By the arrival of the Sir Edward Banks steam packet from Hamburgh, in 50 hours, papers have been received at the North and South American Coffee House. One of them states, that authentic and afflicting accounts had been received, announcing that her Imperial Ma jesty the Empress EctrAise•rw ALEXIWENA, relict of the late Emperor of RUSSIA, died on the 16th of May, at Belew, while on her journey from Taganrog to Kaluga. —The late EMPRESS was sister to the Grand Duke of BADEN. and was bolo June 4411, 1779. In consequence of this event, the coronation of the Emperor NICHOLAS a ill, it is expected, be postponed two or three months. We have received French Papers of Friday and Sa turday, and the Etoik of yesterday, by express. The discussion of the Budget still continues in the Chamber of Deputies. General SEBASTIAN! made a long speech , on Thursday, in which he Warned the French Ministers' for interfering H ith the religions opinions of the army, which he s 4id was reduced too low. On Friday, Geceral MONTSIA RIB spoke on the same side. and took a view , of the several armies of Europe. France, he said, had only an army of two hundred thousand men, which was it sufficient to make war or maintain peace.— Several other Members spoke ; and General SZBAS• TIANI rose to address the Chamber, but was prevented by the PRISIDENT, who said he had already spoken twit•, and he could not permit him to speak a third time. The Etoile contains an article from Trieste, which states, on the authority of a letter from Arta of the 7th of May, that a part of the garrison of Missolonghi had forced its way through the Egyptian camp, and joined KARAIStAKI, in the mountains between Missolorighi and Salons. The same:letter states, that previous to this sortie, Noro BozTam, the veteran warrior of seventy years' old, addressed the garrison; and declared that he con sidered himself the cause of all their misfortunes, since it was by his advice that they had rejected all the offers of capitulation even under the guarantee of the English. lie said he was resolved to devote himself to death, and to remain to fire the mines after the garrison had quitted the place. A hundred brave men joined, and the Bishop blessed their resolution, which was carried into effect. A great number of Turks paribhed by the explosion. The Etoile of Saturday takes some pains to correct eertain misstatements Is the other Journals; and among the articles stigmatized as false, is a report of an application by FERDINAND for the aid of 25,000 French troops, on account of hogrilities in Portugal between the party of the Quint and the supporters of the Regency. It also contradicts the report of the death of the Xing of Nang, and &cum having reached Paris, but contends, that it was a pure invention, and that, far from continuing in danger, that Monarch's health was progressively improving. According to these Papers, the troops of the Pacoa are determined t oubtain possession of the whole Morea, not for the f urpose of tendering up to the donriaiers of the Sutzaai, but for the more in selligible.bne of retaining ft for the nth of their master, the Paola who is exceedingly anziosu to obtain a footing in Europe. By the arrival of the York, at Liverpool, New York Papers to-the Bth of May have reached us. From these papers it appears that Captain MERCHANT, of the brig Pharos, which arrived at Boston on tholst of May from Africa, reported that on the 6th December, whilst he was at Sierra Leone, which place be left on the 12th of January, a boat was sent on board from the English sloop of war REDWING, Captain CLEVER' NG. o ho forci• bly took from the Pharos two of her crew, notwithstand ing the remonstrances of Ca pt sin M ERCH A NT.The Editor of the Boston Patriot remarks strongly upon this act, and recapitulates various circumstances of aggression on the part of Captain CL atrial NO, when in command of the !mama, in 182'2, off the American coast. The probability, however, is, that Captain CLEveutNo's version of this transaction is very different from that of the Ametican Editor; and that the men he se;zA were two deserters from the British navy. It is stated on the authority of advices from Jamaica of the 6th of April, that two individuals named SAN CHEB and FRAtQUITO AGUERRO, who landed in Cuba for the purpose of raising a party in that Island in favour of the Colombians, had been apprehended and executed at Principe on the 7th of Mach. A GHEE RO, it is added, at