The Paris papers of Monday contain no mticles of much political iute-est. The reduction of the Rentcs appears for the moment to have been forgotten. Not an essay is there on that seemingly inexhaustible subject. The following are extracts from the Etude of Tuesday : The Augelssrg Gazette has the following letter : •' The news of the arrival of the Capitan Pacba at Modoe is con. firmed. On the td of July between three and four thousand Egyp. tian troops were landed at Nayarit)°, whence they set out without delay to hasten to the assistance of Ibrahim Paths, who is sur. rounded on all sides by the Greeks, In the interior of the Mores. . ~ Before '.II issulongbi the Turks do not-seem to have made any progress." PSEIN AUGUST & _ Letters from Venice say, on the 2Gth, after dinner the military authorities paid their r.:spects to the Emperor. At nine in the evening their Imperial 11ajestics the Duehessof Parma and theA dukes Fren:is Charles and Regnier, with their Contorts, honoured with their presence the great theatre of La renice, which was illu. miusted with the greatest magnificence. Aecoonts from Damascus say, that the financial measure of the Porte has excited a general commotion, the lirman, which puts out of circulation almost all kinds cf gold and silver coin, having been publishedlw4l3 a prohibition to buy in anycoin except sequins of It, 6, and 3 Tiaatees, and new piecesof 60 pares. It became known that the Sultan Ir.tentled to hare all the coins put out of circulation bought up, and to send an officer from COMltillni n4p!e for the purpose. All the magrztree were shut, and the people repaired to the Cali, whom they placed on a palanquin, to convey him to the Seraglio. Then by cries and threats of killing the Governor. and all the Authorities, unless the edict was re voked, the people got proclamations made, that all the kinds of eoia should remain in circulation till th2arrivrl of the treasure from Constantinople.

Much has been made of the delay which has occurred in completing the ratification on this side of the water; but it must be clear from the copy we extract from the Mexican journals, that no serious ground of difficulty can have arisen between the two couutries. The following is copied from a letter, dared-- Mratco, Jowl 11. Since the presentation by Mr. Ward of his credentials,, and his reception as British Charge d'Affaires, we have nothing new in polities, tor indeed in any thing else, if I except the arrival on the Bth inst. at the Mint, in this city, of the first conducts (convoy) of silver from the Valevelers mine. It is sent here to be coined. The papers by the April packet have brought us Mr. Baring's speech ma the Mexican Mines. It is a pity that a man of Mr. amilles standing In the world should speak se loosely. It was an add, es incidence, that Mr. Bering's denouncement of mining as • men bubble, should wise here just about the same day as the first •t. rival of silver from the mines. No member of the British Home of Commoni would speak as this gentleman did, if he knew the be nefit that the mining districts of this country are at this moment of time receiving from the setting if the mines to work, and the thousands of people who are honestly and usefully employed by them. Much benefit to the general interests of trade, arising out of the tranquillity and contentment of the working was expected from the repeal of the Cumbiaaasui haws. it h painful to observe how often, in the conduct of public affairs, the views of the most enlightened states men may be disappointed, and the best intentioned mea sures fail) completely of their effect. It is a most discour aging truth, that the soundest principles of political science arc not, in their operation, always the most salutary. The reason appears to be, that fu computing the quantity of good which such principles are fitted to produce, we do not take the bad passions of mankind into the account. In repealing the Combination Laws, for instance, it was na tural to look to the particular evils they occasioned, and to conclude that, removing what appeared to be their causes, was the best mode of providing effectually against them. The true principles of freedom, to what ever applied—whether to the freedom of Government, the freedom of trade, the freedom of labour, or whatever else-- must be, in themselves, essentially just ; but they do not, of themselves, guard against that turbulent selfishness which is the inherent malady of all ignorant minds; they look to the prosperity and equal welfare of the whole community, without taking into account that illegal force which is per petually usurping upon every relaxation of the authority. which holds it in check. We do not find fault with this. Freedom could never make its way, if every measure of general benefit were encumbered before-hand with every possible preservation against its abuse. The great interests of justice required that workmen should be protected against injury and oppression on the part of the masters ; the combination laws had put the former much more within