A3l Tux HAGUE, PEE. 17. -A letter from Tangier, of the 10th of January, states that in consequence of an applies. tion made by the Consul of the Netherlands, the Emper:.r of Morocco has granted an asylum in his ports to the Netherlands ships against the French and English cruisers ; and also that ships which have to perform eight or four t •en days' quarantine may henceforth remain for that pur p se in his ports, instead of being sent, as formerly, to the hay of Gibraltar. An account from Breda says, " The report which has been spread, that the granting of furloughs would soon cease, is confirm d from all quarters. The time that those already granted are to cease seems not to be fixed. Should they continue to the middle of March, their ceasing would be nothing extraordinary, because, on the let of April, a!I the men must be with their corps previous to the usual , rinual inspection, which precedes the going of the troops into camp. It is thought probable that when the inspec tion is over, furloughs will be again granted, unless some unexpected event should prevent it." (From the r A ep t , i , t: t t e e d rd h w e n re Courant.) FEE. 18. d ays ago, that the amount of the levying of a toll on the Scheldt was un founded, or, at least, that the measures adopted, or in tended to be adopted, were not carried into effect. This seems to be confirmed by the Belgian papers, from which it appears that no ship has yet paid toll, and it is supposed that the ordinance win revoked. It is possible, however, that the decree said to have been issued is a mere fable. FEB. 19.—1 n the sitting of the second Chamber of rho States General to-day, the Central Section made its report on the proposed alterations in the seventeenth chapter of the second book or the Civil Code. The day for the discus sion is not fixed ; the Minister of Justice being prevented, by a slight indisposition, from coming to the Chamber. The sixteenth anniversary of the birthday of his Royal Highness, the eldest son of the Prince of Orange, was ce lebrated here as usual. (No. 12,022.) LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING. FEBRUARY 22, 1833.

COVENT GARDEN THEATRE. Last night, at this theatre, Mr. CHARLES KEAN made his first appearance before an English audience since his sojourn in the United States. Since he crossed the Atlantic he appears to have studied his profession with great assiduity, and has cor rected many of the more glaring manners which marred his acting. He selected the character of Sir Edward Mortimer, in the play of the Iron. Chest, as the past in which he was to make his re-appearance; but we think he might have chosen better, for in its representation he lat;ours under several disadvantages, the most prominent of which is that his voice and figure seem too youthful for the character. He has improved considerably both in person and in manner. His voice in the declamatory passages is rich, and capable of the most powerful effects; but when it sinks down into conversational dialogue it is tame and void of expression. When energy is required nothing can be more effective than the manner in which he spoke ; it frequently possessed all the :grandeur of his father's best efforts. The soliloquy in the first act was delivered with a clear and harmonious intonation. The gradations of sound were well managed, and the fall of the voice came pleasingly on the ear. The finest part of the play was the delivery of the oath ; there each word found its proper expression. He treads the stage with a more firm and decisive step, and seems far more at home to its general business than he was when he last per formed on the London boards. In the trial scene, in the last act, his by-play was exceedingly good, and several parts of his performance towards the close were given with an excellent perception of the character. He was very flatteringly re ceived. Wilford was played for the first time by Mr. VINING; his acting received frequent applause. Rawbold was perso nated by Mr. WARDE. Mrs. KEELY played Blanch, and MS' E. Roam& performed the part of Barbara, The usual weekly meeting of the Council took place on Tues. day evening last; the rooms were crowded to excess, and con siderable interest seemed to be excited. In taking the chair, G. F. MUNTZ, Esq., said he had just returned from London, where he had been during the past week. He was exceedingly sorry to say, that from all the information which he could elicit from well-informed individuals, his opinion was, that no mea sure calculated in the least degree to restore the prosperity of the country would be introduced by the Ministry, unless compelled by the loud and universal voice of the people from one extremity of the kingdom to the other.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") Mr. De B. ATTWOOD brought up the report of a Com mittee appointed to recommend what measures it would be proper to take on the subject of the King's speech. The Com_ mittee recommended that a public meeting of the inhabitants should be held as speedily as possible, to give them an op portunity of expressing their sentiments upon the conduct of Ministers.