We received the Paris Papers of Tuesday last night They bring us no intelligence of much importance. The attention of the French is directed altogether to commercial !petitions. The Consitestionnel, in an article on the late negotiations with the black Republic of Hayti, contends tutrongly !for the rccogniticn of its independence. " Fur twenty years," argues the Journalist, " it hes maintained, fact, an independent existence, and had a regular Go vernment. It is treated with consideration by all the nations who understand the value of its commerv; why then should we deny ourselves these advantages, especially • the PunstuuNT is willing to grant the old proprietors indemnity? The cause of the Colonists of St. Do- ,ingo appears to us to deserve a more favourable regard than that of the emigrants. The former did not provoke their disasters, and they are ail in the greatest poverty. Colonises who had a hundred thousand livres of income, obliged to beg humbly for a wretched peneion of a hun dred crorms, while the emigrants fill all the lucrative em ployments of the State." The proceedings in the Chambers on Monday were of interest. The Archbishop of PARIS has been appointed the Committee on the project respecting the due regu lation of convents, in lieu of Count FEBRAND, who has died rasher suddenly. The son of the late General IVOUST has been admitted to succeed to his father's 'eerag,e. It is stated that the Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND will attend the Coronation of Cita stsa X. as Ambassador Ex traordinary from the British Court, and that his Grace's , fission . will be in a style of the utmost magnificence. The ironikur.contains nothing official. In its non leis! part, it tells a ridiculous story of some provincial raker in France, who " may placwiritnaelf at the head of loan" for Fr 1:11INAND VII. and "enter into competition with the English and the Dutch." What pledge can this . Obtain, that his CATHOLIC MAJESTY may not again find it convenient to violate? The first proof of his financial honesty will be the recognition of his al debts. The Journal del Davis copies from the Gu:xlic Univer : an account of the rebellion of COLOCOTRONI, which is item ascribed to a traitorous plot with IBRAHIM PACHA. this imputation we believe, with the Editor of the .mama/ des Dtbals, that there is no foundation whatever. .c says truly, " the Military Chiefs are not traitors; but they are turbulent and ambitious." It is essential, how eve;, to the safety of Greece, that their turbulence should kept down, and as the mildness with which the offer.lers were treated on former occasions has not sub dued them to repentance, it will be a gaestioa with the Greek Government whether measures of capital severity should not 1:1? resorted to. • Favorer' FUNDS.—Five per Cents. 102 f. 6.k.; Rank Stock, 1,965 f. ; Neapolitan 5 per Cents.

We deeply lament these disastrous interruptions of the public repose; but we feel no alarm whatever for the independence of Greece, which, were it really in danger, would have no braver supporters than they who are now unhappily engaged in factious dis putes with the Executive Authorities. Still, these dissen sions are productive of evils of great magnitude. The Turks, considering the Greeks as a divided people, will probably be induced to make another attempt to subjugate them. We have no doubt that the fifth campaign will end like all its predecessors, with disgrace to the Ottoman arms; but we had rather, for the sake of humanity, that it were not begun ; and, if the turbulent spirit of the Greek chieftains could be repressed, we think it would not. The Executive Authorities must act with vigour and severity against the rebels. CorocoraoNt has been pardoned before, in grati tude for his early services in the patriotic cause. The public safety will now require that he should be deprived of all power to offend again. Yesterday we received private letters from Buenos Apes dated the Bth of November. They relate principally to the recognition of the independence of the new American States. The meeting of the General Congress of the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata was originally fixed for the Ist of January, but the day had been sines changed to the Ist of December, when it was intended that business of an urgent and important nature was to be submitted to their consideration. The public curiosity was wound up to a high pitch, as the Executive Government kept secret what was to be the subject of the deliberations of the Congress. It was known, however, that the last despatches received by our Consu'-General, Mr. PA alsit, had communicated the decision of the British Government as to the question of recognition, and it was believed that he was