the power, and placed them much more at the mercy of the latter than was consistent with that equal regard to their rights to which they were in fairness en titled. But no sooner were the impolitic enactments which fettered their industry removed—no sooner were all the vexatious restrictions on the wages of labour annulled, than they manifested a dispoitition the reverse of what could have been expected in return for this praiseworthy exer tion of Parliament in their behalf. They began themselves to adopt the combination system towards their employers, and to adopt it in its worst and most aggravated form, by forming Societies, raieing funds by weekly subscriptions, and, by means of agents, organising a system of union which should enable them in their respective trades to maintain a conflict with the master-manufacturers, for the purpose of effecting any object which they might be re solved to carry. The London journeymen, in several trades, have lately submitted to their employers their in tention of working only three days in the week; but find ing the earnings of three days' labour insufficient for the maintenance of their families, they have combined for a rise of wages. Dublin is at this moment suffering under these com binations to an alarming extent. Its progress is, indeed, so wide sod rapid, as to threaten the most alarming con sequences throughout the whole of the United King dom. That it should break forth into scenes of such desperate outrage as at Sunderland, was a result to be expected. It is the natural course which such conspiracies take to accomplish their end. And it is on this that the guilt and mischief of these " Union Societies" consist. Although the determination to effect a certain purpose originates only with a few, they arc enabled to act upon all who are placed in the same common situation, by persuading them that their interests are all alike at stake ; and thus all the members are one by one seduced to act in concert, till the numbers destroy the sense of individual guilt; and in this state of mutual excitement, they are prepared to go any lengths to which the ignorance or ma lignity of their leaders may carry them. To put a stop to this destructive system of combination requires a difference of process, according to the principle from which it proceeds. That which proceeds from a spirit of exaction and mutiny demands the prompt and in flexible coercion of criminal justice; that which proceeds from erroneous views and , misguided feeling may be Jeasone,d, with: but the remedy admits of no compromise in either case; it is fit that those who are in error should be informed, but in the mean time the manufacturing ca pitalists must be secured in their property ; the law and the local magistracy must secure this point first—the rest is matter of after-arrangement. Too much pains cannot be taken to instruct the working classes in the first and leading principles of political econo my, and to familiarise them with the maxims of strict justice and sound policy which those principles involve. Nothing can be more fetal than that they should consider themselves as placed in a state of competition and conflict of interests with those in whose service they labour, and at whose hands their labour must seek its reward. They may not be able to discover in what the peddle good consists, but they have generally plain good sense enough—when not misled, to see in what their own good consists, and if they have but common integrity to pursue it, they have all that is required. At present, they are reversing all the natural order of that manufacturing prosperity in which their in (loamy, and on which, therefore, their whole stake lies; can find its reward ; for in proportion as their combinations strengthen, in the same proportion will capital be with drawn from employment, and the whole weight of the evil will in the cud fall upon themselves. CITY, WEDNESDAY EVENING. Compared with what has been doing in the Consols Market for the last two or three days, the business there to-day was extensive, and the consequence of it was a de cline in prices, for some heavy sales were accomplished by some eminent brokers, which led to the report that partks were anxious to realise toiler the espects.tien that the British Funds `would decline before the settling day in them. Ccnsols for the Account opened at 901, and for a I short time they retrograded to 90. However, a slight re action took place, and they returned to ii. For Money, after opening at 90e, they went down to 891', and afterwards got back to their opening quotation; bat still the market had a heavy appearance. In the Foreign Market, French Rentee, u far as bargain s in them go, continue a dead letter. Certainly if conver sation respecting them would create business, there would be more transactions in them than in all other Stocks united ; but it is still only gossip, and the offspring of that gossip is, that a price of 78; is mentioned for the Account' Colombian Bonds remained firm at 841, but Mexican Scrip was languid at Si f