to have received the assent of the Chamber fur their
admission. Much clamour prevailed with respect
to the eligibility of some other Members, all of whom
however, took their seats, with the exe-ption of sl,
de St. Cricq, who being returiled for the Loner
Pyrenees, though actually a I)•.nuty ror the Sine
and Marne, it was tlecil.l, by a great majority, that
the former return wls void. The Chamber adjourm.d,
till Tuesday.

Accounts have been reecivtxl in town from Lima,
dated September the 10th. They state that Gen.
San Martin had landed about forty leagues distant,
at Pisco, with 4,800 men, who were convoyed
down by Lord Cochrane with the whole naval force
of Chili. On the 25th of October, the whole
coast of Peru was declared to be in a state of block-
ade. The troops of the Viceroy in the City amounted
to 8,500 ; but as the inhabitants of the Country
were decidedly in fivour of the Inv; tiers, the latter
would by progressive steps and prudent conduct im-
prove their advantages, and the Independents were
ultimately expected to obtain possession of Peru.--.
The intelligence from Spain of the King's accep-
tance of the Constitution had arrived, and it had
ken sworn to by the Inhabitants, and the Autho-
rities of the Peruvian Capital ; but this would not
prevent Lord Cochrane and General San Martin
from pursuing their objects with activity and vigour.
The Independent Chief Bolivar is censured for uc-
ceding to an nrmstice with Royalist General Morillo.
It however only applies to the Armies under these
two Commanders, and will not, it is hoped, produce
any ill effect with respect to the expedition destined
to give liberty to Peru, and wealth to the Invaders.

I its Majesty's ship Favourite, Capt. H. Robinson,
which has arrived at Portsmouth from the New-
foundland station, came last from Gibraltar and
Cadiz. She left Gibraltar on the !"29th ult. and Cadiss
on the I ttit iastunt. There was not a single ship
of war at either place. The Ifioy; Capt. Yeoman,
(which had been cruizing off Cape St. Vincent, to
ini;aln ad British vessels that the yellow fever was
pr.wai wig at Cadiz), sailed on the same day the
Favourite ail, to return to the Cork station.
Stock to the amount of 110,0001. was transferred
on Saturday to the Trustees of Queen Anne's
&nutty. A considerable scarcity of money stock
before existed, and was much increased by this ope-
ratitm. The brokers, who bad engaged to deliver
it, were compelled, we understand, to 'say up a
large quantity of Uranium, in order to assist in
creatiag the stock required. This want of an ade-
quate supply of stock for large purchases, is the
prevailing feature of the present period, and has
materially assisted to preserve the market at its uses-
sent elevation. The abundance of money amen
the Loudon capitalists, by which the s,:arcity es
stock is produced, forms .a singular contrast to the
complaints from almost every quarter of the king-
dom, the scarcity of money. This state of things is
supposed to arise—lst, from the reluctance of the
farmers, however pressed, to part with the Govern-
ment Stock, which the prudent part of them were
enabled to accumulate during high war prices of
agricultural produce; and 2dly, front an ignorance
of that mode of horrotsing money on the funds,
which is termed contiotethon, and by which the
mercantile bodies in Lc 'don, Liverpool, Bristol,
and other ports of the ,kirgdom, during a similar
distress for capital, could always command a tempo-
rary relief.
The Hon. and Rev. F. P Bouvcric, Rector of
Pewsey, Wil!s, with a liberality that distinguishes
his faintly, has, in consequence of the very depressed
state of agriculture, reduced his tithes I i per cent.
A silver coin of Titus was found in tlw rubbish
of an old house, which was lately pulled down in
Eastgate-street, CheAter. In digging to foundation
tier a new building, a pavenient was discovered at
about eight feet below the present level of the street.
This gives strength to the prevalerr. opinion that
the level of the city was originally that of the flour
of the cathedral, to which persons have now to
descend by several steps.
About eight o'clock on Saturday evening, a get:.
tlemanly looking matt, about twenty-seven years of
age, called at Monday's Coffee-house, in Covent-
Garden, and after having tea in the claw-room, he
contrived to steal a betutiful slyer tea caddie aid
silver bitson.
