The Ex*hange 25. 20. We recommend to the no ent iOn of the Elective Body throughout the United Empire, but parti cularly the Citizens of this great Metropolis, the Letter signed TENAX, in. THE Z..;LTN of this day., It comprises Some attnirable hints for a due se lection of such Members of Parliament as may substantially represent, and faithfully support, the true interests of the Country. There has been a great clamour among the followers of Party, and the tools of Faction, for a Reform in Parliament. The only rational, safe, and prac ticable Reform must depend on the Electors them selves, for the Constitution admits of no improve ment. It has been confirmed, ratified, and esta 7 !dished by the solid test of experience. Let the Electors act from honest principles,' and a proper sense of duty to themselves, as!well as to their coun try, and no other Parliamentary Reform will be_ wanted, foOhen none but men of wisdom and inte grity wili.be chosen, and no laws will be passed hut what may be found essential to the due support Of the honour and prosperity of the Empire.— It is not front any 'personal knowledge of Sir WILLIAM CuRTIS that we heartily wish he may again be one of the Representatives of the Capital of the World, but because we consider him as an upright, independent, and intelligent man—a man whose. fortune raises him above the necessity of servile subt»isilon to Ministers—a man who has opposed them on many important occasions, anti who, while he was always accessible to his ii ti Constituetfti, and attentive to the in- terests of the City which he represented, properly considered himself as one of the Guardians of his Country. The present Loan MAYOR is another fit Representative of the City, and the, late LORD MAYOR, who has been 'the object of unmerited obloquy, while he was deserv.; ing of the approbation of his Country for his 'zeal, intrepidity, end public spirit, is another, who, if he were to offer himself, ought to be returned again. He was censured and ridi culed for the dangers which he announced; but nothing could induce or provoke him to make an imprudent disclosure of his knowledge of im portant facts, and the recent happily discovered plot is a proof of his knowledge anti discretion. — Mr. WILSON is worthy to.be united with the three whoM we have mentioned. He deserves the con fidence of his felloW'Citizens, and i; above pecu niary temptation. These then are the four men who would do honour to 'the City, and glad should we be to see the whole of them entrusted with the defence of its rights, privileges, and in terests, persuaded as we are that they would hold forth a proper example to the Representative Body through Out the Empire. • We stopped the Press yesterday, to give, in a Second Edition, the ROYAL SrEECEI addressed to both notisel of Parliament, which was read yes terday by the Loup CIiNCELLOR in the House of Lords. We have re-inserted it this day, in the regular Report of Parliamentary Proceedings. The Dissolution of Parliament will he announced this day, but to avoid any suspicion of partiality, the Writs will not he issued till to•morrow, that they may all at once be distributed over the Country. MS MAJESTY having appointed yesterday for the purpose of receiving the Addresses from the Court of Aldermen and from the Court of Common Coonsil, by deputations, those Courts were held for the purpose of appointing the same, when the Members present of the Court of Aldermen were deputed to proceed with their Address. A motion was made in th,.. Court of Common Council, that Mr. Sheriff PARKINS should be allowed to take a seat on the Bench with the Aldermen, which was negatived. - It was then resolved, on, a divi , ion, to a; pint a deputation of oue Member froth each Ward to present their Address. The num betS were, .54 in favour of the Vesolution, and 45 against it. LORD COCHRANE. fnlin►ving Letter trout ark Officer helotiking to his Mjesty'S ship Owen Glend , mer, which' reached Rio Janiero fron► Madeira ii► the extra ordinary short space of thirty days, contains some intere,ting partictliais tespectitig Loid C.oco- BANE t-- " H. M.S. Owen Glendower, Rio Janeiro, Dec \ 22, 1819• " I little thought to have this day the pleasure of writing to you from Rio 3aneisin ; but our passne has lrett astonish ingly short, having ran from Madeira hither in thirty days, Which makes an avi:rage of one hundred and ninety-three miles per diem. SirThos.Hardy sailed with theVengenv and Hyperion about a fortnight since. We End orders here to proceed with all possible speed to Monte Video, on arrival of the :January packet. We learn a great . deal here respecting Lord Coch- rani. Many of the reports current in England are very false, especially that of his making so mulch prite•muney. You _may safely assert that he has not made on?