( From the New York Evening Post.) ' CoLomaia.—The Colombian brig of war Pinchinco, has arrived at Philadelphia from Pqrto Cavell°, accompanied by the barque Urica, and 13 transports, under the command of Coin modore Daniels. Colonel Luna, first Aid to General Paez, is also on board, and is said to be charged with despatches to our Government. This fleet, it will be recollected, lately sailed from Laguira, with 3500 troops, to reinforce the Colombian army in Peru, a service which it has performed. (From the National Gazette.) PHILADELPHIA, OCT. 12.—C01. Luna, first •aid-de-camp to Gen. Paez, who came passenger in the Colombian brig of war Pinchinco, Captain J. S. Maitland, has politely favoured us with the following intelligence from Peru:— • _ On his arrival at Porto Bello on the 30th of August last, he found that official - accounts had been received at Panama from• Upper Peru, stating that General Bolivar, in conse quence of the misunderstanding that existed between the Royalist Generals Carratela and Olaneta, had put himself in march from Trujillo to attack Canterac, who was then at Pasco. Cunterac retreated to the strong. entrenchments of Jauja in U_pper Peru; and ,foitifled* himself there;_ but General - Bolivar, after having bloCkaded Calico, and left in Lima the Battalion of Zulia, two squadrons of viary, and the guerillas of the country, pursued Canterac; and forced him from his entrenchment. Camerae again retreated precipitately into' the interior, leaving some priionefs, who declare that he has no more than men, while' lloliviu's army consists of 14,000, of which 10,000 arc Colombians," with which force Bolivar. was pursuing him. The prisoners Were sent to Guay aquil, and from thence to Panama, in the corvette S.fntander, which arrived at Panama on the Dtli August ; and they were at the time of Colonel Lima's departure, confined in the castle of Chagres. Among them were four Spanish Colonels, and a number of subaltern officers of various ranks. ( From the American and Commercial Advertiser, Dot. 13.) A letter from Panama, dated the 11th of August, states that the Columbian brig of war Santander, of 22 guns and 150 men, arrived there ,on.: the sth, in 16 days, from .Guyaeuil. The Captain and passengers landed in the evening, when the crew mutinied and ran away with vessel, on board of, which, it is said, there Were dispatches for the Governinent of Columbia.—Authentic intelligence from Lima of the sth July had reached Panama. At that date the Royalists were still in possession of Lima. The subject .that ut present chiefly engrosses the attention, not only of the Politicians of Eu rope but of. the People in geueral,:is ithe'deplora- We condition of Spain. Every post almost brings fresh accounts of the Increasing iytanny of the wretched FERDINAND.. There can hardly be a doubt, that the Potentates of Europe 140 adopted some delicate 'means to correct his follies, and to suggest a better mode of Government. They can not properly do more without violating the inde pendence of another State. France, no.doubt, has taken the leadiiturepresenting to him the evil and the .dauger otitis present system of Government, though to apply the term G ovenuneut to.such horrible tyranny , is to prostituta . the tern)": — As the infatuated Monarch,. however, has resisted all attempts to she* Win the folly, injustice; op pression, and danger of his conduct, it would be wise in France'wholly to withdraw its.troop . •that there would be the hazard of conveyting an ill4reated people into a national bunriittl f as few, after the i sikfferings of those w.io attempted to establish -a .Government in which the mights of the people should, be held equally sacreJ with the privileges of the throne, would perhaps again come forward. Really it is diffi cult to say how, other Governments should act in the present wretched condition of Spain; but if the silly and ferocious Monarch should proceed to more lamentable excesses, mere nega tive measures .of. precaution will kardly be suf. ficient to prevent a revolutionary - contagion from extending its disorganizing influence overall sur rounding States. • .

The object of their visit was to ascertain the practicability and importance of having a chain pier erected similar to the one built at Brighton. We understand that the desired object is determined on; it is expected to be the most useful and ornamental work that was ever contemplated for the prosperity of this part of the coast; in addition to whieh,water for the supply of the ships riding in the Downs will he,Oh.' tamed, through pipes from good steams in the neighbourhood. and be conducted to a reservoir in the Naval Yard, which will be the means of employing a number of men who would. other wise be destitute. CORONATION. OF TIM LINO OF FIIANCE.—A Com Mission has been appointed, consisting of the Archbishop of Rheims, the Minister of the King's Household, and the Ba. ron de la Ferte, the Intendent of the Menus Plairirs, to make the necessary preparations for his Majesty's Coronation. The latter has set out for Rheims.—( Constituanniel.) Louts XV. had a knack of striking off the top of an egg-shell very cleverly, at a single ittrolce of his fork he therefore always ate eggs when he dined. iu public ; and the Parisian cockneys, who came on Sundays to oec the King dine, returned home less struck with his fine figure, than with the deterlty with which he broke his eggs. It appears by the country . Papers that iron has of late risen fifty per cent.; and that cattle, but ter, cheese, and provisions of all kinds, are con siderably higher in price dial at this period of the year. • THE KING, &c.

