The San Joan Bap tista has been taken by a privateer under the flag of Ar tigas, at slt miles off Cape St. Vincent, and in sight of a Spanish schooner.

Thursday, the Prince Regent held a Levee, al Carlton-house, chiefly for the purpose of giving au dience to the Persian Ambassador, and to receive the presents which had been sant for his Royal Highness's acceptance, from the Sovereign of Persia. On Tuesday, the 11th instant, the baptism of the infant son of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge was celebrated at Hanover with the ne cessary forms, and with a degree of magnificence suitable to the occasion. The Duke of York on Monday submitted some new clothing for the three regiments of Foot Guards, to the Prince Regent, at Carhen-house, which, we understand, the Regent was pleased to approve. Saturday Dr. Marsh, the Bishop of Peterborough attended at Carlton-house, at three o'clock, to do homage before the Prince Regent, upon his being translated from the Bishoprick of Llandaff to the Bishoprick of Peterborough.

We refer our kaderi to the very curious and import ant correspondettee (which they will find in ano ther part of our paper) between, these varties, as lii4lilv Winn atiye of the " financial prolirrity of the Countiy."

The Times of Monday himr. that last year there was a considerable difficulty in find ing money to pay the Dividends. We were in posses sion of the facts conity:ted with the embarrassment al. hided to, but, comin tttt icated as they were under an injunction of secrecy, we could not lay them before our Readers. The conclusions which we drew from these facts, will probably be remembered, and the cons . mews to which they gave rise. We were accused of " aiming a blow at the financial establishments of the Country,' but every day has tended to cootirin the (mil Mott we then gave. The Directors, not content m tilt trampling Nam poor Vansittart, call olio's him for pro tection against those who have been engaged in the honest clideavuur to expose their situation. They 'nay as well be quiet. The helpless 115511 is no more aide to stop the ide of publicopinion, than they are to pay their debts iu ma tey.

General Paez states, that the force of the enemy amounts to boric men, of witleil 4000 are infantry It is with infinite pleasure 1 inform you, that Morino commenced his re treat on the 15th of February, compelled thereto by she bravery of our troops, and Ly the want of cattle and horses.

SPANIARDS iir rue EX PEDITIO!4.—Yon have seen in Spain the beniticent labours uf a liberating Cortes, succeeded by Ibe arbitrary acts of a bespotted despotism; you have seen your native country, after a ninineutaty and chi-cling glimpse of freedom, plunged in the depth of political stark ness.—You have small tar scattered the wonder of I:ueope for unrelenting proscriptions, and fur atrociom, cruel, and bloody executions. Alisl (ireat ChM ! who were the ins prisoaed and proscribed?

It remained only for the perpetrators of such ci isms in choose you, the very men who had witnessed and deplored these inflictions, as at once the Instruments and the victims ut their extension to the oyster's world. Madmen 1-11 ad they doubled the number of their transported legions. and composed all these of men who might he titter agents of crime than you tan be, such is here the incompressible spirit of liberty that they would have been dashed from our roasts, or ingulphed upon our bIIIIICI , , Ito surely as the seriatim's reptile thrown upon the rut face of o volcano would tie snot hilated iu the burning blast of its cutter.
