THE TENINt; STAR. LONDON. TUESDAY, DECEMBER 6, 182.3. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE OCLocK. The market is very unsteady this morning. Consols, which opened at 831 fur the Account, and afterwards fell to 854 I, have recovered, and are now at $34 4. In consequence of a report' , yesterday afternoon, that a Bank in the City had stopped payment, Consols fell from 844 to 83i 4 : it is understood that the house in question was not a Banking but a Commercial house of great re spectability, and that the Bank of Ragland no sooner heard of its difficulties. than the must liberal and effectual assistance was given. The Foreign Market is very heavy this morning. • Current Prices: Colombian New 611 62, Mexican Six per Cent. 621, Brazilian Scrip 131 13 dis.

We have been (avowed with the following extract of a letter from a distinguished Naval Officer, now em ployed on the coast of Peru, which, as it contains some interesting remarks on the state of that Republic, we ha.ten to lay before our Readers. It is dated near Lima. sth July, NW. The conjectures as to the fall of Callao are not exactly verified, as we bare intelligence of a later date, by which we learn, that as late as the 4th of A.. gust it still held out: • " 7 .1 . LINA, JULT 5, lab. 'I The decisive battle efiegineel by the Patriots over the combined Spanish forces, under La Serna and Camerae, at Ayacucho, in De. cember last, has completely changed the aspect of affairs in these countries. No longer Is danger apprehended froin any reinforce ments that may arrive from the mother country. The only place where the Spanish flag now waves in Peru, is in the castles of Cal lao, the port of Lima, which has, since their/manful period, and is now, blockaded by land and sea. The Governor, General Rodil, is a brave and determined man, and would do honour to a better cause. N. doubt is entertained of his bolding out to the last extremity.— Callao is so strongly fortified, that the Patriots will not attempt taking it by storm. Prom the best information that can be obtained, the garrison has provision sufficient to last until the end of August, when Rodil will have to capitulate. The Patriots are so anxious to re gain possession of the Castles, being a place of great importance, and justly termed " the key of Peru," that any reasonable offers of sur render would be eagerly accepted. The Commodore of the line of battle ship Asia, on gaining intelligence of that death-blow to Spa nish ascendancy, the battle of Ayacucho, instead of co-operating with Rodil, and throwing into Callao a further supply of provision and ammunition, which he could haie done (the Patriots net having a ship larger than a frigate), made a shameful and inglorious retreat with his squadron, and has not since been heard of. It has been confidently, though falsely, stated in the English Newspapers, that the Royalist General Olaneta had, together with a body of men, espoused the cause of the Patriots; on the contrary. ht had col- lected several hundred men, and kept possession of the Mines In Upper Peru. A short time back his troops revolting, a battle en sued, atid be was slain. The island of Chloe, separated from the Continent by a narrow strait, still holds out. Its garrison being much reduced by sickness, and it is said disaffected to ate Spanish cause, would make but a fis ble resistance. News of its surrender aredaily expected. It is at pi esent unmolested ; but, on the fall of Callao, should the Patriot aluadrou appear before it, no doubt the garrison would capitulate. These two places are all that the Royalists now hold in South Ame. rica. Apparently, in a few weeks, they will be in the hands of the Pa triots, when this country will be entirely free, and, it is to be hoped, for ever separated from the Spanish yoke. Captain Basil Hall's Work on South America, is much too flat teeing an account. Licked, be appears to have visited these countries, whir the determination of being pleased with everything. The inhabitants hive not attained that refinement, nor do they possess t ideas of liberty which he represents. _ His book marlin*, been, in movie measure, instrumental in prepossessing the yet people of England In favour of the independence of South Anse*. which is, probabl?, what be chiefly aimed at. This station Is rather, a dull one to us Navy folks, there being but little society. All the IMcessary articles of life are extremely high priced. The ships of .war are muds of their time at anchor, merely running frosts port, to port. it may be compared to a coasting voyage, and the,trade. specie.

