• we , should suppose, no human being could long exist in:l and, indeed, the number of deaths, and the emaciated state of the survivors, too fully proved this to be the case! From the crowdei state of these vessels, we do rOt hesitate to say, that it would be impossible to cram the number on board which the Authorities of the Bra zils (by sanctioning these false descriptions of the vessels) give the masters permission to take; it is, therefore, to a certain extent, useess, although proving to the world that this Government, not content with allowing their subjects to carry on the odious DJ:lie, sanction such means of doin? so as aggrava.e the misery of the un fortunat,r victim:: thus forced away from their families and com.try. We skill make no fin ther remarks on t is painful sulsject, satisfied that such cruel deception as is clearly shown to b..r sanctioned by this Pow er, which i. thus adJiag further !romps to the ahead) , detestable slave trade, mill not be overlooked by our Government, who are, no doubt, in possei , ion of the facts from our gallant Commodore and his Officers. The French Slave Trade. has lately most considerably increased in the rivers Bonny and Old Calabar. Several new vessels have arrived, and many, laden with full cargoes of human victims, have left under the white flag, and manned by henchmen, although the capital embarked is orewibly Spanish. In (deer that our Readers may judge of the barbarity and want of feeling evinced by these subjects of an enlightened nation, which publicly disavows such horrible and infamous conduct, we de•ire to make koown, that Le Louis, commanded by one Oiseau, on completing her cargo of slaves in the Old Calabar, a few weeks since, without the slight est spark of humanity in him, thrust the whole of these unfortunate beings between decks (a height of only three feet) and closed the hatches for the night! When morning made its appeal mice, fitly eaf the poor sufferers had paid the debt of nature, owing to the confined, dis eased, and putrid atmosphere they were condemned to respire. The wretch coolly ordered the bodies of these miserable victims of his total want of human feeling to be thrown into the river, and immediately proceeded on shore to complete his execrable cargo by flesh purchases of his fellow-creatures. To detail all the information we have receive& relative to the enormities committed by these dealers in human flesh, who feel they are pro tected by the nation they claim, and the flag they hoist, would horrify any but slave-dealers, who seem natu rally callous to every feeling which ennobles mankind : suffice it to say, they are heart-rending, and would dis grace the most unenlightened savage.

The arrangement proposed by our Correspondent at Manchester is respectfully declined. The Fifth Part of the Twelfth Letter of VINDEI, on West India Slavery, is intended fur insertion in the STAR of Friday. We stated in the STAR of yeAerday, that the new Brazilian Loan was on the point of behig contilticted for. The original sum proposed to be raised by that Go- - - vernment in this jountry was 3,000,0001. sterling, of which 1,000 L 000(. only has been contracted for, the term, then offered being considered by the Commis sioners far below those which the credit and re sources of the country justified them in expecting. The remaining two millions have now been contracted for. This loan has attracted public attention, not only On account of its being so small a sum, but because Brazil has no public debt, and its independence seems fully established. The new Biazilian loan is expected to bear a high premium, and we understand the list is already filled. The applications for shares at - the Office of Mr . RO T HSCHILD, this morning, are immense , and su ffi cient, we unddrstand, to fill a list cf four times the amount of the Loan. A few days after it w publicly known that the BritistOovernment had determined to recognize the independence of the South American States of Mexico, Colombia, and Bueiros Ayres, some Of our contempo raries stated that France had determined on a similar recognition. Feeling confident that the assertion was at least premature, we did not notice it ; and from the manner in which the subject is noticed in the Paris Journals last received, it is evident that the measure has given uneasiness, to some of the French politicians at least, whatever may be the intention or the Cabinet of France. The Quotidienne states, that 4 6 the representatives of the Holy Alliance, at Paris, assembled on Sunday, and that a note had been sent to the Cabinet of St..laMes's." The Journal des Debals makes this act en the part of our Government, a new ground for attacking M. de VILLELE. The Minister is toll, that Mr. Secretary CANNING plays better than him ; that M. de VILLELR " foresaw that he adopted no system, and took no part in affairs abroad." The next passage is the more remarkable, and is en titled to notice on account of the erroneous assertion it contains. " When," says this Journalist, "we were triumphantinSpain,when our credit was strengthened by the rejection of the Law of the Reines, he took good care not to grasp a question in which you might so powerfully intervene; but when he saw how little you had profitted