discount. Spanish Bonds were held firmly at yesterday's quotations, and Greek Scrip 2113 remained stationary. The business in the Share Market was rather more extensive• than yesterday or Monday, but the principal alteration in it was in Rock Salt Shares, that reached 9 pre mium. AnFlo-Alexican and United Mexican Shares were at yesterday s prices. There were inquiries for Pasco-Pe ruvian Shares at 12j 13, and for those of the General Mining Association at 7 8. We have no further observations to make with respect to Sugar to-day than that, in consequence of holders not being over desirous of selling, lower prices have not been sub mitted to. Coffee and Rum remain steady. The letters by the Lisbon packet that arrived yesterday bang no political news. Lisbon Gayeties to OW Slat July arrived yesterday. They are, as usual, nearly filled with extracts from fo- I reign journals. Accountif had been received at Oporto from Rio Janeiro, dated the 18th of May, and from Ma ranhatn, dated June 7, at which periods every thing was perfectly tranquil. Letters from Rio Janeiro say, that on the 23th May 82 Spanish officers arrived there from the late army of Peru, viz.:-1 Brigadier-General. 8 Lieutenant-Colonels, 1$ Captains, 23 Lieutenants, and 33 Ensigns ; total 82. Letters from Trieste, dated the 26th ult. state that the accounts from Greece were favourable. The communication between the Paella and his fleet was so completely cut off, that several of his despatches had been intercepted. The letters also mention the arrival of the first merchant ship into Trieste under the new Acts of Parliament relative to the intercourse between the English colonies and foreign countries. A merchantman hid arrived direct from Ja maica, with 400 casks of coffee, besides other produce. The Austrian Observer treats the rumoured project for making the on of the Ex-King of Sweden King of Greece, with the utmost contempt. The Milan Gazette of the 27th of July has been re ceived. It contains no intelligence of interest, and i almost wholly filled with minute details of the tour of the Emperor and Empress of Austria through the north of Italy. Extract of a letter dated Liverpool, Aug. B.—" The highly respectable house of Crowder, Clough, and Co. have suspended their payments to-day. They are sup posed to hold, besides other produce, 14,000 or 15,000 bags of cotton. A great gloom has been thrown over the cotton market in consequence." Two supplements to the London Gazette were published yesterday. The first contains an Order in Council, dated July 19, consisting of nearly fourteen pages, for regulating the due performance of quarantine, in pursuance of the Act passed during the last Session of Parliament. The second supplement, which is short, contains despatches from Sir Archibald Campbell, dated Rangoon, February 11 ; from Colonel Godwin, dated Rangoon, February 9; and from Lieutenant-Colonel Hampton, dated Cheduba, February 8. The particulars of these transactions have been already published halm the Calcutta papery. Yesterday afternoon, about two o'clock, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge left town in their travelling car riage and four for Claremont, on a visit to Prince Leopold. The Duke and Duckess of Cambridge bad a select party to dinner on Tuesday. In the evening their Royal High nesses honoured the Haymarket Theatre with their pre sence. Mr. Secretary Canning is staving on a visit to Mr. Bol ton at his residence near Windermere 'Lake. The Right Hon. Gentleman, on his way from Cheltenham, visited Mr. Littleton, at his residence, Teddesley Park, Stafford shire, and also paid a visit to Mr. Stuart IVortley, at his seat Wortley Hall, Yorkshire. The French Ambassador and suite went on Tuesday to view the exhibition of the French living skeleton in Pall mall. About five hundred persons attended the exhibition in the course of the day, among them were the Marquis of Hertford and a number of persons of distinction. We are sorry to announce the death of Mr. Sergeant Lens, which took place on Saturday, at Ryde, in the he of Wight, whither he had gone for the benefit of his health. Sergeant Lens was an able lawyer, a man of inflexible in tegrity, and much esteemed for his amiable manners in private life. STIPENDIARY MAGHTRATR OF MANCIIIESTFR.—In consequence of the vacancy occasioned in this situation by the melancholy death of Mr. Fell, Mr. Foster, of Man chester, and Mr. Hall, of Laverpool, are candidates for the of Both gentlemen, we understand, have arrived in town for the purpose of laying their pretensions before Lord Bexley, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, with whom the patronage of the appointment rests. CORK MECHANICS . INsrtrute.