AMATEtti CONCERT.!--
this title, last night commenced its opetations at the
Hanover-square Rooms. As this Concert is under
the diredion of JOHN SPENCER, Esq. and Colonel
. F. GREVILLE, two Gentlemen conspicuous in
the fashionable circles, it was natural to exile&
it would obtain a distinguished patronage among the
that
higher orders. Such Is the faCl, ,and never in this
Country comd a public undertaking of the kind
boast a so high and so splendid a list of Subscribers.
The Conceit commenced at eight o'clock, and though
the butchesof IE,oNsHI1E,oNsHI it E gave a brad Concert
last night, the Hanover-square Room had a large
concourse of fashionable visitors. The Concert
was led by CrtAmER... Mr. SPENCER sat at the
Pianoforte. The Orchestra was well su
m by
'
Professori and Amateur Performers.
Applied
ong the
latter were the Earl of WEsTMEATH, Ron. P.
tAMBE, Hon. D: MACDoNALD, J. MEE
Was; Col. SMITH, H. MITCHELL , T.
, and man ot Gentlemen of acknoWledged Musical skili. Indeed her
the
eneral spirit and accuracy of the Concert has
ardly ever been surpassed, Madame BIANCHI,
Nt ct.o; the SALES, GARB, Master KELLNER, and
others, supported the vocal depart..ient with great
ability. The pieces were well chosen. A Glee,
composed by G. T. SMART for this Concert,
tertO .
was well received. Asti s Con_
the a delightful
n.
ori the Flute. A Trio for the
two Horns was ably supported b Harp and
y Miss Ca.srmo
*nd thetzwriziatts. After the Concert, which was
not, as is often the ease; too long, the company de-
acended to a very elegant Cold Supper in the Tea
Itoomit. Covers were laid for two bunderd persons,
and aS those who were-first accommodated yielded
their plaCes after a reasonable time to others, all the
eortipany were in turn amply gratified. Catches
and Glies succeeded the stipper, and wire followeld
by a dance in the Concert Roorm..—This meeting is
certainly the most elegant of the kind ever offered
to the fashionable world, and as the expellees must
be more than the subscription.money, notwithstand-
ing the high and numerous patronage, it is evi-
dently intended as a rational and refined refute

ADDRESS FROM THE CAMP OF ST. OMER.
CITIZEN FIRST CONSUL, MO." 7.
" Let NAl4ot.Eorr BONArARTE, First Consul, be
proclaimed Emperor of the French.—Let the Impe-
rial title and power be hereditary in his family.—
Let Liberty, Equality, and the Rights of the People
be preserved entire ! Such is the wish of the Tri-
bunate ; such is the National wish ; such, is the cry
resounding in those vast territories which you have
consoled,. embellished, and rendered proud of your
glory !. SUcli has lung been ours ; and we should
have proclaimed it sooner, had we not feared to
weaken the merit and eloclience of those which are
addressed to you from all quarters, and-of the bles-
sings which re-echo around you. We have seen
able to keep back the expression of a sentiment that
would overcome us, and we applaud ourselves for
having given Europe time to judge whether you are
dear to French Men. Orr the 18th Brumaire, grateful
France would have applatided those institutions
which would have then given you the Empire : you
would have made her happy under a title which you
have rendered illustrious, but which no longer suf-
fices for your greatness and her affection ; she
nursed in secret, feelings which she can no longer
conceal ; suddenly impelled by the crimes of Eng.
land, the Nation has broke silence, and the world
has just now heard its acknowledgments and wishes.
The Troops of the Camp of St. Omer knew that the
Nation would cfrer to you a diadem ; they reserved
for themselves to implore you to cover your august
head with it. They ardently desire to tender to
your paternal and puissant hands the Oath which the
French Army, on the /4th of July, offered in good
faith to that degenerate. Family which soon detached
them from it, by trifling with its own engagements.
An all-powerful motive operates on, your generous
heart, while the interest -of forty millions of men
hardly allows you to delibtrate. It requires the sacri.
Tice of your .person; \it claims your family, which
has discovered so many talents, and promises- us
nothing hut virtues. tYou owe it toyour own glory,
to put the seal to your sublime Jostitatioos, by
majestically placing that cherished Family-at the
summit of the edifice, to fix for ever the pttention
of virtuous Citizens ; to annihilate guilty hope, aid
to precept to the French, Chiefs worthy, to ero
them. Accept for-her and yourself; the fairest tri-
bute of gratitude ever offered ; and the en'eg-:-..
ment you will take will ensure to future generations
the happiness we already owe_to your fav(wr.

