under my command, on board the boats of his Majesty's ship Liffey, commanded by Lieutenant Wilkinson, of the Royal Navy, having four row-boats for the convey ance of the soldiers, for the purpose of dislodging the enemy from the village of Killyumdine and the adja cent villages. Agreeably to my instructions, I landed the troops at a small village about a mile from Killyumdine, where I observed a party of the enemy had stockaded them selves, and immediately attacked their position, which I carried, after exchanging a few rounds and killing ten or.twelve of the enemy. I then endeavoured to penetrate the jungle towards the village of Killyumdine, far the purpose of assailing it by the rear, while thLboats attacked it in the front, but I regret to say that I found the jungles so imper vious as to prevent me from executing this part of my instructions. I therefore re-embarked my detachment, asd pro ceeded in the boats. On approaching a point higher up, intending to land, - we found ourselves suddenly exposed to a heavy 'fire from a stockade, till then unobserved, and as any at tempt to retire would have exposed the detachment to certain destruction, and would have given encourage ment to the enemy, which I felt convinced you would have highly disapproved of, Lieutenant Wilkinson,R.N. and myself resolved upon immediately landing and storming the sttackade. We had many unforeseen difficulties to overcome, the enemy having placed bamboos and pikes so as to make landing both difficult and dangerous. Nothing however could withstand the gallantry and determination of both soldiers and sailors, who shortly established themselves within the stockade, defended by about four hundred men, who were quickly driven out 4.! the point of the bayonet, leaving sixty dead. _ The enemy were well armed. a great proportion having muskets; and a small field-piece was taken in the stockade, and I must do them the justice to say that they fought with very great spirit, many of them re ceiving our charge with their spears. I again re embarked my patty and proceeded to the oppo.ite side of the river, where we drove the enemy from a third stockade, which we destroyed in the same manner as we had done the twciformer. In concluding, I regret to state, that Lieutenant Thomas Kerr, of hi; Majesty's 38th Regiment, and one private was killed, and nine privates wounded, in taking the second stockade ; and I have further to regret, that Lieutenant Wilkinson, of the Royal Navy, was severely wounded through the thigh, with eight or nine of his crew, one of which has had his arm subsequently am putated. I have much satisfaction in reporting the conduct of the Officers and men under my command, to have been steady and soldier-like. I hope I may be allowed to express the highest admiration of the cool and intrepid conduct of Lieutenant Wilkinson, Royal Navy. who, although severely wounded, continued to render me the greatest assistance in giving ,directions from his boat, also of the Officers and men under his command. I have, &c. R. BIRCH, Capt. H. M.33th Rest. COPY OF A DISPATCH FROM BRIGADIER-GENERAL SIR ARCHIBALD CAMPBELL, K.C.B. TO GEORGE SWINTON, ESQ.

T, which arrived at Liverpool on Monday, from Buenos Ayres, intelligence' , has been received from that city to the lOth of Septem ber. A Mail from Chili had arrived ) bringing intelligence of the arrival of Ms Majesty's ship AOROItA, Captair. PRZSCOT, at Valparaiso, from Callao, which she left on e 4th of July. By her letters have been received from Lima to the 4th of July. They state that Mr. ROWCROPT had arrived in that city, and was fulfill ing the functions of Consul-General in behalf of the English merchants. He called a meeting of the British commercial residents on the 30th of June, to whom he exhibited his commission, and read extracts from. the in structions given him by Mr. Secretary CANNING. These, it appears, did not permit him to carry on trade, nor to charge any commission, but authorized him to certify any instrument as a notary, and to claim a re muneration for that service. He was particularly charged not to encourage any illicit traffic, either against the laws of England or those of the country in which his official residence was fixed. No mention is made of Mr. ROWCROIIB having presented his creden tials to the Spanish authorities in Lima. The blockade cf Callao by theferuvian squadron had, it seems, placed the English merchants in some difficulty, as General RODIL, the Spanish officer in that fortress, on the ap proach of Admiral Guts; refused to allow any com munication between the shore and such English mer chant vessels as were lying at anchor in a distant part of the bay, with the view to prevent any information being conveyed to the patriot blockading vessels. Through the exertions, however, of Captain NIALING, of his Majesty's ship CAMBRIDGE, who was applied to by the merchants, such arrangements were made as satisfied General RoDIL, and the communication with the shore was placed on its former footing. Tile folloHing is an extract : "LIMA, JULY 3. " A reinforcement for General Bolivar was landed at Supe about the 20th June: the numbers are reported at 3000 or 7.500. The Spanish Generals, Camerae and Valdez, have distinct commands, and there is a spirit of jaalousy existing between them ; so that, it is supposed, they will always act independently, and that neither of them will act insubordination to the other:. This circumstance is, of