SOUTH 11 NI MICA. 'GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY OF THE ISTHMUS. PA.NAM'A,SERT. ‘7, 1824.—8 y the Colombian schooner Don Quixotic, in 17 days from llnan chino, and which anchored to-clay in this har bour, the General Commandant and Intendant has received the following communication : " REPUSLIC OF PERM-PREFECTURE OF TUE DEPART 11ENT OF TRUXILLO. " Tnuxil.LO, Auo. 18, 1824. • "To the Intendantand General Commandant of the Depart ment of the Isthmus of Panama. " is with the greatest pleasure that I have the'ho - Dour to 'enclose to your Excellency the Gazette Extraordinary of this city, which contains the official statement of the brilliant • battle of Junin which I received last night. " This - first success opens the door to the best founded and • flattering expectations, and is a presage of the conclusion of that war which has laid waste the rich country of Peru. The bat talion of Zulia, the squadron of Guilts, the Dragoon Guards, went into quarters the day after the action ofJunin. " Although the report of the Secretary-General is exceed ingly accurate, permit me to communicate to you several cir cumstances of lesser note which have come to my knowledge by means of private letters from the army, which render this action still more glorious. " More than one thousand of the enemy's horse, who were advantageously posted, have been completely routed by four hundred of ours. " Canterac, on his side, and the Liberator, on ours, com mended their cavalry in person. Canterac fled before the Libe rator, and has felt his irresistible power. " The cavalry was the flower of 'the Royal army, and was 'composed of .veteran soldiers, the most part of whom were Spaniards. •"l'he contest was terrible, and our cavalry performed pro digies of valour. Canterac exerted his utmost ability and - courage, but was compelled to 'fly in disgrace, with very few • of those 'brave .men who constituted almost the third part of those whom he commanded. The Liberator appeared conspi cuous in every place of danger ; but his presence, which availed more than an army, created despair in Canterac and his veteran • soldiers. " The people here have received this• news. with transports •of joy, .whictrl ant unable. to describe. There is no one who has not been enlivened' by the pure air of a liberty which' with good reason, expects to see consolidated by that genius . which has aloneundertaken to give them their country, peace, and renown. am,Slr, your most obedient bumble servant, " JOSEPH GABRIEL PEREZ. " TO TILE COLONEL•PREFECT or TILE DEPARTMENT OF " Sir,—Under date of the 7th of this month, the• Secretar y of bix Excellency the Liberator -writes me the fol lowing:— " OFFICE OF SECRETARY-GENERAL. 44 111:An-tairmyrrit5, R EYES, A uo. 7, lON. TO THE HLN IST Ell,O ENTEHAL OF THE • AFFAIRS OF PERU. " By the command of his Excacncy.the Liberator, I have • the satisfaction to announce to you, that yesterday, at five in the afternoon, the Spanish army experienced a dreadful bumf liation c,n the plains of Junin, two and a half leagues from this rplace. The cavalry, on which the enemy principally relied for the subjection of Peru under the Spanish yoke, has been beaten -In such a manner that itAvill not again present itself on the field e of battle. 4 " His Excellency, informed that the enemy lied approach , ell for the purpose of reconnoitring us with the whole of his forces united, began his march with the liberating army from t•Conocancha, with the determination of bringing them to a de .,.cisive action. In the mean time the enemyewho had advanced ..as far as Pasco; retraced their steps by forced marches; in con - sequence of 'the notice they had received of the direction which our army had taken. " ' His Excellency reckoned upon forcing them to a general ~engagement; by posting himself in their rear on the road which they must have taken towards Jauja ; but the precipitate haste -with which they marched enabled: them to reads and even to pass the , point in .which.we should have attacked• them several -hours before our army, which had along journey to perform 'through a rough and uneven tract of country, could come up. . `Upon this his Excellency, observing that the enemy continued ;Their retreat without intermission, and considering, on the other hand, that the opportunity of relieving this • unfortunate land front oppression, and of deciding the fate of the country, bad escaped bkn, determined to advance in person with cavalry, which was under the command of the intrepid Gen. Nicochea, it a trot, and to post it in ; the very plain Which was occupied by the enemy, hoping that when the, perceived us, they would boldly Via!' the opportunity which presented itself of, • gratifying their desires ; or that, viewing the inferiority of our cavalry, they would hazard