(PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCEI The revolt of the volunteer Royalists of Murcia and Roa has been followed by that of other corps. At Terrasona, in Arragon, the volunteers have also revolted, and the clergy themselves haze tet been even sheltered from their insults ; for the chairter of Tar rasor.a having to appoint to an ecelesissical benefice on the same day as the revolt, the volunteers placed themselves at all the gat' a ut the cathedral, and to each of the canons who entered, one of the soldiers approached him and said, " If you vote fur a Liberal, yt u will rot go out of this place alive." The consequence was, the capons retired without any nomination taking place that day. There have also been some disturbances at Pensicols, and, in consequence of the smallness of the garrison, the landed propriemrs sad the resident gentry were obliged to arm themselves in aid of the troops. for the preservation of order. At Valladolid, the hangmen refused to execute a corporal of the Royali•t volunteers, in consequence of the menaces which he had received from the corporal's comrades; and it was necessary that a detachment of the troops of the line sbnuld take the execution, t w.der their care, to protect him from the violence of the troops,— The corporal has, however, been executed. The Canon Ostalaga. grand Dignitary of the Apostolic Faction, known by the name of the " Exterminating Angel," is, it is said, the instigator of the disturbances in Murcia, which, we are assured, are been this day suppressed. _ _ It appears that same changes have taken place in our relations w , th Portugal, for M.

An American Journal announces that St. 11);inicii;t1 been blockaded by • French squadron ; two or three French Journals have repeated this news. We reply that It is false! and that the vessels that have been supposed to have been employed in this blockade, still remain in the port of Brest under the command of Admiral Daperre. We have received American Papers to the 9th ult., from which the following are extracts : [From the New York ail:eras:T.l COLOMBIA. The following translations from a late Carthagena paper, which are furnished by the Baltimore Gazette, prove that the revolution ary principles of General Peet eee confined to a very small por tion of the republic, and that his propositions for a general revolt were in many places indignantly rejected. The General Government have recently published a Proclama tion, in which they deny all the charges made by the revolutionary party, and charge them with unprincipled designs and inconsist ency, and assume a tone calculated to intimidate, but at the same time to recal them to their duty. The Intendant of the DeportMeht of Igahrrin (ffirmerly Orinoco) InforMo the Government, under date May 12 and June 4. of the scandalous occurrences of Valencia and Caracas, adding that two Commissioners from General Pace had &reined at Cumana, with an invitation to the department to join in the insurrection. " This Intendattey," says the first despatch, " has taken the most Fromm and efficacious measures, in order that the utmost tranquillity and rod order may be maintoined throughout the provinces of this de partment, making for that purpose the nec essary dispositions; and it further promises that, as on former occasions, the department of the Orinoco has given proofs of its adherence, respect, scut submis sion, to the Government of the Republic. it will not, under exist ing circumstances, depart from its principles and character; but Will maintain its firm anti unshaken attachment to the system by which we are at present governed, &c." In the second despatch, in which mention is made of the com mission sent by Paez, to draw over that department to his rebellious schemes, the Intendant writes to the Secretary of the Interior— ' Yoti may rely, therefore, on the public opinion, an the virtues of the in.iabitaras of this department, and on the purity of their senti ment.. According to the accounts which 1 have received, all have been unanimous in declaring for the Constitution and the Esta blished tiovernment, disavowing all authority not emanating from it . . . . for they acknowledge as an important principle, the' liberty would be destroyed the moment the opinion prevailed that, under the pressure of extraordinary ciacuinstances, die limits of the Constitution might be infringed. (From the Boston Statesman.] IMPORTED BROADCLOTHS.