" The brigs Marsuuin and Patine have arrrived
here—the former from Alexandria, and the latter from
Algieri. The blockade of Algiers is continued with
the greatest vigour. The two fa igates which left Brest,
and the Bellona, have taken their stations before Algiers
and Bona. The telegraph horn Toulon has announced
to the Commerce of Marseilles, that several small cor-
sairs have escaped from Algiers."
Accounts from Rochfort, also received this morning,
state, that the Faurin and Gremtdier brigs of war, have
sailed from the above port, in quest of the Colombian
privateers who captured a French vessel from Cadiz.

The Paris Papers which 'arrived last night, contain
advice' from the two great hotbeds of political misrule
and civil confusion in our put of the world—Constan-
tinople and Madrid—which are likely to have great
influence on its future tranquillity. Those from Con-
stantinople, which are of the 26th ultimo, speculate
in the most positive and •confideit terms, upon the
determination of the Porte to resist the demands

The news from Madrid, is nearly as important as the
foregoing, as it s eat that the Spanish Monarch will
be soon left to his own resources, and that, if he mean to
play the despot any longer, it mast be with his own
means alone, as well as at his own exclusive ri.k. 'The
approaching evacuation of Spain by the French is no
longer problematical; and it will be speedily seen,
whether the present prostration orthe S?anish people
is the effect of choke or comptilsion.

Dispatches were received yesterday at the Coloniil
Office from Lieutenant-General Sir H. Tongan, K.C.B.

We have received Halifax Papers to the SOth of June.
The agents of the English East India Company brought
forward 5000 chests of tea in one day,which all sold at
high prices. It would appear that .the northern parts
of the United States ate likely to be In part supplied
with smuggled tea and India goods, through the British
North American settlements. There had been, much
interest excited in Halifax, by the trial of the'Crew of
the ship Peggy, for assaulting and imprisoning the
Captain, and taking from him the command of the ship.
The Mate was found guilty, the others acquitted. The
Jury recommended the Mate to mercy. The colony of.
Nova Scotia appears to be generally flourishing. We
find great rivalship in agricultural improvements, the
establishment of an Agricultural S and of the,
usual accompaniment of the English name, horse races.

RECg!TION OF HER ROYAL HIGHNESS TILE

alltßti;sti,
Mar Hatherielgh,after Divine Service, on Sunday morning: stopped
to take refreshment at Stevenstown, the seat of Lnrd Roue; and
arrived at Ilfracombe at eight o'clock in the evening.
There has been no town which her Royal Highness has visited
doting her present tour in the West of England, where her
Royal Highness has experienced a mews reapecttal reeeptiee, or a
more enthusiastic welcome, than in- the beautiful and romantic
watering piece of Ilfracombe. The weather was anpropitimis
for the greater part of the day in Sunday; but towards even-
ing ft cleated away sufficiently to enable the loyal inhabitants of
that delightful little town, and the adyacent onaiotry, to mumble
in great numbers, for the purpose of manifesting their respect
to so distinguished a Member of the Royal Family. Trim.
phal arches, composed of evergreens, intermixed with them,
flags, Ste. were throws across the street in various places; the
fronts of most of the houses were oenamented in the ume simple
but pleasingmanner ; and the shipping in tie harbour hoisted their
gayest flags.. Upon her Royal Illsghtursa's appearance the bells tag
a merry peal. Salutes were areal Dear the rocks at Wildenmottk,
and from a revenue cutter in the harbour; and the Royal Standard
was hoisted at the signal post in Capetern Hill. Her Royal Highoos
was autelia in her travelling carriap by the Princess Carkei
ald Niel trence. On entering the town the horses were takes
ealtuf the carriage, with her Royal Highness's permission, and
,pmeedeti by a band of music, lags, and Genthtmee on horsehan,
tits Royal Party, amidst she deafening applause of- the 'unending
natidtude, were drawn by twenty-four sailors, dressed in Sloe
jackets and white trousers, through the town, to the house of Janes
Meek, Rua. where her Royal Highaem and the Ladies accompash
big her, attended by Colonel Cooper, Sir Spam Martin, and Mr.
Douglas, sue of the Membersofhis Royal Highness's Coutuil,dind
and slept. Monday morning the weather was rather hazy, *ad the
hills were enveloped in mist. This rendered it unfavenarabk
for her Royal Highness to view, with the advantage that fist
weather would have 'forded, the romantic scenery chick
surrounds the town and harbour. After partaking of an fatly break.
fast, her Royal Highness and sake embarked at 7 o'clock on board
the Comet steam packet, amidst the same enthusiastic manifestation
of respectful and attentive feeling, en the part of the public, as that
,which bad characterized her Royal Hisbnesicentrance into the
town on the preceding evehing ; the public quay, from one end
to the other, being covered with carpeting strewed with Bowers,
and otherwise decorated in the moat tasteful manner, Her
nerd Highness seemed to be deeply elikar of the respect
weigh was thewn to her, and crud eseeade as she walked along
din quay, to acknowledge the animated cheers at the people in the
aide and graeious manner. The most perfect good order
Maliglembettalle and her Royal Highness embarked amidst the ad•
mkition, applause, and cordial good wishes of the metalled
ants.
illaitEt

The Royal carriages having been shipped on board the Meteor
steam-vessel, at high water, the Comet and Meteor put to sea the
moment her Royal Highness was on board. From the tooderaie
state of the weather, although hazy, there can be doubt that her
Royal Highneut would reach Pembroke-yard early In the ahem."

ENGLISN OPERA HOUSL—Lestnight the Barbel-of
Seville was performed to a very numerous and fashion-
able auditory. Previous to the commencement uf the
Opera, Mr. BARTLEY addressed the audience. He
informed them that Miss PATON had met with an acci-
dent in coming to the Theatre, by the overturning of her
carriage ; but that though she was considerably bruised
and agitated, she had, sooner than cause a change of
the performances, attended the Theatre, and hoped
for their indulgence. This was received with gene-
ral applause ; and Miss PATON on her appearance
was warmly greeted. Though .evidently much agi.
tated, she went through the part with surprising
naivete and admirable effect. Her song of oAn (X
Man" was delightfully sung, and loudly encored.—
Indeed her whole performance deserved the repeated
cheers with which it was Miaowed. Figarrit by Mr.
Pavan;; Fiorillo, by Mt. P 0; Bartel°, by MT.
BARTLEY; and Alosseise. by. 1. Witasco, were all
very effective. Toe sewM fame of 'the Se&axes
Wife was repeated; sad the way in which it is got 111)
really does the Theatre great credit. Much of the act-
ing is perfection.
A very curious scene occurred on Wednesday sea.
sight, at the Dublin Theatre. The Opera of Guy Mae.
owing was performed. Miss C— played Julia Map
string, and sung her songs horribly out of tune. In .the
duet a Now hope, now fear," her screaming was more
discordant than the notes of a peacock. The audience
laughed, and BRA HAM tittered. The Lady became
engaged, and the audience became more tunny. At
length her (wry row to such a pitch, that hissing super-
seded'. the less angry manifestation of dislike, She
darted forward, and commanded the orchestra to cease,
and she addressed the audience in the following manner:

strutted tad; and shouts of laughter and hissing accom-
panied ler retitement. She did not appear afterwards.
SUDDEN DzaTn.—.Monday evening last, a Gentle-
man named °newt, a resident at Sutton Valence, vet out front
that place tia foot to go to Langley, a village about two miles from

men pausing in a cart, he beckoned to them, on which they alighted