by the success of our army in Spain and by the gloiy of the Dauphin ; when he saw you recommence pour disastrous financial operations, he knew that the mo ment to act had art ived." Now, we clearly proved, in an article on this Sub ject in the STA It of the 4th inst. the intentions of the British Government on the subject of the South Ame rican States were known to all Europe nearly three yews agn—that the-Navigation Act, passed in the third year ut his present 14 r AJESTT ) was a de facto acknow ledgment of these Colonies, and gave to them the rights of. independent States. In DeceMber, 1822, we made known that we intended to send Consuls to those States, and that in all the diplo matic correspondence that preceded the invasion of Spain, the views of the British Government were clearly and openly declared. In the very last dispatch written by Mr Secretary CANNING to Sir C. STUART, previous to the invasion of Spain, there is the following passage: " With respect to the provinces in America which have thrown off their allegiance to th'e Crown of Spain, time and the course of events appear to have substantially decided their se paration from the mother country ; although the formal recognition of those Provinces as independent States by his Majesty may be hastened or retarded by various external circumstances, as well as by the more or less satisfactory progress in each State towards a regular and settled form of Governments. Spain has been long apprised of his Majesty's opinions upon this subject." Thus it will be seen that the British Minister did not speak of our recognition of the South American States as a doubtful event, but as one already determined upon, though the time when might be delayed or has tened by various circumstances ; and the Editor of the Journal des Debals may rest assured, that it was deli cacy to Spain that hat, in a great degree, retarded the recognition of those colonies, whose separation from her, time and the course of events had substantially de cided long ago. What a clamour would have been raised by the French Journalists, had we formally recognized the Smith American states, when France invaded Spain,we should then have been accused of taking advantage of her weakness. We did not do this, and yet the French ultra politicians are dissatisfied. It is, however, perhaps the best compliment to the policy of the British Go ment that they are so. All that we contend for is, that the whole conduct of our Cabinet, in the affair of the South American States, has been generous to Spain, honourable to our Govern meat, and open to all the world. Spanish Papers to the Ist inst. reached us this fore noon. The following are extracts:— • MADRID, DECEMBER so. The Gazette of this date contains an official article to the effect that, on the representation of Don Pedr o Moreno Altuzaro, Master of the English frigate Lord Londock (Lyndock), soliciting payment for the passage of some Spanish Officers who have emigrated from South America, the King has decided, by the advice of the Supreme Council of War, that all persons belonging to the army or navy, and the widows or others mentioned in the Royal Order of 26th May, 1818, and the Captains and Masters of merchantmen, to whom the Royal Trea sury owes the passage from America to the Peninsula, or from the pont of the parts of America in a state of insurrection, to either ports of the same countries which obey the Spanish Government of his Majesty, shall be paid the amount out of the Treasury, though they per formed these voyages during the existence of the Con stitution now abolished. All persons who shall hence. forth present themselves as emigrants, shall prove by documents that they were compelled to leave the ports they occupied, otherwise the soldier shall suffer the penalty to which he is liable by the law, and the Cap tain of the vessel shall not be indemnified for the pas sage of the person whom he had improperly brought with him. The Commander of the French squadron at Cadiz, has informed the Government of that City, by a letter of 13th December, that his Majesty's frigate the Ama zon, under his command, having received orders to go to Mahon, to convey several Spanish ships, which had performed quarantine there, eight of those- ships had sailed from that port, of which one went to Alicant, one with recruits to Carthage* two from the Havannah to Malaga, and four to Cadiz. The value of the con voy exceeds three millions. Their Majesties and the Royal Family, with their illustrious guests, Prince Maximilian and Princess Ameiia, of Saxony, went on the 27th to visit the Royal Museum of Natural History, in the street Alcala, where they were received by Don Francis Zea Bermu dez, Chief Secretary of State, who is at the head of that royal establishment. The Professors of Mineralogy and Zoology drew the attention of the august visitors ti the most remarkable among the innumerable curio sities in the Museum. They particularly admired a specimen of gold, and another of piatina, much larger than any other in Europe; a vast collection of exquisite marbles, from the several provinces of Spain; and, above all, the enormous skeleton of the megaterium, the only known specimen inithe world. THE KING. WINDSOR, JAN. U.