the place of execution, behaved with pe culiar firmness, and suffered, without in the least com promising the cause he had advocated ; but SA NCH CZ, on the contrary, exhibited every symptom of fear, com municated such circumstances as he was acquainted with, of the intended movements, and added many ex aggerations; in consequence of which, four or five Spanish vessels of war had been ordered from the Ha vannah, to cruise on the coast. This forenoon we received Buenos Ayres Papers to the 11th ult. Their contents are interesting, as will be seen by the following extracts: FROM THE MESSAGERO ARGENTIN°. BUENOS AYRES, Fan. 7. Don Bernardino Rivadavla is elected President of the United Provinces of Rio de la Plata, by the Congress, by a great majority ; 35 members having voted in his favour, and only one for each of the other three candidates. Fitasuour 14.—This Number contains an extremely long account of the reception of the President Eliot in the Hotel of the Govern ment. The follow* ti the oath taken by him on thia occasion : " I, Bernardino Rivadavia, swear by GOD our Gann, and by the Holy Cove's, that I will faithfully-, and in conformity with the laws, MI the office of President of the Republic of the United Provinces of Rio de la Plata, which is conAded to me; that I wiU execute, and cause to be executed, the Constitution which shall be sanctionetty the Government of the Nation; that I will protect the Catholic Religion; that I will defend the integrity and inde pendence of the Nation." The President has appointed the following Ministers, conform ably to the law of the 6th inst. To the Ministry of the Interior, D. Julian Legundo de Aguero.—Foreign &Taira, Don Manuel Jose Garcia.—War and Marine General, Don Carlos Alvear.—Fularer, Don Salvador Maria Curl!. The latest accounts from Monte Video announce, that the Im perial Bag will not long remain flying there. The discontent of the inhabitants and the fears of the troops of that garrrison increase rapidly. General Lecor intended soon to return to Rio de Janeiro, iu the Empress frigate of 44 guns, and it is alarmed that the General appointed to succeed is destitute of the talents requildte to direct the operations for the defence of that place. We have alio received information respecting the state of Brazil, which Confirms our opinion that the war is curried on by the Sovereign, contrary to the general opinion of the people, who well know their own interest. Fes. 37.—Mr. Forbes, Charge D'Affaires, from the Uuited States of North America, has published, in a very luminous note, against the blockade of the torts and Coasts of Buenos Ayres, and of all those in the Banda Oriental occupied by the Buenos A yrra troops. Faa. 21.—We have received accounts from Monte Video, where the Liberal and Miscayo Corvettes, and a schooner, had arrived to repair, the brat being its a very bad condition. The Empress frigate, which was to convey General Lecor to Rio, is ordered to remain, being thought absolutely necessary to enable the Brazilian naval force to contend with our squadron.—lt is said, that by the unanimous confession of the Officers of the Liberal Corvette, that that vessel could not have hold out ten minu:es longer in the engagement on the 9th, but must have surrendered or gone to the bottom. The Captain of " The 29th August," 1 flied in the last action, was an Englishman of the name of &titlin, one of the hest officers in the squadron. When that vessel received thefire which killed the Captain, all the crew abandoned their guns and ran below. Feu. 24—The Louisa cutter, which was sent with a flag of truce to klonte Video, to carry to Admiral Lobo the Protest of Mr. Forbes, has returned. We know no more than that it brings an acknowledgment of the receipt of the note, and that Senor Lobo was to send the Protest to his Court. Masers 7.—The Congress has adopted the law, declaring Bueno4 Ayres the capital of the Republic. NIA acn 10.