—We received the following com munication from a highly respectable source, with authority to use names, if necessary, and are induced immediately to lay it before the public. We are far front believing our auctioneers would knowingly sell spurious goods, and believe. that if it has been done, they were deceived. We submit the article. " The public, and particularly purchasers of cloths, are informed, that a considerable quantity of blue cloths have been recently sent to this city from New York and sold at public auction • the colours of which, although apparently good, a re spuriou s and g ood for nothing. These cloths are of English manufacture, and are said to be sold by our auctioneers, under authority of an English agent, who is located in New York. The texture of many of these cloths is good, and the colours seemingly very beautiful. It therefore be mutes important for purchasers to look sharp and have the colour of their cloths warranted permanent. Mews. Ilenfield and Chant. berlain, merchant tailors, in Salem, have recently bought see , pieces of these goods at a regular public auvion in this city. Teti y took them home, and sold them in garments without the lent au a . Orion dial the clotipewere not perfectly good. But after the garm ti its d been worn a very short time, and exposed to weather and un, the colours turned a bright re ddish brown, and the gar: o ants in this condition have been nearly all returned on their hard I L _ They have asked for an allowance of the auctioneers, but ,at te in. formed by them that Mr. Buckley Bent, of New York, the FA iglish Agent, will not make any allowance. Time the whole 1055.,. which la ,cry considered., must be sumained the individtxt u swhn bought these goods at one of the most respectable and t sz :tenpin auction houses in this city, and under circumstances w 3 i c e gaye them every reason to believe they were motit liable to be 1' ephy i n . jurcd without redress. Individuals in this city have als • been de ceived and injured in the nine manner. REMARKS.—We are informed that the imposition w p aborted in the above communication has been practised in this tit y to a great extent. One individual at least has been seriously i k jured. Be I purchased eight pieces of these cloths, and manufattu them into caps ; the labour and trimmings, added to the cloth, enhanced its, value threefold. The caps were made for the Cr D e i s a t We s t Point, and others sent to various parts of the United : States, There has been one general complaint of time colours fudi tt,g to a dirty claret, after eight or ten days' exposure to the.sun a' it I weather, and many of them have been returned. Application w b s made is the importer for a reduction, which he refused to ma t e. Cloths and other dry goods are frequently sent to auction, who instructions, if , they bring the price limited, to sell a certain quart ity more. The purchasers of the sample pieces are sometimes strao ors, or persons flying out of the city. They get the samples fru .11 the auctions; the purchaser by %nipple are dis,atisfiell, but ia 'mot obtain the sample to make a comparison; and often,by nit means sustain a lon, the goods purchased not being as good es: the sample. An instance of this kind took place het week : a sale was made by sample of a number 0" pieces, and, by comparieor t with the sample piece, there was a difference of 21 per cedt.; b' at this is not to be t wondered at, as they prove to be of the spuriotte kind as to colours. Those who send indigo blues to auction would do well to instruct the auctioneer to warrant the colours, otherwise they mey suffir by being found in bad company. A sample of t he cloths alluded to mar be seen at our office. Thtt schooner Antelop e, at Baltimore, brie gs advicqi from La Oitayre to the 13th ult. inclusive.

Lewis It. M. Morse, of Boston, came passenger, and gives the following as Count of the seizure of money front him by the oflieere of the port of Callao, which are published for thfe in formation and caution tri'others who may have transactions in that quarter. The facts are substantiat e ,' by th e eertilicat e a Mr. Tu. doe, the United States Consul Mr Peru. and by the writ-established reputation of Mr. M. fiat veracity. Mr. Morse arrived at Cilia° from Arica. for the purpose of taking passage in the ~ hip lieriatte, eland for Boston. In the act of transferring his baggage from one vessel to another (and wlt ich he had never taken on shore), he took with hUn in his bandit& 'lief about 700 dollies in Palen?, and, me bars, to the amount in all of about WOO dollars. Ile mocha. the Heroine at the moment when the Captain of the Port was making his final visit, and went up the aide, openl y holding the money in his hard, in presence of all the officer,. It was immedittely seized; he himself, with all his baggage, taken un shore for examination ; and by this arbitrary conduct he lost his passage in the Heroine. The whole of the conduct of Mr. Morse in this affair showed so fully that he had no in. tendon of defrauding the revenue, and being an entire strrtnger in the place, ignorant of the regulation that no money