DRURY-LANE.—The Mountaineers, one of Mr: COLMAN'S most interesting and popular dramas, was last night represented at this Theatre, and Mr. COOPER, for the first time, appeared before a London audience in the character of Octavian. it was evident, from the manner in which he per formed the part, that he had studied it well, and had probably matured it by practice. He is a steady, judicious, and intelligent actor, and he sustained the part throughout with spirit and feeling. The Coronation at this Theatre was so grand a spectacle that it must have been very expensive,' and the melancholy event which, of course, has closed the House, will, no doubt, prevent the Proprietor from having received any thing approaching to indemnity. COVENT GARDEN.—After the representation of Henry the Fourth, and the magnificent-spec tacle of the Coronation which succeeded, both of which were highly creditable to the Performers and the Proprietors, Mr. FAWCETT came for ward and delivered the following address, which was received with great applause : " LADIES AND GENTLE MEN—l•present myself to perform an unpleasant part of my duty--that of taking leave of you : but I derive consolation from the hope that the separation will be of short duration. A retrospective glance at our campaign affords matter for gratitude and exultation ; for you have gene rously patronized us by your approval ; and our most gracious Monarch has twice honoured us by the sanction of his name and presence. Most of our new productions have been suc cessful. For the lovers of Music, Opera, in the early part of the season, took the lead, and held a. conspicuous place. To please our juvenile friends at Christmas and Easter, our Harle quin Pantomime, and Melo-drama were happy in the extreme. Amongst Plays of a classical and refined cast, three new and successful Tragedies in one season, is a proof that modern Au thors arc not neglected by us, or unrewarded by you. But to conclude our labours on the 7th of August with one of the great works of our immortal Bard, got up in such a manner as to occasion its repetition twenty-seven times, (to the most crowded and splendid Audiences ever congregated within the walls of a Theatre), furnisites materials for diamatie history, and affords me the pleasing opportunity of now offering you the most sincere and grateful thanks of our Proprietors. Until the 27th of September next we close; and I can with truth de clare, no day in the interim will be passed without an effort to re-open with (if passible) increased effect. The Performers, Lathes and Gentlemen, and the humble individual whO has now the honour to address you, bog to add their thanks ; and we all, for the present, most respectfully bid yoularewell." ENGLISH OPERA II ousE.—A new musical piece was last night brought forward, at this Theatre, entitled, Two Wives; oe, a Hint to Husbands.— The chief purpose of this piece is to display the versatile talents of HARLEY, by various trans formations; all of which he adopted with the .most diverting facility and effect. Mr. PARRY, who is well known to the public by other works of the same nature, and by his musical talents and compositions, is understood to be the author, and its success will add to his reputation. THE VAUXHALL MASQUERADE.—No Fête of this kind ever afforded more rich and varied amusement than that which was enjoyed by the numerous and fashionable company that visited Vauxhall Gardens on Monday night. No place was ever so well adapted for such an entertain ment. The dark walks, which were now a most beautiful termination, were shut by two of Mr. Gyngell's elegant fancy theatres of arts, in which, at various parts of the evening, his un rivalled troop exhibited all their most attractive performances. Thus the masks moved about in a brilliant circle, than which nothing could be 'more enchanting and picturesque. The supper (by Wand) was excellent and plentiful, and the wine was of the best quality ; added to all this, the accommodation of the visitors had in every respect been minutely studied. The arrange ments for getting in and out of carriages were perfectly convenient, and contributed much to regularity and comfort in entering and departing from this scene of splendid gaiety. As is usual at all masquerades, dominoes were by far the most. numerous ; most of these were elegantly dressed. As to the characters, they were nu merous, and entertaining beyond all former ex ample. Vauxhall had, on this occasion, all its own characteristics, though the entertainment was changed to a masquerade. The illuminated seene of fairyism—the full tones of sprightly music—and the dancing nymph of exquisite form—all had their usual power to rouse the senses, and create a glow of pleasure in the soul ; and still to heighten the effect of the whole, 11 Diavolo Antonio, Mons. Chalons, and numerous other eminent' artists, went through the whole of their astonishing and elegant per formances. ANECDOTE OF QUIN.