—Senor Dr. D. Mariano Secrano, who has filled the office of President of the Assembly of the Deputies of Upper Peru, has arrived in this capital. It is said that he is charged with an official commission to our Government. Communications of the 7th ult. arrived last night front Admiral Brown, by which it appears that by a dispatch from General La valleja, of the 3d. forces under Lieutenant Colonel Lapido, were ou their march, and would be to day opposite Colonia ; united with those that blockade it, and cog:sperating with the squadron, they will commence decisive operations against that place, from which there is every reason to expect a favorable result. Nothing important had occurred since the preceding comMunica• tion : the gun boats frequently fired on the place, and ;lid much injury to the enemy, who return their fire very faintly and without success. Our seamen anxiously look for the moment when the whole force on the lawd side would be united, being tired of wait ing for a naval action, which the 13raziliau squadron constantly contrived to avoid. Dutch and Brussels Papers to the 3J instant reached us this forenoon. The former contain some accounts from Batavia to the 11th of January, from which it appears that the rebellion in that Colony had not hten put down, though the state of affairs are represented as evidently improving. The steam boat built and fitted •at at Souaabaga, had made the voyage from that place to Batavia against wind and tide, in 96 MAIM WINDSOR, JUNE 4.—The KINo seached the Royal Lodge its tee Great Park at a late hour last night. His MAJESTY dined at Carlton Palace, and left the Metro.- polls some time afterwards, accompanied by the Lord Steward, in his travelling carriage, with out-riders. Yesterday afternoon his Royal Dighness the Duke of Yoax and slake arrived at Frogusore Lodge, the seat of his Royal Sister the Princess Ancrsra, where they dined. His Royal Highness remains let Frogmore during Ascot Heath Races and will entertain a select Party of distinguished personages. Saturday, the Duke of YORK transacted military bu siness with the Knits. Lord Foattoirta 4 Sir CH/taxes Loiw, and the SUAKIII of the late House of Commons, had audiences of his Idsaerre in the course of the slay. Yesterday afternoon, a half past two o'clock, a Ca binet Council was held at the Secretary of State's Office for Foreign Affairs, in Downing-street, which was attended by the Loan Cid A NCILLOI, the Duke of We:Aar:crow, the Earls of beetroot., HA RAOWST, WiSTMORZLAND, and klarmutsr, Mr. Secretary PURL,. Mr. Secretary CANNING, the Cnatcet.t.ot of the EXCHIQUZU, Via. count bies.eu.ix, Mr.Wrien, Mr. HUMEISSON, and Lord Bents-. FATAL DUEL.—At an early hour yesterday morning an affair of honour took place, in the county of Waterford, between two Gentlemen of this neighbourhood, who had previously been bound over to keep the peace in this county. The parties were florin. Corms., Esq. of Maret, attended by Lieutenant Beaman; and Captain DAUNT, of Hilcaskin, attended by WILLIAM ATKIN, Esq. The parties exchanged three shots each, the last of which proved fatal to Captain DAUNT, having received his adversary's ball in the forehead, which instantly deprived him of life. The circum stance which led to this unfortunate event, we understand; took place at a party given at a friend's house, at which both Gentlemen met ; and some expression being made use of by Captain D. reflect ing on the honour of the other Gentleman, which he overheard, and which on Captain D. being called on for an explanation, in conse quence of some previous transaction between them that bad not been satisfactorily arranged, he was not then disposed to give.— Cork Constitution efun4 1. MR: - BUCKINGH A NI. Saturday, a public Meeting was held at the Thatched house Tavern, St. James's -street, the object of _which was to raise a subscription to relieve (in some measure) Mr. Buckingham from the distress which has been brought upon him by the-suppression of his Paper, the Calcutta Journal, by the Indian Government. Lord Joun RUSSELL, on taking the Chair; shortly addressed the meeting. He stated, that having atten tively listened to all the evidence which had been given before the Committe recently appointed by the House of Comm.nts, t ) ilgttire into Mr. Buckingham's case, the opinion which lie previously entertained of the hat dships suffered- by that Gentleman had been thereby strengthened. The conduct of Mr. Buckingham, s hich had drawn upon him the enmity of the Indian Govern ment, so far from teflecting any discredit upon him, was highly praiseworthy, and agreeable to those ex amples of freedom which we are accustomed to admire and hold up as worthy of imitation by others. Mr. Buckingh im's c tse was one-which peculiarly called for the sympathy of the people of this country, and that Gentleman had a right to expect support limn all who were placed in a more fortunate situation than himself. It was his deliberate opinion that there was nothing