ACCQUNTS from the Coast of France state, that on Sunday last about fifty different kinds of Craft crept out of Boulogne Harbour, and having arranged themselves close in-shore under their Sit. teries, at twelve o'clock they fired a feu.dejve; and in the evening a grand display of fireworks were seen on the shore. The masts in the Harbour were all dressed with a profusion of Colours.— These demonstrations of joy were no doubt made by these degraded slaves of the Corsican Usurper, in honour or his Coronation. Accounts have been received from Holland which state, that the whole commercial interest of that Country is in the highest state of irritation against' their French tyrants, at the abominable corkinCl of the qrnerals, who, after taking bribes for pe►mitting English goods to pass, secretly and others of their gang to seize and confi.cate theta. They are now at ually extorting from the inha. bitants a Tax of 1 per cent. on Property ; so that every person who possesses tool. a year is obliged to give Sol. a year to the French for their protec tion ; for 4. per cent, on Capital is equivalent to So Per cent. on Income. Such a system cannot last many years. The Ss4trtiore is arrived at Plymouth, with Ms patches from Rear. Admiral COCHRANE, but their contents have not yet transpired. W E stayed some time ago, .upon an authority on which we knew we could place the most per. lea reliance, that Mr. FRIRE had demanded his Passports, and intended to leave Madrid on the Toth talt. unless (what we did not by any means consider as probable) the Court of Spain had given satisfa . 4tory assurances ; riot only of its desire, but 'of its power, to preserve a stria Neutrality dur. ing the War. The Lisbon Mail, which arrived this morning, as fat as it oan be relied upon; con. firms ni both in our falls and our opinions. The Letters which we have received from Lisbon state, that Mr. hum; and Mr. IluNTett have neittalb , left Madrid ; and that no hope whatever remained that a War between Great Britain and Spain could be avoided. We do .not, however, pledge ourselves to the truth of that statement, though we think it very probable. Mr. FREILE is traits to have sent ofthis Dispatches, containing the coal determination of the Cabinet 'of Madrid, by the Mama Packet, which is not yet arriv. ed,....Great apprehensions are entertained at Lisbon, that Portugal, notwithstanding its anxious d es i re 'to ternain at peace, will be forced intO the War, or at least that BorrArmtTs will require another enor. mous bribe, to induce him us grant that unfurtu. nate Kingdom a temporary respite.

Tuna MA)trties anti the five PR INCEsIIIII list :tithe honoured this Theatre with their presence, They were received by an overflowing audience with every demonstration of the most enthusiastic loyalty. The Royal Party testified their whin. Lion in the most gracisrusly condescending manner. The performances were The School for Scandal and Cbrierelia, which were supported with great spirit by the respeftive Performers, who successfully ex erted themselves to give every effect to their cha. rafters, " God 'awe rho Zing," and " Rule Britannia," were sung in full chorus, the first on the entrance of the ROYAL Nary, and the other after the Play. THEIR MAJESTISS and the ROYAL FAMILY looked remarkably well, and seemed great. ly pleased with the whole performance. The Young koicius, after his performance at Covenr-garden Theatre, was brought to Druty.lane by Mr. Sus. KIDAN, into whose box he was introduced. The House was crowded with beauty and fashion. Covent-garden. The'Yorms Romitis last night personated Frt. derick, in Laver"' Yaws. It was his fourth appear. ance upon this stage, and his first in this character. Here, as in his two former eharaclers, Rehm.? Ind Norval, filial piety is the prevailing feature. Itiis, indeed, more universally diffused and prominent than in either of the former. It is, in f.iet, the sole passion that fills his breast, unmixed with love, as in dichntet, or a thirst for military glory, as in Yesag Dorval, Here then, all the disadvantages .of Isis early youth vanish. He is not called upon to pour. tray any passion inconsistent with his years. Ilan Attor be to draw from his own feelings, where can filial affeilion burn with so much ardour as in the breast of a stripling just old enough to acknowledge the obligation of duty, superinduced upon the ins. pulse of nature f Fancy cannot conceive u mote beautiful pitiure of a fond and duteous son than th e portrait exhibi te d b y t hi s wonderful boy last night. His grief and amazement in the first scene, o n meeting his mother in distress—his eager so is 'tide when he inquires the secret of his birth—hi. a;ita. [ion while his mother relates her story rout the struggle between snrrpw and pride, when, on being told of his father's neglen, he says— " I will carry you in my arms to Alsace.—Nol—Why should I ever know my rather it he is a villain ?--Nly heait is satisfied with a mother.-L-No I I will not go to Jinn. I will not disturb his }wave. I leave that task to his ccn- Iticrree." • were expressed with the most exquisite tenderness and feeling. True to nature, every lone sinic, into the heart and awakes all its sensibility. The ek. quence of his pleading eye, when he says to the cot tager.-- ' " Coed friend, look at that poor woman. She it.perish ing in the public road ! It it ny rwtber !

