bro~Ce out here soon after last post, I am happy
to add that tranquillity has prevailed lot some
dap', rind we have hopes of its continuance. Under
.existing. circumstances, and in consequence of the
I. report of some of the Greek Islands being in a
state of revolt, I have suggested to his Excellency
I our Ambassador ,the advantage and necessity of
some protection for our trade through the Archi-
pelago, which he has promised to take into imme-
diate consideration. • • •

We know n 9 vote of public money that has
given more general satisfactio►t than that in
favour of his Royal Highness the Duke of
CLARIOICE. The original vote mid the arrears
stand on the same foundation, and cannot be
severed without involving the House in the most
direct inconsistency. Any objection to the grant
of the arrears betrays • spirit of opposition and
not of economy. No man can plead economy
as a motive for punishing his Royal Highness,
because he was not too ready to take the public
money, in a case too where the delay has been at-
tended with au actual loss to his Royal Highness
of the i►►terest upon • sum of 6,0001. a year for
three years, and consequently a gain to the public
to that amount.

The Gazette of List night contains the Procla-
mation, of which we gave a copy yestercloy, fixing
the Coronation for the 19th of July.

Places in prirate houses in the neighbourhood of
Palace-yard, commanding a view of the hoe of the
procession of the coronation, are now sought after
with extraorditiery avidity. Various priers are de-
manded from ten to forty guineas per seat. These
seats will be generally on scaffolding erected in front
of the houses, the safsty and sufficiency of which
will be inspected by the Board of Works. The
proprietor of one house in Great Grorge-street ex-
pects to clear 7,0001. The landlord, in most
cases, is entitled to divide the profits equally with
the tenant.

Yesterday the LORD CH•NEELLOR had an
audieuce of his —MAJESTY.

His Excellency Don Luis ONts, Minister
from Spain to this Court, arrived in Loudon on
Si-
utrday evening.
Advice. from Chili, of the 48th Februa►y, have
been received. The papers a►e chiefly filled with
the official detail of the operations of SAN MARTIN
itt Peru, which convey a high idea not only of the
military tactics of that General, but of his skill in
the more difficult art of negociation. His repre-
sentations appear to have induced the secession from
the cause of Spain of all the principal ports on the
Pacific, together with many of the towns sod dis-
tricts of the intetior ; thus drawing a cordon of in-
surrection on the land side of Lima, while the har-
bour of Callao is blockaded by Lord COCHRANE.
As SAN MARTIN relies very confidently on a strong
party even within the walls of the capital, his object
is understood to be, not to make an attack to which
his force is inadequate, but to wait patiently till the
partisans of independence gain the ascendancy. Ilia
system of forbearance has led him also, in his ad-
vance on Limit, to hazard engagements as little as
possible ; but whenever compelled to fight, his
troops have generally been successful. The late
Viceroy, PEZUELA, appears to have made several
attempts at negociatiou; but SAN MARTIN tefustd
to listen to ally of them.
The English vessels captured by Lord Coot.
RANE, on the ground that they had Spanish propel ty
on board, have all arrived at Valparaiso for adjudi-
cation. The Cuptein of the Edioa►d Ellice. in a
letter to his owners from that port, inculpates with
much severity the condor t of Lord COCHRANE.
who, he contetels, used the most unfair means to
prevent his communication with the Captain of the
British frigate Andromache, then et Cellar+, to ob-
tain interference on his behalf. He considers his
Lordship's intent iostio have been to detain hint with
the Lord Swjlield and the Indian, till Limit should
surrender, fur adjudication there. The instant the
Commander of the Andromache heard of the cir-
cumstance, however, he insisted on their being sent
to Valparaiso. It is believed that the cargoes will
he condemned, but that the vessels will be released.
Two French ships of war, the Colosse, 74, and the
Galatea frigate, arrived eff Lima the beginning of
February, and proceeded • few data alter to the
port of Huambo.
The borough of Petersfield, which, by the de-
cision a few days sgo of the second Committee of
the house of Common., is now declared to be
free and open, and the right of voting to be in
erery f►eeholdel, without any restriction, alter
having been closed fur a century, forme a striking
proof what may he done by perseverance. Sonic
old charters, found a few years ago, brought to
light the rights of the Petersfield people, which
they had so long been deprived of.
