PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. " !ammo, Anna 30. 14 By the accounts from Andalusia, it appears the in surgents left TWIN in the completest order, embarking on board the vessels'destined for the purpose, without the loss of a marl, and taking with them the money that they found in the public offices, and six thousand muskets, together with the colours f the S4th French regiment. The French lost full four hundred Officers and men, and the pi isoners they took turn out to be the inhabitants of Tarifa, whom they found out of their houses. The insurgents directed their course to Al !mita, where they landed, and were joined by the police officers, with the well-knowo song of the 4 Tra gala.' It is stated that they have re-embarked, hut for what reason, or whither gone, we are not told. The report of their having come from Gibraltar appears to be false,. it being ra i,et.l merely to discredit the English. A great number of arrests have been made in Cadiz. The enterprise was known in Seville on the Ist of the month, and the Constitutionalists were embracing and kissing one another openly in-the streets, in expectation of what was to come, and presuming that the whole of Andalusia would instantly rise. " The whole of the National Cavalry, to a man, have their lirrses, as have also many of the infantry, though known not to have the means of maintaining them, But money is found somewhere, and at a favourable opportunity they will out. Disturbapces have in deed begun, but they were suppressed; about twenty • lives were lost in the whole: Coiestittscioa Reforatadal was the cry they set up. It is supposed here to have been the work of the friars, to draw forth the people, for the Royalists to massacre them, and which, from the small number killed, failed of the purpose. The Curate who conducts the Gazeite has received orders to insert nothing regarding the interior of Spain but what is sent from the Palace. 46 The French seem very desirous of being recalled ; they are heartily sick of the country, and think it best that the Spaniards should fight it out among theMselvess, as they can make nothing of them, " The Minister of War, who has been out and in, and tottering so long, is now definitively out. He is a man of a good deal of professional ability, and of able dis positions; he was particularly active in setting about the formation of the army, till his efforts were paralyzed, and his fall decreed in consequence, the Church party being determined on not having a regular army, as every regiment raised is a regiment of Constitutionalists, and the pay and maintenance must come from them. They thi.ik that they themselves and the Royalist Vo. lunteers are sufficient to govern the country. The re• cruitir have accordingly been sent back to their homes, but with the notice that they may at any time be called upoa to serve. By a new decree every officer must be purified before he can be employed, by which ti meenough is gained ; and if, as in this " Junta a Purificaciones e already formed, which bears the nick-name of the Five per Cents, only five or six out of a hundred are returned as purified, there will not be enough for a regiment. With- this abandonment of the army, the military trea sury and financial army regulatior.s are done away with, and, in fact, the whole of the plans of the Minister of Finance may be said to have fallen to the ground ; they can get on with nothing. The Superintendent of the Army Finance is sent hack to his Directorship of the Rentes. The Great Book too, will probably be locked up for ever, and the only monument remaining of the Minister's wisdom will be the Bacalhao scheme entered into by an Irish house, after every Cousulade' in Spain, and every Spani2rd had refused to meddle with it, and it was the natural supposition that it would have turned to smile. " The Superintendent• General of Police, Arjona, is likewise out. He was too considerate and too mode rate for the situation. Tue new man, Gonzales, they say, is of a different stamp. On corning into office, he said, we ere here to-day and gone to-morrow; but whilst we are employed we must do onr duty as be comes us ; give all protection to the Royalists, and chas tise their enemies.' Make hay while the sun shines, was the drift of his meaning. It is likely he will turn out all who cannot pay for their places. The police em ploys about 18,000 person!. " The merchants complain bitterly of the preference given to French over English commerce." By the Philntaxe, artivettfrom Java, we have letters dated Apri' 10, at which time the British merchant, M r . T l ions.rox, was still in custody of the pirates, by whom ho '.Ad been conveyed to Borneo, in expectation of a larger ransom. As no direct communication has been made Ly that Gentleman, his ft lends and relations are ignorant of the treatment mhich he receives. The Philotaxe was bOarded off the West India Islands by a privateer, professing to be from Buenos Ayres, and plundered of a quantity of coffee and pepper. The Active, whose arrival at Plymouth from Cape! Coast, has been already mentioned, had on board three Lidies, the widows of Officers killed in action with the Ashantees. The enemy had not, at the time of her departure, approached nearer to the . Castle than the distance of seven miles, but their advance was expected every hour. It is said that only seven or eight of the civiliahs on the Government establishment survived the effects of the climate and the fatigues of the military duties they had undergone as volunteers. Provisions were so seance, that though the Active was engaged at a premium of £l4O. per month to procure frod, &e. she was compelled to leave, and make her way to Eng • ?and in the greatest distress. • ;.:=. mow: .- ,~ ' , "77"" • -0' ;.

