The -Hamburg': Correspt:nderiten; has at lenTth
ventured to mention.the affairs of. Spain, and in an
article dated from Paris, to observe, that although
" the sudden energy of the Frenth army has sue.;
ceeded in quelling the insurrethon in the Wes‘ern
and Northern parts of the Empire, yet that; from •
motives., of huthanity, and commiseration ;ter the
momentary pain of mistaken friends, they, had nor '
penetrated into those distrids in the South and
North-west not previously occupied, depending ra,
ther for the restoration of order to the-impressive and
grand speaacle of their new King seated amongst
them, and surrounded by the most eminent and vir-.
tunas of his people, than ,to.a painful appeal to Mi.-
litary

Last week, while excavating the extensive reser-
voir for. the Colchester. Water-works, in Balcon-
rane, close'to the town walls, t:he workmen

and earthen pipes of peculik coustruClion for The .

Dobti., the Engineer; but we are sorry to sitav they
greater part. was mutilated by the pickaxes of
workmen, as the-ground,in th tt prt was of <9 very„
dense quality,' and'unforttinately the workmen, be-4
ingemployed by contract at so much per yard f,'ur
excavating, had n 6 disposition to spend the neces-
sary • titue,in'iligging out with-care these ran- 'speili-
.•mens. of antiquity. It is almOst unnecessary to
add, as it is known to e-yeryl; antiquarian), that
Colchester was .one of the most eonsi!etable • and
principal stations the Romans. had... when' in. this
country.

The enemy in Portugal have now been furnished.
with the opportunity which they said they desired so
ardently, but which we siksped they will not desire a
second time—re We want to Iry these English in the
field," said JusoT in one of his Pfoclamations:! His
Wishes have been gratified—he has tried these Erig-
lish in the field, and, he, has found that they are the
same as on the ocean ; that_ whether ashore or aft)at,
they. are,a match for any force he can bring against
them.

It was yesterday reported that Vice-Admiral Puke,
of the Swedish Navy, had come tb Long-reach ;:
but the brave Admiral, we believe, has too good a
stomach for fighting against the enemies of his coun-
try for this news to be true.
Mrs. SIDDONS, we find, notwithstanding the
great addition to her fortune, readily comi:s forward
again to support the interests of a Theatre in which
her brother has so large a share.. is probtble,
however, that, though her talents retain their-
wonted force and splendour, she will take 11,:r fare-
well of public life, in the ensuing season.

Since the arrival of the Prince of WALES and his
suite. at the seat of the Marquis of HEwrFoan, the
utmost gaiety has prevailed there. A series of enter-
tainments have been given in a style of almostmnri-
valled magnificence and taste. Seldom less than
from twenty to thirty per Sons have, each/ day, sat
down to table. Coursing Ahd shooting occupies the
attention of the visitors in the morning, and music
or cards in the evening. '
On Monday last a labouring man at •Newlands,
near Appleby, whilst in a violetit passion, aiming a
blow at his Wife, struck a child in -her arms with
such force, that by the severity of the stroke it died
soon after; since which he has absconded.
PUBLIC-OFFICE, HATTuN-GARDEN.—John Bow-
den, the diver of a caravan belonging to an eminent
Wine-merchant in the City, was charged, at the in-
stance of the Proprietors of Hyde Park and Kensing-
ton Trusts,- witn violently assaulting and beating
Richard Workman, one of their Collettors, and
driving the horse and caravan over him, on his re-
turn from Oatlands. He was ordered by the Magis-
trates to find bail to take his at the Sessions ; but
upon expressing his sorrow for the (4ence, the Pro-
prietors of the Gate relinquished any further pro-
secution, upon his making the Collector a pecuniary
satisfaction.