in any one of il, articl, , s written by M. Buckingham, and objected to by the Indian Government, which could reflect the slightest stain on his character. Mr. I). KINNAIRD stated, that Mr. Buckingham was! at present involved in great embarrassments, owing to the suppression of the Calcutta Journal, from which he had expected to derive an income of 5,0001. a year, upon a fair valuation of the property. Having had personal intercourse with Mr. Buckingham from the moment of his arrival in England, he could undertake to say, that a more honourable or upright individual did not exist. The Hon. Gentleman then moved " that a public subscription be o2ened for the relief of Mr. Buckingham." Mr. HUME seconded the motion, which he said would afford the public an opportunity of expressing the indig nation which was so generally felt against the despotic conduct of the Indian Government towards Mr. Buck• ingham.—The resolution was cart ied. After some observations by Mr. HILL, Sir C. Finites, and Sir J. Doris a Committee was appointed for manning the subscription, and the meeting, which was highly respectable, separted. FATAL ACCIDENT AT A COLLIERY. FURTHER PARTICULARS. Tuesday morning, about three o'clock, as briefly stated in the STAG of Saturday, one of the most dreadful explosions of fire-damp occurred at Stella Colliery, in the county of Durham. On the cl.ty previous to the explosion, the Colliery had not been at work, and in the meantime an immense body of inflammable gas must have accu mulated ; for as soon as the men descended to their work on Tues day, on some of the lights being kindled, the inflammable air imme diately ignited, and thus in one ntoment caused a scene of death and desolation almost indescribable. The sound of the explosion was beard to a great distance. Corers, full of coals, were propelled with great velocity from the bottom of the pit to a considerable height in the afr ; and all the brattices in the colliery were sent forth in the same destructive manner. Several horses were thrown to the top of the shaft, and some men In the act of descending at the time the explosion took place, were, by the force of the concussion, cast from a considerable depth up to the surface, and sustained much injury, though none of their lives are despaired of; but so great hro been the calamity, only flee men belonging to the colliery have escaped unhurt. The total number of sufferers, men and boys, is not known with precision, but ft Is supposed to be about forty, although all the bodies have pot been discovered. The machinery within the range of the explosion was all blown to atoms. The colliery is the property of Messrs. George Dunn and Sons, of Newcastle. A • Coroner's Inquest sat on Friday, and returned a verdict of Accidental Death, and in the afternoon the bodies of twenty-seven of the poor sufferers were interred in Royston Church-yard. LATE MURDER NEAR BEDALE. On the 26th ult. the Coroner and Jury met pursuant to adjourn ment, and the whole of the ev;dence having been taken, was sworn to by the several witnesses in the presence of Leonard Wilkinson, the person suspected as the perpetrator of the dreadful act. The prisoner was removed to an adjoining room, and he soon afterwards dropped down in a state of perfect insensibilty, in which he re mained for a considerable time. On his recovery he made the fol lowing confession :•—" That on the 19th ultimo, at Leyburn, he met an Irishman called William, but whose surname he did not know, who told him that he knew Nicholas Carter had received a good deal of money, and that if he (the prisoner) would go with him, they would rob him. That the prisoner replied, he would have nothing to do with it; but that if he (William) would rob him, the prisoner would meet him afterwards at Rogan chisrch, about half a mile from the place where the mut der was committed. That they then separated, tilt prisoner going one way, and William through Constable Burton,' to the place where the murder was committed. That William came to the prisoner about five o'clock at Fingall church and told him that be had not killed Carter, but nearly killed Wm with a rail, and taken his money, which consisted of three five pound notes, eleven one pound notes, a draft, a half sovereign, and some silver. That William gave h im the 11 one pound notes, the half sovereign, and the sliver, and they parted." The Coroner having wonted up the evicknee to the Jury, they immediately returned a