—(Cheers.) Mr. Attwood. said that the sole object for which the people had exerted themselves to pass the Reform Bill, was that they might have an acknowledgment of, and remedy for, their great distresses.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") What, then, must have been their surprise and indig nation when they found that in meeting the Reformed House of Commons, Ministers had never once hinted at the subject, and seemed totally to have forgotten the principles which placed them in their present situation ?—(Hear, hear.) Every thing which had been said on the Ministerial side of the House concurred to make him believe that the people had been sold and betrayed.—(Cheers.) He trusted the House of Commons would fearlessly do its duty, but he confessed he looked chiefly to the people, whom it now became more than ever to speak out in right earnest.—(Loud and long applause.) Mr. Attwood concluded by reading a series of resolutions, and also a petition grounded upon them, complaining of the deep disappointment the people had experienced, and praying that an immediate remedy might be applied to their great distresses. _ After a few observations from other members of the Council, it was agreed to submit these resolutions and petitions to a public meeting. The Rev. T. M. M`DONNELL next brought, forward a petition against the Bill introduced by Earl Grey for suspend_ ing the Constitution in Ireland. This gentleman addressed the Council at some length, amid much applause, on the nature of the Bill in question, which he denounced in the strongest terms. By its introduction he conceived Earl Grey had lost the confidence of the people. His name, instead of going down to posterity with the benefactors of the human race, would be associated with the Caligulas, the Pitts, and Castle reaghs.—(Loud cheers.) In the Bill now before the Lords he had contrived to extract all the virus of former Acts of coer cion towards Ireland, and concentrated them in one focus. Mr. M`Donnell said he would warn Ministers of the dreadful consequences likely to ensue from the passing of this tyrannical Bill.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. M`Donnell concluded by moving that the petition he had read should be submitted to the public meeting. Mr. SALT seconded the resolution in a forcible speech. If Lord Grey's Bill were carried into a law, he trembled for the consequences. If the people of England did not instantly rise up and petition against this infamous measure they would be contaminated by it.—(Vehement cheering,) Mr. EI)MONDS next addressed the council with conside rable effect, commenting upon various portions of Earl Grey's speech, which he considered a declaration of war against the people.— ( C h eers.) The motion of Mr. M`Donnell having been acceded to, Mr. GILES read a petition for the immediate and total repeal of all taxes on knowledge, which he proposed should also be submitted to the public meeting. Mr. G. WRIGHT seconded the motion. Resolutions agreed to. It was then determined to hold a public meeting of the inha bitants at Beardsworth's repository on Monday next. We are informed that Wolverhampton will hold a meeting for the same purpose next week. -- --- MR. ROEBUCK AND THE TIMES. As we copied yesterday afternoon the morning accoun' in the Times of the Mechanics' Institute proceedings, we deem ourselves bound to insert the subjoined letter, with the Times' comment upon it. We will only observe that we think both accounts may be to a consicierahle extent correct. We have only to suppose that the Times re porter was upon the watch for hisses, whilst Mr. Roebuck was rather looking for cheers : Sir,--The report in your paper of today containing an ac count of the proceedings that took place yesterday at the Me chanics' Institute has given me great pain, since it states (most erroneously) that I disturbed the harmony of the meeting by introducing political topics into the very few observations I made. I have therefore taken the liberty of describing what actually did take place, and hope that you will be good enough to publish my account of the matter. I was requested on coming into the institution to move a resolution and say a few words thereon. Had not this request been made by a friend who had previously been solicited, and who felt the task somewhat irksome, I should not have acceded to it, as I am not accustomed to the formal and conventional modes of expression requisite on such occasions. On rising to move the resolution I was somewhat startled at finding that the mention of my nameproduced an instantaneous and prolonged burst of approbation. Iso seldom appear in Public that I could hardly believe that any feelings, whether of approbation or otherwise, could be attached to my name. It was plain, nevertheless, that a very strong feeling, I know not how or wherefore, was connected with it. My mind, I acknowledge, is occupied with politics, and chiefly with the means of instituting national education. When, therefore, I was called on to speak in a place dedicated to po. pular instruction, it was not wonderful that