Harnistorgh P..pers to the '2Oth ult. and Dutch Papers to the 3d inst. reached os this forenoon, but they dile, very barren of intelligence. Lord STRANOIPORD, the. new British Ambassador to the Court of St. Peters burgh, has arrived at that capital, to which the French Ambassador, Count FERRONATS, had returned. It is , stated in these Papers, that Count Wonotiaow, the Governor-General °hew Russia, being in better health, will not avail himself of leave to go abroad until next spring ; and that Admiral Grterc will not assume the Provisional Government of New Russia and Bessa- rabia, till after the Count's departure. On the 11th September, St. Alexander's 'Day was kept with great solemnity at Schuschi, the capital of the Province of Karabacha, conquered from Persia.— i Prince MADALOW, the Russian Governor, had invited several Persian Tartars and Armenians of distinction to the enterta?nment given on the occasion. _ The most favourable accounts continue to be received from Taganrog, respecting the health of the Empress ELIZAMTH. The following are extracts : HANOVER, NOVI:WM 25. A Royal Proclamation has been issued, calling a new Assembly of the Estate of the Kingdom, which is to meet on the 23d January. In the proclamation dis solving the Assembly of the States, which was opened on the 2Sth of December, 1819, his Majesty testifies his sati-faction with the proceedings of the Assembly, and its pauiotic efforts to promote the welfare of the kingdom. STOCKHOLM, Novnages. The Committee of Legislature has completed the re vision of the new Swedish Code, and it is hoped that it will shortly be laid before the supreme tribunal and the Council of State f. r examination. The citizens of Helsingherg are said to have addressed the Government against the proposed increase of the garrison of that town,with st view to suppress smuggling. —...--. Madras Papers have arrived to the 29th of July, but they do not contain any political information. One of the French Journals contains an article from Madrid, which states what every person out of that capital has known long ago, that little hopes remain of Spain preserving even a small part of her Colonial possessions. It appears that a M. PINILLOS, the New Intendant of Havannab, has not only had the sense to perceive the situation of his country as to her Colonies, but the honesty and courage to make it known to the King of SPAIN himself, as well as the Cabinet of Madrid. The following is the article to which we allude: PROM THE COURIER FRANCAIS ON SATURDAY. MADRID, Novenae.* 4. rarvars eoeueseormace. In proportion as t►e truth comes to light, we Use the little hope which remained of preserving a small part of our tranunarine pos sessions. Official dispatches were received a few days ago, which ►aveZluown our Ministry into consternation. M. Phonies, the new Intendant of the Havannah, baa written from the United States, where he bas stopped en his way to his destination ; he announces not only to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, but to the King Itim srlf, that the Naval and Military preparations which are now making in Colombia and Mexico are so eonsidetable, that it must be considered as impeeellsie long to defend the bilge( Cuba anti that of Porto Rico against tin , attacks which appear to be manifested against them. The hostile force will alse lind a powerful ausiliary in the elements of discord which prevail in the interion, and in the fermentation Which the republican spirit excites. The report of M. Pinillos says also, that the fears which these preparations inspire, must extend beyond the colonies which have remained faithful to the mutter country. Spain itself ought to be on its guard. Next spring the enemy will not confine himself to privateering war ; a landing on the coasts where the discontent is most general, may very likely take place, and augment the em barrassnient of the Government. In short, the picture he draws is most alarming, and has excited the most serious uneasiness. It is remarked, that the conferences between the King and the Duke del Infantado hate since been very frequent. • The prosecution of the French Journal, the Coasti tutioanei, has failed, the Judges of the Cour Royale having pronounced a verdict of acquittal. This deci sion is a defeat of the Clergy, who we consider to have urged the prosecution against the inclinations of M. de VILLELL We trust that the trial of the. Courier Francais will terminate in a similar manner, and that the freedom of discussin will thus be established in France, though we should not be surprised to find the defeated party recommending a revival of the censorship. The Meetings of the Catholic Association in Dublin are now so frequent, and the speeches with which the orators entertain or fatigue each other, are so long, that their proceedings sometimes escape observation, when they are entitled to notice. Such is the case with the Meeting which took place on Friday last, when the lead ers of the Association completely identified themselves ' with the rebellious manifesto