[From the Commercial Advertiser of tia. 12th of Feb.] The latest intelligence from Jamaica, brought by the Eliza at Baltimore, which left Kin.gston 17th January, Captain Rockwell, who arrived f rom Port Antonio, states that place to be very s ickly, and in consequence of the continued ap prehension of an insurrection of the Blacks, an order was hourly expected at Port Antonio for Placing that district under martial law. The Government of Buenos Ayres has entered into a contract for the conveyance to that State of I ° o Irish labourers of the description called navi gators, for the purpose of cutting a canal fromEnse nada to the city of Buenos Ayres. They bind t hemselves to serve the Government for 7 years for which they receive a certain consideration: and at the expiration of that time a certain quan tity o f land ailoted to each. NEW-YORK, FEE. 11.—FRoM MAnTrwratTE.—Th e Sa .z,a,tnali Georgian, of the 4th inst. contains late intelligence from Martinique. Martial law had been proclaimed on that island, in consequence of the contemplated insurrection of the free People of colour. From thirty to forty of the ringleaders had been arrested, and tried at Fort Royal, and nine of them ba nished from the island, some of whom were people of property. It was th e i r i ntent i on to murder all the white population, on the night of the 17th of December, but their design was frustrated "Y the arrival on that day of a detachment of troops from Vra tio i n l of 2.4thn,cper.evTiouhesytotwichhhenp,ut off the execution of the plot to the ' all their plans. the Government had obtained informs'. he Governor o hourl expected to receive from France an making ' Martinique a free port, under certain qua `l9o.

NEWYORK, F EL 9.—We have received by the brig Fa nn y , the Curagoa Courant of the 10th of January. The pirates are again at their work of blood. Captain Wagner and crew, ,of the s c h ooner Julia, who sailed from this port some t ime since f or Curaeoe, was fallen in with by the pirates , and the whole of them murdered', with the exception of a boy, who made his "cape, and has communicated the following to the Editors of tlto Courant:_,4 The pirate was under the tai - coloured flag , and after boarding the sc h oo ner, took all her crew on hoard his l i ssel, and lo c k e d them in the hold, except Captain Wag ner. neY made then a hole in the side of the vessel, to cause her to sink ; when the crew perceived the water corning in the hold t hey broke into the cabin, and made their escape on deck, hop ing to mare their lives by some way or other, and get on shore ; but how , great was their astonishment on seeing the boat return ''' Ittiotit Captain Wagner ; and before he was taken away, he hearts for his life, but could not excite compassion in the " e atts of those barbarians. They came on board the vessel and murdered every soul on board excepting two boys, who sprung into the sea, whom they pursued, and murdered one, and left the other swimming, because they thought he would not reach t he shore. The boy who escaped is a native of Curagoa." Letters have been received this morning from llavannah, of the Bth February, stating that recent accounts had been received there from Mexico, and that all was tranquil in the capital of that country. New England Coffee-house. —Charleston Pa pers are just received to the 13th February, but they do not contain any news of consequence. The delivery of Letters from the General Post -office this morning was considerably re tarded in consequence of the arrival of an im 'nense number of ship letters from all parts of the World, and of Mails from America. The advices of the dispersion of the Independ mts under General SANTA CRuz, near the river Desaguadero, a n d,their sub sequent evacuation of U pper P eru, first received 7 broughtue wbayy of Gibraltar, have been confirmed by accounts the last Brazil packet, and we understand Govern ment is also in possession of them. The particulars reached Buenos Ayres from the interior, and were published in the Ar gos of that place, accompanied by remarks on the conduct of Gen. Santa p l ace ' 'ru, evidently of the most unwarrantable kind. It will be remember ivhen the Royalists, in the month of last July, came down from the Highlands anti occupied Lima, a Patriotic expedition was fitted ut and sent to the Interme dios, or the ports between Li and Chile. The command of this force was confided to rapidly advanced to La Paz, Cirn Ol u . and with it he and, in the absence of the Royalists, made himself masterraSanatca. Cruz, of all Upper Peru. The Royalist Chief Valdez advaneetial ng the coast, when Santa Cruz took up a strong position on along river Desaguadero, in which it seems he was attacked last September and dislodged. The particulars of this action are contained in the subjoined Report, from which, although great allowances are to be made for the interested feelings of the writer, w ho is one of the ,aißeonyearlist Comm an d ers, i t is very clear that the retreat of Santa Cruz to illoquegua on the coast, where he now 's2 Must have been extremely disastrous, and the moral effect b of thi s l oss must have been great in the minds of the inha .itarlts• Lett ers , wr i tten by extremely impartial persons, in l'aet anticipated this result when they saw Santa Cruz ad dvFce into the interior without any point d'appui, and at a Z'stance from his resources, with a force chiefly composed of c j u itN and all Peruvians, a s sooner or l ater h e cou ld not ''' ,-,'.