could be tran shipped without paying the small duty of one per cent., that Mr. Tudor. our Consul, accompanied by the Vice.Cunsul, maths per. sores) application to Mr. barrea, the 3lit.i.tet of the Treasury, to Mr. Unanne, the President, and General Salazar, the Mints ler of War, to obtain restitution of the motley. They all expressed s hear goo d will t o restore it, and Captain. Young, Captain of the .Fort, agreed to relinquish his claim to the money ; but the subalter4 re. venue officers, who were interested in the seizore, refusing, the tin. vernment decided that they would not interfere. The only rc non left to 31r. 31. was to appeal to the Judge of the First Court : lout the persons most experiereed in the delays and vexations of law suits, and the knowledge that the holders of the money would heild to , to i t t o the last, advised Mr. M. against the proceeding, and to abandon all further hopes of obtaining justice, which he did, and aubtuitted to the rubbery of his hard earnings. The Times of the day before yesterday made a very' groundless and unjust attack on his M jesty's Ministers, accusing them of an intention to shirk the question of the revision of the Corn Laws. This intention is merely stated as a rumour, and is without the slightest foundation. We should not, in fact, have noticed it, as it is easy to trace the motive of the Times in inserting it; but we understand that some p rcons have been misled by the language which that Journal has thought proper to use, and we must therefore make a few remarks upon the subject. —This rumour was evidently got up as a manceuvre to enable the Times to back out from some of its late aeser lions. It had declared, a few days before, that the " Corn THE Question a to prevail t variety of bead. It admitting pretesded the Man a already decided," and that it was impossible repeal of the Corn Laws.,. It had published a arrageous articles, evident. ) , proceeding on the that there was nothing to be feared on that as Impassible to return to the subject without las it had calculated wrong, unless it could be 111 Some new obstacle bad come in the way of This pretended obstacle was found in the intention supPnled rimier of the A of Ministers to shirk the question. We rejoice that the 'Times has come to the re sult at which it has arrived. On many occasions that journal haa,advocated, moderately and judiciously, the re vision of the Corn Laws; we tlo not, however, the less de test the means by which it. his deemed it necessary to smooth its way to that result. If the question of the Corn Laws is decided (as, with the exception of a few indivi duals, we • believe that i t actually is), bow can the Times imagine that there is any necessity for Ministers to shirk that question, even on the supposition that they are sufficiently base to be biassed by any such consi deration? Thervis, indeed, a necessity for moderation in the conduct of Minist ere—e necessity of being wiry in bringing forward their measures in due time and place—a necessity, perhaps, roc netimes, of playing their checks by discovery---of eontenti.n ; themselves with a little, rather. than lasing all; but Nl.inisters, we can boldly Arm, have no intention (and w e speak on good ground) to shirk any question srbjcb ..may Jae beneficial to the country, whether on this or say *kW o evasion. We are told that t here am three ways in which the rate of interest may he r aim]. I. By diminiehhis the quantity dimity, the quantity and picot of commodities rows' tning the same. 2. By ineteasing the quantity and circulation of commodities, their prices aid eh: quantity of money remaining the same; that is, by an increase s E I rade. 3 . BY raisin/ i the prices of commodities, their quantity and the quantity of ng uey remaining the same. Of these t nethods two are impossible on the principles of DAN!: L If ARDCAITLE himself. If the quantity of money be dinnnii hed, and that of commodities remain the same, how can e ao price of commodities still continue the same? If the qu antity of money and commodities remain the same, how can the price of commodities be raised? We must either si ippose that the writer himself considered these as ble cases, or that he admits the existence of other causes besides the increase of money and demand in de terniit ling the price of commodities. In stating these cases, he ei means nothing, or be means that prices may fall, thou gh the quantify of money increases. It is true that the quantity of money in the market regulates the rate of int rest in some degree; but there is another circumstance, of far more importance in this respect. An increase of tl ade itself will only raise the rate of interest so long as he means of making artificial money are unpractised. The only permanent cause of an increase