From ihi New Vor\ Vutesrnau
0 THE BIRD OF NIGHT, WIUPPOOH-
Mi ILL.
Thou mouriful melodist of flight,
Whose song to solitude is given,
Why dost thou always shun the light,
As if in dread of peril driven ?
Why sad and singly dost thou pour
The musie of that evening lay,
So oft in darkness ulteiM o’er,
But never, never heard by day ?
Perliaps lliou art of holier birth
Than sunshine chovsters of air,
A sky burn spirit'sent to earth,
Where all beside is silent there.
Perhaps thy lay is caught from lyres,
That sympathising angels sweep,
Who touch to human woe the wires,
And olt o’er human frailty ween.
Or art thou the undying shade
Os Love, too early torn away,
Os Beauty, that came forth to fade,
Like mist beneath the morning ray?
Alas! that plaintive note may tell
Os sorrows that survive the tomb;
And ye’ it hath a joyous swell,
The sweeter for surrounding gloom.
Whate’er thy nature, lovely bird,
Thou hast an accent and a tore,
More pensive than the parting word
.Os lovers when they weep alone.
Thou hast a wildness in yhy voice,
An undeceiving eloquence
That long will make thy haunt my choice,
Though louder lays should call me thence.
The dawn of life has hurried by.
When first hope’s gilded banner stream’d,
And With it the unclouded-sky
That o’er my thornless path wiry gleam’d.
But, m'.nstrel, I have teamed like thee
To wail the day’s expiring light;
And hope, whate’er my doom may he,
To hail a soothing friend at night.

Spain. —lt appears by the latest intel

wts tranquility restored, and even social
confidence re-established, and so satisfac
tory was the state of the capitol consider

i who had been encamped on the square of

iafter having proceeded in great pomp <oj

the thanks of the authorities which was
conveyed in the followin'/ address :
“Fellow Ci,tizens —T he dangers which
threatened our liberties, you exerted your
selves so gallantly to defend, have happily
ceased, she municipal body returns to
its 1 ordinary duties, and you to your dom

the indestructible support which it posses

Madrid, July 11,
Tlie a-tillery which the mutiny f the
Guards had rendered necessary to be
brought out, was aKo taken back to the
Park; and the men necessary to do the
duty ot the garrison, were all that remain
ed under arms. Alter the rebellion of the
Royal Guards, it was natural to expect
that a vigilant, if not a suspicious eye
should be directed for some time to the l’ul
ace. Accordingly, we find a very singu
lar but pe.haps a neeessaiy order promul
gated bv the Marquis of Santa Cruz, the
new Major Down commanding t!e> chiefs
of the palace, under the responsibility of
their office, to fp.nit (he Service of their su-
Ibdlerns (o the performance of their stated
duties, to prevent them from abusing their!
Slight of acces (o the, Royal Person, by
whispering political suggestions in the
Royal ear, which may compromise his Ma
jesty's well b dug, and t.> leave to'tlie Sec
ceta ies of State ami. other public func
tionaries, the ta £ k of treati* g with his Mi
jesty on political topics. Those who diso
bey this order will nut only be dew ived of
their employments, but be removed from
the Roval Household. The militia of Ar
aojur*, actuated by the same jealou v ( f
evil counsellors, addressed an ene-getjc
representation ro the King on the 10'ii,
req'esting him to dismiss from his house
hold the enemies of the Constitutional sv
ileiii. This repreei\t’ation was transmitted
through the Secreta y “F S. for the Home
n*partmerit, to the M j >’- Domo of the
Palace, who wa- commanded to give effect
to its recommendations-.

France. —We have received some
French papers of Sunday, in addition to
those from which we gave extracts yes
terday. In the Chamber of Deputies, M.j
R. Constant moved a reduction of 2,000,000
(Vanes in the secret expenses of the police.
’ilPParis, and the Departments, on the
ground that the police neglected some of,
their da ties and violated others. lie tnen-j
tioued an instance in which a man had;
denounced an illegal association, and pro-j
duce.t the brevets ot admission, and the!|
arms they had manufactnred. Instead of j,
an investigation into the circuinstances,l.
the mar. had been thrown into prison.— j
M. 11 Constant said, he did not guarantee J
the truth of this statement, but as the man;
ivasin the hands of justice, he might be in
lertogared. lie then read one of (he forms
of admission to this secret association,
which was as follows:
“THE CONSERVATORS OF LEGITIMACY
Alnriainuv pro ea,
“M. has been judged worthy to be
elected an Honorary Member of the Sob !
ietyofthe Conse.valors of Legitimacy.—
He promises to defend it, and support it I
openly agaiut all its enemies, whoever they
may be.”
This form was su< rounded with vignet
tes and devices. The Hoa Member, afier
i animadverting on the domieiliary activity
oPthe Police, compared the present estab
lishment .with the description which M
Chataubriand gave of a Constitutional P
| lice. He then-left. tlie< tribune, and went
ito tie keeper of the Seals, in whose hands •
1 ht* placed a bundle of papers forms of elec-j

and also a dagger, enveloped hi a sheet of!

