We have been favoured with the perusal of a private letter, dated " Havannah, 20th June." — The Ilebe, which arrived there on the 11th, in 41 days from London, had been plundered oil' Cape Romano by pirates, who not only took out the most valuable part of her cargo, but destroy eA many of the letters and paper parcels, and barbarously ill-treated the Captain and crew. — Another British vessel had been treated in a similar manner a few days previously.—The let ter concludes as follows: " The last accounts from Vera Cruz represent things as very unsettled. The Republican Yturbide has declared himself Em peror, under the title ofAunusTlNE the First. It has astonished the natives here; this has been done by the soldiery, though re port says that the Congress formed there opposed it much. It is also said here that three parties will shortly spring up, YTURBIDE, as Emperor; a second, the Priests, and those who are against YTUBBIDE, for the establishment of the old course of things; and a third,who are for the Republican Govern ment. For my own part I incline to think that YTURBIDE will maintain himself, and th..t he promises to become a second BUONAPARTE, and I should not be surprised if he were to overturn the whole Americans. Nay, they even talk of nomi nating a Pope, and excommunicating the Pope of Rome. The Scout brig of war is expected daily from Jamaica." New York Papers arrived this morning to the 11th July. IMPORTANT.-By an arrival from Coro, the following offi cial important intelligence has been received : Official Despatch from Gen. MORALES to' Governor Carrera Colino. Yesterday morning at day-light I commenced my march from Juritiba, for the purpose of attacking the enemy," who, according to information that I had received, were in the vici nity of Buchivacoa. On my arrival I learnt that the enemy had marched to Davajuro. I immediately ordered that the division should counter-march by the road of the Hato del Padre, for the purpose of refreshing the troops, it being about twelve o'clock. They had not finished, when I found myself suddenly attacked in the rear with great impetuosity, and after a vigorous resistance made by the rear-guard, assisted by several columns which I ordered to advance upon the enemy. I succeeded in completely routing them, and dispersing them in every direction, hotly pursued by my troops. The loss of the enemy consists of Colonel Pinango and seven officers, who have fallen into our hands, and upwards of 200 ' rank and file in killed, wounded and prisoners. Our loss has been very trifling in comparison with that of the enemy, and as soon as I receive the returns I shall inform you of the result. I have ordered Colonel Lorenzo to pursue the enemy in the direction of the Pedregal, by which road they are flying in the most shameful manner. I have the honour to communicate this important intelligence to you, for your own satisfaction, and that of the troops and towns under your command. God preserve you many years.

The troops of General Soublette were completely routed and dispersed yesterday. I still continue pursuing his flying forces, which are every moment falling into my hands. I communicate this for your satisfaction, and that of the loyal inhabitants of Coro. Gon preserve you many years. Commandancia General Zarsarilla, 4 o'clock, A. u. Bth .June, 1822. The confidence of Europe in the resources and unconquerable determination of the Greeks, must be greatly strengthened by their signal success over the Turkish fleet, and by the vigour which they display in prosecuting the war of freedom in which they are engaged. At a time when the general acknowledgment of the hide pendence of the new Governments of South Ame rica is supposed to be near at hand, it may not be uninteresting or unimportant to take into con sideration the grounds on which the Government established by the victorious Greeks is entitled to demand the recognition of its independence, and on which the territory which they have al ready succeeded in wresting from the hands of military usurpers, may claim to be regarded as an independent State. The only obstacle to the recognition of the independence of the re volted Spanish Colonies, is the reluctance mani fested by Spain to relinquish her supremacy, and the conflicting claims which are of course shut. put forth by a Government de jure, against the more substantial pretensions of the existing Governments de facto, which have superseded the authority of the Parent State. And this dif ficulty solely results from the consideration that the empire of Spain over her colonies was a legitimate sovereignty; and that, though her American provinces have actually severed them selves from her authority, her rights are not an nihilated by their success, so long as she retains the disposition to employ her power for reducing them to obedience. The case of the Greeks, however, is very different from that of the South American Independents. The Empire of the Turks over them was not origi nally, and never has been, of a legitimate nature. The Turks have never possessed the sovereignty, de jure, but have merely constituted a Govern ment de facto, over the countries which they had subjected by the power of the sword. The right of sovereignty, inherent in the Greek nation, has not been annihilated, and