I should connect with the matter in hand some allusion to the education of the people by the Government. While commenting on this matter I lamented the present confined notions entertained on the subject of the ends or objects of Government. I stated that very few persons now considered the general instruction of the people to be legitimately included within those views, and I therefore warned the people that they must ex pect no assistance in this great business from any but them. selves, and that, consequently, their efforts must not be relaxed. I also observed that I could say, from my expe rience in other places, that the views entertained of the busi ness of Government were not of so enlarged and extensive a character as to include the great, the all-important object of public education; that, unfortunately, those views were con. fined to a few narrow and partial objects. At this moment there was very loud and very general applause, mixed with a hiss from one or two persons, who evidently had mistaken the purport of my observation. Any one who has ever been in an assembly met to hear others talk must know the conse. quence of disapprobation expressed by a very small minority. Rounds of cheers followed, to drown the slight mark of dis. approbation. Silence, however, was restored in a moment, and I remarked that some misapprehension lid occurred. Some persons had fancied, I said, that I was about to introduce subjects immediately political. and to snake allu. sions connected with subjects of pchtical discussion. I begged them to believe that such was not my intention; that I most sincerely deprecated ar.y wish to introduce matters that might produce any difference of opinion in a place like the present, where nothing but the most kindly feelings ought to rise or be entertainer. I stated that my only object was to direct attention to the fact that the business of national edu cation was really a national concern, but was not so considered; and, when so doing, I could not but lament that institutions like the present should not receive the fostering aid of Go vernnient ; that they should be forced to make their way through storms and difficulties and dangers ; that they should have to conquer the many obstacles lying in the way of all private endeavours. I need not follow further the observations I made. Let me, however, observe, that no other mark of any ut difference of opini on f o ll owe d ; t h at the one that had occurred was b the general, e ar l eariarl andfaued single conti n mom a e pi nt ,r ; obon a a n ti d that foll t o h wi the same same very loud,the close that had attended the commencement of my remarks. I do not generally care about what may be said of me in the public prints. The subject of education, however, is one so deeply interesting to me, the kind and good feelings that ought to be felt towards each other by all persons who strive to pro mote it I deem of such vital import, that I could not let a report go uncontradicted which might induce any one to believe that I was careless or rash enough willingly to produce the least possible difference among those met to celebrate one of the most cheering events connected with this great subject. I have to apologise for the length of my note, and to beg you to believe me, Your obedient servant, 15, Gray's Inn Square, J. A. ROEBUCK. Feb. 21. *** The ;eporter to whom the aforegoing letter, with its private postscript, has been referred (for there can be no communication between us and Mr. Roebuck, which cannot be shown to a gentleman in whom we confide) states, that " he contents himself with asserting posi tively, in direct contradiction to Mr. Roebuck, that the report conveys a perfectly just impression of what occurred with reference to Mr. Roebuck, the expressions attri buted to whom were used by him ; that, in pity to Mr. Roebuck, be abstains from commenting upon his letter (though the misstatement in the private postscript would warrant a severe comment), leaving the office of criticising it to those who were present." RIVAL ORATORS.--Mr. Fox used to say, I never want a word, but PITT never wants the wort.' This story occurs in many memoirs of the times....-I{lur• ray's Byron, V o l. xi V. (From the Dublin Morning Register of Wednesday.) Yesterday there was a meeting of the members of the Volunteer Society, held at the Corn Exchange. JOHN GANNON, Esq., in the chair. Mr. J. S. CLOSE had been requested by the Committee to lay before the body certain resolutions which they had approved of, and which be hoped would a‘so meet the ap probation of the entire assembly around him. To the rights—to the full freedom and independence of that country he was firmly and for ever devoted, eve❑ as the modern phrase went, to the death."—(Cheers.) They should remember that at such a mcment the ordinary phraseology of declamation, however appropriate, was nut altogether free of the danger of being misunderstood by those they should least wish to deceive.--jlear, hear. ) Words were now to become things, and thr.t which they would not embody in action,/ or did not wish to urge others to commit, should be left unsaid.