and it is said, that all the officers unemployed have been
invited to go to South America, with a promise of re-
compense proportioned to their services. In general
the troops have shown a dislike to embark, and the
news circulated is by no means suited to give them
ardour.

" The port of Cadiz is at this moment blockadetl,
And nuracrous privateers cruizc at the entrance. A
merchant vessel was nil-en at the moment it was enter-
ing, and carried off by the pirates."

Saturday wereecived the Paris Papers of Wednesday
last. The only interesting part of their contents, is•
the proceedings in the ease of General Cannel against
Senneville and Fabv•Lr. General Cannel himself op-
peured in Court, soliciting a de:ay in the tri.il which,
was accordingly postponed till the Ist Jf nest month..
The General cfterwards surrendered hzn,elf to the.
Judge of Instruction, who, however, permitted him to:
return, house, urn his promise to present himself on
the following day. The speech made by the General is
exceedingly interesting -at ,the present moment, con-'
nested as the afrair.is with the late conspiracy.

It is said in these papers, that Sir I'. Maitland has
arrived at -Genoa in the Glasgow ,frigate from the
lonian Islands. A letter in the 14mrnal du la Belgiyme
reports, that in eav the approaching conferences at
Aix-la-Chapelle should .give rise to a resolution to with-
draw the Allied tr,,ops 'from France, the :different
Sovereigns will review their several contingents; when
•the Austrian force will march homeward through the
Brisgau ; the Prussians by Luxemburg ; the Saxons
and Danes by the shortest route, and the Russians be
conveyed by sea. The Prinecs Metternich and liar-
denberg have hired two spacious houses fur the persons
attached to their respective missions, who, it seems,
will be very numerous. The Duke of Wellington and
Lord rastleroagh are looted for on the part of England,
and the*Duke of Richelieu as French Minister.

The Asiati: Mirror of the 25th of February con-
tains intelligence of the success of General Brown
against the camps of Juswent Rea Bhow, and against
the town of Jwahud, which he took by storm on the
:29th of January. The details of these operations are
not very full, but enough appears to show that the
attacks upon the enemy were combined with skill, and
executed with great intrepidity. We took on these
occasions several guns, and experienced but a triflng
loss in killed and wounded of the army. No accounts
of the general state of the war are communicated
through the above channel.
The French papers contain no further account of the
plot, but, we are glad to see that every thing is in
train for judicial investigation and open trial: it is this
.sort of inquiry zlonc which can either be satisfactory
to the nation at large, or useful for the guidance of the
Government itself; because by this means alone the
whole truth can in any case be elicited. The King's
brother is said to have given orders to all under his
influence, that no individual, however menaced, shall
quit his pest till the course of justice has disclosed the
real delin9nents. It is even said that General Canucl,
who disappeared so mysteriously, ,intended to aoty
himself before the Court of Correctional Police last
Tuesday, when the case of calumny in which he was
plaintiff was to be heard. The next arrivals from
Paris will show whether this extraordinary reappear--
mice took place. Gen. Donadice, who was sent to
• Clermont to review a Swiss regiment, is said to have
met with the usual fate of intemperate zeal; his
friendc -iiistrust him, and suspect that he has toned in-
former. No new arrest has taken place in consequence
of the conspiracy, and only one change among etriciel
men, and that of a somewhae equivocal nature. M.
Kergarion, who had made the nut unfreouent. trans-
fer of opinion from Buonapartism to hiel aristocracy,
has been recallel from an importanteand active function
at Rouen, to be invested with the honourable but less
active appointment of a Councillor of State. In the •
midst of theme disturbances the King has preserved his
calm and discriminating good sense : while he views
with the proper diegust the insane attempts of his pre-
tended frieads, he knows also how to appreciate the-
selfishness of those who seize the first moment of genet.
ral sperm, if not of general derger, for the, purpose o-
displaying their own importance, at the risk of cmlyar-
rassing the Government and distracting the aftections
of the peeple. For this reason, Marshal Marmont is
said to be at present out of favour with his Majesty,
for having, at time very moment of the disclosure of time
plot, made a parade of coming forward to take upon
himself all the blame which General Cantle' (an alleged
accomplice in the conspiracy) had thrown upon the.
Marshal's Aide-de-Camp, about the old story of the
Lyonuese quarrel. Th.s was at least ill-timed, and
equally unworthy of the interestedness of a patriot and
of the generosity of a soldier.

We are happy to see the exertions of' the ntanrger
of this theatre keep pace with his promises. This pas:-
week has again been characterized by the production. of
a new piece under the title of fbct9r Bolnv.—lt is of
the Berlespe species, and efforde,l sal:plc scope fig the
comic talents of Mr. Harley and Nliss Kelly. The
latter we do not -recollect to have seen before in a per-
fit:nuance of this kind, and most heartily congratulat?
11,-r on her personation of Qhce:i kataiinda. It was
indeed the highest essence of the burlesque, and in ea
mad scene, the ludicrous expression of her countenance,
.non vulsed the audience withle ughter. piece Er ishc
with' a dance, which is a burlesque on dame ititroduce,7.
in the finale to the grand ballet of the ihilian Opera.
and the tableau which concludes it, re., it: which all
the dancers assume extravagant attitudes, is among the
-happiest exertion of the performers.—The piece was
received throughout with decided approbation. Miss
Carew and Miss Kelly still continue to render our old
favourite opera of Rovina and the Beggar's Opera, too
attnzetice to make us remember how often we have
seen them—The Indians nightly render &rouse more
attractive than we remember it since the first season
of its representation, maul arc advertised to appear in
the Opera of the Americans, which is to be revived Ihr

shrubbery essumed a new and more elegant form in the
disposition of its trees on Monday .evenn-5 and attracts
crowds of visitors of both sexes, who find the coolness of
the fountains and the shade of the groves the best re•
treat during the unparalleled heat of the weather.
