The Rentes on Saturday were rosf.sc. for money; 103 f. SOc. for time. srkl h Lisbon Papers to the 6th instant have reached us. The Committee charged with the revision and liquida tion of the public debts have represented to the King 'of PORTUGAL the necessity of new measures to remove the obstacles which oppose the progress of the said re vision and liquidation, without which it will not be possible to obtain an exact and legal knowledge of the amount of the debt,nor to fix the means for the progres sive payment. The KING has, in consequence, issued a Decree, by which his MAissicv not only prolongs till the la't day of December of 1826, the time for the pre sentation of claims,but abolishes,as odious and unjust.the difference that was made between the several creditors. The King of SPAIN has revoked what was determined by the Royal Order of 4th July, 1824, dispensing only the Captains of foreign merchantmen from proving, 'by certificates of Spanish Consuls in foreign ports, that they have really entered on boar 4 of them the goods which, on their arrival in the poits of Spain, they declare that they bring in transitu for the said ports, the reasons which gave rise to that Royal Order having partly ceased. We have received United States Papers to the 16th ult. The angry feeling manifested by the partizans of General JACKSON On the election of his rival, appears to have subsided. The affair between Mr. KSAMER, a Member of the House of Representatives, and Mr.Cm, the Speaker, his net been terminated. Mr. KRAMER refused to attend the Committee appointed to investigate the matter. The following is the judicious address of Mr. ADAMS 'to the Committee appointed to communi cate to him his elevation to the Presidential Chair : " Glort.ness—ln rteeiving this testimonial from the Represen tatives of the People and States of this Union, I am deeply sensible of the circumstances under which !t has been given. All my pre- deceseors in the high station to which the favour of the House now calls me, have been honoured with majorities of theelectoral voices in their primary colleges. It has been my fortune to be placed, by the division of sentiment prewiling among our countrymen on this occasion, in competition, friendly and honourable, with three of my ft How citizens, all justly enjoying, in eminent degrees, the public favour ; and of whom worth, talents, and services, no one entertains a higher and more respectful sense than myself. The names of two of them were, in the fulfilment of the provisions of the Coned tution, presented to the selection of the /louse, in concurrence with my owu--oanses closely associated with the glory of the nation, and one of them further recommended by a lazier majority of the pri mary electoral suffrages than mine. " In this state of things, could my refusal to accept the.trust thus delegated to me give an immediate opportunity to the people to form and to express with a nearer approach to unanimity, the ob ject of their preference, I should not hesitate to decline the ac ceptance of this eminent charge, and toetthntit the dech a inn of this anonsentinis question spin their determination. Rut the Con stitution itself has not so disposed of the coutingency which would arise in the event of my refusal; I shall, sherd - ore repair to the pm assigned me by the call of my country, signifi ed through here 11... ' with the magnitude of the task before me, but cheered with the generous hope of that liberal support frail my fellow-citizens, • which, in the vicissitude? of a life de voted to their service, bas never failed to sustain me—confident in the trust, that the wisdom of the legislative councils will guide and direct me in the path of my official duty; and relying, above ail, upon the str:r.ffintending providence of that Baum ' in whose hand our breath is, and whose are all our ways.' 4 Gentlemen, I pray you to make acceptable to the House, the assurance of my profound gratitude for their anfidence, and to ac cept yourselves my thanks for the friendly terms on which you have communicated to me their decision. " Washington, Feb. to. JOHN QUINCY ADAMS." The Jamaica Papers contain the following; account of a disgraceful outrage perpetrated by the Negroes of Kingston and Spanibh Town. We extract the account fr9m a plivate letter " KINGSTON, JAN. 24. " Interested as you are in this island, it will no doubt be pleasing to you to learn that the minds of the Negroes appear to be quiet : they seem to know that they have been imposed upon. The ac counts from all parts of the island are, that the Negroes have passed the Christmas holidays with more