1 Iti• If µ e received a tile of Charleston Papers this mo rning to the -Ith February.— The folloNs ing is an al:stract:— Tag SIIITIs:1 EXTEXIMNIA VIM MONoroLT IN TUC CAsT MUMS. Extract of a letter from Pedi Island, of Sumatra, Sir Stamford Holies, on the part of the Bei tidi last India l'outpany, i■ April last purchased from Hewlett, the King of Acheer, the exelasive privilege of trading on the coast for the British flag; be has paid a I. of rupees to Howlett, who will now be able to es tablish himself on his throne and destroy his enemies. Tli• monopoly must continue ❑ntil that event at least, led was not positively known to any o f th e mas t ers of thr British vessels lying on the coast until now." One of the greatest prodigies of the present age the very scanty and irregular information we pin respecting an incipient revolution of a Govern ment situated in the very heart of Europe. As s Boum! , is, indeed, at the head of that Govern wet, we luny very well imagine that the French mnials. which rctain none of the tincture of re will avoid expatiation upon such a Nic. This family occupies four thrones at this day, which may be said to have given the poli twl for some centuries to the greatest inn of the civilized globe. and therefore any shock which may be felt in any one of those States (and Spain is a very distinguished one) may well be imigined. in the way of percussion, to affect, more or less, all the rest. As soon, however, as the Courezz assemble, and that oectseace_ must take Place let what will be the trot* of events yet in snspenee, we shall tare licensed narratise of the proceedings of the pa triots of Spain from day to day, by which we may safely augur what is likely to be gained by social man, from all that has taken place of late, but is at present so imperfectly known. In France it is painful to behold the strtir-gles which talie place to turn the sad occurrence of the assassination of the Duke of BERRY to the perma nent suffering of mankind. The arts and arguments esed to establish the ominous projet of law relative to individual liberty, confound the honest patriot: r.tv men arc bold enough to urge what may be (dieted r.; on the topic. General FOY indeed, in an animated sreech, which was particularly listened to, opposed the passing of this prtijel de loi, by man folly exclaiming. " Let not posterity reproach us (c►ied the General) with sacrificing the liberties of Prance for a been tomb to the memory of a Prince of the Hoare of Hot:111101C State policy forbids it— French honour revolts at it—Justiee trembles at it —1 vote fbr the rejection of the prtiet de Poi." This emi.hatic speech was applauded by the tri bun(•s, and so particularly in one as to excite the censure of the Pre s ident, and invoke the order fix clearing it of all stranger . STOCK EXCHANGE. ONE O'CLOC.':. The Funds hare been extraordinarily steady during the whole of the week, the extreme prices of Consols for money having been 681, and ; in fact, the public babe ceased to act fbr the present: the consequence is, business, both real and speeitlatke, seems to be at a stand, and until the elections are finished, and the new Parliament meets, we have little hopes of any amendment. ('o►;*ols for the Account are 681, 69, and Exche• (pier Bills at 2s. discount. Extract of a letter from Cape Henry (Hayti), dated Jan. 22:-- " The report, which has been pnhlished in the Ame rican papers, that the intercourse between Christoptse and Boyer had been opened, is without foundation, as the hostility existing between these Chiefs still prevail. \o communication with the two ports are permitted on any account whatever. Christophe has recently aug mented his nave considerably : the fortifications at th e entrance of the harbour an also much im proved, and those in the town well adapted for mili tary positions. King Henry resides at Sans tionci, sixteen miles from town. Part of the Haytian aquas dmn is now ensiling. Rover's foree is said to be in ferior to that of Christophe. Boyer has invited the free pimple of colour, in America, to emigrate to his dotal dons."

