper contains the following, extract of a'tetter frbtri Paris, dared the sth of May " The preparations making for defence in the immediate vicinity of Paris have caused such general alarm, teat a number of persons are preparing to leave the city, and have ,provided themselves with passports for that purpose. ' " The Paris Papers speak loudly of the voluntary enrol ments that ate thkingplace; anti among other things, assert that in one day more than 1,000 young men entered at. he 'Hotel de Ville. It is difficult to beiieve this. Certain it is that very ,few volunteers are publicly seen, and those few Chiefly composeil . af indigent persons, whose poverty and lie- CeSsities have driven them to this. None in.a fixed state of life offer tlitutselvcs. " The ►core opti!ent class of our inhabitants are almost uni versally dissatisfied with the present - state of affairs, and do not scruple to express it openly ; as was lately very manifest ly displayed at the Opera, which is frequented by few of the lower classes or the 'Military. The piece performed was Odipe a Coltume, In which are the following lines : " Mon nom latrine, moo nom est en horreur au monde ! " Les peoples elfray4s me rejettent loin d'eux. • • " These verses, which the audience evidently applied to the Emperor, were received with three rounds of applause." The impress is established again at Newcastle and Sunderland. It is report 4.4 that several of the Gentlemen practising in the Courts of Ki ag'i Bench, Common Pleas, and Chancery Bar, will shortly be elevated to the rank of Connsel. Among the names mentioned as likely to enjoy this honour, are the following, viz. SCARLETT, RAINR, ABBOT, BELL, ‘VBATI4bRALI, COOKE, and GURNEY; MI% - Seliraia VAUOILIN CO be ilia 's' Serjeant. • •
