T3ll Mt T ISM Pm Esti enmmenced publishing yesterday morning at a quarter past fire o'clock. LONDON, TUESDAY, ALGCST 3,182 t. We have received French mails of the 31st, Hambargh of the Seth tilt., and Dutch of the Ist inst. From the former it appears that there was a rumour afloat, that there had been an insurrection in Spain, which had seriously 'acted the funds. We strongly suspect this rumour to be a mere stock-jobbing rose, as it is impossible to imagine tl:at the Spanintds, who bas not spirit enough to oppose the French when they were in possession of ►heir strong holds, will now rise in arms, when they arc occupied by the enemy ; and if the! did, they could not hare the most distant prospect of success. The Alfrentrine 2 •itnej, of the 19th ult. contains an in vo!ved and not very intelligible article on the policy of this country, with regard to the new Republics of South America, in which it seems to wish to prove that we, who Lave so many extra-European possessions, ought to be the last to acknowledge the independence of that quarter of the globe, as the tables may be turned against oursulves with our own Colonies. The answer to this is very short: the first moment that the British Governtinmt becomis a curse and a burthcm, instead of a snpport and a blessing, to any of her Colonies, the sooner that Colony shakes off her allegiance the better; and nil the nations of Europe are perfectly welcome to re ds/Mae her as a free Government, the moment she has freed herself from the yoke of the Mother Country. The Co lonies of (treat Britain can only be held by a conviction on the pert of the Colonists, that the connexion is reciprocally litnefc:sl to . lomh, and the moment that reciprocity of be nefit crazes, it is high time to dissolve the co-partnership. FIIANICFORT. Jets. lit. If France, on account of its internal policy. and especially with respect to the finances, excites the general attention of Europe, it is Eogland en the other hand whose foreign policy attracts the chief toiler. We look to the part which it is again on the point of play. tog in the System of the European l'ontirient, with regard to which many perhaps have bettetly been inclintsl to believe, that it had voluntarily excluded itself from it, and continta! itself at the meat to a negative, MClllitte the preetirc of the day did DM accord ride the eheories. The result will very shortly ihform us ahLi we are to think on this bead.. Buf for more interesting is its future troduet with respect to the New States that hare arisen in Ante. r ht. on the ruins of the Spanish power. There are many /arsons a lot. redwith.tendieg the declamations on this subject in the last Ss-ison of Parliament, will not believe that the British Govern. ment seriously thinks of recognising their independence, because rich an act might lead to consequences with respect to its own estra.Eitiopean porrasions, which might by no means agree with O.: yr:dominant principle and object art Mr. Canning's policy, as proclaimed by himself. For though it might very well aeit Enelintes own advantare, to see the great trans. athistie Commercial Mart fiend front all European super. t, Rey, it would etrtninty nut be willing to renounce the Lion which ie•elf esereisea over such extensive countries in both 11o:1;91h:req. aril which it cannot but own are bound to the mother cox try by much mote slender ties than the Spanish American Colonies, acre with Ind Spain. Whether sucli a general emancipa. lion of extra.Europecin possessions of the maritime powers niett not he talvant vertu,. to the interests of commerce, to the pro. gees of rivilizAtion, and to humanity is general, is iPti,:eti aneilier yuestiou. alt tomeit,sio:l of which would far exceed the hod s of ;i4 ;;It'C .

