THE THEATRE:

We received yesterday and ibis morning the
Pars rapers of Thursday and ErPay last ; %vent
of loom compete us to coofine ourselves to a short
notice of their contents. Those of the former
day gi“e the details of the celebration of the fête
of St. Louis on Wednesday, consisting of con-
gratulatory addresses to the KING front different
public hoel;es, a grand dinntir at the Thuileries,
(lilrribution of pr(o in the C 113111116 Ely.
sirs, fire-works, an illumination, &c. &c. His
MAJPeTv commemorated} the day in the most
gra,itying manner, by granting 535 pstdons ro
persons under illerent sentences, of whiCh 345
were free pardons, and 190 either commutations
or remissions in part of punishment ; 113 of the
pardons or COIOIMIt%ti,IOS Were granted to indi-
viduals under sentence for political offences, 26 of
whom hod been condemned to banishments, and
11 to deportation.

The announcement of the arrival at Paris of
Marshal GOVVION ST. CYR, was, it appears, er-
Tarlton,. his Excellency being detained at his
estate of Reversaux by the state of his health.
The Journal de Toulouse quotes accounts from
Barcelona, stating, that Geneiel CASTANOS had
received orders to proceed immediateiy 0 Cadiz,
in order to supersede the Count MISSAL, who
had been summoned to Madrid to render an ac-
count of his conduct.

An interview is, it is stated, to take place be-
tween the Emperor of AUSTRIA and the King of
SAioNY, for which purpose the Emperor and
Empreba proceed to Dresden the beginning of
October.

The Emperor of RUSSIA and the King of-Swr-
DEN were to have an interview at Torneo, in
Finland, about the middle of the present womb.
The Journals of Friday contain little, in-ad-
dition to the above. The King transacted busi-
ness on Thursday with the Minister for Foreign
Affairs. The appeal in C35811:1011 Of Gin. Sut.
RAZIN has been rejected, anti his sentence con;
firmed.

During the first six mouths of the present year
the number who committed or attempted shield,
at Paris, was 109-137 of them men anti 62
women. The attempts were 53, and the actual
suicides 146.

it is stated from Frankfort that she fortresses
of the Germanic Confederation are to be four in
..,urnher, viz. Ulm, under ►he principal diteetion
of Austria Gevrerasheim, 4 leagues from Landau,
under the direction of Bavaria ; Harburgh, 4
lesgues from Deux Ponta, under the direction of

Prussia ; and Raetadt, under the direction of
Wurteinberg and Baden.

The following article is taken from The Dublin
Evening Post .--

" THE CITY of CARACCAS TAKEN by tht PATRIOTS.
" POST OFFICE, TUXES O'CLOCK.--We •top
the press to announce the receipt of tt letter at
this Office, front Hamilton (Bermuda), dated
July 4, stating the arrival there of a vessel called
the Three Brother', bringing the highly important
intelligence from the Spanish Main, that the Pa•
triots had taken the City of Canteens."

The full Report, which we have given this day
respecting the Legal Proceedings, and their Result,
at Manchester, readers no comment necessary on
our part, It appears that, in consideratiou of the
heated state of-public feelings, *lid a laudable zeal
for public tranquillity, Government has been in-
duced to suspend, not wholly abandon, as erro-
neously stated, the charge of High Treason,
against Hutur.ancl his associates, and to indict them
for a Conspiracy. This coudact, on the part of
Government, is prudent as well as lenient, tur the
higher charge ought to be kept in reserve, by way
of terrorepa, that the Offenders may be warned from
future excesses et the same nature. HUNT, it
.appears, affects to disdain most triumphantly to
be admitted to bail, but it may fairly be Ties-
dolled whether ail art hin deluded followers, wino
have property sutlicieut, would hazard it to such
an amount as the Magistrates have required.

We understand that d Writ of Habeas Corpus
has been issued by one of the Judges, on the ap-
plication of one at HUNT'S Frieuds, for the pur-
pose of bringing him up to London.

We Imo from tiothority that Sir FRANCIS
BURDETT has RVOSSIed himself as the Author 47f
the Letter addressed to Mr. BROOKS.

As there semi to be some doubts whether the
Letter of Si; FRANCI3 .131311DIITT will CORM Under
the revision of the Law, we may fairly be excused
for bringing it before the tribunal of public opi-
nion. This Letter is dated the 22d inst. six days
after the Manchester Meeting, and therefore must
have been wvrittt•n, according to the Baronet's
own implied acknowledgment, before he could
have obtained any authentic intelligence of what
bad really happened, but which he nevertheless
says filled him with "shame, grief, and indigna-•
lion." Now the statements which raised suck
emotions In his humane mind, were, he says, ga-
thered from Newspapers, and as he is not likely to
place the 'test confidence in Loyal Newspapers,
even if be suffered them to enter his house, it
must be inferred that his inforniation was derived
from the Seditious Papers, which, of course, would
give a factious and fallacious colouring to their
narrations. Nor could the Conductors of those
Papers-, which must have been published in Lon-
don on the 18th inst., have received any other
than uncertain accounts, even if they had been
disposed to give faithful recitals. Well, then,
these at best uncertain repairs in the. Jacobin
Newspapers, for, of course, the Baronet would
rely on no others, reached him on the 21st.
Yet, with no other than these uncertain, at best,
and most probably exaggerated and mischievous
details, intended to bring odium. Upon the Man-
chester Magistrates, the Yeomanry Cavalry, and
Government, the Bu4rouet writes his furious Let-
ter, without the possibility of being able to form
any reasonable judgment 153 to the real state of
events. Can any thing be conceived more demon-
strable of Party prejudication, and a determina-
tion to harbour the worst thoughts of those who
had been hazarding their lives in defence of the
Country, and the restoration of tranquillity?. It
cannot be pretended, in favour of the Baronet,
that his " shame, grief, and indignation" were
the result of mere humanity; for he proceeds im-
mediately with his usual rashness to consider all
the disasters that occurred at having been caused
by what be is pleased to stile " the Borough-
mongers," and the use of a Standing Army in
time of Peace." Hence it is plain, that he was
so ill-informed by .his Jacobin " Newspapers,"
that be did not know that the Yeomanry Cavalry,
• and not the Regulars, were employed in seizing
the. Authors and Fomenters of the Seditious Meet-.
ing YaOMANRY CAVALLY, which may be
considered as MILITIA, the Constitutional De.
fenders oftbe Country, and not part of " a Stand-
ing Army:: He then,, in the same spirit of de-

