LISBON, MAY 15. fallW e have to notify an involuntary error, into which we have 1 en, respecting the destination of the voyage of his Royal ,:tighne ss Don Miguel. We now learn that his Royal High "e'4 goes directly to the port of Brest on board the Psrola, ac rraPanied Z ebra, English frigate Lively, Capt. Elliot, and the ti l :ench brig Captain Aut., , uste de Gouvel, which are in ,ns Port .

[Here follow observations on the wisdom of this mea sure, and the advantages it promises to all his subject, includ ing the Brazilians—that is, those who have not thrown off their 411.egian ce. ] an Majesty, desiring to mark the anniversary of his birt:t b y ~ . 4 ! act of liberality to the crew of the Windsor C astk, sent to the Captain 500 dollars, to be distributed among the crew of that vessel and of the Lively. Their Royal Highnesses the In 'ante made presents to Lady Thornton, the consort of the British Ahbassador, and gave to the lady of Captain Dashwood a meg- Ittioent present of precious stones. Ills Majesty landed to-day from the IVindror Castle at half- Past six in the afternoon, at the Marine Arsenal. On leaving the vessel, his Majesty was complimented by a salute, which was repeated by all the other vessels in the harbour, and the trews, who manned the yards, gave the usual cheers. The Cap tain of the Windsor Castle, with his officers, accompanied his Majesty in the barge, followed by another boat with the ship's band of music. No expressions can paint the enthusiasm which the immense crowd oflahabitants of this capital, of all classes 4 / 1 (1 all ages and both sexes, manifested towards their august std adored Sovereign at the moment of his landing. The sir resounded with acclamations, the people embraced each - ?ther, tears of pleasure bathed their cheeks and nothing was teamfrom every side but cries of " Our King ! our Father !" 'What an interesting sight for any one who has a truly Portu '3ll ese heart ! What a happy sign of the unanimity of our sen lin:Lents ! In the evening the city was splendidly illumisated, and the Rteatest satisfaction prevailed. We subjoin a copy of a letter addressed to the ', F it% by the Inf ant Don M IGUEL, and of the 4 - I :fu-'s reply : - - LETTER OF THE INFANT DON MIGUEL. k To lov e an d to serve your Majesty, has been, ever since h,ilad knowledge of myself, the principal obligation of my Le i and the only object of my ambition.

I 'lnest further, that your Majesty will receive my as- Ilufances that I will unceasingly address the most fervent rprayers to Heaven, that your reign may be tranquil and pros feus, being ready to shed my blood in attestation of my fidelity."

