A letter from Buenos Ayres, dated the 7th of July, states, that intelligence had arrived from Valparaiso, announcing that the blockade of the coasts of Peru by Lord Cochrane had been declared by Sir Thomas Hardy not to be in conformity with the law regu lating similar operations, and that therefore it could not be recognized by the• British 'squadron. This de claration of Sir Thomas Hardy is in the form of a •erbal communication, made to a deputation of Bri tish Merchants at Valparaiso, on-board his Majesty's ship Creole. He stated totem— lat. That he had just retained from 'Callao, where be bad zone in the hope of redressing were' grievances, which the mas ters of vessels, and several other individitals, had sustained from the Commanders in Chief and Captains 9f s h e Bleckaaini &Ps dron before Callao, not only in the unjust detention of several vessels, but in the • wiwarrantable poster- assumed by the Chili squadron, in preashig seamen of said detained vessels, and other British subjects; which individuals, on being demanded by Cap tain Spencer personally, and Sir Thomas Hardy by letter, were refused by the Captain of the O'Higginsto be given up ; by which act insulting the Officers of his Majesty and the British flag. " 2d. That the declaration of blockade by the Chili etreem tient in August last comprehends and includes the whole coast of Peru ; and as the Chili squadron have only vessels to blockade ten or twelve leagues of said coast, their persisting to declare the whole under blockade vitiates their declaration : therefore he is determined not to allow that any blockade ever existed." By the last intelligence from Peru, Lord Cochrane had taken possession of Arica, where he had captured and detained several Spanish and English vessels. On the 30th April General San Martin embarked at Huacho, with about 1000 of his army, on an expe dition, the object of which was supposed to be Panama.

We are happy to announce the safe return of his - MAJESTY to the shores of Old-England. The fol 'lowing is an extract of a letter received from the agent to Lloyd's at Milford, dated atone o'clock on Sunday afternoon; " The aquadrau, with the Kam op board, all well; has just put b here." The particulars of his Ktsr.sris progress, down to his final departure from Ireland, will be found in ,our subsequent columns. Letters have been received in town frbm Odessa, of the same date as the accounts which we published yesterday from the French Papers, namely, the 14th of August, the . day after the arrival there of Baron SIROGONOFf. It appears that on his Excellency's leaving Bujukdere, the usual honours were paid to him by the Turkish Authorities; and the Janissaries and populace who witnessed his departure, are said , to have conducted themselves in the' most respectful manner. Previously to his quitting Constantinople, the Porte had given orders, that the passage of the Dardanelles should be opened, and. that the naviga tion should be free to vessels laden with corn. These orders had excited great satisfaction at Odessa'; and, as the detention of the Russian corn vessels was the first cause of complaint, it was reasonably expected that the chief obstacle to an accommodation had' been thus removed. We have also seen letters from St. Petersbtirgh, three days later in date than those received from Odessa. They are from respectable sources, and are Of a pacific character. The fleet which had sailed from Cronstadt, under the orders of Admiral CROWN, and which at the time gave rise to a great deal of speculation, came to an anshor before Revel on the Ist of August. It was expected to return to Cron stadt before the end of that month. When it first sailed, it Ass stated with confidence that the Medi terranean was its destination; and that it was to co operate with the Russian armies in the event of hosti lities. This fine speculation, like many others of the same stamp with which the Public have been so long amused, is thus overturned. The Paris Papers of Saturday arrived this fore noon, but are quite barren of news. Five per Cents. Friday, 85 fr. 65 e. Ills Grace the Duke of . MoNraosa has resigned the Lord Lieutenancy of Stirlingshire, together with that of Dumbartonshire. _ Lord DERIMURST has lately purchased a very su perior vessel, which, next year, he means, under his own inspection, to fit up as a yacht. Last week, the Duke of Buccr.zuom, passing through Bothwell with his brother and sister, threw a ten pound note from the carriage window to the children who were cheering the party as they passed. The Irish subscription for a National