BLOOMFIELD and another Gentleman. nis.MA. JESTY looked remarkably well. We have received the French Papers of Thurs day and Friday, the contents of which are of considerable importance, with reference to the question of peace or war between Russia and Turkey, and in relation to the disturbed state of af fairs in Sp a i n. —T he extracts from these papers will be found in our preceding columns. If the " Conditions," s a id t o h ave b een d e - Thanded from the Porte by Russia since the de parture of Baron STROGONOFF from Constauti n°Ple, be correctly stated, it is quite evident that the Porte has no alternative but war. Even if the Divan should manifest a disposition favour able to this virtual surrender of the inde- Peadence of the Ottoman Empire, the Turkish people and soldiery would not suffer them to carry the design into execution. With all their Vices and ferocity, the Turks are possessed of great animal courage ; and while they possess that quality, w i t h t h e i r consummate arrogance, and profound ignorance of the real strength of Russia, and of the real weakness of their own resources and power, they will immolate the Grand Se' nor and all hi s Off icers o f St a t e ra th er !Elan ta mely surrend er t o a p eo pl e w h om th ey th both despise an d h ate, the absolute controul over e future condition of the countries now subject t o thei r b arbarous sway.

We t-Vght indeed complain, if we were fastidious, that ca p r icious gentry accmiipany their-money ri ot th ° ass ertions, to the truth of which we can conscientiously assent. Not satisfied with t a e ve rel Y relievi ng t h e pecuniary difficulties of their tialittrites, an act in itself very laudable, espe- Cp it when v i ewed in connection with the cir otustances of their unoffending families, the %i4loters of t h e . subscriptions and the sub-1 p aiit u ers will no doubt contend that their libe off Y is a proof of the public _ virtue of the or i t e h t.s of their bounty, of the inestimable value d ty, e' r Public services, and of the baseness an mc n ,uY of those high Constitutional_ Authorities on es ' l ave overlooked the absolute wisdom of the s i o s . 3 and have dispensed with the future proces iit_nal s ervices of the other!

Accord_ ins to the military Legislation of Gieat Britain, and to precedents which are respected there, compliance with this just desire cannot be refused. There is every reason to hope that the principles of justice appealed to by General WiLsoN, will triumph over the private sentiments to which they appear to have been sacrificed, and that this worthy citizen, whose reputation in England is founded on the most eminent services, will see a measure revoked of which there are very few examples in the history of the English Government._(Constitutionnel, Sept. 21.) • BEIIGAAIT.----The Journal des Debals of 'Wed nesday last has the following statement:—" It is announced that the famous limt GAM r died at Milan on the 10th of August.

Several Deputies have been created Knights of those Orders, and also of the Order of Vasa. Others have been gratified by appointments in the civil depart ments, which they had solicited. The Court reckon, by these measures, on securing a majo rity in their favour. The King of SW EDEN has appointed a Committee to draw up a plan for separating into classes, and finding employment for, prisoners detained in the state fortresses; also for procuring every possible amelioration of their situation, and the adoption of such regu lations as may peoduce a better government and direction of the public prisoners.

As Mason, well known fdr his musical pow'r, Was saunt'ring along, at a somewhat late hour, A Ruffian, whose bus'ness is plunder to catch, Knock'd him down, and despoil'd him of purse and of watch. Sure APOLLO and HER.MEs have had a dispute, Else the Minstrel had 'scap'd from the pillaging Brute, And the Patron of Thieves would have made the rogue follow Some ?Miser, and not rob the Son of APOLLO. But, MAJOR, at loss of thy cash do not grieve, Since none can thy mind of true genius bereave, • And all are quite happy thy notes to receive. Neither mourn for thy watch, fortis truth, tho' in rhyme, That in music or morals thou'lt always keep time. THE WITCH. By the late Pastoral Poet, J. CIINNINGFug. A Witch, that from her Ebon Chair, Could hurl destruction thro' the air ; Or, at her all-commanding will, Make the tumultuous Ocean still ; Once, by an Incantation fell, (As the recording Druids tell) Pluck'd the round moon, whose r4diant light Silver'd the sober noon of night ; From the domain she held above, . Down to a dark infernal grove. Give me, the Goddess cry'd, a cause Why you disturb my sacred laws ? Look at my train—yon wand'ring host I See how the trembling stars are lost ! Through the ccelestial regions wide, Why do they range without a guide ? Chaos; from our confusion; may Hope for ins old detested sway. I'm, says the Witch, severely crost, Know that my favourite Squirrel's lost., Search—for I'll have creation torn, If he's not found before the morn. - Soon as the impious Charge was given, From the tremendous Stores of Heaven, JOVE, with a bolt, revengeful !—red ! Struck the detested monster dead. If there are slaves to pity blind, With pow'r enough to pl ag n e M an ki n d, That for their own nefarious ends, Tread upon FREEDOM. and her FRIENDS, Let them beware the Witch's fate When their presumption's at the height JOVE will his angry powers assume, And the curs'd miscreants meet their doom SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 21.—The adjourned grand Cricket Match, between Havant and Portsmouth, was concluded yes terday, and was most unexpectedly won by the latter; the average of betting had been three to one at the close in favour of the former. Havant had the last innings ; with four Wickets standing, they had but 13 notches to make. By singtilar good luck, however, on the part of Portsmouth, or by very bad play upon their own, they were bowled and caught out by their opponents, ere they had scored more than one run.. This is keeping up our charter, as we have not been beaten for the last seven years. Some marquees were pitched for the accom modation of the company, which had assembled to witness this manly game. With the cessation of our sports has terminated the fine weather ;it has rained the whole of to-day without the least intermission, but the harvest, by this time, is pretty well housed. On Tuesday - last a Cricket match was played on Alton Butts, between eleven of Alresford and a like number of Alton, which was decided in favour of the latter, with one wicket to go down. Alresford, in the two innings, scored 76, and their op ponents 77.. The match was keenly contested, and excited great interest.—(Hampshire Chronicle.) At Bumper. Castl , - the shooting box of th e D u k e of R u tl an d, between the 13th and 27th of August, 664 grouse were bagged by two Gentlemen. _ John C.