good humour, and have enjoyed their drumming and dancing better than they have done for three years before. There are, no doubt, and ever *ill be, some disaY fected among them, bui in general they appear quiet and contented. " In Spanish Town the Negroes carried about an effigy of Air. Wmasaroacs, gave it several floggings, and then burnt it on the Ilace.course. At each flogging they sung a song they had made on him, indicating that he had deceived them, by promising to make them free, but had not sent the money to buy them ; that he was a liar, and bad only made a quarrel between them and their Mas ten. I trust everything will now remain quiet." Frankfort Papers, to the 14th instant, reached us this forenoon, but they contain nothing worth quoting. The French Papers of Saturday have reached us, but they possess little interest. In the Sitting of the Cham ber of Deputies on Thursday, the Keeper of the Seals introduced the law against sacrilege, and defended the infliction of capital punishment on the extraordinary ground, that though it would have been better that the law should have remained silent upon the guyed ; yet since it was made to speak, a less punishment than a capital one could not possibly be enacted. The Constitutionnel states, in a letter from Madrid, dated the 7th inst. that the King of SPAIN had again fallen ill, and his relapse is attributed to a circumstance somewhat remarkable. It is stated that FERDINAND was on his return from a review, when a person ap proached the carriage and cried aloud several times— " Death to the King !" The individual was instantly arrested, and on being interrogated, he boldly declared, his liked determination to repeat the cry, that he knew he should be condemned to death, but he would not tetracto. nor depart from his purpose. He was committed to prison. Some disturbances had broken out at Cuenca, which were quelled by the interference of an armed form The following is an extract from a private lettet from the Spanish capital Dr. Castello has advised his Majesty to quit the capital, which advice will be fol lowed as soon as the necessary funds can be gut toge ther, to enable the Royal Family to remove to Aran joez. The Captain-General of Andalusia has repre sented to his Majesty, that in many towns in his juris diction, several Officers on unlimited furlough, have actually died of hunger. The War Minister has written to the Minister of Finance, stating that his Majesty's heart was penetrated with grief at the hearing of nth misery, and that he ordered that measures should be taken to prevent its recurrence. The Minister of Finance has written to his subaltern agents that they sheuld employ a part of the contributions to alleviating this distress. But these agents state that they can get little or nothing from the people—so that these unfor tunate Officers continue to die with hunger." WINDSOR, MARCH 20.—This morning Divine Ser vice was performed at the Royal Lodge, in one of the dining rooms, by the Rev. Mr. SUMNER. his Majesty's health not being sulheientlyre-established for him to venture to the new Chapel. Saturday, the Princess AUGUSTA. visited the Duchess of GIAUCKSTEIL Her Royal Highness attended Divine Service yesterday, at the Chapel Royal, and afterwards took an airing in her carriage. The Duke of You means-to remove in the course of a few days, it being determined to pull down his present residence and erect another on the same spot for his Royal Highness, upon a much larger and improved scale. Yesterday, the Duke of YORK, the CHANCELLOR of the Excuxouxa, and a select party, dined with Fame' Marchioness of Londonderry, at her Ladyship's house, in St. James's-square. Saturday, the CHANCELLOR Of the EILCHIQURR had a numerous dinner party. Yesterday, at three o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, which was attended by all the Cabinet lainisters except Mr. Hummon. Mr. Secretary CANNING, came from Gloucester Lodge to attend the meeting,tuni we are happy to observe in an improved state of health. The Ca. binet continued their deliberations till a quarter before six. The Gazette of Saturday contains an order in Cou ill, dividing the Vicarage of Hackney into three distinct Rectories: . Tuesday night, a splendid fancy ball was given by the Officers of the Garrison, in Dublin,to Lord and Lady Commi xing, oo the occasion of their regretted departure from that ems. try, where, during their stay, they have acquired the friendsldir of the higher, and the esteemed veneration of all claims. Thursday, the LORD MAYOR of Dublin entertained Lord Commuting and his Staff at dinner at the Mansion-House, previous to his Lordship's departure for India. The Nobility at present in Dublin wereinvited, besides the High Sheriffs, and se veral members of the Corporation. Saturday night, Mrs. INCHBALD% Comedy of Wives as they were, and Maids as they are, was revived at Covent-Garden Theatre with complete sucsess. Miss Foote played the part of Miu Duration extremely well, and the Comedy was much applauded throughout. 