GIBRALTAR, OCT. 25.

ON the zzd thz armed Schooner Pickle, arrived
here from Plymouth, in eleven days, with dispatches
fbr Sir RICHARD BICMERTON, with which she
shortly afterwards sailed in quest of him.

Our last levers from Malta bring an account of
:ome very unpleasant disturbances that had taken
place at the Opera there, with General VIAI„ the
French Minister, in consequence of he and his fa.
wily refusing to stand up or take off their hats when
God save the King was played : the riot was so
great the first night as to prevent the performance
going on ; and on the second night, when General
VIAL'S famity went there without him, the Ladies
were hissed our of the house, on their refusing to
stand up when the rest of the audience did, on that
tune being played. It appears very strongly from
General VIAL'S condua on this occasion, that he
wished to draw some insult upon himself, and no
doubt but strong remonstrances have been sent
home to his Government on the subject.
General VILLETTE, who commands the Garri,
son, to prevent any future disturbances of the kind
in the Opera-house, gave orders, that in future no
popular airs, or any piece of music should be played,
except such as belonged to the performance.

OCT. z6.—The KING of iFTßuttin arrived at
Barcelona on the 4th inst. after a passage of eight
days, from Leghorn, under pretence of paying his
respeas to the KING of SPAtN, his father-in-law ;
but it is generally believed,: that BONAPARTE,
being displeased with his condua, has given him
to understand, that he has no further occasion for
his services as King, and has furnished him with
this pretence of quitting his dominions.
The KING of SPAIN's retinue, in his, journey to
Barcelona, amounted to upwards of five hundred
carriages, and - fourteen thousand persons in his
suite, and like locusts, their route was marked' by
famine and destrudion wherever they travelled, as
they consumed every thing on the road, and the ex-
pences of these Royal visitations are seldom de.
frayed till two or three years afterwards.