verdict of wilful murder against Leonard Wilkinson, and he was on Saturday last safely lodged In York Castle, by virtue of the Coroner's warrant. On his way to York the prisoner said to the constable " I may as well tell you where the money is concealed." He then gave such information as enabled the constable, on a minute search, to find the purse belonging to the unfortunate deceased, which contained nine five-pound notes of the bank of Messrs. Hutton and Co. it was concealed in a ditch, near Fingal), and covered up with moss'and grass. The draft has not been found, and the amount of the money of which the deceased was robbed, including the draft, would be about 81/. It is an extraordinary fact, that at the time when the funeral of the deceased was expected to arrive at Bedale Church, Wilkinson was drinking at a public-house immediately adjoining, dressed in the same clothes as he wore on the day of the murder ; it is pre. named that this was done in order that he might mete suspected. The following is a more detailed account of the way in which the Nl , Keands were apprehended : A butcher residing at Kirby Steven, having got up about five o'clock in the morning, saw, passing his house, two strangers, who appeared to have walked a great distance, as they were evidently fatigued and foot-sore; and on that account he took More notice .of their per sons than he would otherwise 'have done. - About two hours afterwards he went to a bWier's shop, and whilst he was there, the constable. of Kirby .Steven came in with a hand bill which had been sent from Manchester, containing a description of the persons of the Keands, which he read- to the people in the barber's shop. On hearing it, the butcher immediately said that it cones ponded exactly' with the men he . had seen pasiing his house about art hour before ; and as those persons ap peared to have come a long way, he had no doubt they Were the mein The constable, and a publican, .a very stout and resolute man, set out on horseback in pursuit of them, about three hours after they passed the butcher's shop. After they had gone some miles, the horse which the publican rode became on ible to preceed ; and he ex changed horses with the constable, who did not appear quite co anxious to come in contact with the men. The publican pushed on, and when he got within about three miles of Appleby, saw them before him on the road, Alexander, the taller, walking first, and Michael about fifty yards behind hints After scrutinising their persons a little, and satisfying himself that they answered the description in the hand-bill, he rode forward to the next public. house, which was at a short distance, where he .dismounted, and waited the coming of Alexander, whom he immediately accosted, " You seem to han walked a long way, Sir. Will you take a glass of ale Alexander gladly accepted the offer, and they vot.,. together into the house, where the publican immediate;, seized him and gave hiin into the custody of t. men who. were there,.-and whom he had previous,/ apprised of his intentions.• Ile then went out I. wait for Michael ; but he had scarcely got outside the door when he heard the two men in whole custo ly he had left Alexander, exclaim—" He's off; he's off!' The publican immediately turned roar,,:, when he met Alexander coming out of the donr, and instantly felled him to the ground with a bloc of his fist; and fortunate it was for himself, that he wAs so prompt and decisive; for Alexander bad, at that time, a loaded pistol in his pocket ; and there i; little dnubt that he would have used it it he had had a:, opportunity. As soon ai he was secured a second tune, and again handed over to the men with an injunctie l to be more careful of him, the publican again went sr.:, to wait for Mich .el, who ca rne up immediately. Wi.!l him the publican did not make use of any stratage:;;, but seized him at once by the collar; Michael, however, made a desperate.resistancr. They were on the grouud together several times ; but the publican at leng,Vi merpowered him. The prisoncis were se.isched,,iu: secured by tying them together with a role; arid 'A eie then conveyed in a chaise to Appleby, where they %Tie examined, as stated in Sir Philip Musgrave's letter. When brought before the Magistrates, and asked what they had to say respecting the ercumstance; suspicion which attached to them, Alexander replizl that he was innocent. He added that his name u.s Matthew Kirk, and that he