o'clock yesterday in the Spitfire Steam Packet from Calais, in the astonishing quick patsage of two hours and a half. His Excellency set off for Sittingbourne, where he intended to sleep. We have the pleasure to add, that this excellent and amiable Prince arrived safe at Chandos House this day at half-past two o'clock. CITY, HALT-PAST ONE o'CLocz. Consols opened this morning at 9-11, and have had a slight advance to WI, with very little bubiness doing either in them or any other public security. We have received the Paris Papers of Monday and the node of Tuesday. They contain no thing of importance; for the article from Trieste is nothing more than a reiteration of the former reports of the Greeks having gained a signal victory at the Pass of Thermopylae. So many rumours of the same fact, coming from diffe rent quarters, particularly when it is considered that profound silence is observed by the Porte respecting its military operations, certainly jus tify a.prelty confident hope that the Turks have actually .encountered a severe check. The ar ticles in these Papers that are worth extracting is ill be found in a preceding column. The heavy depression of the South American 1 Securities, and particularly of those of Mexico and Colombia, which once stood so high iu the Money Markets, together with the unfavourable intelligetice which, as now confessed-by all par ties, begins to arrive from the new transatlantic States, are pretty strong proofs that we have been right in the opinions which we have fur some time past expressed on South American affairs, and in cautioning the British Public against em backing in further risks on their account, until the present crisis shall have passed. It Is al most unnecessary that we should assure our Readers that we are very far from being gratified by these evidences of our own accuracy. There are no more sincereiriends to the cause of South American independence than we are ; and no persou4, thereforcopould rejoice wore at its complete triumph than ourselves. We are, how ever, still• More devoted to the interests and wet fate of our country than to:those of foreign na tiOis; and though it was an ungracious and an unpopular task to resist the public feel ing on this interesting and important subject, yet, having long since obtained informatiop which ,couviuced us that the Spanish American coutust was by uo means so nearly brought to a conelu sion es most persOns imagined, we had no alter ust4ive from the course which we unhesitatingly' adopted,--that of conscientiously, daclering,our sentiments, and solemnly warning the public against the dangerous consequences of the exist ing delusion. Eveu the Morning Chronicle now acknowledges " a great number of Colombians were cut to pieces in attempting to escape from Callao," and that " a seditious movement has taken place in Guayaquil (in Colombia itself), which; however," the Chronicle adds, " was not of great moment, and was suppressed by the energy of the Authorities." Other accouuts state, that the Colombian Congress has found it necessary to take measures for appropriating a• part of the property of the Church to the exigencies .of the State. This, it is to be feared, will soon excite 44 seditious movements" in many other quarters besides Guayaquil ; and besides inspiring the Clergy with alarm and dis affection thronghout the whole of the South American Republics, is at once evidence of the necessities of the Colombian Government, and of the desperate nature of the expedients to which they are forced to have recourse. In Peru, all that the friends of BOLIVAR can say for him is, that he is propariug means for annoying the, Royalists and indeed the very position to which that leader has • retreated, in the North of Peru, seems to prove that he must have experienced some se rious disasters, even although the accounts of his alleged defeats, received through Spain, are ap. pereutly gross exaggerations. It is now again alleged that a Congress of Ambassadors is about to be held at Madrid, on the state of Spain, on the affairs of South America, and on the future destiny of the Balearic Islands. We know not what truth there is in these assertions; but this we do know, that Russia, as we stated about the time of the surrender of Cadiz, had marked out the Belearic Islands as her own, and that the Governments of the Continent desire nothing more earnestly than that the infant spirit of liberty in South America may be strangled. The Embalming the King of the SANDWICH IsLANus took place this morning, at seven o'clock, at the Caledonian Hotel. The ceremony was performed exactly in the same manner as ou the late melancholy occasion of his Royal Consort by Mr. MAconEcoa. and Mr. PERE GRINE, in the presence of the Governor and his Lady, the Admiral, the Treasurer, the three Chiefs, Dr. LpY; and Mr. HILL. THE THEATRES. CovENT.GARDEN.