--The progress made by our Mechanics' Institute, in bringing its different branches of usefulness into operation, is we believe unpre cedented in the annals of these establishments, of the utility of which, and their effects on society in general, we said so much in its earlier stages as to render needless now a repetition of our conviction on the subject ; but we cannot resist communicating to our readers a portion of the gratification which we experienced on paying it lately 1, an evening visit. We must all recollect that it is only six months since the subject began to attract public attention. l , Its library now consists of nearly 700 volumes, among, which are the newest and most approved works on science and art ; nor has useful biography and the classical pro ductions of our most esteemed writers been disregarded. But the gratification which we experienced frotn the re spectable appeatattce of ths.lolrary is sot to be compared with our feelings, while contemzlatingfrom forty to fifty most attentive readers, chiefly, if not exclusively, of the mechanical class, the strictest order and most profound silence being observed ; and this, we were assured, was but a repetition of the same scene which takes place every evening, while a daily augmentation is making to the number of mcmhers.---Cork Southern Reporter. There is now in the London Docks, on board the Jones, Captain Richardson, from New Orleans, an alligator near four feet long, and which it is supposed will arrive at thrice its present dimensions. It is about seven months old, and was caught on the banks of the Mississippi. All attempts to tame or render it docile have proved in vain ; and on its being disturbed, by approaching the cage in which it is confined, it makes a noise, and appears eager to commence an attack. It is to be removed to the menagery in the 'fewer. Knavesmire afforded a rather novel spectacle last Sunday afternoon. It is customary with great numbers of the in habitants of the city to walk there on the Sunday preced ing the races, for the purpose of seeing the horses which are to compete for the prizes during the week. And on this occasion the assemblage were surprised by the appear ance' of James Backhouse, of this city, a most re spectable member of the Society of Friends, who, accom panied by two others, took his station immediately in front of the tents, and proceeded to address the multitude on the iniquity of the frivolities in which they were engaged, and to call their attention to the weightier concerns of eternity. Whatever impression this well-meant discourse might have upon the parties to whom it was addressed, the important period to which the speaker alluded must determine. We are glad, however, to learn that it was listened to with de corum, and that no insult was offered to the worthy gen tleman, who shortly afterwards retired from the ground, with his friends, doubtless enjoying that peace in his own mind, which would result from the reflection having done his duty.—York Courant, THE FREERS. EETRAET OF A LETTER !RO M E A N T E, DATED IIiLT 8. When M. de Rigny went to visit Ibrahim Pacha at Nisi, that barbarian chief had just burnt the villages of Philippaki, Dgi. dgiori, Petalidi, Arthentico, Critelli, Vonnarla, Ballads, twenty two Imiskias, and the little town of Calament, an open and unde fended place. The Smyrna Journal, called the Spectator, who had pointed out Gregory, Bishop of Motion to the sword of the ferocious Paella, has just been satisfied. That Prelate has pe rished amidst the greatest torments, in spite of the capitulation of Navarino, which garanteed him his liberty, as well as to seventeen other superior officers comprehended in that treaty. It is probable that these honourable victims have since than perished by the hands of the executioner. _ . The number of women, children, and old men, Christians of the Peloponnesus, who were murdered or executed o .y the Egyptians, iti from the Bth to the 12th ofne, amounted to 6,0. The damage they have caused in the plain of EaWiliam may be estimated at I fifteen millions of francs. Every tree is hung with monks, priests, and old men. A number of the villains were employed in salting the heads, which were to be sent to Constantinople. KAM, NEAR LONRARf. Ibrahim Pacha distributed a number of young girls among the European o ffi cers, who bare disciplined. an d who lead his infernal bands; these renegades have changed their names for Turkish ones, are habited in the Oriental costume, and evince particular pleasure in burning down the churches. ..Ivl.lr 10. The martyr of the Convent dedicated to the Virgin, situated in Mount Aracynthe, is here a subject of admiration to the faithful. This old man having been conducted by the Turks before the tri. bunal of Itoutchid Pacha was asked his name ; he answered Ambrosius.—Your country ?—The monastery of the most holy mother of God —Thy dwelling ?—The rocks sine* the monastery has been destroyed by your soldiers, and soon it will be heaven, he added, in kissing the cross he earned.—What have vou done with the sacred vases of your church ?—I have hidden then from the pollution of your soldiers.—Where are they ?—That is the secret of my conscience.—Answer ?