Letters from Martinique to the end of June state, that a Spanish Government schooner bearing a flag of Mice had arrived at Fort Royal from Havannah, for the purpose of making some enquiry respecting the capture a letter of marque, named the Veloz 411ariana, having three millions of dollars on board, by a French 64-gun ship, and reported to have been sent into that poi% The prize, however, had sailed ham Fort Royal for France n few days previous to the arrival of the flag of truce. The KING of SPAIN has issued a Decree, dated at Ca.liz, June 30, which regulates the Spanish Tariff 7 -- - • rot a period of six months, ending on the 31st of December in this year. During this period the ex- port tra.le shall be regulated as follows :—Articles which, acc , trdii:g to the usual scale of duties, pay tr:o per cent. shall be entirely free. Those uhich ate rated higher than two per cent. shall pay merely the half cf their duty in the scale. The duty of two per tent. of administration on the transh•-'rt by sea, from purince to province in the Peninsula: and the adja cent islands, is suppressed, being solely maintained en remittances beyond seas, and on articles which ate marked at a higher rate than two per cent. By the list A merican arrivals we have received accounts from Mexico to the latter end of May. The Constitutional Sovereign Congress of Mexico had pissed several decrees; relating to the deposing of ITUNDIDE, and the alterations to be made suitable to the new Government. One decree declares, That the coronation of Don Augustin de Iturbide being an act of violence and force, and not a work of right, there is is call for any discussion on the abdication which be makes of the Crown. That likewise, consequently, the hereditary succession, and Ctles etn.stiating from that coronation, are declared to be an and all the acts of the Government, passed between the 'ntS of May and the 29th of last March, are pronounced illegal, or, at most, subject to the revisal of the actual Government for their being confirmed or revoked. That the executive supreme power shall hasten the departure of Don Augustin de Iturbide, in a neutral vessel procured at the arose of the State, for conveying him with his family to the place he may choose. That the sum of 2.5,000 dollars, payable in this capital, be annually assigned to Don Augustin de Iturbide during his life, ce the condition that lie may establish his residence in any part of Italy; and that after his death his family shall receive 8,000 dollars, under the rules established for the pensions from the military fund. That Augustin de Iturbide shall hold the appellation of Ex cellency. A second Decree alters the Arms of Mexico, and decrees, that the shield must be the Mexican Eagle, standing on the kit foot upon a nopal, or cochiucal hg-tree, which may grow from a rock among the waters of the lake, and with the right foot grasping a snake and holding it in a posture for tearing it to Tikes with the beak ; and that this blazon must be bordered with two branches, th: one of laurel, and the other of oak, ac cording to the design adopted by the first defenders of the In dependence. The national flag undergoes no other alteration than that of stripping the crown front the eagle. The word national is sub stituted for imperial, in all the public establishments; and it is decreed, that every one must beheld u a traitor, who shall an solace the said Don Augustin de Iturbide with acclamations flassj, or who shall be influential in any other mode, in recom mending him as Emperor. Friday, the Speedwell steam packet, while on her icay from Newcastle to Shields, struck on an anchor, near Wallsend, and was nearly upset. The vesset suffered considerable damage, and the water gaining fast upon her, the passengers, about 40 in number,' became seriously alarmed. Boats having been pro cured without delay, they were soon relieved from their perilous situation, and in about ten minutes the packet sunk. She was extricated, however, the fol. lowingtide. • The Marlborough packet arrived at Falmou4l on Friday last, in ten days from Lisbon. While the • lariborougli lay in the Tagus, a Mr. Whithall, once in good circumstances at Falmouth, but from mis fortune compelled to go to sea again, and then on board the packet, was sent fur to the police-office; "here he had no sooner arrived, than he was hurried away to prison, a perfect dungeon. The reported I charge against this unfortunate Englishman is, that he carried a letter from an ex-member of the Cortes, who had escaped to Falmouth, to his friends in Lisbon. —The Royal George steamer, Capt.

