By the Jamaica Mail yesterday we received some important intelligence from Colombia. M. Chasseriau, the French Commissioner, has been obliged to leave the republic in consequence of the refusal of the Colombian authorities to receive him. The suspiciens of the new States, we are glad to find, arc awakened with respect to the conduct of France; and though the American Govern ! meats cannot absolutely exclude Frenchmen from their dominions, yet they will not facilitate the perfidious de !signs of the French agents, by investing them with a di plomatic character, until the views o 1 France are more clearly avowed as to the question of American indepen dence. The journals which are known to speak the senti- 1 1 metes of the Court of the Tuileries declare, that " the I French Government on this question isnot forgetful of the! interests of Spain." The most undisguised hostility is! everywhere, and on every occasion, manifested towards the new States by all the creatures and dependents of the, Holy Alliance. The mistake committed by those who argue that Franca will not aid an attempt to sub jugate the Spanish cclonics afresh to the mother coun try, consists i.t the assumption that the interests of the nation will prevail over the feeliees of the Court. If indeed public opiuion in France had acquired that strength and consistency which it has attained in Eng land, there would be sonic foundation for the argument of i these reason , rs. But this assumption is grew:Mess. The war against Spain was undertaken in contempt of the pub lic voice of France. An armament against Mexico or South America would in all probability be popular ; at least there would be no lack of a.A•enturers to embark for the second conquest of the New World. Though the evolution septa then latch• sent out to cruise in the Mediterranean may re turn to Brest, a.; was announced a week ago in the French papers, we see no reason therefore to disbelieve that the the Bourbons no longer hope to reign over the vast and rich provinces of their late empire in America. A plot so extensive must be some time in being matured; but when it is at length fully resolved to carry it into execution, we shah apin bare occasion to admire and regret the signer of the French Government. Have we forgotten that Louis XVIII., with his own lips, solemnly declared in the face, of Europe. that malevolence only could impute to bins any', ;tee ile de idgn in the formation of the cordon sanitaire, but a n:ontli Cr two before he changed that force into an army of observat:on, and announced front the same seat, that' 100,0e0 Fr, nehmen, headed by a eon of St. Louis, was about to march into Spain? The cordon sanitaire was not formed in a month, nor perhaps will an armament against America be prepared in a twelvemonth, but we have no doubt that it is contemplated. The French navy is ac quiring experience to enable the seamen to Cope with the hardy mariners in the service of the new republics. These, it must be admitted, are conjectures, but they appear to us to be so confirmed by concomitant dr curnstancts, that we arc afraid they arc too well founded.' As to the " secret instructions" to the spies of the Holy Alliance, which have been published in some journals, we regard them as silly fabrications. How can they have found their way into a newspaper effree? The " exult ing" declaration of the !':tile, which has been exultingly quoted in support of their authenticity, ought rather to prove the reverse. If they Were genuine, would it 110 k 'have been the interest of the French Government to have suppressed them ?

The letter of our Paris correspondent contains some ire= in:CS:VC and in ieortant observations on the recent removal of certain Prefects from tbeir respective departments, which is considers as affording additional proof of the counter resolutienary triumph, and of the prevailing influence of the Jesuits. The Ultra-Montaix party keep a register of every public functionary, and those who do notlentl them selves to their crone to overturn the present order of, things, and do not concur effectively In forwarding the re-orwemizatioo of the ecclesiastical regime, arc forthwith put under the ban. Nothing shun of the most devoted subserviency to their views will content these spititual pastors. This is sufficiently manifehteol by the dismission of the three Prefects, MM. SIMLOII, LISCOWIS, and A TIC EI.I kR, who certainly did not err on the eae of Übe rvfi.int ; but, on the contrary, bad given ample proofs of tiLeir w:rvility : but they were regarded as converts whose vial was not to he trusted. It had not been forgotten, that ir. the time of M. Menne they had been the advocates of treacration. They, besides, did not receive the sacra mental test with sufficient regularity ; they were not afilia tel with any congregation; they were not the panegyrists of SAINT BARTIIOIO,II.IV and the Inquisition. There vas in this wherewithal to expose them to the corrective resentment of that party who aim to vest in their own order 411 public employments of every description, and who will never rest satisfied until the Jesuits are all in all. It appears by the same letter, that the rumoured Ins provetnent in the King's health, thoneh not wholly un warranted, is the mere result of those fluctuations which the last struggles of mortality so frequently exhibit. A Li:ster applied between the shoulders rose, though uncx reetedly, and produced a temporary Food eißct. liut a mortification id said to be making such progress in the ex treefeies as utterly to preclude all hope er any