—Last night took place the farewell benefit of Miss BEAUMONT, an actress whose person and talents rendered her one of the favourites of the public, and whose private worth is held in high esteem by numerous friends. She possessed a musical taste and a good voice, and both were manifest in her manner of singing 'weet Rome, in Clare, on the same night after Miss Tam The dramatic pieces on this occa sion were The Comedy of Errors, The Irish Widow, and Ella Rosenberg. In the first piece - Miss BEAUMONT performed the part of Luctuna with her usual unaffected simplicity. A great variety of airs were introduced and much applauded. In the second piece a Mrs. MILLE►t appeared for the second time in the IVidow Brady with so much success as to deserve a permanent connexion with the Theatre. In the last piece Miss LACY, now one of the mo►t judicious and impressive actresses on the London Boards, reu dered Ella Rosenberg deeply affecting. We have only to add, we doubt not that Miss BEAU MONT, iu the new engagement which she is about to form, will act the part of a Wife with all the requisite qualities, and ensure through life the full benefit of connubial felicity. lIAYMARICET.—The" interesting little Opera of Rostua again brought forward the young lady who had personated the character ou Saturday. She has a powerful voice, and possesses musical knowledge, but is too much In the decorative style of the day. We are surprised to see the manner in which Rosina is usually dressed on the Stage". A Gleaner in the Field appears in silks, and with every appearance of f►►shionable attire. Nothing can be more absurd, yet nothing is more common. It would be well with poor Dorcas if she could afford so much finery to her proteg;4. The second Piece was Sweethearts and Wives, in which an apology was made for the appearance of Mrs.l'. Him, in the part of Eugenia, ou ac count of the indisposition of Miss CtIeSTKII. The last Piece was Two Strings to your Row, ren dered highly amusing by lAsToN's Lazarillo. A good house. ENGLISH OPILUA liousE.—At this Theatre, ono of our best Comic Operas, Love in a Village, had last night a powerful support of musical talents.-- BRAIIIM was 11m thorn, PIIILIAPS Young Mea dows, and Miss HARTZT Rosetta. It had also the support of good acting in BARLEY'S Justice Woodcock, RAYSIBIL'S Hodge, and th© admirable Madge of Miss KRI,LT. Au Opera so amusing in itself, aad so well supported by the Per formers iu general, will probably be very atttac tive. Yesterday afternoon, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council assembled at the Foreign. Office, Down ing -street. Among the Ministers present wore, the Loan CNA/ICI:LA.OR, the Earls of Liverpool, Westmorland, and Bathurst ; Mr. Secretary Peel, Mr. Secretary Canning, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Viscounts Melville and Siclmoutli, Lord Bexley, and Mr. Wynn. The Cabinet did not break up till a quarter past five o'clock. Prince LroeoLn left Marlborough House yes terday morning, soon after eleven o'clock, for Claremont. The last arrivals from Bucki►►ghamshire state bat Mr. WiLusuros.cu is better. The Marquis of LaNsuowsr has subscribed 501. for the relief of the poor of Kilittegad,couuty Dublin. We have received Colombia Garottes to the Ott' of May, and though the most important articles of intelligence which they bring have been anti cipated by private letters, we find them not without interest. They contain the daily pro ceedings of the Legislative Bodies, the Chamber of Representatives,—and the Senate, at no great length,it is true,but still with distiuctness,aud par ticularly sufficient to convey to the body of the people a proper idea of what the rulers are doing. A petition had been presented on the 23d April by an Englishman, praying for the exclusive pri vilege of establishing steam-boats ou the lake of Maracaibo. The fate of this application is not stated. It would appear from a statement published in the paper of the 2d of May, that the Senators and Representatives cost Colombia from the ed February to the final establishment of their re spective Chambers, only 11,8G8 dollars, or a sum not so large as many of our single sinecures. We copy the following from the If r ostein Lu minary of the 11th : " The Duke of Marlborough packet, which arrived yester day afternoon at Falmouth, to nine days from Lisbon, brings an account that it had been arranged that the Queen's desti nation should be Parma ; but this she had refused to comply with, because she had not been tried : this, however, it is sup posed, will avail her little. The packet left at Lisbon his Al tt jesty's ships the Windsor Castle, Genoa, Lively, and Print. rose, with the French sloop of war the Lynx." The Rev. Mr. A tirm, the Chaplain of the Colony of Demerara, appears to have been really suspended by the Governor. The following is an extract of a letter, received yesterday morn- iug :--- " DEmEn.AnA, JUNE 4,11.1•24.—0 e the P e titi on of t h e In habitants, the Clovernor Was pleased to forbid the llev.