--( Hear, hear.) What was the first thought that now pervaded his mind, and that of every man who respected his rights as a human being, and his privileges as a British subject? 'Why, the maddening sense of slavery—that he and they stood there as slaves—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear")—slaves, tle ptived of the protection of those laws and that Con stitution to which alone they owed allegiance.—(Cheers. ) The Bill proposed by Elrl Grey bad been aptly styled by the Morning Register, a❑ " Infernal Statute ;" he hoped it would never lose a title so appropriate.—(Hear, hear.) (Here the Learned Gentleman adverted to the principal provisions of the Bill, and proceeded.) There was one point which marked a demoniac spirit of torture—it was that section of the Bill which enabled the officials em ployed to inflict it on the Irish people—to arrest on the slightest grounds any individu d, and to make himself the gaoler of his victim.—( Hear, hear.) Was tbe contempla tion of such outrages as were thus impending to be tamely ensured—was it in human nature to submit to them (Cries of " No, no.") lie would pass from the considera tion of the provisions of the Bill to inquire who were the men to Le intrusted with its enforcement—these were the military and the magistracy. Of the character of the English army generally he would say nothing in com mendation or dispraise; but, of the fitness of its officers to administer justice or law in Ireland, he would assert that, as a body, they were utterly incompetent. They were nearly all alien in habits, feelings, station, and evtn in country, to the people of Ireland.—(Hear, hear, hear.) Why was it, if murders committed escaped punishment through intimidation or corruption of jurors, and that this was to justify this infernal statute—why was it delayed so long after the homicides at Newtownbarry and Carrick shock? Were the lives of the peaceful people nothing, and the impunity of their oppressors everything in the eyes of Government ?—( Hear, hear.) English force, and the regard which every man should feel for life, might prevent the resistance it was his birthright to give to despotism, but he never would be the willing slave of England.—(Loud and repeated cheers.) He concluded by moving the fol lowing resolutions, which were carried by acclamation : Resolved—That we have read with horror and indignation a Bill brought into the House of Lords by Earl Grey, on Friday, the 15th of February, purporting to be an " Act for the effectual suppression of local disturbances and dangerous associations in Ireland," and that we consider the provisions of such Bill to be subversive of our best rights and liberties as British subjects. Resolved—That this audacious and execrable violation of that Constitution and those laws by which our freedom, our lives, and our properties, are protected, has been attempted without any justification or sufficient pretext whatsoever, but is founded upon information derived from sources undeserving of credit, and actuated in general by selfish and corrupt motives. Resolved—That we being well acquainted with the condi tion of this country, and the wants and true interests of our countrymen, do firmly assert our opinion that all or any por tion of the coercive measures devised and promulgated in the proposed Bill are totally unnecessary for the preservation of the peace of the country, and the due administration of justice ; and, on the contrary, that we deem the total repeal or mitiga. tion of several Acts now in force against the people, and the speedy enactment of extensive measures of relief and redress of grievances, essential to the security of the subject, and the establishment of social order. Resolved—That it is our deliberate and solemn opinion that the proposed Bill, if passed into law, will for ever destroy the confidence of the Irish people in British legislation, and en danger the safety of the British empire. Resolved—That we do, therefore, immediately present an humble petition to the King, r,spectfully representing these, the sentiments of his people, and earnestly imploring bins to avert from this country and his entire realm, consequences so disastrous to the best interests of both. Resolved—That we do also present a petition of similar pur port to the House of Commons. Resolved—That we prepare an address to the people of Eng land, earnestly entreating them, as they value the liberty every freeman desires—as they respect the common rights of civi. lized man, and the common interests of their fellow-subjects, and as they would manifest their gratitude for the aid we gave them in procuring for them the blessings of Reform—to use every legal and constitutional effort in their power to prevent the adoption of a law so disgraceful to humanity, and so fraught with danger to our mutual welfare, independence, and freedom. Resolved—That it is our duty to implore of the Irish people to avoid every violation of the law, as it is their commission of outrage that can alone afford a pretext for laws designed to sub vert their liberties, and endanger their lives. Resolved—That we call upon the people forthwith to pre pare and forward from their respective counties, cities, towns, and parishes, throughout the entire country petitions to Parlia ment, demanding the abandonment of the threatened measures of coercion. Mr. BARRETT-The situation of Ireland is not such as to warrant the demand of increased posters. There is no case made out for the exercise of extraordinary force. I do not mean to say that there is no crime, no insubordina tion, no discont, nt in Ireland—there are all these. Crime and discontent in Ireland have always existed coeval with tnisgoverum.nt.