' Native accounts (tom Cinch, which have reached Bombay in four days by sea, mention that a band of marauders had succeeded in plundering the village of Blieemasser, within eight miles of Anjar. They also state that Goof jee, Chief of Nurra, and one of the Rao's bayaud, had fled to Scind, where he bad collected about a thousand followers, whom it is sappoatd he would employ in plundering excursions into the Cutch territories.. The first fall of rain had been abundant ; but a second supply was much wanted, without which, the natiott.appeased , to think, a total failure of the -crops would vale p4ace. SEPT. 12.—We understand that his Majesty's 6th Regiment, the flank companies of the 2d European Re giment, a detach -nen' . of -Artillery, and the $J Regi ment of Native Infantty, will embark for Cutch in the course of nest week. The ships taken up to convey the troops to th• it destina►tion ;ye, the Simpson, Glotiozo, and Flo. a. The Honourable Company's cm uizer Am herst, and the Palinurus, will also proceed to Mandavie on this occasion. The private intelligence received goes more into detail respecting this new and unexpected watfart, and is also six days later than the Bombay Newspapers. Extract of a letter from Bombay, dated the 20th of SeFtember s—" A large Pindarree force has invaded Cutch, and all the ships that could be quickly procured by the Government of Bombay have beets taken up to convey troops, for the porposoof at once repelling the invaders." There are other letters, dated the 19th and 20th of September. Their contents are nearly all to the same effect, brit they are generally gloomy on the " war in tie north, btatittg that they are without any adequate force to meet the invaders, as all the troops which were eisrossble had been sent to join the invading army in the l•urmcse territory. Cutch is not um'er the government, but under the protection of the Company. It is the westernmost point of -the Territories over vihich our influence extends, so ,lat the extremity of (stir dominions is directly opposite to tl'at where the cause of the Burmese war arose. JAMAICA. In tl•e SrAn of yesterday we gave an analysis of the debate in the A.sensbly rd Jamaica nth- Slave Evi nonce_ Bill. %% Inch was rejected, the fallowing Speech,which was delivered by the Duke of MAN• c: es: ca on the prorogation of the Legislature on the tt of December, shews with what feelings this unex pezted obstinacy is regarded: Gent!enten ridge Council, Mr. F;va.kr, and Ger:amen e au, Amemely, " I have passed all the Bills which have been presented to me, aid I am happy to acknowledge your ready attention to the two rportant measures which I submitted to your consideration at the opening of this Session. I now grant you a recess. Mr. Xpeaker and Gentlemen of the " Another year has been allowed to pass away without any effec tual meature having been adopted for the improvement of the con dition ef the slaves. It does net become me to anticipate what the result may be of the great disappointment his Majesty's ()ovens- Tient will experience, when they learn that the reiterated represca trions which have been made to you, to do what your own interest all,- for as much as a due tepid for those who look up to you for ; • c:ccti .n and relief, have totally failed. In obeying the instruc tions which I have received, I earnestly pressed upon your consi tie; anon the necessity of something, it not to disarm your enc. tuiti, still to satisfy triesde, and more than all, to mariner Parka molt. that the urgent representations of his Majesty's Government had not been entirely disregarded. I return you my best thanks for the supplies which you have raised for the public service.

Even ti.e lIOLT FATHER has deserted him, as appears by a very remarkable rescript from his Holiness, dated 29th June last, a +dres.e.d to his beloved son GUADALOUPI VICTORIA, in answer, as it would appear, to a letter dated on the 50th October, 1824, which the latter had forwarded to the Sove, eign Pontiff. on the .state of the Mexican Chu: eh, accom panied with many corroborative documents. To understand this correspotideace, the Reader must revert .to the famous encyclic letter addressed by the POPE to the Bishops and Clergy of Mex:co, in saltier; he had exhorted them to remain cobstant to their elle. giance to FERDIriAND, and thus gave another proof, , in addition to the ten thousand testimonies of former times, that the See of Rome is constanly on the alert to interfere in the temporal affairs of Nations; whenever the cause of Region affords it" decent pretext. This encyclic letter was last year published, by GUADALOUPE Vie - roma, as head of the Government of Mexico, with unsp sting comments on the pretensions of the Holy Father to disturb the internal tranquillity of inde pendent Nations, under the mask of Religion. The measure was bold and courageous, as it was novel in