E!NG'S VISIT TO Trfl THEATRE.

DUBLIN, AUG. 23.—The KING honoured the new Theatre
here, last night, with his presence, for the first time. He paid
a marked and handsome c-ampliment to his poor old friend,
Sheridan, by commanding " The Buenna," and the farce of
" Patrick's Day." These selections were also considered as
a token of delicate respect towards the country, and as
such they have added in no slight degree to the fervour
of that attachment which is felt honestly, openly, and most
sincerely for his Majesty in every circle of our society.—
Long before five o'clock, every avenue to the Theatre was
occupied by a very considerable crowd. In the pit, some ex-
tempore' battles were fought for places ; but they were not fol-
lowed by any material consequences. In both pit and gallery,
and even in the upper boxes, the men generally took off their
coats in order to relieve themselves from the intense heat of the
Theatre. At half past seven precisely, the King entered his box.
The pit rose en masse, waving hats, hands, and coats, and cry-
ing out with all their might, " Long live George the Fourth !"
From every part of the Louse a continued peal of applause was
kept up for nearly five minutes. His Majesty appeared af-
fected by his inability to express, by mere gesture, the nature
and strength of the feelings which he experienced. Ile bowed
to the audience in the most affable manner, and frequently
placed his hand on his heart. The two first verses of "
Ucd
save the King" were inaudible on account of the cheering.
The audience all joined in the chorus, rather guessing than
knowing the proper time, for which they had no other guide
than the di inns. The King had his chair put forward as near
as possible to the front of the box, that he might rcnddr him-
self visible as extensively as possible. His Majesty sat down
as soon as he had acknowledged the salutations of the eudienee.
Miss Stephens sung the additional verse, which was composed
in honour of his Majesty's arrival in Ireland. She was in charm-
, ing voice, and this verse, which seemed particularly to please the
King, was encored in the most rapturous manner. The King
wore theWindsor-Uniform and Ribbon of the Order of St.Patriele.
' The Duenna was very well performed. Between the Opera
and the Farcel the celebrated Irish Piper, Talbot, was lcd for-

(Extract of a Letter from the Agenz. to Lloyd's et Constant

nople, dated July 25.)

" The Turkish fleet has arrived at Samos; they
found the town and villages deserted, the inhabit-
ants supposed to have fled to the mountains. The
affairswith Russia are near being brought to a
crisis—it is now 7 days since the Russian ultima-
tum was sent into the Porte; an answer may be
hourly expected. Our situation is one of a very
anxious and critical nature. It is said that his
Majesty's Ambassador has been invited to at-
tend at a conference with the Porte to-day."

,Extract of a Letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Smyrna,
dated 19th July.)

" The Racehorse brig of war has sailed, and
we have now only The Medina sloop remaining.
There are four French vessels of war in port;
two have just sailed, one with the Consul's Lady
and family on board, and another to convoy four
French vessels through the Archipelago."

:Extract of another Letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at
Smyrna, dated 17th July.)

" A French frigate, corvette, and schooner en-
tered this harbour on the 12th with his Ma-
jesty's brig Racehorse. The Sniirna, FARMER,
from London, has arrived outside our Castle, Nri ith
the Odessa, ParrisoN, from Malta.—Advices
have just been received, that the Turkish fleet,
consisting of about SO sail of all sizes, has passed
by Scio, on its way to attack the Island of
Samos."

We received this morning the Paris Journals
of Thursday and Friday, which contain several
articles of importance. The Russian Ultimatum
was received by the Porte on the 18th of July,
according to accounts from Constantinople of the
25th of that month, and as ten days had been
allowed for an answer to be given, the decision
of the Turkish Government could not be known
before the 28th ; but its hostile nature was so
confidently anticipated, that all the Russian sub-
jects had quitted Constantinople, and the few
Russian vessels which remained in the harbour
had hoisted the French flag, in order to be pro-
tected from seizure in case of war. The follow-

ing are extracts :
" PARIS, AUG. 23.—1 t is said, that the Duke
Decazes, the Prince de Talleyrand, and several
other important personages will return to Paris
by the day of Saint Louis (Saturday last).—
(Constitutionnel.)
" A letter which we (Journal des Debuts) have
this instant received from Marseilles, gives the
following details :