was more than 30 years ti age. As to his.companion, he observed, he would an swer for himself when called upon to do so. Michael said that his name was James Carson, and that ha was innocent of the charge. They were then sent to piison and confined separately until Tuesday eve, ing, when they weir put into the same apartment; and very soon afterwards a quarrel arose bet Ween them, and they fought ; but nobody heard the grounds of dispute. When Mr. Lavender and his p .rty arrived at Appleby, they found Sir Philip Musgrave and William Atkinson, Esq. waiting their art ival at the King's !lead, and they immediately proceeded to the Court-house. When the prisoners were brought up, they appeared perfectly firm and composed; but when Blears was called in, their demeanour was very perceptibly changed. They bo li appealed much agitated, aad especially Michael, who trembled excessively, and could scarcely support him self. Alexander was more firm, but seemed a good deal dismayed. Blears was for some time viulen.ly agit ted, and could scarcely speak. When asked if he knew Cie prisoners, be said, " Certainly Ido ; they are the m• n who were at my house on the night of the murder; but that gentleman (pointing to Michael) has got his whiskers shaved." In fact, both prisoners had shaved .off their whiskers, which, being very full and black be , fore, were rather remarkable. Neither of the prisoners said a syllable in answer to the evidence of Blears. The necessary depositions were then taken in writing, and the Coroner's warrant being endorsed by the Magis trates, permitting its execution in Westmoreland, the prisons rs were delivered into the charge of Cheadle, the constable of Barton. On examining their persons, their feet were found to be covered with blisters, and their shoes worn out with the long walk. Theyhad- no money tshatcv?r upon them ; and, according to their own account, had hardly tasted food for some time before their apprehension. Indeed, in the gaol at Appleby, they appear to have had rather short commons, and seemed to be nearly famished when delivered to the constables; and on their arrival at Kirby Stephen, some bread and meat was given them, which they devoured with great avidity, and drank a pint of ale. Up to this time they had been exceedingly depressed, but they now revived a little; and, for the first time, entered into conversation with the constables. They desired Mr. Lavender to send their clothes to Lancaster, and to deliver their books of accounts to a Mr. Hancock, who, it appears, has given security !or them to the amount of 4001. or 5001. Alexander also desired hiM to give the furniture in the house to his mother. As the coach passed through the different towns and villages on the road to Lancaster, a strong feeling of indignation and abhorrence was manifested towards the prisoners by the people assembled to see them pass.— ' When they arrived at • Lancaster, between 10 and 11 o'clock in the evening, they found the market-place full of people, who were waiting the arrival of the coach, and who, on its arrival, broke out into the most un governable fury. They pressed on the prisoners on every siie, threatening them with death ; and had it not been for the exertions of Mr. Norreys and Mr. Lavtnder, would have torn them to pieces. It was with the greatest difficulty that they got safely through the streets to the Castle gates. Tire prisoners were greatly alarmed at this manifestation of feeling, and clung for protection to the constables. They ap?eared extremely thankful when they entered the Castle, and the gates closed against their merciless pursuers. The Poem on Greece, written by Mr. Secretary CANNIWG while at gton School, has been translated into German. and is sold for the benefit of the Greeks. A private letter from Rome states that InnAlio!

Saturday, the Privy Council again heard arguments in the case of Mr. Doves appeal. No decision has been given. Saturday evening, the van of Mr. Martin, of Somer set-street, Whitechapel, was ran away with, owing to the horse taking fright at the sound of the horn of the guard of the Norwich mail. The horse galloped cn the pavement, crowded with people marketing, numbers of whom were thrown down, many hurt, and one woman had her-leg broken and ancle dislocated. The animal was at length stopped from doing farilier mischief. Letters from Naples of the 20th ult. are entirely silen as to the rumoured death of the King of the Two Smuts.