countries where the Roman Catholic Religiln prevails But the well known piety of General Vrevoara, and his pre-eminent and exemplary attachment to the cere monies of the Itomish Church, which, mote than any other of his more valuable qualities, had rendered him the idol of the people, and originally secured his supre macy in the Government, cansed the adoption of such a measure to be less hazardous 'in his, than. perhaps, it would have been in any other hands The conclave had doubtless rind inform stiouthat tht authority of the Chair of St. Peter was rapidly dimi nishing in the estimati in of the Mexican population, and that the POPE himself was proved, in regard to this instance of interference in temporal affairs, to have been decidedly in the, wrong, notwithstanding his usual aur i bute of infallibility. The letter of the rniSIDLNT, of 30th Oct. 1824, appears also to have been in the nature of a strong remonstrance. With that dexterous suppleness, which has ever been inherent to thePontificalCouncilsond which has always adapted itself to times and circumstan ces, his Holiness now turns round to his dear son and says, " Our peculiar character, and the dignity to which, " without the least merit, we were raised, exact of us " that we interfere not with anything unconnected with "the Church." This is mighty good. He adds (whatl is much more important)—" Your .constancy in the, " Catholic Faith, and your veneration for the Apostolic " Chair, se strongly recommend you to us, that we "have with great reason considered that we ought to " suenshcr you with the sou whom we most love in Jaws " CHRIST." That is, we acknowledge in your person, by this title which we apply to Sovereign Princes, the Independence of the Mexican Republic. Pi obably the public recognition of that Independence by England, had no small share in promoting this important measure; at all events, the sovereignty of Mexico ix now finally sealed And con summated by the recognition of that Power on the friendship of which, hf all alters, it most coricerdi the Internal tranquillity of - the oition to have a strong hold. The pride- and stupid obstinacy of the inflexible man under whose domination the gallant people of one of the fairest portions of Europe are doomed to remain for a season, may still itsdece him to hold out, and de prive the subjects who are thus afflicted with his mis rule, of the benefits resulting to them from friendly intercourse with a kindred people. This concerns not Mexico, nor is it of the smallest importance to any other nation. She has broken the last fragment of her chains, and now emerges from shori,h subjection into the glorious rank of a mighty empire, and takes her dignified place among the independent Sovereignties of the world. This forenoon we teceived the Allgemeine Zeitung, and Frankfort Papers to the Ist inst. They contain some intelligence from St Petersburg!), but it is neither of a late date nor interesting. Accounts from Munich state, that Prince WRLDIZ WAS to set out for St. Petersburg!), to congraturate the Emperor NICHOLAS On his accession t the throne. The f. Mowing are extraats: BRUNSWICK, JANUARY 25. Our brave troops have lately undergone a great change in their external appearance. The gloomy black uniforms have disappeared. The corps of the brave Frederick William took ample vengeance in Spain and at Waterloo. The dark spirit is banished, and life and prosperity have returned with the peace, which was so impatiently longed for. Only one battalion, under the command of the brave Majlr Normann, retains, in eteraam memoriam, the black uniform, with the silver emblems of death on their shakos, which obtained the corps, in Spain and Sicily, the name of Regiment° della Marie. All the other troops, viz. the battalion of the Guards, the • first and second Regiments, wear now, with some slight variations, the Prussian uniform ; only the Guards have the immense fur caps of the Hun garian grenadiers, and our artillery the helmets of the Bavarian infantry, which are both soldierlike and hand some. But above all, the newly raised Hussars of the Guard ate distinguished, who, in splendour and ele gance, may be compared with any corps of the kind in Europe. qr. PF.TERSBUR 0 1-I,Tmt. 13. You may believe without restriction what the Journal dt Sl. Pderrbargh contains. I tell you this, because people in genend are not disposed to attach much credit to the news contained in half-official journals. The orders to the army are more detailed, but not less true: there is, however, no trantlation of them at present, and perhaps will not be. According to the positive declara tion of our new Emperor, we may henceforward expect more communications from the Government to the public than we have hitherto been accustomed to. His MAjesty chews great activity, mildness combined with ftrmitess, and very comprehensive views. All that approach the Monarch are full of his praise. On several occasions he has spoken in such a manner, that tbose who heard him sere filled with delight and astonishment. If the accounts from St. Petersburgh can be relied on, the Emperor Nicnotas seems rather to be seated on a barrel of gunpowder than reclining on a bed of ruses; it, however, remains to be seen whether the re volt lif the regiment in Sr. Petersburgh, and that is Volhinia, an account of which we gave yesterday, are momentary ebullitions, or part of a systematic plait. 