The Mani/ear of the 17th contains an Edict of some importance, by the Government of ltio Janeiro, on the subject of the Slavl.• Trade, dated the 17th of February last. it states the desire of his Portuguese Majesty to carry into strict fulfilment the Treaty of, the 22d January, 1815, according to which all corn-1 snerce in Slaves, witton certain limits of the African coast, was interdtted to his subj.tts, and ;tali that the most efficacious measure whth can be adopted to pre• vent the infraction of this Truaty, appears to be, to prohibit Spanish ships from fitting out in Portuguese iscsrts, with the pretence of carrying on the trade in iliose parts of Africa where the traffic has not been abolished, comprising the whole line of coast between the Equator and lb° North latitude: That is, in other words, to say, that in AS far as the Portuguese • themselves are concerned, the trade would not only be abolialred within the limits interdicted by the Treaty, but even in time beyond these limit% were it not that certain Spanish traders in human blood, take advantage of the reservation in the Treaty, and under tie disguise of only trading with the reserved territory, continue their abominable traffic indiscriminately with whore coast. His NIAJLSTY therefore ordains, that in future no Spanish ship shall be allowed to , fit out in any Portuguese port for the purpose of trading in slaves in those p+rts of Africa batore de signed—namely, from the Equator to 10 3 N.

Almost all the letters received on Saturday trom Lisbon, mention the surrender or rather the capture of Perna,' buco on the 2eth of May, as before stated in the STAR. The accounts, though not official, are so circumstantial, that we can hardly dotlbt the The Pernambuco Revolutionists, it is stated, went cut to meet the force sent against them from Rio, but, being outnumbered, were defeated ; when a part of them retired into the interior. In the mean time the sailors of the blockading squadron, on the invita tion of some of the inhabitants, entered Pernambuco, and obtained possession of a principal part; after which the Royal Standard was hoisted in Pernam buco.—Some of the letters from Lisbon announce tbat the KING has signintd his intention of returning at no distant period to his old Capital in Europe.— The following are Extracts : LISBON, JULY 4. By the ship Novo Paquete, which loft Rio Janeiro on the 7th of May, touched off Pernambuco, and entered this port on the 30th June, we kern that on the t.0:11 May Pernambuco again began to wear the Portuguese Hag. , Near the Cape a battle was fought on the isith, between the croups which had arrived from Bahia and those of Pernambuco, which was lost by the latter, who as the ilitb retreated to Recife, and ou the vOth to Olinda, whence they will proceed to the it tenor, with their principal Chiefs and three or four hundred resolute men.

Three millers, from whom the Magistrates of this city have caused to be seized and put under seal a quantity of flour adulterated with chalk, were sent to prison yesterday morning, to be tried for the offence. On Saturday the Spanish Ambassador received dispatches ism Lima, dated the 13th of March, which centain a confirmation of the previous intel ligence of the capture of Chili by the Patriots, and of the dispet i.nt of the Royalist troops. Lima was quiet, but great uneasiness was felt at the sucess of the Insurgents. The three Noblemen who presented the Constitu tion from the lonian Islands on Friday sennight, are about to take a tour through England previous to their return. A letter from Mika announces the arrival in the Archipelago or a French frigate 'TomToulon, for the purpose of surveying that intricate and hitherto almost unknown navigation.

FUNEKAEoF IHE LATE D UKE DJ/NORTHUMBERLAND. —The remains of this Nobleman, who to the highest rank of the peerage united, we believe, the greatest property in England, were interred on Saturday, be tween ene and two o'clock, in the family vault, in the Chapel of St. Nicholas, Westminster Abbey, near Henry the Seventh's Chapel, with great funeral pomp. When the procession begair to move from Northumberland House just before one o'clock, the bells of St. Martin's Church and the Abbey began to toll. It was preceded by the six beadles belong ing to St. Martin's parish, with their staves in deep crape, accompanied by the High Constable of West minster, Mr. LEE, who was followed by two Mutes, on horseback; then came four horsemen in black. Banners of various kinds were carried by some of the thirty-s;x horsemen in mourning who attended in the procession : first, a streamer, with the Union flag, and some of the bearings of the PERMS; next a banner, with the crest, etc. then the full family arms displayed; afterwards the surcoat, with the sword and coronet, followed by the helmet, crest, and gauntlets. l'he ducal coronet, on a crimson velvet cushion, followed, carried by a horseman on a richly caparisoned horse. The hearse and eight mourning , coaches were each drawn by six horses richly plumed , and caparisoned, and the carriages were adorned with all the various escutcheons and achievements which " the boast of heraldry could give." Tour square banners were also carried by horsemen on , each side the hearse. The carriages and six of the late Duke. the Duchess, and the present Duke, fol lowed. The procession was closed by a train of 22 private carriages, several with six horses. Among them were the Archbishop of CANTERBURY'S, the' Marquis of CHOLMONDELIT'S, with six; the Marchio ness of EXETER'S, with four; Lord GWYDIR'S; with six; Mr. DRUMMOND BURRELL'S IWO carriages; the Viscount Exsecames, Earl Powls's, Lord Pitunnoa's, Lord JAMES MURRAY'S, &C. As the hearse passed , the Horse Guards, the drums beat the dead march, muffied. When the procession reached the Abbey, the body was met, as it entered the great western door, by the Dein of WILSTAIINSTIR, in full robes, who was attended by a full choir, which preceded the body into the Abbey Church, whence, having performed a solemn service, it was conveyed to the vault, and deposited by the side of the late Duke's (Aber, and also near the remains of his mother, the ,he rois of Aeozatiow, Duke of Sosmesti, who died ' the sth of December. 1776. The weather being ex tremely fine, all the windows were filled; and the green:, particularly about Charing Cross and Palace Yard, were crowded with spectators in private car riage., hackney-coaches, carts, and on foot. The procession extended nearly from the gate of Nor thumberland House to the Abbey. Among the nit mem:s domestic and old servants attending the fa neral was Richmond, the pugilist, who wee the im mediate attecilant upon the Duke forty-four year, ago, during the military *MICE Of his Grace in America. 1414WAL lATELLIG EATS. INSURGAN r PRIVATEERS. Information reached Lloyd's this morning that privateers, sent out by the Insurgents, were off the Azores the latter end of June, and that they had sue ceeded in capturing lour very valuable ships; three of them they carried off, and one they sunk. The account does not say whether an engagement took place, but as one of the vessels was sunk it is sup ro.ed there was an action. The following is a copy of Lloyd's boas on this subject: " The Grant Para, from amgal; the Nevs•Carolina, from China, for Lisbon; the Flora de Mayo, from La Guyra for ad!z ; and the 1.o; Dolores, from Porto Rico for Llatct were captured off the Azores the latter end of last nionto, by Insurgent privateers.
