Such we confidently believe is the fact, and we trust that the counsels and opi nions of so enlightened a character will be re: caved with due attention and respect. We have been favoured with the following translation of the last PuocLAmATto:l issued by this GeNtle man on resigning his important office, and it breathes an air of dignified spirit worthy of a People claiming the blessings of freedom and Independence : " BUENOS AYRES, May 9, 11124. "FELLOW.CITIZENS—The Government you elected in the Year 1821 ceases this day, according to law. This event is the height of its wishes, and the glorious termination of its labours. One only duty remains for it to fulfil, and it does so in express ing to you its gratitude and acknowledgments for the virtuous 00 -operation you have afforded it in its arduous career. Fel . low.citizens, it was your wish, and instantly from chaos started our country, in the free and prosperous state in which you be hold it. For such a creation, what could avail the zeal, the knowledge, and the strength of a few individuals, if unassisted by.the unanimous opinion of the good? Without that assist ance, the institutions which now constitute you one of the freest nations on the globe could never have been formed. May the succeeding Government ever find the constant aid of your opi. Motrin order to preserve them, You need not then fear either the violence or the weakness of a power, which without the law will be imbecile, and with it irresistible. If any spectres of **chi appear in moments of obscure gloom, shrink not : examine then: close, hold up to them the light, and they will ' ap ish like the phantoms of .night. May they never again dis -..hOnotir Our country, nor turn it aside from the road of liberty and fortune y le3 This, Citi zens , was t h e most ardent wish ofour Government on commencing its career, and with this wish at i ts CondSll.oll it takes its leave of you.

GERMAINS, which was thronged at an early hour, for the purpose of witnessing the august ceremony of removing the royal remains of James 11., King of England, which were unexpectedly . discovered, a short time since, by the workmen employed in digging the foundation of the new church, which is building upon the site of the old edifice, which was found to be in so ruinous a state as to be utterly incapable of repair. The road was thronged with carriages of all descriptions and pedestrians of all classes. The ceremony, which was conducted with great solemnity, be gun with a procession of priests, in their sacerdotal vestments. who, entering the chap e l b u il t for the temporary purposes of religious worship, on a spot closely adjoining . the church, per. formed the service of Mass in a most impressive manner. he spectators, who were very numerous seemed greatly affected by the whole scene, whi c h was str ikingly grand, and replete with moral associations. The entrance to the chapel was hung with a canopy of black cloth, as was the interior. The coffin, containing the royal remains, was placed upon a stage in the shape of a magnificent mausoleum, hung round with tesselated drapery of the deepest mourning. The whole was surmounted with the royal diadem of gold, placed on a r i c h cushion of crimson velvet; over the whole of which was thrown a veil of black crape, which softened, without concealing, their splendor. Towards the close of the service the remains of the Royal Sove reign were removed, in great state to the altar,. beneath which the attendants proceeded to deposit it, with all those solemni ties, so powerful in their effect, which distinguish the Catholic Church service. The whole ceremony closed about two o'clock. On a plain black tablet, in the front of the altar, is the follow ing inscription D. O. M. Jussu GEOIIGII IV. Megrim llritannhe, et Regis Et Curante Equite Exc. CAROL() STUART Regis Britannia! Legato. Cueteris antea rite peractis Et quo decet honore In stirpein regium Die nuper effussa!