—(Cheering.) The Whigs have greatly exaggerated the emergency. There is not a man who knows anything of the country who does not know this. I am willing to hope the Whigs act from misinformation. What force do these Whigs want which they do not al ready possess, or which they have not actually exercised ? The prisons are full—the crown did not fail in a prosecu tion but one, that at Kilkenny, and on that occasion, it is well known the persons tried were not participators in the murder. The police and military were not discomfited but once, at Carrickshock ; on every other occasion if slaughter was rigour, and rigour tranquillity, the country had the full benefit of it. I protest solemnly against the project of the Whigs. The insubordination is exagge rated ; and what exists, proceeds from old misgovern ment, the excitment of the elections, and exasperations of the Whig tithe war. I solemnly protest against the assumption of unconstitutional power demanded. Every one who executes force under such a state of things is a criminal —every victim is a martyr.—(Cheers.) I pro claim from this room—that should such powers be given or exercised--life or property, nay, the very connexion with England itself, which I wish to preserve, will not be worth one year's purchase.—(Great cheering.) We are obliged to postpone the speech of Mr. Gibson, and the remainder of the proceedings till our next. The following gentlemen were admitted members of the Volunteers, on the motion of Mr. E. Power :—Patrick Kirwan, Thurles ; Thomas Burke, Edmund Butler, and Edmund O'Mara, Caher. In our list of the majority against Mr. HUME'S motion on the naval and military sinecures, Mr. ROBERT PALMKR'S name was inserted by :mistake; he was not present at the division. EXPEDITION IN SEARCH OF CAPTAIN Ross.—The expedition in search of Captain Ross sailed on Sunday, in the Hibernia, Captain MAXWELL, for New York. Captain BACK, the Commander, arrived in Liver pool, on Thursday. The talent, resolution, persever ance , and unequall e d p owers of en durance which he exhibited in Ciptain FRANKLIN'S first expedition, together with his accurate knowledge of the arctic regions of America, qua lify him beyond any other man for the enterprise on which he is about to enter. Whatever may be the result so fir as the primary object of Captain BACK'S expedition is concerned, it cannot fail to extend the boundaries of geo graphical science, and to tedd many new and interesting facts connected with natural history, geology, botany, at d magnetism, to the valuable contributions already furnished to those sciences by the enlightened and intrepid travellirs whose discoveries have reflected so much honour on them selves and on the country that sent them forth. Early on the morning of the 13th inst., a small wheat stack, at Hethersett, Norfolk, the produce of four acres and a half, the property of JEHOSAPHAT POSTLE, Esq., of Colney, was destroyed by fire, the work of an incendiary. Mr. POSTLE had his premises at Colney destroyed by fire last year, and has had insurance boar s banging on his stacks within view of the read, ever since harvest,—. Cambridge Chronicle. We hear that the stay of the Prince of Orange here will probably continue till the beginning of next month, Yesterday a detachment of Grenadiers and Yai;eret marched from this town to join the army. HA ERLEM, FEB. B.—The slight hope which for some time was entertained, that the differences with Belg , utn would take a more satisfactory turn, is not realised, and it is affirmed that the last known note on the part of gng- , land insists on proposals which have already b►en swered on the part of the Netherlands, so that bilt little progress has been made. It eeems that the consequence that may result from a new refu.al are much dwelt upon, and that it is wished to make the Netherlands responsible for 'hem. Oa Saturday great purchases of Dutch Stock were made for English account. To-day there was, also, much Business done.

