FURTHER PAR MOLAR& The following extract of a letter, dated Madrid the 28th ultimo, from an English Gentleman with whom Mr. I.IfILL lodged, goes more into detail than the account we published on Saturday It is with clueing regret and pain I have to inform you of the death of our poor friend Mr. Lyell, the messenger, who was InhuManly murdered on Sunday, 91st July, between the hours. of 10 and 12 in the forenoon. He was found dead in a ruinous building called the Observatory, at the back of the Botamcal Garden, near the Great House in the fields, called the China Manufactory, which was blovin bp by the 'English Army. I believe you and I have been there together. He had five wounds, one in the groin, another about his bfart, and was much bruised about the head. It appears by the evidence of the Surgeon, that the wounds were ilia cted by a bayohet, or by the kind of sword which is carried in walking stickt , What, indeed, astonishes us so much in this tragical event is, that we have every reason to believe be was not robbed. Ills clothes, consisting of a plain blue' coat, grey wonted pantaloons, striped waistcoat, pair of strong Engli.h shoes, cotton stocking*, white neckcloth, silk pocke - handkerchief, with a-small Fr cock gold watch, eouff.boz, spec tacks, tooth-pick case, and penknife, were all found about him. As soon as he arrived at Madrid he drew £3O of Mr. Vaughan, almost all cf which was found in hls purtmanteau, besides about 40 ducats, and 13 XI Dank of England notes. Me. I.yell was with us about tire weeks; dining that time I always found him to be a steady, quiet, and inoffensive man. He lived in oar house, and he and mysill were in the habt of walking out together every evening, and to my knowledge he had no other acqualiaacee. You are to observe, that he wert out alone almost 2222 y morning after breakfast, fur about an hour and a half. Now, whether he made any acquaintance (which is not likely, DM knowing the bilge:lse), or whether he had been watched by any body, wears at a lola to know. He never intimated to me any ' such thing. _ _ " Nutw - nbstand:r: the 'iglu:re of the Judge, the police, and Mr. Vaughan's news eniplqyed •on this melancholy occasion, nothing yet has been ill`cu.ereil to lead to the detection of this horrible murder. All remains a mystery, and, as It were. a dream. It strikes me that it must have beets done by some sol• diets, who were &aimed, and bad not time to rob him. " The body Mr. Vaughan got leave, with a great deal of trouble, to inter in the Convent garden, near our house, in very decent coffir. All our family atten ded it to the grave, and Mr. Vaughan read the service over it: suffice it to say. that no.. thing was wanting on our part to take the renaados of this on fortunate man to tt.e grave in a suitable manner. Pray say all this to Mrs. Lyell. " New Mei* sir, feral —Mr. Lyell went out about ten o'clock on the Who of July, alone, in the morning ; but not re• joining to dinner I was alarmed, and sent about to inquire after him, but could bear nothing of him. About eleven o'clock at night I dm tht proper to let Mr. Vaughan know, who desired me to make ,trite search after him, but all in vain : we could learn nothing of hint that night. On the following morning I went out about six o'clock, and was told, o 3 inquiring, that a man had been killed the day before; and on asking where the body lay, was told at the Court prison to be owned: I itivantiy ran th..re, and on asking the porter if pny English prisoner or dead body was taken there, was told there was : I demanded to see it, and in an instant was shewn the body of pow: Lye 4." FRL NCH I'.ll'l3lS. MADRID, JULY 2s. The Brigadier of Cavalry D.rn S eloador Mow is appointed Mareschal-Je•Camp, Governor and Cap- Lin General of the Provinces of Venezuela, over the Royal Audience of which he will preside. The Viceroy of Islelie° has addressed to ae Mini ster at War the following dispatch, which was sent to him by Brigadier Don Joseph Moreno y Daoiz : " Puebla, Dt.cetnber 18,1815. " Don Miguel del Campo, Military Commandant of Jalapa informs me, under date of the 11th instant, that on the Bth the enemy abandoned thi impregnable position of Puente del Rey, leaving behind him nine pieces of artillery of different calibres— among which are an eighteen *Ad several tour and eight-poun ders. a great quantity of ammunition, a pair of colours, muskets, and caps, as well as a considerable quantuy of maize. They have but slightly threatened our reconnoitring parties. " I regret that they did 11:4 wait a few Lour longer for me, in which case I slibuld have completely b.-aten them. Their cavldry was beaten on the 'porting of the 7th 11 ours, and some com panies of the regiments el the Orders and of Navarre. I have the honour to inform your Excellency of this for your satisfaction. " Goa preserve your Excellency many years I (sSilint'd) " JOSZPII 11014:NO T DAM. " To his Excellency Don Felix Maria Calleja." The official Gazette of this day publishes dispatches received from Mexico, and historical particulars of the rebel chief Morelos, who was shot at Mexico on the rld of December last. The following is an ex tract: Morelos was a native of Valladolid, and son of a cabinet-maker. He..was upwards of fifty years of age, and had three sons, the eldest of whom is thir teen. This boy he sent to South America for his education, and kept the two others with him. Till the age of twenty-tivehe devoted himself to agricul ture : he then pursued the career of letters, and en tered as a student in the college of Mexico, of which the traitor Hidalgo was principal. He confined his studies there to that of philosophy by day, and mo rality by night, as be says himself. When Hidalgo 'raised the standard of rebellion 'at Dolores, Morelos was rector of Caracuaro. On hearing