" THE KING." We have taken from the Dodo of Tuesday the important demi-official article on the South American question, of the intended publication o f Which by the French Government we had b een previously apprized by our private informa tion from Paris. We stated a few days since that the Great Cabinets are resolved that the present campaign b etween the Turks and the Greeks shall be the lest, and that a sincere desire exists amongst all t he Powers to see Greece rescued, not only from the calamities of war, but from the future mis rule of her old oppressors. A document, which He have extracted from the Constilutionnel, ex planatory of the wishes and intentions of Russia, Proves the accuracy of our statement. namburgh Papers to the 28th ult. have ar- Ilved. They announce that the disputes between 'ussia and the United States, relative to the Preposterous claim of the former to the north west coast of the American Continent, have "een amicably settled, to the entire satisfaction °f the respective States, whose relations are re- Placed on the most friendly footing. THE THEATRE. DIIERY..LANE. - The benefit of 'Mr.' was very numerously attended—a due tribute to the talents of • this popular actor, and the zeal with which he is at all times ready to discharge his duty to the public. The first piece was The Cabinet. Miss STEPHENS was obliged to attend at the Concert of Ancient Music, and the part of Florella was performed for the first time by Miss POVEY. She was by no means wanting in musical merit, and altogether supported the part with more vivacity than we expected. BRAILAM exerted all his powers in Orlando, and was much applauded. It is hardly necessary to say that lIARLET, in Whimsical°, was all life and divert ing vivacity. Dow'rox's Peter was marked by manly bluntness and humour. The I:Aterlude, entitled Two Wives, or a flint to Husbands, fol lowed, and enabled Illat,zy to appear in four different characters, all of which he supported with spirit Rad humour. The last piece was Killing no Murder, which, by its whimsical ex travagance, detained and gratified the audience till a late hour. In the Court of King's Bench this morning, the cause of the King on the prosecution of BAUD ER BEAUMONT, ESQ. V. THOMAS TEURTELL AND oillcas, came on before a crowded Court. The Indictment charged the defeudauts with a conspiracy to defraud the County Insurance Office of 1,9001. in consequence of a fire which occurred in Watling-street, belonzing•to the de fendant T. Thurtell. After the Learned Coun sel (Mr. Scarlett) had stated the nature of the indictment, a number of witnesses were called to support his case, and which were left under examination, on the part of the prosecu tion, when we went to press.—The trial is ex pected to last the whole of the day. The Douse of Commons was adjourned last night under rather ludicrous circumstances.— About six o'clock, there were nearly one hun dred Members present, when a discussion arose upon a City Bill, which seemed likely to lead to a division. At the very moment that the dissent ing Members were leaving the House upon the division, an alarm was given that the balloon was majestically floating over the roof of the House. This produced a diversion, and Honourable Members rushed out to indulge a very excusable curiosity, in such numbers, that those who remained behind were insufficeut to make a House ; for when it came to be count ed out, there were only 31 present (the number required being 40), and the Speaker was there fore obliged to adjourn the House amidst a good deal of laughing. Th• name of the Bill was the Reduced Interest Bill. It certainly turned out on this occasion to be of inferior interest to the balloon.--(Morning Paper.) LEIIMINGTON, NEAR NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, MAY 31.—Not in the memory of any one living has there been such a tumultuous expression of joy as was witnessed here on Saturday afternoon, on _the arrival of Jossrit LAME, Esq. of Lemmington-Hall, with his amiable and. accomplished bride. —At about half-past 6 o'Clock, Mr. Lamb's chariot drawn by four beautiful grey horses, was met near Denton-Hall, on the high road, by upwards of 2000 of the workmen employed in the glass-houses, collieries, &c. in which he is concerned. A great number of the wires and female relations of these fine fellows also attended, and swelled the procession to a very imposing extent indeed. Three or four bands of music greatly enlivened the scene, and the display of an immense number of flags, and banners threw over the whole an air of joy and jubilee, which reminded one of the celebration of some great public event. It was, however, simply the offering of congratulatory homage—deeply felt, it must be admitted— to a master whose kindness of manner, for a great number of years, had justly endeared him to the affectionate regards and best wishes of all who live under his employment.— On the carriage first making its appearance, Mr. Lamb and his bride were greeted with the loudest cheering, which lasted for some minutes, the music at the same time striking up their merriest notes. The horses, however, were soon removed from the carriage, and about thirty fine young men set off with it to Lemmington-Hall, the immense crowd following and cheering all the way, which is upwards of a mile. Safely arrived at his hospitable seat, the worthy gen tleman harangued the delighted multitude from a front window up-stairs, assuring them all "that their more than kind recep don of Mrs. Lamb and himself that day, would never be obliterated from his mind. Their presence afforded him the greatest satisfaction ; and he trusted they would ever find him one who would strenuously endeavour to render their reciprocal connexions pleasant—and such as would tend to insure him a continuance of that affectionate devotion which he had so pleas ingly experienced on that very interesting day -_.a day which he would proudly remember "as long as memory held her seat."—Loud and continued cheering followed this speech, and the firing of 21 guns from a temporary battery vastly heightened the effect. It was then :intimated to the workmen that they would find refreshment in strong ale, &c. till they were weary of it, at all the public-houses in Lemmington, all the houses, in fact, being thrown open by Mr. Lamb's special directions. The consequence it is unnecessary to add ; the potent influence of Sir John Barleycorn made hundreds impotent. It affords us great pleasure, however to state, that nothing but the great est joy and conviviality predominated till a late hour in the night, except occasionally a salvo loud from the artillery in the battery. Qu' ils vivent long temps-- Toujours heureux—toujours contents Yesterday afternoon, at four o'clock, a Cabinet Council assembled at the Foreign Oflice, Down ing-street, which was attended by the greatest part of the Cabinet Ministers. The Cabinet sat in deliberation for nearly an hour. '!'he Cabinet Ministers dined with Viscount MELVILLE yester day, at his residence at the Admiralty. Yesterday, between twelve and one o'clock, Prince LEopor.n, attended by Baron STOCKMAR, left Marlborough-house for Claremont. The Princess AUGUSTA, the Duchess of KENT, tile Prince of LEIMINGEN, and the Princess FEO - paid visits to the Duchess of CLARENCE yesterday. IPSWICH, MAY 31.—The ninth anniversary of the IPSWICH PITT CLUB was celebrated on Thursday last by a dinner, at the King's Arms Inn, WILLIAM BATLEY, Esq. in the Chair. The same feelings of genuine loyalty and festive harmony that ever distinguished this meeting were exhibited on this occasion.

