LISBON, APRIL is.

The Board of Police has issued a long circular to the
Corregidor' of the Provinces of the Kingdom, complain-
ing that the Police has not yet been able to obtain the
information which is absolutely necessary respecting the
number and qualities of foreigners in this kingdom.
Vigilance in this respect, it is observed, is peculiarly
necessary at this moment and in the actual political
situation of the Peni .sula especially, when regard is had
to the immense number of foreigners on the ftontiers,and
in the most important parts of the kingdom, and the ne-
gligence of the officerswho ought to attend to this subject.
The Corregidors are therefore to summon all foreigners
in their respective districts, to appear in 3 limited time
ion pain of teing ordered to quit the kingdom), and to
produce the documents which prove their ioentity, re-
cognized hr their respective Consuls, in the places
which they inhabit ; and the passports with which they
entered, which shall be entered in a General Register
of all Foteigners, to give them cards of security, ss hich,
from this day forward, shall be the only title that shall
authorise them to reside in this kingdom ; and which,
for this reason, they must always carry about them.—
The cards are to be given with caution, according to
the character and circumstances of the foreigner, all
which it is proper to consider in such an important matter.
These cards shall not be given for a longer time than
one year, and this can be granted only to persons re-
spectably established in the kingdom. Persons changing
their place of abode to give notice of it, and when a
prolongation is asked for, the Justices are to be very
careful; and if the foreigners in question are suspected,
tither on account of their conduct or other reasons,
they are to give cotice to the Police, and to grant the
card only for such a time as is necessary to receive
an answer.

Two lists are to be made by the Jostices of. the fo•

reigners in their districts, in which, under the head of
obvervatiotts, they are to point out any whom it is pro..
per to watch as suspected, or who require some mea-
sure of greater security : one of these lists is to be sent
to the Board of General Police, and the other to the
Chief Magistrate of the Province. Lists are to be sent
by every post, stating the changes that have taken place
by new arrivals, removals, departures, &c.
The French Papers of Saturday have reached us. A

deputation of the Chamber of Peers presented to the
KING, on Friday, the project of law on the conversion
of the rentes, adopted by the Chamber on the previous
day. It was to appear in the Monileer in the shape of
a law on the following day. Prince Wirroanarium, who
it appears has quitted the service of Russia, in which he
distinguished himself so much in the celebrated cam-
paign of 1812, is to attend the Coronation of CUAatrii
X. as Ambassador Extraordinary from the Haw of
Prussia. M. de Val.Ece has introduced a new project
of law in the Chamber of Diauties, to allow foreign
grain, on the Ist of September next, to be warehoused
and bonded in certain frontier towns of France.
According to adv ices froth Rome, the Log of NArLis
made his entry into the capital of the Papal world on
the 15th ult. and afterwards met bis son, the Prince of
SAIMINO, at the Farnese Palace. Late accounts from
Spain continue to speak of disturbances and broils be-
ttbeen the Royal Volunteers and the people.
The Papers are chiefly filled with debates. The fol.
lowing is an extract from the Journal des Deblois :

PARIS, APRIL 29.

The Court of Cessation has this day rejected the appeal of
Pierre Louis Fort, condemned by the Court of Assize of Paris to
hard labour for life, and to be brand-marked, for having attempted
to commit a murder.

M. Soule, Editor of the Noire, bas been condemned to four
months' imprisonment and Son franca fine. The sentence was worded
as follows according to the Charier ProVac:
`• Considering that the Journal called the NON is composed in a

THE KIAG'S VINIT TO DRURYLANE
THE4FRS.

