reject the loan itself : We say reject, because you disavow
the powers of M. Zea, and render even a partial acknowledg-
ment of the loan, subject to that portion of the accounts which
you may appprove of. If M. Zea had authority to contract a loan
and purloined a large portion of the proceeds, if, as you say,
your Government has never received a tenth of the sums raised
by this Loan, to whom is the fault to be imputed ? We say to
your own agent. If you are prepared to prove' that your
agent was not authorized, why not put the British public
in possession of the fact ? That there is something hidden upon
your part, and which you are unwilling to acknowledge, is quite
evident. We repeat that you are bound to speak out without
preference or affection, and not to subject the Public to the loss
and anxiety which must arise if their Bonds are subject in
value to the accounts of the monies disposed of from that Loan.
We trust that this will produce a distinct declaration, either
that the Loan is a good one, or why it is not—by which candid
and honourable conduct you will not only prevent daily, nay
hourly, distress and ruin to thousands, but gain for yourself
that high esteem and honourable distinction with which your
important mission inspires us.

Shotld you take no notice of this, we shall feel impelled to
ask you a seri.es of questions upon the same subject, founded
upon: declarations used by yourself since you left Bogota, and
previous to your arrival in this country.

[FROlti A ConntsreNnuNT.J—The very belle-
volent and highly politic measure of making
the SLAVE TRADE Piracy, passed into a law by
the United States, and introduced and most ad-
mirably supported by Mr. CANNING, and the
friends of humanity and freedom in the House of
Commons, which no doubt will become one of the
glorious statutes of our Land of Liberty, was
first suggested by that upright and venerable
patriot, Major CARTWRIGHT, about 14 years ago,

hi his admirable Letters to Mr. CLARKSON, on
" African and English Freedom." This is a fact
that does honour, not only to Major CAuT-
witiouT, but also to the present Adminis-
tration, and to that eloquent supporter of
the measure, Mr. CANNING, who has employed
the same strong and unanswerable arguments to
carry the first reading of the Bill through the
House. Little as we esteem him who is now in
the vale of years and retired life, generations
unborn will hereafter bless the memory of a
CARTWRIGHT, who suggested, and a British Par-
liament, who enacted, a Law to render the
traffic in human blood an heinous offence against
the.rights of mankind, highly meriting the penal
retribittion of the foulest of crimes.

MELANCHOLY EYENT.—Teoterday two young
men were committed to the cage, at Lewisham,
Kent, and in the course of the night the cage
took fire ; but before relief could be obtained
they were, horrible to say, unfortunately burnt
to death. Their miserable remains were taken to
the Lamb Public-house, which is nearly opposite
to the cage, for the Coroner's Inquest.

The Loan MAYOR has appointed a Special
Court of Common Council for to-morrow (Wed-
nesday), for the purpose of taking into considera-
tionpropriety of petitioning Parliament
against the renewal of the Alien Act under any
modification.

Lord CARRINGTON accidentally slipped into a
rapid stream, near Wentlover, Bucks, on 'Wed-
nesday last, but was fortunately rescued by some
friends who accompanied him in his walk.

The daughter of a Baronet, whose infidelity to
her husband had caused her to be abandoned by
her family, attempted suicide on Wednesday, on
her father continuing to refuse her his protection.
Mr. GEORGE STACKPOOL, the litigant in a cause
that has occupied much attention in France, as
well as in Ireland, died at Paris on Thursday
evening, of an attack of the gout. He was
ninety years of age.
We understand that the long expected reversal
of the attainders of the Scottish Peers will take place early in
the ensuing month. It is understood that, with the exception
of ERSKINE, of Mar, the favoured parties will be summoned
to London to take the necessary oaths. The former (gentle-
man, it is believed, will be excused from attendance on the
score of ill health.—( Edinburgh Observer.)

Music Ar. ANECDOTE.—Some years ago a gen-
tleman at Windsor took the place of the Organist, with a view
to skew his superiority in execution. Among other pieces, he was
playing one of Dr. BLOW'S anthems, and just as he had finished
the verse part and began the full chorus, the organ ceased. On
this he called to DICK the bellows-blower, to know what was the
matter:—" the matter," says Dick, " I have played the an-
them below." " Aye," says the other, " but I hare not play-
ed it above." "No matter," quoth Dick, " you might have
made more haste then ; I know how many puffs go to one irf
Dr. Blow's anthsnu as well as you do ; I have not blowed the
organ so many years for nothing."—(Sornerset House Gazette.)
DESTRUCTIVE FlRE.—This morning, about
half-past four o'clock, a most destructive fire
broke out in the dwelling-house of Mr. T. DIG..
NUM, solicitor, of Cook's-court, Carey-street,
which soon communicated to those of Mr.
BLAKE and Mr.llAmtvrost, which suffered very
considerably. The fire originated in the back
parlour, but from what cause is not known. The
firemen were occupied during the morning in
playing the engines on the ruins. The destruc-
tion of property is very considerable.