The fol lowing are extracts: • LISBON, SEPTEMBER 2. The Gazette contains the following official articles : 1. Decree of 26th May, 1824 (before published), by which his Majesty confirmed the orders he had already givep, to make a strict investigation into the events that. took place on the SOth April and the following days, for the purpose of discovering the real criminals, and especially those traitors who issued, in the name of Prince Miguel, orders for the imprisonment of great num . - hers of innocent persons, that the authors of such atro cious crimes may be brought to condign punishment, and the nation, which has always been celebrated for its loyalty, may be purified from the disgrace which some perverse and wicked persons would havecast on it. 2. A Decree. dated 24th August, 1824, of • the following tenours—" Being informed that the deposi tiims and other judicial proceedings are terminated, which I ordered for the purpose of discovering the per ,sons guilty of the enormous and great crimes perpetrated in this capital on the unhappy day of SOth April this year, and the following days, by various attacks on the Sovereignty, the Royal and Supreme Power, which DIVIND Patmosscz confided to me; threatening the Government with total dissolution, to the terror and unheard-of scandal of my faithful subjects, who found themselves exposed to the incalculable horrors of anarchy—l think fit to create a commission, composed of members of acknowledged learning and probity, and very zealous in the service of GOD and in mine, whoi with the assistance of the Attorney-General of my crown, and presided by Manoel Texeira de Carvalho, Councillor of State, holding their meetings in the office of the Minister of Justice, shall declare those who ate found guilty, and shall try them and pass final sentence, according to the laws and the proofs, observing only the limits of the natio al law, without attention to civil forms, all which I dispense with this for time only." EThe Commission is composed, besides the President, of nine members, Judges in the several Courts of Justice, and some of the members of his Majesty's Council., , c For the further security of the administration of justice, and for clearing up the truth in matters of such great weight and importance, his Majesty further thinks fit to order, that the summary of the investigations which he commanded to be made by the Intendant. General of the Police, as well as those that took place on the assassination of the Marquis of Louie, shall be laid before the present Commission with the other do cuments, as alley tend to throw much light-on the fatal events of the SOth of April. As the comparison of the other investigations may make it necessary to take fur :her teps, to re-examine witnesses, to confront them with the accused, in order to prevent any obscurity or once'. tainty by which the innocent might suffer or the guilty escape, his Majesty has been pleased to give the Com mission the powers necessary for this purpose. " Lastly, I order that for the accomplishment of all that is above stated, all mallitres, or want of formality, shall be disregardeZ, which may be found in the said depositions, and summary proceedings as is just, and has always been done in case of crimes of much less importance, all laws and resolutions to the contrary being derogated from, and declaiei null in this sense.' The Archbishop of Evonar, Minister of Ecclesiastical Affairs and Justice, is charged with the execution of this decree. The ill health of Senor Manoel de Carvalho making it absolutely impossible for, him to fulfil the duties of President of the above Commission, his Ma jesty is pleased to excuse him from taking part in the labours of the Conunissioss, anil to appoint Doctor An tonio Gomez Ribeiro, of his Majesty's Council, to act in his stead. Among the arrivals, are three vessels from Rio de Janeiro, one from Maranhao), and one from Para. New Orleans papers to the 10th of July have reached us, but they contain no intelligence from South Ame. lica.

