COVENT GARDEN.

The subject of the Pantomime produced at this Theatre is
taken fiom a less distant resource than the preceding. Its
name will explain both its nature and its plot. It is called
Whittin!rton and his Cat, and the story recorded in our civic
annals. is faithfully followed, until after the future Lord
Mayor is turned into Harlequin, when the usual round of
tricks and escapes ensues. The scenery is varied and beau-
tiful. The storm in the environs of London, with the
subsequent rising of the Sun, and the peals of bells pro-
claiming, " return again Whittington, thrice Lord Mayor
of London," produce a very striking effect. The trip to Paris
affords three correct views of the Porte St. Denis, the Pont-
neuf, and the Boulevard;. On returning to England, the exhi-
bitions-in the Palk during the Fete for Peace, are reproduced
with renovated splendour. I mitead of Mr. Sadler, however,
we have Mr. Garneliti's Balloon, with the additiOn of Ma-
demoiselle Blanche Garnetin's descending in- a 'Parachute
from the opening in the ceiling over the pit. We'then have.
the illuminated Pagoda. the Temple of Concord and most
brilliant fire-works. The whole concludes with the Hall of
Industry, and an allegorical representation of Whittington
as Lord Mayor of Londor. The tricks in this Pantomime
are too numerous to be described, and display both much
humour and ingenuity. It was received with the most un-
bounded applause.

The scandalous delusion which has for several Months dis-

stupid disregard to their own welfare, taken with such ear-

The tide in the river was remarkably high on Wednesday.
Soon after two o'clock the water flowed over the piles at
iars-bridge ; the wharfs were inundated, and business
suspended during an hour. It rose so high at the tmporary
bridge by the Strand-bridge, as to leave no room for boats
,to pass through. There is a court in Narrow-wall, called
Linsetree-couit, containing about twenty houses, inhabited
by hard working people ; this place was laid under water.
The inhabitants were washed out of the ground floor, and
. confined to the first story. The water forced through the
• houses above the Green Dragon in Pedlar's-acre, with rapi-
dity, and made the way impassable ; but passengers found
the most interruption on the bank by Lambeth palace.
TEere was one sheet of water from the end of Bishop's-walk
to Latnheth church. Watermen attended with their wherries,
.and conveyed persons across to the church. The flood ex-
tended along the bank to Vauxhall.
The fall of water has been' very great from the heights of
Windsor; part of the Park is flooded. Two fat oxen were
c-ivied' down the stream through the arches of IVindsot-
bridge, and, the current being very strong, they were not
able to let on shore till they came to a mill' a consiiterable

NORWAY.

We have had advices from Norway, with a paper published
in that country in the Danish language, comprehending some
further modifications of the Constitution formed in May,
when she declared herself independent, but bearing a near
resemblance to it. The paper contains an introduction,
stating generally the authority over the two Kingdoms as
vested in the reigning Sovereign of Sweden. This is fol-
lowed by a recapitulation of the principal articles of the for-
mer Constitution, classed under the respective heads of Re-
ligion, the Royal Family, the-Diet, Commerce, &c. &c. and
two new articles are superadded, by the one of which a Na-
tional Rank is to be established exclusively for Norway, and
by the other it is provided, that the flag for the purposes of
trade shall be distinguished as the ancient Norwegian ban
tiers; but that the ilae for the concerns of war shall be those
of Norway and Sweden united. The fundamental law is
then recognised in a short letter- from the Swedish Commis-
sioners, in which they accept the Constitutkn in the name
of their Monarch: and the whole is closed by a Declaration
of the Line of Succession, which is determined in favour of
John Charles (Bernadotte) and Oscar his sort, on the demise
of the p eseat occupant of the throne.

On Monday Shakespeare's play of the Tempest, with Dr3den
Kembte's alterations, was performed for the first time this seasoit.
We believe it is in general thongiet these alterations are great
provements of the original, but must confess we are of a contra
opinion.

Mr. Young's Prospero was characterised as his perfsrmances

ST. DOMINGO.

The statement lately derived from the Jamaica papers, that
the Island of St. Domingo had returned under the dominion
of France, turns out, as expected, to be utterly unfouncled.•
M. fluxion Lavaysse, the commksioner sent by the French
government, on his arrival in the island. addressed M. Petion
in specious language, but without effect, as that Chief has
since published a decree encouraging the trade between ITacti
and Great Britain, by lowering the duty on ISt itish manufac-
tures five per cent. while those of all other nations pay ten
per cent.—Towards Christophe, it appears, M. Lavaysse ern-
ployed arguments of the most menacing and insolent nature.
The folk ving ate some of the paces in his letter:—" I ern
persuaded, you have too sound a judgment, too enlightened
an understanding, and too noble a disposition, not to be sa-
tisfied with becoming a great nobleman and a general ntEcer.
under that antique dynasty of the Bourbons, which Provi-
dence, as if in contempt of all human calculations, seems to
delight in perpetuating on the throne of our dear France.—

