PRESI3I"I'ERIAN3 OF IRELAND•

The Gazette of last night contains the follow-
ing Address, which has been transmitted to Mr.
Secretary PEEL, by his Excellency the LORD
LIEUTENANT Of Irelhnd, and presented by Mr.
PEEL to the KING; which Address his MAJESTY
was pleased to receive very graciously

" To THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.
" SIRE—We, the Ministers and Elders of the Presbyterian
Synod of Ireland, distinguished by the name Seceders, gladly
avail. ourselves of the occasion afforded by our Annual Meet-
ing, of approaching the Throne with the expression of our un-
diminished attachment and veneration.
" The efforts of your Majesty's truly paternal Government
to promote the unanimity and happiness of all classes of your
subjects, secure for your Majesty, from a grateful and admir-
ing nation, the noblest title which a Monarch can enjoy—that
of 4 the Father of his people.'
" Sire, the especial attention and care bestowed on this part
of the United Kingdom, of which we are subjects, demand our
best thanks, and happily accord with the sentiments expressed
on your Majesty's auspicious visit to our shores ; nor are the
general interests of mankind'overlooked in those of the whole,
or of particular parts, of your Majesty's empire. We still
witness with delight the wishes expressed, and the efforts made,
to secure.the tranquillity of Europe and the peace of the world.
That your Majesty will yet obtain the highest earthly reward
you can enjoy—that of seeing these wishes realized, and these
efforts successfulie cannot doubt, and for so desirable a eon.
summation we shall not cease to pray.
" In your ,Majpsty, Sire, we contemplate, with heartfelt joy,
the munificent Patron of Arts and Scienees, which dignify
and adorn mankind, and in the liberal encouragement you af-
ford to their cultivation, as well as for enlaring the boundaries
of discovery, do we ascribe, in no small degree, the high emi-
nence to which our country has been raised among the nations
of the world.

6' The facilities afforded by yoor Majesty's Government for
the diffusion of • pure and undefiled religion,' call for our
warmest gratitude, believing, as we do, that righteousness
exalteth a nation, and that sin is a reproach to any people.=
When.we consider the station which Britain now occupies, her
commercial influence, the resources at her command, the ex-
tent of her territories, and the wisdom of those who preside in
her councils, we cannot but believe that Providence has in re-
serve for her even higher honour than she has yet attained—
that of being principally instrumental in introducing the spi.
ritual reign of Him, who has • a name which is above every
name,.King of Kirip,,aud Lord of Lords ;'.—that this hoaour
may be conferred upon her, we bow our knees to the God and
Father of,our Lord Jesus Christ, 6 'from whom descendeth
ever good and perfect gift.'
e beg to assure your Majesty that we yield not to any
of your subjects, in attachment to your Royal Person and Go.
vernment • the principles that seated the House of Brunswick
on the. Thione, we affectionately cherish, and shall not cease
M
to pray your ajesty may continue to enjoy the homage and
lave of your subjects, and hereafter obtain a kingdom that
cannot be moved, and a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
" Signed by order,
" WILLIAM BELL, Moderator."

JAMAICA PAPERS.

KINGSTON, JULY tl.—We stop the press to
announce the conclusion of the trial of the slaves concerned in
the late conspiracy in the parish of Hanover. Twenty-three
were found guilty, and sentence of death was passed on twelve
of them, who were ordered to be executed. Mr. HEATU and
Mr. BATTY conducted the prosecution, and the ADVOCATE-
tiExEuAL and the RECORDER of this city defended the pri-
soners, who, we understand, were convicted on the clearest
evidence.