These same letters add, that the Paniards occupy their old positions, that is to say, Canterac ';'Maine in Janja, and the Viceroy La Serna, in Upper Peru. 15olivar's great strength was between Lima and Pisco, c,om l?osed of the Colombians, Buenos-A 'reans, and Chilians, un a. er General Pintos, and this three WiLS to be increased by an <__liriliary one of 2,00 0 men, who left Valparaiso in the middle of i) f cto a ber.

TRANSLATED FROX THE ARGOS OF BUENOS AYRES OF Dec. 3, 1823. iciAmong civilized nations and within the compass of civil so. _eties, with difficulty will the dissolution of an army be believ d which, without havin b ... .exis!. It was not within human calculation that the man , , who g een .caten, has ceased for ever to V.„l:°,antly,styled himself the powerful Liberator of the South, c,-;;lathe conqueror at Tichinca, should thus fly away like ve a tho e r d , carrying; before him alarm and death. This has ner -4 ',3 happened. The Provinces have seen that Santa Cruz f /- "8 how to swear in vain. His promises to the Congress of on ) , ~.. beh e l d were passing words. In the name of tbe God w of Ilia h r ini, he offered to seal with his blood the fatal decree rd in acc_ • pith ,i) . present misfortune. His words have not been big actions. Dastard, as he his own crime accuse; . . has, him—his only care having been to save his own person. The people he has compromised—the many unhappy persons he has dragged to misfortune, and the innumerable evils he has caused to humanity, in his mind, must have been of little import. Criminal man ! how wilt thou answer for all this before the Almighty ? The following is a full report of the catastrophe alluded to. _ . " Riva Aguero, suspecting that, after the triumph of Mo quegua, the Legitimate government of Peru had projected the occupation of Lima on a wrong calculation, undertook his mad expedition to the Intermedios. The result has shewn him that our combinations were well made. All the necessary measures had been previously taken. The advance of the enemy into the interior was the signal of his ruin. With the surprise of the squadron of the Arequipa cavalry they allowed themselves to be deceived—from that moment Santa Cruz imagined he was invincible. He conceived a plan, the magnitude alone of which excites astonishment. He sought to carry it into effect ; but the Viceroy, anticipating all, placed obstacles in his way, he having occupied the Desaguadero, La Paz, Oruro, and Cocha bamba' and the first-named position being also strongly gar risoned, the passage over of the troops situated on the other side of the river became nearly impossible. Being master of Potosi and Chuquisaca, and in communication with the lower provinces, he thought his command in Peru would be eternal. Foelish man ! he knew not that our soldiers knew how to over come the obstacles opposed by nature. Whilst I was collect ing all the detached corps, preparing my division, and making e very exertion to o rga n i ze it, and come up with the enemy, posted in Oruro, the national army passed the Desaguadero at the point of Calacoto, when two companies belonging to the battalions of Victoria and Chasseurs, commanded by the in trepid General Valdez, dispersed the opposing troops, and his triumph would have been complete had not night prevented it. " The Desaguadero was passed by swimming, every obstacle was overcome. The enemy, panic-struck on seeing an occur rence they never imagined possible, commenced his retreat on Oruro. Santa Cruz having formed a junction with Gamarra, and being then in command of six thousand men, did not dare to face an enemy, although of inferior force.—ln the mean while, the Viceroy occupied the point of Sorasora, and established his communications with me. _ _ " This division having joined the main army, on the. 13th inst. the soldiers congratulated each other on past events, anxious to close the campaign. On the 14th, we encamped at Ancon tino, and the next morning arrived at Cicacica, where the enemy had passed the preceding night. His retreat was within our own view, and he left behind him 100 tents, his sick, and a quantity of heavy stores. The cavalry squadron of Tarija, with (men. Valdez at their head, harassed his rear, and pursued him to Ayo-Ayo, in the road taking from him several prisoners. horses, and a quantity of ammunition. At Calamarca we took 81) prisoners, 10 cases of ammunition, the printing establish ment, and 1). Jose Rodriguez, who had charge of it. In Viacha, a squadron of cavalry was surprised, eleven prisoners taken, twenty killed, and the rest dispersed. Our column under the orders of General Valdez, after a hasty march back occupied the Desaguadero. The bridge having been placed at the disposal of the Viceroy, by one of the enemies' officers, named Illachuca, together with three other officers, 140 me n , two pieces of artillery, and the corresponding ammunition, no other alternative was left to Santa Cruz, than that of abandon. ing the remnant of his army, and saving himself, escorted by a part of his cavalry. The other commanders do not know what road to take, and most probably they will fall into the hands of our troops situated on the coast, or those of General Carratala, who is still in pursuit of them. " The campaign has been the most prosperous. With very few shots, an army of 6,000 has been dispersed, 1,508 prisoners have been taken, as many muskets, and 20 Officers. In our possession are their Generals' colours and those of the 3(1 regi ment, nearly a ll th e i r ammun i t i on and art i llery, 100,000 mus kets, cartrid ges , & e . — L a Paz, Sept. 30, 1823. (Signed) " PEDRO ANTONIO DE OLANETA." Bayonne papers to the 7th instant have arrived. The intelligence which they bring from Madrid does not corns down to a later period than the end of the last month, and consists of little more than reports which are not very cre dible. It is said, for instance, that that the party of Dow Car Los (the KiXG'S brother), was becoming so strong, that he had been proclai me d un d er t h e name of C HAR LES V. at Seville, and that the Swiss Guards had be e n o r dered to that city to prevent a re volution. German Papers to the Bth inst. also reached us last night. They state that the King of Sweden had laid before the Storthing a project of law tending to abolish or alter the ancient regulations respecting c ustom-duties. Ac cording to this new plan, the ordinances forbidding the import ation of French, Spanish, and Portuguese wines, except im mediately from their respective countries, would be annulled, and rum, which was subjected to the same restrictions, will be allowed to be imported from English ports. After the expiration of a certain period coffee is not to be imported in any kind of aug ment a theirs reducem on others; the import bales or packages that do not exceed a cwt., and French brandy and rum in cas k s con t a i n i ng a bov e 120 gallons. The plan pro paomrtong dutiesthe latter t e s r m a n r e e foods, cofree, and sugar,to andtobacco.