the intelli. gene, he forsook his living. and hastened to join the rebel ; having met with him at Charo, .he accompa nied him to lndaparapeo, where he resolved to ren der these pr.oripces independent, by availing himself of the most favourable opportunity afforded by the captivity of the King. Morelos undertook, as Lieu tenant to Hid..lgo, to raise troops on the coasts of the South Sea, and to act conforasably with the verbal instructions communicated to him, and which. were merely to seize all the arms that he should find is the places through which he mig ht pass. He was to usurp the authority, and to re invest-those who held it, provided they.were not Europeans. All the pro. perry of the latter was to be seized, and the produce applied to the subsistence of the troops ; and, after securing their persons, he was to deliver them over to the nearest Intendance. The principal commis sion of Morelos was to take the city of Acapulco.- -This commission was accepted by Morelos. Con. ceiving it to be incompatible with his sacred funetioie he determined to repair to Valladolid, to coanuni cate his resolution to the Ecclesiastical Authority, at the head of which the Coupe de Sierra Guedilthen wasp in order that his living might be disposed of. Tliht its done, and the PrintTiiid of tire; UoiviisitY I besought Morelos to do all that lay in his power to avoid the effusion of blood. The success of his first expeditions, owing, in a great measure, to the dispo sitnin in which he found the people, and those which' he undertook successively, and in proportion as his force augmented, gained him such. reputation, that' in a short time be obtained the rank of Lieutenant. General and Captain-General, and finally that of Generalissimo of the rebel troops, with the supreme, executive power, and the title f Highness. These functions and tides he exercised and retained till all , powers were taken away by the new Congress at Tladotepec. His ceased among the rest, and he continued unemployed till he was appointed a mem ber of the Supreme Council of Government and Cap tain General of the troops, which posts he held when taken prisoner in the action of Temalaca on the sth of November last. Being conducted to Mexico, by order of his Excellency the Viceroy, to be punished .in the presence of the Authorities, which this rebel had offended and insulted, he confessed his crimes, particularly that of having placed himself at the head of the revolters, with the determination of esta blishing the absolute independence of these provinces, and never acknowledging the King for their Sovereign. He assigned, as a motive, that if the King should 'reign again in Spain, which wo not to be expected, it would only be as the creature of Napoleon. The rest is known. fie published, before he died, a letter addressed to the Viceroy, in which he confesses and execrates his errors. His body being claimed by the clergy, received the honours of sepulture. ROME, JULY 24. The Sovereign Pontiff on the 2'2d held a Consistory in the Quirinal Palace. After a brief allocution, his Holiness nominated Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church the Prelates whose names are as follow , and who already created in the Secret Consistory of March 8, of the present year, had been reserved in /alio : Cardinal Priests—M. Camillo de Simeoni, Bishop of Satri, born at Beoevenr, December 13, 1737 ; M. Jean-Baptiste Quarantotii, Secretary to the Sacred Congregation of the Propaganda, born at Rome, September 27, 1733; M.`Georges Doria, born at Rome, November 17, 1772. Cardinal Deacons—M. Louis Ercolani, born at Fa lino, October 17, 1755; M. Stanislaw San Severing), brim at Naples, July 13, 1764. His Eminence Cardinal Fontana, has notified to all booksellers throughout the States of his Holiness, that they are to return an account of their stock of books on hand. Political writings, journals, and romances, are se verely pruhibited, because it cannot but be known that this brunch of literature has been very fatal to religion and authority, by bringing into discussion the sacred dogmas of out belief, the ceremonies of wo, ship, and the acts of the Sovereign authority. JULY 2.s.—Five Cardinals were nominated on the 22d of this month. There have been for two days illuminaiiiins, bonfires, and music, in the principal places Gf the Capital. The heat, which has begun to be excessive, has induced a great number of strangers to leave us, in order to travel into different countries of Italy. It is a loss to this city ; they are going to spend elsewhere that money which .they used to lay out here, aid thus deprive the artisan and t:le indigent of a precious resource under the present circumstances. PARIS, AUGUST 7. They write from Lisle. on the 4th August, ff that many officers of the English Staff, coming from Eng land, by the way of Calais, have arrived within the last few days at Cambray. Some detachments of English troops have also disembarked; they are going to j..in their respective corps." suture B.—A French Ecclesiastic, who is just arrived from Rome, . and had the honour to pay his respects to his Holiness, relates, that every thing at Rome seemed disposed to facilitate the su:cess of the negotiations relative to the affairs of the Church of France. The River has risen, since yesterday, a foot and a half. Letters from Toulon state that his Majesty. with a view to afford a new guarantee to the French corn meace in the Levant. has ordered the French squa dron off Tangier to be reinforced. Two frigates have sailed for that destination. Letters from Spain, Italy, Austria, and almost all parts of Germany, as well as from most of the Pro. winces of France, state that the harvest is every where more abundant than had been expected. The harvest began three days since in the plain of St. Denis. The wheat cannot be got. in for these eight or ten days • but the other kinds of grain, that is to sey, rye, barley, and oats are quite ripe, and are cut indiscriminately. They are very thick and high, and there is scarcely room to let the sheaves; there are even fields where it is necessary to make them twice as large as usual. The three packet.boats for mails, building . by order of the administration of the posts at Celay, will pro.' bably be ready next month. They are remarkable for the beauty of their construction and the eleg a nce of their interior. The Minister of the Interior has just prescribed ar rangements, the object of which is to simplify the payment of the salaries of the Clergy. 