—Thou mayest burn my limbs, but my soul belongs to God. The torture was immediately inflicted on him, and his flesh was torn from his hones ; but he was only heard to cry out these words—" Kyrk deism." I. e." Lord have pity on me." Pointed reeds were driven under his nails; but the martyr glorified his God, and was empaled in sight of the trenches of blissolonglii, on the 12th June. JULY 12. . . _ _ We hear that the barbarians have been beaten at I,erna; t hat General Roche has revived the courage of the Christians, and is covering himself with glory by the patience, firmness, and the wisdom of his counsels; his name will be for ever clear to the Greeks. There are more than a hundred Austrian. Sardinian, and Russian transports in the service of the Pacha of Egypt. and the Ottoman Porte, which convey all necessaries to the enemies of the Christiana; they are even escorted by vessels of war, which pre vents the Greeks capturing them. TREATY WITII MEXICO. We have received a copy of the Treaty concluded be tween Great Britain and the United Mexican States, and ratified by the Congress of the latter Power. It appears from the Mexican Papers which we have received with the Treaty, that the difficulties thrown in the way of the rati fication were chiefly created by the fanatical party. The Treaty, which is one of peace and amity, agrees in so many points with those with the States of La Plata and the Republic of Colombia, which we have already pub lished, that of most of its articles (which are in all Is, ex clusive of an additional one), it is only necessary for us to give an abstract. The Ist Art. The usual provision for lasting amity. Id. Provides for a free intercourse and commerce between the subjects and dominions of the two parties, as in the Colombian Treaty. An exception is made of the coasting trade. . 3d. Stipulates that the Mexicans shall trade u well with the dominions of the King of Great Britain out of Europe, as those in Europe, to the utmost extent now permitted to any other nation. dth. As in the Colombian Treaty, is a stipulation for the same duties on the produce of each nation in the ports of the other, as are now paid or to be paid by the most favoured nation, with an exception by Mexico in favour of the other new American states. 6th. The duties on tonnage, lighthouse, and port charges, to be comprehended in the foregoing article. 6th. The vessels of the two nations reciprocally to be on the foot ing as to import and export duties in the ports of each other, of the most favoured nation. 7th. Determines what vessels shall be considered British and Mexican ; British, all that are so registered—Mexican, whatever vessels have been built in the Mexican States, or nationalized E.- ' cording to law, and whose Master or Captain shall be a Mexican horn or naturalized, and three-fourths of whose crews shall have been admitted to the service with the knowledge of the Govern menr. This definition of what constitutes a Mexican vessel is to subsist only for ten years. Bth Article.—Mexican individuals, embarked MI beard hia ttri. tannic Majesty's ships of war. as well as Mexican effects and pro , perty received in them, shall be covered and protected by the flag of his Britannic Majesty. Mexican persons, property, and goods, embarked in British trading vessels, shall be covered and protected by that flag in the same manner as person and property of the most favoured nation. The persons and property of British subjects shall enjoy the same protection in Mexican ships of war or trading vessels. The Mexican flag shall enjoy in time of peace. as well as war, the same rights and privileges as his Britannic Majesty has granted, or may hereafter grant. to the most favoured nation. The vessels of either Contracting party shall not be seized or detained in the dominions of the other military service, without sufficient in. deninification. Art. U. Corresponds to the Bth of the Colombian treaty, is a stipulation for the right of the subjects of each party to transact their business in the States of the other, whether on their own ac. count, or as brokers, agents, factors. &c. Art. 10th. Provision as in the Colombian treaty, as to the pro. perty bequeathed by will, and that of intestates being subjects of one State, in the dominions of the other. Art. 11th. An exemption from compulsory military service. ex traordinary contributions, and requisitions.

INDIA. PROCLAMATION Sy BRIGADIER•DENERAL SIR ARCHIRALD CAMPBELL, AND C.C.T.S. COMMANDER Or THE ENGLISH ARMY IN THE DOMINIONS or THE RING OF AVA. INHABITANTS OF THE BURMAN EMPIRE! The English forces have come amongst you to seek re dress for the cruel murders and numerous insults your arrogant Court had the presumption to inflict upon, and offer. to the subjects of the British Government, in a time of profound peace. A great and generous nation, confident in its own strength, like that of the British Empire in India, tried every thing possible by mild and temperate expostulation to make your Court sensible of the enormity of its con duct, anti the inevitable consequence that a perseverance in it would occasion. These remonstrances tended only to increase the insolence of the Court of Ava. Recourse to arms was therefore the only measure left to the