The Spanislh emigrants received their monthly allow. ance yesterday, inclu(ding the wvhole of the lists. Saturday was the day on which the payments. became due, but th( emigrants werc then given to understand that no furthet relief could bc afforded them from Governmient. This in- tention has, however, been changed, and2 asentiment of lu- nanity allowed te prevail. New York papers to the 2d inst. were received yester- (day. Accounts had reached Baltiinore fromn Havannah, that an emblsargo had been laid at the latter place. in conIse- qulence of an expedition having been fitte(I ont, consisting ofarinel launches, for the suppression of piracy. Informa- tion had been pre iouaiy received bv the Governor of Ha- vainnah, that many piratical hbats wvcre on the coast to the windward. Havannah was said to be sickly.

I)RLuTY-LANE T HFATRE-.- The M/larriaec of Figaro was repeated last night witlh the same cast of characters as that of Satur- day evening. iMiss Graddon appeare(d for tile second tilne on these boards as thc volatile Susaanan. We have beeni told that she has been called upon to perforni this arduous character at a very shlort iiotice ; and if this be the fact, her effbrts are undoubtedly entitled to much greater praise than they could otherwi,edemanf. Aliss Grad- don's musical education appears to have been carefullv sunerintend. c(l. She sings with considerable taste; but her voice has not sutli. cient power to sRstain her in the first walk of opera. She is calcu- lated to appear to much greater advantage as a concert-singer than as an adjunct of the operatc corps. Her reception IAst night was ex- tremely favourable, and she was honourel with one or two encores. In our opinion, her most pleasing effort was in that sweet air which Sesaniza sings while she is fitting her cap on the Page. M\iss Graddon's execution of it was extremely chaste and appropriate.
