Honduras Gazettes have been received at :he North and South American Coffee-house to ;he 15th March, from which we make the fol- (wing extract : - - BELIZE, MARCH 14.—We have received advices from Central America, from which we argue that a peace, or at least an accommodation, may take place between the con tending parties of San Salvador and Guatemala. The troops of the former hail, as stated in our last, encircled the city, but in consequence of a reinforcement having arrived, they had retreated to the old city of Guatemala, where the head-quarters were established under General Morazan. The reinforcement, in their march towards the city, upon the Mexican road, encountered a division of the San Salvador troops, under Saget, which they cut in pieces, and then entered the city without opposition. An advance guard of the San Salvador troops were scour ing the roads, and reached as far as Los Platanas. The San Salvador army had levied contributions of upwards of eighty thousand dollars in the province of Chiquemala. It is reported that General Pren had been assassinated by the inhabitants of Quesaltepeque. Despatches were received at the Colonial Office this morning from the Earl of BELNIORE, Governor of Jamaica. The Dukes of ORLEANS and CHARTRES visited the Duke of WELLINGTON, in Down ing -street, this morning, after the Review. GRAND REVIEW OF CAVALRY AND IN FANTRY IN HYDE PARK.-(THIS ,DAY.) The Ist and 2d battalions of Grenadier Guards, the 2d battalion 3d Foot Guards, the Ist regiment of Life Guards, the Royal Horse Guards (Blues), the Tenth Regiment of Hussars, and the Fifteenth Regiment of Light Dragoons, were reviewed this morn ing, at eleven o'clock, in Hyde I'ark, by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland, Field-Marshal, and Colonel of the Royal Regiment of Horse Gua ds.— His Grace the Duke of Wellington was on duty, as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards; General Lord Hill, the General commanding in chief, with the whole of his Staff, were present on the occasion; Lord Lynedoch, and between thirty and forty other General and Staff Officers. The troops formed into line, when the Duke of Orleans and the Marquis de Chartres, who wore plain clothes, passed in front and rear and took up a position in the centre, when the troops marched in re view order,—first by troops and companies, in ordinary time, and then by files of three ; the Bands of each Regiment played as they passed the Staff. The Band of the Sd Guards remained on the ground after the Re view had terminated, and delighted the very numerous and plendid company, by the execution of some very beautiful modern pieces of music. The Duke of Wellington left the ground at the head of the Grenadier Guards, and proceeded with them through the Parks, at tended by a great concourse of people, whe re peatedly expressed their delight at seeing the hero at the head of his own regiment of his Majesty's Body Guard. He left the regiment at the corner of the Mall, and proceeded at a foot pace to his private door of the Treasury, where, when he descended from his charger he was greeted with the cheers of the assembled population. We noticed many of the nobi lity amongst a splendid show of female fashion and elegance. Lady Londonderry appeared in the elegant dress of the 10th Regiment of Hussars, of which Regiment the Noble Marquis is the Colonel. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S. DEAL, MAY 26.-.--Wind N.E.—Throughout last night and this day it continued a gale. The Mary; South Seaman, has gone, it is supposed, for Ports mouth, with loss of anchor and cable. The Hutchin son, from Demerara, was supplied with an anchor and cable yesterday, and remains. The two East India yachts remain, one of them has driven con siderably; several pieces of wreck are floating past, we infer some foreign galliot, from their appear ance, may have been lost—the gale has somewhat abated this evening.