The Dormis had gone back to the Bay of Fundy, to cruise against smugglers. The SAMASANG, Captain Sir W. Wm:state, had arrived at Halifax only a short time before the Surma.. Major. General Sir H.

The Ad miral, it was reported, intended to remain at Halifax until Novem ber, when he would proceed to Bermuda. The lit.ossost, 28, has again been commissioned at Woolwich, by Captain 13aecuiv, whom, it may be recollected, was Lieutenant of one of the discovery ships, employed in the Northern Espedii. tion. It is reported, that Captain !inciter will be employed on a' voyage to the South Pole, but the immediate object of the under. tilting has not yet transpired. The &Anson is now in dock, under. going a general repair, and it is intended abe shall be doubled, with a view to strengthen her.

At a quarter past two o'clock his Majesty left the Royal Lodge in a close carriage drawn by four beautiful bay horses, driven by two postillions, and oat-riders. His Majesty looked extremely well, and was dressed in the Windsor uniform, as were also the Marquis and Lord Francis Conyngham, who accompanied him. His Majesty proceeded through the ng Walk into the Little Park, entered the Castle by the old gate, and alighted at the grand entrance to the state apartments, where his Maiesty received the Islanders with histnual graceful condescension, in the new Council Chamber, formerly the old State Bed-room. His Majesty, after honouring them with an audience of three-quarters of an hour. left the Castle, and returned to the Royal Lodge by the same route. Mr. Byng then accompanied the Islanders back to the White Hart Inn, where he took leave of them, and they remained to dinner. At half-past five in the afternoon they left Windsor for London. Their presence attracted a vast concourse of people round the White Hart. They were all dressed in the English fashion. . The attentions of his Majesty, to the whole party were of the most kind, affable; and condescending character : and the impres sion produced on the minds of the Islanders was one of unmixed pleasure and' satisfaction.

THE Sr. LEGER RATE.—This race was instituted in the year 1776, by the late Colonel Sr.'Laura of Park-hill, near Doncaster; but it was not until three years afterwards, that it was called the St. 'Leger, which was named by the late Marquis of RoctitcHast, at a dinner at the Red Lion inn, on the entry ' day, in compliment to the Gentleman with whom the race toriginated- WILKIE is now in Edinburgh, for the putpose of making studies for the picture ordered from him by his MAJESTY. The subject is the King's arrival at the Palace of Holyrood, with his cortege. Among the alterations making at the Adel,:hi Theatre, is the formation of a number of boxes in the rear of the dress circle, with a passage between them, on the plan of that which was in- Covent-Garden Theatre called the basket, and which was removed about two yews ago. A letter has been received from the Agents to Lloyd's at Smyrna, dated the 2d of August, which states that the city and neighbouring villages had been frequently alarmed during three weeks by the constant passage DI Turkish troops towards Scala Nuova, collected from all parts of the country. They are described chiefly as an undisciplined rabble,. who, in the villages, had broken into Greek houses occasionally, in seeking for lodgings and provisions, and had also assassinated ten or twelve Greeks in the town and vicinity of Smyrna ; but neither had any robberies of money or goods from mercantile travellets taken place, nor had Europeans or Ow! houses in the country suffered. Smyrna had been pc 1- fectly quiet for the last ten days, the Pacha having )1 - - bidden the entrance Of any more of these men, whom he could scarcely expect to column' by his police. Ur wafds of 60,000 were at Scala-Nuova, waiting for tae Captain Pacha 's fket to carry them against Samos. Ile was still at Mitylene. 'The Greeks art said to have about 50 armed vessels in the Archipelago, employed in watching'the Turks. • The blunders of our countrymen in their first at tempts to speak the French language, have been at ail, times a source of amusement, and have been transferred from real life to the stage.
