V tsnce, and twenty•two «•ere oppointed.to be tried by a Council of War. On the Slit of January everything w as tranquil, and the public was quite satisfied, from t he firmness-and courage evinced by the,Congress and Executive Power, that the public tranquillity would not a gain be interrupted. The Mexican Government has thusproved its strength, and as the Loan lately contracted for here, will soon en able them to pay up Lo -the rnilitaty the I2ng arrears unfortunately due to them, the general tranquillity is slot likely again to be soon disturbed. The people of Dierks) remained perfectly loyal to the Government during the tumults, and a law has been passed for the 'expulsion of native-born Spaniards from the Mexican -States. Both SANTANA and LOBATO are' determined 'enemies to Spain. The following particulars of these disturbances is extracted from a letter dated Jalapa, 31st of JAIIUaI y: " Mr Daft Fatten—The firmness of Congress and • of the Go vernment on the days of the 24th to the 27th instant, has saved us from an alarming commotion. " General Lobato, a man in whom great Confidence had been reposed for moderation and, sound ideas, assembled In their barracks a part of his regiment, No. 5, which was then at Mexico, united to a major part of the garrison, amounting to about 1,000 men, on the 23c1 inst. at night, made known by means of a Proclamation, that be would not obey the Executive Power; that his object was to support the Congress for the temoval of the Executive, and that lie would net lay down his arms until that object was attained; and also that of removing from public employments all European Spa niards resident in the country. There are twenty-two Officers under arrest implicated in the commotion of the 27th. The l Chief of them, Stabolli, was to have been shot on the 28th, and a Council of War was sitting on the otbers.—it is to be regretted that the principal Chief, Lobato, by receiving the benefit of the amnesty, has his life spared, Bte. &c." Lisbon Papers to the 9th inst. reached us this morn ing. The Gaulle.: of the 6th and Bth ate filled with • extracts from the English, French, and Spanish Journals , without any internal intelligence, except some orders of the day relative to the army. Bayonne Papers' to the 14th inst. and Brussels to the 20th have reached us. The former only inform us that the King et SPAIN was preparing to go to Aranjuez, where he was expected to remain several months, and that there was an idea of sending an expedition to Cuba, where all the Spanish forces would be collected to make an attack on Mexico or South America. The Brussels papers announce the death of Baron Von Jusr, late Minister from,SaxOny to this country, at the age of 72, and the appointment of Mr. FALCK, by the King of the NETHERLANDS, to the high post of Ambassador to the British. Court. We received last ni7lll7l7F7pers of Thursday and Friday. Tlie-only facts of,interest which we learn from them are contained in the following summary :—Pre parations are making for the opening of the Chambers on Tuesday. The royal sitting will take place in the Lome. The health of the Emperor ALEXANDER said, in levers from St. Petcrbburgh, to be completely, re-established. The treaty of peace between Persia and Turkey was ratified on the 28th of January. A Rus sian Eneoy, who had arrived at Constantinople, has re newed diplomatic intercourse with the Government of the Pone. Arrangements are stated in the Austrian Observer to be made for the occupation of Napoli di Romania by a mixed garrison of Ilythiotes,Spezziotes, and Ipsariotes. The affair of Ithaca, about which so much has been said, is stated in the same journal to be reduced to the capture ef one Turkish brig, with 180,000 dollars on board. The Journal des Debate gives a comparative state ment with regard to the composition of the last, and the present Chamber of Deputies, from which it appears that in the late Chamber there were 110 Members of opposition, and that in the present there are only se venteen. The right side, from 324, is increased to 413, a difference of 89, and the four different between this last number and 94, is explained by the double and triple election of the same candidate.

