LONDON, Monday JUNE 1. A VACANCY has occurred in the Episcopal Bvtich'by the death of'Dr Christopher Bethel I, Bishop of Gloucester, which event occurred suddenly about two o'clock yesterday afternoon. Pr ivate letters have been received this morning from Sicily, stating that Admiral Malcolm is collecting- his deet, and has sent orders to all the consuls in the Me- diterranean, to telegraph all ships of war, and give them orders to pr;)i,ee(i i:ji;iieitiatcly to Syracuse, which is the Admiral's plactof rendezvous. He has with him five sail of the line, and tour or five frigates. Many conjectures are ;ifl,)iit ill Sicily respecting this move- ment o! the British Admiivil. By the arrival of the .Marchioness oj* Etil from Cal- cutta, we have received papers to the 29sii Jan. The following is an extract: —" We are happy in being able to state, that the latest accounts from the Governor General, report the progress of his lordship's recovery (i1 be most favourable. His lordship is expected to return to the presidency" hy the route of llerhampore. We hezir thilt Ltdv William Bentinek will not, in con- sequence, proceed to Krngpore, as was expected." The following is an extract of a priv-ale letter from Lisbon'Yesterday a vessel arrived intheTagus from Oporto with 77 prisoners, 24 of whom have been to the tower of J alien, and the others have Wen'-confined in the fortress.of Cascaes'and in the tower or He!-m..Seventeen ollkers have heen con- Jemnei1 to be hanged by the. Tribunal of Lisbon, but we do hot know their names but it is feared that Gen; ¡ tllaudino and the C,H\;¡t de SIlhrra are niong the iVl. de Acosta ilo&tleag're, the LVI mister Pie- I. ui'potentiarv from Spain ro i>un-iVfig.uel,'h'as by. n more "tijccessfru in his uiission than his predecessor, having, ) it is said. obtained the positive "I of Don i JHiguel to ids uiarriage with his niece, j.)onna Maria. LL,, A P;iiL 25.—Above 30 Austrian and Sardinian ships, with c.irgoesy are here, waiting ) for firm ms, which, as hostilities have commenced, they will hardly obtain. An of which no particu- lars are known, is said to have taken place in the Gult of Bonrgiis. A!» i!U prisoners arrived here-yesterday. The Russian blockading squadron faas reinforced j small Vessels arrive daily with provisions, so-lint there is no scarcity. On the 1 lib, at five and seven o'clock, we had two smart siiocks of an-earthquake, by which Cavalla. and Xeres sulfered- much. L A Adrianople, are said to have suffered, and many of the inhaLitants, and numbers of vattle have perished. HAMKUUUM, MAY seems to have beer) ohs'inate it various points, but pro- bcsHly wi-tiiyitt any important result; for had the Rus- sians-obtained any 'advantages, we should have had a I bulletin; or had they been really beaten, the Austrian Observer would not have remained silent on the sub- C't. According to one account, the Russians have en completely beaten before Silistria, with the ioss 01 42 pieces of artillery, and four oiicers of rank. A tew days will either confirm or dissipate the rumour, rjuost probably the latter for it is hardly to be expected Chat the Turkswill be able to gain any very decided advantage at the commencement of the campaign.
