The departure of her Majesty the Empress for
Cherbourg, will, it is supposed, take place on the 19th
or 20th inst. a part of her equipage and attendants
have already set out.
AUGUST 21.—The Imperial Head-quarters were
on the 14th still at Dresden. His Majesty the Em-
peror enjoys the best health.

I.EIPZ;C, AUGUST 8.
3,lllViciii changes in the respective positions of the
corps of the army are talked of.
AUGUST 10.—The passage of troops from the banks
of the Rhine to Lusau and Silesia, is more-numerous
than ever. The cavalry corps are magnificent ; they
appear principally to concentrate themselves in Lower
Lusau, where they find plenty of forage."
The number of troops which have passed through
Bautzen (Upper Lusau) since the conclusion of owl
armistice, is estimated at more than 80,000 men. In
Lower Lusau there is at least 70,000 men. Marshal
the Duke of Reggio, who commands them, and who
had his Headquarters at Lubbernau, has just trans-
ferred them to Lukau.
Our Savon troops are in good cantonments behind
Goerlitz ; they are going to be reinforced by a new
corps, which has been organized and formed since
the armistice, at Torgau. 'Our cavalry are stationed
upon the Silesian flontiers.
DRESDEN, AUGUST 6.
Much niotion is remarked geneially in the Offices
as among the military.
A tmus-r 7.—Theaay before yesterday Count de
Bubna had a long conference 'with the Duke of Bas-
. I -t"

, All intelligent military men admire the excellent
position of the camp at Perna, and the importance of
the works constructed between that point and the
frontiers of Bohemia, upon both banks of the Elbe,
near Koenigstein and Libenstein. The entrenchments
are in part constructed in the rock itself ; they render
the defiles v.hich are on this side of Koenigstein in a
condition to'make a vigorous resistance.

The King of Prussia continues to make levies and
drain his states of men, as \they have already been of
money.

FRONTIERS_ OF SAXONY, AUG. 9.
We are assured that the corps of the Imperial Guard,
which are now at Dresden, are to march on ;he 11th
instant, for their ulterior destination.

The fortificatiOns of both towns of Dresden arc at
this moment nearly finished. With the fortresses of
Torgau, Wittenburg, and the fort of Kocnitistein,
that town now offers an excellent line of the 'Upper
EThe. The city of Dresden has greatly benefited by
the long abode in its walls of the French-head qu'ar-
tins, and a considerable number of military men of a
superior rank.

NAPLES, AUGUST S. •
Troubles have broken out in Sicily ; the inhabitants
refuse obedience to the new Government.

. THE EVENING STAR.

LOND

present, one solitary fact is worth a thousand conjee--
tures. There•had been no announcement of either
Ile prolongation or termination of the armistice,
w:ien the latest accounts brought by these mails came
away, nor had the armibtic2 then expired.
An Altona Paper of the 10th, received by the
Heligoland Mails, contains part of a French Dispatch
from Catalonia, which probably appeared in Paris
Papers of the 30th or 31st ult. which have not yet
reached us. This report shews evidently that there
must have been some want of combination in the
movements of the enemy in that quarter—a circum-
stance which tends to establish the fact, that the suc-
cess of the Allies has had the effect to derange, com-
pletely, all the plats of operations fornind by the
enemy for the subjugation and retention of the Pe-
ninsula.—LAMAßQUE had marched from Gerona to
Vich, expecting that while he attacked the Spaniards
there in front, his Commander-in-Chief, to whom his
letter is addressed, would have marched upon their
rear. The Commander-in-Chief, probably PECAEN,
however, had previously. recalled LAbIARQUE by an
order which was never received ; and the consequence
was, that the latter had to fight his way back again.
DECAEI, or 'whoever else was LAMARQUEISComman.
der, may have been himself called to join Suomi.--
This, however, appears to be the state of Catalonia,
with regard to the positions of the contending armies
now upon its territories :—First, there is LAMARQUE
at Gerona ; next, the Spanish troops which be at-
tacked at Vich ; then LAMAnQUE's Commander-in-
Chief ; then SUCHET, the French Commander-in.
Chief of the whole; and, lastly, Lord Witaaase
BENTINCK, who reached the neighbourhood of Tar-
ragona on the Ist of August.
The above Mails have brought some rumours of a
jealousy, or misunderstanding, having arisen between
the Danes and the French ; but we consickr this is
merely an opinion, originating in an ewleavour :o
account for a considerable part of the T.'rench fore
having left Hamburg!), and proceeded to Bergedotf,
w here they have encamped. We would rather as-
cribe this movement to a a desire to give support te,
and inspire confidence in the Danes, by presenting a
strong force, as an intimidator to the Swedish poi..
tion. The French, it may be relied on, have secure
•Hamburgh against the effect of sudden surprize from
any Power whatever.