GUILDHALL.—A. Nahomedan, who vends rhu-
barb in the streets, named Abraham Betaley, was
.committed for trial on a charge of sacrilege. He
had secreted himself in St. Ann's Church, Alders
gat e-street,and cn qutstianing him how be came there,
he replied, that he fell asleep, and was locked in ;
but there appearing something bulky about him, he
was searched, and the Clergyman's surplice was
found wrapped round him.
MA RLBO ROUGII-STR EET.YesterdayßogerCroorne
was charged with receiving a considerable quanti.
of goods from Manchester, Birmingham, &C. under
false pretences. It was sworn that the had
obtained several articles of merchandize at a imrticu-
lar rate, and had sold some of them afterwards at an
inferior price. The Magistrate, however; onierved,
that the transaEtion had taken place in the City, that
therefore it was out of his jurisdiaion.

EXECLTION OF 1114/OR CdMPBELL.

kURTUER PARTICULARS.

.. Our Readers are already in possession of the trial
and comfictinti,ot, this untortunaje Gentleman, and
recommendatory Metnorills which were addressed
to the Lord •Lie.,,ule.)atit in hi, twt-ialf: On -this oc-
casion his Grace declined decid,nig,, but sent the en-
tire documents, with the Judg,v's Notes, to the
King, .and on the 16tit, sent a Special 'Messenger,
with a further respite till .tne 24111. MAjor-Cinup-
bell pas4ed the painful interval, as may be imagined,
in a state of extreme anxiety, -agitared between con-
tending hopes and tears ; but receiving all the con-
solation which .atteaionate friendship and .commise-
ration could bestow.

On the 23d '-(Tuesday. sennight), about four
o'clock in the- evening, 'a• second Messenger arrived
at Armagh; with the fatal•tidings, that the King's
pleasure .was • unfavourablet hat` his -Grace could
interfere no longer--and - that the awful seutenee
must take place next day. Early on-Wednesday
morning, another Messenger arrived from the Castle,
with an. order to remit • that • part of the. sentence
with ,respect to the anatonnsing and dissecting -his
body. . .

: The Sheriff sent him. a message, .to fix-his,own
.hour ; and he chose between eleven and twelve
o'clock in-the day.

The itcv. Mr. Ball, the Curate of Armagh Church,
remained with hint-the whole of the nigut ; and we
are 4.,formed, that too mach cannot be said for this
Gentleman's humane concern tor him, during his
unhappy state.. The Major was-attentive to his re-
ligious duties, and was well prepared to. meet his
fite with the greatest firmness of mind ; and the
night before his execution, he settled all Ins money-
accounts with the gdoler,. with .the greatest corn-
potiore.

- Shortly belOre his execution, when the Sheriff's
attendants-waited on him to confine, his 'arms, he
observed to them, that ". it was very proper, it
would prevent him front struggling;"ndding, " that
he thought he. would have died a more honourable
death; but, since this was his fate, .he woul& sub-
mit him Sell to the laws."—He then walked firmly
up stairs to the execution room—took ott' his neck
handkerchief, put it in his breast, and opened his
neck, stol,ing tlis bead to the executioner to re-
ceive. the halter, which he complinned was too thick,
and that a smaller one would he more.effetinat..
He prayed most fervently to Heaven for himself;
and that his poor wi:e and children might ne pro-
te,..ted, He then bade fare:well to the people in the
rooW, and with the most bec.oming fortitude,- stepped
out on the
.criop, and saluted the.peoi,le on.
every side of him. He spoke:a:few Words in, the
Earse language, to the soldiers,
,which was under 7;
stood to be de.,iring thean to pray_, for him. He,
asked a tew Moments longer : he was told to takehis .
ok% n thne. lle again repeated a fervent • prayer,
for his wite arid family—drew down,the capover
his face—clenched his ivan;is firm Ati each other,.
and was .then removed from this world to eternity,!
He strug4ted a short time; and atter hanging 3.5
ininutos-was Out down, and hi body given to his.
k.'nds. put it into a codin, wniCh w'as eat
oloseci- in a 'deal bok, and inunea.;..ttetv hem otl 'Ott a
car tor Dona;oadee. The body is to be int'ened
at
