Knights of the Garter, in his Throne Room. The
Knights of the Order were assembled in the Robing-

together with the Officers of she Most Noble and
Illustrious Order. The principal King of Arms at-
ranged the Knights in the following order :

A Chapter of the Order was then held in presence
of the Paine REGENT, which was opened by the
Bishop of SALISBURY, Chancellor of the Order, who
also announced, that there WAS a vacant stall, which
it was the pleasure of the PRINCE REGENT should
now be filled up. Garter King at Arms retired, and
introduced the Eail of MotitA, who was knighted by
his Royal Highness, and then withdrew into an ad-
joining room. The votes of the different Knights
were then collected, and the PRINCE, on examining
them, instructed the Chancellor to declare, that
FRANCIS RAINGQN HASTINGS, Earl of MOIRA, was
duly elected a Member of the Most Noble and illus•
trious Order of the Garter.

The Marquisses WELLESLEY and HERTFORD, the
two junior Knights, then introduced the Earl of

remonial.

A great number of addresses of condolence on the

others, an Address from Cambridge University, from
the county of Northampton, from the county of An.
glesey, Om Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Birmingham,
Merionethshire,

Lord GLENBERVIE presented a Report to his Royal
Highness, and had a private audience after the Levee.
At the Levee, Mr. EDWARD HrrcutNs, Mayor of
Oxford, was knighted, on his presenting an Address,

By the Official Agents from Buenos Ayres, we have
been favoured with the following communication:
" Our army has had three conflicts with the Portuguese, in
all which the Patriots have been victorious. In the last action
the Portuguese lost, in killed, $OO men; a Portuguese Brigadier.
General has been at Buenos Ayres eight days,•iu the character
of a Negotiator; his purpose is said to have been to propose the
retreat of the army of the Patrice R cossrv, which is somewhat
endangered by the situation of General ARTIGA I."

A number of people lately assembled at the town
of Kilcroan, in the half-barony of Ballymore, County
Galway, for the purpose of rescuing cattle impound-
ed for tent, when the assailants fired on the keepers,
and shot one of them, J. Flynn, through the fore-
head, and severely wounded his tellow-keeper in one
of his eyes ; the former almost instantly expired, but
the latter is likely to do well.
HAT-MA It KET THEATRE.—Thursday Mr. BCT TER-
TON, jun. made his first appearance at this Theatre,
as my Lord Duke, in High Life Below Stair:. His
conception of the character was, in general, correct ;
and it, in some parts, he fell short of Mr. Ltsrox, in
others he certainly excelled him ; in saying so, we do
not mean any disparagement to that excellent actor.
No one knows better than Mr. LISTON how to put
the audience in good humour, and it too often hap-
pens that he sacrifices his own judgment, as a perfor-
mer, to in•oduce that effect. Mr. BrfTERTON is an
actor that deserves to be encouraged. We conceive
him fully equil to the higher walks of genteel Co-
medy, and in that line must prove an acquisition
to the London Stage. In some of the passages be
mixed the Gentleman with the Servant; but his s*.
cepticm throughout was veil, flattering, and met with
that approha,tioa which it deservedly suer ted.l