" Jt ectator. THE CHANCELLOR IN a WATCH-HOUSE. —Among the many incidents which occur in my reminis cences of BROUGHAM in those halcyon days, I may men tion one. A party of us had supped at the rooms of a Dr. "'Amor, the brother of the circumnavigator After supper, as we were crossing the South Bridge, we chanced to be witnesses of a very disgraceful scene—a mob of idle scoundrels (mist of them bakers) beating an unfortunate woman with a brutal ferocity. It was impossible to stand by and not make some attempt towards her deliverance. The tumult, in place of ab sting by our interference, grof frightful. All the watchmen within hail were about our ears in an instant, and, in return for our chivalry, lodgeri us all fast in the watchhcuse. The Chancellor probably never found himself in a position less congenial to his taste and habits ; hut, even here, a mind so avaricious of know ledge was not to be unemployed. Among our associates in this vile prison, which was filled with the refuse of both sexes, an old soldier sat cowering over the embers of a lilt that " taught light to counterfeit a gloom." He had earn .o PI iened it in the American war ; and with this hero our embryo candidate for the Woolsack picked up an acquaint ance, and continued during the whole space of our dur ance, extracting all he could on the favourite theme of his inertial exploits. The names of the several officers under whom he served, the amount of the forces opposed to each other in particular engagements, the scenes of battles, position of the combatants, skill of the manoeuvres, ad vantages, reverses, in short, every thing that was likely or nut likely to come within the veteran's ken, was asked anti responded to. So passed our night, until it pleased Au rora to leave her saffron couch, when, through Baouc HAM'S interference, we were set at large by a sort of general gaol delivery, by an order from the police Magistraie, on the condition that, if required, we should be ready to make our appearance at the Sessions—a condition which, as we had been guilty of neither blood nor battery, wes not likely very seriously to damp the joy of our liberation.-- Sir Brooke Faulkner's Visit to Germany. r• A MADMAN'S FROLlC.—iutss KELLY, ill her " Dramatic Recollections," relates with great effect a story that Mrs. MATTOCKS, the actress, told her. She went to Bedlam with some friends, and the keeper, point ing to one cell which they had seen, said, " Here's one in here who is perfectly quiet so long as you don't contradict him—mind, I say if you don't contradict him." Accor dingly they entered the cell, and saw a pale-faced melan choly man, with dark eyes, which bad a penetratin 4 bright ness peculiar to madmen. He was in deep thought as they entered. The party having satisfied their curiosity, were about retiring, " when (said Mrs. MATTOCKS) he seized me by the wrist, shutting the door, and placing his back against it, held me in his firm grasp. Well, young wo man (said be), you're in a comical situation here, shut in with a madman.' 1 said, ' Sir ?" But you needn't be alarmed—you are perfectly safe ; they told you I was harmless, didn't they ? You needn't answer. Are you fond of drawing ?-1 know you are. What is this?' he concluded, holding up a paper. 'A ship,' said I. A ship is it ?—you call my tree a ship, do you?' Yes, ves,' said I, it is a ship.' Oh ; and pray what is this?' Obliged to say something, and not knowing what lie mought it was, I answered, ' A house,' which it was. A house, eh ! So you call my coach and four a house, do you?' So saying, he pulled a clasp knife from his pocket, and, opening it with his teeth, at the same moment swinging me round the cell with his huge arm, said, Now, is it a house or not?" It is, it is.' Then I'll tell you what it is then—this is a dolphin.' Then, bold ing the knife, and gnashing his teeth, said, ' Can you tell what this is, and no mistake?' A knife,' I an swered. Right, for once,' siid he ; 'and can you tell me what I shall do with it ?' I trembled, and shook my head in silent negative. I'll tell you what I shall do with it ; I shall scrape my charcoal.' " Russian Military Orders are of little value in the eyes of foreigners, on account of their number, yet eagerly sought after by the natives, as on them all cansi deration hinges. A colloquy which took place between a Tuck and a Russian officer on this subject is curious— showing a decided difference of opinion. " What is this ?" said the Turk, pointing to one of three crosses dangling from the other's Beck. " The cross of St. Anne," replied the Russian with pride, given me by the Emperor for my services." " Wonderful !" exclaimed the Turk ; then producing a handsome snuff-box,--" The Sultan gave me this for my services, is it not better? What is this?" said he, touching the second cross. " St. Vladimir," replied the Russian, rather hurt at the comparison made by his interlocutor, " also given me by the Emperor for my services." " Wonderful !" again exclaimed the Turk; and this," showing a richly-emblazoned Koran, " was also given me by the Sultan on another occasion when I pleased him ; is it not better? What is this?" he con cluded, pointing to the third cross. "Ah !" cried the Russian, with a lock of triumph, " this is the nw-t pre cious token of my Sovereign's regard ; this is the cross of St. George, only bestowed for courageous actions; to gain it nearly cost me my life." " God is great," said the astonished i,, 11 ussulman out."Yo: purse areuee of gold,lysat B fi , :d- Be bodi he added, l drawing the Sul tan gave me this as a reward for my services against you the Sultan knows better how to on such a day.