favourable e'.ange. Even the alternations of hope already exefitl, here given no alight vexation to certain persona, who arc ting with eager impatience that tart great fern!, which is is put them in possession of power. The principal ad hetents of the Count D'ARTOIS have received, par avance, the congratulations of their friends, soine of whom have ass.ected the period of fifteen Sias as the utmost protraction of those hopes, which, at all events, cannot be far from th..ir accomplishment. The present Ministers, in' their turn, are exclusively occupied iii taking every pre-1 ,)ation necessary to the security of their places. Their si;t - ground of disquietude is the House or Peers; in which, on two important occasions, they lost the majority. M. V!LLELE had long had it in contemplation to creak a of Peers, by way of ensuring his future triumphs; but this measure, it was conceived, would shock the pre judices of the people simcwhat too much, and the pro jeet was, pro tempore, abandoned. Ile calculates, how ever, that the death of the King will enable him to carry ties measure ; and he has in conyquenee drawn up, con jenctly with the Count D'Aarots, n list of intentletVere at'ree ; and one of the first acts of this Prince, on his so. cession, will be the promulgation of the list of thole. who are to be elevated to the Peerage. Should any one (een tiutees our Correspondent) charge the Minister with a w.sli to shift the majority of the (lambir to his side, he w:e reply, " that lie has no such wisb, but that it is virtual that a new King, on coming to the throne, should ',lei to give some public testimony of his regard for those friends to whose set vices he has been greatly indebted." M. Viceees imagines that under this plausible pretext the creation of new peerages will be favourAly received in the, pub lic opinion. The intimate friends the Count Ir, A n rots approve this mode of menegetnent : they smile, how -ver, when they see M. Vi Let et: expecting himself to reap the fruits of a measure, the benefits of which they hope to reserve exclusively to themselves. jly private letters arrived in Paris from Spain, it appears " The day previous to the arrival of the Ilenegatio schooner et Carthaevns, the French frigate La flora sailed from that port, having en toa,tl 31. Chasseriau, the Agent from the Fzench Go vernment to tile Republic of Colombia. It appears he had been refused a paacpatt from the authorities of Carthagena to proceed to flogoca ; he therefore relinquished his diplomatic mission. There are, however, sever .1 Frer.ch gentlemen throughout the Republic who are ostensibly naturalists, and appear to be engaged in scien tific pursuits. They ere supposed to have comtnissians, which they will produce as circumstance+ may require, or the preent sus picions al,-ainst France bec. , lne mitigated." The particulars contained in the lunaica Papers relative to the Execution of the insurgent negrocs, have no room for doubt that the crimes and confusion in that island have :triscn from the mischievous delusions spread among the .laves respect:n7 their manumission by the King. In ad dition to the extracts we give In another column from the Papers, we suljoin the following passage from a private letter rec,ived by the mail yesterday from an eminent merchant residing at Kingston : " You will sce by the Parcrs that the twelve unfortunate wretches who were concerned in the last mutiny have been executed. This is the first biotic! that Wilberforce and his party have to account for; but I fear It will not be the last. We are, seemingly, all quite quiet at present ; but the minds of the slave population have been so unsettled the principles carefully disseminated among gieiu by that party, that we may won expect a repctitiun of mutiny and bloodshed." therto anaernntably withheld from them, would be paid' up This daN." Our readers will, of course, take ft for granted, that the Editor of this paper expressed his regret!, for having given currency to the folly and calumny he bad written respecting this trifling delay. They will, 1 : perhaps, expect that he humbled himself in sackcloth and ashes, ar.d asked pardon for his sins. Quite other wise, however, was his conduct. lie persiced in as crating to the . King's Ministers an intention of die continuing their allowances to the exiles, and took credit to himself that he terrified them out of this design ! This is a fair spccitnen of the mode of vilifying public au thorities. If something be not done preciseiy at the moment when a Whig journalist thinks it ought to be done, he directly heaps upon the Government every variety of scandalous imputation wide' his ingenuity can invent. If the thing he done afterwards, lie dilates on the importance of the press in controlling the a gen ts of power, and intimates that he compelled them to shrink into com pliance with his directions ; if the thing be not done at all, be enlarges on the profligate contempt manifested for public opinion, and predicts the establishment of a military des-1 potism. In another column we have given, from an Even ing Paper, a correct statement of facts relative to the allow ances granted by his 'Majesty's Goa tOnment to the Spanish refugees, and we trust after this notice that these unfor tunate persons will, for their own sakes, in future avoid the advocacy of men who take up their cause only sp a God send to calumniate the Ministry, knowing as they well do at the same time, that if the work of charity be abandoned by Government, there is no other belly by whom it can ce will be continued for a week.