-fourth of the sum so lil•crally awarded to him in some of the English Papers. He gives very great encouragement to British sailors, but has acted ext.; cuiely honourable in many instances, when deserters have :joined his Beet, always sending them hack, and taking proper opportunities to send the names of those who have entered. He has got five pa , sed Midshipmen, and wishes for more; of course 'they get Lieu- When Lord tun:Ants' commissions in the Chilian service. Cochrane was last seen, he was peeparing to attack the squad ron at Lima, and it is generally believed be hag succeeded be.: fore now. He is provided with every kind of offensive wea pon used in the British service, particularly the Congreve rackets; and Lord Cochrane says, it is to their destructive effects he is indebted for snecess in nrOst of his:attempts among the Spanish vessels. Ills Lordship acts very wisely in keeping up so good an understanding with the British fleet; it is the best proof he has ever shown of his discretion. Ilis Lordship said to a Gentleman (with whom I have just been conversing), that he was sorry he ever had a seat in Partia went, for this reason, that lie was afraid he had done no good there. This is a very candid acknowledgment Irian the Noble Lord, and, I believe, a very tine one." SHIP NEWS. FALMOUTH, FEB• 2G.—Arrived the Margaret, Glen, .from Patross, in:so days.—Sailed the Duke of York packet, with . mails for Lisbon and the Islands.—The sloop Aid, West, put into Helloed, in distress, having been blown out of St. Mi chael's the I tth ult. with loss of anchors asoj cables. and only a part of her cargo on board, which is damaged. The crew were greatly fatigued, and were supplied with water and pro visions on the edge of the Channel by the Agnes;Leary, from Liverpool to Jamaica. RAMSGATE, FEB. 211.—An anchor, iron stock, weighing about 41 cwt., with about 70 fathoms of nine-inch cable, has been picked up and brought in here—supposed to belong to the Nancy, Liston, of Chichester.

ENGLISH OPERA House.—Mr. NlATuews last night opened a new Budget ot ,Whim, Wit, Hu mour, and Character. The whole -cotsisted of Songs, Imitations, Tales, Incidents, ludicrous descriptions and Narratives, which might be deemed an incredible exertion of an individual Performer; There were no staie repeitions, but a cast abundance of original matter, various and rich in Composition, and most admirably brouglit into action. The entertainment altogether folly equalled, we may indeed say it exceeded his two former miscellanies of the same kind, and by the unanimous and very heart); op pfause which it received from a crolvded audience, it promises to be equally attractive and prosperous. Naw ARGYLL Rooart4.—These Rooms, which have been raised by a .hod of the most distin guished Musical Performers in the cotintry, were opened for the first time last night,, with a Grand Concert of Vocal and Instrurriewai Mosi..:7. The Concert Room seems to br tore of time very best 'in the Metropolis for sound. Every thing was heard with the utmost correctness. It is well formed in point of architectural .preporion. It ,is 'lofty and spaciOns. The decorations are simple, but we understand that gre;ter, ai r tendon to ornamental elegance is intend ed. Time svhole snit of Rooms are well adapted foe convenience, refreshment, change of air, &c. &c. during time intervals of the Performances. — The Orchestra. was filled with a nemeroos Band of first-rate instrumental Performers, and the selection was. as judicious as 'sight be expected under the skilful and experienced Conductors of the Institntion. AIRA'HAM, VAUGHAN( WELCH, 'HAWEs, S AL E, M ; s, MON, Miss STEPHENS, Miss MAYES, and .Sig- Jmora-CORRI, constituted the Vocal Band. We have not room to particularize the performance , , but we must say that the whole .was an admir able treat, anti promises a new and valuable soiirce of rational and refined amusement for the Metropolis, calculated at once to gratify the pass ing hour, and eminently to contribute to the im provement of public taste. l'i'e observed Niatbito nana among the auditors aunt the appearance of this celebrated ornament of the ntu , ical excited general attention. If her voice should. be as little altered by time as her exterior, she will be a prodigy in taste, science, and expression The it is said, will leave town in a few days for the Qttectt's•Lodge, at Windsor, for the change of Air, and a suit of rooms are fitting up there for bia M AJESTVS reception.

The appear ance of the tniiiusiy, and the seizure' of such a number of individual 3, collected a considerable -crowd. The }hop-keepers closed their shops and for about an hour there was much bustle and confusion in the street. The, military guard,' itr returning to the Barracks, were followed by 3: crowd of disorderly 'persons, and assailed with stones. We are glad to understand, however, that .four of the most' active in the molt were laid hold 'ot, and are now in custody ; and that a precogni tion is going on with a view to their, trial for this daring offence.