course, favourable to Bolivar. " The Spanish privat,se Quintanella was captured some time since, by the Prencn corvette Diligence, and carried into Valpa raiso, for irregular and piratical acts. The 'Viceroy is offended at this, and has embargoed the property of Frenchmen in the In. termedios, &c. " It is the opinion of many, that General Bolivar, having now about 12 or 14,000 men, will not be long before he moves forward to attack the Spanish troops under General Canterac. It is reported that Geheral Valdez is near Potosi, and that he has gone in a hos tile manner against General Olaneta ; but this wants confirmation. " A recent band°, by General Rodil, imposing severe penalties of death, &c. on individnals smuggling treasure on board ships, and en custom-house officers for conniving at it, has produced a cessation of, the practice. At present the duty on shipping dollars is 8 per cent.' French Papers of Wednesday, and private letters of' Tuesday, have been received. The former contain no I news of any importance; but it is stated in one of the private letters, that the bonds of amity between this country and France are strengthened; and that CLIARLES X. has invited the Duke of WELLINGTON, and several of our Minister!, to be present at his coronation. The French Rentes were at 101 f. 90c. and were expected to advance to 103 f. This forenoon we received Brussels Paper; to the 25th instant. They state that the KING of the NETHER LANDS has been for some time slightly indisposed, but is now better ; a Levee, fixed for Wednesday last, had, however, been put off. One of these papers states, that there has been a seizure ef some manuscripts belonging to the Editor of a Literary Journal in that city. The result of the investigation at Berlin, into •the affair of M. Cousin, who was arrested at Dresden, is not known. —The Prussian papers contend that the arrest of the Professor is not contrary to the law of nations, because an individual who goes to Germany with criminal in tentions, is liable to arrest in all the countries of the con federation, which are considered, in this point of view, as forming only one State. It seems that the accusations brought against the learned Professor, are not of so serious a nature as some papers would insinuate, and that the French Government itself has interfered in his favour. The fall of the Funds at Vienna gives rise to reports of all kinds. Some persons pretend, that in the next Spring an Austrian Army of Observation will be sta tioned in the fortresses bordering on Turkey. It is, how ever, added, that this needs confirmation ; that the Porte, whose embarrasments daily increase, has applied to several Coorts for the execution of a treaty, finally guaranteeing the integrity of its territory. It does not appear how it can obtain the assent of Russia, while the Ottoman troops continue to occupy Moldavia and Wallachia, which is directly contrary to the treaty of Bucharest, concluded in 1812. 1257 The Supreme Military Tiibunal, which is instead of the High Tribunal of the Diet of Poland, has passed a sentence by which Major Lukasinsky is condemned to nine years' imprisonment in a fortress; and Lieut.-Col. Dobrogoysky, and Lieut. Dobrezisky, for seven years. The Lieut.-Colonel is also deprived of the right of wearing the Military Orders of France and Poland. It is remarkable that the sentence does not mention the crime of which these Officers have been guilty. The Emperor of RUSSIA has remitted two yea,: of their imprisonment. Boston Papers to the 4th inst. have reached us. One of them contains an article from Carthagena, stating vaguely, that a great battle had been fought between BOLIVAR and CANTERAC, in which the former was victorious.—lt is reported that the President of the United States intends to propose to Congress the forma tion of a new department in the Government, for home affairs. The French squadron, which anchored in the Chesa peake during the hurricane season, has sailed for Martinique. DRURV-LANE THEATRE: The Comedy of As you like it, was last night revived at this Theatre, in a more operatic shape than it has usually assumed. The original songs have been pre served, and several others, the words born SHARSPEA RE, have been very appropriately introduced. The gay, yet sensitive Rosalind—that kind spirit who wishes to fling over deeply-wounded feelings the light veil of mirth and pleasantry, was personated by Mrs. YATES. It was a light pretty performance. Her lover, Orlando, was creditably represented by Mr. WALLACK. Mr. MAC READY played Jaques, and assumed the moody melan choly of this half-misanthropic character with more ef fect than we have seen it assumed since Mr. BereaLe, with his tremulous tones, was wont to pour forth the feelings of a diseased mind. Mr. MACREADY gave the well-known " Seven Ages" in a beautiful style. Mr. Tsitafs Adam was a sensible performance. Mr. HAR LEY, as nuchstone, was perfectly mercurial. He got through the part with much credit. The singing parts of Celia and Phcebe were respectably filled by Mrs. BEDFORD and Miss POYEY. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. The Marquis of Lothian left town yesterday for Hatfield, on a visit to the Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury.' The Earl and Countess Cowper have arrived in town from their seat, Pansenger, Berta, on their way to Brighton. Lord and Lady Ellenborough arrived in town yesterday, from their seat at Roehampton.