'A Gentleman was found yesterday morning, on the road, near Maidstone, quite dead, and his gig upset a few yards from the body. Sunday se nnight, a Charity Sermon was preached at St. Clement's Church, Hastings, by the Rev. Hamm WyNcu, Rector' of Pett, and Chaplain to his Royal Highness the Duke 'of CAMBRIOCK, for the benefit and relief of our fellow-subjects in Hanover, who are suf fering so dreadfully in consequence of the recent fatal inundations in Hanover. The Learned Divine took for his text Matthew, chapter 25, verses 34, 35, and 36, and after describir.g,. with impressive and pa thetic eloquence, the nature and causes of the sufferers, he urged the great Christian duty of charity with much zeal and el quence. The . ,effect of this .excellent citsr., course was such as might be expected, and it w as fol- 1 ,lowed by a subscription of nearly 601. , :~~. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.

DIORAMA, REGENTS PARK. Saturday we were gratified with a private view of this beautiful and attractive Eihibition, which opened this day with the beautiful view of Chartres Cathedral, so much and so justly admired in the last Eshibitioa, and a new view of the Ruins of Holyrood Chapel by moon-light. It is actually impossible to convey by words any adequate idea of the fascination and perfect illusion of this magical picture. The scene itself is pic turesque to the highest conceivable idea of architectural representation ; far more so, indeed, from its dilapidated state (in which wild Nature's vegetative power is be ginning to re-assert her triumphs over the frail magni ficence of art), than can possibly consist with any en tireness, however accompanied, of the Most compli cated and magnificent edifice. But the poetry of the pencil hath touched with its inspirations the realities of the scene. Not only are the most favourable points of time and the most favourable state of the atmosphere , tioonlight, with a partial and incidental haze), selected for heightening_the solemn grandeur of the objects, and giving them thrtnost effective relief, a human and living interest is superaaded to that which is awakened by the mouldering tombs:that should chronicle the dead, by e introduction of a beautiful figure in maiden mourn (whiter with a zone of black), who is Held in holy passion still, Forgets herself to marble !" over a monamental pedestal, upon which burns a glim wring lamp, whose earthly and unsteady light (finely contrasted with the pale serenity of the lamps of heaven) quivers and undulates with alternately increasing and diminishing lustre (as if affected by the motions of the atmosphere) and gleams or glimmers on the project ing superficies of the votive altar upon which it . rests ; and renders conspicuous in picturesque re lief the pensive form that watches it. Nor is this all. The stars (neither dots of paint, nor spangles of silver foil) actually scintillate in their spheres, occasionally obscured and occasionally emerging from the misty clouds; while the moon gently glides with scarcely perceptible motion, now through the hazy, now through the clearer air; and the light reflected upon the walls and shafts, and shattered architrave, becomes dim or brilliant in proportion to the clearness or the obscurity of her course ; so that, if this be painting, however exquisite, it still is something more ; for the elements have their motions, though the objects they illuminate are fixed, and the ether bath its transparency, the stars their crystalline, and the lamp its vital flame, though the ruin and its terrene accompaniments have their opaque solidity. It is almost impossible to believe that instead of a painting we do not see the actual_ Chapel before us, and a devotee would al most be tempted to step into it to say his prayers. The DIAMOND frigate has arrived at Portsmouth from Mexico, having on board Mr. LIONEL HARVEY, one of the British Commissioners sent to that country. Tranquillity prevailed throughout Mexico, and- the Government was jproceeding with such measures as would tend to consolidate its power. The accounts from the Mines ate very favourable. Port-an-Prince Papers to the 9th January state, that the anniversary of Haytian