of some imitations of KEAN and Macaeasur, and they
were liberally applauded. Taken altogether, Mr.
Hamtarr's debut can hardly be accounted successful;
but the fact is, that the matter which he undertook to
deliver was such as no actor that ever we recollect to
have seen could have rendered acceptable. As a deli-
neator of American manners he may be more correct
than Mr. MATHEWS; but his pictures certainly are not
entertaining. Whether he is to be brought forward in

Letters from Buenos Ayres, received this morning to
the Sd December, state that 4,000 men were to be sent
immediately under the orders of General MANCULA,
against Monte Video, to commence the siege of that
place, whilst the main army was to proceed to Rio
Wade. Notwithstanding these preparations for pro.
suatiog the war with increased vigour, a general belief
prevailed, that its termination was !sear at band.

Estracts from the French Papers. which arrived last
sight, will be found under the usual bead; they con-
tain no intelligence of any importance.

The letters received this minims from Paris are full
of speculations on the subject of Count D'Osiata.'s
mission to this country. One of them is more curious
than probable, as it states that he is commissioned to
make a formal demand to the French Government for
the evacuation of Spain by the French troops, prepara•
wry to his demanding of the English Government to
withdraw its troops from Portugal.

We received this morning Brussels Papers to the 4th
instal which we see that the Netherlands has been just
recognised by the Porte, as one of the favoured Powers
those flags enjoy the privilege of a free, unrestricted,
and unconditional passage through the Dardanelles.—
An official communication to this effect was made on
the 21st ult. to the Chamber of Commerce, with an ac•

tompanying intimation that the shipping of the Ne-
therland; may henceforth proceed to Odessa, or any
other port of the Black Sea, with entire confidence.

does three, and great applause —Air," God save the King."
" The le of Clarence sad the Navy," three dates three.--
Air," Rule Britannia."
" The Royal Family."—Glee," Glorious Apollo."
The NOILS CHAIRMAN then said, that he regretted much it fell
to his lot to propose ,a toast which was to be drank in solemn silence,
and one in which he knew every one present would sympathise
with him—be meant the memory of his Royal Highness the Duke
of York. That illustrious peassetege was one whose philanthropy
was always ready at every call, and whose aid, if PRovunurca had
spared him would ever have been most willingly afforded to the
flociery. ;hank in solemn silence.
The None Cuaranse then gave —" The Navy and Army"...
three times three. Glee-0 Here's a htaith and long life to our

conspiracy, according to which several persons were to
assemble at Ludwigslust, where there is a royal palace,
as well as an arsenal, for the purpose of making them-

After this toast' came a procession of perms' who had been re-
scued from death through the efforts oldie Society. It was com-
posed of perms. of almost every age, each of whom carried a bible,
the gift of the Society, on their restoration to existence.—The effect
1 of this spectacle was very imposing and affecting, the band playing

the object of this conspiracy was not •positively
known, but that several persons were arrested on
suspicion of being implicated in it, and that their
arrest took place in consequence of certain indications
found among the papers of a functionary at Stuttgardt,
who had committed suicide soon after the discovery of
the plot. This statement is so strange in many points
of view, and so inconsistent with the profound silence
observed by the French and German Papers, that we
are inclined to reject it as wholly unworthy of credit.
Besides, it might be asked, what could the conspirators
want ? They could not aim at the forcible introduction
of the Constitutional system, as it exists alrtlscly in that
kingdom:neither could they have just cause of complaint
against the Emu, who, as every one knows, enjoys the
reputation of being a liberal-minded Prince. But should
the account, contrary to all probability prove true, it
would throw a discredit upon the friends of Constitu-
tional rule throughout Germany, from the effects of
whirls they could not soon recover.

