Jan. 1;. INSURRECTION IN JAYA. (From the New loik Daily .I,lveriistr of Dec. 26.1 The ship Romulus, Roberta, at this port from Batavia, brings intelligence that accounts had reached Batavia on the 6th Sep te:nber, that on the 2ii of the same month, at a place called De mart, about seventeen mile* east of Semarang. a numerous party of the natives collected with hostile intentions. The Authorities of Semarang called out • volunteer corps of cavalry, formed of the young men, mostly merchants, to attack the Insurgents with 100 seamen and akw native troops. When they came in sight of the enemy they found them to consist of from three to five thou. sand men, under arms, drawn up in three columns. The Europese Commander ordered has men to attack, and the Insurgents were is motion to receive them. A small body of cavalry, 28 in number, inexperienced, both men and horses. were oidered to charge unequal numbly., when they were immediately thrown into coutusion, and two were killed by the first discharge from the In surgents, who, in return, charged on the cavalry wiTh their Cossack spume, when the cavalr y an attempt to retreat, but being sur rounded, they endeavoured to pass a body of men who occupied the road between them and Samarang. The attempt was unfor tunate. as several of the horses fell and threw their riders into the soft and hniken grounds of the nee fields, who were in standy speared by the enemy. The remainder returned to their funner situation, and cut their way through the enemy and reached Semarang. Fourteen were killed anti missing, seven of whom were respectable young men. agents of English and Scotch houses at Batavia. The whole effective force of the Europead troops threughout the island does not exceed 3,000 men. The citizens of Batavia were all on military duty, and had to stand re gular guards, as (-salmon soldiers. It mean that the rebels, as they are called, amount to 10. m 12.000 men, and were principally from the district of Seven : 2,200 of the insurgents attacked Allagel4n, anti were repulsed. Div.di troops are stationed at various districts, and several of the local Governors, or Sultans, have offered assistance to the Dutch Government. Major-General Van Geen, at 31acassar, was keeping the revolutionists in the mountains in check. The Brussels papersoeSatiriiy announce, on the au thority of letters frond Frankfort, that notwithstanding the small number of members of the Duet at present in that city, the Austrian Plenipotentiary has convoked an extra ordinary avietnbly, in order to deliberate, it is said, on subjects of the highest importance. The Cot fa Gazette announces that a treaty has been con cluded between the French Government and the Court of Rome, by which the King of France, wishing to give the Holy See a proof of his affection, undertakes to employ his navy for the protection of the papal flag against the regencies of Barbary. It is some time since the French journals stated that a frigate would be despatched on this service. The Carla' Gazette expresses an opinion that this treaty contains some secret articles.

Commercial letters from Port-an-Prince (Hayti). dated the '2id of November, express an opinion that the French interest there is on tie decline, and that those advantages which have been granted to the French merchants, in con sequence of the treaty of independence, will shortly be participated in by the merchants of other countries. We are happy to understand that the latest official re ports from Arracan, received by the Tiger, give reason to believe that a decided change had taken place, for the bet ter, in the health of the army, especially of the men.

[F rum the Nnr York Doily Advertiser of Dec. 311.] PERU. The sbip General Smith, Captain Robinson, of and for Bahl. more, 82 days from Lima, has arrived in Hampton Roads. By this arrival we have intelligence trout that place as late as the Ist of October. e frigate Unitel States, Commodore Hull, was in Chnrillos Ray. The United States' ship Peacock, Captain Jones. sailed last September hir Guayaquil ; all in good health on board both I vess..ls. The Dolphin had sailed about the middle of August for ' the 3ltilgrive Islands. Lieutenant-Commandant Kennon, o•i the occasion of the tru•tsfer of his command of the Peacock to Captain Jones. which took plate about the 20th of September, had a sword voted to him by the crew of that vessel. An American Prig from Gibraltar arrived at Coquimbo about the first of August (while the Peacock was lying there), which was taken possession of by the Chilian authorities, on suspicion of having Spanish property on board. Lieutenant•Comdt. Kennon, then in command of the Peacock, on learning the facts, and having reason to believe that no such plea existed fur the detention of the brig, took possession of her; and being on a strict examination I confirmed in this opinion. lie immediately released her. Callao was still in possession of the Royalists, and it is supposed would hold out at least six months longer, notwithstanding it was closely blockaded by the Peruvian squadron. which con sisted of one frigate, one sloop of war, two brigs and two schooners. Bolivar was still in Uper Peru. The ship General Brown. Copeland, and