The Hampshire Telegraph gives the follow ing particulars relative to his MAJESTY'S depar ture for the Continent, under the date of Satur day evening " This morning, at day-light, the Royal squa dron, under Commodore the Hon. Sir Charles Paget (which returned to Spithead, from Duu leery, on Monday last), sailed for Ramsgate, at which place his Majesty will embark on Mon day next, and proceed to the Continent, on a tour of about six weeks. The Admiralty yacht has been ordered to join the Royal squadron, as, should the weather permit, it is his Majesty's intention to land by her either at Antwerp or Ostend. His Majesty, we understand, will tra vel under the title of Count Lunenburg. The Royal squadron, which consists of the Royal George, Active, Liffey, Lee, Hind, and Came -lion, will return to Spithead, after his Majesty's debarkation, and proceed to Calais, to escort his Majesty to England again, in about five weeks. The Royal Sovereign and Prince Regent yachts, have arrived at Deptford, and are preparing to be laid up. " We have been favoured with the following sketch of the preparations making at Hanover for the reception of his Alajesty, contained in a letter received here this morning : " Hanover, 4(.1)1. B.—lt is now certain the King will arrive here about the latter end of the month ; ever preparation possible is making for a suitable reception : the troops will shortly begin to assemble, the greater part will go into quarters and cantonments, and the remainder will encamp about the city. One brigade of Foot Artillery comes from Stade ; and the Horse Ar tillery, from \Vaunstorf, under the command of Major Cleeves, will go into cantonments near the Palace of Ilerreuhausen ; a very great number will be quartered in the city, which is undergo ing many improvements. All the hotels and lodging-houses are fitting up in great style. Every instant we expect the arrival of Count Alunster, to give further directions. The King ‘v ill make his public entry into the city through the Stein (stone) Door, which is now preparing in a most superb and beautiful manner. All the persons in the civil departments are very busy getting ready their particular dresses ; and every class is well employed, and anticipating with sincere joy the sight of a beloved Monarch visit ing the kingdom of his ancestors. The whole place will he brilliantly illuminated several nights, and the States have voted 6000 dollars (100 W.) for lire-works the first night only. " The King NI ill be, I believe, at his summer residence at the Palace of Iferrenhausen, about a iniJe and a quarter from the city ) the road leading to which is through the most beautiful avenue of the finest tall elm trees in Europe."

The inhabitants, excited by the description of the KING'S visit to Ireland, promised themselves, that even that portion of their fellow subjects should not surpass them in enthusiasm. On every route, where his -MA JESTY'S presence is even a probable,event,exten sive preparations were making for his reception. A Sunday Paper says, Sir WM.

He is living at Brighton, in comfort and respectability, upon the fruits of what he has rea lized, and his wife's income. The former is not a great deal ; the INCLEDON was always open-handed and liberal; and besides, with a degree of generosity which we think is unique, he al ways gave up all he had made to the children of the last marriage, whenever he contracted a new one. lie has been married three times. By his retirement is extin guished what we boldly term the finest male voice that the history of music has upon record. Exceeding by many degrees all others in power, splendour, and extent, it was at the same time exquisitely sweet, and possessed a peculiarity of tone which tinguished it from all others, and can neve: be forgotten by those who, as we did, hear it in its glory.—(Edinburgh Courant - , Sept. 20.)