Er son—The paragraph respecting Mrs. 3lardyn, which appears in your Paper of last evening. taken, as It is said, (ruin the Morning Post, has excited much attention in this city. At the same time your Readers here are much surprised that you should have known so little of this female's character and conduct, as to have lent your aid in the attempt to palm her off again upon the Public, by giving an extended eircula tion to this paragraph, which is evidently manufactured in a certain quarter, to bolster -up Lord Byron's character, and to palliate his unfeeling conduct to his mtichinjured and amiable Lady, and at the same time to screen Mrs. Mardyn from the renewed expression . of the public displeasure, Should she again venture to present herself upon the Stage ! The assertion that Lord Byron Nit, sat met Mrs. Marilyn OUT of the Green room of Drury.lane is notoriously untrue, as can be proved by several individuals connected with that Theatre, and by his Lordship's own doniestics. can, if it is necessary, bring to Mrs. Marilyn's recollection when and where she met his Lord. ship, and then under circumstances of peculiar indelicacy and want of generous feeling. koccasion should require it, I shall not hesitate to enter upon this task, but.for the present I refer yon, Mr. Editor, to every individual in this city fur the,early character and conduct of this much-injured Lady," who was a native of it, and for some time a menial patvaot In the family of a respectable individual living in this ;trees. her'appduct, after she quitted that situation, is;well lutown, h r after rhe married and became a plaik.r,and heraepar ..aet.. ton e and n or an her husband ; but on. which, at this moment; I shall forbear to make any comment. with respect to Lord Byron's conduct, whatever may be said to the contrary by his Companions and Biographers; there are too many..persons privy to it to admit of any doubt of the truth of it,.both before his marriage at Sealiam and immediately after It, and during his visit at Ilalnaby ; erailtich was greatly ag gravated by his behaviour whilst be resided in Piccadilly. His abuse to Lady Byron, of her family, auttespecially of,that most amiable and excellent individual her father, was disgraceful to his character as a Nobleman , and.a Gentleman ; and his re cently acqpiced friends will only lately their good sense and dia. cretion, before they attempt • any furtbeT illustrations of his life' nd character, by forbearing, to pres's much further their jus tifiCation of itli conduct these respects. There are many lionourable individuals, who took a lively interest in his Lord haPpiness and welfare, among them Mr. H- and Mr. but all their efforts to controul hi., temper and beha vious were unavailing ; and although the public may long con tinue to admire some of his publications, yet his private life and character Can'never be esteemed or-valued by them. • 0 l cEsT it Le CIVIS.

CoveNT-GAnnEN.---The Tragedy of Venice Preserved again introduced Mrs. SLOIKAN, in the character of Belvidere, on Saturday, in which she fully confirmed the, favourable impression which she made on the audience by her previous performance. Indeed her previous success gave her more self-possession, and she appeared to greater advantage. We observe that some of our contemporary critics refer to Miss O'Neil, as the best Belvidera within their recollection ; and one of them says, 'c it is only once iu about a century that such an Actress as Miss O'NEIL appears, or is perhaps born." lies the Critic totally forgotten Mrs. SIDDONS? We know that Belvidera was the favourite character of that great Actress, and in our opinion her performance of it was the very perfection of acting. But perhaps the Critic thinks Mrs. SIDDONS and GARRICK stood at such a height as to forbid all competition, and if so, he thinks rightly; but still it is not just to pass over in silence a Belvidera which OTWAY would doubtless have viewed with wonder as well as ad miration. Mr. C. KEMBLE and Mr. You No, in Allier and Pierre, again exerted all their powers in those characters, and again divided the general applause. The Afterpiece was a revived Farce, called The Escapes, w hich is so amusing as to have merited an earlier re-production. FAWCETT is the chief prop of tbis Piece, but It was also in debted to the exertions of PEARIKAN, KEELY, and Miss HAMMERSLET. DIRURY.L AN E.—The Maid of the Mill, one of our good old English Operas, was revived here on Saturday,after a retirement of the fair heroine, as the bills announce, of ten years. This notice implies an imputation on the taste of the Mana gers, for having sufDred the piece to remain on the shelf so long. The story is interesting, and the variety of characters which it comprizes ren der it very entertaining. The characters were in general well assigned. Hoax was Lord Aim. worth, BEDF O RD Giles, KNIuSIT Ralph, Mrs. BEDFORD Patty, Miss POVEY Theodosia, Mrs. W A YLETT Fanny, and GATTIE and Mrs. HAM.. LOVIE, the heads of the Sycamore family. Hosts sang well, but he introduced songs not in the original piece. We. protest against this practice. Our old native Overas ought to be presented as they originally appeared. The music of this Opera was composed and compiled by Dr. ARNOLD, a Composer of whom this country uught to be proud, as he possessed genius, taste, and science in no ordinary degree, and was in the earlier part of his life a pupil of HANDEL. 'Vito works of such an admirable musician ought not to be subject to capricious interpolation.— Mrs. BEDFORD is a pretty woman, and Patty is a gentle character, but Mrs. Benvogn is really too tame in her acting. BEDFORD'S Giles was manly and easy, but he does not content himself w ith giving the airs in a plain unaffected style, suitable to the character. It is observed in a Morning Paper, that the music " is somewhat gone by, but Mr. Bistwe is at this house now, and a few additions from his genius might render the Opera interesting and attractive." We admire the ta lents of Mr. BISHOP, but the genius of ARNOLD needs no additions. Too many liberties are taken with the legitimate Dramas of this country, and they ought to be secured from obtrusive innova• tiou. SPORTING IN'kELLIGENCE.