Testimonial amounted on the 7th inst. to £6716.. • THE KING. DUBLIN, SATURDAY, SEPTESIBER HIS MAJESTY'S LETTER. A Meeting of Gentlemen, of all sects, was held on Friday, at D'Aact's, when his MAJESTY'S Letter to the LORD Luctrritzterr was read by the Chairman, DANIEL O'CoNNELL, Esq. amid the most enthusiastic expressions of gratitude. Mr. Exz&s M , DouxELL, after expatiating for a considerable time, and with great eloquence, on the _ _ value and importance of his Majesty's gracious com munication, moved the following Resolutions: 'Resolved, That the paternal solicitude and benevolence mani fested In this most gracious communication of our beloved So- vertigo towards all classes and descriptions of his Irish subjects, merits our enthusiastic gratitude and admiration. That it is most desirable that this gratifying expression of the Royal will should be. circulated as speedily as possible through out the country, as well to inform our fellow.aubjects of every degree of the affectionate admonition of our Sovereign, as to dif fuse and promote that general concord, which, in the genuine spirit of parental regard, is declared by our good Rink to be " Not less essential to his Majesty's happiness than to our ewe, and which it has been the chief object of his Majesty, chub; his residence in this country, to cherish and promote." That a Subscription be raised to carry this object into effect, by printing copies of this important document for circulation, and forwarding them to every part of Ireland. That the Clergy of every communion, with the Nubility, Ma gistrates, and Gentry of the County, are respectfully requested to assist in this gratifying occupation, in each manner as is most likely to ensure success ; and that we most particularly recom mend and request that all the Reads of Schools, male and fe male, throughout Ireland, will introduce this letter as a school lesson among their scholars, in order that the youth of the coun try may be impressed with sentiments of gratitude towards their King, and of good will towards one another. That in inviting the aid of the several Cities and Towns on this occasion, we rely upon that " generosity and warmth of keart" which his Majesty is graciously pleased to say he " well knows to distinguish his faithful people in Ireland;" and we confidently anticipate that they will practically evince their ap proval of our object, either by forwarding subscriptions to our funas, or establishing local Committees for printing and circulat ing his Majesty's coma aunication. That a.Committee Je appointed to collect subscriptions, and to 'report the best mode of effecting the above object, to an ad :jouined Meeting, to be held at the Royal Exchange, on Mon. dsy, the 10th inst. at four o'clock in the afternoon. • The following Gentlemen were accordingly named lip the Meeting : •Eneas Esq. A. Brown, F.sq. Counsellor Lannigan, Counsellor Finn, Dr. Callinan, Colonel M'Dermott, Joseph rirDciintell, Esq. Mr. Mansell, Dr. Wright, Mr. J. Brown, and Mr. Richardson. The following letter was read at the Meeting: M Sir Edward Lees presents his respects to the Chairman at the Meeting convened this day, for the purpose ef affording circu lation to . the Letter addressed by Lord Viscount Sidmouth to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant, on the occasion of his Majesty's departure from Ireland, sod begs to offer his services, is every possible way, in aid of that most desirable object. Sir Edward Lees begs to add, that he is in possession of the names and residences of nearly 40.004 of the Nobility, Clergy, and Gentry of the Kingdom. • General Post-Office, Sept. 7, 1821." The thanks of the Meeting were voted to Sir EDwwan for this communication; and before break- ing up, Mr O'CoNNELL stated, that in order still further to forward the objects of the Meeting, a Club to be called the “ Loyal Club," should be esta blished in Dublin without delay. The Learned Gen tleman read a written minute on the subject. During his speech he delicately alluded to the late unfortu nate business at the Mansion-House, and hoped, that as the individual was a most worthy character, and as great contrition had been shewn, that all classes and distinctions should again meet him as a friend and as a brother—(Hear). It was intimated that Mr. SIIAW MASON is anxious to render service in facilitating the circulation of the clinuinent, and he also received the thanks of -the assembly. A subscription was opened in the room, and seve ral persons put down their names. DEPARTURE OF THE SQUADRON. ROYAL HARBOUR, KING . S•TOWN, FRIDAY