Yesterday, at three o'clock, a Cabinet Coun cil was held at the Foreign Office, Downing street, which sat in deliberation till about half past four. The LORD CHANCELLOR, the Earl of Harrow by, the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl of Westmorland, Lord Bexley, Viscount Sidmouth, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Secretary Canning, Mr. Wynn, and most of the Cabinet Ministers, were present. This was the first time of Mr. Canning appearing in public business since the decease of his nephew, the Marquis of Titchileld. • A Privy Council was held yesterday, in con sequence, we understand, of intelligence received from the West Indies. Th. Colonial Assemblies continue to hold a high and even menacing lan guage, and the leading men of the different Islands evidently act in concert.--( Morning Chronicle, March 15.)

The letters from Lima contain a confirmation of the former account from Buenos Ayres, re lative to the defeat of the Patriot General Santa Cruz ; but it is evident that a considerable force exists under Bolivar and Sucre, which will pro bably very soon repair the mischief. Extract of a letter from Messina, dated Feb. 18 :—" The Picton, from Malta in 24 hours, ar rived here on the morning of the 15th. The master reports, that the Algerines had taken 20 sail of vessels off and about Sardinia. Orders had been issued by the Admiral at Malta, Sir H. B. NEALE, that no British vessels should quit the port without convoy. He had fixed the first for the eastward for the 15th instant, and for the westward for the tOth. It is said that there is a strong Algerine squadron in the Archipelago, somewhere off Candia."

Tyrnus FLVER.—WP regret to state, that this scourge of the indigent Irish has commenced its ravages amongst the wretched inhabitants of a quarter of our town, which has generally suffered most from disease and po►erty. It is earnestly to be hoped that the poor people residing near the scene of contagion will keep their hovels clean and white washed, and not suffer any accumula tion of filth or ordure near the doors of their cabins. The funds of the sick poor Society are are at a low ebb, and the wealthy part of the inhabitants would do well to replenish them in time—by so doing they may, perhaps, keep dis ease and death from their own habitations.— (Carlow Morning Post, March 11.) THE STONE.—It appears that the French sur geons have obtained a triumph most honourable to themselves, and most precious to humanity.— Dr. CivIALE has succeeded in curing the disor der of the stone without the operation of cutting. His method consists in the introduction of an in strument, which seizes the stone, then crushes it, and reduces it to powder. This ingenious pro cess is far less afflicting, and does not compromise the existence or even the health of patients.— (Paris Paper.)

Shortly before ten o'clock, Spring appeared, and was loudly applauded. The stakes were then deposited—the men shook hands—drank each other's health, and Langan observed, " Let's have no dis agreeable chaffing on the subject ; we'll be friends to-night. at any rate !" Sixty pounds to forty were offered on Spring, but refused; when Langan observed, he would take 70 to 40. " I'll bet you," said Spring, " twice over, if you like."— ! " Agreed,' , said the Irishman, and both the bets were made accordingly. Grog and steamers then became the chief objects of attraction till the night was far advanced. THE MARK ETS. CORN EXCHANGE, 31Ancri 15. The arrivals of last week were good, particularly of Oats. —This morning there are tolerable good quantities of Wheat, Barley, Beans, and Pease, from Essex and Kent, but not much from Suffolk. There are several additional vessels up from the North with Oats. The continued stagnation of our Flour trade still prevents our millers from the buying of \Vheat ; and this article has declined in value Is. to 2s. per quarter, with a dull trade. Barley sells nearly on the same terns as last quoted. lllving some cot.ntry orders for Beans, this article fully maintains the terms of lust Monday. Gray Peas also supports last quotations. Boiling Peas meets a very heavy sale, and they are rather. cheaper. The large arrivals of Irish Oats has had such an effect on our buyers' minds, that they will purchase scarcely any Oats ; and this article is in consequence declined in value Is. to !Is. per quarter. Seed of both kinds continues very dull, and still gives way in price. Wheat, Red ...