Some of the letters which accompanied the dis-
patches from Lord WELLINGTON, were not delivered
until yesterday. One of these, dated St. Sebastian,
10th instant, is from an Officer who was engaged in
the siege of that place. He states, that The army be-
fore it were in daily expectation of the arrival of the
new battering train, and that on its appearance the
siege would be immediately resumed. The trenches
were guarded as if the attack was continued, to pre.
vent their destruction by a sortie from the garrison.
We have seen another letter, of the first authority,
which explains a fact but imperfectly known before,
respecting the late assault on St. Sebastian. When
the attempt was found to be completely hopeless,
Captain JAMBS STEWART, of the Royal Scots, seeing
the perilous situation of the wounded men, volun-
teered to go himself, and endeavour, by means of a
handkerchief, to make the enemy cease firing. He
rushed forward, amidst showers of shot, and after a
little time the enemy observed him waving his hand-
kerchief, and immediately ceased firing. It was in
the performance of this act of humanity that the Cap-
tain received his wound.

Captain STLWAIIT is the same officer who was Aid
-de Camp to Major• General MACKENZIE, when he was
killed at Talavera. Ever since that period he has
been on service, and has been present in most of the
actions that have taken place in the Peninsula.

The ramcz RZGSMT, it is said, returns to Carlton
House to-day, and on Monday next his Royal High-
ness, accompanied by Colonel BwourieLD, depart on
a tour through Warwickshire and Worcestershire.

Captain BLANCKLEY left town yesterday morning
for Brighton, to present King JOSEPH'S sword to his
Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT, at the Pavilion.
Numerous applications were made from the different
Offices to have a sight of this trophy, but as the seal
Of Field Marshal the Marquis of WetutNoroti was
affixed to the case, Captain B. could not gratify the
ivishes of the applicants.

ditto.

The superiority pf the cavalry of the German Le-
gipn with respect to the care and attenti3n paid to
their horses on service, has, we hear, been represented
in orders as an example to Light Dragoons.

It appears that the Wyndham transport, at Ports-
mouth, under orders for New South Wales, was so
full and crowded, that after an examination of the
danger of disease by the Inspector of Hospitals, a de-
tachment of the 46th Regiment, on board, was ob.
liged to be disembarked without delay.

The Commanding Officers of Regiments have re-
ceived orders from the War-office to discontinue the
usual contracts for meat, it being deemed expedient
that the supply of meat to the troops in Great Britain
should, from the 25th of September, take place under
contracts entered into by the Commissary in Chief only.
The 70th Regiment is expected in Cork in the
course of this week, for embarkation for Spain.

The late Captain DUBIRDIEU, of the Royal Artil-
lery, who fell by the explosion of a shell in the breach-
ing batteries at St. sebastian's, although a young
Oficer, was highly esteemed for his professional ta-
lents and gallantry. He had distinguished himself
during a series of ten years' service in the West In.
dies, particularly at the recapture of Martinique, and
had just arrived in Spain, to take part in die battle of
Vittoria, and the siege of St, Sebastian. He was son
of the Rev. JOHN DUSOADIEU, of the North of Ire-
land ; another of whose sons, Captain Dunonniev,
of the sth Regiment, lost his left arm in leading the
Grenadiers into the breach at the storming of Ciudad
Rodrigo.

The Regency of Spain have lately carried into exe-
cution the unanimous vote of the Congress, which
ordered a grant of land to be conferred on the Mar-
quis of WELLINGTON, as a solid and enduring monu- I
ment of the gratitude of their nation, for the transcen-
dant services he has rendered it. Three royal estates
have accordingly been submitted to the British Field-
Marshal for his choice, and with that disinterested-
ness and taste which are known to temper the splen-
dour of his military fame, he gave the preference to
that which was lowest in actual value, but which
came recommended to his fancy by the beauty of its
situation and the amenities of its scenery. It is the
royal estate, called the Sitteo d Roma, situated on the
river Xenil, in the Kingdom of Granada. Its annual
produce is estimated at 3U,000 dollars.
Lord Douno, the young heir apparent to the Mar-
quis of WELLINGTON, is at present at Tunbridge
Wells.

