NTAMTSCII, IN LOWEIIMOLDAVIA,APRIL 6.

The Russian Consul at Jassy, as well as at Bu-
charest, having received orders to return to Russia,
this circumstance, and the unauthenticated report of
the advance of the Turks, spreads terror among the
Moldavian Boyars, who are the more to be pitied,
as they not only have taken no share in the late in-
trigues, but are compelled, by Prince Ypsilanti's
corps, to comply with extravagant requisitions for
horses and provisions. They still continue to emi-
grate to Bessarabia.

STOCKHOLM, APRIL to.
For this week past there has been an uncommonly
active exchange of Couriers between this City and
Christiana. Numerous Councils are held which are
attended by the Counsellors of State of both King-
doms, and Couriers are dispatched as soon as they
are concluded.

It is said that the King has signified to the Norwe-1
Sian Diet that if it will put off the discussion respect-
mg the abolition of the rights of the Nobility, and the
next Diet should come to the same resolution as the
two preceding, his Majesty will then give his con-
sent. It is not doubted that the Diet has accepted
this proposal.
We received, at a late hour last night, the French
Journals of Friday and Saturday, from which we
bave selected the most important paragraphs :

FRONTIERS OF MOLDAVIA, APRIL 2.
Re learn, by the way of Jassy, that Prince Michael
Aso hash in concert with the Noldavina Dorards

and the most wealthy inhabitants of the provide&
established a Central Committee for directing the
operations of the Greco-Moldavian Army, and pro•,
viding for its wants of every kind. The voluntary
contributions by the inhabitants of Odessa, and of
different parts of Greece, have been sufficiently con-
siderable to procure with rapidity uniforms and other
accoutrements -for more than 30,000 men, and to
supply the Greek Volunteers, who offer to serve,,with
arms and ammunition.

RAGUSA, APRIL 7.
According to accounts from the Peloponneseans,
the insurrection of that part of Greece has, on this
occasion, taken place merely because the people had
certain information that their secret had been dis-1
closed to the Turks by the agents of a European.—
The Mainotes have descended from their mountains,
which are inaccessible to the Turks. One division
of their army is besieging Misitra (the ancient Sparta).
The other has advanced to Trapolizza, in the centre
of the Morea. Some Bishops, followed by Papas,
or married Priests, who perform the service of the
country churches, have marched at the head of the
armed inhabitants of their districts. The old men,
the women, and the children of the richest families,
have retired to the Isle of Zante. The insurgents of
the Motea, like those of Moldavia and Wallachia,
have promised security and protection to the peace-
able Turks.

The enemies of the Spanish Constitution, ever since
their factious hopes have been reanimated by the pro-
bability of a foreign invasion, lave been extremely
busy, both at home and abroad, in their labours to
bring about a restoration to the old order of things.
In the province of Alaba, a conspiracy against the
Constitution, which had been long forming in secret,
burst into open activity on an idea that the present
was a favourable conjuncture. The head of this con-
spiracy was a Friar, and last Good Friday the people
of eight villages in the neighbourhood of Salvatierra,
who had agreed to rise, having assembled there,
this Friar preached against the new order of things,
and when the Sermon was over called out " Down
with the Constitution—Long live the Inquisition."
By the exertions, however, of the Constituted Audio-
rides of the country, who received the most prompt as-
sistance from the well-disposed part of the population,
the hopes of the conspirators were frustrated. The
attempt to excite the Biscayans completely failed,
for not a single Biscayan joined the insurrectionary'
standard, though that province has lost many of its
privileges by the Revolution. The moment the news
of the insurrection reached Bilboa, the Militia of that
city, consisting chiefly of merchants and persons of,
distinction, flew immediately to arms, and instantly
advanced against the Insurgents.
Let us hope that now that all prospect of a visita-
tion from the North has vanished for the present,
that the news will have the effect of either in-
stantly restoring domestic peace throughout Spain,
or arming the Constitutional Government with such
vigour, as to divest a civil war of every chance of a
long continuance.

We have received to-day a further supply of Arne.
rican Papers, to the 14th of April. They contain a
letter from an Officer on board the Macedonian,
giving the first direct information of the barbarous
outrage committed on the crew of that frigate, by
the Spaniards at Callao. After relating the circum-
stances attending Lord COCHRANE'S gallant exploit of
cutting out the Esmeralda frigate from under the
batteries of Callao, the writer proceeds:

" On the morning of the 7th, we sent, as usual, a boat ashore
to market, with Mr. Marshall, Midshipman, of New York (son
of Dr. Marshall, of the Navy Yard), and nine men : when the
boat's crew were ordered to toss their oars by Mr. Marshall,
being close to the wharf, the soldiers on guard fired into her;
killed Mr. Marshall and four of the men, four more badly
wounded, and one only escaped to bring the news. Those who
were not killed, or wounded at first were pelted while in the
water with stones, by these blood-thirsty villains. There is no
excuse for them ; the American flag was flying in her—the same
boat went on shore every morning.
" The crew were selected as being the most trusty and peace-
able men in the ship. Mr. Marshall was selected that morning,
as particular confidence could be placed in him, though but of
perhaps eighteen. It is impossible for me to describe the sen-
sations this affair has caused on board ; the feelings of all are al-
most wound up to frenzy for their murdered shipmates, and
the indignity offered to our flag. But I have not yet done.
" On the morning of the 9th, the schooner Rampart, of Bal-
timore, got under weigh, by agreement with the Authorities on
shore, to receive her cargo. Immediately on her coming within
gun-shot of the castles, they opened on her, with all the vessels,
gun-boats, &c. in the harbour. The Captain and Officers (as
there was but little wind, and that on shore) immediately aban-
doned her, and she sunk before the numerous gun-boats, &c.
who valiantly came out to take her, could get her ashore.
" We now communicate with the shore by flag of truce—l
hope we shall communicate no other way. Are our innocent
shipmates, the pride and future hopes of our country, to be thus
wantonly massacred !—butchered, and even denied ehristian
burial? There is, in my opinion, but one way to make them
atone for it, and I hope the Government will adopt that without
a moment's deliberation.

" At the time Mr. Marshall was murdered, Captain Downes
and Mr. Rodgers were in Itima. On Captain Downes' passing
the Viceroy's Palace, several Officers and Otizens were overheard
to say—' There goes the rascal : we will have his blood next !'
The excuses made by the Government for all these out-
rages is, that they were committed by an enraged populace. I
have before heard of mobs committing the greatest excesses, re-
, fisting the civil and military power, flying in the face of justice;
but never until now, did I hear of a mob, which at the most
could not consist of 1500 men, taking possession of castles, armed
vessels, batteries, &c. defended by at least 4000 men.
" Captain Downes and Mr. Rodgers had to disguise them-
selves to get on board. Captain Downes left all his baggage
and two servants, in Litnr; whether he will ever get them or
not is uncertain.
" P.S. A Bag of truce has just come off which brings the
news that Mr. Marshall is not dead, but wounded in the hospi-
tal-13th November."

THE ICING'S VISIT TO COFENT-GARDENi
THEATRE.

HIS MAJESTY having been pleased to signify his
intention of honouring this Theatre with his presence
yesterday, a genuine honest feeling caused a crowd
to assemble in all the avenues of the I louse beiiire
the doors were opened. The Public were airnitted
at six o'clock, and in the course of a quarter of an
hour every part of the House was crowded. A mop
genteel—a more splendid audience never graced the
walls of a Theatre. In the dress and first circles the
front rows were nearly filled with Ladies. This gave
a lightness and elegance to the House that we never
remember to have witnessed on any similar occasion,
and it was peculiarly striking when the whole assem-
bly stood up. Though crowded in every part, from
the boxes to the upper gallery, hardly any disorder
could be traced. There was no temptation to try the
strength of parties, there was no angry spirit to
soothe, no turbulent malcontents to conciliate, but
all was loyalty, order, and harmony. The only dis-
turbance that occurred was momentary, and arose
from the crowded state of the pit. One or two fe-
males, and several men, found themselves too se-
verely indisposed to remain in the seats which they
had gained, and were in consequence humanely re-
ceived into the lower boxes and passed to the lobby.
This movement being misunderstood in various ways,
called forth hisses from one part of the audience and
plaudits from another, which, however, were but of
very brief duration.
A few minutes before seven o'clock, two Yeomen
of the Guard made their appearance, and were re•
ceived with applause. One took his station on the
stage, near the KING'S box; the other on a small
platform thrown over the orchestra. The box itself
was ornamented nearly in the same manner as when
his MAJESTY last honoured this House with his pre-
sence, being surmounted with a crimson canopy, and
having the Royal Arms displayed in front.
A Guard of Honour marched into Hart•street,
Prince's-place, &c. about six o'clock ; Sir ROBERT
BAKER and Mr. BIRNIK, the Magistrates, were in at-
tendance; also Townsend, Sayer, and a numerous
assemblage of officers and patrol. The attendants
waiting the arrival of the Kra°, were—Mr.GARDI•
NER, the Groom of the Great Chamber ; the Exon
in Waiting, and the entrance set apart for the KING,
in Prince's-place, was lined with the Yeomen Guard.
Mr. HARRIS and Mr. C. KEMBLE, the Proprietors,
and Mr. Fawcerr, the Manager, appeared in splen-
did Court dresses to receive the KING, with nine
large candles, in handsome silver candlesticks, for
themselves and certain attendants upon the KING to
carry, according to ancient custom. The floor of
the hall and stairs on which his MAJESTY was to as-
cend, was covered with handsome carpets.
The Duke of CLARENCE arrived at a quarter be-
fore seven o'clock, dressed in his full uniform as an
Admiral. His Royal Highness was received with mi-
litary honours. Prince LEOPOLD'S carriage arrived
soon after. His Royal Highness was accompanied
by the Duchess of KENT, the Duchess of CLARENCE,
and her Royal Highness's cousin, Prince ERNEST
HOIIENLOELANGENBOURG. Their Royal Highnesses
proceeded to Prince LEoPor.D's box, which adjoins
the KING'S private box. His MAJESTY and suite ar-
rived exactly five minutes before seven, in five Royal
carriages, escorted by a party of the Life Guards.
In the first carriage were the Gentlemen Ushers
and Exons in waiting.—ln the second, the Page of
Honour, the Equerry, the Aide-de-Camp, and the
Silver Stick in waiting.—ln the third, the Treasu-
rer of the Household, the Comptroller of the House-
hold, the Master of the Robes, and the Groom of
the Bedchamber.—ln the fourth, the Duke of WEL-
LINGTON, wearing the uniform of the Royal Horse
Guards, and carrying a gold stick; the Vice-Cham-
berlain and the Captain of the Yeoman Guard.—ln
the fifth was his MAJESTY, wearing a Field Mar-
shal's uniform and the Order of the Garter, attended
by the Master of the Horse and Lord Lovatse, in
waiting for the first time since his appointment.
The instant his MAJESTY alighted from his car-
riage, loud shouts of huzzas were raised by the po-
pulace, and the same demonstrations of loyalty ac-
companied the whole of his MAJESTY'S progress to
and from the 'Theatre.