of the resident Irish in New York. Mr. O'CoNNELL took the lead, as he does on occasions where the cause he professes to ad vocate is to be injured, or the Government of England to be abused. What the Address of the Itish Catholics of New York is, we have shewn ; it is an incendiary one, written for no other purpose bur to excite foreign nations to in terfere between the Government of this country and its Roman Catholic subjects, by men who are exiled from their country on account of their political conduct and offences, during a period when it was attempting, by calling in the Aid of the French, to separate Iceland from Great Britain. It is written by men, one of ! whom, Dr. WNEVIN a CAMS so little for the Roman Catholic religion, that he declared he did not prefer it to Mahommedanism. Yet this Dr. M'NEVIN is now the . " fine animal" of Mr. O'Corrtact ; and he and his associates are carted " men, whose only faith, it they had a fault, consisted in loving Ireland too well"---men, , who " sacrificed themselves to the exaggeration of a principle, which, undoubtedly, is in itself, grand and noble." • it is wit a little singular, that Me. O'Coura FEL, who .caries the duCtrine of passive obedienee into such prac. 6;41 effect,,that if he is smote on one cheek, he turns' the other to the smiler, should find such gentle terms for tebeHion against' Gavernment, aided by the enemies of •he country. When be thus eulogizes the individuals.. it can cache no surprise that he praises their addiess, .-_ which he does in the warmest terms. " I do not know,'' says he, " that in the course of my life I ever read any production wish more unng:ed•feelings of pleasure and gratitude." These sentiments of Mr. O'Comitt.t. were re-echoed by several other speakers; and the catholic Association of Ireland has now for its allies the Irish Mal contents of America, for whose advice and co-operation Mr. O'Costaxu. declares the warmest gratitude and re spect of the Roman Catholics is due. How far the cause of emancipation will be advanced by the union of such persons, it does not require much foresight to prophecy. Another meeting of the Dutlin Catholic Association took place on Saturday, an account of which will be found in this day'sPaper.On this occasionMr.O'CoNunt. was as prudett, and his language as temperate, as usual; the Duke of Yonx was honoured with the abuse of the Orator, and the Throne, to which he is presumptive heir, whence justice is dispensed in mercy, was called, by Mr. 0 4 CONSFI,L, ‘4 a sanguinary and a dreadful Throne." Comment on such language is unnecessary ; it must bring down on the author the reprobation of every good and wise man, Protestant or Catholic. BRIGHTON, DEC. 5. A Meeting has been held here, and it ought to have occurred before, the object of which was to remove the mean houses which have long been a nuisance to his MAJESTY'S property in Church-street. The owners have male enormous demands, it seems, for the said houses, but are likely to be disappointed in their views, as a Itesolution was passed at the said Meeting that, agree ably to the new Act of Parliament, a Jury should be summoned to as•ess their value, and that the law, sub sequently, should be enforced to compel their disappear ance without delay. The Hon. Mr. and Mrs. Jsavis have taken possession of a house in Bedford-square; they left their names at the Palace this morning.

This long-litigated cause, which, after havinm g on i through the Courts below, was tak en to the [l%, e of Lords, on an appeal from the decr ee o f Sir William Grant, Master of the Rolls, who d ec id e d that the tepresentatives of the late Lady Bath mere seised i n fee of certain estates, sit nate in Saske Newingtn n , w ,,, again brought under consideration. Th e House of Lords having decided that Lady Bath was t h e absolute owner of the property, and that her ladyship h ad re. deemed the land-tax in her own prope r person, and f or her own use and benefit, a question wa s rose by sir Thomas Sutton, whether she was more than ac o p y . holder? On the one side it was contend e d, that the redemption was made for the benefit of the e tee, a n d the defendants having admitted that Lid) , Bath WE the sole and absolute owner of the property, those sivi took under her ladyship must necessarily have an esrp u t claim. On - the other side it was contended, that the only question far consideration was, whether this was real or personal estate? That Lady Bath having d! e d without, children, Sir Thomas Sutton became entitled; and that Lady Bath was only a tenant for life, as in the event of her having had children, they would hav e taken the property as customary heirs. After consider able discussion, ' _ The MASTEL of the Roue said, as the Learned Co tins o kr the defendants contended, thdt copyholders did not come within the Act of Parliament for the redemption of the hnd.tax, and as he bad not an immediate recollection of the case, be would read over the bin and answer, and refer to the settletusnts as they peered before the House of Lords.