There are two pro minent 'wises which appear to hare led to the present opposition : first, the distresses of the times, which, since the last elyrtion, have reused about two hundred and forty of the electors to receive parochial relief, and are thns disfranchised ; and, secondly, the party wlso sup port M .. . Anson and !tombola felt themselves too secure, and thus lust many of the out-voters. Ifeorral Walpole had his freedom granted in the tear 17ttft, but did not take it up till Thursday afternoon. When he polled, the partizans gave I ' three cheers—lse turned towards them, and said, in an audible and impressive manner, " I thank you—l come here to vote for your independence." Sir John Oshorne's committee are very active in endeavouring to iterstistle the freeholders of Bedfordshire, who havr promised their votes to the Marquis of Ta vistock and Mr. Pym, to withhold them from the latter and give plumpers to the former. Mr. Alderman Wood's Committee having noticed a paragraph in The Morning Chronicle of this day, containing extracts from the Address of the Recorder of Loudon to the Lord Chief Baron, on the pre sentation of the Alderman on his re-election as Lord Mayor, beg to inform the Editor of " 'I'IIk STATESMAN," that the Lord Chief Baron was Thoinpson, and not Richards. BRIGIIIIMI, M.IIICII 10. -.01.- Our beloved Sovereign, it gives ns pl to ohserve, continues in a state of improving health and spirits. The coldness of the weather hitherto, a sharp and pene trating north wind commonly prevailing throughout the week, has prevented leis Majesty from taking those re freshing public airings on horseback, or in a carriage, to which he is inclined; but which, should the atmo sphere become more mild, and present indications are in favour of such a change, suck salutary rides and in spiriting exercises, we have every reason to believe his Majesty will daily pursue. At present Isis 314jrsty confines himself to the Palace, devoting his time to State affairs and business, with no other company than the noble personages a•ho imme diately constitute the limited !loyal suite. Lady Bloomfield arrived at the Palace on Tuesday. Since writing the above, we have learnt that his Majesty enjoyed a lengthened promenade on the en closed . grataatiayfabe puthter,in the uttermost ttf day, and felt Wood ouch refreshed by the exercise. The workmen areettee more busily employed on the exterior of the Palacb: considerable progress, in open ing new beauties in the design, has been made by them shire this day se'nuight. Sir Benjamin Bloomfield departed for London on Sunday last, but returned to the Palace late on Mouthsy etening. OR.ironios. -...-- ROYAL COaeaa THrArs►.—Last flight a grand Inimi cal selection was performed at this truly-elegant Theatre. The liberal and spirited blanagers, it appears, afford every facility in their power for the gratification of the public ; among which the musical banquet of last night was a pleasing specimen. A duet, sang by Sig nora Coast and Aa4DiOUITTI, was rapturously encored ; as was the Echo duet, by Signora Cdaitt and bliss M. Coast. The young Lady who made her second ap pearance has a line voice, and though she appeared timid, we have no doubt a little of the sunshine of po pular applause will soon warm her lido a confidence that may show her maturer talents to advantage. We are informed she is a pupil of Mr. ll'Afte, the leader, who in a rajsririu displayed his astonishing powers on the violin. bliss Lore, who is a meritorious anal crow ing favourite with the public, sang " He was despised," in her best style. Pcsam.tst's "Comfort ye" was not his happiest efforts. lltoat.►n's powerful bass voice elicited d share of the general applause; indeed, the whole of the evening's performance dues great coedit to the llanagers. Yesterday, the Duke of York dined with Mr. and Mrs. Colitis and a select party ; among whom was Lord Erskine. Philip Iliallett Case, Esq. of Testerton, in Nor ' folk, had last week the honour of visiting his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, and was by that distinguished personage presenter with a ' ring. The squadron of 00 14th Light Dragoons, under the command of Captain Anderson, hove marched into quarters at Aylsham and North Waltham during the elections. A junction of the Glducester and fterkel4 l'anal, with those of the Thames, Severn, mad Stroud ter. has keen effected, by Which a very mite:mime lice of sestuntu nication is opetied.

She prepared to mount the parapet, apparently with the intention of Th rowing herself into the Seine. Some per sons, who had followed her closely, prevented this act of insanity. An individual, whd is an inmate of the house (Hue St. Dominique) in which Madame Lavalettc resides, affirms, that it was that Lady, and adds, that she was conveyed to her actual place of abode. Estrange ment of mind affords the most probable way of account.. ing for the fact. For what could give rise to despair in the heart of the wife of the Post-Erector, whom the King in his boundless grace and goodness has condescended to pardon.—(Qmotidienne.) LOUVEL.—It is related that one of the Magis , trates entrusted with tbe duty ofexaminiog into the affair of bouvel, found it necessary to say to one lof his profession, " We ought not to wi s h t o fi n d in this business what does not really belong to it."
