The Directors and Committee have commenced suits, criminal and civil, against Messrs.

O r d ers to some extent, founded upon this expectation, had been given. The exchange on London was more in favour of this country, viz., 84. per cent. at New York and 121 to I- at Philadelphia.

By way of Panama, we have adviees from Peru to the 18th February. An Outline of the news is contained in the annexed letter from our correspondent : quipa, Puno, and MO CALLAO, FEBRUARY, 18, 1841.=—Since my last of the sth ultimo, the anticipated political convulsion in Peru. and Bolivia has taken place. Colonel Vivanco has been proclaimed Supreme Chief notwithstanding General San Roman, who in c tl , t r e ra deyn ,l r ld tin n el: qu , , , . was placed in command of the former by Vivanco, has declared against him with about 1,000 men, yet he ap pears to be ra pidly gaining. ground, as the whole com munity is decidedly against the.tovernment of Gamarra, who has degraded the country to such an extent as to andLarraig(o I ,e r n ig:. l ) v ay, have who have place it in the class of a Chilian col ony, ' sustained by Chilian influence and subje ct to Chilia n control. On the 21st ultimo, a ge neral risin g tool: place in Bo livia, ivi a., proclaimedh e ttde headed Generals r G a l e s t) Iraitri: a i n 1 pro claimed General Santa C ruz Su p reme Protector. This officer was expected a Guayaquil about th e 1 5 t h or 20th ult., whore he was to hold himself in readiness to em bark for Peru with a sma ll force on the first favourable opportunity ; and as such opp ortunit y is nonroWered, we Generals are momentarily expecting him in ' 'Peru. On his ar rival, the downfall of the degraded government is inevit able. In fact, nothing prevents its immediate overthrow but the want of some officer of rank and influence under whom all parties would unite. This meeting was held on Tuesday night in the lh.yal Amphitheatre, Liverpool, by the Friends o Free-trade, of which Sir Joshua is the steady advocate. A large number of influential gentlemen, decided anti-monapo lists, were present, and Col. Williams took the Chair. His remarks upon Lord Sandon, who now represented the borough, were true and cogent. He had often told them, he said, of the vast importance of having proper men in the House of Commons—their own House ; it. • was their own House, and in sending such men, Liver pool had not performed its duty to the country. He was not a flatterer. He sought no popular acclamation _ —he did his duty, and thy' might take it as they thought •fit. lie had glanced over, for he had not reati it, he copld not—an•address from Lord Sandon. Here was a man who came down to recommend himself under Re form principles, a man who was known to have been an hereditary rider on„the people—(Loud laughter and cheers)—an offshoot from a bodrwho hid ever been' averse to , all kind of improvement ; he had the leaven of - .that House in him, and yet he had beenchosen to repre sent Liverpool. / Mr. Rathbone, in risings said they had -given more than three times three Cheers for Sir Joshua Wabpslev. • He believed it was Sheridan who said, " I - have the ' voices of the people, but where the devil are their votes ?"—(Laughter and applause.) Let Sir Joshua Walinsley have your votes.(Cheers, and criq or " We By our wives and children, by our home? by that dear country which we all love, as we have the power, let us show also that we have tfie principle. J. C. Ewart, Esq., snonded the introduction of Sir Joshua, and the cheers on the Occasion acre loud -nai -1 king protracted. . • - • * • On the introdUction of Sir Joshua W.nlinsley to the • meeting, the burst of applause was rapturous bey, rid ex pression.. Sir Joshua Walmslev, who seemed much affected by this demonstration of attachment, congratulated himself on the affections and feelings of the large portion of Liberal electors he carried with him. His speech, elo quent throughout., and advocative of the great free trade principles upheld by the immortal Huskisson, evoked at various passages tremendous applause. A motion to appoint a committee was proposed, put, and unanimously carried. John Taylor, Esq„ moved the next resolution, hop ing that Liverpool would also powerfully espouse Lord Palmer ton's cause, and thereby return two Liberal Members. Mr. Alderman Shield seconded the resolution, which - was put and carried by acclamation.. - - • • Three times. three hearty cheers were then ;given fln. the . ' Queen, and the same compliinent to, Sir 'Joshua WalinSlenifd Lord Palmerston; after which ilie ifeet 7 - ing separated. NOTTINGIIA3L—EarIy on Monday Mr. Larpent arrived inNottingliam,and it was rumoured that,ifhis official duties would permit, Sir John Hobliouse would be in Notting ham by the five o'clock train from London. This ru mour spread with such rapidity that long before the. ar rival of the train, the streets leading to the railway station were thronged with people ; and along-the road leading to the carriage entrance to the station, a vast multitude had assembled—whilst a number of the leaders of the Liberal party were admitted in the yard, to receive ,the Right Honourable Gentleman. When the London train arrived, a hearty cheer from the individuals congregated in the yard, told that Sir John had ezime ; and the multitude assembled without, catching the sound, rent the air with their acclamations. Sir John stepped . into an open carriage, and his sup porters having formed into a line, left the staticn yard, preceded by a band, and a number of flags with various inscriptions —" No Corn Monopoly"—" No Su gar Monopoly"—" Hobhonse and Free Trade"—" Lam pent and.No Corn-law"—The Rights of Industry," and many others. The. procession moved slowly along Ca nal-street, Lister-gate, Peter gate, Church-side, and Wheeler-gate, into the Market-place ; and then up Beast-market-hill, and down the Long-row to the White Lion Inn, Clumber-street, amidst the most enthusiastic and deafening cheers. Sir John immediately presented himself at the window, and briefly said—ln spite of all the predictions of his opponents, he found himself amongst them, and was always happy, by every means in his power, to do his duty to his constituents, for his consti tuents they were still, and he entertained no doubt would be in the next Parliament.