Thirty-two gallons of spirits bought in winter will, without being in the least diluted, make thirty-three in summer. The reason is, that all bodies, fluids especially, expand with beat and contract with cold. WINTER Conan.—November's fogs now pay their unwelcome visits to the asthmatic and phthisical.

ALLIANCE COMPANY'. An Extraordinary General Meeting of the No. prietors of the Company took place this day in New Court, pursuant to advertisement, to consider a prorSed alteration is the Regulations of the Company, when the Chairman, Mr. !R -emo, addressed the Meeting in a short speech, informing them that proceedings had lately been adopted by a single shareholder in the Court of Chancery (to prevent the Company from effecting Marine Insurances, and that the:Chancellor had been pleased to grant in Injunction for; that purpose, as a new Company might be formed for Marine Assurance, andi some of the Directors of the Alliance Company might become Mem., bens of the Direction of such new Company ; it was deemed ex pedient to make such an alteration in the existing laws as might enable them so to do. The clause in the Deed proposed to be altered was then read by the Solicitor ; by which the Directors and Auditors of the Alliance Company were precluded from becoming Directors or Auditors of any other Company established, or to be established for effecting Assurances. The alteration proposed was, that they should be precluded from becoming Directors or .Auditcro of any other Life oi Fire Assurance Company. The Motion h been put from the Chair, was carried unanimously. A Proprietor (Mr. }booms) requested to put three ques-' eons to the Chairman, viz.—What was the number o f Sh ares held by the individu a l who had applied to the Chancellor.__ whether he had held those Shares originally—and whether any other Shareholders had joined him in protesting against the 314 foe Insurance? The eIIAIRZIAIf replied, that Mr. Natusch had 15 shares, and was an original subscriber for them ; that he was the only plaintiff, but that on the Chancellor requiring to know whether any, anti what other Shareholders were united with him in opi, mon, Mr. Shaw, the:Chainnan of the Committee at Lloyd's., and Mr. Corbett, a holder of five Shares in the Coropuny, hud made an affidavit of their dissent. The Meeting, which was fully attended, then broke up. MERCANTILE SHIPPING. Ds►L, Nov, 7.—Wind IV.S.W.—Arrivecl the Express, Wells, from Gibraltar.

Stu-47uskillad, as a boy at my age must cer.. tainly be, in any art or method of writing—and still more dis. qualified by the heart-rending anguish of my situation:,l throw myself on your compassion, to aid my appeal to the British Public in behalf of my poor, lost, sacrifised, murdered fatil.:l ! and Oh ! if they cannot save his life, let the agonies of my dis. .tracted mother, and myyouth, my inaocence, my tears prevail on them to be just to his reputation, and not to believe those false and cruel insinuations, which unfeeling men would asucu. mulate on our affliction. My dear mother never, never reproaches him—loves him most tenderly—and dies with grief and horror at his fate ; to me he has ever been a fond, dusting father, and to society, in all actions of his life, but those for which his lift is forfeited, an amiable and virtuous man. This, anti this only, is the truth ! While I have life, I cannot cease to cherish his Memory with affection and with anguish ; nor shall my prayer to Heaven ever cease to implore that my country may not dis. cover too late, that to take the life of u fellow -creature. for any o ffence but murder, is a much greater crime than any that can be charged on my dear father—that it is not equity, but cruelty —not justice, but revenge.

Thera was a very large supply of Wheat and Barley last week, but moderate quantities of other Grain. Th e arr i vt .l o f Flour was extremely large. This morning the fresh supplica of Wheat, Barley, and Beans, from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, are tolerably good. Our millers purchased Wheat very spar. . Ingly this morning, and the trade has therefo re b ecom e d u ll , at a decline of 2s. to 33. per quarter from the terms of this day sennight, and a quantity left on hand unsold. The top price of Flour has receded to 851. per sack. Barley has met a heavy sale at a decline of Is. per quarter. Old !leans support thrlr prices,' but new samples are Is. per qr. lower. Bolling Peas.. fully support last quotations; Grey Pease are rather dearer. Oats are not plentiful, and good Horse Corn is rather higher in price, there being a free demand for such parcels.