English, in support of their own rights and dignity. What that ap peal has already produced, it is unnecessary for me to say— you all know it. The bravery of my troops has already i deprived the Court of Ava of its maritime provinces of Mergui, 'l'avoy, Yeh, Martaban, and the island of Che , duha. The ancient kingdom of Pegu has become a desert from the ravages of war. The most powerful armies, pos sible for your Court to get together, have been sent against us; we have dispersed them like chaff! Since the arrival of my force at Rangoon in the month of May last, we have at different periods taken from you more than seven hun dred pieces of artillery, and small arms too numerous to be counted, anti your loss in lives has been, as you all know, most enormous ; and with lots, on that account, I ltulamt the tears of aged parents, sisters, widows, and innocent , children. All this has been endured merely to support the 'folly and obstinacy of your Court, to whom our peaceable 'desires have been made known. Yet, it still abtains from loffering any reparation for the wanton cruelties and unpro voked injuries I have already mentioned. It only, th ere . fore, remains for me to carry the victorious English arms not only to your capital, but to the remotest parts of your kingdom, till your Court is brought to a proper sense of that justice, honour, and policy, due from one neighbour. ing state to another. Having thus briefly explained the cause of our corning •in rums amongst you, you will see and fully understand that to your own King and Government alone have you to attribute all the past calamities of the war, and such as may still ensue from its further progress. My most ant , ious desire is to alleviate these miseries towards the peace, able and innocent inhabitants, to the very utmost of my power. Show yourselves, therefore, deserving of that feel ing towards you by keeping, as we advance, yourselves, and your families, peaceably and quietly in your houses, and you may depend upon the most inviolable protection of your persons and property. Bring to my army such arti cles of the produce of your farms and industry as you wish to dispose of, every thing will be paid for with the most scrupulous fidelity. I ask you not to take up arms, or any part whatever in the war ; I have troops sufficient for ail the objects I have in view, without any further aid. May the spirit of your forefathers direct your hearts to follow the line of conduct I have laid down for your guidance, which will insure fcr you, as I have already promised, my fullest protection, and every respect to your religion and temples, &c. &c. Given under my hand and seal at Rangoon, the Ist day of Feb. 1823. (signed) A. CAMPBELL, B.G. Ice. be. . .„ The following is s literal translation of a curious core. iplimentary epistle just received by the 'Brigadier-Gencval from Siam, via Martaban. " The Chief of the Country of Zaky, of Lagoon and !I Jumtna ; the splendid hero and renowned warr i or o f great splendour, dignity and riches ; the Prince, the ruler over fifty-seven Provinces, possessed by my ancestors from th e remotest generations. The Lord and Chief of the nin e tribes of the Siamese people. The illustrious Prince poss easing the richest Throne in the East. The name of th second Chief is Berns, Agan Loom Vat. The name of the third, Shoom Zova Banzagan Lan Cheg. These three: Chiefs were present at Durbar, with three and thirty Wazeers, and being unanimous, having but one mind and one object, present this to his Excellency. " To the Governor over Sixty Tribes, and the Great Conqueror over Countries, the English Hero—the Chem. pion of the IVorld—the Tamer of Elephants—the General victorious over the Burmese—mild and merciful—the Leader of Leaders--the Inspirer of Bravery,—this request is written in the year of the Hegira, One Thousand One Hundred and Eighty-six. A year greater than seen by any of our ancestors. A year more auspicious than all former years. In which the Conqueror of Provinces, the English Hero, lby command of his King, came with an army to attack the Burmese, over whom he has been vic torious ; who lies not molested the inhabitants ; but has permitted the poor to remain in their dwellings. This in telligence having reached us, diffused general joy. We have likewise heard that many Wazeers and Burmese sol diers have been sent to the regions of death by the invin. cible warriors. The English Hero, who is seated on a throne, and is exceeding beneficent, has ordered that nei ther vexation nor trouble is to be given to the people re maining in their houses. Against your power no enemy can draw an arrow. The poor and the cultivators in )our prosperity find ease. Further, we are of opinion that if you continue fighting after this manner for one year, or one month, neither the name nor vestige of the Burmese will remain. Then will the poor in tranquillity pass their lives, and then the name of their merciless enAnie3 will be obliterated. We are likewise persuaded that to the people living under the shadow of the standard of your clemency, not even a cause of trouble can arise. 