--(lmmense cheering.) After alluding to the great questions before the country, Sir John said he should fearlessly let every elector go to the poll, and he had no doubt of being their representative in the next Parliament.—(Cheers.), G. H. Liirpent, Esq., then presented himself .at the window, and was received with the most deafening cheers. He hrlefly called their attention to, the nature of the contest in which they were engaged—whether they should have cheapbread.and..a.bater trule,vr,slear sugar, dear bread, and a declining' trade—and withdrew amidst enthusiastic cheering. The people of Nottingham were anxious to testify their grateful regard to the representative of the first Cabinet that has struck. a decisive blow at monopolies, and attempted to legislate in behalf of the industrious classes of this country. The reception which Sir John experienced, is a sufficient proof that for a Cabinet to gain the affections of the people, it has only to propose honest and just measures for the consideration of the House of Commons : and at the same time sincerely and fearlessly give those measures their support. YARMOUTll.—Nothin,x can exceed the confidence ex- pressed by the Reformers of this borough, as to the re • suit of the coming elections, even should so improbable an event as. a. contest take place here. We understand the untiring efforts of certain -Tory gentlemen among us to procure two Conservatives to fight the borough have hitherto proved abortive, and some of them have returned home quite crest-fallen. Report says the Carl ton Club assured the candidate-seekers that they could invest their capital in far better securities than Yar mouth could offer? And the probabilty is that no one will be found who will have the hardihood to contest a borough where defeat is inevitable. We happen to know several 'furies, of very considerable influence, who are desirous to avoid a contest, declaring it madness to throw away their money. Besides the costs of a contest, which will be unusually heavy, the Tories are still indebttd to the freemen in their interest for all the head-money for two elections, which will amount to something handsome, and which we are assured must be paid in full before a single freeman will vote for them. It is also considered more than probable that the Whigs will contest the eastern division of the county with every prospect of success.--Cambridge Advertiser. • CffELTENIIIM, jtiNE 15.—(From a Cerrespimdent.)— Cheltenham is all bustle and excitement in respect of the elections. Mr. C. F. Berkeley arrived in Cheltenham early on Monday, and commenced his canvass yesterday. The Tories have at length named Mr. Agg Gardner, the principal brewer, to come forward, and it is said he is th,e only Man they could have brought forward with a Aiiirde- of suecess. From the streamlets of interests ore rating here ; the contest is expected to be a sharp one, the opposing party having been in the field four or - five days previous to the Hon. Gentleman being made ac quainted with the fact by his officials ; however, the Liberal party are most sanguine, from the.deep root the Hon. Gentleman holds in the esteem of his constituents. The requisition is reported to have been numerously t signed to Mr. Gardner, and both parties are actively canvassing. BIRMINGHAM.—Ward meetings will be immediately held in all parts of the. town in support of Messrs. Scholefield and Muntz, and nothing will be left undone to exhibit the folly of an attempt to return a monopolist for Birmingham. BUCKINGHAMSHIRE.—A Captain said some time ago in a speech at Newport-Paguell, that the Tories if they pleased had it in their power " to return a jackass" for the county. Mr. Scott Murray, who has just obtained his majority, has been put forth by the Tories in their extremity. . . _ LANCASTER.—John Armstrong, Esq., a county Ma gistrate, has come forward as a friend to free trade. NonroLx (\VEsT).—Messrs. Bagge and Chute offer themselves for re-election. SALISBURY.—Mr. Brodie continues to gain strength on every day's canvass. TmasK.—Mr. Bell, a stanch Reformer, resident at Thirsk, has been requisitioned, and consents to stand. He will walk triumphantly over the field, as Major Wortley, the Tory candidate, finding no chance, has retired. WIGAN.—Mr. Kearsley having bolted, the Conserva tives have in his room selected Mr. Crosse, but Messrs. Standish and Grenfell are highly encouraged by their canvass. BEVERLEY.—Messrs. Hogg and Fox (Tories) again offer themselves. BRIDGNORTIL—Mr. Howard is sure of return ; Mr. Whitmore (Tory) cannot succeed. CAMBRIDGESHIRE. — Mr. • Townley again solicits the suffrages of the electors. CAMBRIDGE.—Two wealthy Reformers will certainly contest this borough against the Tories, Sir A. Grant and Mr. Sutton. CA RDIGAN.—A Lieutenant-Colonel Copland, of Sloane street, London, is to contest the Cardigan boroughs against Mr. Pryse Prvse (R.) .He had better stop at home. CIRENCESTER. —Mr. Cripps.retires ; the Liberal por tion will, it is hoped, replace him well. DURHAM.—Mr. Grainger's canvass has been beyond all precedent successful, and the contest will depend be tween the two Red candidates. E xrrEn.—Mr. Divett's zeal in his canvass affords the sincerest gratification to the Reformers. FALMOUTH.—Captain Vivian has addressed the elec tors, and a resolut:oa was passed to invite Captain Plum ridge to stand as his colleague. G LOUC ESTERSHIRE (EAST).—Sir John Wright Guise, Bart., has announced himself in the room of the Hon. A. Moreton, who retires. Reformers of all shad e s nee d b e proud of him. GREENWICH. —Messrs. Barnard and Dundas will, in spite of Tory leagues, be the sitting Members. • GUILFORD. --The election of Messrs. Mangles and Wall is considered safe. lIEREFORDSHIRE.—The present .Member s Sir R. Price, and K. Hoskins, Esq., staunch Liberals, and E. T. Foley, Esq. (Tory), again come fo rwar d . Attempt i s to be made to defeat one or both of the Liberals by ad vancing Mr. Bailey and Mr. Baskerville in th e Conser vative' interest.