ADMIRALTY COURT, Dediataaa 5. GENOA PMIZE-MONEY. Dr. PHILLIRIORL and Dr. LUSHINCITMI II pp! ated ' on behalf et Count Ludolf, Athbassador from the C om of Naples, claiming, es ecio, a sum of money in the hands of Chelsea Hospital, as part of a grant of p i ; tt . money made to the joint captors of Genoa and its (J... pendencies, in the year 1814. It appeared from their statement, that 120,0001. was awarded to the Iltiti,l l and Sicilian forces on that occasion ; 80,00(.1. to tl.t. British, and 40,0001. to the Sicilians. These grant s were regulated by three Acts of Parliament, 47th and ' 48th of Geo. Maud 4th of Geo. IV. as well as by an Order in Council. The sun now claimed, and which was the last outstanding demand between these parties, was 12911. which had been paid into Chelsea Hosp:t.l on behalf of Captain Hall, late a Post Captain in the British Navy, row deceased. Captain Hall also 114.4 the rank of Major• General conferred upon him by his Sicilian Majesty, and commanded the Flotilla, manned by a joint force of British and Sicilians on the occa sion in question ; and the amount was entered in the books of Chelsea Hospital under the head of Sicilian Prin. Money. The Acts of Parliament mentioned were passed to enable the auxiliary force resident in Sicily to receive the amount awarded to them with greater faci lity ; and hence the Ambassador from that Court tor the time being was empowered to receive such amount, according to the regulations adopted in respecr of such distribution. The KING'S ADVOCATE (with whom Dr. ARNOLD was) contended that Captain Hall had shared already as Captain in the British Navy, and that Count Ludolf had no claini as far as this sum, which, in fact, ought to be divided among . the Officers of the first class, viz. Lord ExaltsUth, who commanded the Navy, and Lord William Bentinck, who was in command of the Army ; and any other persons who might have been associated with them, agreeable to the regulations of his Majesty in respect of Pi izes. Count Ludoif could only claim through Captain Hall, and Captain Hall, had already received his proportion as a Captain in the British Nary, to the amount of 7001. and it was, therefore, out of the question that he could now claim by his represe.:• mitres in any other capacity. Captain Hall was neither a Sicilian, nor had been resident in &city, a desciiptint which was entirely necessary to support the claim now set up. That the double apportionments of the amounts to Captain Hall in both services WAS entirely a mistake, and that, therefore, Chelsea Hospital were fully war ranted in resisting this demand, in order that they might have the authority of the Court as to who were the proper parties to whom the amount should be The Hospital were but stakeholders, and they were oaly anxious to do that which justice demanded! Dr. JENNEE appeared for the representatives of Capt. Hall, and stated that, from the arguments used by his Learned Friends on the other side, he should clearly adduce his clients right, not to the whole amount of the sum of 12911. but to a sum added to that which Captain Hall had already received as a Post Captain, viz. 7001. which would make the former amount. He (Dr. Jenner) considered it as settled that an 011rer l acting in a double capacity could make Ms election to take in the higher capacity, and contended that, on that ground, he was entitled to the difference. The remaining sum to go into distribution in the second class, with whom Captain Hall, as a Post Captain, had shared. Lord Srowimr. said, he supposed it was not intended to take vaith both hands, as Captain Hall with one, and as Major-general Hall with the other. The question was one of very considerable difficulty, and the Counsel had not been able to help him to any case •ri point. HbLord. ship stated his doubts as to the jurisdiction of the Con , and recommended the Counsel who had to reply (Dr. Phillimore and Dr. Lusbington) very seriously to con. sider the questions involved in this matter. I n open sion, his Lordship complained of this business twill been delayed until the last day of Term, and said lie should intimate to the Registrar when he would resole the discussion.
