SAM CHIPS'S' kV. the (anions drier, rode the winning

Accounts have been received from Captain FREY-
CINET, who, it will be recollected, left France on a
voyage of discovery for neve lands beyond the ices
of the Antarctic Pole. They announce, that a few
months age, he was at the Isle of Bourbon. It is
from Port Louis that M. FItEYCINET has written to
ItIS friend, M. Dt..FONTAINEi, and dispatched for the
Museum of N History cases of birds, fishes,
and plaints, which being collected by himself, and
his Officers and crew, all well-informed men, full of
enterprising zeal, cannot fail of being a valuable ac-
quisition to the King's Cabinet,
REDUCTIONS IN TUE ARMY.—II is Still asserted
that the following reductions are to take place be-
fore the meeting s f Parliament : I nfa nt ry Regiments
are to be brought down to the 80th Foot; and, it
is Said, that the Cavalry is to come as low av the
16th light Dragoons. All the second Field Officers
Of Regiments are to he reini•red to half-pay. The
srhole of the Royal Artillery Drivers, together with
the Horse Artillery, two 13Attalinos of Foot Artil-
lery, and one of Artillery Invalids, wilt also fall un-
der the necessary pruning hand of ecounmy. Con.
utterable reductions are likewise to be made in all
Cie Military Deliariments. Sinecure places will, of
Course, remain in datu quo.
DRUR Y-LA NF.—Last night, in the comedy of
Sreed the Plou:!Ii, our old favourite MuNneer re-
sumed his thaferlpr of Sir Abel Dandy. On his
entree he was greeted with reiterated plaudits ; and
his personification of the pirrt throughout, even had
lie newer before been a favourite with the Public,
would have jitstift,d the warmes! anticipations of de-
light. Mr. rENLEY hustled through the part of Bob
Bandy with cf.tisitlershle spirit. Mr. H. KEMBLF
played Henry Blunt/ford. This Gentleniun iunitusss
in the estimation of the Public. Miss SMITHSON Pin.
tiered the part of Miss Blandford very intereiting ;
the was loudly and deservedly applauded.
Mr. SINCLAIR, of Covetet.garden Theatre, who
has been gratifying his old friends at Edinburgh with
a high musical treat along with Miss thritler, has
proceeded to Aberdeen, to give a farewell concert to
the inhabitants of that city, under whose patronage
he made his first public appearance as a singer ; after
which, it is said, Mr. S. takes his departure for Itely,for
improvement, and perhaps to remain there for some
years. Miss BYRNE has also gone to Aberdeen.
Mations, BELLGER. announced to appear at New
Drury, as Don Carlos, in the Duennu, is a native
of this kingdom, but received her musical education
in Italy. It seems she was 'niroduced to the Sub•
Committee by Mr. KEAN, who heard her sing, during
Isis late trip to the Continent.
IMPORT OP FOREIGN RAIN.--The aggregate ate*
tage of Wheat the five lasi weeks is 795. 9d. It is
therefore probable, that the ports will shut on Mon-
day nest, against the importation of Foreign Wheat
from all places between the Eyder and the 13iddassoa.