'That a military despotism, like that of littssia, shoaid generate some discontent does not seem improbable, but we are still by no means convinced that in the two instances to which we have referred, the change in*.the succession may not have been the leading cause of disobedience. It is stated in one account. that in the revolt of fqOURAVIIFF, seven hundred of the insurgents had been taken prisoners. after the square they had formed had been broken by a discharge of grape shot and a charge of cavalry. MouLtirtanr, as we stated, was cilarg , cl with having conceived designs against the life of the late EMPRROR ; and a Morning Paper, which asserts that ALEXANDER was really assassinated, drags in the Russian Order of the Day as a proof that the crime was perpetrated, whereas it only states that the plot was discovered, as will be seen by the terms in which it is mentioned in the original. The Etoile states, Colonel MOUR AVIEFF was one of the men, who " depuis plusiairs anise •s deja, nourrissaient d'affieuses intentions centre le gouvernement, et qui avaient nr tame coop rhoirible projet d'attenter aux jours de feu l'Empereur Alexandre, de glorieuse memoirs. Ala decouverte de cette frame paricide l'arrestation de MounatviEFF avait ete ordonne.'' In addition to the Russian a. counts given yesterday, we subjoin the fol lowing extract from a private letter, dated " Sr. FIMMISUIMINT, JAR. 17. " It appears that the occurrences which took place os the aeon. sion of offering the oath of allegiance to Nacsocas to the military, originated in a plot far snore dangerous than we had been led to suppose. According to this account, the death of Amuse= only occasioned a premature explosion of what bad bees in coalempla tioe for twelve years. The attempt to establish a Constitution war' to have commenced by murdering the whole Imperial family, on the letb of next month! on which day, every member of the family makes a point of attending at the chapel is the castle, where a religious ceremony takes place in memory of Pats.. The Im perial victims were to have been shut up lithe chapel, and there murdered; the castle was then to have been seized, ap the foreigners to have been massacred, and the town given up sidle soldiers, to be pillaged, for three days. 4 ; Tli; whole cosspiracy, it was conjectured, had been laid open, and it was said to be the intention of the Emperor to publish all the papers and other proofs Muds Goveraniont were in posseuioa et" The grand Catholic. Dinner, which has been so long in preparttien, took place on Thursday, in Dawbon- L street, Dublin, and ii said, by the Editor Of the' Averting Post. to be by far the most stittiptuottipnblic (Unite ever witnessed. Among the company present were----L the Earls of PORTARLINGTON, 'Arrant, and BedTiiin Lords CLONCCIRRY and Iltvaasuaut; Sit M. Bosseli- VILLE, M.P. Sir C. MOLYNCUX, Bart. Sir C. MoacAN, Colonel WHITE, M.P. Colonel Catmint, M.P. Mr. LA* Touette, M.P. Mr. W. W. Becalm M.P. the nosh Colonel BUTLER, and all the Catholic Noblemen, Bea ronets, and Gentlemen now in Ireland. Viscodnt Goamansroura was in the Chair, and Lnrd ICILLeed Vice-President. The usual toasts, which were announced by Mr. O'Cossitu., were drank with the accustomed honours. The galleries were graced with the presence of a great number of Ladies. Las! night, Mr. Secretary PEEL laid before the House of Commons, copies of the treaties with France, the Colombian Republic, and the Hanseatic Cities. The first of these will be found in another page; the treaty with Colombia was published in the STAR on the 30th of June last, and that wi , h the Hanseatic Towns appeared in the STAR of the 23,1 of December last.— The leading feature of all those Treaties is reciprrcity i which forms the basis of our foreign policy, and must ultimately benefit every State that follows our example. Accounts from Madrid, of the 24th January, state, the KING was to preside in person the nest day at the Council of State, as the Notes delivered by the Foreign Powers, relative to South America, caused him to be present at the important discussion on that subject. A great change has taken place in the Council since the surrender of St. Juan d'Ulloa, and some of the mern bers are for acknowledging the independence of South America. It appears that the augmentation of the price of bread and meat in that capital has caused disccrnteat among the populace: the Police have been on the alert for several days, there being great fears that cam motions will take place. The Duchess of Sr. Lau has arrived at Rome, with her son, Louts N*potrox. Thursday, the hearing of Appeals in the House of Lords will commence, according to existing arrangements. - • CHORAL FUND.