cargo, had been eon. denoted. This vessel's cargo was partly Spanish property, and that pert was given up and condemned; afterwards a quantity of aw.rd blades was fourd on bo• rd, which being contraband, and the vessel having been bound into Callao, were considered good grounds of condemnation of the American part of the cargo and the vessel. The ships Alfred, Smith, of Boston; Friendship. Osgood, of Salem, and brig Potomac, of New York, had been taken up by the Government, and sailed about the first week in September for Arica, as transports. A number of other vessels had also been taken up for the purpose of transporting troops. but previous to their sailing orders were received countermanding them. The Chili squadron, consisting of a frigate and a brig of war, commanded by Admiral Blanco, had been ordered ttp to Valparaiso, and would sail in a few days. [From the New rock Gazette of Dec. 28.1 BRAZIL. Advice!' from Rio to the 14th ult. have been received at Halti. more by the schooner Blucher. The indications of war between Buenos Ayres and the Emperor of Brazil were becoming more apparent, and prepsrations were making for it in every department. The men of war were all ordered to be immediately ready for sea. A letter from Rio of the 12th says, in case of hostilitiea, a blockade of the River La Plata would be immediately laid and strictly en forced. These accounts. direct from Brazil, confirm the statement made a few days ago, of the total detest of the Emperor's troops by the Patriots of the Banda Oriental, and add further, that the remainder of the army generally joined the standard of liberty. The German troops, who were employed by the Emperor to keep the Pernambucans in order, had not been permitted to ac tomplish thus object quietly, and a serious disturbance had taken place between some of the people and one of the regiments. in which the Pernambucans suffered considerably. Two Colonels had been sent to Rio for trial. It was currently reportrl at Rio that Lord Cochrane was to re turn front England in the frigate Piranga, when she was refitted. TREATY BEIVERN COLOMBIA and MEXICO. TREATY OF PERPETUAL UNION, LEAGUE, AXD CONFEDERA TION, BETWEEN CLOMBIA AND MEXICO., PUBLIAIIED AT THE CITY or MEXICO, ON THE '2O TFI SEPT. NM The Government of the Republic of Colombia on the one part, and that of Mexico on the other, sincerely desirous of terminating the evils of the present war, into which they have been forced by the King of Spain, and having de termined to employ their whole naval and land forces in defence of their liberty, and anxious also that this league should be general among all the States of Spanish America, that they may contribute their limited strength and re sources to maintain the common cause of their indepen dence, have appointed plenipotentiaries, who have con cluded the following treaty of union, league, and con federation : Art. I. The Republic% of Colombia and Mexico unite, league. and confederate, tine ever, in peace and in war, to maintain with their naval and land forces, as tar to ciretmstances may permit, their independence of Sprin and all other foreign dominion ; and, after the recognition of their independence. to assure their mutual prosperity, harmony. and good intelligence, both among their peo ple and citizens, and the States with which they may institute re lations. 2. The Republics of enlombis and Mexico, therefore, enter into, and mutually fwm a perpetual compact of alliance, and firm and constant friendship, for their common defence, otligiog them. selves to aid each other, anti mutually repel any attack or Invasion that nyty is any manner menace the security of their independence and liberty, affect their intetesta, or disturb their peace, provided that in the last case requisition be made by one or other of the two Governments legally rstaidislud. 3. To effect the ohjezta of the preceding article, the contracting parties promise to aid each other, with the amount of land forces that may be fixed upon by special conventions, as the circumstances may demand, and during the continuance of the occasion. 4. The Military Navy of both contracting parties shall also be in fulfilment of the preceding conventions. 5. In eases where r aid is suddenly required, each party shall ape. rate against the enemy with all its disposable forces within the ter ritories of the other, if time be not allowed for concert between both governments. But the party thus operating shall observe the laws and ordinances of the State, as far as circumstances may permit, and shall respect and obey its government. The expenses thus in. curved shall be fixed by separate conventions, and paid one year after the conclusion of the present war. 6. The contracting parties oblige themselves to furnish whatever assistance they may be able, to the military and mercantile vessels arriving at the ports of each other, f:orn distress or other cause; and they shall have power to repair, refit, provision, arm, and in crease their armanent and crews, in as to be able to continue their voyages or cruises, at the expense of the state or individuals to whom they may belong. 