independence was celebrated on the la,. during which the President delivered an address, in which he called on the Senate, the army, and the people, to " swear to posterity and to the whole world, to renounce for ever, not only the domination of France, but that of all other Powers whatever that may wish to reduce us to submission; and to die rather than cease to be free and independent." Dutch and Brussels Papers to the 20th instant have melted us. The latter inform us, that in consequence of the reduction of our import duties, a great degree of activity prevailed in various branches of the manufac tures of the Netherlands, particularly in those of iron in the Province of Liege and Namur. It was gluier patted that large exportations of raw iron would *take place to South America. Hamburgh Papers to the 16th instant, announce that the ratifications of the treaty between England and Sweden for the suppression of the Slave Trade has been exchanged. Advices from Alexandria to the end of January represent the cotton-raising speculation of the niche of Egypt to have.completely succeeded. It was expected that the next crop of Mako-Cotton alone would produce above 400.000 bales. MURDER AND ROBBERY.—Thunday morning, Wil liam Glover, residing at a lone souse at Ashford, near Melton Mowbray, , was discovered murdered, and his house plundered. The scene of the horrid crime was of a most affecting nature: his head was literally beaten . to pieces. It seems.that the old man his for some time past not lived on'the most friendly terms with his neigh bours. He was between 60 and 70 years of age. As yet there his been no discovery of the perpetrators of this diabolical dced.—Leicester Paper. BOW-STREET-THIS DAY. APPREHENSION OF GEOEOE HALL, THE FANATIC. This morning, George flak, the boot-maker, who was in custody' a short time at Woolwich, under a charge of distributing pamphlets among the soldiers, • advising ,them to lay down their arms, was !nought before Sir RICKARD litarna, charged by the Church. wardens of St. Clement Danes, with having interrupted Divine Service yesterday, in their Pathh Church, under the following , ex traordinary circumstances : it appeared from she statement of one of the Cburcbwardens, and the Beadle, that the prisoner had forwarded letters to several emi nent persons of the parish, containing printed bills, headed "To all men who love truth !" and announcing his intention to attend the church, for the purpose of contending wit's the preacher en a h certain portion of the prayer for the High Court of Parliament dur ing the Session. The following was quoted from the prayer, as the intended subject for discussion. " Most gracious GOD !—We humbly beseech thee, at for thi. kingdom in general, so especially for the High Court of Parlias meat, under our most religious and gracious King." The bill went on to ask, whether this was worshipping our Cal'- Ales in spirit and in truth ? Was it met mocking Gon to his face, and tempting the Hocv Snare by uttering that which was a bare faced lie, even while in the solemn act of prayer ? Would not a Paine or a Carlile be ashamed of such gross flattery, .wicked mock ery, base hypocrisy, and damnable heresy, and such lying to the Hoar Gums? and other nonsense too tedious to detail. When the Reverend Gentleman commenced the prayer, the prisoner rose in theChurcb, and interrupted him and the congregation by heaping language similar to that contained in the bill on him, telling him he was repeating lies, &c. The whole Church was in a state of ex treme confusion, until the Beadle proceeded to the pew in which be was, took him out of the Church, and placed him in safe custody. The prisoner did not deny the charge, and listened to the evidence very attentively. Sir R/CHARD Marne remarked, that such conduct was not to be to lerated in a country like this. our Clergymen were not to be calks, liars " in the execution of their religious functions." The prisoner denied having called hint directly " a liar;" he merely said he was telling a lie. Sir RICHARD—That amounts almost to the same thing. Tie asked the Churchwarden whether he intended prosecuting him? He re plied that he certainly did. • Sir RICHARD advised him to do so, as it was incumbent for the parish to check such irregular proceedings, and ordered the pri soner to find bail. HENRY THURTELL. This young man seems to be really deserving of much pity. When he was discharged, on Friday, Mr. Alli son,. a respectable coal-merchant, in Surrey -street, not only gave him shelter fur the night, but prevailed upon him to attend u iih him before the Magistrate next