Departures:—General the Marquis of Harcourt, fur Oxford ; Mr. Airs. and Miss Probyn, for Gloucestershire. The Duke of Your( visited his Maserry yesterday. The Duchess of Graincerrys received visits on Wednesday from the Duchess of KENT, the Princess Soma, the Princess SOPHIA MAm.nA, the Princess VITTORIA, and the Princess Femme ; and yesterday was visited by the Princesses SoPHIA and FSOOOII.I. Her Royal Highness was not quite so well yesterday. his Excellency Count PUEBLA DEL MAESTRE,‘Am bassador F.straordinary from his Catholic Majesty to the Court of France, has arrived in Paris. Lord STRANGFORD is expected in Vienna from Trieste, where he landed on the Sd. The reigning Duke of BRUNSWICK arrived at his capital on the 50th October, on his return limn his tour through Italy and France, just as the birth-day of his Royal Highness was celebrkted in the Theatre, where all the Officers of the Court, who had heard nothing of his return, were pr es ent. The young Earl of HoourouN having completed his 21st year on the 15th inst. a number of the tenants upon his Lord ship's estates in the county of Linlithgow, joined by the tenants of the estate of Rosyth, in the county of Fife, met at Newhall's inn to celebrate the event, and *hew their attachment to the noble family of Iforrerieu, upon whose property most of them have passed their lives. Fifty sat down to dinner, Mr. Dudgeon llnnibk, in the chair, Mr. Walker, Orchard-head, and Mr. rlsilar, IN idslry Nlains, croupiers. Many toasts were given, and the evening was spent with the inmost harmony. By letters from Genoa, of the 13th instant, we learn that a dreadful gale teas experienced on the coast of Sardinia on the 31st ultimo, which continued a week. No accounts had been received of the damage done to the shipping, but it was expected future advices would bring a most calamitous detail. It was 'likewise re ported, that• the hurricane had caused considerable injury on land as well as at sea. Papers from Montreal• to the 15th ult. state, that 14 persons belonging to the Hudson's Bay Company haJ been murdered by the Snake and Beaver Indians, and that one of the forts had been entirely destroy ed. By accounts from the Havanna to the middle of Oc tober, we learn that the privateers fitted out in the United States under the Colombian flag, continued to infest that coast, and were a great annoyance to trade. In order to put a stop to piracy, the Gavel nor ;rad determined to cut off all intercourse with Key West, and no vessels were suffered to clear out for that point. By private letters from Smyrna, we are informed that accounts had reached that city of serious disturbances having broken out in Syria. The Miselenos of the Pacha of Aleppo had been expelled from Lattakia and Tripoli, and the Emir of Druses, as well as Mosvmsa BERBER, were advancing on St. Jean d'Acre. The Prussian Government has addressed, to the dif ferent Universities, some authentic information respect ing the spit it of the Secret Society known by the name of Burschenschel. 6 S This document," says the Etoik, tt which is entitled to the greatest attention, may be re garded as a succinct recapitulation of the inquiries which have been carrying on since 1819, and which are still in progress. It confirms the general opinion, that the Secret Associations of the Students do not in them selves contain anything that is dangerous, but that they are extremely reprehensible in two points of view: Ist, because Revolutionists may avail themselves, as they have done, of these Associations to propagate their in surrectionary doctrines, and so promote their practical accomplishment ; and 2J, because Secret Associations having been prohibited, individuals who continue to be long to them are guilty of a violation of the laws." A Calcutta Paper of the 12th of June thus explains the origin of the charge insinuated against the late Governor-General of India :-- 1 . We are given to under stand that the following is the explanation of the origin of the rumour respecting the deficiency of 300,0001. and which was made the subject of insinuation against