L(*iliON : .7110 .VD di, JUNE .ec, 1817 THE. llast Wee:i has been signalieed by <nate/mark able events of an internal kind,—the acr i nittal irdWat son and Es associates, and the opening of NVater*.x) Bridge ; nor are we sure which event is ent:t:ed to the greater note, thmigh in point of utility t.e latter ntust be estirr.ated at the highest rate. Another circumstance that has contributed to enliven the public mind is the acting of Palma and Georges, connected with the mo tion for prohibiting them which was moved on behalf of Mr. Taylor, of the Opera House, in the Court of ‘Chuneeryl 'These incidents, we repeat it, have served by turns to enliven•the chit-chat of the town, and some of them have furnished matter for disquisitions of the greatest lint!. Commotions arc more and more subsiding in France, .and throughout the •Continent. Whilst the systems of pacification is thus extending here, however, the af fairs of the nest morld,.eapecially these of South Ame rica, are becoming more enibrolled than ever in blood. Intelligence from New Spain, received yent--:rday, states that the Viceroy of Mexico has declared . for the insur gents. He had been connected with the Heroes of the C.trte.; of obi Spain ; and it is rather curious to observe, - that he has taken this hostile step against his govern s:lc:lt just ❑t the moment when she was about to pro claim an amnesty for the patriot cause. Reluctant con cessions are not the most thankfully received. Had the another country at first adopted this commendable course, it is probable that no revolution would have leen attempted in her colonial states. Policy, if nut justice, ought long since to have dictatcd'that concilia tion which now appears to have been extorted 1)y ne cessity. What is called the Budget was submitted ,by the Cliance:lor of the Es.chequer to the house of Com mons on Friday night, aid is fixed for discussion to-morrow. 1 chequer Bus render fresh taxes .quite unnecessary. We certainly-are not. disfaxied to depreciate this system of " ways and means ;'' but cannot help confessing that it carries with it an ap pcaranee if rating off " the erril day." However, this reserve as to tittarity will, in all probability, be 4net with the triumphant statement, that the Four per Cents. have actually advanced !bur and a half since Monday. We know this, and ate glad of it; and we •abuuld be happy to Etid, altliourli no great friends to betting, that the ex-tins:ye betl-whidi have been raade, that Three per Cent.

Paris Papers to , lho nth hi.' , . he , •r. - ree6veil by us--- 'they state, that the •Spanish . Govtrinnent has adopted every precaution to prevent any assistance from Portu gal to the disaffected in Spain. It is very probable that the insurrection in the Bra zils will prevent the Archduchess Leopoldine from go ing out to that quarter, and induce her Royal Consart to join her in Europe. A private letter from Madrid, dated June :5, says, I• The prevent situation of • Portugal has fixed • the attention of our Gswerninent. Orders have been sent into all the frontier places to arrest.alid watch with the greatest care all the Portuguese who should enter Spain. Measures of, precaution have been also taken in the fortresses, and porticularly at Batlp.joz. We are assured that letters written • from Portugal have been intercepted, which are connected) with the plans of the partisans of the - Cortes to excite troubles in Spain. Detachments of the garrisons of Vittoria, Burgos, and Valltulolid, have received orders•to repair with speed to the frontiers of the kingdom of Leon. Accounts • from Barcelona, dated June 4, say, '" Lacy's business is drawing towards a conclusion. The preliminary privet:if - big,'" are ishci ;th ey could not but be long, as it was nettossary to examine .a great number of witnesses, and complete their deposkions atTteeably•to the rules prescribed by the regulations of the aemv.