ih the rate of interest is an increase of the risk in lending. As soon as artificial money is invented, interest will again decline; and, as that money may be manufactured by individuals who cannot furnish good securities, the risk of the borrower in accepting insecure paper is balanced against that of the lender in advancing on doubtful security, so that the rate I of interest still remains low. A most singular assertion is matle—that a decline in the rate of interest is an infallible I sign that the prosperity of a country is on the wane: in other words,-•-edilea few are rich. and many are in want, • nation is in a state of prosperity, and vice versa. We cannot condescend to reason at length on such a prepos , terou3 assertion, snade in defiance of all political science and reasoning. It would be ridiculous to refer to the state of the Money Market in foreign countries, where it rises exactly in proportion to the poverty of the country. We shall content ourselves with tracing the origin of the mis take. It must have arisen from a confusion of Ideas io making the comparative interest or profit arising from an equal sum at different periods a test of the whole increase of the wealth of a nation. An example may make our meaning clearer :—lf a man augments 100/. in fifteen years to wo/., by a profit of five per cent, in a business which cannot be extended without lowering his profits to four per cent., he could not continue to make the same profits as . _ before on each 1001., and would not be able to double his capital in fifteen years ; but he would be enabled to employ 2001., with its growing interest, instead of lOU and his en tire profit at starting on the next fifteen years would be 8/. a year instead of &1. It is impossible that profits should continue the same while money increases at compound inte rest. They must diminish, and the faculty of consump tion can not advance in the ratio of interest or profit; but hew it can be made out that lowness of interest affords a desponding prospect to the country appears very diffi cult to conceive. It indicates a return of confidence; according to llssarr. HARDCASTIA himself, it indi cates an increase of capital; and, in the name of common sense, what mare is wanting to encourage trade but confi dence and capital? The return of confidence we attribute to the partial substitudon of a sound circulation instead of that of the country ba'okers ; and we think that nothing more is wanting to replace ut in a state of prosperity but an extension of this confidence, and prudence in not em ploying more capital in trade than is wanted to answer all its purposes. Experience has shown us that all our capital cannot be employed in trade without a considerable retlitc, tion of prices. The manufacturers thetnselves must do something in this respect as well as others; they must en deavour to employ a greater capital by requiring a less profit. The quantity of money, it is said, has already only operated on the rate of interest and on Government Secu rities; "but let it once operate on the price of commodi ties, and all the mad scenes of 1824-3 will be acted over again." A little farther down we are told that "an addi tion to the quantity of money would be productive of mis chief, for," it is added, " why do the agriculturists and manufacturers call out for more money? The answer is easy," he says; "it is, that the price of commodities may rise." Now it is not easy, for us at least, to say how a rise in the price of commodities would increase speculation. We had imagined that a rise in the price of commodities would prevent even legitimate trade, by shutting us out • froth foreign markets. 1 Da tel Et. HaItIAASTLE terminates his discussion by im pugning the validity of the rate of exchange as a test of the redundancy of circulation, and stating some doubts as to the fact of its being favourable to us in the case of France. We shall make no remark on the first of these pro positions, to which he only alludes. fle awns, also, among other pertitulars, that silver has been sent abroad in ex. change for gold ; but we believe there is in this a consider able mistake. The greater portion of the gold brought from abroad has been obtained by the sale of foreign securities. As to the fact of our having a favourable exchange with France, we shall just allude to the two propositions by which he impugns the general opinion. He asserts that the difference of the value of English and French coins, at Paris, a rises, Ist, from the inferiority of French gold; 2J, from ,ITISH 'Miss. the premium given for gold in consequence of the French regulation, by which silver is made a legal tender. — Now both these facts are proof* of the superiority of our circulation in itself. The par of exchange between London and' Paris has been fixed by Dr. KELLY et 45 Panes, P.