—Mr. QUIN, the Come dian, in whose dramatic corps the celebrated Mrs. BELLAMY was then performing, once, after the rehearsal, desired to speak with her in his dressing-room. As he had always carefully avoided seeing her alone, she was not a little surprised at so unexpected an invitation. Her apprehensions made her fear that she, by some means or other, had offended the worthy man ; but her fears were not of long duration ; for as soon as she entered his room, he took her by the hand, and with a smile of great benignity, thus addressed her, " My dear girl, you are vastly followed, I hear.—Do not let the love of finery, or any other inducement, prevail on you to com mit an indiscretion. Men in general are rascals. You are yonng and engaging, and therefore ought to be doubly cautimis. If you want any thing in 'my power, which money can purchase, come to me,- and say, JAMES QUIN, give me such a thing,' and my purse shall always be at your service." " The tear of gratitude," says Mrs. B. in her mernoirs, " stood in my eye at this noble instance of generosity; and his own glistened .with that of humanity and self-approbation." THE KING, &c. PORTLAND, AUGUST G. Last Friday evening the Royal Squadron and Escort anchored in this Bay; as soon as it was known in the island, every demonstration of the most ardent loyalty displayed itself, not only in the countenances of the hardy and loyal inhabi tants, but also by an illumination. It was agreed the next morning, as soon as the weather per mitted (it being a thick fog) that all the inhabi tants should assemble on the heights with bands of music, preceded by the different friendly so cieties with their colours flying; and being ar ranged abreast the Royal Yacht, to cheer his MAJESTY with nine times nine, and at the same time an address of loyal congratulation , should be forwarded, humbly to be laid at his Majesty's feet. At half past ten the horizon, command ing at the preventive station, proceeded to de liver the Address, but from the rapidity with which his Majesty's Yacht sailed, was unable to come up with her, when Lieuts. Nugent and Sparks reached his Majesty's ship Lfifey, com manded•by the Hon. li. Duncan, K. C. 13., who was pleased to take charge thereof, and assured those gentlemen that the Address should be de livered to the Commodore, Sir Charles Paget, K. C. B. to be laid before his Majesty. The in habitants continued on the heights marching in proceSsion with colours flying and music playing, and arriving opposite Pensylvania Castle, the residence of our highly esteemed Governor, I. Penn, Esq., they repeatedly cheered, and displayed to the assembled multitude (all dressed in their gayest attire) the standard of Great Britain (the pride of old England, and admiration of the world) flying at the main royal mast head of the Royal George yacht, under weigh. No language can do justice to the enthusiasm, which ran like an electric fluid through every breast. The band. struck up the long famed national anthem of " God save the King," when the welkin rung again with the cordial cheers and hearty acclamations of many thousands vociferating " God bless our King— King George the Fourth." At this moment Lieutenant Nugent, of the Royal Navy, (being deputed by the inhabitants to convey their loyal and congratulatory Address on board the Royal yacht), left the shore, accompanied by Lieut. Sparks, R. N., cheered the Royal yacht and the squadron, as they passed very close round the island. The loyal Address was signed by Lieut. Smith, R.N., in the name and on the behalf of the inhabitants, at the request of the following Committee— Messrs. Lano, Lowman, Winter, Pitts, Scollar, R. Pearce, Corrbeu, and Att wood ; and "who also deputed Lieut. Nugent, accompanied by Lieut. Sparks, to present the Address. The wind being S.E., and a fine breeze, the Royal flotilla proceeded to-the west ward with the universal good wishes of the loyal islanders. PLYMOUTH, SUNDAY, AUGUST s.