CITY OF lEnnt.—A Mr. William Faichncv Black, on the Conservative interest, has come forward' to contest the city with the Zion. Fox Mattle. RoxnuncilsninE.—The Hon. Mr. Elliott has met with greeting from all classes of hi constituents. He laconically stated in his address, that the reduction of the corn and other duties " was not a question specifi cally belonging to either Whig, Tory, or Radical, but one that made its way to every man's stomach." TIRLINCI Bunaus,- - --Lord Dalmeny again proposes, himself ; by Mr. Aytoun, on Radical principles. • ; !•-• • • , • IYr.eK • Brno T 1 George (Tory), thinks to eatek ) ..a feiv Voters here by avowal of support to Non-intrusion principles, against Mr. James Loch. IRELAND. WICKLOW.—We have heard. that Mr. Tynte stands with Mr. Acton on the Tory interest for Wicklow. The Tories are exerting all their strength to secure the sue uss.of their candidate, and, from the accounts which have reached us, unless some active steps be at. once taken, there is soma danger of their success. The Liberals seem to be at a loss what to do, owing chiefly to the conduct of Sir Ralph Howard. If they had a candidate worth struggling for, they would be certain of sucess, as it has been ascertained, by a strict scru tiny, that they have a majority of 25 on the registry. The Conservatives are aware of this ; but they rest their hopes of victory on the apathy and disunion that provail among their opponents. The.eyes of the Libe rals seem to be directed towards one of the sons of Lord Fitzwilliam. If a - member of this family- could be in dtrel to stand with Mr. Grattan, the Tories would have no chance.—Dublin Duntax.—A requisition to the MarquiS of Kildare to start flu- this city as the colleague of Mr. O'Connell, lies for signatures in Fleet-street and Dublin. If the Mar quis responds to the call, the Liberals will have a most signal triumph. ` bOROUGdOF DUNDALK.—Lord Jocelyn, having, Leeds in view, Mr. Redington, the present Liberal 31etnber, will probably have a walk over. COUNTY .OF LouTn.—Mr. Chester, of Stonehouse, is candidate on the Liberal side. COUNTY OF CARLOW.—Colonel Bruen and Mr. Bun bury are up against Mr. Daniel O'Connell, Jun., and Mr. Ashton Yates. Here the contest will be terrible. ARMY PRIZE MONEY.