7. To avoid abuses by armed privateers, of the commerce of the State and that of neutrals, the contracting parties agree to extend the jurisdiction of the mariu ne courts of each other, to their pri slums and prizes, indifferently, when they cannot readily ascer tain their port of departnr:, and abuses shall be suspected, of the commerce of neutral nations. U. The contractir.g parties mutually guarantee to each other the integrity of their respective terntories as they existed before the present war ; recognising, also, as part of this territory, what was not included in the vice-royalties of Mexico and New Grenada, but is now a component part of it. 9. The component parts of the territory of both parties shall be defined sad recognised. In. If internal quiet should unfortunately be distributed, in the territory of either party, by disorderly men and enemies of legal ' Government, the contracting parties engage to make common cause against them, until order and the empire of law be yr- established. Their farces shall be famished, as provided by Articles 2 and 3. 11. All persons taking arms against either Government, lagallv established, and fleeing from justice, if found within the territory of either contracting party, shall be delivered up. t o b e tried by the Government against which the offence has been committed. De serters from the army and navy are included in this Article. 12. To strengthen the bonds of future union between the two States, and to prevent every interruption of their friendship anti good intelligence, a Congress shall be formed, to which each party shall send two plenipotentiaries, commissioned in the same form and manner as are observed towards ministers cf equal grade to foreign nations. Both parties oblige themselves to solicit the other cidevant Spanish States of America to enter into this compact of perpetual union, league and confederation. 14. As soon as this important purpose Oatl have been at hafted, a general congress of the American States shall assemble, composed of their plenipotentiaries. Its object will be to confirm and establish intimate relations between the whole and each one of the States; it will serve as a council on great occasions; s poiht of union in common danger ; a faithful interpreter of public treaties. in cases of misunderstanding, and as an arbitrator and conciliator of disputes and differences. 16. The Isthmus of Panama tieing an integral part of Colombia, and the most suitable point for the meeting of the Congress, this republic promises to furnish to plenipotentiaries of the Congress all the facilities demanded by hospitality among a kindred people, and by tl.e sacred diameter of ambassadors. 16. Mexico agrees to the same obligation. if eve?, by the acci dents of wnr, or the consent of a majority of the States, the Congress should meet within her jurisdiction. DRURY-LANF: THEATRE. The opera of Gay Manner-big , was announced for repre sentation on Friday evening —the characters of !Jay and Henry Bertram by Miss Stephens and Mr. Sinclair. On the entrance of Lee!, it was seen that Miss Gtaddon, not Miss Stephens, was the representative. Strong disappro bation was immediately expressed, anti Miss Graddon was obliged to leave the stage. Mr. Penley then came forward with a play-hill in his hand, and with difficulty:obtained a hearing while he stated that bills, similar to that in his I hand, had been posted at the doors to announce that, in consequence of the sudden indlliposition of Miss Stephens and Mr. Sinclair, their characters would be sustained by Miss Graddon and Mr. Horn. The audience were still dissatisfied, and Mr. Penley withdrew amidst cries of " Shame, shame!" " (.)f1 off!" it was attempted to proceed with the piece, but the disturbance increased. Liston next came forward with an apology, but was unable to obtain a hearing. The Manager was loudly called for, and Mr. Elliston, jun., presented himself; and, having expressed his regret for the disappointment, said those who chose to leave the house should have their money returned. lie slam stated, that lie held a certificate of Mr. Sinclair's indisprsition ; and added, that Miss Stephens's father was extremely ill, and supposed to be at the point of death. After this appeal the tumult subsided, and but few left the house. A long pause succeeded the first act, when Mr. Elliston again came forward, and said that on receiv ing the certificate of Mr. Sinclair's inability to perform Mr. Horn had been sent for, hut had not yet arrived; under these circumstances Mr. Yardley, who had repeatedly per formed the part in the country, had tendered his services, and with their permission the piece would proceed. The audience testified their approbation, and Mr. Yardley's performance was very favourably received. THE KING'S NEW PALACE, lir. The name by which the Palace now erecting on the site of Buckingham Ilouse is to be designated is " The King's Palace in St. James's Park." Since the commencement of the work, notwithstanding what rumour has said to the contrary, it has never been stopped or suspended ; and were it not for the high wooden fence which surrounds the spot, the building would be seen to be as high as the I)uke of York's Palace, namely, about the completion of the second story. Our