an .action to,.save the .whole of their army. The event answered these expectations; for; through a tilled confidence in their cavalry, the enemy charg ed our horse in a situation very disadvantageous to us. The shock of these two bodies was tremendous, .and at the end of the different conflicts, hi which both parties- seemed to obtain the advantage, the enemy's cavalry, though superior in number and bettor mounted than ours, was thrown into con fusion, beaten, and driven back with greakalaughter to the files ef their infantry, which, daring the action, had continued its march towards Jauja, and was many leagues - from .the field when the battle was decided. Our cavalry has evinced a courage which my pen is unable to express, and which can only be conceived by reverting to the ages of chivalry. " 'The result of this brillittut battle has been • 235 dead on • the field, amongst -whom were 10 chietii and officers. More than 300 well-equipped horses have been taken. " "rbe loss on our aide in killed and wounded is but no ; amonget the former, Captain Urbina, of the Horse-grenadiers • of C,'olumbia, and Lieutenant Cortes,.of the Ist Regiment , of the Cavalry of Peru. Among the latter, Brigadier-General Nicoebe,a, with seven wounds; none of which.. are dangerous; Gulonel Carbajal, of the Horse-grenadiers of Colombia; the Commandant Soberri, of the 24 division of the Regiment of Peru ; Alajor .. Philip Brum end Captain Peraza, both of the Chivalry of Colombia. The first and two last slightly, but the second rather severely : of the rest, few are in. danger. The war of Peru would have been concluded yesterday, if the enemy's infantry had not continued its march without ceasing at a rapid pace, and if ours had been able to fly, ns.we must have done to have reached them, because all burned with the desire of de stroying their enemies. They have , taken warning by experi ence, and their terror is-so great; that since yesterday-morning they have not ceased matching, not even during the night. " c To-morrow the army will continue its operations; and . I flatter myself that I shall very soon date my communication to you from the valley of Jauja.. I congratulate you and the whole of Peru on the success of yesterday, which, as it is the beginning,ef,the.campaign, augurs a still more fortunate result. ;.:The.land‘of the Incas is wet with the blood of their oppressors, and will willingly offer to the oppressed the beautiful plains in which the precious tree of liberty has arisen ; and those who have been conquerors for fourteen years will not leave these humiliated inhabitants without bringing to their recollection the crimes which they have committed in the time of their prosperity. His Excellency wishes that you would circulate the information among all the people.and authorities of the .country. ""rncous HERES, " Secretary-General of the Interior.' " Pilled with joy which my heart .could not resist, at con templating the fortune of my country thus confirmed for ever, I transcribe the foregoing for your Lordship to circulate to the authorities under your controul, and that the people of that praiseworthy department may know that victory has begun to crown, in a decisive manner, their incessant sacrifices.; and to the end that it may bring to their recollection the singular dr. 'cumstance that the same day, the 7th of August, 'in which his :Excellecy the Liberator.euibarked for Peru, he announced the first triumph of the Liberator's arms ; and that this brilliant victory being celebrated in proportion to its importance, may exalt the public gratitude to those brave men who have fought under the command of his Excellency, as well as those noble passions which arc accustomed' in similar cases, to transport the hearts of those to whom there is no greater good upon earth than liberty. " I congratulate you, as a son of: Colombia, and the whole republic, for Peru is indebted to its arms for ever victorious in this heroic. action. " JOSEPH SANCIIES CARRION. " Peruvians! Already our fortune is secure. Let us give glory to those brave men who have sealed the liberty of Peru with their blood. Let us give glory to the immortal Bolivar, who has caused the•palm of victory to spring up from the but ton' of the precipice ! Tyrants fly with fear, and find no ally. lum in flight. The soldiers of liberty follow, and who can escape from their valour ? Intrepid Necochia, valiant Carbajal, and you heroes who have signalized yourselves in this memo rable engagement, you will ever beremembercd with gratitude by your country, and your names will be perpetuated with glory ! 