Southern Repuldics mint of necessity be uni-
venally recognised, and it would ill become
the Government of the most commercial notion
in the world to be the last in estsblnhing com-
mercial relations with countries so highly en-
dowed by nature and qualified by circum-
stances to promote our interests, and in the pro-
gm., of whose independence the inhabitants of
Great Br►tain evinced an early and generous con-
cern. The present is evidently but • preparatory
step towards the more formal recognition of South
American independence. To effect even this pre-
liminary step our Government must acknowledge

the seetrel flags of the respective Sete•. rnu•t re-
cognise the official mesh; that authenticate ships
pipers. and must receive Consuls in our ports ac-
cirdited hewn the I States. as the customary
gtuudians of their mercantile rights.

Paris Papers up to Saturday last have arrived ut
our afire. hut although they exhibit their usual

qu.staily of reports and speculations relative to the

affairs of Turkey, they offer no intelligence of an
authentic character. The line of conduct pursued
48
hr the Pura Papers of late, their facility in lend-
inc themselves to the schemes of neck-jobbers, and
their imprudence, to use no harsher phrase, in
striving by fabricated statements to anticipate
events which they perhaps thought probable, have
contributed very much to viol them in public esti-
mation. They ■re now read in this country with
distrust; their assertions are received like the evi-
dence of a hooted nitwit', and are frlt to be of
little value, etcept where they are confirmed by
the testimony of others. The Journal de Paris
reports, on the alleged authority of tiros received
at Marseilles, r.• That an insurrection has taken
place in the lonian Islands, the inhabitants of
which have taken up arms against the English, and
declared their independence !" Such a report may,
by possibility, have some foundation, but we can-
not forget that the Paris Papers have been telling
us of a similar insurrection for • considerable
length of time. There is more of probability in
the statemeut mentioned by one of them, that
the Court of Prussia has resolved to unite with
those of Russia and Austria in the league that has
bent formed by the two latter, for regulating the
:affairs of the East.

Charleston Papers to the 19th March, and Bal-
timore to the 46th, have been received, from which
the following are extracts :
(Frogs the Charlene,* Paper, 1911, "torch.]
By the icbooner Deepness, Nietl, arrived at this port in
14 days from H la, we learn that the dutlea on all
kinds of piorisions have been reduced there nearly 50 pet
rent. except Boor, w►ich was expected to be reduced 30 per
cent. The markets were doll. We anticipate the greatest
benefit from this port being made a illepZl fur metehandim
of every descriptive, as its situation and its superior harbour
i■ ■ll seasons, and the tranquillity, in a political point of
view, which it continues to enjoy, ainirkt norms which agi-
tate the surrounding Colonies, give it a derided preference
over every other. Already the everage yea•ly crops of sugar
vetoed 300,000 boars, nod of coffee thirty millions of
pounds; cotton is also raised, but not abundantly ; ■nd the
vbaceo of this island may 'mount to twelve or fifteen mil.
lions. The crops of coffee Ibis season are short, not amount-
iug to eighteen million,. We cousider that one half has al-
ready been exported. Eachange on London, by which all
others begin to be regulated, is 'from 14 to 15 per evil..
(Prom the Baltimore Taper.]

Accounts from Bermuda state that the market• were not
as oi-unfailing as they had been ; the greit influx of Ameri-
can produce bad reduced the article of fluor to six Jull•rs.a
barrel. Vessels arriving at Bermuda, especially at St.
George's, were much annoyetl by • British 18. gun brig,
called ,be Argos, which was stationed •t t. George, and
would not suffer a vessel to enter without detaining sad
overhauling her sod her cargo, and putting • prize crew ou

schooner, bound to Porto Rico. Pillot had thirteen men
wounded; the Spaniards had forty killed and wounded.
It is repou tvd she brought about forty thousand dollars to

We reirrt to state that hiaflonour the Governor was taken
suddenly and alarmingly ill on Monday afternoon, and it it
with equal pleasure we bare to announce that he is to a fair
ws y of recovery.

Private letters from Dublin state, that the inha-
bitants of that city are greatly surprised at the cold
economy of the Castle. They cannot recognise even
a ray of the splendour and magiii6cence that once
distinguished the Governor of India. The spirit of
outrage continues to subside, but the dread of fa-
mine increases, and no efficient measures appear in
progress to allay it.

DRURY-LANK THEATRE.