Last night, so early as five o'clock, the different en-
trances to this Theatre were beset by crowds, which
continued to augment rapidly during • the succeeding
hour, at the end of which, as had been announced,
the bolts were withdrawn, an overwhelming torrent of
people burst in at each door, and is less than five mi-
nutes every part of the House, except the engaged
seats, was overfilled. Of the boxes, the slips alone
had remained unappropriated, and the struggles to ob.:
win a place there, particularly on the side opposite to
the Royal Box, was quite terrible. The parties who
were so fortunate as to have got in first, endeavoured
to confirm their good fortune, and secure themselves
from the pressure of their less successful neiglbours in
the lobbies, by shutting the doors; but wherever that
was done, and attempted to be persevered in, the ex-
cluded parties had recourse to violence, and tore the
dot•rs off their hinges. In the pit, there were the same
fainting scenes, and dragging of women up into the
boxes, that usually takes place upon such occasions;
whilst the tenants r f the galleries endeavoured to af-
ford themselves breathing power,. by stripping to their
shirt sleeves. Several pugilistic' contests took place
both there and in the pit. The Loyal Box was fitted
up in an exceedingly handsome style, the canopy and
crown- by which it was surmounted being at once splen-
did and beautiful. The private boxes above it were
reserved for the Royal Suite. His Majesty came to the
Theatre in nearly the same state as on the last occasion,
escorted by a party of the Royal Horse Guards (Blue),
and was received at the door with the customary forms
by the Lessee and principal Officers of the House. A
short time before his arrival, Sir Richard Birnie, 'who
attended with the Police to preserve order, entered the
Royal Box, and was at first mistaken by the galleries
for his Majesty, and loudly cheered : but as soon as
the gods perceived their error, the plaudits were ex-
changed for sounds of a less flattering description,
there being those amongst them, no doubt, who did
am conceive themselves as under, too much personal
obligation to Sir Richard. Precisely at seven o'clock
the King entered the box. The audience instantly rose,
and greeted him in the most cordial manner with cheers
and waving of bats and handkerchiefs, in return for
which his Majesty bowed to all sides of the House.—
The curtain then rose, and the whole of the performers
sang Goo save the lank in which they were joined by
the audience, who unanimously encored it, and it was
repeated accordingly. During its repetition, however,
the King remained sitting, which he did not do at Co-
vent-Garden, and which seemed to intimate that his'
Majesty was suffering either from the effects of slight'
indisposition, or more probably from fatigue. During
the whole of the evening, we observed that he was by
no means so animated as he appeared to be at the other
House. He did not, as there, mark time to the music
with his hand, and was exceedingly sparing of his ap-
plause. The Duke of Dorset, and four or five other
Officers of the Royal Household, stood behind his Ma-
jesty's chair; the remainder of the Royal Suite occu-
' pied the boxes reserved for them over-head. After the
Overture was concluded, and the Piece commenced,
there was an expression of disapprobarion mingled with
tries of " f of" from the gallery, which for some
time prevented the voices of the performers from being
heard. It arose in consequence of there being a greater
number of individuals in the House than could find ac-
commodation, or obtain a view of the King or the
stage. At length, Mr. Etliston, in Court-dress,
vanced in measured steps to the (rent of the stage, and
close to the Royal Box. Resting his hand on the hilt of
his sword, he inclined his head forward two or three
times, and then attempted to address the audience.
After a few efforts to obtain a hearing, he partially
succeeded. We understood him to say, that notice had
been given an hour and twenty minutes ago that the
House was foil, notwithstanding which, those who
chose might leave the Theatre, and their money sould
be returned to them. The last sentence we heard we,
this, and it was delivered with peculiar dignity—"
feel honoured by your presence, but—w the rentaader
of it was drowned by the tumult in the gallery. It was
not Ago el Rest men with Mr. ammo, but Ego alone;
for he applied the undivided honour to himself; satire

.. ,

Fed, no doubt, that it war to hear aim matte a speech
;n Court-dress, and not to see the kING, that the over-
whelming crowd present had A •cked to the. Th• ore.
However, the noise having gradually stihided. the
Opera proceeded to its close, heavily enOnelt, novAi..h-
standin; the beaut;ful airs anti cliortyqes wi:h which it
abounds. At fts conclusion Bate, Britannia was called for, and
sung. the Ktud and audknte remaining standing and joining in the
chorus. It was encored ; but G.. saw Oat Mg was repeated its
its stead. During the performance of the latter, his Marmite con•
tinned seated. The Farce of &wpm and Co. followed. but the
galleries seemed out of patience ihtb it towards the end, and re-
peatedly called out to cut it short, that they might have Gad saw
Me Zing" once more. His Majesty seemed to enjoy one or two
passages In it, at which he Laughed, but on the whole he did not
appear very much amused. On the fall of the curtain the Royal
Anthem was again performed, and the audience once more cheered
his blajesty.who,after bowing very affably several times in r.•.urn,
withdrew from the Theatre, and returned to Carbon Palace.