ADDRESS FROM THE CAMP OF BREsr..
CITIZ.EN FIRST CONsUL,- Brest, May 9.
" When the whole Nation, pressed by the sense of
its clingers and necessi►ies, -confided its destiny,to
you, the Army, rendered illustrious by this choice,
applauded' it with the greater enthusiasm, as they
were better qualified to appreciate the power of
your genius. When successive plots threatened an
existence, which is the pledge of happiness to forty
millions of men, the Army shared the alarms of an
immense people ; and thence sprung in the hearts of
all the Soldiers the desire to see a new order of
things, that would oppose an insurmountable barrier
to the dreams of ambition, to the hopes of crime.
Respect only could compel us to confine this wish
within our hearts. Essentially subjed to the Laws,
we durst not arrogate to ourselves the first hint of
it. But, Citizen FIRST CONSUL, let us not be for-
bidden to rejoice at an event, in which all our af-
fdlions are blended ; let us not be forbidden to
mingle our voice with the sacred voice of our Coun-
try ; let us not be forbidden to supplicate you not
to oppose a measure, without which, the enjoyment
of all that we have acquieed, at the expence of so
much'biood and sacrifices, would be uncertain and
precarious. A great State require; an irremove-
' able Chief: it requires an invariable order of suc-
cession. This order, eminently necessary to its
quiet, is by no means imeompatible with Liberty.
Be then, Citizen FIRSII CONSUL, be our Emperor.
without ceasing to be the father of the Country.
For otir part, tranquil at present on the happiness
of all that is dear to us, we whet oufattns..... As
soon as the.hour of Justice shall have struck, as soon
as you shall have resolved to punish a Government
which has filled the measure, give your signal, Citi-
zen FIRST CONSUL, and yore will find us devoted
and faithful.

ADDRESS FROM THE CAMP AT UTRECHT.
CITIZEN FIRST CONSUL, April 27.
" After having indulged the most acute sensa-
tions, on the discovery of the horrible attempt pro_
,Jetted against your person and the French People,
we have looked forward to futdrity, and discovered
the uneasiness which must spring from our present
organization, and from the habit of seeing our ene-
mies sully themselves with their :rimes. But, Ci-
tizen FIRST Co trstri., you can destroy their criminal
projeasi and‘preyent their odious plots, by depriving
them of the means on which they ground their hope
of producing in France an horrible division. You
can add another benefit to •those with which you
have overwhelmed the People and the Army, by
securing their numerous possessions. Produce, then,
in the form of Government, that salutary change
which the whole Nation desires, which it hopes, and
which the impulse of things commands. Let an
hereditary Government follow an elective one, which
dangers, of disorder, and confusion ;
ris the source f
and let zn anust title place you in that rank which

COPENHAGEN, APR IL 24.—The commerce of
our principal towns is becoming every day mare
flourishing. Several English, Dutch, and Ham-
burghers have settled in our city, where they carry
on trade to a .great extent. The 'greatest activity
is displayed in constrtAing. trading vessels at Co-
penhagen, Tonningen, and Schleswig. '
G:,THA, APRIL 211.—Ota Duke died last night.
According to a wish expressed in his Will, he is to
be interred in an island in his gardens, near the spot
where some of his children have already been in-
tvted. He has expressly forbidden the erection of
:rny Monument or Epitaph. His body will be de-
routed in a common, grave, and a Tree planted

over it.
HAGUE, APRIL 24.—Letters from the Cape, of
Good Hope, state, that several English Vessels,
the Commanders of which did not know of the com-
mencement of hostilities, had entered the Cape, and
had been detained. They were rich Ves6elsi com-
ing from the East Indies.