About one o'clock in the - afternoon, Enfield, Waltham Cross,Cheshunt, and their vicinity, felt the severest. It was accompanied with lightning, thunder, and torrents of hail. The devastation occasioned by the latter was very great, some of the stones being th© dimensions of a pigeon's egg. he grounds of 11. Meux, Esq. of Theobald's, suffered considerably ; nearly 100 panes of glass were destroyed. Two ducks were killed by the lightning, and a sawyer was knocked down by the electric fluid having entered his hand, which it severely lacerated, and then p assed off through the saw into the earth, without doing further mischief. Several panes of glass were broken at the Great Bull's Cross.—ln the evening the me tropolis was visited by a severe storm, accompa nied by terrific and continual flashes of lightning, and tremendous peals of thunder, which lasted nearly two hours, and we fear must have occa sioned considerable damage. On Tuesday the village of Cold Ashton was visited by a ter. rific storm of thunder, rain, and hail, which lasted upwards of a quarter of an hour. Great damage was done by it to the hay and young wheat in the neighbourhood...4.MM Journal.)

MACQUAIIIR.—The late Major-General Macquarie entered the service, as an Ensign, on the 9th of April, 1777, in the 84th Regiment of Foot.

A letter received yesterday from St. Helena mentions that the late hurricane, which had been experienced with such desolating consequences in the Mauritius, had extended a considerable distance to the eastward ; and fears were enter tained that the accounts would prove severe losses to have taken place iu that quarter. The post of Ambassador from Spain to this country, which has been for a long time vacant, has been filled up by the arrival of Don Francisco de Zea Bermudez in that character. This gentle man's last employment by his Government was the embassy to Constantinople, at which city he was the successor of Admiral Jab a t. M. B er mud e z was originally appointed for the mission to Petersburgh, and was ou his way to the Rus sian capital when he received orders to take up his residence as Minister at London. His arrivel was whelly unexpected by the members of the Spanish legation, who had not received any previous intimation of his appointment. The sole cause why his functions have been so long left vacant has been the pov erty of the Spanish Court, pay the first year's advance,saolaulryt,hllViio‘vere u w t i l t a i b io l u e t t ‘ o vhich no one would accept the appointment to a country where the scale of living is so expensive among p erson s of rank.--( Times.)

POETRY. THE MOSS ROSE. [From the German of Knuat max LIE R.l Erewhile, in Orient's sunny clime When earth-born things were yet in prime, Nor guilt the golden bands had riven That linked in peace the earth to heaven,— The Angel-Sprite, whose bounded powers Are given to tend the tribes of Flowers,— Each leaf at eve with balm bedewing, At morn each faded charm renewing,— One noon, on Spring's tirst petals laid, Had touched him in a Rose-tree's shade. Refreshed anon he raised his head. And smiling to the Rose-tree said : " My loveliest child, my darling Rose ! Accept the thanks thy father owes ; Thanks for thy fragrance freely shed From ruby cup around my head,— Thanks for thy cool reviving shade, While slumbering in thy shelter laid ! O ask l—whate'er the boon—'tis thine; The joy to grant the boon be mine."— " Then o'er my form new beauties shed"— At once the Rose tree's spirit said. And lo! ere scarce the words have birth, Froth fragrant wreaths slow-struggling forth, The loveliest Flower with Moss is braided— The humblest weed her branches shaded Vet, Lima! hadst thou marked, when there The lowly weed enrobed the Fair, What nameless charms—what graces new Its chastened lustre round her threw,— While, all around, the Flowers were area Do homage to the Rose's Queen : 0 ! thou'dst have doff'd that robe of pride, Those sparkling gems have cast aside, And simply decked' as Nature bade, Scorned Fashion's—worse than useless—aid !