A vessel from Messina has brought the intelligence that
the squadron from Tripoli, consisting of a corvette, three
polacres, a brig, and a chebeck, has fallen into the hands of the
Greeks. It is affirmed that a vessel arrived at Messinabrought
the details of this combat, of which it was a witness. The
squadron of Tripoli, being very inferior in force to the Greek
fleet, wished to avoid an action, and sought refuge at Sa-
lonica. The Greeks employed a ruse, which was attended
with complete success. They put before their fleet the
two Turkish frigates which they captured on the 25th
June, and appeared to be pursuing them. The Tripolitan
squadron let these frigates approach without any distrust,
and even advanced to protect their retreat. The two
frigates contrived to get in their rear, and thus to place them
between two fires. They then hoisted the flag of the Cross in-
stead of the Ottoman flag, and the Tripolitan squadron was
easily disposed of. This event, which takes away from the
Ottomans the hopes which they had founded on the aid of the
Barbary Powers, will be very favourable to the cause of the
Greeks. Tunis has no longer any thing but wretched barks,
and the corvettes building there for the service of the Bey, are
very far from being in a state fit for sea.'

" AUG, 24.—The Duke of Wellington arrived
yesterday at Paris, at the English Ambassador's
Hotel.

" Count Latour Maubourg, his Majesty's An-
bassador to the Ottoman Porte, is on the poi;
of proceeding to Toulou, where a frigate is wail
ing to convey his Excellency to Constantinople,

" By accounts from Berlin of the 12th it seems
there have been serious disturbances at Dantzic
at the le;;in►;ing of the month between the Ct►ris-
tians and the Jews, when the military were

obliged to interfere. Several persons vrere
wounded, and two Jews killed;
" Letters from Naples mention that a resolution

has been at last talen to exile a certain number
,of persons who to a more or less ,distinguished
part in the revolution. The list will, it is said,
extend to about ninety persons, including Po ERIO,
BORELLI, ARCOVITO, PETRONELLI, &C. Liberty
is ill be given to them to reside in Austria, Prussia,

" FRANKFORT, AUG. 17.—1 t has been cur-
rently reported here since yesterday that the
Porte has ordered the Baron Strogonoff to pro-
ceed to Odessa, and that it transmitted to him a
declaration of War against Russia. Certain in-
telligence has been received that Prince DeLie-
trius, the brother of Alexander Ypsilanti, has
arrived in the Morea, where he immediately as-
sumed the command in chief of the Greek troops,
and addressed to them, on the 24th of July, a
very energetic proclamation.
" Auo. 18.—An extraordinary event has oc-
curred in the neighbourhood of Schoenbrunn. In
the middle of a very heavy rain a prodigious
quantity of insects fell, which are not only un-
known in these countries, but even in the cabinets
of the learned. The insects are of the size of
scarabei, -which they resemble a little in shape;
they are covered with a species of shell, and wa-
ter appears to be their element, for they can only
be preserved alive by plunging them into that
liqu;d. It is supposed that they have been taken
up in some distant region, and brought here by a
water-spout.
" We learn from Vienna that the Aulic Coun-
cil of War has ordered two of the frontier regi-
ments (a description of militia) to march imme-
diately to join the army in Dalmatia. Upwards
of 30,000 men are assembled at this point ; be-
sides whom there are 40,000 stationed between
Trieste and Laybach.

" The last news from Greece come down to the
12th of July, and state that the Pacha of Berat
has been defeated at Asta, after a sanguinary con-
flict, by the brothers llysco and the Suliotes, and
that the Pacha himself has been made prisoner.
The Turkish army in Epirus does not now exceed
7000 men ; they are retreating towards the
defiles of Pindus, which gives great satisfaction
to the Greeks, as they regard the total destruc-
tion of the Turkish army as certain, because these
defiles are lined with their partisans.
" The brave Ulysses (Odysseus) has again
beaten the Pacha of Delvina, and taken possession
of Larissa. The battle was obstinately contested,
and scarcely a Turk escaped.
" LEMBERG, AUG. 6.—Our Gazette publishes
the following extract of a letter from the frontiers
of Moldavia, dated August 1 :

" There appeared suddenly before Dorna)
under the command of Jordaki, a body of 800
Greeks, who wished to force their passage on the
Russian territory ; but the Colonel who com-
manded there threatened to repel them by force,
and made preparations for that purpose. Dis-
concerted by this serious opppsition they laid
down their arms and were conducted to the
nearest lazeretto, from whence they will be
marched in four columns to Bessarabia, after
having performed the usual quarantine."

The following are the chief contents of the
Hatnhungh and Flanders Mails received this
day :
THE LATE QUEEN.