furnished with his credentials as Minister from this country, and with instructions to negociate a commercial treaty with the General Government of the United Provinces. The Bri tish Merchants at Berens - a Ayres feel the warmest gratitude tohis blarisrv's Ministers for the protection they will henceforth enjoy. Every attention is shown to their in terests, spiritual as well as temporal. A Chaplain was to be added immediately to the new Minister's establishment. By the same conveyance we have received the following extract of a letter from Arequipa, dated the 31st of August. It does not actually conarm the accounts we have given of the sanguinary battle on the plains of Jauja, but it tends strongly to corroborate the fact. There can be very little doubt that CANTARAC was making his way as fast as he could into the interior. It will be observe', that the writer alludes to " rumours of further misfortunes." The second action was probably th.tt which terminated in the complete overthrow of the Royalists, as stated in the lespateh we published on Wednesday : AREQUIPA., AUGUST 31. Bolivar ban had a meeting with Cantarac, and the result of an action, which the latter says " he should have gained but that his ,mope ran away," was his retreat from the field of battle 40 leagues earer to Cusco, to which point every man the Spaniards can muster is pressing forward with forced levies in every direction. The general eonfuslon fully denotes the dread in which they stand if the Libertador. Some rumours are afloat to-day of further nisfortunes sustained by the Spaniards, ant', from the silence •bserved, I should not wonder if Bolivar had given them a second lefeat. It will be seen by our extracts to-day from the Kings ,,,re Royal Gus.:lk, that it is intended by the colonists of Jamaica to come into our money market for a loan on the •relit of the island. The proceeds are to be applied, amongst Alter public improvements, to the increase of churches, and the melioration of the gaols and workhouses. Another, and as it seems to us, a still more important object, is the inducement of the emigration of families from the United Kingdom to be settled in the middle of the islaud, in order :o lay the foundation of a larger white population, and cut Jff the retreat of runaways into the woods and fastnesses of :he interior. There can be little doubt, in the present su perabundance of capital, that the colonists will be able to supply their wants on reasonable terms. Although our warnings may have considerably abated the absurd rage for mining speculations, it is still strong enough to make us blush for the simple credulity of our countrymen ; and to induce us to persevere in exposing the ruinous infatuation that is now abroad, and saving, as far as we are able to save, those who have not yet become the dupes of it. We really seem, on a sudden, to be whirled back a century or two, and to live at a period when wisdom was in its infancy, instead of living, as we do, in an age when fraud has well nigh exhausted its stratagems, and experience, in the way of deception, has left us nothing to learn. But the world was a blockhead from the Lginning, and we fear it will so continue to the end of the chapter. In the mean time, we shall go on to address ourselves to the " thinking public," and to see whether there is anything in these mining projects which can at all justify the avidity with which they are sought after. From a variety of circumstances, which we have not leisure to detail at length, there arises a very strong pre sumption, that the projectors of these various Mining Companies have actually no mines in their posses:* ,n! ! that they have, as yet, to send out agents to South _lmer;ca, to commence their geological survey, for not an acre of earth, or an ounce of ore, have they at present in occupation!!! What, then, we would ask, have the sub scribers, in the shape of value received, for the immense sums which have found their way into the pockets of those who first broached these attractive schemes? The share holders must have at least presumed, on paying down their deposits, that they were part p.roprieturs of a mine some where; they never could suspect that they had parted with their solid cash to become joint-holders of a hug or moon shine! On the contrary, they conceived themselves about to realize the pastime of their infancy, and that they I should speedily say in good truth— •' Here we are, on TOM T►CKLER'a ground, Picking up gold and silver!" It never certainly could ca car to them to suspect for a moment that the ground was as yet covered with high grass in which their shares were buried ; and that the risbes out of which the profits of their capital was to be returned, had to more of tangible existence its the bed of the earth than in the bed of the ocean ! We are disposed to speak with all due respect of many whose names are at tached to these speculations ;—we have done so already; but we shall never be restrained from putting the puldie on their gu..3 against delusive and ruincits zchemes of wealth, from any undue courtesy towards the individuals with whom they originated. If our representation of facts is incorrect, let those whose interest it it; to support the credit and staLiiity of their schemes disprove them. iVe affirm that these mines,. the shares of which are selling at this madly-advanced pice, have no existence. if this assertion exceeds Tie truth. 