But it does not appear that these arc all the benefits likely
to be derived flow the residence of the Court of Portugal at
the Brazils. The following details will prove not only how
much her India and China trade has increased, but that there
exists a possibility that the India Company will not be inter-
rupted in this monopoly of their trade to Canton.
The Portuguese intercourse with the East Indies is vet"►
much extended. Formerly only two or three ships were
employed in the China, and double that number in the
Bengal trade. Now we arc informed that there are 12 ships
engaged in one and 24 in the oilier.
A valuable interchange has been made at the eastern-and
western extremities of the globe. The Maranliam Cotton,
cultivated so abundantly in the Brazils, has been transplan eA
into the East Indies, and the experiment has been attend/4
with great success. Under the patronage of :be Prime
Minister Aranjo, a number of tea plants with Chinese garde-
ners, have been imported into the Brazil, and the plantations
formed under their management afford every prospect of*
rich harvest from that important vegetable. The decoction
prepared from this exotic is said to be equal to that produced
from the commodity on its native soil.

CHARGE OF MURDER,
MANSION HOVSE.—Wecimesday Captain Finney, of the country
ship Caroline. from Bombay, appeared before the Lord Mayor,
and underwent a second examination charged is WI having caused the
death of a quartermaster warned Butler Join,, on board the said
ship, on the passage front India to Europe.
One of the principal points of the defence set np was, that in con-
sequence of the Captain having assigned some task to he perfumed
by the Serang, which the latter not conceiving to be Ilk elute, re-
sisted. This excited a difference between the Captain and the'Sc-
rang. and eventually between the former and the ship's crew, who,
on their arrival in England, Rent in a body to the owners of the ship
to prefer complaints against the Captain.
To prove this fact, and the presumption cf malice' ag-,inst the
Captain, J. Cove, a Lascar, deposed that he was beat, kicked, and
tied up by the Serene, in consequence of his not ernei-:,:. teirward
to give evidence against the Captain, upon the occasion ()flits first
examination. The Serang, however, was not displewed on account
of his unwillingness to give evidence against the Captain merely ;
but in consequence of his refusing to come with the ship's crew as a
body, and state fairly his knowledge of the transaction.
The investigation occupied nearly the whole of the day, and the
Lend Mayor having heard a number of observations ma the Solici-
tor of Captain Finney, in defence, said, that he considered the case
one of considerable moment, and he could not from the jarring evi-
dence which distinguished it. dismiss it hastily, or•witboat tunic. se-
rious inqniry. His Lordship, therefore, ordered all the depositions
of the several witnesses to be written out ; and as the evidence was
given in so many languages, he wished proper interpreters to be in
attendance, when the examnations already gone through would be
read over and sworn to upon the next hearing, which was appointed
for Monday, the 16th inst. In the mean time, his Lord-hip felt it
necessary to demand security for the appearance of Captain Finney
upon that day. This was immediately entered into, between two
respectable persons, and the Captain was suffered to depart.
Msristosr-Housr.—A fellow, named Walker, who had been charg-
ed on a former occasion with steslintt various parcels front different
coaches, and against wh-m proceedings had been stayed upon cerii-
lion of his going into a condemned regiment, was yesterday again
brought up, having deserted the depot of 'Le regiment. His former
prosecutors now appeared against hint iu consequence of his having
broken the conditions upon which they had perntiJ-d bon to he dis-
charged. A charge was then preferred against the • r for steal-
ing a parcel front the Bristol •Jach on the night of the -lib of Decem-

which was fitting for sea at Portsmouth, New Hampshire,
when the last accounts came away, was intended to join the
Washington of the same force, and the Constitution fi otn
Boston, off Cape Cod. This they think they will be enabled
to accomplish by taking advantage of the first N W.
wind; for, by a reference to the chart, the tun from Boston
to the Cape is but 50. and from Portsmouth about 90 miles.
The junction effected of the Independence and the Wa.hing.
ton ships of the line, the Constitution frigate and some smaller
vessels, they imagine they will be able to shape their course
unmolested to New London. Here we had, when the last
letters were received, four sail including one or two men of war.
This squadron they hope to cripple, so as to be enabled to
raise the blockade and thus release the United States, the
Macedonian, and the Hornet, thus forming suddenly, a squa-
dron which they think will he more than able to encounter
any united force we may have at sea.
It will stand thus :

FURTHER PATICUTARS OF TIER DEATH AND
DISSECTION.