§ cent:. reckoning the quantity of pure gold in each : but gold at the Mint in London is cheaper than at Paris ; that is, its price, compared with silver, is less, and consequently the same quantity of gold will Frocure less silver in London than at Paris—es etite of things pre cisely the reverse of what DANIEL HAIIIICAATLIL was in the habit of assigning on former occasions se the cause of the depreciation of the currency. If, in these circumstances, it is still impossible to export our gold, as this writer asserts, we do not see why he should find fault with that circumstance, recollecting, as he must, the alarm excited by the flight of our guineas. It is true, he only wishes to prove that the rate of exchange in this case does not prove a deficiency in our circulation; but, in his attempt to prove this, he admits too much for his own former hypotheses, and does not succeed in esta blishing what ballad in view. Ile only contends for the ex change being at par, and that if true would allow merely that the quantity of exported English gold is exactly propors I dotted to the demand for it abroad. The deficiency at home may not be sufficiently great to call in the English coin, which is always required abroad, the deficiency there being, in fact, equally great with that at home. This will point out the importance of the principle laid down at the 1 outset with regard to the three different kinds of money. There is a necessity for the existence of a certain quantity of English money abroad as well as at home, and the same rules for ascertaining its sufficiency or redundancy must apply in its case as in our domestic currency. In France, if any where, there should be a redundancy of our coinage, considering the number of travellers who carry out money or bills ; and therefore, in this case, to prove that the exchange is at par, is to prove that it is, for all the purposes of DANIEL Ha RDCASTI.CS reasoning, entirely in our fa vour. There is a continual exportation of our coins to France, and their continuing at par proves that they are flowing continually back again. The fact mentioned respecting the payment of bills on Paris in silver as wLII as gold ought to have led DANIEL H•RDCASTLE to form different conclusions from those at which he has so frequently arrived. It was but the other day that we hinted at the propriety of extending our silver currency, as a method of preventing, in some measure, the depreciation of the coinage in g nerd, and DANIEL HeancaseLe kindly fortified our position the same day, by reminding us that France hail admitted silver to a legal equality with gold. Although the depreciation of' French gold, in so far as it exists, is favourable to us, it is obvious that the difference is too trifling to be s matter of any great consideration ; end, if the case were the same in this country, it is clear that it would have little effect on our exchange, because our larger bank-notes would answer the purpose of remittances better than gold itself. One word more with DANIEL. HanocasTLT, and we bid him adieu for the present. Ile tells us to "allow the free importation of corn, and, if that should destroy the rent of the landlord, so much the better." Call eon that Lacking your friends? 4 plague upon such Lading, Daniel! With you and the Times for pleaders, the cause of the revision of the Corn 14w1 is irretritesbly lost. If you con prove to ur that Alie revision of the Corn Laws will destroy the rent of the landlords, we shall still leave you the Corn Laws as a topic for opposition ; we at least shall no longer advoc l se ir revision: but we have no such fears, and Yeetstill" ue to advocate that measure, — not for the puttee of' nishing the value of rents, 1 ut because we think it wilt -in the end augment it. There has been much discussion about the nature of rent, but we have never viewed it in any light but one— as interest upon capital, and as land is a species of capital which is perfectly secure, and which is capable of conti nual increase in value, the purchase is necessarily higher, in proportion to the rent, than Ili any other sort of ca pital. For every practical purpose this definition is suf ficient, and it is supported even by etymology. How is it, then, that DANIEL Hs tines ser.t: wishes interest to rise and rents to fall? Unless DANIEL lIARDCASTLE wishes confidence in commerce to be entirely extinct, these two things cannot take place together ; for, if confidence in commerce be restored, and interest still continue high, money which would have been invested in land will be lent ! on interest ; and, according to his own principles, the rents of land must rise, a greater inducement being necessary to obtain purchasers for land ; and the