The KING and QUEEN, with their royal children,
are now at Ostend, where they intend living in re-

HAYNAII has arrived at Aix-la-Chapelle, suffering
from the severe flogging he received from the Bank-
side draymen. He was treated while passing through
Belgium with silent contempt.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
Accounts have been received from Rendburgh to
the 4th. The position of the hostile armies remains
unaltered.

The Swabian irereury says:—
" We learn positively from an authentic source that
the great European Powers have resolved to terminate
the quzrrel between Denmark and the Duchies. It is
decided that the order for the succession to the throne
shall be settled, and that England, Russia, and Franco,
shall send special plenipotentiaries to Copenhagen for
this purpose. The j)retensions of the line of Augusten-
burg to the succession to the throne of the Duchies will
also be discussed. Denmark has given formal assurance
that she will observe the greatest moderation iu regard
to the Duchies.

"It is said that Prussia will accede to the arrange- I
ments agreed upon."

out ten of those from Beratuda were in custody at New
York, awaiting the sailing of the brig Swan to Bermuda.
The other two got away from the city. The bonds of
3,000 dollars against Captain Pierce will only be can-
celled in the event of his bringing back a receipt to New
York of the delivery of the convicts from the American
Consul at Bermuda or the Governor of the convict hulk,
Medway.
A vessel arrived from St. Domingo had brought the
intelligence that the Emperor Fsustin I. was fitting up
an expedition against the Windward Islands, both by
sea and land. It was said the naval force would consist
of two large square-rigged vessels, and a propeller; the
latter was in preparation in some part of Europe, sup-
posed in England. Some three weeks previous three
white inhabitants of influence had been beheaded, for
what the authorities considered a too free expression of
political opinions.

STRAND THEATRE.

Another ballet from the prolific brain of Flexmore,
entitled Perequillo, or Terror in a Tub, was produced
last night with immense success, and adds an addi-
tional laurel to the well-earned reputation of that un-
rivalled buffo. His own saltatory feats and comicali-
ties presented, as usual, the acme of the agile combined
with the grotesque. Thrice had he, in compliance
with unanimous shouts, to achieve a " Burlesque
Extravaganza" with inimitable prowess. Several
dances of diversified character were introduced,
among others a pas Styrien, in which Miss Kate
Kirby and Cormack were encored ; an Ecossais by
the former accomplished danseuse; a Highland rant,
capitally danced by Cormack, whose precision and
brilliancy we have seldom, if ever, seen more advan-
tageously developed than in those two perform-
ances ; a pas de deux by Caroline Parkes and
Emile Richarde, which was rapturously ap-
plauded ; a Swiss dance, executed with great naiveté
by Mips M'Evven ; a Medley by Miss Emma Mears,
and a Cracovienne by the Misses Bolton and Hen-
drick ; the entire being wound up:with a grand general
polka by the full corps de ballet. Special mention
must be accorded to Madlle. Palser, who completely
captivated the enthusiastic spectators. The singularly
prepossesssing appearance of this young and lovely
artiste, the exquisite gracefulness, finished execution,
and feathery lightness of her movements, amply justi-
fied:the unbounded admiration which her enchanting
qualifications universally inspired. The house was
crowded to the ceiling, as it doubtless will be during
the continuance of such an attractive array of Terpsi-
chorean talent so harmoniously and brilliantly blended
under Flexmore's masterly supervision.

ASTLEY'S AMPHITHEATRE.
The revival of Mazeppa has been a great hit. It has
already been performed upwards of seventy consecutive
nights, and still continues to attract over-flowingbo ises.
Mr. Batty has also engaged a most accomplished
vocalist, Miss Annie Hardie, who sings Scotch ballads
most effectively. We know not when we have been
more pleased than we were by her rendering of the
beautiful ballad, " Jessie, the Flower of Dumblane."
The audience were in raptures, and Miss Annie
Hardie has already become an immense favourite
with the patrons of Astley's.