0 most glorious day of August ; .you will ever 'be.gra , titying to the whole continent of Atoerica, and your memory will ever be celebrated by future generations. Almost at the same instant, in which several years before the hero of Colom. bia bad gathered laurels on the plains of Boyaca —almost at the same instant in which the year before he sailed for the first time from Guayaquil for these shores, he has now annihilated the haughty power of Spain, thrown down their detested banners, and secured the liberty of Peru." TURKISH FEMALE COSTUME. CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 9.—The following Is the firma!) of the Grand Srignor respecting the toilet of the Turkish-women:— " Since the women must never, when they go out, deviate from the rules of decency and honour, it is especially necessary to take care that none of their actions be contrary to the holy law. " Aulmperial-firman has•already been published to hinder ' them from wearing embroidered prides and improper colours. The duty of the officers to whom that &man was addressed was to see its execution. They have not done so. In these latter times, therefore, certain women' have been seen to change the tone of decency and honour for manners the least becoming in Mussulmen. .They have-•not feared to wear embroidered feredges, and condemnable colours, and go to the public walks -with extraordinary veils, which sutler their faces to be seen. " Such conduct is equally contrary to the divine law, and to my supreme .will. It is evident that the Government must put a stop to such an irregularity, and that WIG also the absolute duty of husbands to take care that their wives do not go out in a dress which, being irreconcileabla to decency and honour, cannot be suitable to Illussulman women. "'Henceforward, therefore, the woman shall not wear em broidered Atedges, nor condemnable colours, nor veils artfully contriyed to show their faces ; whoever be the husband or re. lotions of all those who may be seen in such a dress, they shall be niatle answerable, and punished fur the conduct of their women. ". You, my Cadi, will transmit the present order to all the Imans to be published in all the quarters, and you will em ploy die greatest diligence to hinder the women from going out in r costume which our imperial will has prohibited. " (liven in the month of Aluhartens, the year 1210."—(Sep. tetnber, 11324.) THE GREEKS. (From the Al!genuine Zeitung of Nov. 9) CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 11.—For this week past unfavourable' reports have been in circula tion, and Captains from Mitylene affirm that the greater part of the fleet is destroyed. So much seems certain, that a new attempt upon Samos has failed, and that hereupon a considerable di vision of the fleet, being separated by a storm, Ives pursued by the Greeks, and at length burned near Mitylene. All that could save themselves fled to the Dardanelles. Au Egyptian division was still engaged. The accounts of the war by land are equally dismal. The army of the Se raskier Dervisch Pacha, which was to conquer the Mores, and to reinforce which 2,000 Janis series were sent, was entirely destroyed when the latter arrived. The Janissaries immediately turned back, and left their commander in the lurch. Several of them have arrived here, and increase by the accounts they give the general alarm. Most of the Paellas to whom the Porte has sent money for the expellee of the military preparations, have kept it for their own use. OaassA, OCT. n.—According to letters from Constantinople of the 17th inst., news had been received there that the division of the Egyptian fleet which was separated from the rest (as we have before stated), and which, after the flight of the. Capitan Pucha to the Dardanelles on the 7th of October, had escapee! destruction, was overtaken► by the Greeks on the Oth of October, and totally destroyed. Of the great combined armada nothing remained to combat, and the Greek Archipelago is freed from the barbarian flag. The heroism which the Greeks have dis played in the campaign makes an impression that it is impossible -to describe, and nobody now de ceives himself respecting the probable ,conse quences of such great events. Ixtract of a letter from the agent to Lloyd's at Constanti nople, dated October 11 :—" By advice* from the Dardanelles, he Capitan Pacha has returned there in a two-decker, accom panied by a large frigate, six small armed vessels, some gun boats, and-ten tramiports. '.A. frigate has also arrived here, with a number of vessels, but cone of auy force, said to be prizes to thefleet this year. The masters of vessels arrived here state, that a considerable naval engagement took place between Scio and , Alicone on the 7th and Eth instant, but of which the re sult had not been determined when they left those parts. It is certain that the Pacha could not have been engaged, as the vessels above-mentioned had previously arrived at the ,Dar dunelle.s." (From the LONDON GAZETTE, Nov. 10.) BANKRUPTS. C.