Among the emigrants which are flocking into the Michigan territory, the present season, are a respect able number of the Society of Friends, or Quakers, 'who have made an extensive purchase of lands for their permanent settlement, near the head-waters of the River Rouge. Friday, Captain flia.ronn's troop of Yeomanry sat down to TUT sumptuous dinner at the Rose Inn, Canterbury, given by dm most respectable body of men, to their Officers. Many loyal toasts were drank, with the health of their esteemed Cap "or and respective Officers, which were returned in animated and appropriate speeches. Blackheath was much enlivened on Friday by that respectable bOdy; the Worshipful Society of Apothe- . "ties, giving their grand Herbalising Lecture, at the Green Man Assembly Room. After which, up wards of two hundred Medical Gentlemen sat down to a most excellent dinner (at the above Tavern). Six fine bucks were p: °aided for the occasion, which, together with the rest of the viands, dessert, and wines, gave universal satisfaction. A laughable incident occurred while the Clerk of the Court was calling over the Commission of the Peace at the Bury Quarter Sessions. When he came to John, Earl of Stradbrook, a voice, very unlike an . Earl's, answered " Here be I."—lt appeared it was John Earl, of Stradbrook, who was attending on otiajaess, and thought he was called. ~~-- FASHIONABLE MOPEAILNTS.

VAUXHALL GARDENS. • Last night a grand Gala was given at these Gar dens, %Olen, in addition to the usual amusements of the evening, the Silver Cup and Cover, weighing 61 ounces, was presented by that very popular performer tfr. Mnuasos, to the winner of the sailing match. The fortunate Gentleman on this occasion was Mr. BROCKELBANIC, the owner of the St. George pleasure yacht, who received from the hands of the above Gen- tleman this elegant and costly testimonialof his merits and that of his vessel, with the following address:— " In the name of the Proptietors of VauxhaU Gardens, and of the Gentlemen composing his Majesty's Coronation Sailing Society, I present you with this Cup and Cover, and I am fur ther desired, to drink to your health, happiness, and long life, in which I shall be most corcUally joined by my colleagues now near me ; and we drink it unitedly with the highest satisfaction." The Gardens were attended by an elegant and' crowded assemblage. The decorations were very splendid, and suitable to the occasion ; the Rigs and devices of the Coronation Gala were retained, except in the instance of the splendid device, in flaming cha racters, " Coronation of our Royal Patron," which was substituted by the emblem of a vessel with all her sails set, and the motto, " Our Country's Pride," splendidly embelliihed. A great number of aquatic amateurs were present, and the ceremony was not a little imposing. The winner received the reward of his exertions with becoming grace, and drank out of the cup a hearty health to the company present, which was received with loud cheers. The Concert proved the great source of attraction in the early part of the evening, together with the Ballet of Cupid and Psyche, which was performed with great applause by the juvenile Corps de Ballet, who did credit to their instructor, Mr. Hum% This is altogether a new feature in the Gardens, and its success surpasses all expectation. In fact the Ballet proves the great attraction to the private supper rooms, which most conveniently front this charming little Theatre. The fire-works, which were of the very first de scription, were splendid beyond example. In the latter act of this national exhibition, the figure of a vessel of war was introduced, with the motto, 4 , Our Coun try's Hope," which was received with all the enthu. siasm peculiar to our national feelings. Mrs. BLAND, so many years a favourite vocalist at Drury-Lane Theatre and Vauxhall Gardens, is now, unfortunately, in a state that precludes the hope of her ever returning to her professional duties. A most extraordinary and sudden effort having been made to procure patronage and pecuniary as- sistance to the Schools belonging to the National So ciety, by means of the KING'S Letter to the Arch bishop of CANTERBUItY, the Friends of the Education of the Poor upon liberal principles are reminded that the British and Foreign School Society, which was the means of giving rise to the National Society, and which has been productive of the best moral effects,' both in this country, and in all quarters of the world, is greatly in need of Fands ; and arrangements are now in progress for making known the nature of its claims, and applying to individuals throughout the country for aid. Great numbers of persons are daily viewing the , large oak tree, which has lately been felled in Tooley Park, Leicestershire. This surprising oak is ten yards round the butt of solid timber, and is valued at about 200 guineas.. The bark is estimated at three tons; and the tree and branches now fallen, cover half an acre of land. It is supposed to have been growing several hundred years. Many of the branches are from three to four yards round. Too Muca OF A GOOD TN INGI.—A certain country. squire had a warren, and the village curate was. Sun day after Sunday, regaled with the delicacy of rabbits, till he became so sick of them, that he took the liberty of hinting his dislike of the standing dish to the host, in the following grace, on rising from the table:— " Of rabbits hot, of rabbits cold, " Of rabbits tender, rabbits tough ; "Of rabbits young, f rabbits old, " I thank tke L—d, we've had enough !"