AFTERNOON. The wind having blown hard and somewhat, squally during yesterday and part of last night, be came much calmer this morning, and about one it commenced to blow a north-westerly gale. The signal was therefore given to prepare, and all hands were immediately at work. The anchors being apeak soon after, the vessels all stood out beyond the pier -bead, except the Royal George and the Prince Regent (which latter sails not with the squadron, but is destined to follow wjth Sir B. BLoossetetn and some others, who are absent in the country). The Royal George appeared, after weighing anchor, and having partly loosened her sails, to be returning again to her moorings. This, however, was only in ap pearance, for the men were seen to work her out.— All the hired boats in the bay, filled with Ladies and Gentlemen, now gathered round the Royal George. His MAJESTY was on deck, walking up and down. and seeming to take great notice of the bustling scene. The KING was dressed in a plain blue coat and white waistcoat, with his seal-skin cap and gold band, a black neckcloth and blue trowsers, as on the pre ceding days. He seemed to converse familiarly with those about him. They approached him without ceremony with their travelling caps on, somewhat like his Luxury's, as was also the remainder of their dress. The guard boats, which hitherto kept far off the boats of the spectators, now suffered the free ap patch of them. His MAJESTY never looked more hale and fresh. He moved about briskly, and went sometimes to the side of the yacht, and looked over [her- eat time towards the peak and then towards the stern, casting occasionally a glance upwards at they men and rigging. His MAJESTY seemed to move about as if he were the Captain ; very few knew him. A Gentleman in a boat, at the side over which his MAJESTY looked, recognizing his Mn,. azsTv, stood up, and took off his hat, waving it gently, and in silence over his head. His MAJESTY, with great quickness of glance, no ticing this, took off his cap and lifted it on high, very gracefully smiling at the same time. The people in the boats all around, then knowing him to be the Kum, instantly rose, as it were, with one accord— the Gentlemen taking off their hats, and bowing low, the Ladies waving their handkerchiefs. His TiLt.rEs'nr again condescended to take off his cap. The specta tors gave one cheer, and only one, which was an swered by those on the pier. They all then stood un covered, wrapt is solemn silence. The yacht was now getting out pretty fast. The people on shore rushed along the pier towards the very extremity, by which the Royal George was to pass. She stood out in a few seconds, and at half-past two was a considerable distance beyond the pier, a-head of the entire squadron. All the private pleasure yachts remained in the Bay; the owners, it is presumed, not expecting so favourable a change in the wind, had gone on shore. Sir WILLIAst Cuaxts's Dutch-built yacht stood out for sea, with her canvas spread, awaiting the worthy Baronet's return from the county of Wicklow, whi ther it was said he had gone in the morning, to view the matchless scenery of the Dargle and Water fall. The Royal squadron, with the Royal flags hoisted and full sails, kept on a due easterly course, and many on that account thought they were bound for Holyhead. The intention was to get out far at sea, and then make for a southern course, it being apprehended that they were obliged to put back on Wednesday last, in consequence of keeping too close to the coast. Until five o'clock they were all distinctly seen from the hill, over the bay of King's-town, where many persons were assembled, and remained following the squadron with their eyes, and offering up fervent wishes for the safety of bis MAJESTY. A little Past five they had sailed beyond the light-ship, placed on the Kish sand-bank, and were then turning to the south. When they were no longer visible from the Royal harbour, several persons, some with vehicles . some on foot, some on horseback, set out for Bullock, thence to Dalkey Island, and finally for Killiney, all which are successively along the coast, and from which the squadron were very visible, particularly from Killiney, from which there was a goof} view until half-past six o'clock. FROM THE DUBLIN EVENING POST. FRIDAY, HALIP-PAST Tvoixvv. At this hour a dragoon, at full gallop, was ob served approaching Dunleary, and when he arrived at the Royal slip he delivereJ dispatches to a hies senger in a King 's boat, when they were instantly conveyed on board the Royal George. AU was now conjecture and anxiety