C. would merely point on., that the South Amerin.a qurcion, however urgent it may s too at this tuomesit, though it nay be nctived in various lights, awl notaizhstarding all iltar. er.cm of opinion, is not such as seriously to threaten any inter. 311116011 in the harmony subsisting between the states of our quarter art the Club.:. Prole the Cape Papers it appears that a Mr.Greig has Even sent home to this country for something er other , connected with the Press of the Colony. The view halloo his been I;i,•cn, exclusively, as it boacs, by the Editor of The British Tit:rater, and all the 11'ill4 and Radical pr.pers arc yelping in full cry. Now, though nothing can be worse than the condect of the Government of the C'ape, f f the :tor!, mil& is us Ito y rr/.rv•rrat i/ to Ic, yet, in justice ) it would be well were they to hear both sides of the question, and Oiey would recommend, that they re-' frainel from hallooing until they get Lirly clear cf wood. It would have been well had they ieormed them so lvcs too, ere they commenced criticising the measures of the (:ape Government, of a fact of which at present they -0-cm to he profoundly ignorant, that the Colony is under I Dutch law, and therefore the measures of the Governor are' not to be judged of, as we would judge of a Governor acting under a law similar to our own. At all events, wlmtercr the merits of the case may be, fair play should make Englishmen hear it before they condemn• It is extremely gratifying to find that the measures pur sued towards effecting the tranquillity of Ireland, have been attended with the happiest results. At a Privy Council held last week at Dublin Castle, the provisions of the Insurrection Act were withdrawn from the whole of the county of KERRY ; from the entire of the north, and the greater part of the south liberties of the city of LI MERICK, and from several baronies in that county. We have no wish to see that energetic spirit relaxed, which is necessary to repress outrage and disturbance; but we nevertheless look forward anxiously fur Me removal of the causes which excite them. The system pursued by the Mai:outs IVELLEALEY is, we know, well calculated to I conciliate the confidence of the people of Ireland, and to allay that spirit of intolerance, and those heart-burnings which have so long cankered the heart of that devoted country, and cut up its prosperity by the roots. The burst of public opinion in England has, of late, done much towards the putting Orange ascendancy out of fashion, and out of favour. We are becoming more en lightened on both sides the water, and in the course of another thousand years we shall be all fully persuaded of I what, one should think, a moment's reflection might teach us—the evil as well as the injustice of making men's religious (Onions the plea for excluding them from those tied rights which belong to the citizens of every state, not as the lifemhers of this or that Chu: eh, but as the leige subjects of the country. The Christian religion, which is the most benevolent system that ever appeared among men, breathes love and charity in every precept, and to make it —as, to the utter disgrace of its professors, it too long has been made—the pretext for depriving conscientious men of the franchise of the Constitution under which they live, is a course of proceeding to which nothing but habit, and the most perverted feelings, could reconcile us. We are accustomed to talk of ('atho lic emancipation ; but there is much in this expres sion that has a tendency to mislead us. It was well r-- marked by Mr. Fox, in an admirable speech which be made " on the state of the nation," three and twenty years ago,—" It is not ensancipation,' in the ordinary meaning of the term, that the Catholic wants, it is the re arced of the dell disabilities that remain, and that remain fOr no end of either security. of policy, or of prudence-- insulting and vexatious distinctions, beneficial to no inter est whatever—but the fruitful source of jealousy, discord, and national weakness. The Ilan. Gentleman (he pre ceetled, adverting to Mr. Dimas), talks of what has been given to the Catholics ;—Sir, you give them nothing while you deprive them of a scat in this House. I ',now of so political rights which ought not to be common to all the King's subjects, and I am sure that a system of proscrip tion, on account of theological differences, will for ever be found not more unjust and absurd than pernicious. If this principle needed illustration, Ireland affords it be yond the power of controversy." This is the language of an enlightened statesman, and not a day has passed since it was spoken, but has borne witness to its practical truth. Hap pily, under the present enlightened system of administra tion in Ireland, this exclesire spirit is gradually givin. ground, and the passions and animosities which arise out of it are in the same degree subsiding : the continuance of this system, proceeding as it has hitherto done, cannot fail of eventually consolidating the national interests, and commanding the affections of the people. When in private life we see a man who has tong been notorious for libertinism and profligacy, suddenly turn round and become rigidly sanctimonious, the world is sel dom apt to give him credit for his piety to the full amount that he appears to demand ; men are rather apt to suppose, that he has at:burned religion as a cloak to cover some sinis ter design, or to carry some measure which he would find it difficult to do were he to take etc field with his vizor up, and expose himself in his habitual character. Th e F.dinbu►gh Jirriew has long been the enemy of reli gion —not the open, avowed, and manly enemy, like its friends Hone and Cattle, but the sneaking, skulking rifle man of infidelityArho ensconces himaslr Ma place of safety, and from his vantage - ground shcots ridicule with unerring aim against the broad and uncovered front of his opponent. What then can 'be the cause of this sneering, insinuat ing, half-hinting, half-asserting partisan of I)eistn, wheel ing suddenly round, and, in the last number, becoming the violent advocate of that religion at which he used to smile in scorn, and the supporters of Missionaries, whom in for mer days a Reverend contributor covered with ridicule, and exposed to the sestet's dread laugh ? 