—After the making up of the London bags last night, intel ligence was brought ashore by Sir W. CURTIS, who arrived in his pleasure yacht about 8 p.m., that our beloved KING had reached the port of Weymouth on his route hither. A general joy pervaded the neighbourhood, in expectation of greeting his Majesty this morning. The dock yard men were ordered to be in attendance, and the whole garrison was in readiness to turn out in a moment. Some pilots were sent for, and went off immediately with boats full of company for the Breakwater at midnight, where they pitched their tents in the anxious hope of having an opportunity of paying their homage to their Sovereign on the morrow at day-break. Once more, however, they were doomed to experience a disappointment. The Royal squadron is said to have passed by in the night, and has in all probability ere this reached Anglesea. The wind has been variable, but for the most part favour able. A t intervals it blew pretty fresh during the night, and has been succeeded by one of the finest days we have had this season. The grain begins to assume a richer tinge, and the harvest will probably be an abundant one. ANOTHER LETTER, SAME DATE.—Passed by this port last night, about 10 o'clock, with a fine breeze from the eastward, the Royal George yacht, with his Majesty on board ; also the Royal Sovereign yacht, and his Majesty's ships Liffey, Active, nind, Lee, Rosario, Chamelion, Wolf, Grecian, and Starling. DUBLIN, SATURDAY EVENING.—MS MAJESTY is fast approaching the shores of this part of his kingdom. lie is now on the water, beating up in all probability for, or doubling the Land's End. He has rather a long voyage from this point up the Irish Channel to Holyhead, where he purposes to rendezvous. We should suppose that he will not be able to reach this point of his destination before Wednesday next, and it is not perhaps until Thursday or Friday at the earliest that the citizens of Dublin, and the multitude which is pouring into the city from every quarter of the kingdom, shall have the happiness of shouting their enthusiastic welcome to the King of Ireland. In the mean time, the city is filling with greqt rapidity. All the hotels of Dublin are engaged, and numbers of private houses are occupied. Not fewer than 200 passengers, most of them distinguished personages, and persons in their suite, arrived by the Belfast steam packet, yesterday, from Liverpool. Thousands were thronging to the beach in Liverpool, and every vessel from the British shores comes freighted with passengers. The Holyhead packets are equally crowded. Numbers are now at the Head waiting for conveyance. Among the persons of distinction who have arrived are— The Marque acid Marchioness of Conyngham Sir Marcus Somerville, Lord Stopford, E. S. Cooper, Esq. 11.1'., General Croker, the Earl of Kingston, Lord Blaney, Lord and Lady Dufferin, W. G. Paxton; Esq. M.P. Colonel O'Malley, Jas. Daly, Esq. M.P., Lords Lorton, -Cafedon, and Forbes; Mar shal Lord Beresford, John W. Croker; Esq. NI.P. Lord Bishop of Raphoe, Bishop of Cloyne, Sir George Virtiiid,Aid-de-Camp to the King, General Hart, M.P., &c. • Almost all the Counties and every Corpora e Body in the kingdom, are convened for the pur pose of voting congratulatory Addresses to his Majesty on his arrival. DUBLIN, AUGUST 4.—1 have employed this morning in seeing the works at Dunleary. They are of a stupendous description. The prepara tions for his MAJESTY'S reception are going on with the utmost rapidity. his Majesty is not to be received at the water's edge, the foundation there being of stone—but on the first spot of Irish grOund on which he happens to place his foot, where a stone, with an inscription, will afterwards be fixed to commemorate the event. A canopy will be raised over a platform, on which a temporary throne will be placed for the ac commodation of his Majesty, while he receives the homage and dutiful gratulations of those who shall have the honour to approach him. The canopy is to be surmounted with the Imperial Crown, and of sufficient elevation to allow the multitude a view of their beloved Monarch. The men employed in the works, to the number of one thousand, will be all dressed in white, wear inn ribbons in their hats, with the words " God save the King" inscribed