among the spectators, his MA JESTY having some time before retired below, did not again make his appearance on deck till nearly two o'clock. TIAO-PAST thra. A gun was fired from the Lifey. Almost imme diately after the ear was saluted by the sailors' voices on heaving the anchor. Just at this moment it fell a dead calm ; the wind, however, in a short time be came tolerably brisk, and at half-past two the Royal squadron got under weigh, the wind S.W. by W. The guns at the battery fired a royal salute. Pievious to his MAJESTY'S departure, a fine fat buck was put on board the Royal Sovereign, as a pre sent to his MAJESTY from RICHARD VERSCHOYLE, Esq. of which his MAJESTY was graciously pleased to accept, together with an abundance of the choicest and most delicious fruit, from the gardens of Mount Merrion, the seat of Mr. VERSCHOYLE. SATURDAY. TWELVE O'CLOCK. The wind at this hour blows fresh, and directly against the Royal fleet. Sir WILLIAM CURTIS, in has yacht, De Jonge Vrow, has st returned, after seeing the squadron down the Channel. We were not able to ascertain at what point Sir WILLIAM parted from the fleet. PROM THE DUBLIN MORNING POST OF WEDNESDAY. Yesterday, at about ten minutes after two o'clock the Royal squadron got under weigh, and having cleared King's-town Harbour, stood out to sea. The guns at the battery fired a Royal salute. During the entire of the day, the Pier was the resort of a number of persons, including many from the City, all anxiously looking towards the Royal squadron, until the gathering shades of evening hid them from their view. Telescopes were to be seen from almost every house along the line of road from Merrion to Dun lean., all bearing on one point, and those who car ried them, from the frequent applications made for " a look," seemed but to hold them pro Bono public°. As the evening advanced, the Royal squadron ap peared to be making their way in fine style, right in the direction of Holyhead, and at that twilight hour, whilst they were yet discernible to the admiring and anxious spectators, " distinct, but distant;" the effect , produced by their " *gallant bearing," was fine be yond description. The Regent still remains in the Harbour at King's -town; boats were plying the en tire of yesterday, from the Pier to that beautiful yacht. PROM TIM 111ULRMAIeS JOURNAL 01 SATURDAY. Yesterday, about half-past two o'clock in the after noon, a movement was observed in the Royal squa dron at King's-town pier (Dunleary), when the flotilla stood out to sea, and passed the promontory of Bray in a short time, under a smart breeze. His MA• Jur: remained on deck, and with his usual con descension, bowed most gracefully, took off his tra velling bonnet, aad saluted in a particularly affec tionate manner, all the spectators who were assembled on the wall, and in the numerous boats with which the harbour was crowded, to witness the termination of the most endearing visit in the annals of modern Ireland. The scene was highly affecting and inte resting. It was like the parting of a kind father from his children. _ _ ADJOURNED INQUEST ON R. 110. VI: THIRTEENTH DAY, SEPTEMBER 11. The adjourned Coroner's Inquest upon the body o f Richard Honey resumed their sittings this morni ng at the Hop-poles public-house, Cdgeware•road. When the Court met, Mr. AnoLpitt's refereed to a mistake made by Mr. Hanson, sen. inadvertentlr, on a former occasion, respecting Colonel Cavendish's presence at the inspection of the Guards. Th e Co. lonel was now ready to be examined, if th e J ury thought the inadvertence alluded to materi a l. The Jury said there was no necessity whatever f a . the further examination of the Colonel. The CORONER, in answer to a question or two p at t o bins, said, that his summing up might last five or six hours. At half-past ten o'clock the Jury retired for a quarter of an hour. Upen their return, The Foreman addressed the Coroner, and said that the Jury having received several letters flora individuals who offered to give very decisive evi. dente relative to the DEATH of HONEY, they wished that those persons might be examined. The CORONER acquiesced, and the summoning officer was directed to summon those persons. 'Mel we left the Court the Jury were examining a w i tness named GoRDON. Saturday night, at half-past eleven o'clock, the Marquis of LONDONDERRY arrived at his house in St. James's-sq uare. The Marchioness, in the afternoon of the same day, arrived from North Cray, in orde r to meet his Lordship. Sunday afternoon the Ma l , quis and Marchioness left town for North Cray. Advices were yesterday received at Marlborough House from His Royal Highness the Prince of S. Comm, who is at present on a yi,it at Coburg to his mother, stating, that his return to this colotrr may not be expected till next spring. His Roil Highness has sent orders for the whole of his establish. ment in England going into deep mourning for be lite MAJESTY. PRINCE ENTERHAZT, &c.