At seven o'clock the sound of military music was
heard, and the KING entered the Royal box, IICCORI•
panied by the Dukes of CLARENCE and WELLING-
TON. A shout of universal approbation and delight
burst from the assembled thousands ; and the females
in the boxes vied with their husbands and brothers
in manifesting their exultations at beholding their
Monarch. A placard was displayed in the pit, with
the words " Welcome our beloved KING r The Per-
formers now came forward, and sung GOD save Me
KING. The audience were on the alert to give addi-
tional effect to .every 'line that could be made pecu-
liarly complimentary to his MAJESTY. When the
singers came to the lines—
" Scatter Ma enemies
" And make them fall,"
_ _ - -

shouts of the most enthusiastic applause attested the
anxiety of all present to subscribe to the patriotic
sentiment; but a still more gratifying expression of
loyal affection was elicited by the lines—
.. Thy choicest gifts in store
" On Grows be pleased to pour,
" Long may he reign !"
Here the voices of the vocalists were completely
drowned in the torrent of ardent gratulation which
poured forth from every part of the House. It closed
amidst continued demonstrations of exalted satisfac-
tion. The KING acknowledged the affectionate greet-
ings of his people by bowidg. repeatedly. He then
seated himself in the chair of state which had been
provided for him. The Duke of CLARENCE sat on
his left hand, and the Duke of WELLINGTON stood
on his right, and remained there till the close of the
performances.
The vocal performers having retired, the curtain
drew up, and Mr. FAWCETT and Mrs. DAVENPORT
came forward as Mr. and Mis. Hardcastic, to corn-
mence the Play of She Stoops to Conquer. They were,
however, met with cries of (llf, e;"_,. Encore,"
and "Jude Britannia." In consequence of the predo-
minance of the latter call, Mr. FAWCETT gave dim-
lions for the company to return, and Rule BriMai ill
was then sung. This ended, his MAJESTY and the
Duke of CLARENCE resumed their seats, and the
Play commenced. •
At the end of the Play, GOD save the King was
again sung. It called forth a repetition of the de-
monstrations of pleasure previously witncised. One

or two persons had the tetttrity to call ont " Gob
tare-Me Queen," but this wretched attempt to revive.
the differences lately so unhappily prevalent, was at
once dismissed with the indignant contempt it merited.
The interlude of " London Stars" was then per-
formed, and Mr. YATES went through his imitations
with great applause. The moment the curtain fell on
egis Piece, it was raised again, and "A Roland loran
Oliver" was begun. The humour of the Piece, and
the talents of the. performer% convulsed the whole
House with laughter, and his MAJESTY seemed most
heartily to enjoy the treat. At its close, is GOD rare
the King" was sung again, and again the audience
manifested high satislaction at seeing their beloved
Sovereign among them. Deafening huzzas (accom-
panied by the waving of hats and handkerchiefs) were
heard from all parts of .the House. His MAJESTY
bowed repeatedly in acknowledgment of the warm
atoning, ecstaci!s inspired by his presence, and evi-
dently experienced the highest pleasure that a good
and great mind can know, in receiving the indubita-
ble evidencis'of his subjects' love. He retired amidst
their continued theerings.
The Yeomen in front of the Royal Box were re-
lieved between the acts according to custom, and se-
veral boxes immediately adjoining that in which the
Kim; was seated, were partially filled by the Officers
of his suite. The whole business of the evening was
cf the most gratifying character. Nothing could ex-
ceed the enthusiasm with whiCh his MAJESTY was re-
ceived, but that was equalled by the decorum which
prevailed in every part till the Royal Party retired!