The Nottingham, Way, and the Providence, Bolt, from Weymouth, were driven on shore on Monday night near Portland, but expected to be got off. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF LORDS. BANGOR PEERAGE. The LORD CHANCELLOR, at the sitting of the House this morning, intimated that it was his opi nion the claimant had made out his title to the Peerage. (ANOTHER. ACCOUNT.) This morning, between nine and ten o'clock, the follow ing regiments marched into Hyde Park and took up their positions in the following order : —The right wing near the Serpentine River, and the left towards the Park-wall, at Bayswater. The 2d regiment of Life Guards under the command of Colonel Lygon took the right of the line, then the Royal Horse Guards commanded by Colonel Hill, the 2d and 3d battalion of Grenadier Guards commanded by Colonel Woodford and Lord Saltoun, the first battalion of the 3d regiment of Foot Guards under the command of Colonel Keates, the 10th Royal Hussars under the com mand of Lord Londonderry, and the 15th Hussars com manded by Colonel Shackwell, were on the left. At half past ten o'clock his Royal Highness the Duke of Orleans left Blake's Hotel, Jermyn-street, attended by an escort, and followed by eight of the royal grooms. The Duke, who was dressed in an olive coloured brown close coat, white trowsers, and waistcoat, with a splendid star on his left breast, mounted on a white charger, followed by the Duke of Chartres, dressed in a light blue hussar uniform, and a number of English and foreign General Officers, entered the Park at eleven o'clock ; shortly after which the line was formed, and the splendid cortege took up a position in the front of the centre of the line. The troops saluted, and the whole of the bands of the different regiments I struck up " God save the King." The Duke, attended by a splendid military Staff, then rode to the right of the line and proceeded along the front, and returned by the rear to the original position. The troops then marched by in open order and slow time, and re-formed in line, after which they marched by in quick time, and again formed in line. The Duke and the whole of his retinue then advanced to the centre and complimented the commanding officer on the superior appearance of the men and horses, and their soldier-like appearance. The bands then played the royal salute, and the review terminated at one o'ciock. The troops were commanded by Lord Hill. Sir H. Vi vian commanded the cavalry, and Colonel Townsend, of the Grenadier Guards, the infantry. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland, Prince Leopold, the Marquis of Anglesea, Duke of Wellington, and several other officers of distinction were on the ground. There could not be less than 20,000 persons present, amongst whom were a number of elegantly dressed females On the Duke and his suite leaving the Park they were warmly greeted by the populace, which his Royal Highness returned with great affability. The number of troops reviewed were upwards of 2,000. On account of the Park not being sufficiently spacious, the usual movements practised at a review were dispensed with. Upon the Duke of Wellington leaving the Review, he was followed by an immense mob of persons, who cheered him in the most enthusiastic manner, as he proceeded at a gentle pace out of the Park. His Grace was unattended by any of the Staff, and just as be had gained the road be was surrounded by at least 500 people, all pressing forward to salute him ; we observed at one time half-a-dozen people on either side the horse, endeavouring to obtain a shake of his hand ; at length both his hands were grasped with such fervency that he had no power whatever over his charger, and two men actually led the animal through the crowd. The Duke received the congratula tions of the populace with the greatest good humour, and repeatedly cried out, " Mind the horse, my good people ; take care he don't kick you ; you will have me off." This caution, however, was unheeded, and they continued press ing upon him till a gentleman on horseback,. in a private dress (whose name we could not learn), rode up to his Grace's assistance, and they, with some difficulty, pro ceeded together down Constitution-hill, into St. James's park, followed by the multitude, whose shouts rent the air. Here a party of the Bow-street patrol came up, and es corted the Duke to the back gate of the Treasury, where his Grace alighted, and having given a key to the gentle man who accompanied him, the latter opened the door, and the Duke entered, having first, with the greatest ur banity, bowed to the persons assembled. His Grace, we are happy to say, looked better than be has for some time, and appeared highly delighted and amused with the true English feeling that has been evinced towards him. STATE OF THE TowN.