A sum equal to two per cent. upon the whole amount subscribed. will be appropriated, out of the revenue of the national domains, to the_gradual redemption of the debt. Private letters from Paris state, that tit,: King of France made a point of not showinLr himself in public on the anniversary of the battle of Waterloo ; and that heiset off for St Cloud, trom which residence he will not return till the 7th of July, the anniversary of his second ent:a Ice itnto Paris. The English Ambassador, lutwever, gave a grand dinnerin celebration of the vic tory of Waterloo. The - following are some of the details of the arrest of Santimi. This man had obtained passports in Eng land to go to Italy, where he pretended to have some: flimily affairs to arrange ; ht' was strictly watched in this country, and having passed by Kragrnfart about the middle of last month,'he was arrested on the frontiers of Lornlxtrdv, and conducted undr.r an escort to Milan. It is said that papers of great importance were fbund upon him. Ile was apprehended on a road di&rent from that which was prescribed to him, and which he should. have taken if he meant only to go to Genoa, and from' thence to Corsica. The Princess of Wales was expected at Rome on the Ist of June. General Vandamme has embarked at the Texel for America. The Royal Court of Paris 'is. occup;cd with an im portant and interesting case. It is that of Madame 'Victaire de' Levis de Mirepoix Ursulino, religieuse, who in the course of the rtwolution retired to England, with her sole establishment, and founded a very flourishing convent there. She etkinis her lawfdchare of the inkeritailce of ,her fatLer the late Marquis Mi repoix, who died at Venice 1793.

This was a subject left to th final deecision of the Alliel Powers by the treaty of Vienna; and the interference., of England is said to have chiefly contributed to the disposition above stated. The.D.uke of DeyonLire, Who gave such a .guisbed reception to the young Grand Duke of Itussit when in England, has been invited to St. Petersburgh to the wedding of the Cesan.l Duke Nichula3, who has: left Sweden to proceed to that city. The Earl of I'owis, Lord Lieutenant of •Skropshire,, has examined the depot ofarms for ;hat ilistrict, situated near ,Shrewslany. It is rumoured that a barrack of eOO men will be formed there—that an additional troop of yeomanry will be raised In the town—and the pre sent troops be augmented to 80 men each, instead 1 60. The Irish Papers which we have 'received, including those .of Dublin to the IFth, represent the price of corn on that decline. This, with the prospect of an early and good ,harvest, has increased the Sintitude of the poor under their present privations—and the as excited by the general distress Lis, in consequence, nearly aub sided.

On Thuriday night was presented to the pulilt• a novelty in the concert-room of the Opera-house. It consisted of recitations by 'Nlonsieur Talma and Ma. demoiselle Georges, from the trN , edies of Raeinr, Voltaire, and De la Fuse, interspersed with select pieces of instrumental and vocal musie.—The parts of this plays , reeited were, filial Racine's l'hedre and. Androtaaque, Manlius Capitolinus from De la Fosse,. and CEilipe of Voltaire. Madame Georges, in figure, resembles Mrs. Siddons ; she has the same dignity of countenance, but her voice, particularly in its under tones, is not so flue as that of the British Melpomene. Monsieur alma's person is handsome: as a performer, he skewed that he had a full Inowledge.of lii3 profese sion. They were both most highly applauded. 1)til; it Y•LA N bis Theatre closed on Friday. The following .kilress upon the occasion was spoken by Mr. Rae:— " AN r steNr--T anti instructed in the name I the Maria jetrent ;n* the: flieatre, to return }on thanks for the' up. port and patramig.. ss hie!' we have received' toting the present sea. son.

Her reception was truly flattering, and highly merited. Her style sf singing partakes more of the pleasing and impressive, than overloaded with MA perfhtous scientific decorations, with which the present theatrical harmony so much abounds, ." Cease your .funning," was given with unusual sweetness and tint plicity, am} was loudly encored. :Her figure is elegant and interesting ; but -.her dialogue tither too rapid. With a little More experience on the stage, Mini Bug. gins cannot fail of proving a valuable aoquisitiondo the musical clip:lament of this Theatre. She possesses it strong voice, . and the advantage of being extremely articulate, and is a pupil of Mr. Horn. It is impossi ble to speak in too high terms of Mica Kelly—her per sonification of Luey %vas nature itself. The Macheath of Mr. Horn was much applauded, and in the air of ‘‘ how happy could I be," he was more than successful. In short, the Opera is got imp with much-effect, and considerable talent was display's" throughout.