Sunday, about eleven o'clock-at night, a fire was
discovered at Dalry House,_ about a mile west from
Edinburgh. On the first alarm, the firemen and se-
v,,eral of the engines were soon at the place, and, we
are happy to say, the fire was soon got under, having
only destroyed part of the furniture of one room.

Two Comm.—An extract of a letter from a
Gentleman in Jamaica, to his correspondent in Bel-
lfast, dated:it. Ann's Bay, May 19, says.—" On the
2d of May last, there were two comets made their ap-
pearance in the eastern hemisphere, between eight
and nine at night. The tail of one pointing N N.E.
perceptible to the naked eye ; both are in the direc-
tion of S.S.E. from the city of Kingston."
An alteration in the projected plan for the new
street from Carlton House to Po: dand-place, has, it
is said, been recommended by the Comptroller of the
Board cf Works, which will include the whole in
one straight line (without any angles, as was at first
intended) It is thought that the house of Lord'
Somalis, in Cavendish-square, will be sacrificed to
this improvement.
ST. GEoßcesFiztas.—lt is observed that this part',
of the metropolis, which used to be covered with
houses of the worst description, is now dedicated to
the best. The School for the Blind, the Philan-
thropic School, and the New Bedlam, all buildings
of the most charitable kind, as well as conducted on
the best principles, are proofs of it.
PLYMOUTH THEATRE.—This elegant building was
opened on Monday, for the first time, to a very crow-
ded and brilliant audience, with 14 As you like it,"
and 41 Catherine and Petruchio." Most confessedly
there is no country theatre in England which can
outvie the numerous beauties and conveniences 'of
this structure, and the tout ensemble may be pronounced
unrivalled. •

Among the novelties at the Surrey Theatre we
understand that ELUSION has liberally granted the
revival of Macbeth, on Mond ty, the 30th instant, for
Mr. GROVE'S night, the Acting Manager, by whose
unremitting attention and exertions the arrangements
of thi' Theatre have been so ably and prosperously
conducted. The dog Gelert still continues his nightly
attractions.

A melancholy accident occurred in Batavia Roads,
on Thursday the 7th of January last. When the
transport ship Matilda was preparing to get under
Weigh, the Second Officer cif that vessel jumped over-
board after a favourite dog which had fallen over.
He was seized by a shark, and his arm crushed ; and
when he had reached the side of ;he ship, and assist-
ance tvas given to bring him in, the shark again seized
him by the back part of the thigh, and tore it so
dreadfully, that he expired, from loss of blood, a feiv
Minutes after he had been brought upon deck.
A letter from Heligoland, doed August 204 says,
This moment a small boat has arrived from the
Elbe, the only intercourse we have had with the other
side for several days, owing to contrary winds. A
very respectable man, who is the single passenger by
her, states positively that the French have left Ham.
burgh for the purpose of encamping themselves at
Bergendorg, leaving merely their gens d'armes and
douaniers in the place. The Gentleman further states,
that they have done this thrdugh jealousy, that the
Danes were not their friends • and he adds, it is well
known that if the Danes should 'tyrn. upon the French,
that Hamburgh is 110 t a place of ;marten' Secw
rity.'!

Paris Papers to the 22d instant have arrived, con-
tains accounts from Dresden to the 14th ; but they
are silent respecting the Armistice, which was to ex-

;most important circumstance respecting these Papers,
• which in fact are very meagre as to intelligence.
It appears that MURAT is on his way to the French
head-quarters at Dresden, but whether to assist at
the Congress or to take a command in the Army in
the event of hostilities being renewed, is not avowed.
The KING of PRUSSIA 13 reproached with draining

How does NAPOLEON raise his own armies ?
Some of the private letters brought by the Heligo-
land Mails reported, as we noticed yesterday, that
hostilities had recommenced in the North ; but none
of the letters from the Continent mention the circum-
stance, and in fact we believe the report to be un-
founded. We should constantly. keep in mind, that
letters are generally written under impressions which
operate merely on the writer, or which ire inspired
by his hopes or by his fears. At such a crisis as the