Rowing matches a A U re now so frequent ß , TS that they have almost ceased to possess any interest: one however occurred yesterday of a novel description. The Proprietor of the Nino Elms Tavern, Battersea, gave a purse of sovereigns, to be rowed for by seven pair of oars, viz. 7 landsmen and 7 watermen, all ofNine Elms. After an excellent contest., which continued from three o'clock till seven in the evening, the prize was gained by Turton and Adams, who w ere di stingu i shed by a black flag. The scene of contention was between the Red House and Vauxhall Bridge. —There were two interesting matches on the River yesterday, which created much sport. The first, in the morning, was be tween Messrs. Ambury and Williams, in a skiff, against Cod ling, a Blackwell man, in a wherry, from the Southwark Bridge to a boat or a buoy off Chiswick. The amateurs were much accustomed to rowing on the River, and Jonathan Codling was bred a waterman, anti he was backed for ten sovereigns. The skiff took the lead, anti kept it to Vauxhall Bridge, and the boats were under the bridge together, but the wherry was rather a-head oft' the Red House, and kept the lead up to Wandsworth. At Putney Bridge the skiff was behind about six boat's length, and it was evident she could not overtake her antagonist, and the waterman won it by one minute and a half. The match was rowed against tide, and was done within two hours.—The second was a sailing match, between the Diana, Mr. Thompson (red), a Chelsea boat (blue), and a boat called the Glory, from Shadwell (green). The match was for five sovereigns each, or fifteen for the winner, from Lambeth to Isleworth Church. The boats were upon a very small scale, but there was a good wind, and red took the lead, breeze z l e io ti she i a thegaigain otherspassed weut aea h d e , r atan and w Battersea . on c 1 e v N e t r ' l i y d . i a Greenbri k second, and blue third. PEDSTRIANISM. Mn. G. WEST'S MATCH FOR 200 Soy.—This first-rate pedestrian started yesterday morning at 2 o'clock to go on foot to Maidstone, Kent, and return to a given spot, completing 66 miles in 13 hours. The road, from the number of hills after a few miles travelling, is decidedly the most difficult out of Lon don, and many bets at 0 to 4 were made at the sporting houses the preceding night on time. Mr. Barclay was the chosen umpire for each side. The pedestrian performed the first H miles within an hour, and he proceeded on to a friend's house between Farningham and ICingdown, 111 miles, to breakfast._ The pedestrian staid there half an hour, and he reached half the distance in 2 minutes over 6 hours, and returned through Lark field-gate, leaving himself 29 miles to accomplish in 6 hours and 5 minutes.

The occasional showers lately have not done the least mischief, for things that were wet were very soon dry. The quan tity and quality of the harvest were never better. So far as regards the neighbourhood of Ilfra combe, immediately after the reducti on o f t h e Salt Duty, Pig meat rose considerably, an d h as been ever since increasing in price, so that it is now 50 per cent. dearer than it was before the Salt Duty was reduced. Butchers' meat is also extremely dear. There IS scarcely any goo d mutton in the country, which is attributed to the many recent enclosures which have destroyed the sheep walks. The Farmers begin to adopt a large kind of sheep, the meat of which is very coarse. EARLY NLWS.--ct Mn.

That you know; but you do not know, that to breathe fresh and changed air constantly is not less necessary to preserve health than sobriety itself. Air becomes unwhole some in a few hours if the windows are shut. Open those of your sleeping-rooms whenever you quit them to go to your workshops. Keep the windows of your workshops open, when ever the weather is not insupportably cold. I have no interest in giving you this advice. Remember what I, your country man, and a physician, tell you.

About eight weeks ago, while he was at work in his shop, a neighbour's cat, which was suspected to be in a rabid state, ran into his house, followed by two or three persons, and although he was warned that she was mad, he left his work and walked over to the corner into which the animal had crouched herself', and proceeded to rub down her back and fondled with her, in order to convince those present that they were mistaken, and that poor puss was only a little out of temper. lie, however, had not caressed her many seconds, before she seized the fleshy part of his right hand with her teeth. The poor fellow has left a wife anti three children totally unprovided for.