could not be anni- hilated, by the successful usurpation of the Turks. While the Turks have been their Rulers de facto, the Greeks have retained the right of asserting and re-establishing their independence, whenever a favourable opportunity for So doing should arise. What, then, are the present relations of the Greek and Turkish Govern ments, on the plainest principles of justice, and the strictest interpretation of the laws of nations? The Turks, having lost the authority of a Government de facto over the provinces which have been recovered from them by the Greeks, retain not a shadow of sovereignty, either de facto or de jure over those provinces. The Greeks, on the contrary, immediately on having broken the Ottoman power in a portion of their country, and immediately on having establish ed a Government over that portion, constituted a sovereignty which was instantly invested with all the attributes and character of a Government both de facto and de jure. The attempts of the Turks to reduce them are not the efforts of a le gitimate government to bring back its revolted subjects to obedience, but the efforts of a foreign power to reduce, a second time, an independent nation to slavery, by conquest. In all negocia tions with Turkey, therefore, the integrity of GREECE should be insisted on by the Courts of Europe ; and her war against GREECE should be regarded as a war of aggression and conquest, which all the States of Europe are bound to The Lon]) CIIANCELLOR has brought in his promised Bill for the improv.ement of the Bank rupt Laws. The Bill, after being printed, is to stand over till next Session, in order to afford ample time for the examination and discussion of its provisions. It is highly desirable that they should receive the most attentive consideration from Members of the begislature, the practi tioners of the law, and the commercial public. STOCKBRIDGE ELECTION. - h e recent contest at Stockbridge has terminated and Mr. STANLEY is returned. Mr. BAMIAM having vacated his seat for that Borough, indicates a change in the influence which has prevailed there for several years ; and it is said that a Noble Earl, who has large possessions in Cheshire and Middlesex, has lately purchased considerable property in and near Stockbridge. [From another Correspondent.]-0n Tuesday last, Mr. STANLEY, grandson to the Earl of DERBI, was elected Member of Parliament foi the Borough of Stockbridge, instead of Mr. BAR HAM, sen., who has accepted the Chiltern Hun dreds. -Colonel COOKE attempted an opposition, but did not attend the hustings. It is reported that an alliance has lately taken place between the GROSVENOR. and STANLEY families, which may account for the recent choice of the Stock bridge freeholders. THE PROROGATION.—In answer to the various applications made yesterday to the Lord Great Chamberlain's (Lord Gwynya's) Office, at the House of Lords, by Peers, Peeresses, and other persons, for tickets of admission on Tuesday, it was answered that his Lordship could not com ply with such requests, until he had heard from the Loan CHANCELLOR, which he expected to do in the course of the evening. The usual summonses to the several Officers of State, &c. were yesterday prepared. The regulations, and directions regarding the Peers' admissions, at tendance, &c. will, however, appear in this evening's Gazette. littsx ABSENTEES.—By the English Statute, 1 HEN. 6, stat.l, cap. 4, " All Ilish who have " benefices or offices in Ireland shall abide upon " them, on pain of losing the profits." On Thursday night Mr. ELLIS, the King's Messenger, arrived at the Foreign Office, in Downing-street, with dispatches from St. Peters burgh. Letters from Pernambuco, dated the Bth of June, were yesterday received in the City. Every thing was quiet there, nothing particular having occurred since the determination of the Provisional Government to adhere to the system acted on at Rio Janeiro, for which purpose they had been invited. Some of the letters received express a degree of apprehension in case Pernam- I buco is attacked by Portuguese troops, FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS.

I.—Her Royal Highness the Princess AUGUSTA arrived at Leamington about eight o'clock on Tuesday evening. A triumphal arch, decorated with laurel and transparent lamps, was erected opposite the Royal Hotel ; and several carriages were in attendance, which followed the Princess to the lodgings prepared for her in Union Parade. A vast concourse of the most distinguished visitors at the Spa, as well as the principal inhabitants, surrounded the house, and testified their joy by repeated huzzas.—This morning her Royal Highness, attended by Dr. BRIGHT, and part of her suite, went to the Royal Pump Room, to drink the mineral waters : after which she walked for nearly an hour round the Mall and public Parade, and seemed to receive the congratula tions of the company with the most gracious courtesy. Her Royal Sister, the Duchess of GLOUCESTER, is expected t o - mo rrow evening, and preparations are making at the Public Rooms, &c. for an illumination. .34A 40 , •••• ,-,- ~ i g • i t —in •te -.,r ,?..,,) CZ - S i ' ' , .1.: e, ~, ,-) ip-, „.. rm, 1: : 7 ) 4? , 1--_,71, --'.• 4 '2 ~"1 11 1F.,;F- .: z• -•,e.,: : : , ', ( CIE/ Sb , •f • ' ... ri, . -... , -.. 0.