Local Hastings. A clerk at the India House (Audit office) having made an error in summation of 300,0001. in last year's accounts, mentioned to some other clerk that there was that deficiency in the Treasury ; he again repeated the story, making the deficiency in the Indian Treasury ; and when it was again mentioned, it obtained the addition of Bengal Treasury,' and that the defi ciency must have been occasioned by Lord Hastings ; last came the charge in the prints, that Lord Hastings had abstracted to the above amount from his own trea sury. While the rumour was thus spreading, the error was observed and corrected, and consequently the matter was a surprise to' the Direction, and appeared unworthy of an answer. The prints had to retrace their authority, and the foregoing was the result." tilE AfiMY .

CRIMINAL INFORMATION. Mr. ADAMS moved for a rule to shell• cause why a criminil in. formation should not be issued against Captain and Lieutenant M. cholas, brothers, Officers in the Navy, and a Mr. Day, for a breach of the peace, in using threatening and provoking language to Al t . Soday, an Alderman of the Borough of East Looe. It appearel that two days after deponent's arrival from France, Lieut. Nicholas and Mr. Day went to his house, each armed with a horsewhip; Ile. Day told him that Captain Nicholas wished to see him, for the potpie of giving bins a horsewhipping; he requested them to ( 1 3 about their business, when Mr. W. Nicholas said, ,4 I have ser7..d my King and country with honour, but you and your brother, C a p t . Soday are cowards," &c. The Learned Counsel said, the affidavit of Mr. Soday denied giving either of the parties the slightest pr o . vocation for the attack. Deponent had formerly served with Sir Home Popham, a 4 a Purser in the Navy. LORD CHIRP' Jusvics.—Take a rule to thew cause. A medical gentleman was attending a female in labour at StinCrOSc, on T►►esday morning, when ti.e water gained so fast on the pound floor that it was thought advisable to quit the house ; the gentlerna.►, omatt, and attendants w ere accordingly taken in a boat from the window, and had not Inni quitted the house when it fell. It is stated in an United States Paper, that there ate upwards of biz thousand applicants for the station of midshipmen. Among t' e long list of shipwrecks and losses occa. sioned by the late heavy gales, is that of the Duhl;n ketch, formerly a packet at Holyhead, Jt.hn Jones ma:- - ter, which sailed from Milford for Amlwch about a mot th age. The ship's company consisted of ca i ;tail, m. te, and four st amen ; besides whom, there were .on oard two passenger s, young lads of respectable parents, who had been to South Wales on an e'en' sion of pica .... sure, and were returning home in this sesse'. SI-e was seen on her passage between Milford and Holy and has never been heard of since. Circumstances having transpired which excited sus picion as to the occasmn of the late dreadful liie at Biggleswade, an investigation took place on Monday last, before W. IWhitbread, Esq. and the Rev. J. when it being clearly ascertained that it was caused by the carelessness and gross negligence of William Bass, the bar e-keeper, he was convicted by the said Justices in the penalty of 1001. and in defata of payment was committed to the House of Correction, at Begotd, for IR months, pursuant to the Statute 14th Geo. HI. cap. 78. It is highly important to the public that the pm visions of tht., Statute should be known and acted upon. iday night last, a dreadful explosion took place in the Margaret Pit, near Newcastle, which, with others, is comprehended under the title of Newbottle Colliery. Eleven men were killed. At the last Essex Sessions, twelve persons (amongst whom were Lieutenant WEIITH, R.N. THOMAS ASHEN, a wealthy farmer, and two respectable tradesmen) wen. convicted of a riot at Brentwood, and assaulting two common informers, by dragging them through a ditch, and immersing them in soil and filth, for which they were sentenced to one month's imprisonment in Chelms ford Jail. Their imprisonment having terminated on Thursday