morn ing, in the hope that something might be done for him. Mr. HALLS received them kindly ; and.a conversation ensued, in which Henry Thurtell admitted that in early life his conduct had been very reprel ensible, though not criminal. Among other irregularities which had given great pain to his parents, he enlisted as a private soldier, in a dragoon regiment; and it appeated that this was the principal cause of their now refusing to receive him as their son. It,is said, his discharge from that regiment was purchased by his brother, the late John Thurtell ; but, be this as it may, he afterivards entered as a seaman in the Brazilian Independent ser vice, from which he is now recently returned, with ample proofs of his good conduct IA hilst he remaintd id it, as the following copy of a certificate, signed by Lord Cochrane himself, will abundantly shew ; •• This is to certify, that Henry Thurtell f after serving some tins* on board the frigate Piranga, was ordered to join the Pedro Pri micro ; which he did, at the Moro, St. Paul's, on the lath day of May, 1825 • and, on account of his very active and useful conduct, was promoted to the rank of masters mate ; in which capacity he continued to discharge his duty in a zealous and satisfactory manner up to the period of his discharge, which was given him at his own request, in the post of Maranhao, on the 14th day of Nov. 1824. " Gives at the Palace of Maranhao, the 17th day of Nov. 1824. (Signed) " COCHRANE and MARANHAO. " To >lt. Henry Thurtell. " Wm. Jackson, See." (It appears, however, that his discharge was not exactly by hie own request, but in consequence of some new arrangement of the Brazilian Government, by which many others were also left un provided for). Besides tbe certificate of Lord Cochrane, he bad other papers of a similar nature, and a very neatly-written journal of the voyages he has made, illustrated with charts and harbour plans of his own draw ing, all which skew him to be a sailor of no very ordinary merit ; and yet, for the last three months, as he assured the Magistrate, he has been almost continually seeking employment at sea, by every means in his power, without meeting with the slightest success let any one instance. " They object to the impediment in my speech," said he • " but I know that is not the real objection—it is the name of Thowlell which alarms everybody : and I never shall be able to do any good in this world." Mr. Hats, endeavoured to reason him out of his despondency, and assured him he would make a point of endeavouring to serve him. He bad no doubt, he said, that some vessel or situation abroad might be found, in which he might become both useful and happy ; and, in order that he might be the better able to answer any inquiries respecting hint, he begged him to leave his papers in his care. The poor fellow seemed quite overpowered by the interest ma nifested in his behalf; and withdrew in the company of Mr. Alli son, who also promised to further the ►ind intentions of the Ma .gistratt to the utmost of his ability. ITALIAN OPERA.—Saturday evening the perform ances commenced with the firrt act of Il Bar6iere di Seviglio. The part of the Count was performed by GARCIA, who appeared to be in the very best disposi tion ; Rosina was undertaken by Madame CARANORI, at a few hours' notice, on account of the indisposition of Madame Vanua. In the Divertissement which fol lowed, Monsieur and Madame Ronal VUTRIS distin guished themselves, and were encored in the graceful Spanish Castanet Dance which was so much *in favour last season. In place of the second act of the Opera, a new one was produced in one act, entitled Adelina, the plot of which reminds us slightly of Mei, at Co vent Garden Theatre. The music, by GENERALI, with out having great pretensions, is light, pleasing, and effective; the pans are well cast, and the Opera was altogether excellently performed and well received. Film—Saturday afternoon a fire broke out in the house of Mr. Coyston, toy and brush-manufacturer, No. 23, Bolingbroke-row, Walworth, which for some time occasioned considerable sensation in the neighbour hood. Scarcely an hour elapsed before the whole building was completely demolished, carrying the wall with it, which fell in with a loud crash, leaving nothing but a heap of burning ruins. Great apprehensions pre vailed for the safety of the adjoining houses, but the arrival of several engines from the metropo;is, and a supply of water, prevented it. Saturday, the extreme sentence of the law was carried into execution, at Winchester, on .lolt Smith, aged 26 ; James Dawes, aged SO; and William aged 22.