7 4' they do exist, and if the quantity of the precious metals to be produced from them has been at all ascertained by any BRITISH PR] THE one person skilled in the art of mining, let the fact be averted on authority, and we will most willingly withdraw our statement. In the meanwhile, let the adventurers pause till they are better informed. If they have a favour able opinion of the future prosperity of South America—an opinion, by the way, in which we think they are abun dantly supported—surely their safest and most prudent in vestment is South American stock, which puts them im mediately in the receipt of an interest of five or six per cent. ; while the mines, even when reduced into possession, will yield no return for four or five years at least, and the greater likelihood is, that not one in ten of them will ever yield any return at all : or they may find investments in canals, rail-ways, and other commercial and highly pro ductive improvements, going on iu their own country, in which their capital would be to the full as eligibly em barked as in the Independent States of Mexico or Colotn bia. A very great advantage, no doubt, belongs to any speculation of the kind we arc speaking of, that is to be carried on in the vicinity of coal and iron mines, and which advantage excepts the Cilium Min ing Company from the general scope of our remarks : we advert to this circunastanca, because we know, from the authority of one who left Colombia within the last twelve months, that, previous to his departure, iron was selling in the principal towns in that State, at a price ex ceeding one dialing. per lb., and, consequently. the superior advantage which those mines must possess, which are con tiguous to iron and coal, are manifest. We believe a Peruvian mine speculation has either just started, or is about to start ; and so long as the drafts on public credulity are duly honoured, so long, we may be sure, will they continue to be drawn. We have much more to say on this prolific subject, and shall bring it again under the public attention in a day or two. There were but trifling fluctuations in the Stock Market yesterday: Consols opened, for money, at 94 ; they went down to 934, and closed at 944. The time prices during the day were 914 HI. The Mines were very heavy in the early part of the day ; towards the conclusion of the market they improved in a trifling degree. No less than twelve Hatnburgh mails are now due, to the great inconvenience of merchants who correspond with the north of Europe, and who trust solely to the Hamburgh packets for the transmission of their letters. Letters were yesterday received from Mexico, dated the 30th of November :—They state that tranquillity continued in all the Provinces, and that business was improving. These letters are silent as to the battle said to have been fought subsequent to that of Junin. RIO JANEIRO.—By the ship Hope, Captain Dungan, arrived at this port on Saturday in torty-six days from Rio Janeiro, we have a continuation of unfavourable accouuts respecting the state of the markets there. The ship At lantic, of Norfolk, arrived on the 23d October, with 3.000 barrels flour, which could not be sold; the brig Belvidera, of Philadelphia, via Pernambuco, with 1,300 barrels of flour, seeking for a market; the ship Liverpool, on the 24th October, from Norfolk, with 3,500 barrels, landing: ship Hamlet, from Norfolk, on the 31st, with 3,000 bar rels. These are in addition to the vessels and cargoes re ported by the Robert at this port; besides, there were seve ral large cargoes daily expected from the United States, some parcels from Liverpool, and wheat from Antwerp. T here were in store two cargoes of wheat, about 6,000 bar rels Hamburg!' flour, and 4 or 5,000 barrels of ether flour, the price about six inilrcas, long credit. The port of Rio was also overstocked with wings and brandies.—Ballimore Paper. The Society for Promotink Christian Knowledge dis tributed in the last ten years 1,034,000 Bibles and Testa ments, and nearly two millions of Common Prayer and °tiler religious bound books.