The blade, which was well tempered, and without the least flaw, was accordingly broken in the pre sence of several respectable individuals, when a piece of straw, as described was tinind .enclosed, although the m etal had repeatedly to be he a t e d before It was properly tempered.

(On Thursday morning, as a man named Cropp was walking at the bottom of the Marsh at Southampton, he saw in the water what he su pposed was a pair of trowsers, but on examining it, he found, to his horror, a female child, wrapped up, which some depraved wretch must have left there. An inquest was held on. the body, and a verdict returned - ".Found drowned."_. ( Salisbury Journal.) POLICE OFFICE, BOWSTREET. Yesterday a respectably dressed young woman, who seemed by her manner to possess an abundance of the milk of human kindness, with but a very small portion of what is called knowledge of the world, approached the Bench, and curtseying respectfully to the Magistrates, requested their as sistance under these circumstances :—She stated that about eleven years ago a younger brother of hers, who from infancy bad been addicted to wild habits, absconded from his parents and enlisted into the 83d Regiment of Foot. None of the family had ever seen him from the hour of his enlistment, and for the last four or five years they had not even heard of him.— On Sunday night last, about twelve o'clock, as she and her mother were retiring to rest, they heard a loud knocking at the dour, and the applicant opening it saw a tall and fine looking young man in the stable dress of a dragoon, who asked her if she had not a brother, who some years ago ran away and enlisted foi a soldier? She replied in the affirmative, and supposing that the visitor had brought some intelligence of her brother invited him into the parlour, and he there asked her smilingly what she would give to see him ? She replied that she should be most happy to see him, but she had nothing to give, observing, " I have no property, Sir, in the world but what you see about me." The visitor then turned to her mother and said, " Don't you know me ?" The mother said she had no recollection of him. " Indeed !" replied the soldier, " why it's rather strange that a mother should not know her own child. lam your son, my dear mother." The applicant and her mother stared at this announcement, and doubted its truth, for they could trace none of the linetunents of the family in the face of the soldier : but recollecting that he was but a growing boy when he left them, and that long service sometimes effects a wonderful change in " the human face," they began to believe that he was • really their long lost relation, and they were confirmed in their belief when he mentioned several family matters of a private na ture. They embraced him very affectionately, and although the hour was late, they procured him meat and drink, and while at supper he entertained them with a brief narrative of his services abroad. lie said he had lauded only thelday before at the Lon don Docks from foreign service, that he was then without money, but that he had arrived at4the rank of serjeant-major ' and was to go on the following morning to the Duke of York's Office to re ceive arrears of pay. They, knowing nothing of military effairs, believed this to be true, and congratulated him of course on his good fortune. The applicant had a small gold watch which hap pened to be lying on the table, and her supposed brother took it upend said, " This is a pretty watch, sister; I want a watch, and I shall keep it." The applicant said she must object. to that, for the watch was a present front a particular friend, and she could not part with it. He, however, laughed, and put it in his pocket ; and she, conceiving him to be only in joke, said no more about it. They made up a bed for him ' and in the morning the applicant was stirring'be times, and having prepared breakfast for her newly-found brother, cleaned Ins boots, brushed his jacket, and prepared him as well as she could for his visit to the Duke of York's Office. While he was taking his breakfast she said she would go and fetch her brothers and sisters, who lived hard by, to see him ; but to this he objected, observing, that he did not wish to be " reviewed" in that manner just then. She pressed it, and he then said, " Do you suspect that I am not your brother, that you want me to be reviewed by all the family in this manner? I am shabby now, stop till lam smarter." She and her mother thought this very odd, hut attributed it to his pride, or they might perhaps have had some suspicion. When he had finished his breakfast he walked out of the parlour, as they supposed merely to the door, but they were deceived, for he went entirely away, and they saw no more of him. He took her gold watch away with him. Mr. HALLS said the story was a very singular one. He could not help wondering at the