Enquirer,) Important as was the intelligence whielrwe received by the last Slimmer, thit the initi a t or y 'steps had been taken in the British Parliament for the repeal of the Corn-laws, it is not more important than the indications at the same - time given of the intention of that Govern ment, to abolish her exclusive Colonial system ; indeed . if time can sanction error, or national pride and dice plant it deep in - ch-. ..ifotpr is tv,- fir the most reins.ri:ahle change. WP tic, not speak of either of then'. ~s . mediate, but. as inevitable. The Coro-laws, hovs - ei-er, we think will be at once abolished, but then an im port duty will at the same time be imposed, though a duty not so high as to prevent importations ; for it is to this duty the Ministers look as the means of sup ' plying the deficiency in the revenue. Neither will a total change in the - Colonial system at once be intro duced ; for however palpably inconsistent that system may now appear with the welfare of the parent country and her colonies, too many interests have grown up under it, to permit them at once to be stricken down. The differential duties, or duties in favour of the Coto nies, though diminished, will not be abolished, yet will they be so much diminished, as to take from the Colonies the exclusive supply of their home market, a conclusion more than justified by the fact, that the Ministers also calculate upon the duties which will be paid on. fo'reign Colonial produce, as a source of revenue. however, in the groumg on which these modi fications of the British colonial system are brought forward, in the overwhelming argudents by which they are supported, that we seek the indubitable evi dellce of the approaching dissolution *of the system itself. The exclusive principle btwolves continual sacrifices on the part of both, on the one quite as odious as 'on ' the other, plants the seeds of disunion. and nourishes them, until -the colony seeks relief by •'separation. The evidence given to the House of Commons by the under Secretaries of the Board of t frftele, is most . conclusive. on - this point.- The sacrifices made by the 'people of England-to favour Colonial timber, are traced froth the imposing struc ture of a ship•of war, down to the mean accommoda tions of the ixmsaat's hut. The effect of the attempt to .coutin the people of •England consump tion of the produce of their owiflyeit India,Colonies, 'erishing to, under the death-blows abolition",..are shown, in the priyations. it imposes, on the poer, in its invasion on the -cloniforts of rte domestic hearth, and the encouragement% it gives to intemperance. These, are . arknments compic hended by the humblest capacity,' which carry couviction to the minds of those even who are not Yet prepared to receive the great truths Olitieal . economy now inculcates. And as to the Colonies themselves, " I have livl l 4:n all the British North American 'Colonies," saws Sir James M‘Gregor, one of the Adel- Secretaries, " and give them but the benefits of free. trade, they ask no other boon." This is the language of reason. The Colonists have sought a. new country for the natural advantages it offers to their industry. Let them freely . develope these advantages, and the whole world be open to their enterprizc, 'not narrowed down to the exigencies or :mistaken policy - of the mother country. Then the coriiicetion)s it h 'her will be hallowed' by men's natural imPtits&; iiat weakened and finally: dis Solved by the *tempt to reconcile different interests,' totally incom patible,. The apprehended effect on the- cOmmercial interests of England by an abolition of her, colonial monopoly, is happily met by one of the witnesses before the Committee of the House of Commons, who pointed to the United States and asked Whether it was pro bable, that had the restmictions of a colonial system continued to prevail here—the policy of that time when Lord Chatham declared that the manufacture of a hob nail among us would be sufficient cause for war—whether it was probable • , m:rcantile relations between the two countries would be as extensive or advantageous as they now are ? The important changes at which we have glanced, have however another material bearing. One affect ing all other nations, our own among the number and not the least. The wide field which British Coloniza tion has taken in other quarterS of the world, and to which that in this is comparatively trifling, may now be regarded by all with a favourable eye, for its benefits will not be confined to the narrow space in which it has hitherto moved, but be thrown open to all, and every new spot brought under the control of civilised man, will add to the prosperity of the great human family. £1,269,340 11 2 Cu By Cash rcfunded. to Claimants By Expense in executing Acts from the 18th of January, • 1809, to the 31st of December, 1840 57,366 15 11 By Sums paid for the loyal Hospital in diminution of the annual Vote. 553,752 6 61 By Monies invested in the Public Se curities, as under 7,253 13 4 s. d.

The roses, pel-rgoniutios, heaths, heartease, calceolarias, pinks, ranuncu spe.imen plants, cut flowers, nines, grapes, and vege tables, mere unusually fine, and excited great admiration. The whole was tastefully and legantly arranged under a spacious marquee of 100 feet in length, and the weather being very pro pitp us, ln.ndreds cf fashionables visited the Gardens during the day. An excellent band was in attendance, and enlivened the company by pt rforming several select pieces of music. Since the establishment cf this Society there has not been such spit ndid show of flowers, owing, no doubt, to the beau tiful w eather which has now prevailed for so many weeks. The prizes distributed were numerous. The following is a list cf some of them:—For the best larg.niums, the large silver medal was awarded to Air. Edmonds ; for roses, the middle silver medal to Mr. Seldon ; fur pinks, the small silver medal to Mr. C.