--The AnnisAl Concert for the benefit of this admirable Institution was given last night, at the English Opera-house, under the usual high Patronage. The industrious Proprietors of the Adolph' Theatre, Team' and Yam, have agreed with Mr. Hear to perform his new Entertainment twice a week during Lent. ROYAL ACADEMY OP MITMC.—The first monthly Concert of this Institution for the year, was performed at their Concert Room, in Tenterden-street, Hanover-square, on Saturday last, and was attended by his Grace the Duke of Davonsinan, Lord BIMOURIIISH, Sir ANDREW BARNUM, Sir GROSS' CUILII, and a considerable number of the hold ton, subscribets to tlik• Institution. One of the fashionable Club Houses in St. James's street has recently established a smoking rums, to which the wain hen are admitted they eight o'clock in the evening, by paying a fine of sixpence each. Mr. MORIER, who went out to Mexico on a mission, has returned in his Majesty's ship VIGILANT, having left Mexico on the 16th, a d Alvarado on the 22d of December. The letters from Mexico, which are of the date of the 16th December, state, that the circulation of the apostolical benediction on the Mexican nation, has had a most visible effect on the Clergy, who now. seeing their communication with their. spiritual head renewed, are laying aside all thought of any return to Spanish authority, and ate rapidly yielding to the new order of things. Colonel GURRZA. now in Lyndon, has been informed by his afflicted family, that his btOther, a Lieutenant of Cavalry, has been beheaded and quartered at PAM. , peluna, and that one of his quarters has been sent to be hung up in his native town of Olite. Such, even, was the refined cruelty of his executioners, that this muti lated relic of her son was ordered to be exposed before the house, and in view of his mother. The faMily of Ginhilt, to which this martyr of the Constitution be longed, distinguished himself in supporting the cause of FARDINAND during the war of independence. No less than seven of them entered guerilla parties in Navarre. Some of them lost their lives in fighting for FARMHAND against the French, and the rest have been murdered or dispersed in the war of freedom and con stitutional monarchy against the French and the ab solute Kirg. The Brussels Paper of the lst inst. informs us that M. HOCHEPIaD LaaPenT,Consul of his Britannic MAJESTI at Antwerp, has published a Notice, declaring that the two Treaties, the one entitled a Treaty of Commerce, the other a Treaty for the Abolition of the Slave Trade in the Empire of Brazil, which have been made public by the Brazilian Journals, will not receive the ratification of his Britannic Majesty without important modification.:' The following is an extract of a letter, dated Guaya quil, October SI r—" The English steam-boat Zelica, Captain Gibbs, on her passage from this to Chorillos,. met with a melancholy accident off Guarmay, ow the 10th of October. By a letter from one of the passen gers. it appears that himself and four others were pir shore, when to their great surprise they saw a tremen dous explosion on board the vessel. Those on shore im mediately went on board,, when they learnt that a Mr. Metrovich, the owner of the vessel, had set fire to the . magazine, with a cruel intention of destroying thelives of every one on board. When they reached the vessel, they found five of their fellow-passengers, the Captain, and Mr. Metrovich, dead, one missing, • and three wounded. The machinery of the vessel, it appear* was not injured, neither was the vessel making any water. As yet, nothing further has transpired that can lead to any cause for such a rash act on the part of the rimier:* Tuesday last the house of John Walker, _at Kilbefire, in the barony of Carbery, in the county of Kildare, OW of the estate of F. Hamilton, Esq. was wilfully set on - fire, and burnt to the ground. The inmates, who were in bed, were dreadfully scorched, and narrowly escaped, but in a state of nudity. A man of Walker's was also much burnt. The only cause assigned is, that Walker had been appointed herd by Mr. Hamilton , to superintend a farm recently surrendered by thetenant, who owed 1881. from which Mr. Hamilton released him on surrendering. Mr. C. W. whose great height renders him very remarkable in the streets of Loudon, was lately met in •Fleet -street, during the frost, by a Gentleman nearly as All as himself. Struck with the appearance of each nher, they entered into conversation, and were speaking Nhen interrupted by a ragged urchin of the sister Isle.
