We praised the work for the balclncss'and originality of
the conception on which the plan was formed; forits coin.
prehensiveness, being commensurate, in a certain sense, with
Nature .tself ; for tile mtive genius and deep 'research with
which the author treats, trithellishes, and eariches the sub,

discusses tupics, Which, under the pen of an ordinary writer,

that is ItrioWn of his chara6lir, to stipposelor a mo-
ment that his sentiments Of' loyalty are not as Chive
as ever, his. having engaged CATALANI can only, Icivo
proceeded from an anxious desire to gratify the pub-
lic, 'end render his new theatre still more attrathve :
but in doing this he is " gilding refitted gold, paint-
ing the violet," and indeed showing a " wasteful
and ridiculous excess,'.'.-- -With.the host of excellent
performers which he possesses, .and with the attrac-
tion of his new theatre,he might have been sure of one
very successful season without CATALAN!, and as he
would hardly
,have thought of engaging her more
than one &.e..son, he,, in fact, throws away,the mo-
ney that is given to tier, and is in danger of forfeiting
that good-opinion which his charaCter has always
maintained in the public mind. For my own part,
Mr. Editor, I am, as t told you before, a quiet,
peaceable, man, and provided I can pay my taxes,
and-have a comfortable meal, -I little care how the
world wags. But my relation JOHN BULL, though
as generous a fellow as ever lived, is very hasty, as
as very patriotic„and when his anger is'once roused:
he is not to be appeased till he has completely
ed his objet?. He is willing that GATALANI
rluiil-
sing at the Opera House, or at private Concept; but
he seems positively determined to oppose her -en-
trance on the boards .of an English Theatre; and I
am really afraid that if the event should absolutely
take place, JOHN will 'give very strong ,ptoofi of
the violence of his temper. • It is said that theiMa-
nager, aware of his itupolicy, in having engaged
her, both on the score of public feeling, and the
useles.s;expence which it will bring upon hint, has
offered her a very large sum to be off the bargain,.
but that she has learned so much of the English
language as to say with Shylock " I will have. my
bond." Ifs°, the matter ought to be,properly
plained to. JoHN' BULL, that,if .the'Manager has in-
deed shewn such a respect for,public.opinion, os: to
make such an offer, no feelings ofresentrnentshooht
be harboured towards him,-whatever limy be thought
of a rapacioo foreigner, who seems to oehpisepub
lie opinion while there is an opportunity or
.drainivg
the public purse,.

THE SUN.

SOLIS& Q'jliS DICZaI lALSIUM. AUDIAT

(IN Q IV,

TUESDAY, AUGUST- 1809.

No intelligence has been received from the Aus-
trian Government, either by
„Ministers or by.,the
Austrian Ambassador, ,of so late as thet I2th-ult•
when the Armistice was concluded : we have there-.
fore no other information upon the subjea, except
that communicated in the French Bulletins. We
cannot, however, but entertain a hope,, if. a Peace
has not actually been 'concluded between France and
Anstria, that the arrival o' our Expedition oil the
Coast of Holland will
~produce a strong effect upon
the Emperor of Austria, and induce him to persevere
in the efforts which he so-gloriously made to main-
tain the ItidePe.tiderice of his Empire.' It has been
reported, on the authority of 'private Letters, •that
BUOTLPARTB has returned to Paris ; but we can
hardly 'suppose that he would quit Vienna while a
Negotiation. for Peace was pending.

'When this Paper was put to Preis, rio official in-'
telligence had reached the Adcniralty from the gi-
palit ion. A number of reports have been circu-
lated, of letters having been received from Officers
engaged in the. Expedition, stating that the French
had evacuated the Island of Walcheren, kg, &c.
but it is hardly necessary to say that they are un-
f.onded. If such an ev6nt. had taken pike, Go-
.
vernmalt would of course have receive& an account
ofit sooner than any private individual.

Some more ilinerican•Papers, to the 27th instant,
have bee❑ received. The Non-Intercourse Aet has
Ixen renewed, but this has been represented rather
as a matter of course, until:a final arrangement takes
place, than as indicative of any, spirit of hostility in
the American Government against this Country. In
the House ofliepresentatives, however, this subjeCt
produced warm debates, and even personal alterca-
tions of considerable violence. The following ob-
servations ;re made in one of the American Papers,

upon the proceedings in Congress :
" The Public will now be apprised of the obje4
of Mr. GILES, in Senate, and Mr. J. G. JACKSON,
in.the House, dishing up such a curious mess of
political cookery as the New Non-Intertourse
It is to smuggle into the Statute-book a legal pro-
vision excluding British armed. vessels • from our
ports, henceforth and for ever hereafter, unless ad-
mitted by treaty. In the .present, situation of af-
fairs between- the two countries, it will require'
much forbearance and magnanimity, on the part
of the British Government, to prevent a re.;
newal of all our_ difficulties, if this proje& be
persisted in. Let it not Woo rashly be concluded
that this is a plan of the President. There is
reason to suspe& the existence of a coolness be-
tween him and Mr: GILES ; and the connec-
tion between the MADISON and the JACKSON fa-
milies has been weakened, if not dissolved, by the
'death of Mrs.JAcKsoN and her children. No one here
yet has doubted the sincerity of the President in his
late measures, and no correet politician can doubt
that this projed is inconsistent with the spirit of
those measures, and extremely impolitic in itself at
the present moment —But can we gather grapes
of thorns, or figs of thistles?"

Yesterday morning, his MAJESTY, Princesses'Am-
GLTSTA and SOPHIA, accompanied by Lord..WAL-
EINGHAbI,Lady I.THYNi`B, Generals CARTWRIGHT
and FiTzfroY, and' Colonel TAYLOR, rode in. the
Great Park, arid returned at twelve.
.

Wd are happy to inform the Public, that Dr.PoFE
has annonnced Princess AMELIA out of danger, and
tthat her Royal Highness is in a fair, way of recovery.-
The-Princess of WALES again visited the LY-
CEUM Theatre last night. Lady. CARLISLE, Lord
WILLIAM GORDON and his Lady were also Present,
and the boxes were filled with fashionable 'cha-
racters. The speech against tyranny in the last act
waS. delivered by RAYMOND, and the audienCe
applied' it to the French Usurper, with loud and
reiterated applause.'
To-day the Lor&-Mayor. was under the necessity
f raising the price of Bread 2d. per peck.
In the postscript to the Kingston Royal Gazette,
at the 10th Of June, we. have a long Report of,the
Ctutunittee appointed to incidire into the circum-
stance, of the mutiny of the 2d, West .India Regi-.
The principal objet of this examination was
ti) ascertain whether' the mutiny originated with the
mritits.ouiy, or whether the 'veteran soldiers were
gist) concerned. The report states,, " That the re-
cruits must. have had reason, in consequence of pre-
ions communication, to expeCt the support of some
part • of the regiment, or they would not have so
rushed forward, 'proceeding direetly towards the
front and rear of the regiment, and_ halting in the
rear of the grenadiers with charged bayonets, they
being 'cimnparatively few in number, and not having
the advantage of atumunition.'? It seems that the
Committee had much difficulty in obtaining evi.;
.deuce. A persOn styled Dr. RICHARD CHAMRER-
LAYNE having refused to attend the Committee, the
Speaker of the House of Assembly issued his war-
xaAtt to take him into custody.
