Jamaica Papers to the 29th of April arrived this morning, from which we extract the follow ing articles : (From the Courant of the 28th.) The Republic of Hayti applied some time since to the Co lombianßepublic to'obtain a Treaty offensive and defensive.— The latter Government declined the proposal. We are now furnished by the .Royal Gazette with the grounds on which Abe refusal was made. The answer of the Government of Colombia states, 1. That as the GoTernrnent of Hayti had allowed only 20 days for its _Minister to obtain the Treaty, the time was too short to discuss, much less to decide; a queition of so much im- portancc. • 2. That a Treaty of Alliance, offensive and defensive, might expose the Republic of Colombia to q contest with France, with which Power no controversy existed. 3. That .the Government of Colombia could not enter into such a Treaty without consulting the Republic of Rio de la Plata, Chili, and Peru. That a Congress, consisting of Dele gates from those . .rOwers, would assrtible at Panama in Oc tober next, when the overtures from the Haytian Government would be made, and that there was little doubt of a favourable answer. Charleston Papers to the 10th May have arrived this morning. Letters received at Boston from the Sandwich Islands states, that the yottnk man from the United States, who had revolted, had submitted, with his adherents, to the New Sovereign, and sent in their adhesion. It was reported o►► 'Change this morninz, that the Spanish nun of war, Asia, has been sold to the Colombian Government for 36,000 dollars. • In another part of our Paper will be found the " Resolutions adopted at the Meeting of the .Pro testant Peers, which took place on the 28th ult. at the Duke of BUCKINGHIM'i residence in Lon don, to consider the state - of Ireland." They were proposed by the Marquis of LONDON• PERRY, and unanimously adopted and signed by thirty Peers, • possessing estates in Ireland. Twenty ' other Noblemen have since been added to the list. We were in hopes that the rejection of the Bill for. the Emancipation of the Catholics - by the House . of Lords would have left 4s in- peace on this ques tion until near - upon the commencemeet of the next Session, hot it seems our expec tations have been disappointed, and we are likely to be kept in a constant ferment int pe;tale. polo s m 'Th e leesati ! ons above referred to pledge- the parties to them to a firm support of of the Catholic Question, and recommend to the Catholics firmness, temperance, and union. If there is any sin cerity in these Resolutions, these thirty Ca tholic Peers are hound henceforward and under all views of the question to support the claims of the Catholics in the House of Lords. — This, in the eyes of themselves and of their ! friends, and especially of the Leaders of the Catholic Party, is termed praiseworthy and manly conduct, and no doubt the Resolutions are characterized as liberal and sensible.—We presume, however, we shall not be opposed when we. say that this conduct to be praise worthy and manly must be shewn to be correct and proper, and these resolutions, in order to - be . sensible, must tend to effect a great, a good and a desirable purpose. ft is not our intention to.' deny, but that all these -qualities do attach both to the conduct and resolutions aforesaid, accord ing to the judgments and notions of . those who have thus formed themselves into a junta for the protection and defence of the Catholic subjects of the .KING, but-it is.just possible that a difference of opinion _may exist on this point, it is just possible that people may be fousid equally as sensible, and equally equally as honest, as manly as the several signers of the foregoing resolutions themselves, who do not hold such con duet to be praiseworthy, or consider that such re- Solutions tend to effect a great, a good, and desir able purpose. If such .people are to be found, it would thence follow, that such conduct - in their eyes would be highly improper, and en tirely unbecoming in Peers of the United King dom•; and furthermore than that, although they might acquiesce so far as to grant that, the reso lutions were liberal, (for all acts that tend to re move restraints whether wisely or unwisely -im posed are liberal), they would not hesitate to say, they were not only not sensible but alto gether viciou s and unconstitutional. These Noble Lords will therefore observe that their con duct and resolutions upon this matter are good or bad, exactly in proportion to the opinion every individual may entertain on the expediency or non-expediency of the measure they thus bind themselves to support ; and that in as much as a very large portion of the inhabitants of the United Kingdom have opinions on the subject of the Catholic Claims diametrically opposed to theirs, it thence follows that just so many people would condemn both the one and the other. It is not our place to judge between these two opinions, but we make: these observations in order t o point •OUL the inconsistency of the supporters of the Catholic Question. For after all the abuse, and all the virulence of that Party has been exhausted in vituperating the Duke of YORK for his Speech and conduct in the House of Lords, in reference to this sub-I ject ; a ft e r all the charges of big o t ry , an d a thou-I . , Isttiid other hard accusations- exhibited against his Royal Highness, we find some -of those very men, who were loudest in their T condemnation of the Duke of YORK guilty of the same kind of conduct they so strongly reprehended in hitn• Their, conduct too has this additional. aggrava tion, that whereas his Royal Highness stood up singly and ;alone in the Midst of his adversaries , and opponents, in the face of his country, and spoke his sentiments and fixed determination, these Noblemen took the opposite course, (although Ow same method was open to them), they met in a private dwelling-house and discussed their re . . spective opinions, and when they found them to agree pretty well, they issued to the . world in writing, signed by each of them, and thus sanc tioned' by numbers, those sentiments and opi nions they dared not (for, not having done so, fear must'be implied) individually utter in their ti places in Parliament, unaided and unsupported by each other. After this expoie, we.trust we shall 'rear no more of bigotry and persecution, no moro abuse of his Royal Highness for conduct which reflects so much the more credit upon him when contrasted with that of the Noblemen who signed these resolutions. As we admired the one we _shall not condemn the other; although the circum stances _by which it was attended altogether change its nature, and give a tinge of suspicion to the whole proceeding, enough to make that absolutely wrong, which in the case of the Duke of YoRK entertaining such opinion s s as he did, was correct in itself and highly honourable to him. binu.—We received Bombay Papers to the 20th February. They contradict a rumour which had before reached us by way of Calcutta, that a - flag of truce had been sent in to Sir A. CAMPBELL at Rangoon, by the Burmese, on the 15th January, but which was ascertained by later advices to be without foundation. These papers contain official dis patches from Sir A. CA7411 , 11E1.1.. at Rangoon, dated 14th and 15th January. The first of these contains an account of the attack on the ,fort of Syrian), mentioned in a private letter, already published, and which proved so disastrous to the brave troops employed on that occasion. The following is the mate rial portion of Sir A. CAMPBELL's dispatch " On the tnorning of the llth I Acitached a small force against Svriany .1 7 'ort, consisting of 200 men from his Majesty's 47th Regiment, with a detachment of seamen and marines from the Royal Navy and the Honourable Company's flotilla, under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Ebrington, with orders to scour that part of the country as far as Syri,;al Pagoda, of any enemy to be met with. The Lieutenant-Colonel, in the course of a few hours, came bef.)re that fort, and the bridge over the Nullab leading to, it. Front the landing place h av i ng bee broken dmin, much labour and sonic delay were occasion in repairing it, dorinx which the enemy from behind the works kept up a smart and well-directed fire on the head of the column, which caused some loss; but no sooner were the troops able to cross than they rushed on, and gallantly carried the place by storm. The Licittenant-Colonel afterwards went on to the Syrian] Pagoda, also found to be occupied by ,a -small force of th e enemy , w h o fled 'after the discharge of One volley, and seeing the British troops rush on the assault." By the return of killed and wounded which follows this account, it appears that one officer, Ensign .1. 31. ,GEnnEs, was killed, and three officers wounded—Captain Fottns, severely, but not dangerously; Captain BACKHOUSE and Ensign MAcr.Eon, The loss in men was one killed,• and thirty-one wounded. Sir A. CAMPBELL states in his dispatch of the 15th. of January (notwithstanding the - late !(;) ar defeat of the Burmese) that the enemy were collecting another army for another attack on Rangoon. - Some alarm bad been - excited in Bombay. in consequence of information that serious disturbances had occurred in the - neighbourhood 'of Ouxerat. The truth, as explainedloy subsequent letters, turn, ed out to be, that 400 or 500 Coolies had assembled in the , , Pattun district, but who fled on nearing tnat a force had heed prepared to act against them. .They were pursued by some of the light cavalry from Dessa, and a few of the leaders captured. ST. JAMr.s's PARK,—We have hal many ap p}licntiona from several of the roost respectable inhabitants of 'Westminster, desiring to know if the report that a new range of-buildings was to be erected in St. James's-park, extending nearly - from the Barracks at Buckingham Gate to Story's Gate, was true,' as much uneasiness had been excited by that report. It is certain that a plan, which we have seen, had actually been prepared on the subject. It has been generally conceived that the Park was the property of THE PEOPLE as well as of THE CnowN, and that it was to he solemnly secured for the Public. There is a well-known story of the answer given by the great Earl of CHESTERFIELD to GEORGE the SECOND on this sub ject, which need not be here related, but which evinced his ladrd_ . ship's conviction of the Public Opinion on the question. We are convinced that his present MAJESTY, far, from wishing W. abridge the rights or the pleasure of the people, would rather be disposed to make any proper sacrifice for the security of both. and that be never would have given his sanction to the proposed measure. Happily the subject is now set at rest by the decla ration of the CHAN CE LT.oR of the EXCHEQUER on Thursday night in the House of Commons, viz.—" That there was not any intention to make the StacurrEsT ENCROACHMENT - on• ST. JAMES'S PARE." This is another zdd'ed. to ,the mane proofs that his MAJESTY is anxious for the recreation, as well as for securing the rights, of his Stibjects. - At two o'clock yesterdavfniternoon, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, Which was attended by the Earls of Liverpool, Westmorland, and Bathurst, the Duke of Wellington, Mr. Secretary Peel, Mr. Secretary Canning, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Wynn.

The Reiolthitin's were propcis * ed by. the Marquis of Londonderry, and unanimousiv adopted':,-- " ReSolved, I.• That while we acknowledge, with.gratitude, the measures adopted by Parliament for thegeneralianproye ment and. prosperity: of behind, ,we cannot .but feeLthat fall effect can never be given, to the benevolent intentions of the Legislature, while' Out Roman Catholic fellow-stibiects laboar under civil disqualification ; that every accession of wealth and knowledge must .be increasing the capacity _of exercising the highest civil rights, increase equally thedesire of obtaining them, anti thus aggravate the discontent of those who are aggrieved. " -2. That the civil equalitrof all classes of the people would not endanger the Constitution, : which is best s secured by giving to all an equal interest in its Support—hor the Protestant Faith, which is sectired by its own clear truths, arid by the pious ze a l of our clergy—no r p r operty in.tithes.; which, like all other pro rerty, is secured by law. , "3. That, without such civil equality, there is no hope of permanent tranquillity in Ireland, or of that perfect national union which is alone wanting to complete the greatness of. the empire, and for ever to preserve it from hostile aggression. " 4. That it is expedient "to do an act of justice in a time of prosperity—to confer rights while they will •be received with gratitude —to confer with advantage what cannot be refused with safety—and to adopt in peace a measure which may be forced upon us in war, and which the uncontroullable course of time must evidently force upon us soon. " 5. That we, the undersigned Protestant Peers, possessing property in Ireland, most earnestly recommend to our Roman Catholic fellow-subjects, firmness, temperance, and union that we desire them to rely on us as the determined friends ortheir just cause. sod . upon the good sense of their Protestant fellow subjects; for the ultimate recovery of their civil rights."

It has been the subject of general remark and ap probation, that men so recently raised throughout the county by ballot, should have been enabled to make so soldier .like an appearance in the very short space of one month ; and we have been gratified to hear that 'the proficiency of the men in the drill exercise has been such as to be very highly credit. able to the officers, to whose perseverance and attention it is principally to be attributed. We are happy to join in the praise so universally given to the corps for their orderly. conduct during the time that they have been stationed here; and we sincerly hope that the Same good feeling which hap prevailed between the University and the City Authorities and our County Regiment on this occasion, may always continue to exist.

The `Chancellor of the Exchequer observed, that there was a great difference in the distance be tween England and Ireland, and,that between, England and the colonies; however, he had no objection to split the difference, and make it three halfpence. This was agreed to. • • DISTRESSING SUICI DE.—Yesterday hfternoon an Inquisition was held at the Anchor and Hope Tavern, Ja maica -street, Commercial-road, before Mr. Urrwm, the Co roner, upon the body of Mrs. Salmons, who came to her death under the following distressing circumstances :—lt appeared that about two months since the husband of the deceased, through unforeseen difficiilties, became embarrassed in his circumstances, and was arrested for a debt of 181. ar i s i ng out o f a bill which he indorsed to accommodate a friend, and he d'ats sent to Whitecross-street Prison, where he still remains. Dur ing his confinement the deceased endeavoured to support herself and family by following her husband's business, but the expences attending her husband's imprisonment, together with that of her family, so much. exceeded her income, that she became in arrears of rent with her land lord, who put a distress on her goods, and they were taken in execution. Thus situated she was obliged to go into a miserable lodging, and still continued her busines on a small scale, but the thought of not being able to release her husband from incarceration, acted so much on ' her mind, that she became dreadfully depressed and melan choly, and on Wednesday mornirg she was found in, the 'garden behind the house suspended from an iron hook in the wall by a clothes line. • The Jury, after hearing the testimony of the witnesses to the a h ove effect, rcturned a verdict, " Th at the deceased committed suicide while latoaring under telly°. rary derangement." The four children of the deceased are left quite unprovided for by the death of the mother and Ae.impri sonrre it of die father.