readers in town, and many in the country, who have visited town, are aware that at the back of Bucking ham House were the Queen's gardens—an extensive space, and well laid out. These will, of course, continue to he the grounds of the new royal residence ; but considerable alterations have been made, to render them more eligible for that purpose. In order to conceal from the windows the great pile of stables lately erected in Pimlico, near the lower end of Grosvenor-place, a large artificial mound has been raised, and planted with curious trees and shrubs. Behind this a fish-pond is made. With regard to the Palace itself, we understand that the outline of the front will not be very materially altered from that of old Buckingham House, though it will be greatly extended. This is partially the consequence of as much as possible of the original edifice being saved, and merely cased with stone, to serve as a portion of the new. The centre will accordingly remain hm the shape of a parallelo gram, front each side of which a circular range of buildings will terminate in pavilions. The whole sweep will em brace, probably, from a quarter to the third of a circle. In the centre two orders of architm etute are employed : the basement is Doric (which is continued to the termination of the wings) and the upper part Corinthian. How these will assimilate it is not for us to say. The pavilions will be ornamented with niches, as well as windows; and in these statutes and works of art will be placed. These wings have also pediments ; and looking at the whole de sign when finished, the general outline will be seen broken by turret-formed objects, of which the best idea we can convey is, that they are much in the manner of Vanbrugh. The entire pile will be of immense magnitude. His Ma jesty will reside there when in his capital, and it is not an indifferent trait to observe, that it will not be altogether strange to his eyes; for every mantle and moveable piece of Carlton Palace which can be used in the Palace in St. James's Park, is ordered to be removed thither. Thus, the dismantling of Carlton Palace will commence early in the ensuing Solomon. In the new Palace, all the principal or state apartments are to face the west; or, in other words, to occupy the back range towards the garden. This front will be in the form of a fine bow, which affords noble facilities for such apartments. From the north to the south a wide gallery of communication is to run, and will open into all these rooms. At the south (Pimlico) end will be the grand staircase, in a similar position with that which has disap peared, and nearly in the same broad and commodious style. Buckinghatn-gate and the guard house must of necessity be taken away, and the road will pursue a direc tion more to the southward, to leave space for the extension of the Palace in this direction. On the front a spacious circular enclosure will be made, by an ornamental railing of mosaic gold, and divided into compartments by terms. The same metallic composition (which is patronised by Mr. Nash) is to be employed in every other part heretofore constructed in iron. In the middle of this area the IVaterloo Monument will be erected ; it is to consist of a triumphal arch, with national emblems, trophies, &c., and colossal statues in the above metal, imitating bronze. YORK HOUSE. York House is now developing its form to every specta tor who crosses St. Jamcv's and the Green parks. It i 3 nearly two stories high, that is to ray, externally, nearly completed. Unlike London bodges in general, one of its distinguishing features is that of having four perfect fronts. The ground-floor is rusticated in straight or horizontal lines, called, we believe, " French rustics," and above, the Corinthian order is adopted. To impart to it a palace like appearance, differing from the usual residences of Noblemen, it will look to be only two storks in height ; for most of the sleeping rooms, which are on the third floor or in the roof, are, agreeably to the plan, to be con cealed by a balustrade or parapet. The grand entrance on the north side, in the square of the Stable yard, will be under an arcade for carriages, through which they can drive, setting down as they proceed in order. Above there will be a portico or colonnade com municating with the principal floor. The south and west fronts are in the same style, hut with each a broad and handsome terrace—quite a new feature in the architecture of the metropolis. For a square house, without wings, we are informed that York House will be the largest in England. This will allow for apartments on the most magnificent scale, and such are laid out. l'he north entrance opens into an im mense vestibule or hall, with a corresponding staircase, the steps of which are fourteen feet long, the whole lighted by a superb Lantern. On the ground flour are noble libraries, baths, bed rooms for his Royal Highness, dressing rooms, and all the common living apartments, in a superior style. The principal, or first floor, is occupied with splendid state rooms, dining rooms, drawing rooms, &c. ; and a pic ture gallery, having four fire places, and being 13U feet in length. , LIVERPOOL cbmmEßcrAt INTELLIGENCE.