NEALE was in consequence about to return to Malta, with the REVENGE, NAIAD, &C. s We have been favoured by a - Mercantile House in town, with the following important extract of a letter HAVANNAII, FEBRUARY 7. " The Americans have found'an excellent Port and Harbour between Vera Crtsz and Alvaredo, where a beet of any class may lie at anchor in any weather, as safe as in any barbour or port in the world. All the vessels in that quarter lately entered into it, and rode out the late heavy gales without the least danger. This is an important discovery7—Glasgow Courier. If we are to believe an article in one of the Hamburgh Papers received this morning, the problem as to the moon being inhabited is now completely set at rest, as a German Professor at Munich, remarkable for " an ex tremely quick sight," has not only discovered a fortress, but several regula►ly made roads, in that luminary. From the quick sight of the Professor, we may antici pate further discoveries; and trust he will be able to ascertain whether the roads are 11I , Adamized or nut, and how many guns are ;minted ou the fortress; and if his telescope is like that of the Irish Baronet, who could not only see a church twenty miles off, but hear the congregation singing psalms, the Professor will Perhaps be able to hear the fortress fire a feu-de-joie on some public occasion. The following is the article to vl;icli we have alluded:— AUGSBURG, MARCH 12. Protium Gruitlitiien, at Munich, %hose scientific researches are known to the learned from Dode's Astro nomical Calendar and other writings, has spoken in that Calendar, and in one of his works, of the discovery which his extremely quick sight, aided by a good tele scope of Frauenhofer's making, has been enabled to make of a colossal building situated near the equator of the moon, rembling a fortress with straight ramparts, which are arranged like the lateral fibres of an alder leaf. We now learn .that he has also discovered a great many regularly made roads, aim ations evidently made , by art in natural walls, the clearest trace s of cultiva tion on the surface of the moon Schroeter af firmed tt; exist), and. several other indicatioas of rational,' beings in that planet.

Previously, however, to his leaving the Castle, Lord"l3EttKEttes stag hounds came into the Little Park in full chase of a fine deer, which took the direction immediately under the Terrace, from which his MAJESTY had a full view of the interesting scene, which was as gratifying as it was delightful. The deer being closely pursued leaped over the piling into the Slopes, and thence scaled the wall, proceeding by Frogmore through the enclosures ; he then crossed the Long Walk, taking two gardens in his career, and en tered the kitchen of the'Foot Guards in Sheet.street at the time dinner was being served up. At this moment Lord BERKELEY was close up, and immediately alighted at the Barracks. The deer was secured. After his ride, his MAJESTY returned to the Castle to dinner.

ALARMING Firm—Yesterday forenoon, about twelve o'clock, the nei,girbourhood of Cranborne-alky, Leices ter-square, WAS thrown into a state of the greatest alarm by an immense volume of flame and smoke bursting from the shop and first-floor windows of the house of Mr. Dunn, shoemaker, and from the amazing rapidity of the devouring element, it was at first thought that not one of the numerous inmates would have escaped. However, several or the neighbours, with great activity, tore down the shutters, and with the aid of the paro chial engine, confined the flames-to the lower part of the house; and while they were engaged in this praise worthy act, a scene that baffles description was going on among the lodgers, every room having its occupants, and all, in a state of inconceivable confusion and alarm, were flinging from the windows their furniture,s&c. into . the street in every direction. One of the upper room windows was in the confusion thrown open, and directly after a large saucepan was hurled into the street, with a loud exclamation of, " Take care of the pork ;" and in its progress through the air, a leg of pork, several dumplings, and some greens fell out; this incident had such a ludicrOus effect, that shouts of laughter were re-echoed on all sides: the owner, a tailor, ap peared at the window, and was with the greatest dif ficulty prevented darting into the street after his dinner. It seems he was awoke by his wife, who, in great alarm, informed him the house was in flames; and his first im pulse was to fly to the fire, and hurl the pot containing his family dinner, for safety, into the street. The flames, by very great exertion, were confined to the lower part of the premises of Mr. Dunn, which consist of a double house, with two shops, until the arrival of the Sun, Ex change, and County fire-engines, when a plentiful sup ply of water being obtained, in about an, hour the fire was completely subdued, having destroyed sheentirerof the ground floor: the shops and the'valuable*-stoceirt trade were completely reduced to ashet !.-. .v.; At dinner given by the High 'Sltetiffraf the eviotty_ of Cavati to the Gr4nd Jury; last Cortirkisskin-day; there were thirty-six Orange toasts pi-oposed, and• some with - three times three, sortie With Blur titnesfOrs'r, some with six times, ind - sorrie .vath. nine time s nine, rnakin&a grand total a.

Lovedean on the left, to North House, skirting High down Wood, and faced the hills to Stoke Woods, over Stoke Down, to Old Winchester; when, finding the wind in his teeth, he sunk the valley, within two fields of the river, at Meonstuke, and, close to Droxford, headed hack, crossing Soberton Downs, leaving fiatn bledon on the left ; he then went straight through the King's en closures, in the Forest of Here, Plashwood, and Sheepwash, at the extremity of which they killed hint—in three hours and five minutes, without a check of more than two minutes. Throughout the run they went a clipping—and there was a great demand for blacksmiths. Out of a numerous field of sportsmen, only five or six, besides the huntsman and whipper-in, lived with them until they killed ; who all acknowledged never having witnessed a better r s pti, during which the bounds were never assisted by a halloo; itt short, he was viewed but twice the whole time.
