Corps struck their tents yes terday morning, and marched in two Divisions, the one under the command of Colonel MANNING HAM, the other under the command of Lieut.-Col. STEWART, to Bletchington Barracks, where they are to remain the winter.. The Scotch Greys pro ceed to Dorchester, Blandford, Salisbury tic. The Troops that remained here paraded at nine, and presented arms as the Carriages. of thi' Rayal Va_ mily passed. The Royal Berkshire Militia, under: the command of Colonel VANSITTART, marched this morning in two Divisions, on their route to Winchester, the one commanded by Lieut..Coh RAVENSHAW, the other commanded by Major Py K. The North Devon Militia remain here the winter ; and the York Hussars come into Barracks to-day. The average Price of Sugar, computed from the returns made for the week ending the soth day of September 1 801, is Faqy-eighe Shillings and Six Pence Farthing per hundred weight. • - • • • - ;- -• I EE TI /E Drug,Lane. - On Saturday evening The Merchant / Vepice was very well performcP.t this Theatre; bel:1-e, a very rr.speftable Audi nee. KEMites merii Shylock has long been, nknowledged. He gave the charaAer, on Saturday night, all his usual of ea and discrimination, but we sometimes thought that in particular parts, he was rather too forcible for ,the supposed age of the Jew. The other charaEters were all most respectably filled. j , .] Covent-Garden. E high wrought expedation of the Public on the return• of Mrs. BILLIN6TON to the English Stage, was amply gratified by her appearAnce on Saturday last at this Theatre, in the Opera-of Ar_ taXerxes, after an absence of seven years. The charader of Mande:rm., in the Airs and the recitatives, afforded full scope for her powers, and these potvers were exerted with wonderful died. MIS:RILLINGTON possesses so great a genius for her arr, and such a well-groundcd knowledge of it, that her journey to Italy, though it is con sidered as the ,favourite region of, Music, could hardly bc,expeded to contribute . much to the provement of her talents. Her voice, however, is certainly more strong, , and its compass in creased, particularly in the upper notes. Ner exe cution of the most difficult divisions is as rapid and as distinct a's any instrumental performance. In this her great excellence. consists. She is not, 'however, inattentive to expiaesion, and while she charms the ear by the sweetness of her 'tones - , endeavours also to interest the feelings. The airs in which she was encored were " If o'er the cruel tyrant Love," " Let not rage, thy bosom firing," and, " The. Soldier tir'd of war's alarms." The moment the symphony of the last air began, the Audience trust into a shout of applause, as if it bore some relation to the happy restoration of Peace. It is certainly no exaggeration of Mrs. BIL LING.TON'S merit to say, that altogether the Airs were never given with a greater degree of musical excellence. In the popular hrtrvura of. " The' Soldier tired," though it has been so often sung, and though so niany Performers have decorated it with new graces, she contrived to give it with augment ed novelty without, any fantastic deviatioris from the original compoiltiou. Instead of " Fly'soft ideas, fly," she introduced a new bravura, purposely composed to slim the extent of her voice, and the facility of her execution. It is but justice to say, that s he is very much improved in her action and general demeanor: There is an impressive grace and dignity in her manner, aPproliriate to the higher province of 'the Opera. Her person is more embonpoint than it was, but not unpleasingly so. We never Saw a face in which, after a space of seven years, TIME had passed so lightly. She looks indeed as juvenile as ever: The house was thronged at an early period, and the audience received her with the warmest marks of welcome. - INC L2DON came through Arbaces .in a manner very creditable to his talents, considering how little suited he is for heroic charader3, and songs cut of the Ballad line. He gave the recitatives with great expression 'and feeling, and sung the airs with considerable skill and taste. INCLL•DON' was encored in " `'Vier parted," and HILL, who performed Ar,axerxef, had the same success in the Air of " In Infancy our hopes and fears.". TowrsEND acquitted himself ,in a very respeaa ble manner in Artabanes, though the Aits are cer tainly :above his powers. Mr. \VETCH:4 L displayed admirable taste, judgment, and instrumental excellence in leading the Band. His excellence indeed, in the sicond movement of the overture,- was so conspicuous, that for the first time, we belieVe, , it• was encored. He also particularly distingnishea,himself in the' sym phony to the new liripivirg; : coMposed by BIANc H I. The Audience, throughout fhe Piece, were I:MC.0111- mo* attentive, and bestowed their applause with a fervent liberality. . Mrs. CRAWFORD, once so deservedly celebrated as an A&ress, has preferred some -claims to a share in the Dublin Theatre, founded upon rights derived from her first husband, Mr. BARRY. There are other claims also, which, whether right.or wrong, are at present said to be insuperable obstacles to a sale of the property. Mr..St Doom, it is said, is intended wholly for the' Tragic or Sentimental Province of •the Drama. He is an intelligent, well,-educated young man, and possesses very respeetable literary talents. • A grave Physician on Saturday night listening to the bird notes of Mrs. BILLINGTON'S Bravura, observed that it was impossible she should live long as she appeared to have the thrushes in hir throat. The Will of the late Mr. ROBERTSON, of Stock well, was set aside by his relations in the Court of Chancery, owing to an informality, in drawing it up; and the large fortune intended for the purpose of ereeting a Botanic Garden, is divided among - his family. All his stock of fine plants were sold last week. Two Chargers were purchased on. Thursday for zgo Guineas; for the use of the FIRST Cox . suL. The. expoit of English horses to France is con siderable..

'lt is stated that no sale is to be by samples., Last Tuesday evening, as Mr. Jones,cdoper,,was returning from Hadleigh to Sudbury, in a cart, 'a flash of lightning struck him and his child, which . equally affeCled his horse. SO violent was the shock, that himself and child were both thrown' , out of the cart, and remained for some time insensible. When Mr. Jones recovered - himself, he found his horse down, and the cart turned upcp him ; but providen_ daily no further injury was sustained, than being severely bruised. , ' • - •-•,` 3c. , . . . . , •: WE learn from the lloc-Ite; thil: the. r ".* T roops; who were. to . evacuate .//0 , 7,:•,•,,!, !'a , ..;" ceived Counter-orders, iiil that they r, - main in the Republic during the Meeting of the Assemblies convoked- by the Direaory for the cepcance. of the ConstituLion.

The Vote ;Of Barnberg repeat's the Reservations and Protestations made in t 757, in order to trtain-, tain the: right (:1 precedence . over the Grand Mas-, ter of the. Teutonic Order. After this declaration,. His Highness expresses a desire, that the three.

The Minister of Brunswick he-d not yet voted: That of Mentz declared, in the last sitting; that hc should wait until the approaching. opening of the Protocole. The Conclusum, it was suppos:d, woidd be drawn up by .the end of the week. Among the different Votes, three distinct opinions may be re marked.' The first tends to empower His Imy MAJESTY alone to terminate the work of PeaZe.--: -According to the second, :the Affair of Intiemuties should be decided by the Diet and a Corkirnittee of its Members. The third is, in favour ap. pointing an Extraordinary Deputation, vested wiiii unlimited powers. -It appears, that the latter opiniOn will prevail ; in which case, it is asserted; that the Deputation will be assembled at the City of Augsburgh. • AIX, SEPT. 17.—A few days ago, JEROME BONAPARTE, the yoUngest of the First Consul's Brothers, passed through this,place on his was- to Paris. Ike had sailed with the Squadron under Admiral GANTHEAUME. He stated, that the . So;- diers and,Sailors had suffered a great - deal during the Expedition, from the want of water and provi sions ; and it was bad weather alone, which pre . _ vented the. landing of the Troops on the Coast oi .
