BRIGHTON, SEPT. 10.

Arrived the Tiber frigate, Captain DACRRS, and
fired a salute in our roads. At eleveu o'clock the
PRINCE REGENT, accompanied hy the whole re-
tinue of the Nobility at the Pavilion, for the.se-
contl time, went on board the RoyalUeorge yacht,
which was lying at the distauce of about three
miles from the shore. As Isis Royal Highness
stepped into the barge, discharges of cannon took
place from the Inconstant and the Tiber frigates,
and the several gui-brigs in the roads. These salutes
Were renewed %Olen the PRINCE 'REGENT arrived
on hoard the yacht'. After his Royal Highness had
stepped into the barge, he condescendingly waved
hii hat to the numerous assemblage that lined the
beach and cliffs. The whole of the vessels sailed
to `tire 'eastward of the town, and at half-past one
o'rlie‘k this afterntion the frigates and sloops were
ranged- in line of battle, and exhibited all the ma-
noeuvres of an engagement, which were visible
from the shore. By two o'clock the firing had
ceased, and a general chase• commenced to the
westward. Sir IVILLIAM CURTIs embarked on
b .ard his yacht, which had been previously pro-
visioned for a voyage to Portsmouth. As the
Worthy Alderman was in the secret of the in-
tended sham-fight, he dauntlessly approached the
scene of action, and nobly resigning himself to
lkis fate, was captured, and is now as report goes,
13'p/ isomer on board the Royal yacht.

THE THEATRE.—The Opera of Vuy 71annering
was the dramatic invitation •to Covent-Garden
Theatre last night, and it was obeyed by a very
numerous audience. Miss STEPHENs was parti-
cularly.cheered on her return to her station, -and
nothing can fully describe the exquisite style of
her singing. Her voice was in perfect order, and
her acting was marked_ by the most interesting
simplicity. The illness of EMERY occasioned .his
part to be allotted to ToKELYi whose part was
assigned to Mr. COMER. They both acquitted
themselves tolerably well, considering the short
notice of the required change. LISTON, as usual,
.gave full activity to the risible muscles of the au-
dience. The rest of the Performers were well
received. The Afterpiece was Aladdin.

MUSICAL FESTIVAL.—The prospect of a TIUMer
runs attendance at the approaching Hampshire
Musk Meeting, on Tuesday next, and the follow•
ing days, is such, that the Directors, auxiota to
provide in every respect for the accommodation
of the Public, have enlarged the space appro-
priated to the audience, by the erection of addi-
tional galleries in the cathedral, and at St. John's
[louse. The arrangements made in the Cathedral
will present a brilliant and imposing coup d'ail;
and the raised gallery, at St. John's House, is so
constructed, as to accommodate a large number
of auditors, without injuring the beauty of
that degant room, or interfering with the con-
venience of the dancing. We are happy to state
that Mr. BARTLEMAN is in such good health
as to ensure his doing full justice to his ex-
traordinary talents. When it is -considered
that Miss STEPHENS and Mr. BARTLEMAN
have pryer hitherto. perforated in Winchester
Cathedral, we cannot be surprised at the ge-
herally prevailing desire to hear the unrivalled
powers- of these eminent singers displayed to so
great advanwe.

ENFIELD RACES, !gm
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER JO.

The second year of the revival •of the sports of
Bufield Marsh commenced this day.
The. day
,proved most .propitious nod the com-
pany assembled in due time, but from some mis-
take it was not exactly ascertained whether the
Plate or the Stakes wat to. b.e.,rsin :for first, in
consequence of wttkl► the horses• were• not all.
nr4n the ground, and a great delay took place,
during which slate sotto difference of opinion pre-
vailed ; however, at last it ended in the-proposi-
tion of a Gentleman, seconded by the Steward,
that Mr. Dyion and Mr. Pearce should toss up
and settle the matter in dispute; Mr. Dyson won.
the toss, and the Plate, which was succeeded- by
.the Stakes, was decided as follows: •

The .Ladies' Plate of Fifty Pounds for Horses, of all ages that
never won a WI. Plate or Sweepstakes. Heats two miles
and a distance. The winner to be sold for 1200, &c.
Sir C. llnnbury's be. h. Romancer, 3 yrs ist 1 1

The first heat Lioness took the lead, and kept-it until with-
its half a distance of the winning chair, when Romancer pas-
sed tier and • won in good style by two lengths.-3 to 4on
Romancer the second.heat, who took the lead and kept it, and

Mr Dyson's b. g. Luck's MI, aged, 9st. alb. ' dis.
Mr. Price's br. f. by Clinker, 4 yrs, Est. 61b.
Clinker won the first heat in good style 'by one length and
a half, but when the jockey was brought to, owing to the de-
ficiency of a sursingle not being weighed, he was half a pound
deficient, and consequently rendered incapalile of further
contesting the race. Even betting Clinker against the field
before his disqualification, and at the second heat 3 and 4 to
I on Master Robert, who was turned out of the course by a
horse breaking the line, which turned his progress and hurt
the rider, but nut seriously.
There were numerous pickpockets, who were
closely watched by the constables, but only one
was detected, and he received a severe dueking.
The betting oil both :aces WAS very dull,