DUE ING.—On Sunday evenirg, Capt. JOHN
PAGET HUSTINGS, of the Worcester Militia, and

Capt. MATTHEW HUTTON, of the 22d Foot, had a
dispute at the St. George's Coffee_House, Cov‘ent ty-
Street, Haymarket, which ended in a duel :being
agreed upon. In the course of yeSterday !tyquing,
their friends hearing of the result of the dispute,
sent information to Mr. GRAHAM, the M tgistrate,
who- issued Warrants fur their apprehension, and

Officers were dispatched in pursuit of them.
T,!'ev, were soon brought-in the custody of Atkins
f.efore Mr. READ, the Sitting Magistrate
is Office, Bow-street, by whose kind in-
the parties shook hands, and agreed to for.
get what had passed. They were, however, held
tat.i to keep the peace in iool. themselves, and

•
one surety in tool. each.
GREENWICH PARK.—Yesterday the 0/ivies of
this ancient scene of frolic were celebrated with ail

the vivacity of John Bull and his jelly family. The
extreme serenity of the morning, joined to the well-
known attratlions of Greenwich, sct the holiday

folks in early motion. The finery of Whit. Monday
was displayed in all the colours of the rainbow. The

approaches to the scene of merriment were coni-
P,enced by lani and water early in the day. The
roads to town in the evening exhibited a repetition
of 'the same motley groupes as went forth in the
morning : every coach, long and short, stage or
hack, every buggy, gig, cart, or other vehicle that
could be hired was in requisition. The cavalcade
enjoyed the full benefit of the dust, of which the
clouds were almost impervious. There were a few
Private boxing.matches, and some little ducking in
the Thames, in the hurry of landing and re-embark.
ing, but we heard of no serious accident.
Rovittw-MATcH.—Yesterday, about half past
two in the afternoon, the Aurora and Westmorelandi
two four.oared boats, started from Westminster-
bridge to row through Kew-bridge, a distance of
eleven miles and a half, against tide, for a wager of
twenty guineas. The choice of piers was won by
the Aurora, but before they reached the shore the
Westmoreland came up with her, and nearly turned
her round; •the Aurora, however, prevented her
opponent from passing her, and continued ahead all
the way up Millbank. On crossing from tl►e Dis.
tillery to the Red House, the Westmoreland again
came up with the Aurora, and after a sharp con-
test, passed her and kept greatly a.head until they
came near Putney, when the Aurora got very close
to her adversary. After they passed the bridge,
the Westmoreland again got so much a-head of the
Aurora, that on the arrival of the latter at Baines,
she gave up and went on shore. The Westmoreland
continued her course, and passed through Kew.
bridge at four o'clorki having performed the dis.
tance in about an hotir and a half, the shortest time

it ever Was rowed in. The bridge yids lined with
speaators, above and under the arches, who saluted
the vieturs with huizas and a discharge of small guns
on their arrival. Considerable bets were depend-
ing. The odds, previous to starting, were in fa..
your of the Aurora.

A young man was found shot through the head
about one o'clock in the afternoon of Sunday, in
Norwood. The fnlldwing description of his person
will affoid his distiessed friends and relatived an
opportunity of owning him :—He was dressed in
a eorbeati.colouted coat, with covered buttons ; a
blue, barred with a small sprig, Marcella waistcoat ;
Nankeen pantaloons ; white stockings, and shoes tied
with silk strings, with a pistol hying by the side
of him; in his hand a little powder in some paper,;
and in his Waistcoat pocket a sixpence and a bullet.
He was found in Mr. Scott's upper wood, formerly.
called Thieves Hall, and lies now at the Gipsey
House, to be oWnedi
At between three and four o'clock yesterday al_
ternoon, a young woman of poor appearance, and
apparently intoxicated with liquor, attempted to
thrust her young infant between the battlements of
Blackfriar's Bridge, and throw it into the Thames.
She was immediately taken into custody, and carried
to Bridewell. It was there found, that she had lately
lain.in in Sr. Saviour's Work-house, and that she
had a husband, though she was going to commit this
unnatural action, She and the child were conveyed
to St. Saviour's Work-house, as soon as these cir.
cumstances wete made known.