44 The King, (says his Excellency, in the Circular which he has addressed to the Prefects on this important subject,) could not see the distress in which the Clergy ale in volved, without being deeply affected by it. One of the great objects of his solicitude has been to change this afflicting state of things, as tar as the situation of the finances permit. The Chambers have felt equal interest with his Majesty on this head, and the law of the 28th of April bas already augmented by five mil lions of francs for the yearlBl6, the credit previously granted' for the expenses of the clergy." More fa vourable circumstances will permit the relieving of their situation in a more efficacious manner, and the Minister promises to omit no opportunity for arriving gradually at this accessory atueliaation. MINISTRY OF WAR. It is not known upon what foundation the Anneal In Deists of the 6th instant asserts, tbat thirty Lieu tenant-Gellerals have been placed in activity as In spectors-General, and that sixty Marshals-de-Camp have been appointed assistairts to them. It may be affirmed that this assertion is as erroneous as that of yestard+y, which mentions several of the Lieutenant- Generals said to hare beep sprinted/ —0114410 , THE EVENING S7f. - LONDON.

The Park and Tower guns were fired as usual. His Royd Highness this day enters upon the 55th year ut his age.-44 Sero in Adult, redress !" We have received the Paris Papers of Thursday'. The Moamar officially contradicts the statements given in a contemporary Paris Journal respecting a large armament being in preparation by Vrance. We confess that recent circu.nstances gave considerable probability to these rumours : it was boldly stated in several private letters entitled to much confidence, that France was about to raise by conscription 60,000 men, and that these were to be employed in addition to the regular army now on foot, in expelling the Allied Armies from France, and thus sweeping nff the immense load of contributions which France has stipulated to pay to the Allied Powers. The inten tions of the French Government on this subject are by no means to be gathered from their official con- Aradiction of what they conceive to be au offensive rumour. With respect to the Ceviyal of the Conscription or aey part of its horrors, we most solemnly protest, in the name of humanity : it was this chief engine of despotism which, in the hands of BONAPARTE, brought all the evils upon Europe from which we a:e but just emerged. So long, therefore, as the French Government are permitted to draw upon their populn. tion without check, the surrounding nations must be in a state of alarm, and must be put to the dreadful expense and inconvenience of keeping up a force to meet the corresponding levies of France. The Con. scription also, be it remembered, was one of the curses which the BOURBONS positively promised to remove from France on their restoration. The weather, generally , peaking, seems to be as unfavourable in France as it is here. The Seine rose a foot and a half on Thursday last, in consequence of the rains during the ptecediu; day and night. At Mounties and It Cheviti there was a thunder and hail storm last week, which desolated an extensive track of country. Snow fi 11 on the 30th of July on the mountains near Cham'Ary.

Several . individuals, condemned to banishment by the Freach tribunals for seditious discourse and othe r crimes of this nature, have bten brought by the French gens d'armes to our frontiers within a few days. Acousr B.—Malevolence cr ignorance haJ hin dered a great many marriages, contracted before a Minister of Religion, from receiving the civil forma lities which are necessary to give a legal character to the onion of the man and wile. The Governor of South Brabant, by his proclamation of the `list f May, has shown the people how much they expose their fintune, their civil condition, and that of their children, L. this c ncluet, so that they have hecocie sensible of their et ror, and the number of ru triiages Contracted before the Civil Magistrates increases daily, And parents hasten to legitimate by a legal marria?e children born dining a union which their own sion or perfidious connsels had hitherto led them to consider as sufficiently consecrated by the religiot:s ceremony alone. GHENT, AUGUST & They write from Oudo:narde on the 3.3, wh tt fol lows The waters ate excessively high, and have not subsided for these duce days. The Si.helit is at the height of 16 feet at Oudenarde ; our rich and beautiful meadows are partly inundated; the grass which is not mown will tit in the water. and that which was already mown has been carried off by the current.

According to the infortnation just received ene weather at sea seems to hnve been exactly the con trary to what we see tlm6st daily in this country.— The master of a fishing vessel, which returned to Delf Haven on the 22d July, says, that dung eight weeks that he was out fishing 80 miles North ot the Tote), there was not a shop t.f rain, but every day extreme heft : he was quite astonished at ',civil: that the weather had been so rainy here.