The preparations making by the public bodies for the Royal reception extend to almost every individual, and to every nook in the City. Addresses, odes, and congrdtula dons in prose and verse, are in active preparation ; and already do our streets resound with the old ballad— " Peggy an' the King come, Peggy an' the King come, Ye shall dance and I will sing, Peggy an' the King come." It has also been mentioned that the Royal Company of Archers would claim their ancient privilege of forming the body guard of his Majesty while he remains in the capital—a privilege which his Majesty has m,. ;t readily accorded them ; and they are now most actively preparing to fill this post of honour with clue Mot. They will of course go through the ceremony of presenting the King with a quiver of arrows • and it is thought not improbable th at his Ma j est y , following the ex ample of his ancestors, Kings of Scotland, in their royal tours, may institute sonic new Prize for the competition of the Royal Archers. All the public works are proceeding with the utmost ala crity • in the Parliament House gre at p re p arations are making for the Banquet, which, we believe, will not be inferior either in the variety and excellence of the viands, or in splendoUr of de coration, to the feast given in your Guildhall, to the Allied Sovereigns, some years ago. It being expected that his Majesty will attend Divine Servica in the High Church, we are preparing a Royal scat, which we feel somewhat ambitious to render more splendid than that which his Majesty occupied in the Cathedral at Dublin. The University, the Royal College of Physicians, the Society of Writers to the Signet , and sev eral other Public Companies, have already voted Addresses to his Majesty; and every day Meetings are convened, not only in this City, but in the several Counties of Scotland, for the same purpose. An Extraordinary Meeting of the Commission of the last General Assembly of the Church of Scotland is appointed for Friday, the 9th of August, for the purpose of considering of a dutiful and loyal Address to his Majesty on his visit ; and a General Meeting of the Guildry is convened for Tuesday next, for the same purpose. The Town Council of the Royal Burgh of Cupar have al ready met, and agreed to an Address to his Majesty • and they' have further resolved, that the Burgh shall be splendidly illu minated, in honour of the King's visit, on the 12th of August next ; that a bonfire shall be lighted up at the Cross, and that there shall be a public dinner in the Tontine Tavern ; and, in order that the poor of the Burst may be enabled to participate in the general rejoicing on this occasion, a dinner is to be pro vided for them at the expence of the town. In the general bustle that universally prevails, the Ladies are not, I assure you, the least active • many o f our countr y lasses have already " changed their plaiden coat for silk," and the innocent ambition of each Lady outstepping her neighbour in the richness and elegance of her dress has strongly manifested itself among our city belles. Nor are the Gentleman behindliand in this respect ; all our tailors have long been in requisition, not to mention that you exported us some of your own men, of modes from Bond-street, and that extensive broker in court dresses, Mr. Solomon, from Charing Cross ; our old friend Sandy Craig, however, comes in for his due share of business, as he receives a supply of court dresses, cocked hats, and swords, by every mail. The annual competition of Pipers commenced this morning; the meeting has been unusually numerous, on account of the eagerness of some of the Highland Pipers to welcome his Ma jesty in the national music of the country, to which we hear he has always been partial. The gallantry of a Clerk to an eminent Solici tor, who resides in the North of Hampshire, is the topic of general conversation in all the coaches on the Western road, and the recent cir cumstances which have occurred in a Northern City have contributed greatly to increase the public curiosity on the subject. ENGLISH OPERA. HO — USE.—MISS CAREW was able to resume her station last night at this Thea tre, as Polly in The Beggar's Opera. The languor naturally resulting from her recent indisposi tion gave an air of tenderness to the character, which increased its influence on the feelings, though it was difficult to suppose that such inte resting manners could accompany the daughter of a Thief-taker. She gave the airs with sim plicity, and rescued " Cease your Funning" from those flourishing excesses which too frequently destroy its pathos. Miss KELLY has always been admired for the manner in which she blends the dejection of disappointed love with the re sentful spirit that marks the character of Lucy, and she was equally successful in that judicious expression of mingled emotions last night. BART LEY, one of the best general actors of the day, gave the part of Lockit with characteristic force and hnmour.—We should have admired the Mac heath of PEARMAN more if he had omitted the laugh %sith which he concluded the song of " how happy could I. be with either," as it was neither consistent with humanity or humour; nor indeed with the character of Macheath, who, though a highwayman, is drawn with some traces of the gentleman. His performance altogether was, however, respectable both in acting and singing. The Opera, in general, went off with spirit, and was much applauded.