—Since our last pub lication, we are happy to say that nothing whatever has occurred to disturb the peace of the town, with the excep tion of a slight assault upon some of the constables last night; which arose, it appears, merely from the circum stance of a number of disorderly people getting together to see a fight between two men near St. George's church. A party of these, after the fight was over, adjourned to near the gas-works, when another fight ensued, and Simi.- sos, the officer, with one or two special constables, being near the spot, interfered to put an end to it. They were, however, attacked with stones, but without any of them being hit. In the mean time information had been sent to the police-office, and Mr. LAVENDER set off for the ! try since 1800. Felt curious to see the monument, spot, under the apprehension that things were much more ; in censequence of the interest excited there about serious than they really were, l e aving word for Mr. I it. Heard a person of the name of Walker talk i BENTLEY, one of the const a bl e s, to f o llow him, and or- , aoout the monument; Mr. Causton, at Walker's, dered out the guard of Dragoons stationed at Smithfield two years ago sent for him. He ar d no thing parti market. Mr. BENTLEY arrived soon after, and the streets , Nevertoldcolas respecting the monument before that time. in the neighbourhood were scoured by the cavalry, but the c before them so m uc h as t o his know disturbance bad entirely ceased some time before their arrival. — . Manchester Mercury. i ledge of it as he had to-day. Mr. , Causton took down his evidence in writing. He then told him parts of what. he had now stated. There was no necessity for talking about any of the monuments in the church that he was aware of. Believed th( re was 1001. reward offered for any person who would recollect the inscription on the monument. By the LORD CHANCELLOR—Had seen the re ports with reference to the inscription, and the pro c•eedings in this House in the newspapers. By Sir JAMES SCARLETT—ThOUght the name Cotton was not in such large characters as the name of Leigh. Two persons named Tooth and Whitehead went with him to Stoneleigh Church last year for a walk. Thought it was the autumn of last year when they went. Saw Webster's mo nument there. Did not read it through. By Lord HOOD—Did not know the person who came from Walker's to him. Went without know ing the business he was going upon; young Walker met him, and introduced him to Mr. Causton. He mentioned something to young Walker when he went upon Phillips's business; stated that ite went to Stone leigh school for some years; cannot say exactly how it came out, but suspected that he was wanted relative to the monument. John Toone examined—Was born in Stoneleigh, left off going to church when he was 19 years of age—was a singer there. Edward Bayliss examined—Was a baker, residing at Leamington, in the service of the Hon. Mrs. Leigh, which he left in 1819. Believed that the pulling down the wall and repairing the Church was a pre text for getting rid of the monument. John Willcocks, examined by Mr. KELLY—Was a bricklayer; was in the habit of carrying the letter bag from Stoneleigh Abbey. Saw some men carry. ing, what I supposed to be a monument into the first wine cellar, several years ago. Followed them to the door. Mrs. Leigh went into the cellar before the men, lighting them with a candle. I saw no other female there, except Mrs. Leigh. He then returned to the steward's office. Saw the men in the hall sometime after, but not Mrs. Leigh. Never saw the monument of Christopher Leigh after that period. By Sir JAMES SCARLETT—It was either 1812 or 1813 that the transaction in the cellar took place. Believed it was in the Spring. Knew the stone that was being carried into the cellar to be that which he had seen in the church, in consequence of the M. D. C. upon it. Mr. Causton sent for me at Coventry. He was the first person he told the story to after the circumstance of the hand-bill. Thomas Smith, a labourer, lived at Stoneleigh the whole of his life, with the exception of six years. This witness corroborated the evidence given by many of the previous witnesses. He could read a chapter in the Bible and Testament, had read a few historical works, but any thing further was quite out of his line. Thomas Hall Vaughten—Was present at a con versation between the Rev. Mr. Roberts, the rector of Stoneleigh, Mrs. Roberts, and Mr. and Mrs. Sampson. Recollected Mrs. Roberts saying, if she was called upon to speak to the Leigh monument being in Stoneleigh church, she would do so. Mrs. Vaughten, the wife of the last witness, was next called. Mr. ADAMS observed that these were all the wit nesses be had in attendance at present. There were others, who considered they had not had sufficient notice ; he had therefore to ask that the further consideration might stand over, and that their Lord ships would grant an order commanding them to attend. The CHAIRMAN obs.erved, that it was against the practice of the House to grant such an order, till it had been proved that the expences had been paid. The LORD CHANCELLOR proposed that Counsel should sum up the case on Tuesday next, Monday being the first day of term. Sir J. SCARLETT was extremely anxious the case should be brought to a close. He knew enough of it to be quite certain that it was founded in delusion and fabrication. The further consideration of the claim was ad journed till Tuesday next, on which day it was un derstood Counsel were to sum up the case. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. ROBLEY V. BROOKE. Mr. TRESLOVE was speaking the whole morning in this part•heard cause, which has already occupied the time of the Court three days. It is a suit insti tuted for an account of great importance to the parties concerned, but of no public interest. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. THE KING V. THE CORPORATION OF BERWICK-UPON- TWEED. Mr. CAMPBELL (with whom was Mr. ARCHBOLD) showed cause against a rule obtained by the Soli citor-General, commanding the Mayor and Alder men of Berwick-upon-Tweed to swear in James Forster as one of the Serjeants-at-Mace of that Cor poration. The affidavit of James Forster stated that, by the charter of that place, the Serjeants-at-Mace were to be elected by the Mayor and four Aldermen; that on the 7th of last Octoberi the deponent, James Forster, was elected, at a meeting of the Corpora tion of that borough, having three Bailiffs in his fa vour, and that one Bailiff and the Mayor voted for another person. He was thus duly elected, but the Mayor refused to swear him in, but swore in an other person, named Scowler. The Learned Counsel contended the election of Forster was informal, as the meeting of the 7th of October was not convened for the purpose of electing a Sergeant at Mace, but for considering the case of Scowler, who had been previously elected, with the Mayor's sanction, ac cording to the charter of the borough. He also contended that this was not the proper mode of proceeding, as, instead of a mandamus, a writ of quo warranto should have been applied for, the office being full at the time, being occupied by Scowler. —...___ The COURT directed the rule to be made ab• solute.

On Wednesday, when the grave-digger was busied in his vocation, he was astonished at perceiving the bottom of the grave to be on fire. A number of people immediately collected and bore witness to the marvelous circumstance. The flaming earth and stone thrown out actually burnt the gi ass on the side of the grave. The explanation appears to be that the earth and a kind of ironstone, which exhibited the phenomenon longest, had been strongly saturated with phosphorus supplied by the bones, and ignited by the friction of tle spade or the ex, posure to the #lll9,Sphtrf...--4yr 44Verfiffn THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

The examination of witnesses was resumed in this Peerage. Susannah Baylis, examined by Mr. ADAMS— Was four score years old; born at Stoneleigh; lived there forty years and upwards ; went regularly to Stoneleigh Church ; the pew in which she sat was in the middle aisle; Sir Christopher Leigh's monument was on the wall opposite to where she sat; she be lieved there was on the monument" To or In the memory of Sir Christopher Leigh." She did not recollect any thing further on it, except in Latin. There were X's and L's on the monu ment. She would aver that the monument was in the church for the first forty years she was there. Her father kept the Swan Inn at Stoneleigh, and was also a farmer; he was also a coachman to Thomas Lord Leigh, by whose instrumentality he was put in possession of the public house. Cross-examined by the SOLICITOR-GENERAL—I never thought it worth my while to read Webster's monument. Believed that the date and year was at the beginning of the Leigh monument and not trt the end. By Mr. COMMON-SERGEANT—Did not know which was nearest the door, the Leigh or the Web ster monument. Could not recollect telling a person that Sir Christopher's monument was nearest the door. Was quite sure she had never told him an untruth. Very few words on the Leigh monument that she could express or understand. The Web ster monument had more writing on it. The Leigh monument was larger, up and down, than the Webster monument. It was something like the pannels of one of the doors of the House, something like an old fashioned cane chair at the top. Edward Baylis is no relation to her. Re collected him living at Stoneleigh Abbey. He now resided at Leamington ;he was a baker. She first mentioned the stone about eight years ago, when a gentleman