Last night the tragedy of Rosneo and Juliet was
performed st this theatre, in which a fair debutante
appeared in the character of Juliet, and was emi-
nently successful. This young lady is the daughter
of Mrs. GLossa, so long a di•tingoi.hed public
favourite. Miss GLOV►R's spirriarstiCe is extremely
interesting ; her features small Out expressive; and
her perm). nat above the middle size, formed with
the moat perfect symmetry. On first coming for-
ward she was most warmly greeted. and evidently
laboured under considerable agitation. (Living re-
covered from her embarrassment, her talents began
to chew themselves, and in ►he scene in the bal-
cony she gave ample earnest of those fine powers
which she afterwards so successfully displayed.
Her extreme youth, and want of familiarity with
the siege, left us unprepared tor that high degree
of cultivation which, even under the disadvantages
of a first appearance, was abundantly evident. Her
action is graceful and dignified, her accent• the
sweetest imaginable, her enunciation remarkably
distinct, and her entire detnesiiintr elegant. Our
limits preveet us at present from entering into fur-
ther pariieulars, but we cannot doubt that MOE
GLOVER must become a reigning favourite, and fill
up the blank so long vacant in the female depart,
merit of the higher walks of tragedy.

The KING, we reg►et to learn, experienced on
Snuday au affect of the gout in Ins hand ;it is,
howe►er, considered it slight attack. It is not true,
es stated in some of the pape.s, that his MAJMY
retired prematurely &ow the late drawing room, in
consequence of indisposition. Ili. MAJZSTy re-
mained in the room until the last moment necessary
for his presence.

Letters have been received from Major Detitisst,
who commands the expedition into the interior of
Africa, dated Irons Tripoli in the West, whew they
arrived in November last. A salute wee fired from
the batteries on their landing, cud the best under-
standing prevails between the Bashaw and Colonel
WARRINGTON, the British Consul, end the treivel-
ler.; and his Highness has expressed his readiness
to 'third them all the assistance and protection in
his power, iie order to convince the king of ENG..
LAND of his sincerity.

The vacancy in the Representation for the 80.
rough of Shaftesbury, occasioned by the voyage of
A. MOORE, Esq. the Barrister, to America, will be
filled by the Hon. ROBERT Gacitwroft, one or the
sons of Esrl Gaosv VIOL This young Gentleman
attained the age of 21 only onylitirsday, and will
come in, as it is understood, without opposition.
1 he els etion takes place this day.
On IVedneaday last, a beautiful ship was hunched
at Blarkwall, and named Sir Edourd Pligeto in
honour of that illwt•ions fimilv. She went off in
a majestic style, amidst the arcismistion of the nu-
merous spectators. We understand she is fittest
in a superior manner, solely as a passenger ship be-
tween the Coast and the Presidencies of Madras and
Calcutta, and is under the command of an old and
experienced Officer of the Royal Navy.

We extract the following from • Provincial
Paper :--
" IW-invert—A footman and housemaid, who can neither
write our read writing. The advertiser is induced to make
this appliestiu,i through • uewspap-r, as he has nut been
able to meet with sorb, with such qualifications; and baring
suffered much inconvenient., (rum his letters notes, sad
papers being inverted by his menials, afterwards becoming
the conversation of the servatitAball, sod, in coarse, the
whole village. None seed apply that has ever hero at a
writing-sehool."

Mr. Huskissom's hint has had a good effect
upon this brewer►. "We are glad to find," says
the York Herold, ,1 that several of the brewers in
this city have lowered the price or isle, 10 as to calla-
ble the publicans to retail good beverage at 4d. per
quart ; and we trust it will soon become general."
We perceive several other indices to the sense effect
in the provincial paper..
The swallow, the eightingale, and the cuckoo,
have visited 'pi earlier this spring than usual ; we
hope they will prove the harbingers of a forward
and favourable season...—(Bath Gazette.)

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
_____......_
COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Warnaimrrea,
Momway, APRIL 29.

PUBLICANS' LICENSES.

?RR LINO v. COLLINS AND OTHERS.

The Sottorow:•GeNit•st. moved for a rule to
shew cause why a new trial should not be had in
this ease. This was an indictment preferred against
Mr. Collins, Sir N. Conant, and two other Defend-
ants, Magistrates for the county of Middlevex. for
having maliciously end corruptly, from motives of
pritheie partiality to the house of Meals. Reid, and
Co., refused to grant a license to one Meek, it pub-
lican. The cause was tried before the Lord Chief
Justice at' Westminster, and the Jury found a ver-
dict of guilty on the 4th count of the indictment.
The Learned Counsel said he moved this on the
part of Mr. Collins, and regretted extremely, from
respect to the family of the late Sir N. Conant (who
had died wince the trial), that he could not include
Inin in his appli:ation ; with regard to the other De-
fendantr, he admitted the law was against him.
The ground on which he now applied to the Court
was this—the whole of the evidence at the trial went
to whew that the corrupt motive was partiality to the
"awe of 51,0., Reid, and Co. and the Jury, by
finding a verdict of guilty on the forarth couut (in
which the names .of Messrs. Melia, Reid, and Co.
were not mentioned), had, in fact, negatived the
whole of the charge.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said, that according
to his recollection lie had left it to the Jory to
ray whether they were satisfied on the evidence that
the partiality to the house of Meux, Reid, and Co.
had been proved, and he au ratherstorprieed after-
wards when the verdict was returned on the fourth
could only. It might therefore be !Koper that the
report should be before the Court.—Rule to shew
cause granted.