morning last, a stage-coach, with four horses, decorated with blue ribbons, was sent from Brentwood to convey them to their respective homes; a band of music met them at Shenfield, when the horses were taken from the coach, which was drawn into Brentwood by men provided with topes, amidst the hearty congratulations of their families and friends The annual Cattle Fair, at Louth, in Lincolnshire, held on Tat day laq, was well attended, and good prices given. A gang of horse stealers has got into that part of the country, and are cont• mittiug great depredations. On the night of the fair, Mr. Parker, of Loath, bad two mares stolen out of his paddock ; and the same evening, Mr. Lucas, of the same place, also lost a mare. GLASGOW CAT= Masse, Nov. 22.—There were 413 Black Cattle in this day's market ; of these a very small proportion were prime, which sold readily at about 9s. a stone. There were 1380 Sheep in market, a considerable part of which remained uesold ; Black-faced Wedders sold at from 14s. 6d. to 20s. Ewes at from Bs. to 16s. a head. No White-faced Sheep at market. Mural= Cams Mammy, Nov. li.—Numbers anti kinds. — Three-years-olds, 30; two-years olds, 148 ; highlanders, 300 ; que) • . 201 ; stirks, 113 ; cows, 10 ; total, 802. Prices were a little or , the ecline, but not to such an extent as to justify any dismal fere bodings respecting the approaching Martinmas Wednesday. There were very few heavy Galloway beasts on the Sands, and those that were shewed but indifferently, compared with what we have beer. accustomed to for a long time past. Their highest prices did not exceed 10 guineas and £ll. Sonic lots of two-year-olds came very near them both iu size and condition, and sold at very little beneath them in price—from £6 15s, to £9 15s. The whole of the high landers shewn were remarkably small, and dealing among thou seemed to be rather backward; prices from £3 10s. to £5 15S. There were some very good mixed lots of queys and heifers, but they were not in general so strong as those of last week. Their prices varied from £4 to £7 10s. and for one particularly good lot £7 18s. was given. The best lot of stirks sold at £6 7s. and their lowest price was about ,C 3. Cows appeared to be a little more in demand, but there were only two or three in the market of the mprting kind, and the highest price we know given for any of them was £5 10s. and £6. Pmts.—Eight cans; prices from Ts. 6d. to 12.5. Average same as last week. Maav-i.a.-Bonaz.—A woman named Wheeler, was charged by Mary Collins, of Bell -street, Liston Grove, with robbing her of a pocket, containing two coral necklaces, one with pearl clasps ; se veral brooches, fi ve gold seals, several gold rings, shirt pins, a quan tity of loose beads bits of gold, silver, Sic. The Magistrate ex pressed some surprise at her possessing so many valuable article:.-- Complainant said she was a dust sifter, and was in the daily habit of fi nding valuable articles therein. S he was in the employment of Mr. Kelly, a dust contractor, who allowed her eightpence a load for sifting, besides spoons, and other articles she might find.— The Magistrate asked her how many spoons she found in a year? She said it was impossible to say ; she had followed that occurtion eight years, and had saved enough to begin house-buildw„; ; and had then a house erecting which she expected would cost her Z.o;tl. She had deposited In Mr. Kelly's hands 1006 Si part payment, and, in confirmation of what she said, produced a box, containing thirty nine sovereigns, two 5!. notes, several guineas and half sovereigns, and several duplicates of articles found, such as rings, table and tea-spoons, forks, and gold brooches.—The Magistrate expressed his surprise, but there being no evidence to corroborate the suspi cion against the prisoner, she was discharged. The bank of Messrs. Oldaker, Tomes, and Chattawayi at Stratford-upon-Avon, was broken open on the night of Monday, and robbed of a large number of their local notes, of 11. 51. and 101. besides a considerable amount in sovereigns, Bank of England notes, and notes of other banks.
