'A ship'. which has just arrived :from Rio Janeiro
brings intelligence to the 34 of June inclusive.
The expeditioniitting out there 'was fully prepar-
ed for sailing, and would leave the port on the fol..
lowing day, it the wind and weather permitted.
,The whole consisted of a 74,. a frigate, six
sloops of war, and 'seven transports. Ac-
cording to the best informed persons at Rio-
Janeiro; the expedition had Monte Viders for its
object. The troops on board amounted to about,
7000: 4OOO of whom' were volanteeri from Por;
Angtil, who had served and fought under the Duke
of Wellington. --.

themselves of their present power to do all the
mischief they can ; for it. is stated on the autho-
ring of a letter from Teneriffe„ that they have a
frigate of 32 guns., and a sloop of 20, cruising off
the Canary Islands, _which have made several
valuable raptures from the Spaniards.. All
the American ports are said .to be open for
their reception, and the most active maritime
war is now going on. Several individuals; of this
country have al,o, according to report, recently
purchaed fast-sailing vessels, fitted them out, and
then proceeded to Buenos Ayres, where they are
equipped as privateers, receive their instructions,
and immediately sail to cruise against the Spa-

' We were right in our eonjecttires respecting the
gross exaggerations anti falsehoods dealt out in
the French papers on the subject of the Barbary
Powers. IV e have seen letters front Malta of the
I lth of July, which state that the navigation of
the Mediterranean was never so free from inter-
!
reflation, in the memory of man,. by the Barbary
pirates, as has been since the Treaties nego-
tiated by Lord .EXMOUTtr; and 'that the Maisaere
at Bona (in which hundreds were-stated to have
been slain) was a skirmish in which some seven
or eight persons lost their liVes, but no.Engliih-
'man, -nor any vessel under English colours -or,
English protection, suffered in the smallest tle•
'gree. Whence then arise those groundiesi
hoods in the French Papers—are the Editors au-
thorized and enconraged by " the Government to
rouse other nations, and England in particular,
to a Crusade against the Barbary Powers, white
France stands aloof and profits by it French-
men,- we should recollect, will ttill be Frenchmen,
and no experience will ever cure them of that
spirit of intrigue which would seem.to be an in-
herent quality in their composition.

We are sorry to learn, that a confirmation ltas
been received of the murder of Mr. Ltst,E, the
Government Messenger at Madrid. He is ',op-
posed :to have ignorantly entered a walk fre-
(panted by bad .eharacters, and was, perhaps,
autreted to have been a Spy among them. He
recrived seven stabs in his body. His cloaths

The Duke De BERRI has subscribed 2001. to
the Fund fur the Relief of the British Poor,
with an intimation that he will give a monthly
tohtribution of 501. 'till the Spring. We
trust this act of princely munificence may for the
future stop the mouths of those among us who
are so prone to slander his Royal Highness, and
to make theta feel something like the cou►punc-
tious visitings of shame tur the past. We retard
it with pleasure, nut so much from the satisfac-
tion it affords us to observe that a Bourbon Prince
remembers, in the nol►lest manner of residue
hrante, the kindness his family received among
us, and testifies his gratitude in a way most qt.
lightful to the British Public, as, frost► its ad9tilm
ciig so cheering an illustration of the principle of
inter-national philanthropy, burying the lode"
rivalry of England and France in the grave orge"
nerous sentiment, and uniting them, as it even,
in a community of bet►er feelings and social-love.
We may assure his Royal Highness, that beT
could scarcely have done any thing which could
more endear' him to a country emit! isitelyilive to the
glory of liberal actions, and fully. capable of
predating the grace and refinement of- tbis very
honourable acknowledgment.

Readers to the short political Essay it) this raper

ItAY All 11% r .—A Theatre &mid scarcely pris'ent
a spectacle intive truly grit tying in every respect
than the Little Theatre slid last night. It was the
first public appearance of the Duchess of Gt.ou7
CIiSTER With her lioltaittl ; and the affectionate
reception the Royal fair experienced was not only
gratifying as a personal compliment to them, but
as an effusion of loyal feeling and 'love for the.
Family of oil honoured Thezl.'tincess
always an Vhject of 'regard and esteem , where
ever she has come into contact with popular sen-
timent, was abtiost overpow6ed by the emotions
to which the loud and geffitine tribute of the
audience _gave birth. At the conclusion of the
first 'stanza of" 60a Save the King," tier eyes
were suffused With , tears, and it was evident
that what had come so warmly from the hearts
of the people had 1)0w-rated to the heart of
the Royal Bride, and prepared it to feel more
finely the painfully
_pleasing Sensations which
our gatioual Hylnit was otherwise calculated
to excite. The added verse front the pen of
Mr. COLMAN was well sting by DUIWSRT, and
produced a grand effect : we never witnessed" a
more general, more cordial, or More gratifying
diffusion of sympathy ; and we believe that we
only speak the sense of nine-tenths of the com-
pany, wken we say 'that the verse and the OCCa•
Sioll inspired a mingled feeling of exquisite enjoy=
meta, in whit!' the sorrows of the King and Fa;.,
titer of his Peaple^-01C 'auspicious union of his
Family—the lovely confirmation of the P'oet's
langliage, which was presented in the amiable
I'lllle-es's—and a multitude of recollections and
gritteftd 'sentiments contributed to exalt and pu-
rify the minds of all who were present.
Their Royal Highnesses arrived at 7 o'clock pre.
cisely. The. Stage Box on the King's side was.
as we yetrerday mentioned, tastefully decorated
with blue and yellow silk for click. reception.—
Exit by Mistake, Blue Devils, and The Agreeable
Surprize were the Entertainments.

It is almost unnecessary to say that these pieces.
were perforated in a style which does credit to
English theatrical talent. We have from the be-
-ginning of the season noticed the very .superior
manner in which the company it playing some of
our most amusing comic productions.; and .the
presence of their Royal Highoessek, with rill
-overflowing House, had not the effect of dimi-
nishing their exertions or clouding their genius.
Exit by Miatoke was gone through 'with great
spirit, and afforded much merriment. In the In-
terlude and Farce, Taarty's Megrim, and FAw.
CETT'S Lingo, and Mrs. DAVENPORT'S Cheshire
Princes, ought to be applauded as masterpieces
of comic art. -

In the conclusion re God save the King" was
called for and sung. The whole corps, as before,
'appeared on the stage, the Ladies White, and
all wearing white favours its honour of their ltoyai
Visitors ho departed amidst a repetition of shouts
and blessings.
ENGLISH OPana.—Last night a person in the
pit annoyed the audience, and amused himself by.
hissing, the whole performance, in direct Opposi-
tion to the general feeliog of the flooSe. At the,
conclusions of the piece of Old Customs, Mr. BA ET..
LEY (tit whom the greatest, disapprobation was
levelled) pointed hint 0111 to a friend : this being
noticed by several around, Mr. B. in the lint
scene. of The Maid and Magpie, was assailed by
a laud cry of " Apology !"- he immediately came
forward, and addressed the House in nearly the
following terms :
" Ladies and Geutlemen,—ln the double papcity of Stage
Manager and Performer, it ii my duty readily to ncknow.