On Thursday last a numerous meeting of the creditors of' the Bradford establishment was held in that place, Henry Leah, Esq. in the chair; at which it was unaini. mously resolved:— " That ■s, in our opinion, the assets of Messrs. Wentworth and Co. are sufficient to satisfy the demands of their creditors, it is most desirable that their affairs should be wound up under the ma. nagement of the partners themselves, rather than under a commis. sion of bankrupt. " That, if Messrs. Wentworth and Co. will forthwith make . dividend of such of their suets as are now available, and give u■ their promissory notes, payable in London, for the remainder of our demands, by instalments, within a reasonable period, and vest a sufficient part of their property in trustees, for the creditors, as security for the due payment of such notes, we will then assent to such measures as may be requisite for superseding the present or any other commission of bankrupt to be issued against them. " That the immediate adoption of the preceding resolution he strongly recommended to the creditors of the other establishments, as a measure best calculated, in our opinion, to promote the inte. rests of all parties; and that the Chairman be requested to trans. mit copies of the resolutions of this meeting to such creditors, and also to Messrs. Wentworth and Co.'s, and desire them to give an answer to the proposition with as little delay as possible." This resolution was signed by a large body of the cre ditors. A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Wentworth and Co., bankers, is convened to be held at the Sessions-house, in Wakefield, on Monday next, " for the purpose of deter mining whether any, and what measures are necessary to be adopted for protecting the interests of the creditors. RIPON AND KNARESBOROI7OII BANK. In conformation of that part of the paragraph which ap peared in our last week's paper, relative to the stability of the above banks, we are requested to say, that it is but jus tice to Mr. Thackary (Mr. Charnock's partner) to state, that he is a gentleman possessed of considerable private fortune, equally available with Mr. Charnock to the ere:li tort of the bank—and there is no doubt of every demand being speedily and most honourably paid. We regret to state that there are letters in town from Edinburgh which mention the failure of a very extensivr bookselling and publishing establishment in that city, the amount of whose debts is estimated at 600,000/. It stated that a celebrated Poet will he a considerable sufferer, and the yuid nuncs of the Scottish capital are in high spirits at the anticipated investigation, which they suppose will clear (up a great literary mystery, which has hitherto defied all the attempts made to unravel i t. —Globe. It has been remarked that although a large quantity of gold has lately been paid by the bankers in the various towns of Yorkshire in exchange for their notes, there is scarcely a sovereign to be seen in circula tion. They are principally hoarded, and silver coin as well as gold is becoming very scarce in Leeds, having probably found its way into the same hoards.—Leedl .Mt rcuty. Tti E COTTON Taft DE.—SIICh is the present state of the cotton trade in this town, that several of the mill-owners have been obliged to place their work-people on half-work, and we are confidently assured, that unless a material im• provernent takes place in the demand for manufactured goods, this example must be speedily followed by others.— Stockport Adeertiser. itimucTioN or THE TIME or WORKING IN COTTOI, FA craTi k B.—We understand that many of the largest spinning concerns in this town and neighbourhood, as well as at some of the circurnjacent towns, in consequence of the very depressed condition of trade, have reduced their time of working to not exceeding from four to five days week. The same measure is in contemplation, we bclievt in several other places.-3fasehr3lcr Guardian. COMRINATION.—We had thought the spirit of combi nation was nearly extinct, but we understand the journey, men peckers of this town are endeavouring to establish Union Society, which goes to prevent masters from em ploying any new hands; and compelling then. to have those only who belong to the Union, let their characters or abili ties be what they may. It would be well if those houses who arc in the regular habit of employing packers, would facilitate, as much as may be in their power, the efforts of the masters to prevent the establishment of such a combina tion.—Manchester Guardian. On Thursday, about four o'clock in the afternoon, an alarming fire broke out in the flax-mill of Mr. George Hammond, at the Bank, in this town, and which was not got under until very considerable damage had been done, both to the building and the machinery. The fire origi nated in the carding-room, which is on the third floor, and oat occasioned by the friction of one of the carding ma chines. The flames spread with such fearful rapidity, that the work-people, consisting chiefly of young women and children, had great difficulty in escaping. in effecting which two were slightly scorched and one severely burnt. There were about ten of the work-people in the attics, who had no other means of escape except that of getting upon the roof of the building and passing into the adjoining mill. Though the engines connected with the town and different tire offices arrived with the greatest promptitude, and were worked with great effect, two of the floors were destroyed by the conflagration, and it was only by the greatest exer tions that the ground-floor, which was filled with valuable machinery, was preserved. The loss, independent of the injury done to the building. exceeds 3,0001. The ma chinery is insured in the Atlas Fire-office, though we understand not the full amount of the loss: the building, which is the property of James Holdforth, Esq., is insured in the Guardian °Mgt.—Leeds Mercury. • . . . . . , i t 1 , I r . . 1 ii 1 I.

It The original award of this General Court-Martial was founded on the great and most dangerou s error, that irritation and disap- 1 pointment, resulting front imagin e d injury, could palliate enor- mous clinics, and justify a Court in visiting the perpetrator of 01 r . '0 those crimes with comparatively light and incommensurate punish. , Al meat. It was under the convicticm that the promulgation of such a •enterne would have been pregnant with inflate iniscliief, that the t i . r re Commander-in-Chief was ple a s e d to or d er i ts vision ; and it af- fords him very since r e s at isf act i on to ti•iii, that the Court. after mature reflection, have seen their error, and most h onoura bly an d .: ' . 1 . • creditably correc ted it, by passing a senten c e equally demanded by i ! ba justice and discipline.
