In addition to all this, let our Readers recollect that within

these few days the Danish vessels in the ports of France had been
ordered by the Consuls of that Country to put to sea, even at the
risque of being captured by the English cruizers. It was believed
that this order had been given in consequence of a demand made
by France, to be put in possession of the Island of Zealand and
the wrecks of the Danish Navy—a demand which it now appear,
probable might have been made in consequence of symptoms o+
change perceived in
_the sentiments of the Court of St. Peteri-
buret. •
Some of the letters frcm Heligoland state that Austria has ac-

Tea EzorestENT.—There is no truth in the report that was
universally circulated cn Wednesday, that Lord Paget bad 13... en
killed in a duel, in consequence of his elopement with Lady
Charlotte Wellesley. We did not state the rwnour, because
had ascertained it to be unfounded. The injured husband is con-
fined to his chamber by indisposition : and it would be a degree
of errantry inconsistent with civilization for any other gentleman
is interfere.—The elopement took place on Monday afternoon.
Mr. Henry Wellesley, who is Secretary of the Treasury, had
spoken, it seems more pointedly than ever to Lady Charlotte,
on the very marked and constant attentions of Lord Paget, which
(though from the long and confidential friendship which had sub-
slated between the families, be did not apprehend to be disho
nourable), might affect her reputation in the world. Lady Char-
lotte was indignant at the idea of reproach; and hurried out with
her servant to take the air in the Green Park. She desired hint
to remain at the gate, as she should walk for a short time ; and it
appears that her Ladyship took a hackney-coach, and sent a note
,to Lord P. at Uxbridge House. They met, and in this state of
irritated feelings, and probably on the consciousness of guilt.
they set off together. As Lady Charlotte did not return t 4
dinner inquiries were made. The servant had continues' at the
gMe of the Green Park till a late hour; and on his return
home, being questioned, he gave the aove .cc unt. The
melancholy truth was Confirmed by a letter, which, as we
have before mentioned, Load Paget wrote to his father, its
which he acknowledged his treltass--and that he had in vair,
in the heat of battle sought a refuge from the agonies of a dis-
tracted mind. It is certain that on efery occasion in Spain, he
exposed himself in a way which got him the reputation of rash
and adventurous gallantry. Ark could not be imagined that a
Nobleman apparently gifted with all tke means and objects of
happiness could be in reality so wretched. The two sisters, Lady
Charlotte and Lady Emily Cadogan, married two brothers, Hen-
' ry and William Wellesley. Lord Paget is married to one of
ti e
beautiful daughters of Lady Jersey, by whom he has a numerous

family.
TXTATIT, Itarumtarre—A annedy, Intitled Inirpei.dedre,
or The Trades, was last night presented, for the first time, zt this
Theatre. It is the production of Mr. ALLINGIIAM, the author
of the Aferrilfe Prowise, Fortune's Frolic, and other pieces of
much merit. the present comedy, whicl:our limited space will
not permit us to criticise, we can only say, in general terms, is
not unworthy of his pen. The dialope contains many points of
pleasantry, and the plot is well constructed, though in some parts
it Ii not sufficiently progressive. There was evidently a hostile
patty in the house, whiob availed itself of these pauses in the ac•
tion ; but the-announcement of the piece for repetition wad sanc-
tioned by a very great majority.