POSTAL REGULATIONS IN SOUTH WALES.—The
recent alteration in the route of the London mail, by which
letters are forwarded from the metropolis and the west of
England into South Wales, via Bristol and across the river
Severn at the old passage, instead of through Gloucester, has
caused much dissatisfaction and inconvenience at Swansea
and other towel' on the route. The alleged grievance lies in
the fact that the mail in crossing the passage is subject to the
delays and irregularities inseparable from that mode of
transit, ard that in the winter time these inconveniences will
be much increased. A short time ago the London mail was
delayed two hours before it reached Swansea; and this too
in the summer season. Other delays have arisen, and in con-
sequence the inhabitants anticipate that when the winter
really sets in, their correspondence, instead of arriving at
eig‘lt A.M. at Swansea, will not reach them until eleven and
twelve o'clock. To the west of Swansea a postal delay is of
much consequence, as it reduces the opportunity for reply by
return to a very short time —at Llanelly not more than two
hours remaining; at Carmarthen the time is even still less.
A serious amount of inconvenience may thus be caused, and,
in order to avoid this, and procure the transmission of the
mails through Gloucester as hitherto, the inhabitants are
about to memorialize the proper authorities on the subject,
in order to remedy the evil before the winter closes in.

GLASGOW, SEPT. 7.—Cotton—The market for
cotton wool has been inactive all the week ; purchases are
only made for immediate use by the spinners, and the prices
of this day week are scarcely supported. The recent ac-
counts from America have had no effect on the trade. A
moderate business doing in yarns and goops at stationary
rates. Pig Iron—Our pig iron market has teen dull during
this week, and little business has been done, the scrip ques-
tion having somewhat depressed prices. To day mixed
numbers are offerel at 425. 6d. cash, and 435. three mouths

rose a covey of 15 grouse, about 50 yards off. Six fed to the

dead, and three lamed. The day before he shot 12 brace in
succession.—The Witness.

ST. STEPHEN'S, WALBROOK.—The repairs are

and a window is to be opened over the other. It is ex-
pected the Grocers' Company will present one of stained glass.
The carved work has been placed in the hands of Mr.
Rogers. The organ!gallery will be enriched similarly to that
of St. Mary-at-hill. Over the altar is to be placed a new
cornice, in keeping with the style of the church, and enriched
with carvings of fruit and flowers. The architect is Mr.
Turner; the builder, Mr. Young._ The Builder.
BARTHOLOMEW•CLOSE.—The inhabitants of Bar-
tholomew-close, though situate in the heart of the city of
London, have hitherto claimed exemption from Corporation
services and fines as non-freemen. That right, however, is
about to be disputed by the Bakers' Company, who have
commenced proceedings for the recovery of penalties against
some of the inhabitants, and subscriptions have been opened
amongst them to defend their claim, which is made under a
charter granted by llenry I. to Prior Bolton, and confirmed
by Henry VIII. to Sir R. Rich. The district includes all
that part of the City lying between Smithfield and Alders-
gate-street and Little Britain and Long-lane.

A RUNAWAY HORSE.-- On Sunday forenoon, as
Mr. Thompson, the wholesale shoe-manufacturer of Church-
street, Spitalfields, was proceeding down Snowhill in a four-
wheeled phaeton, accompanied by his wife, another lady,
and one of his children, his horse took fright, and ran away
at a furious pace. The animal was not stopped until it
dashed with great violence through the shop-front of
Messrs. Emery, linendrapers, at the corner of Farringdon-
street and Holborn-hill. The amount of damage caused by
the collision was very considerable, the plate-glass windows
boing shivered to atoms, and the stock and fittings much
injured. Mr. Thompson received some severe bruises.
The horse was badly cut, and the phaeton was dashed to
pieces; but the females fortunately escaped with very
trifling injury. _

DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—On Thursday night,
about ten o'clock, as Mr. Garrett, agent to the Royal Ex-
change Assurance Company, was returning home to his resi-
derce, No. 22, Carter-street, Walwortb, he was seized by one
of a gang of four men, who knocked him down, and plundered
him of a valuable watch. In the meanwhile Mr. Garrett,
who is a very hale stout man for his years (being upwards of
70), roared so loudly that the thieves made off without rifling
his pockets, in one of which be had no less a sum than between
400'. and 5COt. in notes and gold.
HARLOW HORSE AND CATTLE EAIR7 SEPT. 9.
This fair, which immediately succeeds that of Barnet, and