interest of money must fall, the quantity seeking investment being increased. It is rather extraordinary for this writer to start with an assertion that money is superabundant, and to conclude by affirming that the " country is gradually sinking into poverty." He has thus himself taken care to answer one part of his assertions by another, and with that we leave him. CITY, WEDNESDAY EVENING. The slackness of business occasioned by the Hebrew holyday, for the last clay or two, has been amply compen sated this morning. Consols opened at 601, with a very brisk market, and by twelve o'clock had reached 604, ' About this period a broker of eminence sold 100,000 for money, and they fell to 8011; there was still, however, a strong appearance of stability in the market, which, at the close of the day, may be quoted at 803 i for this, and 80a for the November Account. The Bears, it is said, have taken alarm at the general appearance of steadiness which pervades the Funds, and have bought up their own ac counts. This is a very probable circumstance, and, if go, has assisted the advance of price which is observable in the Market to-day. Exchequer Bilk and India Bonds are stationary at last quotations. In the Foreign Market also there has been more doing. Mexican, ex-dividend,, have reached WI to 1, which is equal to 633 with it. It appears that a further convoy of specie is now on its way from Mexico to Vera Cruz, for shipment to England, on account of the Dividends. Of course, this amount is wholly independent of that which is coming by the Hussar. Colombian are at present a dead letter, and aff o rd on ly t h e nom i na l quotat i on o f 341. , There have been some purchasers of Chiller), from 37¢ to 38, but nothing further is known as to the Dividends, the Buenos Ayres packet not having arrived. The Thetis, Sir Jon N PIII 1.1.1310 11 F., which took our Lord PoxsoNav, reached Portsmouth yesterday, in 5l days, having left Rio otrthe I Ith of August, but she dots not bring any news of importance, beyond the fact that there was no prospect of a termination of the war. Those British merchantmen that had been taken possession of for breaking the blockade (less fortunate than the Monarch) had been ordered to dis charge their cargoes into the Rio do Janeiro Custom-house, to await decision. Peruvian Bonds are 26 to 27 ; why they , should be so far below the Chilian does not appear, when in paint of fact, they are upon a par in p o i nt o f d e f au l t : In Greek and Spanish there is any thing but a brisk Mar- I Let ; the former are at 131 14, and the latter at 101. Shares are rather more active. Del Monte are better, at only 90 discount, while Brazil have advanced to 13, and Tlalpuxahtta 30 premium, and the latter in tire face of the call of $O/. per Share for the middle of the month, The Corn Market has been very firm te-day. The holders of Oats stoutly demanded an advance of a shilling per quarter,' which was very reluctantly acceded to by those whose necessities would not admit of further delay. Other sorts of Grain fully maintained their last quotation. The Colonial Maiket continues very fiat. - .- --. 1 4.-- ce.l2_____. inonal,"".waltati. smueoeuilize. at Reboil.

Mr. Jerrie were interred in a vault in the old church, and the reaps:e m it to his memory showed how universally he irstemeereed, All the shops were closely shut up, and mmirof tbe in. habitants have gone into mourning. The vilifiers and in. habitants were admitted into the galleries of the church, which were nearly filled by ten o'clock. The band of die hlontpellier Spa having ceased playing at half.past nine o'clock, an immense crowd awaited the arrival of themourn ful procession in the Church-yard. At half-past eleven it entered the clidrch, the pulpit, &c. being covered with black cloth. immediately the organ commenced playing the "Bid March in Saul." The burial service was read by the Rev. Mr. hVilliams, of Charlton Kings. The Anthem " I barest Cod always before me," was very elf, ctively sung by the choir. The funeral was attended by most of the children of the resident gentlemen of Cheltenham and its vicinity, as well as the clergy, of all denominations. After the corpse had been deposited in the vault, it was affecting to see the multitudes who thronged to take a last glimpse of the remains of their beloved Pastor. The late Mr. Jervis, had for many months, on the Sun. day evenings, delivered a series of discourses on the Litur gy, and lately on the Burial Service. There wanted but one lecture to complete it; the text was to have been " 0 (heath), where is thy string? 0 grave, where is thy victory ?" Sir Henry Belford, Dr. ilfacmicbael, Mr. Macgregor, and Mr. Simpson, visited the Berke of York yesterdey at the residence of the Duke of Rutland, in Arlington-scree;.