A striking instance of female courage and presence
of mind, is recorded in these papers. A warehouse,
belonging to a merchant at Namur having been set on
are, in consequence of the blowing up of a barrel of
gunpowder, and the fire having communicated to several
casks of brandy, the persons who hastened to the spat to
render assistance were most paralysed in their exertions,
by a sense of the imminent danger which attended them.
Twentybarrels however weregot out by some courageous
individoals,who rolled them into the Meuse.' But this act
of courage was surpassed by the daughter of the mer-
chant, a young person twenty years of age, who
mounted by a ladder into the burning loft, threw thsee
barrels of gunpowder out of the window, and descend-
ing unhurt, had them placed in a boat, while her father,
ignorant of this heroic action, exhorted the crowd to let
every thing perish in the fire, rather than expose them-
selves to destruction. The following is an extract from
these Papers :
We learn, by a letter from a Physician at Batavia, that the Corn-
missary-Gtneral had ordered experiments to be made in the euhi-
Idiot of the white poppy, from which opium is extracted. The
trials hitherto made at Batavia have been perfectly suicessful, the
*pion obtained being of the very best quality.

Mr. PAULI:IIg, M.P. far Surrey, then said, that he was about to
take a liberty with their Noble Chairman. He was called
on to propose a toast, which he need not invite those present
Its AU a bumper, and an overflowing one too; but be much
wished that the task had devolved on bands mere able to do it
justice. On reflection, however, he thought that the best jus-
tice he could do it was, to give, without any comment, the
health of the Illustrious Duke at the head of the table.—(Loud
cheers.) Before he sat down, however, he should say, that they
bad lately seen the Noble Duke, as the Representative of this coun-
try at a foreign Court, where he represented oar beloved Sovereign
with a splendour, a liberality, and $ generosity, towards the nation
itself—(bear, hear I)—which, while it astooished foreigners, reflected
the highest honour on their Noble Chairman. He also represented
his Sovereign there, not in the trappings or splendour of Royalty.
but Is the most glorious attribute of the King of Wags, that 41
Mercy, and he was sure that every one present would jois with Ws
in drinking, " Health and long life to their Noble (Xdraay."—
Drank with free times three, and loud cheers.
The NozU Campus then rose, and assured the Assembly, that
he was most sensible of the kind and flattering manner in which
they bad drunk his health! At the same time, be would say, that,
although his Hon. Friend, if he would allow him so to call him
(Mr. Palisner) had dose him more than ample justice, in one re..
spree, yet this Charity wosidalways find him sincerely attached to
its interest, sad, whatever they called upon him, he would forward
their interests, as far as was la his power. He hoped and trusted
the benefits of the Sodetywould extend to distant nations,and it gave
hint great satisfaction to know that there were already two similar
establishments formed In a neighbouring nation. He had no hoes-
don to allude to the subject mentioned by ?dr. PaUmer, but as it
had been mentioned, be would say, that he was highly gratified
to find that his conduct abroad had given satisfaction at home—
(Alluding to his Grace's embassy to France). The only other ob-
servation he would make was, that he had gone over with a con-
scientious determination to 41: his duty in such a manner as would
do credit both to himself and to his country—(Loud cheers).
The Norms 011111131 AN then gave, "Prosperity to the Royal
Unman* Society, with three times three."
This toast was followed by a song from Mr. Taylor, beginning 1

Hawse, the Treasurer, read the Report, which he prefaced
tikoaltigreing that the company were called upon to support a Charity

the company for ald.The occurrences and proceedings of the
were interesting to every friend to homanity. He congratulated
the Public upon the accession of his Royal Highness the Duke of
Clarence to the Vice Patronship. Tbe Report then went on to
state, that during the last year three hundred and ten peruses had
been saved from drowning, and two hundred and eighteen claimants
rewarded. In addition to which, he begged to impress on the pub-
lie mind the numerous accidents prevented by drags, kept at the
various stations of the Society, in the ponds and canals surrounding
London, as well as on the Serpentine River. It particularly directed
its prayer for assistance to the friends and relations of those in&
viduals who, perhaps. its the midst of health and activity, were
gliding over the frozen surface, whilst death was treacherously lurk.

which were--His Royal Highness the -Duke of Cambridge. 101.

Readas to the detailed accounts in the Report. The Treasurer
then reed the list of subscriptions, amounting to upwards of 5001.
which was received with acclamations.