We have already inserted two letters. containing an account of
the death of this poor old woman, on Tuesday sentlight. It is cer.
tainly disagreeable to us to enter into any details connected with so
disgraceful and disgusting an M4)0%11111.. as has been practised upon
tare weak and superstitions, by ilio•e ti.opie who pretended to lie the
believers in the marvellous stories respecting tins wretched creature.
We feel it necessaiy, however, to ounce some circumstances, as the
:flatter has occe.sitmed so much public talk ; and its the hope that the
recorded failure of the bold and blasphemous predictions of knases
sod idiots may be the means of preventing 1 (...r.ng attempts of a Si.
miiar description in future, it appears, then, that when this wo•
nuts breathed her last, she was attended by the fellow caned fee
Chief Priest, Tozer; her Secretary, and pat Ocular friend, AIIII Ur-
(IC111'0011 ; alai two or three persons, to !le people of rendition.
For some hours previous to her dissolutioe, die was iewensilale; but
before the near approach of that event, she seemed to he suinew;:at
sensible of lief danger, although her bigoted proselytes continued
riim in then belief that her indisposition Was merely preliminary to
that birth. to which they all looked with such blind devotion. A
surgeon, Mr. Want, of Tottenham com t road, lozi: first the credit
of awakening joallll3 to a doubt oilier immortality. Mr. Want was,
wider the sanction of the Prophetess, called in by Mr. Reece aboet
seveu weeks back. Ik' then stated it to be his opinion, that

Talleyrand, it seems, is looking on with great tranquillity,
and, when the principle of aggrandizement shall hwe been
fully acted upon with, regard to the Allies, it is said be
means to urge the ' justice of its being extended to France,
and of her obtaining possession of the Rhine as her boundary.
His incipal object was to sow disunion and to side with
either party for a time, so that he might enable. himself
eventualy to succeed. This he appears to have dune.—But
Naples forms a sort of stumbling block. The liourbons vote
for the restoration of their relatives. We. it seems, with
Austria, wish to keep Murat on his throne. However, on
this subject we feel easy in leaving the cause of Italy to its
own people. In the meanwhile a project for a sort of Ger-
manic union has been put forth. It will, we apprehend, go
to "the tomb of all the capulets."

SIR J. DUFF.

Mr. WIIITBREAn rose for the purpose of calling the attention of
the House to the comitylt of General Smith and Sir James Doff, and
of submitting a motion upon the subject, pursuant to his notice.
(The circumstances tinder which this motion became necessary, were
these—two Spaniards, tinned Correa and Poigblanch, becoming
obnoxious to the Government—the former by writing a letter to
Ferdinand, begging him to recollect that despotic power was not

THE NATIONAL REGISTER.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NATIONAL REGISTER.

SlR—About a month previous to the total defeat of Buo.
siaparte and his armies by the allies (and the happy change
resulting from it), I sent you his nativity, at the time I sup:
posed he was born, with my opinion thereon, that he would
shortly experience a total overthrow of his army, if not
death itself (and at that time he was gaining advantage over
the allies). Surely no one could be so presumptuous as to say
he would be so obstinate and blind to his own interest (even
admitting the former part of my prediction to have takes
place), as not to accept the terntt offered him, as the only
alternative to secure him on the throne of France. As you
gave insertion to my former letter, I intended sending this
sooner, but my employment in another way prevented me.
I have calculated the most important directions of his na-
vity, and whatever fears he may be under in respect to his
personal safety, it's my decided opinion his life may be pro-
tracted till his 59th year, when he has such a train of evil di-
rections operating, as I think cannot fail to cut the thread of
life.

At about 43, fortune seems to have deserted him, his
sun had set. At 44 and about six months the Sun and Wirs
were (from the motion of the Primum Mobile) in a mundane
parallel, tl:e one being posited above, and the other below
the western horizon, which was the ultimate cause of his dis-

tr.ura the port of Emden, directly with foreign countries; they may
have magazines there, and keep their goods, whether for importation
or• exportation, two years without paying du'y ; in their commerce there
they are to pay no other duties than those paid by native Hanoverian
subjects; and the turif of these duties will be axed in common, raid can
newer be altered by one of the piirties separately.

" Prussia will have two military roads from the Old March and from
IlJgdeburgli to Minden, through the Hanoverian territories; and Ha-
nover one, from Osnabruck over lbhenbuerin and the Rhine to Hol-
land, through the Prussian territories."

Extract of a letter from a Captain in the Ist Battalion of
Marines, dated the 18th of January, off St. Mary's, Georgia.
lorought by a vessel arrived at Cork :

"The two battalions of Marines, with those of the squa•
4ron, and two companies of Black troops, landed on the 10th,
and with the assistance of a naval force, drove the enemy
from the fort defending the entrance of St. Mary's, a consi-
clerable town, which, with a quantity of tobacco and cotton,
has been captured.''

The writer adds, " This is a severe blow to the Yankies,
as it was the depot for the only export trade they had left.
Colonel Williams, of the Ist battalion, commanded the
troops."
