The - conduct of this noble hero, during the late desperate engagement between the Ileindec!. and W!asp, in which he gloriously fell, is the theme of universal praise. After having part of the calves of his legs carried aA' ay by a cannon shot, he received another through 'both thighs, which made him sink, for two or three Minutes, on his knees ; but no entreaties could prevail , m-him to go below ; and recovering himself, he headed the boarders, with a full determhiation to master !ILL antagonist or perish. in the attempt : While cliitib ing into the rigging, two balls trom the Wasp's tops penetrated the top of his skull, and came Out beneath his chin. Placing left. hand to his forehead, - the other convulsively brandishing his sword, he exclaimed, " My God ! nit/ God. and dropped lifeless on his own deck.. l'he Rein deer was surrendered by the Captiiin's Clerk, no in.lividual.ot a higher degree being in a state to execute the melancholv - office. One of the Rein deer's men was ‘volmded in his head by a ram rod. About half of time runrod pa3sed through his temples, and remained stationary. Before it could be extricated it became necessary to saw it oil' close to one ,of the temples. Time wounded ntan is in a fair way of doing well. Although the official account of the capture of the Essex has .not vet reached the Admiralty, we hate (says a Morning Paper) been livoured with the following authentic particulars, in a letter :ruin Buenos' Ayres, dated 23d April. An express arrived there from (Ail, three or four days prior to the (late of the letter to Admiral DixoN, an nouncing the capture of the Auierican frigate Essex. She made an attempt to escape from Val pouraisa, in a strong' southerly gale, but lost her main-top-mast by carrying too great a, press of sail, when she tacked and endeavoured to return, but the wind would not allow her. The Mahe and Cherub then stood in, and attacked her, where she had anchored in a small hay named Villa la Mar. The Phoebe had only four killed and five wounded, the Cherub, one kilted and two wound ed. The loss on board the Essex was immense— upwards of 150 killed and wounded. Captain TucKan was slightly wounded in the kg. The whole of the rllednerrahean fleet w ere ex pected to leave the station for England, except five sail of the line, (Malta, Mnlgrave, l3ivoli, and Duncan), two frigates, and a few small vessels, which are to remain fo some time longer under Rear-Admiral lIALLowELL. The Brilliant, 74,. building at Genoa when that place was taken, was to be launched about the 26th of June, and, with four brigs of war, also taken there, would soon sail for England, laden with the Captured brass cannon. Every thing was quiet in Sicily ; the Parliament had not assembled. The bnchcss of ORLEAss (mother of the Ditke), was to leave Mahon in the Fame ; 74, Capt. BA TH U R ST, on the 25th tilt. for Marseillef , ; and the Aboukir, 74, N. Tuomrsotv, was waiting at Pa lermo, to take the Duchess of ORLEANS (wife of the Duke), to France. Many vessels have arrived from France during the week, laden with tat and lean beasts, calves, sheep, pigs, poultry, eggs, butter, fruit, and a variety of other commodities, the whole of which have been sold at such reduced prices as gill , it is hoped, be the means of lowering these articles in our own markets. The Dover, and Penelopei from England, arrived at Quebec on the .28th of May, and the Ceylon and Abundance store ship o n th e 30th. The Centaur- from Bourdeaux to Quebec, with tlie 9th and 42d Regiments on board, were 'all well on the 18th of June, in lat. 45: 3Q. long. 56. 15.—(flantphire Chronicle.)

The Duke de SAN CAIILOS has written, in the name of his Majesty, a Letter to the POPE'S Nun cio, •in Spain, whom the Cortes had requested to clpart from the Peninsula, and whose benefices in this kingdom had been sequestered, in which he invites that Prelate to forget the past, and to return and exercise his Imietiors in the capital of his Catholic Majesty. The Noncio has lost no time to yield to this request, and we expect him immediately. The Alarqtds of SOBEEMONTE,, late Viceroy of the Province of Rio de la 'Plata, ac cused of having failed in his military duties at the time of the invasion rof that Province, in 1506 and 1807, has been solemnly acquitted, and promoted to the rank of Field-Marshal. We are still un easy On account of the spirit which prevails in Navarre. We feel pleasure that in .this city no unpleasant circumstances - hare occurred from the unsettled state of commerce. The run on some of the pri vate Banks in Dublin had, for a day or two, caused a partial alarm, but the %veil known stability of the different IlanEs•whose Notes are in general circu lation here, has restored full confidence; and we. think it right to state, that the Notes of three Belfast Banks, and thoF,e of Messrs. Ball and Co. Alexaw,:er and Co. Finlay and - Co. and Shaw and Co. are taken at the Custom-house, and all the other Public Offices in this city as usual.— (Derry Juurnal.) By letters from America, it appears that the ex pedition which (lid so much mischief in the Con necticut river, on the 9th of April, was planned by dive Him. Captain CArEt., of La Hogue, who intrusted the execution of it to Captain IticttAari COOTE, of the Loup Cervier (now the Pea coek.)— He had with him four boats and 136 men, with which he ascended the Connecticut river some miles, to a place called Petit Pogue, where he burnt and destroyed 27 ships and vessels, amongst which were five privateers, some letters of marque, and some &Ist India ships. amounting, in the whole, to 5090 tons, and carrying 134 guns, together with - their sails, cordage, stores, *inking sheds, and tools; :with a loss on our part of only two men killed and two wounded ; and there were no de sertions, phuidering, nor any kind of disgraceful or disorderly actions whatever. 'The enemy col lected more than two thousand troops, with field pieces, to intercept our gallant little band in the boats on their return down the river ; but Capt. COOTE eluded them by dropping down with the tide after dark, for which he waited some hours, and his retreat was as masterly as any part of the achievement. " Thus ended," says the Connec ticut Gazette of the 12th April," an expedition, achieved with the smallest possible loss to the enemy, and greatest in magnitude of damage that has occurred on the sea board r .the United States since the commencement of the war." The American Government has ordered a fri gate, to be pr o p e ll e d by st e am , to he built at New York • Above 500 bankrupt petitions are set down for hearing before the LORD CLIANCELLOR,iii the pre sent sittings.

The First Part of Henry IV.-:-Hotspur was supported by TERRY in a very respectable manner: 'His physical - powers, however, di) not seem to be thoroughly adequate to the part. He was, in-.. deed, somewhat too violent in the 'earlier- scenes, and probably would hate sustained : the whole with-mote spirit if he had ceconoinized his strengths at first: MATnEws, for the first time, appeared in Falstaff. He seemed to act entirely-from his own sense of the character, and,"therefore,, we, had not more of the traditional trick than was necessary to give effect to son►e of the more ludi- crous• situations. Upon the whole, it was ahn morons performance,- . and excited much laughter. We have never seen EYRE so respectable as be was in liirtg Henry. THE '.MARKETS.