The Election to return a Member to Parliament for the above Borough, in the room of the late Wit.- LiAm SHEPHERD KINNERSLY, Esq. terminated on Thursday, to the entire satisfaction of the warm and zealous supporters of our glorious Constitution. Se veral Gentlemen were spoken of as likely to offer for the vacancy : amongst others, Mr. YEATES BnowN, of London, who had been unsuccessful on a former occasion; but, after receiving the opinions of his friends, be decline.] the contest. Shortly after wa: ds It. HEATHCOTE, Esq. of Longton Hall, and J. E. DENISON, Esq. of 0 sington, Nottinghamshire, made their appearance, and declared their intention of con tending for the honour. The polling commenced on Monday last with great spirit; but the friends of Mr. HEATHCOTE, finding that their exertions were unavailing, advised him to retire, which he did after the suit roll had been gone through a first time, ' leaving Mr. DENISON a majority of twenty-three.— It has been reported that there was a great probabi lity of Mr. HRATHCOTE'S success, and that his defeat is owing entirely to not having commenced the can vass so early as his opponent; but I can assert, ith• out fear of contradiction, that, if the Election had continued, the majority would finally have amounted, to between sixty and seventy. TO 7'HE EDITOR OF THE STAR. Lummox, Jun" t 9. Ste—The account given in an Evening Paper, respecting the unfortunate accident which betel the Sovereign Coach, is very incorrect, as it states " that one of the passengers had died after being removed home." The only persons killed were a clergy man of the name of Atterbury, and the coachman, who has left a helpless wife and three infant children. The other passengers have been removed from hence, and had only received a slight frac ture and a sprain. A Coroner's Inquest has sat upon the de ceased, and their verdict is " Accidental Death." Nut the slightest blame is attached to any one connected with the coach. The linch-pin had fallen out, and was found more than a mile from the place where the fatal accident occurred. Monday an accident occurred to two soldiers' wives, who were on a waggon, employed to convey the baggage of the 15th Hussars to Canterbury. The waggon was proceeding down Shooter's-Hill, but was accidentally:thrown over on the back, seriously in juring the two women abovementioned, and killing the child of a serjeant's wife on the spot. The women ' were immediately taken' to Blackheath, and are re-1 covering from the injury. A melancholy accident happened on Thursday morning, at Eastfield colliery, near Rutherglen. As a married man named Smith, and two boys, Gil mour and Brown, were descending the pit, the bucket came in contact with some boards, when one of the cranks came out of the bucket, and precipitated them to the bottom, thirty fathoms, and they were killed on the spot. Tuesday night three men, who were employed in sinking a well on a brewer's premises in Leith, went into the malt-house to rest themselves, and lying down near the kiln, were so overcome by the heat and sulpbureous air that they fell asleep. They were found a short time after, two of them nearly lifeless, and the third quite dead, from the effects of the air. Tuesday week, as the schooner Bee, of Maryport, Rus set& Master, was on her passage from Ireland, the Captain's son was carried overboard by the main boom ; his father threw him a adder, fastened by a rope to the vessel, which the young man laid hold of, and supported himself by it. No further assistance, however, c ould be rendered, as his father had not any person on board except himself; the latter, therefore, continued to be dragged after the vessel, often under water, until at length they bade each other a heart-rending farewell, and the young man was unfortunately drowned, still clinging to the ladder, from which his body was with difficulty separated, when it was towed into Maryport harbour. Monday an Inquest was taken at Headington, Oxfordshire, bed* Mr. Caren., Coroner, on view of the body of Joseph Horrod, a child a year and t hree-quarters old, who, while play ing in a field, was kicked on the head by a horse, and so se verely hurt that he died soon after.—The Jury, after besting the evidence and the Coacixsa's observations upon it, stated their unanimous opinidp that the child's death was occasionedilby the injury he had received from a kick Of Mr. Finch's horse ; but that no blame whatever attached to any person. Verdict—Ac cidental Death—Deodand, Is. S.to•cier ni a Don.