Sir Charles transacted business yesterday at the office of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. The Quebec Ga::ctie says that Mr. Kean has expressed s wish to pass his days in Canada. His Majesty's ship Thetis, Captain Sir John Phillimore, has arrived from Rio de Janeiro, charged with despatches from Lord Ponsonby. She arrived in 51 days at Ports mouth. Papers of the 11th of August have been received by her, but their contents arc unimportant. There was no prospect of the war ending with the Buenos Ayrean Go. vernincnt, nor had any late advice, been received from that quarter. Some forgeries on the Bank of Brazil had been detected. The private letters mention, that orders had been received to discharge the cargoes of the reeds sent to Rio Janeiro de for breach of the, blockade of Buenos Ayres into the custom-house storehouses, to await further proceedings. Lord Ponsonhy was about to proceed mete River Plate in the Doris frigate, and the English Aingiral had sailed for Bahia. A copy of a letter, dated Vienna, 12th May, is given in one of the papers, from Don Miguel to his brother, expressing his regard and loyalty to his Imperial Majesty. It was reported at Rio de Janeiro that Lord Ponsonby and the Captain of, his Majesty's ship Thetis had had some high words on the voyage out, and that the latter hail ordered Lord Ponsinby below in cons:- sequence ; but we cannot credit it. His Majesty's ship Thetis, arrived from the Brazils, it reported to bring a large sum in specie to the merchants. Sending bills to this country fur a length of time has beta out of the question. Papers and letters from Rio Janeiro were yesterday morning received to the 14th August; they confirm nue statement, that no recent engagement has taken place be tween the hostile fli ets in the river Plate. There is no po litical intelligence in these papers. 'fhe private letters state there was a gossiping story circulated respecting a fracas between Lord Ponsoeby and the Commander of lie Majesty's ship 'Thetis. On the voyage outward the former, it is said, had appeared in a cotton jacket, which the Cap. tain of an English man of wat would not brook, and or• dered him below, after interchanging some sharp words. Leiters from Peru announce that President Bolivar had entered into a marriage contract with Miss Augusta Hare sister of the lady of' Commodore Hull, and who accom panied her to the Pacific. [in answer to a correspondent on the above subject, we mention, on the information of a gentleman acquainted with General Bolivar, that his age is about 42 ; that he has never been married ; and that the young ladies alluded to by our correspondent are his nieces.]—Coiomhia io Senti,e/. The next arrivals from Batavia will be interesting: they will bring us the particulars of the commencement of the campaign between the Dutch tr ou p e and the natives. W e have letters before es, dated the 19th of June ; they state that a battle would calmly take place between the Deitch troops and the natives within a week from that date; the latter were in strong force in a fortified hill twelve miles from Djocgo, under the command of Depo Migara, a:- tended by several of the Native Princes. 114eauee OF MR. PEDGER, AMERICAS: CONSCL AT noun - rise—Letters front Bsgota, to the 19th of July. an nounce, with feelings of horror and regret, that J. H. E. Fullger, Esq. the United States Consul in that capital, was inhumanly murdered in his own bed in the night of die 13th of July. Ile was stabbed through the heart with his own sword, his throat cut from ear to ear, and his trunks rifled of their contents. Several persons had been apprehended as being implicated in the murder.

His death is uni versally lamented, and no means will be left unemployed to bring the perpetrators of the crime to condign puni,hroent. Tae POI.ICE MAGISTRATES OF CALCUTTA.—A tri'd• which seems to have excited a strong feeling throughout all classes of society' in India, took place before the Su preme Court, at Calcutta, on the 2lst of April. The ease was nothing less than a prosecution against the four Magis trates of the Calcutta P dice (J. B. Birch, W. C. lila quiere, P. Andrews, and A. St. L. M'Mahon, &qrs.), kr corruptly conspiring to prevent the course of Justices tat having refused to take the oath and deposition of one - bee Monoonah, a Portuguese female, when she offered ID swear the same, and required them to take sureties of the peace against certain Chinese who had threatened to take her life. The evidence, which was of great length, did not support all th e statements i n the indictment: and, after hearing the Advocate-General for the defence, and the summing up of the Judge, the Ary found a verdict or Guilty against Mr. John Brereton Birch only, upon one the counts. The Chief Justice sentenced Mr. Birch to pay a flue of 200 r u p ees to t h e Ki ng; adding, " that imPtr it would not affect hi s c h aracter as an upr i g h t 34 agistrate..l