On Thursday last, in the wide part of the Grand Junction Canal,- on Halton Moor, within a mile of Wendover, near Aylesbury, a party of six persons, chiefly inhabitants of Tring (five females and a young man) had en gaged a boat to convey them to Wendover, from whence they proceeded to Velvet Lawn, to spend the day. On their return, and when they had proceeded about a mile from Wendover, the boat upset, and two ofthe females (Miss L. Butcher, of Tring, and Miss M. Allen, of Leighton Buzzard, were unfortunate! drowned. The ladies were totmd, one about an hourand the other about two hours afterwards. They were conveyed to the house of Mr. Win. Reed, near the Reservoir, in the parish of Wendover, where every means was resorted to withcut effect. Sever a l religious books were picked up near the spot yesterday morning, and also a reticule and a book on matrimony, and into which state we are informed one of the unfortunate females had been about to enter. CORONER'S INQUEST. Mr. William Lake, of Marswordt, Surveyor, a young man about 20 years of age, said he was in the boat with the two deceased and three other females, on Thursday night, about half-past eight o' c l oc k - near Halton Moor; the boat was towed by a horse, and which was driven by a man and a boy.— The boy was forward on a gate on the towing path, at the time the accident took place. The party was perfectly steady, and the boat was going at the rate of four miles per hour. The party reached about a mile from iVendover—believed the boat was going a little faster than before: it became agitated, as if the horse had given a sudden snatch, when.the fore end pitched into the water, the boat filled with water, it upset, and the whole party were immersed. The canal, was deeper than the height of the witness. Witness could steim'a little, and suc ceeded in rescuing three of the females ; by this time the two deceased females had sunk. He made some efforta to find them ; but he was quite exhausted, and could not have don e more without end anger i ng hi s own life. The party was seated quite steady when the boat was upset; the drivers were quite steady, and stopped the horse when they were called to, and Witness could not attach the, least blame to any one. Robert Falkner (the boy), said hit was opening the gate at the time the accident took place; he heard a voice cry "stop I" it appeared a cry of alarm ; the man who drove the boat stopped immediately, and went back to the boat, and assisted to get some of the females out of the water. Witness Saw the deceased females sink; they did not rise again; did not know the cause of die boat sinking. Thomas Barwick, labourer, was present when the first ceased body was taken out of the water, abotit.9 o'clock ; the ether was o‘ken out about an hour afterw ,r is ; the surgeon and Sir J. D. King were attending the first body, while search wss making Mr tne discovery of the other; the person who drove the bolt was searching, and appeared quite steady. Mr. T. IV. Turner, surgeon, of IVendover, was called to the first deceased body that was found about a quarter past ten O'clock, and used every means to restore animation for nearly three hours, but his eftbrtaproved inefti catal. He saw the oth er boil y about on e o ' c l oc k ; it was quite in an irrecoverable state. The Jury returned a verdict-...“ Accidentally Drowned." An undertaker attended early yesterday to measure the un. fortunate/ for coffins, and it Was expected they would be re. moved in the course of the evening to the distressed habitations of their parents and friends, which they had so lately quitt in health and spirits. They were both possessed of great beauty. The surviving females were, to a late hour yesterday, at the Engine-house. about 200 y ar d s f rom t h e melancholy abode of their deceased friends and companions. Miss Butcher was the daughter of Mr. Butcher, grocer, at Tring, and Miss Allen, daughter of Mr.. Allen, parchment manufacturer, at Leighton Buzzard.—( Buck: Chronicle.) SUICIDES. Yesterday a Coroner's Inquest was held before C. JIM NETT, Esq., at the Spread Eagle, Kennington-lane, on view of the body of Mrs. Elizabeth Leggatt, aged 30, a most respectable lady, who cut her throat on the 3d instant, and of winch wound she died on Friday last, at her house, Guildford. terrace Kennington-c ross . M rs . M ary L eggatt state d , t h at she had attended her daughter-in-law for the last seven week., who was in a very low desponding way, occasioned from a ner. vows complaint; witness about noon on Friday se'nnight went down stairs to get deceased some broth, and on her re. turn she was sitting up in the bed, holding something to her throat, and a quantity of blood was upon the clothes. Witt cat being dreadfully frightened, left the room, called for :1 tistanec., and soon returned again with Mrs. Clayt on , w h en i t was di s . covured that the deceased had cut her throat with a razor, which was bloody on the mantle shelf. Medical aid was niediately sent for, when Dr. Young promptly arrived and sewed up the wound. The deceased lingered, after committ ng the rash act for a week. She had been for two years past its a very low desponding way, and during the greater.part of that time was incapable of attending to her family. James Forbes Young, M.D., of Paradise-street, Lambeth, was sent for on Friday, the 3d instant to Mond the deceased, and found her sitting up in the bed. A considerable quantity of blood was on the floor, bed, and bed-clothes. The deceased was holding a cloth to her throat, on removing which he discovered an incision in the throat extending backwards, with the windpipe completely divided ; the extent was two inches in length, amt one in depth ; he instantly collected the parts together, sewed it up, and dressed the wound. Witness had known the de ceased lady about ten years; had attended her from February last; she was then very low-splrited, and in April, after lite confinement, there was every symptom of insanity daily in creasing on her. Witness has no doubt her death was occasioned by inflammation on the windpipe, caused by the incision. No further evidence being adduced, the Jury unanimously return ed the following verdict:.-_." That the unfortunate deceased lady came to her death by cutting her throat while labouring under a state of insanity." The deceased has left a husband and five children to lament her loss, the youngest of which is only five months old. A respectably dressed middle aged man was yesterday morning found with his throat cut in the area of one of the houses in the Temple, near to the water side. In his pockets were found 15s. and some halfpence, together with some papers which lead to a discovery of his name and residence. It appears his name is Henry Itutcnbury, that he was a master. builder and capenter in Clerkenwell, and ,is report e d to h a; e sustained a large pecuniary loss f r o m some extensive huildii g speculations in the neighbourhood of Spa-fie:ds.; to m d other causes he became embarrassed, was arrested, and thr weeks ago was disehartred from Initecross-vtreet under the Insolvent act. Theiv! vic tut s are suppt sed to ha , e preyed upon his mind, and led to the rash act by which he has sacri. ficed his own life, and left a widow and numerous family wholly unprovided for.