(From the Annals of Sporting and Fancy Coaette. ) The months of May and June are highly interesting to the sportsman, particularly to the shooter ; not, however, on CC. count of any active employment they may afford him, but inas. much as his future hopes materially depend on the kind of weather that occurs during this period. Grouse are, in a great degree, an exception ; as the breeding system f or t h ese bi r ds may be calculated a month gather at least than that for either the partridge or pheasant. Grouse, also, from their nature, as well as from the circumstance of their nests being formed among almost impenetrable heath or ling, are less liable to be Influenced by the weather, and cannot fail to be abundant. In regard to partridges and pheasants, which a r e more ge n e rally spread over the face of the country than grouse, it has been re peatedly observed, in our Annals, that the welfare of the rising progeny of these birds principally depends on the state of the weather during the months of May and June. This period cannot be too dry for the breeding of these birds, however un propitious such a state may be to the hopes of the huabandmen. On the 12th of June, the writer saw a covey of eleven young patridges in Altcar, in Lancashire, the property of the Earl of Sefton . ; and these little birds were able to raise themselves on the wing, and continue a flight of n few score yards. In the same neighbourhood, lie observed several pheasants' nests on the same day, which were deserted ; the birds had evidently hatch ed ; egg-shells remaining in the nest, but not n single addle egg. From extensive observations, we are induced to suppose that the hatching of birds in general took place rather sooner this season than usual ; young rooks were ready to fly at an early period ; and a titmouse, and also a throstle, which haVe for years formed their nests in the writer's garden, produced their young unusually early. The swallow tribe appears less numerous than usual. The wheat crops, and corn in general, never looked more promising. Angling may be now enjoyed in all its varieties. All kinds of fresh water Ash will feed this month ; but barbel, roach, dace, jack, pike, and perch. being not yet fully recovered front spawning, which always leaves them in a lean and languid state, are alike unfit for the table and in different to the baits offered by the angler, especially dur. mg the heat of mid-day ; those, therefore, who wish to pursue this sport should angle for them in the morning and evening. Trout are still in excellent condition, and the fly-fishermen in July has it all his own way : with choice flies, and occasionally using the spinning bait, he may expect to bag numerous and heavy trout. The . young angler, for the sake of practice, or such as are satisfied with the small fry, may rake for gudgeons anti whip for dace and bleak, and expect plenty of sport during the remaining summer months. If July prove dry and the waters become low, let those who delight in wiggling get their tackle in order, anti by using it skilfully, they will kill some very large fine eels; July, generally speak ing, being the most favourable for this sport.

Joll7l Robinson, a soldier belonging to the 3d. Dragoons, was put to the bar on an indictment charging him with stealing, in the Barracks at Hounslow, in the dwelling-house of our Sove reign Lord the King, a 51. note, belonging to James Down, one of the Medical Officers be longing►: to the regiT►ent. The prosecutor stated, that the prisoner lived as servant to him. On the ►9th of May the wit ness put into his writiug•desk three 5/. notes. Oa the 10th of May he missed one of them. Some days after he found that the prisoner had changed the identical note with a victualler named Lester, at Hounslow. Elizabeth Hunt swore to seeing the prisoner open the desk, after trying a great many keys, and taking out the notes. John Lester, victualler, of Hounslow, proved changing the note produced for the prisoner or a sergeant, but he could not say which, as , be had mixed them with others. Mr. Dawn subsequently called to inquire about the note, and produced a paper with numbers on it, and on seelk!g the note identified it. The note was produced and sworn to by Mr. Dawn. The prisoner, in his defence, declared his inno cence, and said Mr. Dawn had given him the note to change. lie asked Mr. 1). as to his for mer character, and that gentleman said he be. Hewed it was very good. Mr. Justice Botuouua summed up the -e - deuce to the Jury, who found the prisoner Not Guilty. OLD BAILEY, NEW COURT. ARAUU4 presided fur the Recorder in this Court.