-tliS MAJESTY, although in the enjoyment of good health, has not taken his regular ex ercise for the last.two days back. Yesterday afterooon, Count MUNSTER arrived at the Royal Lodge, and had an audience of his MaJesTY, when his MAJESTY was pleased to invite his Excel lency to dinner, and pass the night. This forenoon, his Excellency left the Royal Lodge, for his residence in town. The melancholy news of the death of Lord MOUNT CHARLES, eldest son of the Marquis of Convricuata, arrived at the Royal Lodge on Saturday afternoon. Sunday forenoon, the Marquis left the Royal Lodge, to meet and condole with the Marchioness and family, at his house in liamilon-place. Lord lk i ouvr-Cit A 'tuts had been in a declining state for the last three years back, when, by the advice of his Physicians, he went to Nice last autumn, where he lately died. FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

Mr. HORNE begged to call the attention of his Lord ship in this case, which arose out of an application made by the noble plaintiff, for an injunction to restrain the defendant from breaking certain grounds, for the pur pose of getting coals from beneath the same. On the hearing of the case, the injunction was granted by the Vice-Chancellor, which was afterwards appealed from by the defendant, to the Lord Chancellor, who was pleased to confirm the injunction. Some further pin ceedings then took place, and an action was brought by the Duke, who recovered a verdict ' with damages, thus settling the question as to the right of the Duke. It now remained for the Court to say, whether the injunc tion should be continued? The LORD CHANCELLOR—Let the injunction be made perpetual, and the defendant must pay the costs. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, JAN. it. THE FIDDLE AND CASE. Henry Fisher, late of the Auction Mart, auctioneer, who had been previously before the Court, came up for final hearing, when Mr. HEATH opposed his application on behalf of Mr. Johnson, of Southampton-street, Strand, that Gentleman having attended in popria persona, in all the previous stages of inquiry. The principal ground of complaint was, that the insolvent had, in the course of his capacity as auctioneer, received three violins, two cases, one gun, one guitar, and divers pictures, from Mr. Johnson, to sell to the best bidder beyond a stipulated price. fart were sold, part brought in, and it was alleged that the residue was purloined (to wit, a fiddle without a case) by the insolvent, and that he had fraudulently concealed the same, both frtim the owner and his creditors generally: After Mr. HEATH had examined the insolvent at un usual length, as to the mutilation of his books, and in reference to his disposal of the property entrusted to him by Mr. Johnson; as also an inquiry from Mr. J. himself, whose testimony was in direct opposition, _ _ Mr. MACDOWELL, proceeded to cross-examine both parties:—Mr. Johnson, pray, Sir, what are you? 1 am a general painter.—What did you ever paint—an angel or a red lion ? ( Laughter.) No, never.—Do you not carry on other businesses than that of an artist beg your pardon, I should have said, exercise any other profession.—l am a general dealer, and exchange guns and other instruments for paintings, and also clean pic tures.—An improver upon Sir Joshua Reynolds, 1 sup pose ? Yes, sir. (Laughter.) Mr. HEATU, in his address to the Court, was sur prised at the attempt that had been made to derogate from one of the most noble arts which adorned this country. Angels and Red Lions had been enquired about, but Moreland was a sign painter, and that fre quently. He (Mr. Heath) knew a recent instance, where a reclining tow, which had long graced a milk-shop, in Wardour-street, and which cost only 11. liad been sold for 6001. He considered that the insolvent had adopted this method on purpose to burlesque his client. Mr. MACDOWIILL, in reply, denied this. After which the Commissioner (HARRIS) observed, that the fiddle concern had lasted a long time, but he saw nothing con nected either with that or the case, which would war rant the detention of the insolvent, who was discharged. Preparations are making at Carlton Palace for the reception of his MAJESTY, who is expected in town this evening or to-morrow.

CORONERS INQUEST.—Yesterday afternoon, an in' quest was held at St. Andrew's Workhouse, on the b ,dY of Diana Brandon, a child three months old, who was supposed to have been murdered by its mother. The mother of the child was a servant to Mr. Phtrer, of No. 22„10hn-street.

The surgeon was of opinion that no vio lence had occasioned its death. The mother of the child was called into the room, and the account she gave of the child's death was, that being unable to sup port it, she was proceeding with it to her friends in Wiltshire; while on the coach the child cried, site pat it to her breast, and imagined it went to sleep ; but oil looking at it she found it was dead. She was uneasy lest she should be charged with murder; she put it int , ' the box, and did not knuw what to do, with it.--Toe Jury returned a verdict of Natural Death. 41 N I. ql el al ten( Cori Ares beer to d own Edii avoi adm A me cult is a burl Up( tors, 50M the " its tC " II fi Is ti ma Pal giv " t it c tha tail 1 71 IR
