We learn by letters from Colombia, received
at New York, that the Congress of that Re-
public adjourned on the 7th July, after having
ratified the Loan contracted in England by Mr.
Zea, and authorised a negociation fora new Loan
of 30 millions of dollars. The letters state that
the Senate refused to confirm the nomination of
Mr. Revenga as Minister to England, and at
present acting there as the agent of the Govern-
ment.

Jamaica Papers, to the 10th September, were received this

caibo. The officers were billeted on the inhabitants, and a
sum was about to be raised for their relief by contribution.

Without entering into the merits of the trial
in the Court of King's Bench yesterday upon the
subject of the Libel on 1114 MAJESTY, of which
we have given a copious account this day, we can-
not but pay due respect to the great abilities
displayed by Mr. Dr MAN and Mr. BROUGHAM
on the defence. Mr. BROUGHAM, in particular,
is entitled to high commendation for leis explicit
and solemn declaration, that after the most
grave and minute inquiry, there was no founda-
tion for supposing that the malady in question
had ever affected His MAJESTY or any of the ex-
isting Royal Family. Whatever therefore may
be the opinions of any parties us to the political
sentiments of either of these Leamcd Advo-
cates, all men must ftd:rtirs. their talents, zeal,
firmness an,d eloquence, and rejoice that the glo-
rious and unrivalled freedom of the British Con-
stitution gives such latitude to THE BAr, and
such scope for the vindication of those who may
be subject to the visitation of THE LAW.

TREATMENT or SLAVES IN DEMERARA.—AS a
proof of the falsehood of the statements so indn4-
triously circulated over this country, that the
Negroes on West India estates. particularly those
the proprietors of whom are absent in this coun-
try, are are inhumanly treated, we annex from
different letters before us, the followinc summary
of the meritorious conduct of the Slaves on the
Brothers and Woodlands plantations, the pro-
perty of JAMES Ii'INKoY, Esq. of this City,
during the late revolt in Demerara. The letters
are from Mr. BUCHANAN, and Mr.RAINY of that
Colony, and also from the managers of these
estates :--

" In the absence of the Managers. who hua teen called away
to join the Militia, as soon as Martial Law was proclaimed, the
Slaves on these plantations Irma themselves with such wea-
pons as they could find ; and, when the rebels approached with
flaming torches to set fire to the buildings, most courageously
defended their master's property, resisted and repelled the furl.
ous attempts of the assailants, and in which contest some of
them, particularly the Chief Drivers, who headed the gangs,
were severely hurt. After
shaving beat off' the insurgents, and
preserved not only their master's property but their own froth
destruction, they continued to carry on the labours of the plan.
tations the same as if the white people had been living among
them, Such conduct will, we have no doubt, be rewarded by
their generous proprietor, and receive the thanks of tI. Colony,
as an inducement and encouragement to others to follow their
example, should any such melancholy occurrence render their
exertions again necestary.”--((: Courier, Oct. 28.)iargore