—The afterpiece was Love among the Roses, and in consequence of the indisposition of Mr. WRENCH, his part was as signed to a Mr. DOUGLAS, who bustled through it with tolerable success. ROYAL COBOURG THEATRE.—This Theatre , has been very attractive from the commence ment of the season. A piece entitled Ida and Carelia or The Amazon Sisters, has been a fa vourite with the public. The part of Ida was last night supported by Mrs. BAR RYMOR E, and that of Carelia also by Miss BLAKE, who was so successful in her performance of Macheath at the Haymarket Theatre. Her voice is sweet, power ful, and extensive. She executed two songs, composed by her Musical Preceptor, NATHAN, which are admirably adapted to her fine contralto voice, with great ability. The Theatre last night was well attended. Mrs. GLOSSOP, formerly Miss FEAUON, lately returned to this country. She was styled abroad the ENGLISH CATALANI. Both of the Winter Theatres, it seems, have made overtures to her, but she has declined them, being obliged to fulfil her engagement at Naples. THE ARMY. A Return of the Paymasters, or Officers acting as Paymas ters, who have become defaulters in their accounts with the War Office, since the Ist of January, 1810, has been printed in pur suance of an order of the House of Commons. The number amounts to seventy-one, which, with the date of the default, amount of deficiency, amount of the balance recovered, amount now due to the public, and a statement of the measures taken to recover the same, occupies eight pages folio. The 13th Regiment is arrived in Edinburgh, where they are to remain during his Majesty's visit. - upwards of 500 men belonging to the Invalid Establishment at Port Pitt, Chatham, marched on Monday for Chelsea, to be discharged on pensions. LIVERPOOL, JULY 31.—The Ist battalion of the Grenadier Guards arrived here this day from London to embark for Dub lin. The weather has been very unsettled here since the 15th inst. We have had some of the heaviest rain ever experiencel at this season of the year, and to-day we had a most violent shower of hail. MERCANTILE SHIPPING. DEAL, Aua. 2.—Wind N.W.—Arrived last night and pis morning the James, Postlethwaite, from Jamaica; Jean, Cum ming, Quebec ; Roslyn Castle, Hepburn, Jamaica : Diadem, Edman, Miramichi. The wind this morning shifted to north ward, and the whole of the outward-bound merchantmen, &e. immediately got under weigh, and proceeded down channel for their different destinations. Came down from the River and remain the Ann and Amelia, Short, for Calcutta. FALMOUTH, AUG. I.—Wind W.S.W.—Arrived the Henry, Sisters, Miramichi. P O A TSMOU TH, AUG. 2.—Wind N.W.—Arrivel the Mary, Richardson, from the Downs for Maraycabo. Sailed his Majesty's ship Active for Chatham. CHARLES SHERIDAN, Eso.—The and particularly the WyKAmtsTs, atrdously %sait for the appearance of a work from the pen of this Gentleman, on the important subject of the REVOLUTION of the GREEKS, a subject deeply interesting to all mankind. The work issunder stood to be his first literary essay. It is 1-ardly necessary to add, that he is the only surviving sou of that distinguished character, the late RICHARD BRINSLEY SHERIDAN, the ornament of the LITER ATURE and of the SENATE of this country. The Gentleman from whom the approaching work is =expected, is well known to possess hereditary talents of a very splendid description, and as he has resolutely applied them to study and reflec tion, and is animated by that love of Freedom which is the true nature of the British character, we are persuaded that the work in question will do honour to its author, and, if possible, give an increased interest to the glorious cause to which he has so meritoriously devoted his attention. Yesterday morning, soon after eight o'clock, the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER, attended. by Lady ISABELLA THYNNE and Capt. FOSTER, left town for Leamington. It is currently reported that an action of Grim. Con. is in a state of forwardness, the result of which may change the future possessor of an. ancient Earldom. AFFAIR. OF HONOLTR.—It is reported that a meeting took place on Thursday between two Noble Earls. The result is not known. M. ZEA, it is said, has received dispatches from the Portuguese Minister resident in Lon don, announcing the recognition of the inde pendence of the Columbian Republic by Portugal. On the recent visit of the Duke of Gloucester to the Continent, the postillion who drove one of the Royal carriages had the misfortune to dislocate his foot by the falling of nis horse on the road fro Ti Antwerp to Spa. The Duke, on his return to Brussels, sent an Aid-de-Camp, to inquire after the postillion. The surgeon having declared that the man would not be able to mount his horse for six weeks, the Aid-de-Camp, by the Duke's order, not only paid the surgeon for his attend ance, but gave to the postillion the sum of 200 franks, and promised him S francs a day for two months. This trait of generosity and humanity cannot be th generally known.—(Brussels Paper.) ior that use. rte' no r ' P to t' g 4 'Of ° t he 8 11 ;lectP
