..csrs Of the Philadelphia Theatre for up
yards Of twenty years, have announced the dis
.a,n,;on Of their partnership. Mr.. Warren has
sen the whole theatrical concern upon him
.sw and will have the management hereafter.
The ,acket ship Cambria, arrived at Phila-
,.,ob;a. has brought London papers to the Oath
I,ls--four days later than those received by
s,rmer arrivals. We find nothing in the Phila-
a.Ipbia extracts that can be considered impor-
,snt. The principal article they contain is the
official report made to the Emperor of Russia
on The secret societies and alleged conspiracies
s,;d 10 have occasioned the rebellious explo-
SION which signalized his accession to the
throne. Agreeably to the report OF the Com
m;ssioners, the rami6cations of the conspiracy
extended throughout the empire, In almost eve
~ province ofwhich organized bands of reform

adjustment OF a representative government.
The news from the manufacturing districts
Of England possesses mournful interest.
The distresses of the Spital6eld weavers e
oual in intensity those of their brethren in the
north Of England. More than 5000 of them
depend on the public contributions for their
support, and the fountain of private charity
seemed nearly exhausted. But for fresh do
nation Of loool from his Majesty, the commit
tee must have closed on the goth of July.
The distress in he manufacturing districts
Of Scotland exceeds, perhaps, that OF Lanca-
shire or any part Of England. l, is stated, fol
example, in letter from Glasgow, that in the
small town Of Mayhole, in Ayrshire, the inha
bitants Of which only amounted to 5000, there
1853 persons out of employment.
The notices of the harvest in England, are
favorable; yet knowledge of this fact does not
appear TO have had any effect on the price OF
grain. The truth is that an average crop will
no longer supply the wants of England, with
its increased population.
By the contents of the German papers, it ap-
pears that in Poland there is abundance of corn;
but very different is the state of Sweden, where
failure OF he harvest and consequent scar
city are fully expected.
Besides this calamity, distressing ravages
were committed by FIRE in various parts Of the
country.
Distress in Ireland 1.-The distress in Ireland
Is not confined TO the poor weaver; the highest
srees Of the forest are bending to the storm
men who have passed through long life with
honor to themselves, and solid advantage tc
their country, are obliged to yield to the heavy
pressure ofthe times; names to day and yester
DAY are mentioned which command every mans
sympathy and respect. We trust the report ex.
aggerates, and that men who should be happy
and comfortable when almost about to retire
from the transitory scenes of this world, will
not be visited with the caamities to which Sc
many have already fallen victims.
Mr.. Alexander, one of the most extensive
millers in Ireland, has stopped payment This