credulity of the applicant and her mother, especially when they both declared that there way not the slightest trace of their relation to be observed in the features of the impostor. That service must be hard, and the climate extraordinary indeed which could effect so total change that a mother and a sister could not discover the slightest resemblance of what their son and brother formerly was. An active officer was then desired by the Magistrate to snake inquiry, and endeavour to apprehend the impostor. sta an nee lr o is f h t m h a e n ;r w is a l B r it e N tr m ic , k at S t i h te e et i a n , officers shot of before st. u Li a r , It. on the charge of having cruelly beaten and tortured his son, a child eight years of age. Bowers, one of the beadles of St. Giles, going his rounds in the course of the day saw the little boy sitting upon the step of a door near the Seven Dials, crying and rubbing his back, seem ingly in great agony. The beadle asked what ailed him, and the child said that his father had treated him so cruelly that he was obliged to run away, and he was afraid to return home. The beadle asked him some questions, and he said that his father was in the habit of beating hint until the blood flowed, and that he had that day come home from the gin shop and without any cause lie stripped him naked and lashed him with a thick rope upon the bare akin until he cut the flesh and made him bleed. He cried with the pain, and because he would not " hold his tongue" his father seized him by . the two ears and threw him upon the tire. His back came against the hot bar of the grate and was burnt. The beadle hearing this recital thought it his duty to represent the case to the parish officers, and took the boy with hint. They examined his back, and found a burn ex tending across from one shoulder to the other, which had evitlently been occasioned by a hot bar. The back was also much lacerated, and the child exhibited other marks of extreme ill treatment. The defendant did not deny the charge, and urged in the way of extenuation that the boy was perverse and obstinate, adding that lie thought every father had a right to do as he pleased with his own child, and that lie did not see what right other people had to interfere. Sir It. Itiatrein said the law must teach the defendant that this doctrine of his was very erroneous. The parish officers had done great credit to themselves by bringing the case forward, and he hoped they would follow it up by a prosecution. The defendant was ordered to give 411 hours notice of bail, and was meanwhile committed. MR. FAUNTLEROY.—PreviousIy to the recent interview between Mrs. Fauntleroy and her hus band, the lady who had some time lived with him, and by whom he has two children, was in the constant habit of visiting him at Newgate. Some of his friends, however, having hinted to him the propriety of such visits being disconti nued under present circumstances, he imme diatelyshcaasrctetolyt o c m a i l t le te d d since fora t s o in s g e l e e d h a im y ea so d a so l m la e s concurred with their suggestion, and she : to h s i p s hours with him. Mr. Fauntleroy's health, which had been particularly good, has, it is said, within the last few days, rather declined ; his spirits have, in consequence, suffered some slight degree of depression. By his own desire be sees fewer of his friends than 4teretofore, and is daily visited by one or other of two very respectable clergy men, whose benevolent attention appears to be highly acceptable to him.—On Sunday last, when Mr. Cotton, the Ordinary of Newgate, was per forming divine service in the chapel, which was extremely crowded with prisoners, a female con vict, who has been sentenced to die, was dread fully affected. She fell into hysterics, and was taken from the chapel, but those who remained behind heard her shrieks for half an hour after wards. The circumstance was awful beyond de scription. Mr. Fauntleroy, and other convicts whose cases are considered desperate, were list ening with solemn attention to the Ordinary, who was delivering a sermon calculated to fix the at tention of common hearers. The effect was such that the Ordinary could scarcely proceed. Mr. Fauntleroy covered his face with his hands, and seemed quite overwhelmed with affliction. We stated some days back that the Recorder would make his Report in the course of this week, or very early in the next. It is now understood that the Privy Council is to he summoned to meet at Carlton-house on Saturday next, when the King will come to town for the purpose of re ceiving the report of both September and October Sessions.—( Times.)

Preston concealed the royal boy ; and with inviolable fidelity kept the secret of his birth, until be attained the age of patriotic action. • Far PaoTzus's Third • Letter, see our Fourth Page• PRICE OF STOCKS TIM Rawl( Stock 232 2313 3 per Cent.