NORWICH, J UNE 2.---At a time like the Pre sent, when it is the fashion to degrade the church by vilifying the clergy, and carefully selecting every . anecdote true or false, to degrade them in the eyes of the public, it is with singular satisfaction that we are enabled to record the generous conduct of the Rev. W. J. CARVER, Rector of Winfarthing, who had reduced his composition for tithes, to such a standard, as to meet the wishes o f t h e whole b o d y o f his numerous parishioners.

The annual pleasurable sports of the Downs commenced this day, and the different races were closely run, finely con tested, and produced the expected gratification. As usual on a first day the company was by no, means numerous or se lect, but yet there was a tolerable sprinkling of beauty and fashion. The light-fingered gentry were on the alert,' and several trifling pilfering transactions took place.. An accident oc occurred which created some alarm—young Buckle (a pupil and nephew of the celebrated jockey) who rode Mr. Goddard's horse I'resentiment, on passing the Stand on coming home for the Gold Cup, was so pressed by the crowd, that his 'iorse ran against some persons and was thrown down ; the youth, who fbr a short time was under the horse, was taken up seemingly dead and carried to the Judges' stand, where he was soon at tended by medical men, who pronounced him not dangerously hurt, there being no fractures. We are happy to see four new grand stands erected, two of which are patronised by the Earl of Derby, and we hope to have to announce. a better regulation of the Course, which now, and for a considerable time, has been most shamefully neglected, and productive of considerable danger. For particulars see below._ The Craven Stakes of 10 sovs. each • three-year olds, Est. ; four, fist. ; five, Bst. 91b. ; six, fist. 1 ib. ; and aged, 9st. 51b. The last mile and quarter.

The candidates who propose to contend this arduous match, although landsmen, flatter themselves with the greatest confidence of succeeding, notwithstanding the odds are decidedly against the performance of this undertaking. TISK ST. CATHERINE'S DOCK BILL.-Tuesday evening, the precinct of Saint Catherine's, near the Tower, presented a scene of almost indescrib able gaiety, originating from the rejoicings of the inhabitants at the withdrawing of the Bill pre sented to Parliament for the erection of the con templated new Docks. The houses of every street, lane, and alley, within the precinct, were illumi nated, some very brilliantly and tastefully, end many of them displayed curious devices in allu sion to the Bill and its fate. The shipping on the River, contiguous to the place intended for the erection of the . Dock, were not backward on the occasion, having hoisted their colours, and exhibited other symbols of congratulation. It was formerly mentioned that Mr. KEAN, the tragedian, had purchased ground for building a villa in the Island of Bute. The situation which Mr. Kean has chosen, on the banks of Loch Fad, is truly beautiful, and the villa, in which be in tends to reside, is now in a state of great forward ness. It is to consist of two stories, with a neat front. Mr. KLAN has, at his own expence, con structed a road through the planting on the west side of the lake, which renders the access to the delightful scenery of Loch Fad comparatively easy; and on Barron Hill, which rises immedi ately behind the villa, there are a number of fine footpaths, so that the extensive vi ew w hi c h thi s hill affords may be enjoyed with little trouble to the lovers of the picturesque. Mr. KEAN has ali-ady expended a considerable sum in his im provements, and when the whole is completely finished, it will show the good taste of this mas ter of the histrionic art.--(Greenock Advertiser.)

There were four other nests besides those above mentioned, on the same tree; but the person who discovered this motley as semblage " did not like," to use his own lan guage,•" to disturb the harmony of so good so ciety," to learn what species they were of.— (Dumfries C ourier.) On Thursday last, about two o'clock, a very large part of the Cliffs, at the east end of the beacha tllawaliiistlii, fell r w t i l t ir l N a V n a rar‘ crash, and vi was sadden ly detached, with it 3 or 4 acres of land which had crown ed its summit. Its fall has entirely blocked up the perforated rock, which is admired as a cu riosity. Many Ladies and Gentlemen were ob served passing through the rock during the morn ing, but very fortunately no person was ne ar when the Cliff fell. Large chasms are now to be seen in the Cliff from which the mass separated, and it is therefore expected that more will shortly fall.—(Exeter Mired.) . - ii* 4:1,4,1,7 4 1..• ~.. . • 0.," 2 . • ...*° „,,,, I .' . k (Y . .• -..,..