—Monday se'nnight, as two carts loaded with flour were passing through a narrow lane in Falkirk, the driver had, with a culpable negligence too common, lingered be hind the carts. At this time a little child happened to fall right on tbeivad where the carts were just to pass. At the critical moment a large dog, who generally accompanies the carts, sprang to the child, and, to the astonishment of several persons looking on, dragged it off the road by the clothes, where had it remained but • a few seconds longer, it must in all probability have been crushed to death by the cart-wheels. John White, convicted of being a rogue and vaga bond, and wi th falsely pretending that his tongue had been cut out, underwent an examination on Sa turday last, before the MAYOR of Exeter, and Mr. Alderman Flouts, and was sentenced to be impri soned three months to hard labour. DUBLIN SILK Weal/Ens—The arrival of the mail, which brought the joyful tidings .to the silk weavers of Dublin, that the Bill for repealing the Spitalfields Weavers' Act was thrown out, caused an instanta neous bustle in that part of the Liberty where the silk weavers reside. Preparations for bonfires and illuminations immediately commenced. A triumphal arch was erected ; it reached from one side of the Coombe to the other, and was tastefully ornamented with blue ribbon, laurel, and roses, with the shuttles of the different branches appended. During any part of the evening they received no interruption what ever from the civil power, notwithstanding the ap prehensions which some entertain of permitting the people to take any public amusement, especially at the present time. Indeed the peaceable and proper conduct of the weavers is so well known to the Police Magistracy, that no ill consequence was apprehended. An excellent band, composed of their own trades men, heightened the pleasure of the evening. The body of trade, preceded by the band, marched -fVom the triumphal arch to the Weavers Hall, and there, after a display of fire-works, rockets, &c. they again returned to the house of meeting, playing GOD save Me King, Patrick's Day, add other national airs ; the men wore blue ribbons, and carried the banners and Bast made use of on the happy occasion of the KING'S visit. The body of trade having retired to the large and commodious apartment in their house of meeting, which was tastefully ornamented, sat down to enjoy themselves for the remainder of the night. Imme diately on the Chair being taken, a vote of thanki to the Lords Spiritual and 'temporal, and Commons, for their noble conduct in support of justice and huma nity, was proposed, which was received with un bounded applause, and drank withibree times three, with the-tune of GOD wee Ofer • : •--:-. sponms prEuropisii. BAILING MATCH. An excellent match took place yesterday above Black friars. bridge for a handsome Silver Cup and Cover, weighing 61 ounces, and presented by a Club, founded for the Annual Celehralitm of his Majesty's Coronation. Considerable exertions were made by the Gentlemen of the Club and the Proprietors cf Vauxhall Gardens to render it attractive, and it was satisfactory to find that they were highly efficient. The first part of the afternoon proved extreme:) , fine, and crowds eol'ected on thc Bridge% Wharf% Gardens, he. at an early hour to witness the display. A steam-boat was moored off &mkt - tiara-bridge with a band of music on board, and several others' were distributed up the ltiv.'r. The pleasure-boats on the water were extremely numerous, well handled, fashionably filled, and had a very gay appearance. The hour proposed for starting was three, r.x. but some un avoidable delay retarded it, without, however, exhausting the patience of the spectators. Twelve boats were entered to con tend fur the prize ; and having taken their stations according to lot at the pier heads of Black&lars-bridge, a boat was deputed from the steam vessel to exhibit the cup to the competitors; it did so, anti the beauty of the trophy created fresh sensations of desire. At about twenty minutes past five, all being fully prepared, the gun fired, and a very seaman-like start was made by the majority of the boats. The St. George, a ten ton boat, having an excellent station, and being neatly east, took the lead; but the Antelope, of six tons, was the first un der well trimmed sails. They all gathered way without any material accident; but all hands being to leeward in the Swift, or the sail