It was impossible to give more expression to the sentence than he did. Wa hasten to the great scene in the fourth aft, With one preliminary observation ujmn the first scene i n that an, When Amelia brings into his prison snipe refreshment for him, she tells him that the m u , against whom he had lifted his sword WHY Baron Wilienhaim, his father. The emotion with which he delivered the words, " father 1" was tably fine. The scene with the Baron is, perhaps, one of his best pieces of Ming. He encounters his father's presence with a firm and steady eye ; not daunted by'the haughtiness with which he is received, he surveys the Baron with a feeling of deep indigna tion for his cruelty to his mother ; the keenness syith which he probes; :the cool, cutting nature of his rebuke ; the deep, increasing, awful interest of his story :; the manner Well he al4rop. , the eottseiene e of the 'Barg'', and winds his feelings up to the highest pitch of agony and remorse, wete in the best style of ading. 44 Aly lath r d cs not discard me for my vices ; he dues "nor know me ; h as never seen itlC; ahundone me even before t was born." The manner in which he delivered this speech Wiit admirably calculated to touch the conscience of the Baron; he proceeded with increased efren A it the wet ht disclaims me except my mother; anti there again I to thank my lather." He moved every Heart by the admirable patlini with which he delivered the first part of the bdlow. ink* speech, and the cutting rebuke with which he caused the " After hvo. years absence from my mother, I returned this very .by, and fohnd her dying in the streets for want ...- not even a but to shelter her, or A pallet ut straw.—llut my father, he feels not that I He lives Ili A palace, sleeps on the Softest down, enjoys all the luxuries 01 the great, and when he 'best serrnoti will praise his great benevolence— his Christian charities," The discovery of himseiflo the ,Baron—the tone With which he reproaches him—the rthinner 1,3 f his speaking the words " You Jhall deliver me into the Wads of justice"—the terrifying expression .he gave to the speech, And when you turn your head from my extettded gorse, you will behold my weeping Mother I Need A paiat how ? trr eyes will greet you!' drew down 4 storm and tempts; of applisurt. Equally excellent am the owner df his ritqt, with these wnttis, _ " I made a sinner tremble." ' In the fifth aft theie is little for him to do--he has bus one short scene with his father—heperfornat i i it as well as it could be done. The part of Ftvdtrick is less fatiguing than either Achmet or Neraud. In justice to the Audience, we most admit, that this ohservatian was frequently made. Although they slid not feel any interest in the scene when he was absent, they left A gratification from the long inter. vats of rest which the Piece allows him.. Next to admiration of his powers, if there be any one pte..: vailiqg seatimerrt in the public mind, we are confi. dent it is a parental solicitude for his health, an anxious wish for the safety of those uncommon ts. lents which are now considered a public treasure. But though the great in;ere.r of the Pied. dues not survive the fourth Al, the following passage in the fifth deserves particular notice : My fate, whatever it may be, shall nevermtmefromlie r. This is my tittn resolution, iiiion which IcaVieavell9 witness! My Lord, it must be Frederick of Krildentutinly ant Agatha of Wildothaim—or Agatha Filig& and Frederick Ftibutg.
