The Officer commanding —.

The Honourable General Taylor, lately appointed to the
6th Carbinerrs, arrived at Cork ow a visit to his registreak,
which he reviewed on Thursday.
On Monday arrived at Portsmouth the transports Bril-
liant and Loyal "triton, Lieut. T. J. Ley, ►gent, front Hali-
fax, with a few distressed British aubjects, and returned
stores.—Ow Thursday arrived the Fanny tramport, from
Malta, with recruiting parties from the 36th rrgt. and some
sick soldiers o. board. She left Malta the sth of ♦ugust.
The flank companies of the 80th regiment embarked at
Gibraltar on she 451 alt. on board his Majesty's ship Seringa-
paeans (having Sir Thomas Maitland on board) and sailed
on the same day for Malta. The 75th rent. was daily ex-
pected at Gibraltar from the lorries Islands : on their ar-
rival the remainder of the 80th regiment would proceed to
Malta.

The following is as ettriet of ft letter, dated
Buenos Ayres, 19th July :
" The last accounts from the army under General San
Martin state, that its progress had been much retarded by
the effect of the climate, on the troops; on the other band,
the inactivity of the Royalists is a wrong proof of their
consciousness of inferiority and want of confidence in the
soldiery. Notwithstanding the languid character which
the conduct of the campaign bar assumed, all the proba-
bilities are in fs of the Independent cam*. Here, as
well as in the other politic's, the anarchists are losing
round. The Chief of Estes Rios, Ramirvs, was defeated
in hie attempt to obtain polloesslos of Cordova, and after
the discomiture of his troops by the Governor Bedoys, at
the bead of the forces of Cordova, and detachments from
Buenos Ayres and Sonia Pe, be was taken prisoner, and
executed. Carrera is closely pursued, and no doubt en-
serialised of his speedy capture. The province of Salta had
suffered for some years wader the tyrannical sway of
Guemer, its Governor, who lately had commenced Mali-
'diem with Ike nelehbontioft province of Tucuman. Lately,
however, the municipality of Salta took courage, sad de-
posed Guenses; be attempted to resist, bet received a
musket ball through his body, which put an end to his life.
It is said that Glances, a Spanish Chief, displeased at the
deposition of the Viceroy Petrels, and insulted by the
Royalist G I had arrived at Salts, at the ►ead
of SOO men, and entered into eirgoeiations with the Illosici-
pslitirs of that tow., and of Turumsu. All these events
will accelerate the meeting of the Congress at Cordova, sad,
it is imbed, restore order and tranquillity, by the appoiat-
merit of s central Currants-no fur the United Provinces of
South America."

Wanstend House, Essex, which is ranked as one
of the most 'magnificent vests its England, we are
credibly informed, will shortly be pulled down,
and ►old in lots ; the costly contents of this noble
establishment will •Ivo be dispersed in the same
manner. Another respectable mansion, but of
greater antiquity, the property of • Noble Mar-
quis, it is reported is also condemned.
NEWPORT, SEPTEMBER 49.—A grund pigeon
match took place on Wednesday last, at the Gorse
Shines Inn, Northwood, between Mr. GEORGE
DASIIWOOD, of Whippingharn, and Mr. BUL-
LOCK, sera. (xarnekeeper to G. W•RD, Esq.) for
ten guineas, to shoot at twenty-six birds each;
which was won by Mr. DASH WOOD by two pigeons,
he having killed fourteen, and Mr. li. twelve.

A Correspondent in the Wisidsor Express com-
plains, that while such gigantic efforts are making to
propagate the Christian religion abroad, it should
be so Par neglected at home, tbut iu a parish church
not two miles from Windsor, on Sunday se'unight,
during the performance of divine seivice, a set of
children were seem, around the Cumntur►to❑ table
without any person to see that they behaved de-
' crony, fur they we►e doing little else but pulling
each other's hair, pinching, eating apple., &c. &e.
At the late meeting at Manchester, respecting the
circulation of local notes, Mr. BILADSHAW, of
IViiraley, stated shut lie paid large sums in wages,
that his annual exp►nditure was at least three hun-
dred thousand pound*, and if local motes were suf-
fered to circulate, he should be obliged, iis his own
defence, to issue notes likessise, and lie should hate
a andltun in circulation.