bring too much for her, she heeled and turned right over: we are most happy to say,' however, that there were kw lives lost; and the misfortune being hardly known to many of the boats, the ardour of the match was not destroyed. -r- The Swift iying, , en her beam-ends, appeared the signal fur tout ing, for the Venus, a/mit of thirteen tons, and the largest of the tlelve, instead of bearing up, ran her bowsprit between the main aid and boon of the - Anretapetopped her way, and lost her the ground her previous activity had gained her. The breeze was light and pleasant ; the St. George. had decidedly the windward and bead ; but the boats had not proceeded far when the Waterloo ran foul of the unfortunate Antelope and snapped her own bowsprit in two; this, of course, threw her astern, and ren • dered her unfit for immediate service. The boat to be sailed round wax moored off Putney-bridge, and the appearance of the boats passing Waterloo, Westminster, Vauxhall, and Battersea bridges was extremely pretty. Unfortunaiely before they reached the moored boat, the weather became cloudy, the rain fell, and much of the breeze died away. It was beating , wind all the way up the river, and, consequently, much activity was displayed in working the vessels. The St. George first rounded the boat, taking the lead down, and was followed by the Spitfire, a small boat of five tons. We should have mentioned, that this boat, a short time previous to starting, car ried away her mast, both at the hounds and upper part of the cuing, and the crew shewed great celerity and activity in re-rig ging her in so short a space of time. The St. George kept the lead, and was the first boat that reached Vauxhall Gardens, the goal of victory. She arrived at about twenty minutes past eight o'clock, and was received With loud cheering, and a discharge of cannon. The Spitfire was but a very short distance astern of the St. George, and some objections were made to the latter boat having hadltwo helmsmen,but she fairly won the race : and there was nothing in the printed conditions to support th e dispute raised by the Spitfire. The match generally gave great aatisfac. faction; notwithstanding the rain, and many parties, even of ladies, continued on the water till the victory had been decided. ETON REGATTA. Last Saturday being what is called Election Saturday at Eton, the Annual Regatta took place. The young Gentlemen of the College went up the River to sup at Sudley Hall. The weather was much more favourable than could have been expected after A very stormy day, and the procession of gaily trimmed boats was one of the most pleasing and interesting sights we have ever witnessed. The band of the Oxford Blues occupied two boats in the procession, and played some delightful airs during the whole of the entertainment. An immense number of elegant carriages, filled with beautiful and well dressed women, added greatly to the effect of this lively scene. The procession returned to Eton at half-past eight, when a brilliant display of fire works took place from the island opposite the bridge, which was illuminated with coloured lamps. Soon after nine o'clock the whole ceremony concluded, the band playing " Goo save the King." The whole thing went off with great eclat, and without • any accident. BRIGHTON RACES, JULY 28. The fineness of the weather on the preceding evening enticed numerous fashionable parties to promenade the Steine and the East Cliff till ten o'clock, and everything bade fair for a large company to view the Races. But the rain during the night, and heavy shuwers up till twelve this day, threw a complete glom* over the town; and at one o'clock, the time of starting, fifty carriages were the most that might be counted upon the race: ground. 'The Duke and Duchess of Richmond, surrounded by several of their children, in a baroucbe and four, accompanied by the carriage of Lord George Lennox, ial whiolt were seen his Lordship and several young Ladies, took their stations under the Grand Starve. The weather clearing up, the company began to increase, and the race•grouod assumed a more cheerful aspect. The band of the 7th Light Dragoons was placed near the car- _ riage of the Duchess of Richmond, and at intervals several most interesting pieces of music were performed for the amusement of the Duchess. The bell at length announced that the follow ing hones were about to start fur His Majesty's Gold Cup, value 100 gs. added to a Sweepstakes of lOgs. each ; two miles.