Stl..: its estimate for the p - resent year is 213,775/., of which 15,5001. will be by grant from Parliament. After the Lecture, on Wednesday evening, at the Me chanics' Institution, the President (Dr. Birkbeck) read a letter from Sir Francis Burdett to the Institution, in which the worthy Baronet observed, that he considered it (die Mechanics' Institution) the best calculated to advance the condition of the people—the working classes—of anything that had been hit upon up to the present time, and con cluded by directing his name to be put down for 1,0001. The Baronet presence-1 1001. to the Institution on a previous occasion. A meeting took place late on Saturday evening week, on the bowling-green at the back of the Derby Arms, in Macclesfield, between an officer in his Majesty's service, to wit, an exciseman, and a gentleman following the calling of a silk- throwsttr. The dispute arose out of some want of courtesy on the part of the gauger towards the landlady of the inn, which was indignantly resented by the sqft silk man. The preliminaries were instantly arranged—the marking irons procured, and loaded with ball, and, by the light of the moon, these truculent worthies took their stations for the laudable purpose of blowing each other's brains out (if they had any). The seconds, however, to prevent the possibility of such a catastrophe, bad pru dently abstracted the balls. The heroes fired, and of course missed; the matter was then accommodated, and the par ties retired from the ground, with their honour untarnished and their faces tnarvellously blanched by the contemplation of the serious consequences that might have ensued. On Thursday last Mr. Flanagan, of Sligo, attended a bench of Magistrates, held at Ardee, and having com plained in strong terms that a licence was refused to a publican, named Owen M'Kittrick, he pledged himself to have a criminal information filed against the Magistrates of the county of Louth, for refusing said licence. Mr. Fla nagan was immediately ordered into the custody of the Sheriff, and an order was made to have him committed to the gaol of the county for one month ! Lord Roden was one of the Magistrates on the bench.—Dub/in Morning Post. We are credibly informed, that in the course of the month of Decembi r last a greater quantity of grain has been shipped at this port than during any former season. This may in a great measure be attributed to the increasing demand of the licensed distillers for barley, in consequence of the judicious modification of the duty on spirits.— Mentrsse Chronicle. HynaoPHOßlA.—(From the Liverpool Courier of Wed. nesday.)—A melancholy case of death from hydrophobia occurred in this town last week. A short time ago the dog in a respectable family alarmed the house by making a ♦ery disagreeable noise in the. course of the night. The mistress arose front her bed, proceeded down stairs, and attempted to pacify the animal, but he sprang at her, and attempted to bite her, happily, however, without effecting his object. Her son came to her assistance, but the dog seized hold on him, and bit him severely in the hand. His brother and a youth, who came to aid the others, were also bitten in several places by the infuriated animal. Assistance was obtained from the street, and the dog was finally accused, anti put into a bag, in which he was found, shortly afterwards, dead. All the individuals pro ceeded the same night to a surgeon, who cut out the places where the dog had lacerated them, the parts healed up, and the matter was forgotten. Oa Wednesday last, how ever, the person alto had been first bitten was seized with indisposition ; symptoms of hydrophobia speedily mani fested themselves, and the unfortunate man, notwithstand ing all the remedies employed by his medical attendants, expired on Friday night. On Sunday last, Jean Annan, and old woman who lived in the village of l'itlessie, Fifeshire, in a house by herself, having fai:ed to make her appearance at the usual time, her neighbours broke open her door, and, dreadful to relate, found her body lying on the hearth, burnt in the most shocking manner. It is supposed that she had fallen upon the fire, and bad not been able to extinguish t'•_ flames.

A second frigate, the A "de, entered the Tagus the 21st of De cember, but rte Captain, instead of asking orders of the Ambassa dor respecting his departure, after receiving private instrucims, declared he was going to sail for the purpose of taking in at Coruata a convoy of discharges! soldiers. " We can easily imagine that the. inertness of the French 31inirty encourages and increases the boldness of the British An.bassacto. We know fur a fort, that in the latter days of December, the lin gliab Ambassador, Sir William A'Court, signified to the Kitg, what it is impossible to call any thing else but a command, that he should dismiss within three days, the Count de Subserra, MiniseT of War, the only Portuguese Minister who was attached to the interest of France.

When Brazil opens a loan the principal subsaitir are to he found at Lisbon. It is the gold of Portugal that nour:sks and increases the independence of Brazil." The speedy arrival of Sir Charles Stuart, at Lisbon. is spoken of in that capital He resided many years at Paris, as Amithasstado the late King. He comes, it is said, for the purpose of dale log that England bas recognised the Lidependence of Emil, an I of inviting Portugal to do the same. It is added, that after ebtain'ng from Portugal the recognition commanded by his Government, he will repair to Brazil as Er.voy Extraordinary, and after a short st ty, he will visit the different Stater of South America. That finely, England renouncing those futile pretexts, which deceive ro penal, will not hesitate to recognise and proclaim aloud the complete in. dependence of the States of this vast continent.