—These illustrious stun.. gels, with their suites, on their way to cowl!, arrived at Newton Don on Friday last, on a visit to its hot. pitable owner, Sir AIEXANDER DON, Bart.,Memb et for Roxburghshire. His Excellency promises to lb visit Scotland next year, having experienced, he we pleased to say, during his short stay in it, that bean ! welcome, and unbounded hospitality, forwhich it lus been so long and so justly celebrated. A letter from Tortola, dated July 21, says—" The Independents on the Main are evidently gaining ground ; the late decisive battle at Caraboz evince it. The Patriots frequently hover about these and islands, and peep into our harbours. Our neig: , bouth the Danes, at St. Thomas's, continue very unhealthy; one Danish frigate has buried five Captains in sit weeks. Last week the Colliers round Glasgow struck work for an advance of wages, and a Meeting of a gra body of them took place on Thursday, near Shett la ston Kirk. His Excellency Earl TALBOT, Lord Lientenmad Ireland, embarked at nine o'clock, on Saturday morr ing, on board the William and Mary yacht, under a salute from the shipping in the Royal harbour of King's-town, on a sail of pleasure round the northers coast of Ireland. His Excellency, it is said, mead to honour the city of Derry with his presence. When Earl FINGAL was at Powerscourt with his MAJESTY on Monday se'nnight, the SOVEREIGN pot his hand in the kindest manner on his Lordship's shoulder—and said, " My Lord, you will see my let ter to-morrow—l am sure it will please you." His MAJESTY spoke thus in the most emphatic manner, and it gives room for a most important inference. AmEcovrz.—An Irishman being asked what was the English of the quotation from Virgil : " Hie vii, hic est, tibi quern proraitti aphis audit, " Augustus --" which was exhibited in Dublin, in honour of the KING, answered, " Here, man alive! here ishe, whom the English often promised to send you in Augustr National justice was never enjoyed ,by Ireland until GEORGE IV. came to Ireland. He it was that first recognized the Heads of the Catholic Clergy in their own proper capacity. He it was that first acknow ledged the influence of their virtues and their statics in the great community of which he is the head. He it was that first dispensed the blessings of religious freedom in Ireland with a fair and equal hand. Is it wonderful, then, that a Monarch acting thus should be followed by the millions with the fervour of et thusiasm which we have witnessed? Certainly not, and the able and enlightened men who conduct the independent Press of England must bow to the force of the reasoning. Greatly do we admire their power ful advocacy of the character and rights of their late beloved and persecuted QUERN.- We ourselves par ticipated in their sympathies, and were not back ward in enforcing the justice and integrity of then opinions. opinions. But is respect for the conduct of his MA JESTY, when in Ireland, incompatible with the mot unlimited abhorrence of the persecutors of the Quo of ENGLAND? Are we to refuse the dispenser d equal justice, in a country which Junius said was eternally plundered and oppressed, because Lord Li' VERPOOL, Lord ELDON, and Lord SIDMOUTR, and their colleagues, think proper to advise the cowardli persecution of the Queen of ENGLAND? This is Po' sing the question fairly, and will amount to a is! vindication of that enthusiasm which overleaped a 4 bounds, and sometimes idly degenerated into ti e most fulsome bombast. But it is a great lessor to, both King , and People—to the King it is a sour ce o perpetual instruction. One short month has site' him a better opportunity of learning the easy la ic of governing Ireland, than years of cold and tales' I lating deliberation with such Ministers as he . ,hs about him, to whom neither the oaths nor tbe br! of Ireland are a sufficient security for their AdellA' or their allegiance. The Irish Nation has done dwr duty 'by the King, may the King continue to dots duty by Ireland—may he follow with a 60.3; firm mind his own admirable example in Is,t4_ and hundreds of thousands may be saved to the r) pile, that are now employed in what is call e ; l o p protection of the Throne 411.1 contwul 01 th e _ Vic Iri4hanor.