Secretary Canning, did not leave town on Wetince day, on his visit to the Lord Lieutensaat of Ireland. He will not depart till to-morrow. The Right Honourable Gentleman transacted business yesterday at the Fo reign Mee in Downing-street, and returnell in the tvcifng to Gloucester Lodge. in the morning he gave audience to the suite of their late Sandwich Majesties, re vions to their return to Woahoo. Yesterday, about one o'clock, Madame Pol:i. with her I husband, and the rest of the suite of their late Sandwich Majesties, arrived at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, in two carrizges, for file purpose of taking leave of Mr. Secretary Canning, previous to then departure on Tuesday next, in the Blonde frigate. They were all dress. din the' European costume, and in tle.p mourning. In order to save the party the trouble of proceeding to Gloucester Lodge, to take leave of Mrs. Canning, that lady kindly came to town, and received them, a mark of attention which seemed highly gratifying to those unfortunate strangers, who appeared to be much affected on taking leave of Mr. and Mrs. Canning, by whom they bad been so hospitably entertained, and who condoled with them on the loss they ha I sustained. Despatches were yesterday received at the Colonial Of fice, front Jamaica, dated the :Id of August; and from Barbadocs of the 39th July, at which periods all was tran quil in both colonies. Advicea were received yesterday by several arrivals from dill's:rent parts of of America, a few days later than the date of the last accounts, but they. add nothing to the intelli gence already before the public. • ENGLISH orERA-HOUSE. _ meet _ The thirty-eighth roresentation of Der reeisehutx took place last night at .his theatre. The frequent repetition of the piece, and the unabated interest which it still arrears to excite, speak most powerfully in favour of its montand its popularity. Neither has the manager been deficient in professional tact upon the occasion. Well knowing that a feast may pall upon the appetite from its edinenesa and want of variety, he Las judiciously altered the minis ters of the musical banquet. By this proceeding he has given an additional Lin to the entertainment, and the complaints of tog/ours predrie cannot be made by his audience. Thus we have had the part of Agnes first !represented by Miss Noel, whose gentle emotion u.sde room for Miss Stephens ; and when the notes of this syren have made their due impression, she makes her graceful exit, and is succeeded with equal effect by Miss Paton.— It cannot, therefore, be a matter of astonishment, that a, picee thus skilfully gal ep, with its principal fe male character sustained by almost all the delightful ' vocal talent of the stage, shoeld command the appro bation of the public, •and enjoy a greater degree of favour than has been bestowed upon any similar produc tion of the present day. The good sense of the manager, in this scilicet, lies hail a powerful auxiliary in the wild and interesting genius of the author. The object of Ger man music is, as far as we can form an opinion, like that of their dramatic performances—chiefly effiet ; and though the means may be sometimes, perhaps, fantastic and unna tural, the end of the con - poster (whctleT dramatic or musical)) is generally attained, and he almost invariably makes his', way though Ilia mode may not be perfectly legitimate or consistent with sound taste, to the heart, and commands the intense attention of his auditor or reader. The overture to the piece seemed to excite as muds interest, and drew down as much applause, as if it had been per- I formed for the first time ; and though its transitions may i perhaps he coesidered as rather numerous end abrupt, tt I must be felt to be a delightful composition, and will long re main a monument of the singular genius of the compeser.