I. mak. 110 doubt but your regular' correspondent
from Celine hie: informed you of the time and
manner of his Britannic Majesty landing there :
he *as ansioitsly expected here yesterday, and the
French Government had adopted every measure
which could possibly insure his Majesty the eccom-
modetion and bottoms doe to his rank. The In-
spector General a the Poste had provided this
place with en additional supply of post horses, and
yesterday the garrison of Bergues (with the ex-
ception only of the men on duty), which consisted
of the 22.1 regiment of infantry, and also two aquae
drens of the 6th regiment of &agent's, marched in
here to receive his %Nest, with military parade,
The avant couriers, which passed through this town
very early this morning, said, his Majesty had slept
the preceding night at Calais; sod might :he ex-
pected here at 2 o'clock, p. to. The Marquis
de Jumillac, Commander-in-Chief of the De-
partment du Nord, passed through about one,
and gisee.his commends to the field officer on duty
here. The infiutry then proceeded to line the
street, and the road about a mile in length. forming
" use heie." as they term it; about 20 yards aeon-
der, while the grenadier companies and the dragoons
formed the guard of honour. About half-past two
o'clock this afternooi) his Majesty's carriage enter-
ed the town, and proceeded through the streets at a
foot pace. The soldiers presenting arms es his Ma-
jesty passed. then formed into file and followed the
carriage—port arms. When the carriage arrived
at the Post aux Chevalier, the grenadiers presented
arms, and the cavalry rendered similar honours.
The hoists were all in readiness; the fronts of all
the houses were filled by ladies, and • great con-
course were assembled round the post-house.
There were several English present, who took off
their hats, and which was followed by the French
in view of the royal carriage. Admiral Winthorp
and Captain M‘Killop, Royal Navy, were the only
British officers present, nod with their lab's
approached the royal carriage. Dos Majesty iin-
mediately let down the siudow and bowed to the
officers ori duty; he took much notice of the Ad-
miral's fine children; and entered into converoaion,
with real condescension and kindness, with Admind
Winthoep hod Captain M'Killop. There was •
general expression of respect from the English, of
God bless your Alajest)! May your Majesty
enjoy • 'angered happy reign !' To which the King
replied by thanks, most feelingly uttered, acd re-
peated obeisances. Dos Majesty looked extremely
well, clear, and well bronzed by the see bre. z
his eyes bright, and lie appeared in very eared spi.

to receive wares and sincere congratulations an hi.
own old English) language where he little expected
it. for there are very few English residents here.
Nine English cheers., to which the French salted a
cordial chorus, were the final salute. The Mayor
and all the Authorities were present. stud saluted;
and it mu-t not be omitted, that, from amidst the
French clergy. one gentleman stepped forward,
and, io good English, said lie was happy on his
native soil to thank his Majesty. which he
did with sincere gratitude, on behalf of Isis
brethren and himself, 'fur the support end pro-
tection they had received in Enelrnd, end he
devoutely prayed that Isis Majesty might enjoy ■
long and happy reign. This unaffected address
beamed into the Kiug'e eyes, while he thanked
the gentleman in the most cordial manner for his
good wishes. The carsiage drove off at • foot pare,
as if to say. his Majesty would willing tarry awhile
if his duties did not call hint away. It was delightful
to think that this fine country should be the scene
of so much cordiality, which is more congenial to
the smiling fields sod verdure around this place,
than the horrors and devastations of war. In Isis
Majesty's carriage were the Marquis Conynghsoi,
Lord Greases, and Doctor liisighion. The Duke
of Wellington and Merging. of Londonderry slept
here on Monday eight, and set off next morning
early for Brussels. Sir Edmund Nagle, Sir An-
drew Bernard, end LIM Francis Conynghain, fol-
lowed his Majesty in another c.srrieer. The royal
party would .leep to-night at Lille, and would
reach Brussels on Thursday.

It is mid BM the finuileiAl quarter ending the
10th instant, will exhibit a large surplus of revenue
above the corresponding quarter of last year.—The
increase, it is added, is chiefly in the Excise.
A letter from Capt. NORFOLK, of the Hyperion,
which has arrived from Bombay, says—" On the
fl3d of last month we fell in with two of bird
COCHRANE'S Squadron sfP the Cope dr. Verd
Islands. We kept company with them for about ten
boors, but it was blowing so hard all the time,
that we could receive no stews from them. We
were separated during the night, and afirrwtirds
saw no more of them." Capt. Noarotx, it is
said, has brought over the loitered car of BONA..
PA RTE, and hivimannscriptsV 'sealed up and addr.ssed
to Sir HUDSON LORE.

On MOniby W. HUMPHREY. Esq. was elected
Mayor of Chichester (it being the second time of
his filling this office). W. RIDGE, Esq. the re-
tiring Mayor, entertained the Body Corporate with
an eleg,ant dinner at the Council-house. We re-
gret to state that the herlth"of his Grace the Duke
of Ricsistom (High Steward of the cit)) pre-
vented his attendauct at the civic banquet, though
he attended the election in the morning, Find also.
with the accustomed liberality of his noble 'hove,
furnished the table with venison.

On Friday last a Court-martial was held at
Portsmouth on board the Queen Charlotte (Captain
HAY, President), for the trial of Mr. IL L. Foao,
a Supernumerary Surgeon of the Salisbury, ou a
charge al drunkenness, preferred against l by
Capt. WiLsort, of th it ship. The ofii•ur•e impot-
ed to him was proved. l-lis defence was cutiductrd
by Mr. MINCHIN, who made an able appeal to the
Court in tnitiguion, and, in consequence of ti.e
high testimonials elven by Captain Luang, of the
Navy, and Dr. NIORTIMER, of flaslar I•lospital,
and also on account of his long services in the Navy,
chiefly in the West Indies, the Court 'sentenced
