rather to suppose that their leaders are not in 1
opposition from interested motives, but actuated
by a sincere regard for the Constitution, and
that finding Ministers have no design to infringe
upon it, they are likely to follow the course of
Lord BELORAVE and his noble father, and no
longer to oppose an Administration from which the
Country has derived such important benef►ts, and
whose system is likely to be productive of still
greater advantages, if not thwarted by party feel-
ings or interested malignity.

We received yesterday Gibraltar Papers to the
sth instant. The only important part of their
contents is a communication from the Dutch Ad-
miral in the Mediterranean to the Dutch Consul
at Minorca, stating that he had received orders
from his Government to confine himself in future
to the protection of his own commerce and ship-
ping, and requesting him to transmit the intelli-
gence to the Spanish Authorities, in order that
they might take the necessary measures for the
security of their trade and vessels, and to guard
against any unexpected attack from the Algeriucs.
The following are extracts :

" On board M.N.:If. Ship Holland, in Port Mahon,
Aug. 31.
" Sin—Having arrived in this port, I hasten to inform you,
that by an order of his Netherland Majesty's Minister fur Fo-
reign Affairs, which reached me in the Bay of Algiers on the
19th inst., I shall be under the necessity of confining myself to
the protection of my own commerce and shipping.
" Although I take far granted that his Majesty's Govern-
ment and that of his Catholic Majesty have reciprocally com-
municated to each other the motive and ground of this occur-
rence, yet I deem it necessary to apprise you of the same, and
to request that you will communicate it confidentially to the
Governor of this Island, or to any other authority that you may
think proper, that they may take their measirves for the secu-
rity of the Spanish commerce and shipping, and guard against
any unexpected attack from the Algerines, who after the treaty
concluded with the English, will certainty fit out their ships
of war. (Signed) " « OLTERBECK.

Majesty the King of the Netherlands, in tho
Balearic Islands, Mahon."

" Camp Marshal Alverez Campana has been appointed Cap-
tain-General of Andalusia."

In a letter from Genoa, of the 11th instant,
the recent successes of the Greeks are more
fully detailed than in nay communication that
has yet been made public. At the commence-
ment of the action with the Egyptian fleet, ISMAIL
GIBRALTAR was killed by a cannon shot, which,
being made known, greatly discouraged the other
commanders. The action was, however, main-
tained for ten hours with great fury. The Mus-
sulman armament may be considered to have
been put completely hors de combat. But a
comparatively small proportion of the fleet es-
caped, the largest ship, the "tau, was totally
destroyed, and the lOU of the PACIIA is a pri-
soner.

A lady of rank who had written a comedy, sent it with a civil
message to Mr. HAnnts, the patentee of Covent-Garden
Theatre, offering it him for nothing. Mr. H. observed that
her ladyship appeared to know the exact value of it.
A person who was present at a conversation in which a very
dull play was talked of, attempted a defence of it, by saying,
" It was not hissed."—" Very true," replied another, " I
grant you that ; but no one can hiss and gape at the same
tame."
When Louis X.VIII. resided at Hartwell, the
seat of the Duke of BUCKINGHAM, hie MAJENTT frequent.
ly visited Berklianistead, and dined at an inn there. The
landlord's daughter, Miss PAGE, was particularly noticed by
the KING for her amiable conduct, and on the Kuala's return to
France he invited Miss PAGE to visit Paris. A few months
since she accepted the invitation, and was most graciously re-
ceived by the MoNrAnctr. A suite of apartments were set apart
for her in the Tuileries, and the Chamberlain was directed to
show her what was worthy of attention in Paris. She frequently
dined at the KING'S table, and was received and caressed by
most of the Royal Family of France. On quitting the capital,
the KING presented her with 2001. which his MAJESTY begged
she would accept, as a token of his friendship, to pay her ex-
penses.
restoration of St. Saviour's Church, South-

In the access to the new London Bridge on the Borough side.—
Considerable part of the old buildings between the Church and
the River are now about to be removed for an abutment to the
new bridge, and to widen the future street, to which the bridge
will join itself, ind this ancient and magnificent edifice will be
fuUy exhibited to the view of the public. IVhilst a visitor is on
the spot, his antiquarian research will be much gratified on en.
tering the building adjoining the east end of the choir, still re-
, mining the name of the Spiritual Court, where multitudes of
Protestants In the days of Mary received sentence of condem-
nation to the flames. The light Gothic pillars supporting the
roof of this building will not fail to be admired ; and in the
same spot is the elegant monument of Dr. Launcelot Andrews,
Bishop of Winchester, with his recumbent figure in poutificoli-
bus. In one of the side aisles of the naive will be seen the mo.
nument of Gower the poet. The tower of this church, as well
as the east end, has been restored under the direction of Mr.
George Gwilt, and is an able specimen of simple and elegant
yet massive Gothic architecture. The monastery and Bishop's
palace near the church are quite in ruins. In the latter, when
inhabited by Biehop Gardiner, the fury and cruelty of super-
stition raged to their greatest heights.