'Fite great Chief Leeagat, the second Bungan Khoon, the third Bungsa Khasan Cheydoo Ghom Thuham. The Chief of the countries of Labocm and Jamaz, all being assembled and being unanimous, and having but MIC mind and one object, I have described it to the great English hero and cot. queror, and I wish to be infotmeti of your circumstances and every wish in your mind. This request is addressed to the presence of the illustrious enthroned English Con queror. ' COURT-MARTIAL ON A SERGEANT'S WIFE. head-Quarters, Calcutta, Bth Feb. 1825. At an European General Court-Martial assembled at Saugor, on the 19th January, 1825, of which Major Shaw, of the Artillery, is President, Marth a Stevens. camp-follower, was arraigned upon She undermentioned charge. vie.:— •' With having on the 14th November, 1824, at Saugor, wilfully murdered Sergeant James Stevens, her reputed husband, by stab. bins him with a knife, of which he died." Upon which charge the Court came to the following decision :-.- FINDING AND SENTENCE.—" The Court havirg duly weighed the evidence for the prosecution, together with wl.at the prisoner has urged in her deferce, is of opinion that she is no• guilty of murder, but finds her guilty of manslaughter, and sentences her, Martha Stevens, to suffer ten months imprisonment " Confirmed. EDWARD PAGET, General, Commander-in-Chief in India. The Officer commanding the Saugor division of the army is di rected to send the prisoner, Martha Stevtni, dowr, in custoiy, to the gaol at Calcutta. BOLIVAR. Strange as it may appear, we have as yet no authentic connected account of the private and personal history of a man who has had few equals in modern time, whether we regard his great skill and valour in the field, or his acute ness, tact, and wisdom in the senate. But now that the din of arms has ceased, we trust that this desideratum will soon be supplied, and in the mean time, we may mention a fact which seems to have escaped the notice of all his biographers. While living in Kingston lie applied him self unremittingly to the study of European tactics, and though absent, unwillingly absent. for a time, from the scene of action, was constantly employed in committing to ' paper the plans of battles, which lie afterwards so success ; fully reduced to practice. In particular, he eagerly em braced every oppo r tu n i t y o f watching the manoeuvres of the troops about Kingston ; and such was his enthusiasm and mental abstraction, that lie was frequently seen stand ing in the front of the line, unconsciously acting tle pan of fugletnan. This circumstance, together with his con stant appearance on the drill-ground, naturally attracted the attention of the commanding officer, who having learnt the character and quality of the stranger, very obli gingly ordered his men to repeat occasionally some of thew movements in which Bolivar took the greatest interest. Short as his residence in the island was, he added much to his previous stock of military knowledge; and when Morillo next met him in the field, he found lie had a now enemy to contend with, and the Liberator is candid enou;:h to ascribe much of his subsequent good fortune to his ac cidental visit to Jamaica. Though it was his wish to pre serve the strictest incognito, he received attentions hem all who value the brava assertors of a righteous cause, and that, too, in defiance of the feelings of the constituted au thorities, who, at the period of time to which we refer. worn anything but friendly to the rising liberties of the American States. On leaving La Guayra, Bolivar wall dressed in the uniform of a General, and wore enormously large mustachios; but before he had been many hours at sea, he divested his face wholly of hair, and dressed him' self in a suit of plain clothes--a proceeding which pro duced such a change in his appearance, that the wonderirg sailors entertained doubt as to his personal identity. hi fact, their feelings of admiration had so far subsided, that on landing their passengers safely at Kingston, a quirt wittml Irishman replied to a gentleman who was an:clove to gain a peep at ISolivar, and who being disappointed in this, began to inquire how he looked—" Why, faith, 11 to that, it is hard to say ; for when he came on board 171 looked just as fierce as the Grand Turk himself, and DO you would take him for naught but a barber or a tailor' apprentice." —Dum fries Courier. NORWICH A Ponv.—The Committee fi r carrying into effect this desirable improvement have received a Repent from Captain George Nicholls, a gentleman of the ti/ 11 eminence, who has stated as his opinion, '• that a safe and convenient communication may be formed as proposed " vessels of 100 or 1.10 tons burden between Lake Lathing and the sea at Lowestoft ;" and he adds, " I do not fitd any reason to apprehend that such communication wi hereafter be blacked up or impeded, or that any i Iflun t6 effects will ensue from it, either to the navigation along the coot or to the flat country without it",--Beiffq cg(4lf.
