-EXTRACT ()EA LETTER DATED SINGAPORE, APRIL 9.
" Having an opportunity for Europe by a French brig
,bound to BordeauA, I cannot let it esc..pe without communi-
cating to you the important news which has just reached us,
being no less than a report of the complete subjugation of the
Birnian Empire by the British forces, and the capture of its
golden-footed monarch and his capital, Ummerapoora. The
report is brought by the British ship Caroline, Captain .John-
son, in 17 days from Bangkok, the--capital and chief sea-port
of the kingdom of Siam, in dispatches from the Siamese Go;
.yernment to the Resident of this settlement, which he was
particularly anxious to forward Bengal immediately on re-
ceipt, but at present there is no opportunity. I have had all
the particulars which were known there from Captain Johm-
son's.own mouth, whose veracity is undoubted. He states the
repett to have reached Bangkok only the day before he sailed,
. iriz. on the 20th or 21st of March, and the Portuguese Consul,
who resides there, and is much in the confidence of the people
connected with the Court, assured him that it might be relied
OP as a fact. The British army or the advanced guard of it,
were said to be only three day s' journey, or not above 100
miles, distant from Bangkok at the time this ship left, and news
was arriving from it almost every other day. There was some
.story about a massacre having taken place in one of the most
contiderable of the Birman towns, which had submitted to our
&Ms. It is said that the Commander of the forces having re-
. ceived the submission of „the inhabitants and the Government
authorities, appointed such of them as were deemed trust-
• worthy to certain offices in the state, and left what was deemed
a sufficient detachment
.in the place for keeping all quiet.
However, the main body of the army, it is said, were scarcely
out of sight on its advance, ere the treacherous Birrnans rose
upon the soldiers, and, it is said, put them all hors de combat.
The news of this catastrophe reaching the Commander, he re-
turned instantly with the main body, and put every soul of
that town's people to the sword : which sigrd vengeance in-
. fused such a panic into the rest of the nation,, titat wherever he
• proceeded after that, he met with nothing but submission ;
and at-the time the report came away, the whole empire was
•• sifted to haVe submitted to our authority, and to be in the oc-
oupation of our troops. If the report be true, the official
iitewuup of it must have reached Calcutta ere this, and we may
.now dailybe looking for it from thence."

' A Vienna Paper states, that it is the intention
of Prince M ETTERNICII to dispose of his fine estate
at Johannisberg, by way of Lottery, next De-
cember. This estate was presented to the Prince
by the Congress of Vienna.

TO MARTIN ARCHER SHEE, ESQ. R. A.
On rc-perusing his Poem, entitled " ELEMENTS OF AUT."
By JOHN TAYLOR., ESQ.
To thee, my friend, was potent Nature kind—
She gave creative Genius, strength of mind :
Approving her design, the tuneful Train
Thy pencil guided, and inspir'd thy strain :
Taught thee to :thew what SCULPTURE was of yore,
• Which to sublitnest heights of Art could soar ;
Arpr.r.o bring in lofty verse to•view,
Watching the shaft when he the Python slew;
The VENUS bending with a modest charm,
As if the passing Zephyr rais'd alarm ;
• The vast A LcinEs too, with toil opprest,
Yeilding his mighty form to balmy rest;
The •WItITHING SONS and AGONIZING SIRE,
Struggling amid the SERPENTS' dreadful ire
All, all, thy Muse has tonch'd, such force displays
As marks a mind warm with congenial rays,
While from thy precepts deep instruction flows,
And GENIUS through the whole intensely glows.
Nor this alone thy praise, for we revere
Thy moral worth in life's domestic sphere :
There, as the Husband; Parent, and the Friend,
In thee their various merits nobly blend,
And still an added dignity we find
In the pure impulse of thy patriot mind,}
Expanding in its zeal for all mankind.