1 think we can explain this anomaly. No cause o popular clamour now remains, whereon there can rest the slightest hope of raising an outcry against Government. The wise conduct of his Majesty's Ministers have silenced opposition. The country is (to the sorrow of the Whigs) in a state of unwonted prosperity. Nothing remains then but to raise an outcry, if possible, against the West In dians; and this, and nothing else, is the reason why the Liberals of the north chinie in with the allied army of East Indians, Radicals, and serious party of the country. But as the Edinburgh lirriew is new in its professions of sanctity, it was to be expected that this apprentice effort would b', in sonic degree, a bungled one, and so it has proved; for while they are asserting that the West' Indian planters were and are uniforn.ly opposed to the' moral and religious instruction of their slaves, the IVes leyan Missionaries, by far the most zealees and useful of the missionary body in our Colonies, tell us, that so soon as the planters found from experience that they came with the sole intention of preaching to the Heathen' the glad tidings of salvation, a large proportion of the plantei.s became their friends and supporters; and so far from opposing them, gore them every assistance it their power. _ It. by then have we the complaints from the independent Missionary Society ? Simply b cause they did no: confine themselves to the great objects for which they were sent to the. Vcst Befits, but mixed with it political party spirit. In proof of this it is only necessary to .tat:•, that while the deacons of Smith's congregation were the ringleaders of the insurrection in Demerara, and all his c . nigref., , atinn were more or less implieata d in it, only lu.i lity,ro:s belonging to the communion of the Wesleyans were even suspected, and these two, after a most minute scrutiny had held on their conduct, were fully aceiitted. But as one fan is worth twenty arguments, hear the evidence of the Wesleyan! themselvei, iu opp.isition to the gratuitous ask rtions of the sanctified set:ff..rs of the nertla. [The evidence will be found in another part of our Paper, under the head of IVe:t India Affliirs.] The Cermans !lave, time out of mind, been proverbial for lx ing deficient in their quantitits in the Latin language. The F:aglish, thougli the most correct Luin scholars in the world, have a tendency to pronounce the words of every other language with the same accentuation as if they were their own. Thus, for instance, we hav,.? that must cataract-sounding name--Niagara, from the Indian word.: " Xci wa ga ra," w hi c h is, of necessity, two as good orthodox spondees as can well be written, transformed into a whole body of shorts, in the very teeth of one of our most classical poets, who in verse demonstrates it as every syllable long— " Where wild Oswego spires& her swamps around, And Niagara stuns with thundering sound." Anil this brevity is confirmed by the diminutive Catullus of modern English rhyme, to the utter horror of all the admirers of good prosody, when he makes it a word of four short syllables, which, we appeal to any man of taste, transforms it into a dwarfish, snappish, pert-sounding vocable. But our countrymen are always willing to learn ; so we may do them a s:rvice by informing them, that we can state on authority (as certain papers say), that two proper names, at the present day familiar to our mouths " as household words "—Bolivar and Bogota, are in their own country pronounced—the former accented on the se cond syllable, which is long, the first and third being short—and the latter on the third syllable long, the first and second short. So, after this fair warning, should any one pronounce them differently, he is a traitor, and guilty of high treason against our sovereign doinine, Lindley Murray, his fertile, and dignity. An express from Paris brings the last price of the, Rentes on Saturday evening-97-90. They had been 97. The following is from the Journal des Debuts :—The Prince of Saxe Cuburg, son-in-law to the Xing of Eng land, has shown a remarkable instance or generosity to wrrds Rossini. The custom with this celebrated Italian composer, is, never to r to any musical .ndres for less than fifty guineas. He three tunes presided over concerts for the Prince, for whichrhis Hlghnces sent him SW guineas, and diamond pin. The cause of Don Miguel's emigration to France has in nowise prevented him from receiving the most distinguish cal honours from the French Court. On the 28th ult. he visited the Royal Mint of Medals, when a medal was rtruck in his presence, with the following inscription:—" Don Miguel, Infant de Portugal, visite la Monnaie Royal des Medailles, 2S July, 1824" ; and on the reverse the Genius of Numesmatography, presenting a Medal to the Muse of History, with the Legend—Rerum gertarum .idei et teterni tate 41'..A.A.F.F. A letter from Zante of the 21st June states, that an act of treason had occurred at Ilissolonglii, which at one time threatened the most dangerous consequences. It appears that Caralcystor, one of the Governors of the city, had agreed to deliver it up to Jussuf Pacha, who was to march 1 3,1100 Turks towards the fortress. The correspondence containing this plot was seized by a post of Greeks, and forwarded to Prince Nlavrocodato, who took measures to present its execution. The Turks marched, but were met and defeated, and Caralcystos is stated to have been put in irons. A correspondent, who signs " Americanus," thus writes— " I should have been happy to have remarked your very respectable paper detailing to the public the geographical positions of the principal places mentioned in the anonymous letter, giving an account of a decisive victory gained by Seignor Don Simon de Bolivar, over the Royalist army in Peru, as the public, on at c't particularaccounts being pub lished without names being given, should be put on their guard. I have just referred to Arrowimiith's celebrated map of South America, whereby it appears to be im possible that results, such as are detailed, could have occurred from a battle at Carme. The Royalists, after being defeated on the 6th of May, are made to retire over the bridge of Iluaras, to Guarmey, where they encounter a detachment of 4 ; 000 men and General Radii, to retreat on Lima. Hearts is at least fifty miles to the east of Guarmey, and Guarmey one hundred and fifty miles from Lima ; at such a distance. how is it postible Bolivar could take ion of Lima on the 10th, three days after the battle, possession g2OO miles from that city? I am apprehensive the reports given in the French Paper", confined as they have , been by private letters, ocalia worthy and celebrated cha racter having been obliged to retyira to Colombia, will prove but too correct.' . An Ent-dish Protestanidkapel was to be opened on Sun day, at the Motel Marliceut - Champs Elysee, Paris. - A letter from Paris says—" For two or three days past, the shop of Ladvocat, the bookseller, in the Passage de Bois, Palais Royal, has been crowded with visttors, to examine the beautiful bust of Lord Byron, by FiL - Acrs, which is finely executed." _ The Archbishop of Path M: dc Quelen. and Monsieur A.

