rETERSBURGIL JULY 19.

The Conservateur of to-day contain? the Ukase re-
storing the free port of Odessa, dated July 9, and
consisting of 16 articles. The line is nearer the
bounds or the town than before, the better to prevent
smuggling. Some goods for the use of the town pay
one-fifth of the duty.

We have this morning received intelligence from
Bayonne to the 2d instant, which contain some in-
teresting details as to the relative force of the French
and Spanish troops on the frontier.
It appears that the French cordon from Thoulouse
to Perpignan consists of about '20,000 men, of whom
3000 are Cavalry,•and three brigades of eight pieces
of cannon each. The troops posted on the frontiers
from Thoulouse to Bayonne are estimated at 10 or
12,000. The garrison at the latter place consists, of
1000 Foot, 300 Artillery also on foot, 100 mounted,
and 60 of the train. The statement adds, that pretty
considerable contracts for provisions and forage have
lately been concluded.

Workmen are busily employed in making 6,000
uniforms and other things for the division of the
Army of the Faith under Quesada, who has lately
received, by contraband, a great number of muskets,
ammunition, and four field-pieces. This General is'
certainly protected, though it cannot be said by whom.'
On the other hand, it is a fact that the French doua-
niers are very vigilant to prevent the passage of all
kinds of arms and ammunition to the Peninsula-, and
only the day before yesterday they seized 50,000
cartridges, and 100 muskets. This fact is an answer
Ito the imputations of the Spanish Government, re-
specting the protection and succour which it says the
Defenders of the Faith have received in France. .

These people have certainly been protected by a
secret hand, for everybody knows that Quesada pre-
pared his expedition on the French territory.
Addresses continue to pour in from the Spanish
Provinces to the King, the Permanent Deputation of
the Cones, and the National Militia, on the affair of
the 7th instant, all full of patriotic expressions, and
sentiments of indignation at the conduct of the Guards.
Some of these are very violent, as will appear by the
following extract from that of the Garrison and Local
Militia of Saragossa, addressed to his Majesty on
the 24th of July ;
" autalruar perjured sad aocaoldtadovecoaduat, tits bad

faith of your Blioisters. the perfidious counsel, of the men who
surround you, and whom you in vain persist k keeping about
you, contrary to the general opinion of your subjects, are the
true causes of the misfortunes and disorders which abet this
heroic nation, which has made so many asaillem to deiend the
throne on which it has replaced you) and width wen deserved,
u a reward, that wise Coadtution which yen have spontaneously
embraced, and solemnly sworn to observe sad to consolidate.
While the blood of the many victims fails la the late war
for our Independence is still reeking, the support which the
foreign and domestic enemies of our fine Institutional have found
in your Majesty's Government, has plunged the whole nation
into an abyss of misfortunes which threaten to swallow up the
Throne and the nation."

The Addresses. from the Constitutionalists of Vit-
toria, Bilboa, and St. Sebastian, are in the same style.

Lopez Banos anived at Madrid on the 29th, and
General Equinosa, who succeeds him, entered Vit-
toria on the SOth. The Deputy Calatrava, who is
appointed Minister of the Interior, has left Bilboa for
Madrid, with an escort of 100 men. Lopez Banos
has at length accepted the Ministry, and the Deputy
Sincho succeeds Martinez de la Rosa as Minister of
State. Thus there are now three Ministers of the po-
pular party.
The latest accounts respecting Quesada are con-
tradictory, but the result seems to be, that he main-
tains his position in the mountains and keeps on the
defensive, making excursions into the plain, which
harass the constitutional troops.

" PARIS, •UGUST 5, ISM
_ _ -

" Sta—l lose no time in giving you information of what has
come to my knowledge respecting the outrageous treatment that
the English Company of Theatrical Performers are now ex-
posed to in the French Capital. These ill-advised and very ill-
used persons have engaged the Theatre of the Port St. Martin
for twelve nights, and on the 31st ult. began their representations
with the performance of Othello. Long before the doors could
be opened, however, a countless multitude of the Parisian mob,
of all ranks and classes, had assembled, for what purpose will
appear hereafter. It is evident that very few, if any, of the
French had any intention of hearing the Play, or of allowing
others to hear it. The crush at entrance was tremendous ; at
length all whom the House could hold were seated ; a spirit of
mischief and ill will towards the English was apparent before
the curtain rose, but the instant the Performers appeared and
began to speak, they were assailed with shouts, hisses, mockery,
and every species of insolent and brutal derision.
" Some of the wits of this modern Athens, or the heroes of this
modern ROW, amused themselves with braying like sues, others
by crowing like cocks (forgetting, I suppose, how often their
crest has proved a craven)--othars, in a strain of ingenious and
elegant pleasantry, called out to the actors, Mots, parks done
Franiaise ." The performers continued to go through the busi-
ness of the first act with invincible composure and courage,
which, of course, the French call phlegnse.
" But when from verbal outrages and shoots of obstreperous
laughter; the gentry of the parterre proceeded to pelt the Actors
with all the small %ear, of annoyance within their reach, the Per-
formers began to see the necessity of making a sudden retreat,
and therefore skipped the third and fourth Acts, in order to pro-
ceed to the fifth, hoping perhaps to conciliate their auditory by
the simulation of scenes of ferocity, to which they :hewed so
great a disposition in reality.
" The Parisians could not, however, wait patiently even for
the pleasure of seeing an English-woman assassinated, but pro-
ceeded to accelerate her doom by pelting the actress with ap-
ples ; one of them struck her violently on the eye ; she retired in
tears and terror. The male performers were roused to indig-
nation—the parterre rose in a body—the musicians made
their escape in dismay—the gens d'armes made some faint shew
of a purpose to protect the English. The amateurs of tumult
rushed upon the stage, and confusion reigned throughout the walls
" At the commencement of these creel and cowardly out.
rages, an EditOr of a Ministerial Paper, M. de Martainville,
spoke from the boxes, and endeavoured to persuade the pit to
peace and reason. For this offence he was insulted throughout
the whole of the second act ; fifty voices at a time roared out in-
cessantly,' Martainville dla ports ! Martainville a la pork !' Last
night, August P., the English attempted to play again; the prices
were raised in order to secure a better class of company.
" You will ask what notice the English residents and visitors
here take of this outrage to their countrymen?—None, as yet.
I suppose they are too much stunned and amazed to be able to
decide on anything : but I venture to propose two measures of
just retribution and expediency.

,4 The first that we all subscribe to indetnnify our insulted
countrymen for the loss of their expected profits, and send them
back forthwith to England : the other, that we all enter into an
agreement never to set our feet within the doors of the Porte St•
Martin till the Thames and the Seise have ceased to flow."

Every one has heard of the coarse answer of Lord
THURLOW, when told that there was an insurrection
in the Isle of Man, and which he compared to a
storm in a certain chamber utensil. Of just as much
importance is the dispute between the Duke of ATHOL,
the Governor in Chief of the Isle of Man, and the
House of Parliament there, relative to the nomination
of some persons to office, and which has terminated
in an adiournment, prorogation, or dissolution of the
HMS. of Keys, dia the Parliament of the Isle of Man.