Yus'crdav we received the Rinile of Wedr.esday, the other Paris payers of Tuesday. The fetowinz arc extracts:— In the year 11.26 a great and daugrrour quarrel happened between the Duke of Gloucester, the Protector of Eng land during the minority of Min.! VI. and the haughty Bishop of Winchester (Cardinal Beaufort), his uncle, and great uncle to the King, which had like to have involved the whole nation in blood. _ - ..... The Protector having received intelligence of the Ri ▪ s design to surprise the city of London in the night of the Lord Mayor's day. when the citizens were engaged ii! o banque dug and rejoicing in honeur of their new ma gistrate, be sent for the Mayor, and strictly enjoined him, for the safety of the city, immediately to raise such a hotly of citizer.s, as were sufficient to baffle all the attempts that, should he made e.gainst th sot. This information seen ap peared to be well grounded : for the next morning a great number of the Bishop's faction muleavoured to enter the city from Set' thwark. by the Wee ; and, being denied admittance, were so highly enraged, that they assembled a groat number of archers and men at arms, in order to force their way. The citizens immediately shut up their shops, and, arming with the gr. Meat car Aitken, ran to the bridge to oppose the nnailanta, and wouli have sallied cut upon their enemies, had they not been prevented- by the prudent conduct of John Coventry, the Mayor, and his brethren the Aldermen, which happily prevent ed the effusion of much blood. The Prince of Portugal, who happened at this time to be on his travels in England, with the Archbishop of Canterbury. generously undertook to compose the difference between the Protector and Bishop • but their endeavours proving unsuccessful, the Duke of Bedford, Regent of France, and brother to the Protector, came over to accommodate the affair. The artful and am bitious Bishop made his story as plausible as possible, to gain the Regent to his party, and never ceased persecuting the grind Protector until his death, which happened in 1447, not without shrewd suspicion of being poisoned he the Bishop, or his precutement. Nl'incliester House had another inhabitant equally and and persecuting with Car dinal Beaufort, in the person of Stephen Gardiner, Bishop of Winchester, in the reigns of Henry VIII., Edwanl VI, and Queen Mary, who, though not outwardly so merciless as Lonnor, Bishop of London. was nothing be him( him in persec uting to the flames all of the reformed religion he could not convert to his bigoted way of think ing. He was Equally mean in adversity, as haughty and imperious in prosperity. On the accession of Edward VI. he was imprisoned in the Fleet Prison, and afterwards com mitted to the Tower, though he subscribed to all the alter ations in religion by Edward VI., by whom he was always regarded as a secret enemy to the Refgrmation, and was' therefore deprived of his bishopric; but restored by Queen Mary, who made him Lord Chancellor and Prime Mi nister. Ile was distinguished for his extensive learning,' insinuating address, and profound policy ; the masterpiece of which was the treaty of marriage betwixt Philip and Mary, which was an effectual bar to the ambitious designs of the ruler, as thtre was no question, but Philip in tended. it possible, to make himself !nester of the king detn liv marrying Marc. When the Queen was supposed' to be far advanced in her pregnancy, Philip applies' to the PAliattlint tote constituted Regent during the minority cf the child, and enured to give ample security to surrender the regency 'when he or she should be of age to govern. The motion was warmly debated in the House of Peers, and he was likely to carry his point, when the Lord Page t stood up and said, " Pray who shall sue the Kin g s bond ?" This laconic speech had its intended effect, and the debate was soon concluded in the negative. ITinclyster House continued to bc the residence of the pre 'eta of that see, during their attendance in Parliament, until the breaking out of the civil wars (nil), when episcopacy was put down, and this Palace became for a thee a prison for the Royalists. September 26, 161% the Parliament Com missioners sold it to Thomas Wallter of Camberwell, for 4.360 L Bs. ad. King Charles H. in 1660, re:toted it to the see of Winchester; but on the desertion of this Palace, the prelates cf Winchester had another allotted to them at Chelsea. ------- The Clink, cr manor of Southwark, Is still under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Winchest:r, who, besides a court•leet, keeps a Court of Record on the Ilankside, by his stcwanr and byiliff, for pleas of debt, trespasses, &c.
