The . common dis ease is the ague and fever, which is not very fatal, though .very distressing. At. Harper's Ferry the disease bad not sensibly abated, and at the Big Lick, on the Ist inst. it continued to spread.

Loan OCIIRANE'S ENTRY INTO LIMA.--(Ex tract of a letter from a British merchant in Lima, dated July 19.)—" Yesterday Lord COCIIRANE made his, entry into this city, and his reception Was most flattering. A magnificent chariot, with four cream-coloured horses, was sent to Chorillos, a port about two leagues from Lima, for his re ception, accompanied by the Cabildo and the Chief Officers of State, His Lordship was re ceived by the Archbishop, Bishops, and all the heads of the Convents, and conducted to the Palace, amidst the most enthusiastic shouts from the P eop l e, o f cc Viva la Patria," " Viva l'Alrni , ratite," Sz.c. A magnificent dinner was prepared en this most memorable occasion, of which Oen. San Martin, Lord Cochrane, and their Staff, to gether with the Great Officers Of State, and all the heads of departments, partook. Nothing can exceed the enthusiasm of the Peruvians at having gained their liberty. They naturally an ticipate great advantages from that intercourse with the rest of the world which has been so long denied them, and appear particularly anxious to cultivate a friendly intercourse with England—a facility which the gallantry and judicious con duct of Lord Cochrane has tended powerfully to promote." RIO DE JANEIRO, OCT. I.—The people here - are very quiet, but I fear unless the Cortes send some troops immediately, we shall have further d isturbances. I think there is a very strong party here for declaring independence, and it is only because the, Portuguese are not disposed to fall "IF from the government- by the Cortes, that keeps affairs from coming to an issue. The idea is very general that when the Deputies from the Brazils meet in Cortes, they will insist on' the r il e ture of the Court to Rio. From all I see of b„ e . 1 18 POsition of the people, that measure must t a "Pted, or in a short tune all the troops Por eugal can. send will be insufficient to prevent a le claratio n o f i n d e p en d en c e .