termined animosity against those who were in-
duced, by a cease-of public duty, to preserve the
public peace, exclaims, " What ! kill men no-.
armed, unresisting, and, gracious God ! women
too; disfigured, maimed, cut down, and trampled
on by Dr4eons!" Here is such another proof of
preittdication as might he expected front the pre-
cipitate temper and partial feelings of the Baronet.
That the mob were not provided with fire-arms may
perhaps be admitted, but they took care to provide
themselves with stones and other missile weapons,
and were by no means unresisting, as the Writer
says, bIU, by their attacks on axe YEOMANRY CA,
YALRY, who would otherwise have quietly secured
the Ringleaders, and were ordered not to disperse
the Meeting, this mob actually provoked the cats-
millet that ensued. As to the attacks upon the
women, without asking what business women had
in such scenes, it is by no means probable that
they were struck otherwise than by accident, or
injured by the violence of the retreating Rabble.
It is not the character of Britons to treat females
with inhumanity, and though they may not dis-
play the outward gallantry of the French, our Coun-
trymen feel towards the sex much more genuin,
respect and admiration. The Gentlemen of Eng-
land are next asked if they" will support or wink
at such proceedings r and are told that " they have
a great stake in their Country ; they hold great
estates, and they are bound in duty-and in honour
to consider them as retaining fees on the part of
their Country, for upholding its rights and liber•
ties." That it is the duty of all, whether with
or without property, to support that State -which
protects them, must he granted. Their own im-
mediate, interest requires such support, but
as to the idea of " retaining fees," it is ab-
surd. Property was originally acquired by
services, talents, or industry, and are not to be
viewed, in the democratical, light held out by
the Baronet, as they are rather debts paid to the
Possessors, or iheirAncestors,for benefits received,
It Is said tbat these Gentlemen " never can stand
tamely by as lookers-on, whilst bloody NEROB
rip open their Mother's Womb." This language is
as disgusting as it is inapplicable. The De-
fenders of their Country, against a lawless Rabble
and their infamous Leaders, are the dutiful chil-
dren who protect and succour their mother, while
that lawless Rabble and thole infamous Leaders
are really the NERO', tier unnatural offspring,
who are attempting to bring her to ruin, misery,
and destruction. The Baronet's invitation for
another Meeting,- that, for aught he knows,
might be productive of the same disasters, is a
proof of rashness and folly that throws ridi-
cule upon all his professed humanity. His con-
cluding reference to the Army, in his observation
that JAMES 11. " could nut inflict the torture on
his soldiers—could not tear the living flesh front
their bones with a.cat-o'-nine-tails—could not flay
them alive"--is abiolute nonsense, or such a libel-
loos insinuation upon our military discipline as
ought not to pass without notice. On the whole,
tLe Letter may be considered as an abusive and
'editions libel, and therefore we heartily hope
that it will nut be treated with silent indigna-
tion, or mere contempt.

The Poblic, we believe, have hardly ever read
a more offensive libel upon the administration of
Late, and the Government of the Country, than
is to be found in The Times of this day. It is
throughout not only a malignant misrepresenta-
tion of facts, but a venomous prejudication of the
ciuestiosa at issue.

Conti-EXCHANGE, AUG. 30.—Our ItTsiket was
well supplied with Wheat to•day from Essex and
Kent, the major part of which was of this year's
growth, and chiefly of fin• quality; but the
trade was heavy P t decline of from Is. to 2s.
per quarter from the prices of this day week ;
New Barley comes slowly to hand, but there is
very little demand for it, and prices are nominally
as on last Mooday, picked samples having sold at
375. to 395. and the inferior sorts from 346. to 365.;
Oats are is. per quarter cheaper, and dull sale at
that abatement;, in Beans and Pease there is no
alteratiotr.

The Calcutta Papers, which have reached us to
the sth of March inclusive, are very satisfactory.
The Ex-Rajah of Nagpore, APPA SAHaB, whose
capture is the only object of the hostile operations
in theinterior of India, appears to be reduced to the
last extremity. " We may expect," says the Cal-
cutta Journalist, " to bear very shortly of the Ex-
Itajeth's death or capture, and shall not fail to
communicate the earliest intelligence that may
reach us of such an event, which will unquestion•
ably terminate the campaign there, ante restore
tranquillity to, those disturbed provinces."