CC STADE, AUG. '2o.—All preparations are made
here to receive in a becoming manner the body
of the Queen. Commodore Detjers, with his
sloop, will sail to meet the Royal squadron, and
to receive from it her Majesty's body. Ten
Captains of the Hanoverian army go to Bruns-
hausen, and will attend it to Stade, where the
coffin will be placed for the present in the church
of Wilhadi, which is hung with black, upon a
catOaque before the altar, till particular orders
are received respecting its conveyance further on
the journey. A battalion of the 6th regiment is
ordered here from Itade to Brunshausen,to escort
the Royal remains.

" HA NOVEI, A cc. 17.—As soon as the mortal
remains of her Majesty Queen Caroline shall ar-
rive at Stade they will he conducted by a mili-
tary detachment, commanded by an Officer, and
accompanied by an Officer of the Court, who has
been sent from this city, by way of Harburg,
and through the districts of Luneburg and Celle,
to the frontiers of the Duchy of Brunswick,
where the coffin will be delivered to the Autho-
rities- of that country, to be conveyed to Bruns-
wick.

" AUG. 20.—We have received
the following authentic communication by way
of Marseilles :--

Algiers, July 10.—The Day had began to
arm his corsairs, bat the armament has been

suspended. It is said to be on account of the
numerous Greek ships in the Mediterranean,
with which the Dey wished to have nothing, to
do. The plague has broken out here, and seems
unfortunately to be spreading.
At this time the
deaths are from 12 to 16 daily in the city.'
" FRANKFORT, AUG. 19.—According to one
account from Odessa, of 27th July, the Turks
have again detained in the Bosphorus a packet-
boat, which had on board dispatches for Baron
Strogouoff. These, and preceding accounts,
which are by no means favourable to the conti-
nuance of peace, have had the effect of &press-
ingthe prices of the funds.

We see already several young men who have
joined the corps of Captain Dulberg, which is
designed to assist the Greeks. They wear a red
Cross on the breast : cloth has already been pur-
chastql for the service of this corps. The ac-
counts which we receive from time to time of the
unparalleled cruelties exercised by the Turks on
the Greeks are of such a nature that we hesitate
to repeat them till they are fully authenticated,
aid it is with grief we hear that the Greeks, in
their vengeance, seem to be little inferior in
cruelty to their enemies."

SIR HARCOURT LEES.—The manner in which
this learned and patriotic Baronet was receiNeil
by his MAJESTY at the levee on Monday last,
in Dublin, is a circumstance deeplY interesting
and important to all supporters of the Protestant
Ascendancy. When Sir llAncounT entered the
room, he -vas announced by the Lord in Wait'
ing in a loud and emphatic tone; and when the
Baronet knelt in loyal reverence, his MAJEs'r"
with a benignant smile and in a very impressis.e
manner, uttered the following words :—"
HARCOURT LEES, I have waited with great and
anxious impatience to 'be personally acquainted
L
with you ;" and continued to treat the Barone',
with gracious and marked attention. This in'*
dent, we are assured, has made a strong imPreib:
sion in the city of Dublin, and will probabli
operate in the same manner throughout thje
Island ; for, as his MAJESTY had created I,n'
FINGAL, (the head of the Roman Catholics in Ireti
land,) a Knight of St. Patrick, it had been inferr%
and predicted that Sir IlancounT LEES, as
avowed and uncompromising advocate of the Fr°tl.
testant body, against the present temporizing Fit%
dangerous system, was likely to experience but
cool reception. The very favourable inalini.eer:
however, in which the worthy Baronet was ",la
caived, naturally excited a strong sensation; all
has tended to check the ambitious hopes of thet,
Papists, as well as to induce the trimming Pr°tebls
tants to veer round again. The truth
MAJESTY is, as we are confidently assured, ardell
disposed to render every possible service to ittl'io
land short of shaking the foundation of e
National Faith and consequently endangeringthi
Sr
security of the Throne. The reception of
matt
HARCOURT LEES is therefore not a, mere rnao„
of Court etiquette, but a circumstance big •
nt
portant in relation to our happy establs°
Church and State. is that
tr

We have given in another part of our gaped
an account of the disgraceful riot which occurred
yesterday, after the funeral of tioNEY 31,0
, RANCIS. We believe the account which we I.ll.e:ve
adopted is upon the whole accurate ; an".
only to hope that the affair will be strictly 'M
tigated by the proper authorities.

DISTURBANCE YESTERDAY AT KNlGwrsult6:
