On the 27th the KING transacted business with the Duke de RICHELIEU in the morning ; and about half-past lour o'clock in the afternoon a loud detonation was heard near his MAJESTY'S apartments.

SPANISH MAIN. g'rotn the St.Thoonaes Times Extra.rdillary, SlVitday, Dec. 2 CURAGOA„Dec. 9. The folldWing very important intelligence wa received in this Island on the evening of Wed nesday last from Puerto catrello, and comtnnAi cated to Us the next morning, through a respect able commercial house here - -- • , " On the '27th of last month an armistice was. signed between Generals Morillo and BoliVar, at St. Anna, near Truxilla, consisting of 13 articles, which, however, had not been made public ; but it was understood that they had for their basis the restoration of peace. Two deputies had been appointed on each side to proceed to Spain to arrange matters finally with the Cortes, and were to embark on board the corvette Descubierta, accompanied by General Morillo. They pro ceed in the first place for the Havanna'', and Will there take their passage on board a frigate for Spain." The following extract of a letter from P►serto Cabello, dated the sth instant, gives some further information of these important affairs : " On the 27th ult. ii► the morning, General Bolivar, accompanied by his stair, - met our com missioners at the head quarters of General Mo rillo. The generals embraced each other in the most friendly manner, and bitterly deplored the innocent blood that had been shed in Venezuela; and afterwards the Constitution of the Spanish nation was acknowledged by General Bolivar. Both generals then took up a large stone between them, and placed it in the square of the town to serve as a memorable testimony of their meeting. The day was ,spent with much jo v and enthusiasm, and at night the generals slept in the same room. " On the following day two officers were des= patched with the news of this event to the king dom of St. Fe, two for Calabozo, two. for Guy ana, and two for Margarita : these latter are expected here to-day or to-morrow, and will em bark on board a man of war for their destination. Gen. Morillo granted 40 passports to different officers of General Bolivar's army, to return to their homes, and visit their families. This is all that we know up to this moment of these import ant matters; and thus have happily terminated in an instant the struggles of Venezuela, which have lasted now upwards of ten years." IRMISTICE BETWEEN THE SPANISH AND PATRIOT ARMIES. The Governments of Spain and Columbia, de sirous of stifling the discords existing between the two parties, and considering that the primary and most important step towards the reaching of this happy goal is a reciprocal suspension of arms, in order to explain and understand each other, have entered into an agreement to appoint Commissioners for stipulating and determining up on an armistice ; and to this effect, his Excellency the General-in-Chief of the Expeditionary Army of the Continent, Don Pablo Morillo, Count of Carthagena, on the part of the Spanish Govern ment, has nominated Messrs. Ramon Correa, Po litical Chief of Venezuela, Brigadier-General and first constitutional Alcalde of Caraccas, Don Juan .Rodriguez del Toro, and Don Francisco Gonzalo Linares ; and his Excellency the Pre , sident of Columbla, - Simon BOlivar.,-Las.Chief of , the Republic, on the part thereof, has nominated Messrs Antonio Joseph Sucre, Brigadier-General, Pedro Brisefio, Colonel, and Joseph Gabriel Pe rez, Lieutenant-Colonel, who, after having inter changed their respective credentials on the 22d of the present month and year, and laid down the proposals and explanations desired by both par ties, have agreed and do agree on a treaty of ar mistice, under the clauses specified in the follow- ng articles:— Art.

STANLEY, who, two or three seasons ago was engaged at Drury Lane Theatre for lighter cha racters in genteel comedy, is now both the comic and tragic hero of the Exeter Theatre.

PEARMAN, of the English Opera House, is en• gaged at the Dublin Theatre as the principal singer, until the former commences its short but active season. JOHN FLEMING, Esq. one of the members for Dorsetshire, has made a deduction of 10 per cent. from the rents of his agricultural tenants, and employed a land-surveyor to go over his estates to see what further reduction is necessary to place the rents of the farmers upon a fair level with the low prices of their produce. The hay farmers round the metropolis have had several meetings, for the purpose of reducing the commission paid to the salesmen in the Hay market, Smithfield, and Whitechapel Markets. Yesterday a beautiful iron pump, of great power, was erected over the well sunk in Lin coln's Inn-fields.

The room over it is of the same dimen sions, divided into three compartments ; in the middle rises a dome 50 feet from the ground, and round the room runs a gallery for the display of birds, &c. Over the principal entrance is ano ther spacious apartment, for the reception of minerals. On Monday last an inquisition was taken., by the city coroner of Oxford, on - view of the body of Thomas Dawson Lucas, jun,, aged 35, who, it appeared by the evidence of a surgeon, was seized with a fit of apoplexy in the Townhalt, and expired in a few minutes after he was brought down stairs. The deceased was of a slender frame and weak constitution, and from his eagerness to witless the proceedings on the address, had climb ed tipon' the iron railing in front of the hall, and jumping down, it is conjectured burst 'a blood vessel, which occasioned his death. There were no external bruises or marks of violence on his body, nor was there any pressure against him when he fell, which he did on his knees, with his arms extended, and never spoke afterwards.— Verdict accordingly. FOR THE SUNS Ent:ion—lf we examine the presentstateni Public option in almost every kingdom of Europe, we shalliind, with very few exceptions, that there ekistS'a strong and alarming inclination tq effect some 'change in the existing Government of each COUntry. This spi r it , o f discontent and revoluz tiOktas, no doubt, derived its origin from the aliti'Social principles promulgated in .France by tlie advocates of Jacobinism, at the beginning of the awful and blood-stained period, which, 'daring several years, cowered the once peaceful `and fertile soil of that Country with death, de , solation, and ruin, and the baneful and destruc.; tive effects of which were felt from one extremity of Europe to the other. The seeds of disloyalty • scattered in all directions by the tictive zeal oe the revolutionary Demagogues, who wished _to bring every country upon a level with France, and who had sworn to overturn every Throne, and to extirpate the Christian Religion, have un fortunately sunk root too • ,deep to be easily eradicated. Such •a. disposition of the poa pular feeling, must, alone, have a tendency to disturb the internal tranquillity of every State, and must necessarily undermine the fabric of social order, and of spiritual and tempo ral authority. There is in . the words liberty and equality, a magic spell which acts most power-. fully upon the untutored mind of the unrellecting multitude, who do not, however, thoroughly understand the meaning of these terms, and, still less, comprehend the fallacy of the ideas they are intended to represent. But this very -circum stance • which renders them harmless with the well-informed, makes . theta, when addressed to the lower classes by the preachers of rebellion, the powerful engines by means of which the best established governments may be shaken from their foundations, if not indeed levelled, with the &Ist. • The practice, which now prevails - so univer sally, and which is gaining ground, of teaching the lower orders of society to read,. has been re probated with some appearance of justice, upon the plea that it will lay their minds more open to the baneful doctrines now daily prorlgated by a corrupted and licentious press. re ques tions that involve the possible improq: eat of those mental faculties, which the A ll.wf Crea tor has given to men, no doubt for the test (-;; purposes, we must take a comprehensive view of the subject ; we must balance the mass of good and of evil, which is likely to be produeed, and we must not reprobate a measure of great getseral utility, because a partial evil may arise feein its adoption. It seems illiberal, and even cruel, to deny to the whole mass of our more humble fel low-citizens, those mental enjoyments :'roar which we derive so much benefit and satisfaction,. be cause some of them may employ,the new ideas they will acquire its a manner injurious to th welfare of society. That this effect maybe pro duced, it is impossible to deny ; but that Such must be necessarily the - case is a conclusion,. the fallacy of which may be demonstrated by the ex 'ainPle of the lower order - of people in Stotland, who are better informed than the same class - of society in this, or perhaps in any other country, ho are, ut the same time, loyal and peacc 4hle seb s teets. Again, although the labourer and mechanic, who 'toll hard for 0144 , 41611 susten ance, must feel greatly inclined to adopt a sys. tern which holds out to others the delusive and captivating prospect of affluence and indepen dence ; the same faculty which instills into their mind the baneful and destructive poison, can fur nish them also with the salutary antidote. If the sophism of the propagators of revolutionary principles lead their judgment astray ; by impos ing upon them the ignis * lateens of equality and liberty, as the guide which alone can conduct them to happiness, let the friendly beacon of troth blaze before their eyes, warn them of their danger, and shew them that the alluring paths into which the delusive meteors would lead them, terminate only in desolation and ruin. Whatever prejudices may exist in the mind of a man, however readily he may adopt opinions that flatter his passions, and with whatever eagerness he may attempt to gtasp at any means offered to him by which his condition may be bettered, if this man have a heart, if he be a husband and the father of a family, he will pause ere he adopts doctrines doubtful, if not erroneous in their nature, and to establish which he must risk the peace he enjoys now in his humble lot, perhaps his life, and the possible destruction of his home, of the dear partner of his life, and of their tender and beloved offspring. In opposition to the fanciful and shadowy forms of possible enjoy ments he May attain by a change, let the proba ble and terrific image of the woes he may also experience in the rash and doubtful attempt be exhibited to his view. And, above all, let_the dreadful picture of the miseries which the French people experienced, by lisssning to the voice of rebelli'On, be placed continually before the eyes of every individual who can read the terrific nar ration. Such a mode of proceeding must prOve beneficial to the community ; it Must counter. act the active influence of .seditious writers, it must tend to impart to the lower classes a spirit hostile to every species of innovation, and a disposition to bear certain and known evils, rather than to plunge themselves into certain and inevitable misery, by endeavouring to ame liorate their present condition.- It cannot be supposed that their minds are less open to con viction than those of their superiors in rank and fortune. There is scarcely an individual, how ever liMited his understanding may be, that is not capable of feeling the force of truth, if it be laid before him in its native simplicity. It is, therefore, the 'duty of• every patriotic mind, of every well wisher of his country, of every man who detests anarchy, and rebellion, to counteract as much as lies in his power, the efforts of the advocates of Jacobinistn or Radiculism, to mis lead the multitude, and break asunder the sacred bonds of social order and of loyalty.
