in any degree, and to enter into an arrangement which would
be tantamount to the payment of a composition'of so much in
the pound. It is on these grounds that the recent reduction of the
6 Per cents., though it did not involve a breach of the public
faith, and though it suited very well the financial views and
OPerations of the Government, can have no other than an in-
jurious effect upon the productive industry and commercial
transactions of the people. It is surprising that any portion of
the People should still support the delusive theories which arc
oPposed to this unanswerable hypothesis. It is surprising,
above all things, that any part of the landed and agricultural
interest should be induced to look for a remedy to their difficul-
ties in diminished expenditure and contracted markets !

The Anniversary of his MAJESTY'S Coronation
will be commemorated by various fetes and re-
Joicings.
Yesterday his MAJESTY took an airing in his
Pivate carriage in the Parks, and called at his
glace in Pimlico.
Yesterday the Duke of YORK transacted mil:-
Lars business with the KING.
The Duchess of GLOUCESTER visited the KING
Yesterday.
On Sunday Divine Service was performed to the
K
Jug's Household, by the Rev. Dr. BLOMBERG.
Extract of a Letter, dated Lisbon, June I._
Yesterday a Council of State was held, at
which it was determined to send 12 battalions
(7200 men) to Bahia, under convoy of one ship
et the line, three frigates, and two corvettes."
The late Marquess of HERTFORD, according to
the.jeort of the time, was supposed -to be the hero of a poem
"
._‘wished about forty years ago, entitled The Diaboliad, writ-
ith all the vigour of CH uric r. and which has been gene-
11.,LIY' attributed to the tleman who has since distinguished
jlalf by humourous wo genrks the first entitled "The Tour
"r• SYN TAX in search of the Picturesque ;" the second " In
search of Consolation" (for the loss of his wife); and the third
QUA
search of a Wife ;" as well as of" The History of JOHNNY
'ZILIE GEN-us, thelittle Foundling of the late Dr.SYNrAx." This
gentleman is also the author of two other Poems—" The Dance of
-eath," and " The Dance of Life," all of which, written at a
~
"erY advanced age, manifest the vigour of his genius, his lin-
ear, and his profound knowledge of human life. If he is also
`"e author of The Diaboliad, written so long ago, it shews the
7!ulety of his powers, as well as the energy in which they con-
"nue to remain.
Letters from Archangel state, that on the 10th
May four foreign vessels had arrived at that
Port, a thing heretofore unheard of so early- in
the yetir ; judging from appearances, the sum-
mer prices were likely to rate lower than the
currency quoted in the winter, which was quite
contrary to the usual course of things.—Advices
from the interior of Russia say they are experi-
encing the most delightful spring weather, full
811 weeks before the usual time.
The Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty
having kindly granted the Lively, Portsmouth
Hoy,
to the Committees of Teignmouth and New-
ton, for the relief of the distressed Irish, for the
purpose of carrying provisions to the sister king-
dom, the above vessel sailed on Saturday se'n-
Light, from Teignmouth to Kilrush, consigned
to the Clare Committee, under the orders of
Lieut. J. NEPEAN, Royal Navy, who kindly vo-1
lunteered his services on the occasion. The cargo
consisted of '420 bags of potatoes, 13 cwt. of
cheese, 55 bags of barley, 47 quintals of New-
foundland fish, and 7 barrels of sounds, pur-
chased with the amount of subscriptions received
by the above Committee. •
A. rich individual of the name of GILLES, at
Nuits, in France, has bequeathed by Will a for-
tune of between four and five hundred thousand
francs (from 18,000/. to 20,0001. sterling) to the
iloSpital at Dijon.
Mr. LEWIS PALESKE, of Dantzio-, landowner,
if,artnerly merchant in London) has recent"; been created a

4-AlXsb-,E, of Dantzig.
e., JOHN WETHERELL HAYS, Esq. has been elect-
`' Alderman

meceu.
A very liberal Subscription, we understand,
t3sfining forward in the parish of Rothbury, Northumberland,
hasward the relief Of the distressed Irish. Newcastle-upon-Tyne
raised something above one thousand pounds.

THE THEATRE.—The new Theatre,Haymarket,
°Pened last night for the regular season n ith the
new farce of The Bill of Fare, which is certainly
4 very whimsical and diverting sketch, and which
was well received.—lt was followed by The
'egear's Opera, in which a young Lady, who is
a Pupil of the elder Courts, made her first ap-
Pearance in the part of Polly. She possesses a
Powerful voice, of a good tone and considerable
°°ropass. She gave the songs with effect and in
sPne was encored. But she is too fond of that
decorative style which is now the fashion of the
Mmes, and which fritters away all simple and
affecting 'melody. Her person is well formed,
41d her manner easy. Her voice is capable
,
great flexibility, but she should not indulge
trself so much in executive embellishment till
!:•Le is more practised in music, and then render
1‘ at all times subordinate to expression.—The
' e\cpcluding piece was Catherine and Petruchio.—
qr. C. KEmuLt,made his appearance in the part
°f Petruchio, and experienced a very gratifying
reception on his entrance. He performed the
Part with admirable spirit and humour, and was
L"11 supported by Mrs. 11. JOHNSTON in the ter-
magant heroine.—The House was well attended,
altogether, but particularly in the Pit and lower
, °xes, and the Performances were so much ap-
plauded that they were announced for repetition.

The Man of the World, in which Mr. H. JOHN-

laking arrangements for the summer season.
tk. letter is received at Yarmouth from Mr.
ci'-',llao-1.13, which states that he had a conference with the
'43•lcti.t.on of the EXCHEQUER, and that little doubt now
remained but that either a drawback would be allowed on cured
that ?i_r home consumption as well as those for exportation, or
80,.e tax would be entirely taken off the salt used in the
