She left elms on t►e 3.1 of December, Valparaiso the 20th of January, passed Cape Horn the 15th of February. and sailed from Rio the 23d of March.

His Lord ship's health was improving. The American ship Franklin, SO, Commodore Stewart, had passed round Cape Horn, to join the Constellation frigate, at Val paraiso, and protect their trade in that quarter, which was quite as extensive as that of the English met chants. The French have also rapidly growing mer cantile interests in South America and the Brasilia, territory; the Clotitide frigate, 60, had gone round Cape Horn; the Amason frigate, a corvette, a brig, and a schooner, were stationed at Rio. Not less than Adykees have been received this moraine from Con stantinople to the 23th ■lt. Their contents are im portant in the highest degree, as they bring intelli gence of the Porte having made those concession* which must, lead to the differences hrtwern that P.ieer and Russia being amicably adjusted.

It appears from the statement in the 15 &ions! In telligences, that tie •ramonr of the Emperor of Ras. sia having derided Hie question in oar favour, respect ing the restitution of slaves taken by the tiritiab during the last war. is incorrect. One last accounts from St. Petersburg on that subject, merely stated that the dis cussions had terminated, and that the proceedings had been laid before Alexander for his anal decision. Two Resolutions have been submitted to the House of Representvives instituting on enquiry as to the propriety of providing for the punishment of public defaulters, and also to eatablislt some more effectual means to collect monies, which had out been propeily recounted for, and to secure the Govern ment from the dishonesty of their agents. The United Slates Bank remitted two millions of dollars, in the stoat of that Institution to England fur sale, upon the strength of which they are drawing Bills of Exchange at a premien. of 121 per cent. Paris papers, which have arrived to the 25th Instant, announce, in letters from St. Petersburg of the 30th ult., the arrival of bl. de Tatitscheff in that capital, and his immediate reception by the Emperor. He had been preceded, however, by his Secretary, who bad been dispatched are or six days before him with the result of the negociations carried on at Vienna. The British and Premien Ambassadors displayed great ac- 1 tirity, anti had frequent conferences with Counts Nes- 1 selrode and Capo &Istria. It was also rumoured that the Russian Emperor had been invited by the Emperor Francis to u new Congress, and that the Court of Vi- 1 enpa had 'proposed that England should act as umpire between Turkey and Russia. Yet preparations con tinued to be made for the departure of the Emperor Alex•nder, and his repairing to the armv.—The Con siltation:lel gives several letters from Bayonne, (to which at the same time it derlarrs that no credit should be attached), stating that an extraordinary courier had passed through that town on the I Stb, on his way from Madrid to Paris. and that it was reported he carried the importrat Dens of the Spanish capital being in full insurrection. The intelligence from Ma drid itself comes down to the 15th instant, and makes no mention of such an event, though they state that the Constitutionali,ts had published some violent pla cards against the Ministry. The hymn of Riegn, which has long been the rallying song of the Ultra Liberals in all parts of Spain, has now been declared by a Decree of the Cortes. sanctioned by the King " a national hymn." The volunteer National Guard of Ma drid, underwent an extraordinary review on the Prado, on the 12th inst. in order to hear the decree read.

This remarkable decision passed at nine in the evening. Col. Caul :axes, who had been condemned in his absence for the affair of Burgos, has been arrested at Madrid. He was preparing to set out for Castile, in order to or ganize a party. in concert with one of his accomplice*. who has also been arrested. Another individual has been incarcerated, just at the moment when he ar rived from Iran, by Aranjars.