Among gentlemen's gardeners the fol lowing received prizes ; —Messrs. Ashe, Bourne, Welsh. Bruce, and Hancock; and Messrs.

In 1801, when lieutenant of the Bourdelois, was wounded in an action with a French squa dron, and from 1806 till 1811 commanded the Poinone in the Mediterranean, under Lord Collingwood, during which pe riod he directed several daring exploits, particularly the de struction of a convoy near Sables d'Olonne in 1807 ;• and succeeded in capturing five transports with provisions, and captured a vesicl in which was Prince Lucien Bonaparte with his family and all his valuables, all claim to which the officers and crew of the Pmuone surrendered as belong ing in an individual.

H. Carter, Esq., in the chair, to consider what course of action ought to be pursued at the present crisis. The large hall was croWded with electors, and the utmost enthusiasm prevailed. John Phillpotts, Esq., M.P., for the city, was also present ; having arrived that morning from London, with a view to take part in the discussion. W. RUPER, Esq., moved the first retatition in a speech of great length, in which he combated successfully, and with great eloquence, the various . objections urged by the monopolists against the Ministerial projects. lie called upon the electors to return to Parliament as their representatives such gentlemen only who would assist her Majesty's Government in enacting their proposed Inca ' sures.

He called upon the electors to combine together in one common band for the purpose of.preventing the des perate faction of Tories from again assuming the reins of Government. He exhorted them to come to the rescue of their young and beloved Queen, who was now looking on with fear and trembling lest she s h ou ld be compelled to submit to the dictatorial insolence of the Tories.—(Enthusiastic cheering.) The question was simply, whether the working classes shall have plenty, or be starved ; whether trade shall be paralysed or quickened ; whether we should have internal peace, or commotion and ultimate ruin. The speaker then moved a resolution to the effect that the meeting, indivi dually and collectively, pledged themselves to support no candidates for the city, at the forthcoming election, but those who were the known advocates of an alteration ig the Corn-laws. This resolution was seconded by Mr. FRINCILLON, and passed unanimously, amidst the most enthusiastic cheers. Jolts PIIILLPOTTS, Esq., 31. P., then rose, and was received with loud cheering. He proclaimed himself as favourable to a total repeal of the Corn-laws, and ex posed, in a strain of sharp invective, the fraudulent means by which the corn averages are taken in the country. lie declared himself willing . af;ain to be put in nomination at the next general electton, and sat down amidst great applause. Thanks we re then voted to the chairman, when the meeting dissolved.— Correspondent of an Evening Paper. HIGHGATE CEMETERY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,--Knowing that The Sun is a " people's paper," and that you are anxious to eo everything in your power to make i t so, you will, perhaps, allow me a line or two, with the view of correcting an evil, which I am sure must be extensively felt. From a recent arrangenient, it appears that the parties in whose hands rest./ the management of the affairs of the High gate Cemetery, have ordered that, on Sundays, no persons shall be admitted without a special order. This, Sir, is an arrangement exceedingly inconvenient to the public , _ inasmuch as great numb ers w h o are not aware o f i t go f rom London and elsewhere, fully expecting to be admitted. It was truly pain ful yesterday, in pas:ine, to observe the gre,,t number of re. spectable pe o pl e , w h o 'had evidently come from a great dis tance, crowd e d roun d th e ga t e , exper i enc i ng a ll the vexation which disapp o i n t men t i n suc h a case wou ld create: If people rre t o en j o y th e fresh air on a Sunday, what p lace so fit to ex c it e i n t h e m i n d t h e most va l ua bl e moral and re ligious sentiments as a place like Highgate Cemetery, where, while the beauty o f th e scener y rem i n d s one of the great go l oa. ness and bounty of the Creator, the memorials of i mortait en yi i rising everywhere around us equally impress upon usth e of all men, and the neces,ity of being suitably prepared it? It is, indeed, unfair t, those who are etN>i tions, to be ex cluded from this pleasure on a Sunday.

With the exceptions of a few gardens whiCh are here and there cultivated by the negroes—gardens far ~ inferior to those of our worst slaves—there is no culti- : vation whatever. The only product of the island is coffee, and that every year diminishes so materially, that the time is not far distant when it will produce none at all. No more is planted, and the old coffee plantations are not even taken care of.