Cuimic Delavignc Baron Rothschild, the banl-N., has lately sent to Count de Etabrol, Prefect de la Seine, the sum of Moo° francs, to be distributed to the poor of Paris, on the occasion of his marriage. A letter from Lyons says, that on Sun'tlay, July IS, while the Curate of Villeurbanne was performing Divine Service, some I etsons emend by a window into his house, and car ried off property to the value of 1.1,000 francs, and have hitherto eluded discovery. On the 22d ult. the Archbishop of Camlway, accom panied by the Sous-Prefer, the President of the Civil Tribunal, the Mayor of the town, the King's Lieutenant, ant'. many persons of consequence, attended the ceremony of exhuming the remains of the immortal Fendon, and placing the hotly in a leaden coffin, which was deposited in the vault under a monument lately erected to his inetaum A silver medal was placed in the coffin by the Mayor, Mons. Bethune Iluurez, with the arms of the town, bearing the date of 1&2'2. A considerable sum was subscribed towards this worthy undertaking by the British Officers, while they were in garrison in this town in Isis. The liouse in ahich Corneille died has lately been dis covered to be No. 18, Rue d'Argenteuil, in I'aris. The proprietor has placed a black marble slab in the front of the house, indicating that this great Poet died there in 168 t, and that the house was built in 1621. A handsome bust of Corneille is also placed in the Court-yard, crowned with laurels, on which is written—Le Cid, IG3G. Such has been the state of business at the Custom-house, from the extraordinary increase of our imports and ex ports within the last few weeks, that the clerks and other officers have been found unequal to the additional duties imposed en them. Mr. C.esar Moreau, the French Vice Consul, has just published a chart of ti lt past and present state of the trade of Great Britain, with all parts of the world, encompass.. ing in a bird's eye view what has appeared on the subject' during the last 123 years, and presenting the result of the parliamentary and other o ffi cial returns up to the period of publication.

We have seldom had to record an entertainment like this. The Noble Marquis was determined that his taste and munificence should not be called in question, and therefore he gave a ball and supper on Friday last to the Ladies, in a style of more than Oriental magnificence. The suite of five rooms—the ptqaortions are prodigious —were more brilliantly illuminated than before, and their 1 1 matchless furniture, in the style of Louis the Fourteenth, being reflected by the infinity of mirrors, produced an efft•ct quite magical. The visitants began to arrive at ten o'clock • a promenade till a quarter past eleven. Dancing commenced half an hour after with a quadrille (a new une, played by sixteen French performers), led off by tl'e Ladies Clement and Charteris, Lords Chesterfield and Cholmendeley. The coup dcril was heightened by a perspective view in the rear of the Music Gallery, of the Tapestry Saloon, a kind of fanciful boudoir, upon a large scale, the walls of which were hung with a scriptural stibject, " Our Saviour healing the sick, personified by groups of figures, as large as life, admirably executed. indeed, it is very probable that this may be, what it is said to be, the chef ((warre of the early Gobellin School. . The 'supper hour was two, but it was half-past when the banquet commenced in he dining :coin, beneath tl.e ball-rootti, now opened f,.,r the first time. it was a magni ficent spectacle, to see the display of glittering plate, aided by a plateaux of singular grandeur, bearing the finest flowers, and the whole lighted up by bratiehts of gold and frosted silver. The most delicious wines, French, SpaniA, Italian, and Hungarian ; fruits of this year's growth, from the south of France; in short, every thing was provided in profusion. • At four o'clock the dancing recommenced, and at six the music ceased.