came to inquire about it. The stone was broken about the middle; she did not know that it was cracked. Its colour was between light and dark, and appeared like veined marble; the let ters were black. By Mr. ADAMS—She could not tell what number of lines of English there was on the monument be fore the Latin began. Esther Stanley, examined by Mr. KELLY—She was born in the parish of Stoneleigh ; was in the habit of going to Stoneleigh church till she was twenty years of age. She remembered the ' , tame of Cotton being on the Leigh monument, there were three or four other names which she did not recollect. By Mr. DENMAN—She was forty-eight years of age ; was married in 1808. Did not go to Stone leigh church till after that time. Believed she went to the church in 1803 with her mother, but would not swear she saw the monument then. The mo nument was on the right of the seat in which she sat. Could not remember which monument was nearest the porch, believed the Leigh's. It was a dirty colour, but easily read. Did not think it was defaced. Fourteen years ago her husband kept a hotel at Leamington ; that was probably the reason of her being called as a witness. Recollected a great deal of conversation about the claim. Had some conversa tion with Mr. Bankes upon the subject. By the LORD CHANCELLOR—Mr. Bankes did not take down in writing what she said about the mo nument. By Mr. DENMAN—Made an affidavit about five or six years ago. By the LORD CHANCELLOR—Did not recollect whether the other monuments in the church were defaced by time. The Dudley monument was kept in a beautiful state of preservation. By Lord REDEIDALE—Was living at Stoneleigh when Mrs. Leigh died ; never heard any inquiries during Mrs. Leigh's life about the family. Mrs. Leigh did not go to church as there was a chapel in the house. By the LORD CHANCELLOR—Her husband never was a tenant to the Leigh family, or applied to be one. By Mr. DENMAN—The monument was oblong; was sure it was stone; thought it was a species of marble. By the Bishop of LLANDAFF—Leigh's monu meat was nearest where she sat. By the LORD CHANCELLOR—The Dudley monu ment was a good deal talked off. - Eaton, examined by Mr. ADAMS—Was an engraver; lived at Coventry; went to school at Hadleigh for about three years; went to Stone leigh church ; rung the bells there; recollected the Leigh and Webster monuments; there was on the Leigh monument the words Leigh, Wigan, Lan cashire, and Cotton; the Leigh monument was the largest; the date was in large Roman letters ; last year went to Stoneleigh, but did not see the Leigh monument there. By the SOLICITOR-GENERAL—Was sure the words " Wigan, Lancashire," were on the monu ment. He believed there were words before Christopher Leigh. Believed the word Honourable was there, but could not speak positively to that. There were parts which he could not understand. Did not take so much notice of the Webster monu ment as of the Leigh one. Could not say whether the whole of the Webster monument was in English. By Lord REDESDALE—CouId not tell what the words Cotton, Wigan, or Lancashire, related to. By the Bishop of LLANDAFF—I thought the Leigh monument was 3 feet 6 inches long, and 2 ft. and a fraction wide. By Sir JAMES SCARLETT—Had lived at Coven. ARRIVALS. Wheat. Barley. I Oats. I Flour.

THE KlNG.—Yesterday his MAJESTY con siderably extended his dinner party at St. James's Palace, and this day the number of royal and distinguished guests will be more numerous than it was yesterday; but to. morrow the enter tainment will be upon a large and mag nificent scale, and will include the Knin's Ministers, their Ladies, all the friends and associates of his MAJESTY, the Ambassadors, and the Duke of ORLEANS and his son. In the evening there will be a grand ball and supper, at which, it is said, the young Queen of PORTUG A L and her suite will be present. Next Tuesday is the day fixed upon by his MAJESTY to leave town for the Royal Cottage ; there have, however, been so many changes made in the royal d..tprrnination, that it would excite very little Sur. prise if the period for the departure of the KING ' were to be deferred for a few days longer. On Monday her Royal Highness the Duchess of KENT had a dinner party at her apartments in Ken sington Palace. Amongst the guests were the Prince LEOPOLD, the Princess SOPHIA, &c. The Tyrolese family, RAmea, were in attendance, and were received by the royal and distinguished party in the most flattering manner. After their performance, her Royal Highness was gra ciously pleased to accept of an offering (the portrait of the great patriot HoFint) ; in return for which, they were, presented with valuable presents—such as a golden cross set in pearls and stones, the portraits of their Royal High nesses, &c., and were dismissed with the most friendly as surance of satisfaction