We think, however, that the Expedition which sailed from Negril November 27th, if it meet with no misfortune, must reach New Orleans some time before those troops from the Western Country eta get there..

This event is fully established, and known to the Government Offices; and it is fur ther believed that Viceroy Abascal is now on his mid dle passage home, having abandoned the country to ' all the horrors of a wide and dreadful revolution. This is what the Viceroy has got by exhaustin g Lima, and leaving the country without troops, with the impo. litic expeditions sent against Buenos Ayres, Chill, and New Granada, which, by destroying the bendlor subjection, by which the Peruvian provinces wars alone kept down, has rendered all means of resistant ineffectual. The greatest consternation prevails among persons interested in that country, but nobody dares speak of it in public. 44 Frotn New Spain not the smallest information has been received for the last seven months, the road from.

ARCH. CAMPBELL. Na 18, Suffolk-stroet, Ma. Enrroa--Referring to the proceedings en a recent trial, I have to request that yon will men in your Paper the following letters: 1 am, Sir, )oar's, &c. CHARLES MILNER. Gordon's Hotel, Albemarlootnet, Feb. 9, 191 S. Sta—ln of the comments, which, in the course of the recen=s a ve ce re made upon my evidence, I have to re. queer that you will lay before his Royal Highness the Comman do' In Chief, my humble solicitation, that he win be pleased to allow me the eariket a 7Fity, by enquiry or in such other as manner his Royal H asq deem most expedient, of jus tifying my conduit o f twig the imputation which those comments 'recalculated to Is upon me. For the purpose of ambit t( his Royal Highness to judge of the ground upon which I prefer this request, I will shortly state the subject and eaten of my Mama I was examined by 81r leis Murray as to the haste with which the dispatches on the 14th of June, 1813, were sent of, and to prove that there was not Widest time to have them espied. I stated, in answer to the questiod put to hte, that while I was copying the dispatch, 81r John Murray took it from me, saying there was not tithe to copy it. Ia the cross-ezamination, the dispatch sent by Sir John Mur to Lord Wellington was handed to me, and I was asked whether the body of it was not in my hand writing ? implying (as it appears by the subsequent comment made by the pr, weett toe upon my testimony) that that dispatch was itself a copy taken by we, and that I had therefore contradicted myself. 1 told the Court distinctly that it was most certainly my hand-writing, having been transcribed by me from the letters written by Sir John Murray himself; k was therefore a duplicate original, and sent as such to the Duke of Wellington (as was the former either to Lord Bathurst or yourself), and I was in the act of making a copy into the letter-book from one of these originals, when Sir John Murray took it from me, before I had copied many lines of the letter, with the expressi ons above stated. Having explained this to the Court at the time, and stated distinctly than, by " copy," I meant that which is entered in the letter-book, could Willy have suspected that my evidence afterwards would have ben exposed to such misconstruction. I trust this statement will fully satisfy his Royal Highness of the consistency of my answer before the Court, as it must be obvious that when speak ing of the hurry, 1 alluded to that which, is official language, is always understood to be the copy of a dispatch, viz. that which was co be preserved by Sir John Murray, as his record, and en ' toed in his letter-book: and every man in the least acquainted with public business would so underitand it. That the Court already understood me, I am perfectly satisfied, from the assur ances of an my friend s who were present at the time; and tita , the substance of the iransectioo was precisely as represented by me, will api ear from the proceedings ; in which k wall alio ap pear, that I there stated, that by " copy" I meant that which i. entered into the letter book. With respect to the other part of Adatiral Hallowelrs corn meats, I have the most sample means of proving that the last im putation to width 1 emir Jest', be subject, is that of having shown any eagerness to diodes, vesspprrssr which ame to my sus hi the intercourse of my oscW s uation on board t h e Malta; that which I did menden, was in consequence of 4 sues. doe, that, as a witness, I was obliged to answer. You will neutrally suppose that I am most anxious personally, and for the honour of the profession to which I belong, to have an opportunity of repelling, in tie same public manner in which they have bets given to the world, the insinsuitun thrown ou: open the subject of my evidence, and I, therefore, again solicit year laying my humble application before his Royal Flightless, for that purpose.-1 have the honour to be, year obedient humble asivszt, (Signed) CZARS.** MILN Captain ads Light Dragoons.