• • The last time when the author of the foregoing lines
•
had• the pleasure of seeing the late Mr. SHERIDAN, the former
was going to pass an evening with the ingenious Artist, and,
Overtaking Mr. S. on his-way, pressed him to join the party.
" Tell him," said 114. r. S. that " I am unluckily engaged, and
add, that I esteem him as a Friend, I honour him as a Poet,
and I love him as a Countryman."

[NEW TIMES.]

A single and uncorroborated letter reached
town yesterday, conveying intelligence, which, if
true; is of very high importance ; but before we
give it entire credit we shall wish to see it con-
:Armed from some other sources. The letter
which we give in another column announces the
,entire submission of the Burmese Empire to the
, Uritish arms. We, for our part, have never
doubted but that the final result of the war must
'be to us a complete success. That such a result
.should be brought about so suddenly is certainly
~what we did not expect, and, are not quite pre.
.pared
.to believe. The narrative, too, is at once
vague and surprising. No dates of time or• place
;Are assigned to any part of the British operations,
. but it is said the British Commander having occu.
~pied a Burman town, placed a garrison there;
whilst he himself moved forward. The Burmese
,Availed themselves of his absence to murder the
...garrison, whereupon the general returned and Out
411 the inhabitants to the sword ! We hope that
,no such sanguinary scenei have really taken place;
but the narrative goes on to ascribe to the mas.
.sacre the most beneficial effects, since it is said to
have struck terror into the whole country, and
enftbled our troops to march without further
. opposition to Ameerapoora, the Burman capital.
These events are certainly not beyond the tar:inds
of possibility ; but .we ,cannot say that they'ap.
pear to us to possess a high degree of probability.

to which the proprietor IS entitled in and throughout the other
parts of the tenement orBOSSEAN, belonging to the other
freeholders. The value of this tenement it is impossible cot...
reedy to estimate, as.the greater part contains tin lodes, anti
veins of the richest qUality—indeed, so rich has the tin been,
that, to divide it equally between the Miners, it has beenfound
necessary to do so by weights and scales, and from this cir-
cumstance the Golden Tenement took its name. Setts,• or
grants, for working these lodes, are now applied for by• James
liaise, Esq. and Mr. Millets Thomas ; but the owner, having
determined on selling the land, has refused to grant.
For viewing the Premises apply to Capt. Greenfell, of Saint
Just, and the respective tenants; and, for further particulars,

THE ARMY.

The Coldstream Guards were inspected in Brigade yesterday
in Hyde Park, by their Colonel, his Royal Highness the Duke
of Cambridge, attended by his Staff. The Brigade received his
Royal Highness with a general salute. The Brigade after-
wards wheeled back from the line into open column, and
marched past in a slow and quick time, and at quarter distance.
Major-General Woodford, who gave the word of command,
then manoeuvred the Brigade, and put the battalions through a
variety of evolutions and movements, which they executed with
celerity and precision. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of
Cambridge and suite appeared on the ground and seemed highly
gratified by this imposing spectacle. There was a great assem-
blage of beauty and fashion, and several General and other
Officers, on the ground. The Brigade fired 20 rounds of blank
cartridge.
Yesterday the Ist Regiment of Life Guards, under the com-
mand of the Earl of Uxbridge, left their barracks at Knights-
bridge, and proceeded to Wormwood Scrubs, where they had
their last grand field-day, previous to the annual review, which
is shortly to take place ; the evolutions and charges of this tine
I body of men, particularly the charge in line, were the admira-
tion of all the military men on the ground- the latter for its
velocity and precision. The finencsi of the day attracted-a nu-
merous assemblage. The regiment returned to their barracks
at half-past one o'clock, headed by their splendid band, who.
played some fine airs during their march.

MESSRS. GREEN'S ACCOUNT OF THEIR VOYAGE.