JAMAICA, Jut.T 23.—(Exectrtosr.)—On Friday E. Jar-
rett, .1. Nesbitt, D. Campbell, P. Davidson, Brown. W.
Moody, and W. Wright, belonging to Argyle estate, and J.
Clark, W, Harding, H. M`Kenzie, and W. Douner, belong-
ing to Golden Grove estate, who had been convicted of rebel-
lion, were removed in three carts from Lucca, and escorted by
two companies of the Hanover regiment of militia, to Argyle
estate. Whilst in the cart Henry 31‘Ketigio exclaimed, if he
could once more get oft' "his lavas he would. teach Lucca people
to make lai4a,i'ar negroes.

On Saturday morning, pursuant to their sentence, the siz
above mentioned negroes belonging to Argyle estate, were
hanged in the Mill.yard of that property. They diettpenitent,
and asked forgiveness of Mr. Malcolm. At the. gallows, one
of the unfortunate wretches took his child, -kissed it, and told
the grandmother to bring it up to obey his master. The same
day the four negroes belonging to Golden Grove estate, named
above, were hanged in the Mill-yard of that property.
Monday Sam James and George White, belonging to Golden
Grove estate, who were convicted on Saturday of rebellion,
were executed at Lucca pursuant to sentence.
His Majesty's ship Icarus, of 10 po, Ca ht. J. G. Graham,
or
sailed from Port Royal yesterday morning for the Havannah,
Quebec, and Halifax. She is to cell off Negril Bay, and wait
24 hours, to give protection to the vessels bound through the
Gulf Passage.
A short time since we stated that. a piratical schooner had
been captured off Belize, by two armed schooners, and that it
was supposed she was owned in the Uiiited States. We have
since ascertained the following particulars. The schooner is a
West India built vessel, and was commanded by a Canadian
Frenchman, whose paper.* represented her as belonging to the
island of St. 'Thomas. The vessel has been condemned, and
the crew (12 in number) are to be tried. It having been sus.
pected that this was not the whole of the pirate's complement,
an armed party proceeded to one of the keys, where they suc-
ceeded in making.ll prisoners, one of whom a negro, turned
King's evidence, and stated that the vessel he belonged to (an
English coaster) had been captured by
.them near the Mos.
quito shore, and all on board murdered, except himself, and
that his life was saved in consequence of his joining the pirates.
These men are in irons in Honduras.
The schooner Nancy, which arrived on the 18th instant from
Baltimore, was boarded by a boat off the Great Caicos, and
learnt that an American slip, belonging to New York, from
Liverpool, bound to the Havannah, with a valuable cargo of
dry goods, was totally lost on the west end of that island on the
2.1 inetant, and that.an American schooner had also been lost
there a short time before.

JULY 20..—0 n the 10th and 11th instant Courta-Martial
were held on board his 3lajesty's frigate 'fusser :
Thomas Goodealiarn,-marine, of the Hussar, was tried fur a
breach of the 2,1,49 th
. and 22d Articles of War, and sentenced
to receive 200 lashes
twelve months in solitary con.
finement in the 3larshalsea, and then turned out of his Ma.
jetty's service.
William Brown, marine, also of the Hussar, for numerous
and repeated. thefts, wes sentenced to receive )100 -lashes, and
drummed out of the itapg
George Martin, seaman of tit r for • •
. a tioner, singing a song of
a inutinout nature, tending to stir up disturbance:4, and create
dissatisfaction, was sentenced to 150 lashes, twelve months
solitary corhlinement in the Marshalsea, and .mulcted of all
his pay.
CU RACOA, JULY 10.—Early in the morning of yesterday
there appeared off the harbour the Columbian man of war
ueica, last from Santa Martha, bound to Laguira, having on
hoard General Montilla who returns to Caraccas for the be.
netit of his health. The Urica conveyed General Soublette to
Carthagena, to assume the reins of the Intendancy of that
place. We learn by this conveyance that 3000 troops had
marched front Carthagena and Santa Martha, to join the army
of the l.iberator in Peru.
Canacc.ss, JUNE 10.—On the Bth instant General Esca-
lons took possession of the Intendancy of this department, with
the accustomed formalities. Our readers will perceive, in this
day's Paper, a Proclamation, that has lately been
issued by
laic Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, enjoining all persons,
within the department under his command, who have held
military rank in the Spanish army, to present themselves at
his head-quarters within eight days of the Proclamation of the
Order. _