ALGIERS.
Extract of a leterfrom Algiers, of.Tune
14. —“A dispute h 5 broken out between
this Regency ami Spain, which will proba
bly soon lead to serious consequences, fr.d
to direct hostilities. This Regency, when
it was In want of momy, commonly ap
■ plied to Spain, and, since the peace of 1785,
1 it has continued, under some pretext or oth
i er, to draw from Spain a part of the money
I received from Mexico and Peru. Mattel s
! w ent on in this way, and thedeiuans of the
• Barbary government cost the Spanish Trea-
I sury perhaps £4 000 or 30,000 piastres per
■j annum on an average. Spain has at length
• ibecome weary of these importunities, the
! 'Dey of Algiers having become exorbitant
I jin his demands, and has required 1,300,000
• piastres, for a claim which had lotmerly
• been settled with 82,000.
i “As no register ships now conic to Ca
diz, the Cortes entered into serious r.cgo
ciatior. with this government. The ultitn
• atom was rejected in March, presented a
’ gain, supported by a sqadrou, and a threat
’ j added, that in case it were not accepted in
’ three days, iho> Spanish Consul should
‘! leave Algiers. Things remained as before;
.!but the Consul found means to embark.—
iOa the otlper hand the Chaplain of the Le-
Hgalion and the servants of the Consul were
• j not permitted to depart, though war was n
'jprnly declared. The Spanish squadron is
‘ieone to Mahon, where, as wo lipur, IS Gun
11boats are ready: we therefore, expect a
Ibornbaidment, with which the inhabitants
1 jare the less satisfied, a- the greater part of
’ the garrisons of the forts have gone on
’ board the corsairs that have sailed.
’j “The Plague, which has raged here since
i'lie month of April, spreads daily. The
’[deaths ace numerous, and many of the in
’{habitant* endeavor to avoid the contagion
■j by flight. The iicy of Constantine plunder
• jed, murdeied and cifhsrated, in order to
levy the usual tribute, of which, however,
’ only the hull’ had arrived liete on the 6th
1 jinst. He now experienced the same late

‘ ped ofall he possessed, and banished to
?the interior of the country,

! Advices have been received front Con-
Isantinople, which assert that an important
‘ victory had been obtained by the Turks,
{under the command of the Pacha of Bag
hdad, over the Persian troops, a short dis
-1 tatice from Bagdad. The victory is said
’ to have been complete, the Persians being
compelled to retire, with 4000 men killed,
and 700 prisoners. The Prince of Persia
was at E /."rum. A strong fortress had
been re-taken by the Turkish troops. —
This news must be received with some
hesitation.
BTITISH COMMERCE.
In the House of Commons, on the £3 1
July, M . Marryalt biought .in a petition
[from ihe ship owners and merchants of the
|< ity of London: and a long debate arose on
Oe* treatment of our ships by the hordes if
pirates who have so lonog infested (lie seas
ofthe West-Indies. He complained of the
indifference of our cmi/.ers with regard to
these plunderers, of whose bn barons treat
ment of Ihe crews that fall into their pow
er, accounts are daily received, and he
; praised the conduct of the Americans, who
.made s’ m g exertions to put down (lie
| pirates, an. i had even re-capimod, and de
jiivered to their owners, British vessels,
which the Pirates had bfu “ taken.
Si; G. Cockburn defended ti.e conduct
of government, and contended dial eyotj
thing was done which our relations villi
foreign nations warranted.
The M irquis of Londonderry followed
<m the same side. II • a',lulled to die late
petition sum Liverpool on this sn! jert,
and said, that unless the petitioners sus
pected the gove-nment of supineness, and
believed tilt- admiralty to be their enemte-,
|oe thought the L>"-t course they could adopt
jw.mld b -to endeavor to open the eyes of
{the Admiralty upon the subject. T’he No
ole L**rd noticed several cases of capture
wine i had been alluded to; in eighteen of
which, only one vessel was condemned,—
I'ii re were four cases of vessels detained
jhy Lord Cochrane, by a sort of law which
die (Lord C.) might understand, but which
jour Government c onM not recognize: but
lie saw nothing in the tone of the Chiilian
Gove n>act of which he could complain,
laud hoped they would be able to bring
‘Lord C. to reason, lie. recommended
[those interested in the trade to exert their
[activity in pointing out to ministers the
best mode by which these piratical practices
could be removed, without complaining be
{lure the House. Thu .'Secretary of the'Ad
miralty was of a similar opinion. The pe-!
lition, alter a goo,l deal of conversation, j
was read, l'heie was no other business of i
importance.