on them. They will be ranged along the pier, and assist in preserving order in the immense assemblage that will attend on the occasion. The harbour is admirably calculated to give an imposing effect to the delightful scene. Assuming, the form of a vast natural amphitheatre, the ground is capable of accommodating upwards of 208,000 persons. The Wicklow Mountains rising in wild and broken ridges, close the romantic perspective in the rear, and the rugged promontory of Howth presents on the opposite side an aspect still more bare and unmitigated. The interjacent space forms the harbour, and as the person entering it advances towards Dublin, his eye lights upon objects chequered by all the sublime variety of nature. Parts of the different quarries at Dun leary are charged with gunpowder, and the moment the King arrives a simultaneous explosion will take place. The harbour, when finished, will include a space of water capable of contain ing 800 square-rigged vessels, and will afford anchorage for the largest ship in the British Navy. The base of the pier is 300 feet broad, the top , loo feet, the height 50, and the average breadth is 100 feet. Every foot of the pier con tains 10,000 cubic feet of stone, and three feet of this work is executed, every day. It is affirmed that it will, when ,completed, be the greatest thing in the known world. The markets here have risen considerably in consequence of the Royal visit. Butchers' meat of every kind has risen from two to three pence in the pound ; and every thing else in proportion. I am concerned to state that Mr. Mash, of the Lord Chaniberlain's Department, met with an unfortunate accident yesterday, while taking an airing in his' gig in the Phoenix Park. Ile was thrown out with so much violence, that he is now confined to his bed by the effects of the fall ; but it is hoped he may be sufficiently recovered be fore his Majesty arrives, to resume his official duties. Nine o'clock at niglit.—A detailed account has just been published of the arrangements at the Castle for his Majesty's reception. I shall for ward the particulars to-morrow. [ANOTHER. LETTER, SAME DATE.]—I have learned from some friends who landed here yes terday, via Liverpool from London, that on board the Lord. Moira packet, by which they came, there were twelve large chests well packed with his Majesty's plate, which was used at the Coronation, and which left London on last Thursday week by the Paddington canal-boats, and arrived at Liverpool on Tuesday night. On board the same packet were also 36 packages of kitchen and cooking -furniture, contained in three large crates, and all under the care of two servants of the scullery and a serjeant belonging to the recruiting service in Liverpool. The ser jeant's instructions were to have them all deli vered at the Castle of .Publin, and they were all delivered accordingly this morning. One of his Majesty's footmen landed from the same packet, and drove up to the Castle about eight o'clock yesterday evening.—On board the Anncsley packet, which arrived at the Pigeon-house this morning, came about forty large cases, some di rected to Sir B. Bloomfield, but most to his Ma jesty, at the Phmnix Park, and a few at the Castle. .Several of them were from Touissant, of the Haymarket, his Majesty's chandler, and from others of his Majesty's tradesmen in Lon don. All these packages came by land to Liver pool, and were there put on board on Wednes day morning, under the care of some servants and a serjeant from the Liverpool station, who was instructed to see them safely delivered at the respective places to which they were directed. .„ List of the Subscriptions of the Turf Club, for erecting a Royal stand in honour of his Majcsty'S visit to the Curragh of Kildare His Grace the Duke of Leinster, 200 gs. ; Marquis of Sligo, 150 gs. ; Lord Mayo, Lord Dunally, and Sir Charles Coote, 100 gs. each ; Lord Portarlington, Mr. Kcatenge, and Mr. Caldwell, stewards, and Captain Browne, ranger, 50gs. each ; Mr. Prendergast and Colonel Bruen, 100 gs. each ; Sir Walter Borrowes, Borrowes, Colonel Armstrong, Mr. I)axen, Mr. Gere, Mr. Pepper, Mr. Kirwan, Lord Allen, Lord Clan morris, and Mr. Gregory, Dublin Castle, 50gs. each.