" At half-past five o'clock the balloon left the earth, amidst
the cheers of thousands of spectators—and as we passed over
the metropolis, we heard the shouts of the inhabitants in the
different streets. To give the public a more distinct view of the
machine, as it moved with grandeur and sublimity through the
atmosphere, we determined not to attain too great an altitude.
Our course was west by south south west, and on crossing the
River Thames, we passed directly between Waterloo and
Blackfriars Bridges. The River Thames, with its serpen-
tine form, appeared to the naked' eye not larger than a Loa
constrictor. When we were at our utmost altitude, st.
did not appear to be larger than a dog-kennel, and the monu-
ment not bigger than a walking-stick ! When at a distance of
about 4,000 feet from the earth, we liberated a pigeon. .It has
been stated, that in consequence of the extreme rarity of the
air at such an elevation, a pigeon cannot use its wings ;
but we found that the moment the pigeon left the car, it flew
with ease and rapidity in a zigzag direction towards. the earth,
till we lost sight of it. The thermometer varied from 69 to
75 ; the barometer, on leaving the earth, stood at 30 inches
two-tenths, and when_at our highest elevation, it stood at 21
five-tenths, giving an altitude of about a mile and three-quar-
ters. We passed through slight currents of air, and at times
the earth was completely obscured from our view by detached
bodies of vapour. We did not pass through a single cloud, and
our voyage was very pleasant. Having been in the atmosphere
about an hour and three quarters, we determined on making
our descent, the country appearing open and convenient for
such purpose. The first sound we beard on descending was the
barking of a dog ; the barometer then stood at 26 inches,,which
shewed that we were about three quarters of a mile from the
surface of the earth. Having reached the earth without any
concussion, and finding the spot on which we landed was a
ploughed field, and unfavourable for emptying and packing up
the machine, we agreed that one of us (Mr. G. Green) should
alight ; he did so, and Mr. Charles Green re-ascended, and
pr needed onwards to a grass field about a quarter of a mile
distant, on the estate of Lady Glynn, in the parish of Ewell, a
distance of nearly two miles from Epsom, where a safe descent
was effected, with the assistance of a number of country peonle.
Having packed up the balloon, we started in a chaise and four
for London, and arrived at the Eagle Tavern about _eleven
o'clock the same night. To the directors, and engineers of the,
Independent Gas Company we feel ourselves particularly
obliged, for their activity and good management. ,

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 5, 1525

An article in the Journal des DAats of Friday
last, reviewing the new commercial system of kbis
country, induces us to recur to the subject. It
says, " The system of universal commercial li-
berty, the object of the British Government
appears to want a reciprocity secured by treaty.
However the English Ministry have frankly de-
clared, that they do not depend on an apparent
reciprocity, but on the natural and moral conse-
quences their system ought to produce on the
commerce of Continental Nations." It will
be recollected, that in observing on this sub-
ject in our Paper of the 28th March, the
absence of this reciprocity formed our strongest
objection to the measure. WP never in the
least doubted the truth of the principles that
I rest upon the basis of Freedom of Commerce ;
Ibut we felt that after so long a continuance of a

restrictive system, it was almost too much to ex-
pect that a recurrence to more liberal doctrines
would of itself draw with it all those conse-
quences which might naturally have been ex-
pected, if the principle had been applied to trade
before any restrictions had existed. Not that the
principle was the less valunble, but because it
would require time to bring about the ne-
cessary change in men's minls, and because
it is clear that where the channels of commerce

DISTRESSING CASE.— Eliza flarvey; an iota
resting, well-dressed girl, only 17 years of-`age,
was brought to Bow-street Office this day,
from Covent-Garden watch-house, charged by
Fitzgerald, a watchman in- Brydges-street, Co-
vent-garden, with being a receiver of stolen prp.:
perty. It appeared from the watchman's state-
ment, that gangs of boys were in the habit of as.-
sembling near the Theatres at night, just prior
to their closing, and on the public leaving the
Theatres they would have their pockets picked
of their property, which was frequently handed• .
to girls of the prisoner's description. Last night
witness saw a boy, a well.known pickpocket,
steal a handkerchief, on which be handed it to
the prisoner and ran away. Ile seized the pri-
soner, and found the property in her possession.
In answer to questions put by Mr. BALLS, she
said she had been on the town twelve months,
unknown to her father. Her mother was dead.
She did not deny the charge.—Mr. lIALLs re-
gretted to see so young a creature in so disgrace..
ful a situation, and that it was his duty to commit
her for trial.