THE THEATRES. • DUD RY-LANE.—As De Montfort has not been found so attractive at this Theatre as was ex pected, it is now supported by a renewal of The Coronation, a spectacle which is so grand that, often as it has been repeated, it is still a promi nent object of public curiosity. COVENT GARDEN.—The play of Twq.Gende men of Verona was repeated last night, and at tended by a very numerous audience, among whom were the Duke of W ELLINOTON, the Mar quis of LONDONDERRY, and many other visitors of the higher order. The whole of the magnifi cent additions to the play went off with more smoothness and precision. Miss TREE and Miss lIALLANDE exerted themselves in a generous emulation, the result of which was highly gra tifying, and the actors in general powerfully con tributed to the general entertainment. ADELFIII Ttic tTnE.—A, little disorder arose last night at this theatre, on account of the accidental fall of some paint pots over the ciel ing, the contents of which dripped over the pit. Mr. LEE, the Stage Manager, immediately came forward and informed the audience, that if any part of them had suffered any injury in their cloaths, they should be fully indemnified by the Proprietor. There was not the least danger, and this assurance restored tranquillity and good humour. CORONER'S INQUEST. An Inquest was taken on Tuesday last, and continued till the following‘day, before ThOMAS DE LASAUX, Esq. one of the ' Coron er s for Kent, at St.. Lawrence, in the Isle of Thanet, on the body of Eleanor Trittoii, the unfortunate woman found dead under some mysterious•circumstances, as stated in our last. The first witness examined was Thomas Wood, who deposed that he lived at St. Stephen's, near Canterbury, and that on Monday morning last, about six o'clock, he found the body of the deceaied in the highway leading from Canterbury to Rams gate. • • • Mr. John Curling, of Ozengell, was next examined, and de posed to the permission given to the deceased, who had lived with him'for upwards of five years as cook, to go out tbr a holi day on the Sunday ; and that on being infonned on the follow ing morning that she was lying dead in the road near the turnip field of Mr. Garret, he went there and saw her body, and direct ed it to be. removed to St. LawrenCe workhouse ; that he then proceeded towards Sandwich, where on the road at Ebb's Fleet gate, he learned that a gig had passed through there about i nine on the preceding evening from Sandwich, and that a person of the name of Pain was in it; and on further inquiry, that Elea nor Tritton, the deceased, and the said gig with Pain in it, had also passed the Red Lion public-house at Stonar on' the same . evening •- . John - Tipper, the landlord of the Red Lion public-house above-mentioned, deposed, that the prisoner Pain stopped at his . house on Sunday evening, about nine o'clock, in a single horse chaise, and had a glass of English gin, observing that he had overtaken a young woman and requested her to ride, which she refused ' • and he, (Tipper) thinking it late for a young w om an to be walking alone went out and heard some person approach ing, who, having nearly reached his house, a woman dressed in black, and in every respect resembling the deceased, said " •Is there any person here waiting for me from Ozengell ?" to which he, eplied No." She then said she should walk on, and pro ceeded accordingly. Soon after - which the said John Pain left his house in the chaise, and was apparently very sober. William Gibbons, .the keeper of Ebb's Fleet-gate, deposed, that the prisoner passed through 'the gate on Sunday afternoon, in a single horse chaise, in which, besides himself, who Was driving it, there was a gentleman, and that about nine in the. evening of the same day the said chaise, also driven by Pain, re tained through the gate, he only being in it; at the same time a young woman dressed in dark clothes was walking by the side of t?ie chaise, and appeared, to.be in convervsation with the person who drove it. John Castle, of the parish of'Saint Lawrence, servant in hus bandry, deposed, that on Sunday afternoon, Nov. 23th, the deceased left the house of Mr. John Curling, of Ozengell ; that the said Eleanor Tritton not returning at her usual hour (9 o'clock), he went out to meet her toaccompany her home ; that he had !proceeded about three quarters of a mile, when he met a chaise, and that the person who accompained him (J.Mummery) called out " Ozengell," the name of the farm where the deceased lived servant; that thereupon the said EleanorTritton, whom he knew by her voice, replied, " Castle, ibr Heaven's sake take me out," meaning out of the chaise in which she was riding; that then, the person who was driving, whipped the horse, which immediatqy sprang, forward at an increased rate; that lie then turned round, and followed the chaise as fast as he could; that on turning the corner from the Sandwich into the Canterbury road, the deceased said, " for Goa's sake take me out," and she appeared attempting to throw herself into his arms, but she was prevented from doing so by the man who was in the chaise pulling her back':—she then said " Lord have mercy upon us :—come on, Castle."—Witness continued following the shaise on the road leading towards Ramsgate, but could not overtake it : and on its turning out of the present turnpike road. into the old Sandwich-road, and from thence toward Chilton, he then lost sight of it. Witness then pro ceeded towards Ramsgate, and having arrived there, •he per. ceived the chaise coming from the .Barracks,• and followed it into the town ; the nearer witness g ot to it, the more the driver whipped. The chaise then turned up Broad-street, and came down by the new chapel, then turned up the High-street, through Chatham-street, into the . Margate road, where witness lost sight of it. Witness then went home to Oiengell, and told his fellow servant what had passed; and witness and the• said John Mummery took a lantern and searched in the field for the deceased, but could not find her : they then went home to bed, at about two o'clock in the morning; he got up again about five, and then his master .was called by the said J. Mummery, who, in his presence informed him that the cook was missing. —That thereupon his master took his horse and Proceeded towards Margate, having directed Mummery and hims.ellto take the Ramsgate road, which they did, having previously ap-. pointed to meet at the Spread Eagle, Ramsgate, after they had made the necessary search. That they met there, and witness communicated to his master, as did also • Mummery, that the cook was dead, and stated where she was. Witness bad exa mined the body of the deceased and found it was the said Elea nor Tritton. That when he saw the chaise in Ramsgate • there was only one person in it ; the deceased was not in it. • , John Mummery deposed that, in companv.with Castle,. he followed the chaise till he lost sight of it on the Turnpike-road leading from Canterbury to Ramsgate, near Mr. Garrett's. fir trees ; Castle being about four . rods before him. In other par ticulars his evidence was corroborative of that of Castle. Mr. Algernon Sidney Peake, surgeon, of Ramsgate, 'depos ed; that he had examined the Cody of the deceased, and found no external bruises sufficient.to have- caused her death; and that he had every reason to believe that the deceased came to her death, by the itipture . of a blood vessel in her head; and he was led to that conclusion by the swollen appearance of her fea tures, and her mouth being full of blood. The CORONER summed up the evidence in a most able manner, and the Jury, after a careful consideration, brought in a verdict of Manslaugh ter against John Pain; who was immediately com mitted under the Coroner's warrant, for trial, to Maidstone gaol ; whither he was escorted by two peace officers, and passed through Canterbury on Wednesday in one of the night coaches.—( Ken tish Gazette, Nov. 30.)

He dines at' four o'clock every day, and considers it an unlucky omen if his senses are not reposing in " balmy sleep" atfour o'clock in the morning.--(Brighton Gitzette.) POETRY. GREECE. Is it but the hollow wind Thro' the dreary seabeach soundirig— Is it but the hunted hind Thro' the leafy desert bounding ? 'Tis the tread of Grecian men, Rushing - thro' the twilight pale ; 'Tis the echo of the glen To their trumpet's brazen What has lit that-sanguine star, Sitting on-the mountain's brow ? • 'Tis the fiery sign of war To the warrior tribes below. Where was born the sudden flash, Darting upwards from the shore ? Answer—sword and target's clash Answer—Freedom's halloiv'd roar...! Onward comes the mighty column, Winding by the silver sea ; To its chaunt severe and solemn, Athen's hymn of liberty ! Now they climb the Spartan mountain, Now they sweep th' Arcadian vale, Now beside the Argive fountain, Glitters in the morn their mail ! Like a storm the march advances, With a deep and gathering sound ; Nov above the throng of lances See the ancient flags unbound ! Bearing each a glorious name, Each-a summons to the soul, Each a guiding lightning flame.— Soon the thunderbolt shall roll! Not a spot that host are treading, But has been a hero's grave ; But has seen a tyrant bleeding, But has seen a ransom'd slave ! Moslem, fly ! thy hour is come, For the sword shall smite the chain In that shout has pial'd thy doom, Greece shall be nerself again ! TRISSINO. UNIVERSETY INTELLIGENCE.