The following curious notice appears in the Jamaica Cou-
rant, of the 20th July:
" The Editor of this Paper was impelled yesterday noon to
commit a gross breach of the peace, from the irritation of be-
holding, in a print of this city, the initials of his surname dis-
graced, by being preceded by the name of a coloured woman,
who performed at the theatre on Saturday evening. The in.
suit thus offered the Editor was as unprovoked as the allusion
was disgusting. The Editor, thus tuildly, perhaps unseason-
ably, reverts to the circumstance, being bound to abstain
front all hostility, by the most effectual interference of the
ill agistracy !"
h.triosTom, JULY 22.—The Colombian brig of war Aguila,
Captain Cotterell, arrived at Laguira on the 3d ult. from a
cruise off the Canary Islands • she captured a Spanish brig,
and exchanged broadsides with' a French brig of war.
111°Nri.EGu BAY, JULY 16.--His Majesty's schooner Lion
arrived here on Tuesday evening, and the Assiduous, with a
piratical schooner, on Wednesday morning. We understand
that on the 14th ult. the above vessels, under the command of
Capt. Hobson, destroyed two piratical feluccas in the Palles-
son, on the coast of Principi. They are the same' which plan-
dared the sloop Endeavour, of this port. The crews had de-
serted them ; and on the 26th they also captured the above
piratical schooner, of 3 guns, in Cayo Briton. The crew of
this vessel escaped to the shore on the appearance of the men.
of. war's boats, leaving 7 American subjects on board, being
the master and crew of the Martha Jane, belonging to Prospect
(State of Maine), who had been taken by her on the 28th of
May, near Trinidad. After a laborious search of ten days,
chiefly through mangrove swamps., they succeeded in securing
6of the pirates, and shooting 2. There is every reason to sup-
pose that those who have not been found have perished. There
was a variety of wearing-apparel found on board the pirate,
some of which is marked " Ralph Hart," and others " Daniel
Hart," as also an iron brand "Azores."
The above pirates were, on their arrival here, committed to
the county jail.

ROUBERY UNDtJI SINGULAR CIRCUAIBI'ANCES.-011
Sunday morning week between the hours of six anti seven
o'clock, Mr. James Thompson, late of Dolphin's barn, ap-
plied at James's.street Office for aid to recover property, taken
from bin) under the follow ingextraordinary circumstances :_For
a considerable period (tweraY-three Years) he had cohabited with
a female named Catherine M‘Donnell ; they lived as man and
wife, until within the last few months, when a separation took
place. Catherine M‘Donnell, who had previously went by the
name of Thompson, then took a room In Cork.street. Mr.
Thompson was induced, from the entreaties of a person who
waited on him in her behalf, to visit the object (*fhb' former ar.
fections, at her new abode, on Saturday evening, When he ar-
rived, Catherine M`Donnell was at home; there were two other
persons, Peter and Catherine Birtninghatn, also with her.--
Mr. Thompson had been but a short time in the room, when
twu fellows, in the character of constables, entered, and stated
that they had a writ against him, and that he should forthwith
pay its amount. The parties followed up the application by
forcibly wresting from Mr. T.'a inside pocket notes to amount
of 1261.—viz. one 201., ten 101., and one el.; together with
six' half crown pieces of silver. Peace officers Deatnond , and
Holmes quickly repaired to (;Dark-street, and made diligent
search in the room, where they found ROL in a box. The whole
Party, including the constables win) acted upon the fabricattll
writ, were committed to Newgate for trial, at the next Com-

AMERICAN PAPEItS.