[BRITISH PRESS.]

The state of Ireland, we are rejoiced to learn,
presents from day to day a nearer prospect of that
political union and stability which can alone. en-
sure its prosperity, and give energy and effect
to its Government. The system of policy pur-
sued by the Marquis Wellesley elinces its wis-
dom in its practical result. A memorial has been
transmitted from the Magistrates of Cork, pray-
ing the removal of the Insurrection Act from the
whole county, with the exception of three barn-
hies : there is little doubt but that the prayer of
this memorial will be complied with, as all ac-
counts from that quarter of the country agree in
representing it as tranquil and well-disposed. The
county of Tipperary,we have reason to expect, will
likewise soon cease to be subject to the regula-
tions of this Act; when this shall have taken place,
the whole of Ireland will, then be relieved from
its operation,-there being no other districts to the
security of which it has for some Mate past
been held essential: All the views of the Noble
Marquis, as to the measures which the real wel-
fare of Ireland required, will then have com-
pletely verified. if he recommended those mea-
sures—as he did—with earnestness, and if Par-
liament adopted them with energy, it was from
a firm conviction that they would contribute, not
merely to the repose, but to the rank, respect,
and importance of the Sister Kingdom ; and that,
coupled with others that were in contemplation,
they would lead—as they no doubt will—to that
day of light and glory, which will be the com-,
mencement of a new era to Ireland ; which, by
healing those divisions that have so long strove
against her .peace, will lead to that union of
social interests and constitutional rights, which
will put the prosperity of both kingdoms on one
common basis, and bind them together in one
common interesttheir interest as British sub-
jects. •

[BRITISH PRESS.]

The commercial treaty with Colombia is• the
consummation .of a great work, giving politica
existence, and 'securing freedom and independence-
to•that Republic, and opening new arid rich
channelS of enterprise to our own countrymen.
The,question of South American independenCefs
now de*Cided, not only in fact, but in form. Spain.
is too feeble, to • make any attempt against her
revolted -colonies, and England has made known
her determination that no other Power shall.in-
terfere in the struggle. The course followed by
the English Government with relation tolthis con-
test, is worthy of being recalled to notice. The po.-
sition of England at the general peace of 1815-was,
as regarded this question, one of great difficulty.
By treaty. Fltelland was bound to take !no part
iu favour of the revolted colonies. On the one
hand, the.ri.fore-, his Majesty's Ministers had to
preserve the public faith ; on the other, to foster
and protect the commercial interests that had
grown out of tie intercourse with these prOvinces.
The Foreign- !-•Enlistment Bill, a measure so
strongly opposed,ritjhe period of its enactment,
was the fruit of their duty towards the King
of Spain: The Act of Navigation, by which
the flag of the revolted colonies was admitted into
the British Ports as. that of a power de facto
independent, was the fruit of their duty to-
wards the commerce of the country. Repeat-
ed endeavours were made to urge Spain to pre-
cede England in the recognition of the independ-
ence of the new American States, and it was ex-
pressly declared, that if Spain could obtain anv
terms more favourable than other powers, England
would be content to fall behind her; and rank
with the other powers in such privileges as they
might he able to Obtain. Spain was obstinate.
Whether constitutional or despotic, she was re-
solved, if possible, to reduce her colonies to un-
conditional submissiOn. Failing in these at-
tempts to persuade the mother 'country, for her
own sake, to be reasonable, the English Govern-
ment at last sent out Commissioners to report to
them the actual condition of the.new States, and
9n the representations of these Commissioners,
it Was decided to recognise the independence of
Mexico, Colombia, and Buenos Ayres, the three
which had made the most ptogress in the firm es-
tablishment of their respective Goverments.--
Never was there a negotiation full of more dif-
ficulties. Never were difficulties more admira-
bly surmounted.