at their performance. His MAJESTY will give a grand dinner to a numerous party to-morrow, at his Palace in St. James's. The same evening a Ball will be given to the juvenile branches of the Nobility and Gentry. The Duchess of CLARENCE, the Duchess of .SAYE WEIMAR, and the Prince and Princess of SAXE WEIMAR, visited the Princess AUGUSTA yesterday morn ing, at her residence, in the King's Palace, St. James's. The whole party afterwards proceeded to the Adult Orphans' Concert, at the King's Concei t-rooms, Hanover square. Prince LEOPOLD entertained the Duke of, ORLEANS and the Duke DE CHARTRES to dinner on Sun day, at Marlborough-house, Pall-mall. There were pre sent, to meet their Highnesses, the LORD CHANCELLOR and Lady LYNDHURST, the Duke of WELLINGTON, Earl GREY, Viscount MELVILLE, Lord HILL, Lord and Lady DURHAM, Mr. Secretary and Mrs. PEEL, the CHANCEL • Loa of the EXCHEQUER, and Sir GEO. MURRAY. Viscount PEDRO BIANCA (late Minister .rom the Emperor of the BRAZILS to the Court of France) has arrived in town from Paris. The Viscount has been presented to the young Queen of PORTUGAL, and had in terviews both on Monday and yesterday with the Duke of I ORLEANS. The Earl of DARNLEY has presented a peti tion, claiming the " Dukedom of Lennox," to his MA JESTY, praying his MAJESTY to cause inquiry to be made into the same. The KING forwarded it to the House of Lords, as is the usual course in such cases ; and their Lordships hare directed it to be referred to a Committee of Privileges. A Nottingham Correspondent says that the Nottingham Yeomanry are out and training, but that they are not very well pleased at the reduction in their pay. kg CLARE ELECTION.—We understand that a meeting of certain Aristocrats of Clare took place in Dublin on Friday.—Major-General Sir AUGUSTINE Fzrz- GERALD in the Chair. It was, we are told, resolved, that Mr. VISEY FITZGERALD should be memorialed to offer himself as a candidate, and that a trusty band of deputies should forthwith proceed to Clare, to use all endeavours in their power to obstruct and invalidate the registrie% o f the O'Connellites. There were, we understand, only, very faint hopes entertained by the knowing ones that a suc cessful, issue would attend this experiment.•—Dnbliu Morning Register. RADICAL REFORM.—We understand, on good authority, that the Gods of Covent-garden have accepted the Chiltern Hundreds, to make room for the Devils in the one shilling gallery, for the benefit of the Printers' Pension Society this evening. Covent-garden Theatre is expected to be unu . wally attractive this evening, when its exce!;i ent pet ._ formances will be for the benefit of the Pri it will suppor t b th e e p i r w- o s d t uctive of much ers' P o e Pension s itheon benevolentPSoucbileiSociety—an aWn ee e e Ins tit u t i onelrVe l e y understand, hopclea rank have promised their mPAuential patronage on this occasion. Madame Vosnus will give some of her most enchanting songs, and much amusement is anticipated from the delivery of an original Address, in the character of ft Printer's Devil, by that very clever actor, KEELEIr t wh o will doubtless be accompanied as usual by " Laughter holding both his sides." It is a common observation in this country, that the man has the best knowledge of the law who has the wisdom to keep himself out of it. One 'or expel i two of our friends in the North have had an mental proof of the truth of the remark. * Some ti me tow:'n disputed about place in which the ago two individuals in a neighbouring halftahgeai justice s a s tt c io r c o ne r e v o n of . f htihi A ee pp a::::::ca withi r ll r i carried x e i pt etnoctehs.e Court Cons c o i f ouso affair happened was the conseD:aence.

JAMES'S PARK.—The scheme of acquir ing a penny each from every person who wlsted to rest his limbs in a chair in St. James's Park, is likely to turn out a complete failure, the Commissioners of Woods and Fo rests having given orders for 160 circular benches to be placed in the most shady situations round the varin s trees, for the accommodation of the public, gratin. On Saturday several were fixed, and on Sunday we oticed the penny chairs were kluio s t deserted. The remaind e r of the seats will be laiace4 as soon as}Bey can be got ready.

On Friday last the band took their station near the Palace, and continued playing favourite airs from four to six o'clock in the afternoon, to the extreme gratification of the numerous elegantes who were enjoying the delight ful promenade. The musicians complain that they have no objection to the public hearing their music, gratis, during the promenade, but that it materially affects them, by pre venting their attending to their theatrical engagements OR those evenings. Mr. KEELEY and Miss GOWARD ha', e f or some time been united in the bonds of "holy 17, atr i rnony.