A Ilamb&ill Mail arrived this day, dated July 31. It contains an Addres. from the citi zens of Hanovei to his IVIAAry, expressive of their loyalty, and the happiness whicli they shall receive on beholding their gracious Sovereign.— Then occurs the following article, dated " LEIPZIG, JULY 27. 44 We have just received letters from Smyrna of the 19th June, which contain no political news; but as we find from them that goods have been shipped for us, insurances effected, and bills drawn, we think that we may take it for granted that the accounts inserted in the news papers, of dreadful occurrences said to have taken place on the 16th of June, if not wholly unfounded, are at least much exaggerated. " COPENHAGEN, JULY 24. " Admiral Winterfeldt, the Senior of the Danish navy, is dead, at a very advanced age." The rest of the Mail refers to a fanatical sect abroad, who deserve no notice but contempt. AMERICAN PAPERS. We this. morning received New York Papers to the Ist of July, but we have already inserted intelligence from that quarter to the 11th of that month, and we subjoin other extracts of the same date : [From a Bermuda Paper of the 9th July.] TILE TIMES IN BARBADOES.—A writer in the Barbadoes Globe draws an appalling picture of the times, as respects the commercial and landed interests hi that island. Property of every kind is said to be daily sinking in value. The crops generally have been reduced in an asto nishing degree, by two successive unfavour able years—and what little produce is reaped lies on hand for want of purci►asers. The pri sons are crowded with insolvents, and general ruin, he states, seems to be fast approaching.— Amongst the causes which have contributed to produce the difficulties and distresses to which they are exposed, he especially takes notice of the baneful system, which for some time has been pursued, of altering the relative value of the coins, and thereby depreciating the currency. lie asserts that the bartering of doubloons for dollars, in Demerara, and vice versa, produces a profit of nine per cent.; and the temptation being so great, the Island is thereby drained of its circulating medium. He calls upon the House of Assembly to take this serious evil into their consideration. BALTIMORE, JUNE 23.—Extract of a letter from an officer lately arrived at Philadelphia from Mexico, to his friend in this city. " All the inhabitants of Mexico are now undeceived. The insurrection is general since the 24th of February last, when Col. Iturbide proclaimed the independence, of the country at the head of the troops of the Vice Roy. All the towns which have been taken have surrendered without spilling a drop of blood. Mexico and Vera Cruz are on the eve of being entirely free. Never was the cause of liberty so prosperous as at present. " The insurgents of Mexico are in" possession of the Port of Alvarado near Vera Cruz. I hope that ere three or four months we shall be able to return to Mexico, and receive the re ward due to our services and privations." Since April 1, .34 vessels for the Brazils and South America, have cleared at our different ports. PUBLIC FLAGELLATION AND VIOLENT OUT RAGE.—Monday morning, about 12 o'clock, mul titudes of persons assembled in Goswell-street, to witness the punishment of a fellow named Edward Bagster, who had been convicted of various felonies, and sentenced to three months imprisonment and to be publicly flogged. Soon after 12 o'clock, the prisoner arrived from the House of Correction in a coach, and having been made fast to the tail of a cart, he was well whip ped from the end of Noble-street to the sign of the Man in the Moon, a distance of 100 yards. He was an elderly man, and appeared very in different about it. After the punishment was in flicted a most formidable gang of ruffians armed themselves with stones, brick-bats, &c. and re paired to the, house of Mr. Oliver, in Noble street, who was the principal prosecutor of Bag ster, and commenced a most violent attack upon the house. Stones were flying in every direction to the great danger of the passengers. Mr. Oli ver was struck on the head with a large flint stone, which felled him to the ground. Mr. Oliver entreated the mob to desist, but this only increased their violence, and it was with great difficulty he escaped with his life. He at length succeeded in shutting his shop, and all egress or ingress was stopped by the rioters till about eight o'clock in the evening, when a party of the Bow-street patrol arrived, and after some time suppressed the tumult. Several of the ring leaders were secured. '