[From the New York Commercial Advertiser, Aug, 91

LATEs•r Fuom Cuir.c.—An obliging Corres-
pondent at Santiago de Chile has transmitted to us the intelli-
gence of the safe arrival at that place of the American, Mini-
ster, the lion. Liman Allen, and family. We are also fa.
voured with the Li Correa de Arauco, of April 30, printed at
Santiago, containing an account of the reception of M:. Allen
by the Chilian Government.

• Chile), of the 30th of April,lB24.—[Translation.l

Yesterday, the 22d instant, the Supreme Director of the
State gave his first public audience to the Honourable. Heman
Allen, Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States near the
Government of Chile. Mr. Allen requested an interview with
the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, in which he exhibited,
conformably to custom, a copy of his credentials ; and in con.
sequence was admitted to a solemn audience, which took place
yesterday, with the greatest possible pomp, and which dezived
additional eclat from the general joy manifested by all the in-
habitants of the capital.
At twelve o'clock of the day, the coaches of the Govern.
ment, with all the circumstances of etiquette, drove to the re-
sidence of Mr. Allen, for the purpose of conducting him to
the Directoral Palace. He was accompanied by the Gentle-
man Usher of Ambassadors, and other Gentlemen of the Go-
vernment: At the foot of the Palace stairs were in waiting
the Aides-de-Camp of the Supreme Director. On alighting
from the coach, the national standard was displayed, accom.
panied by a salute from the batteries of 42 guns ; and the

sr
civil, military, and ecclesiastical, of the capital, awaited Mr.
Allen, in the. Hall of Ambassadors, into which he was intro-
duced by the Minister of Foreign Relations; whet, on present-
ing lrim, spoke as follows.--
" Most Excellent Sill—l have the honour of presenting to
your Ifacellency the Hon. Ileman Allen, Minister Menge).
tentiary of the United States, near the Government of ('bile.
How satisfactory this circumstance must be to me, will be eati_
mated from the interest which your Excellency, the authorities
and the people of Chile, take in drawing close the relations of
friendship with the great nation which has been the first to re-
cognize our independence—which, placed at the front of the
American continent, will for ever be the safeguard of liberty ;
and which, by its acts of generous justice, by the wisdom of its
institutions, and by the virtue' of its citizens, commands our
admiration and our gratitude."
Immediately upon this, Mr. Allen delivered to the Supreme
Director his letter of crt.slence, and pronounced the following
address :

" Most Excellent Sir—The United States of America, being
deeply impressed with the importance of the events which have
released this country from foreign domination, and enabled it
to assume a rank amongst the nations of the earth, have,
throughout this momentous struggle, so far as comported with
its neutral character, been in the constant exercise of friendly
relations; and at a time best calculated to give effect to the
Act, in the most solemn and unconditional manner, recognized
the independence of Chile, and commissioned me, as its repro-
sentative, to reside near Its Court, for the purpose of cultivat-
ing the relations of peace and friendship, and for the inter.
change of mutually kind office,/ on terms of the most perfect
reciprocity between the two nations.
" In the progress of this great work, assuming, as is hoped,
for its only basis the sovereignty of the people, and the equal
and inalienable rights of man, all the sympathies of my country
are most deeply engaged. Difficult and arduous may yet be
the course which remains for Chile to pursue ; but a free people
will never despair. True to herself, and just towards others,
she may bid defiance to any coalition which may threaten her
repose.
" In the mild system of her laws, in the free and enlightened
Institutions of her country, and in the just and liberal exercise
of friendly relations with other nations, Chile, it is believed, is
destined to enjoy not only happiness at home, but to occupy a
distinguished rank among the nations of the world.
'• Uttard well, then, an inheritance of such high value; else,
vain and ineffectual will have been the expenditure of the pub.
lie treasure, which has thus been created ; else, vain will have
flowed thus freely the blood of your heroes ; nay, else posterity
might weep for your imbecility, if you sufferAi these inesti-
mable blessings to pass from you, but with the last ray of your
existence.

" A new era has arrived. Ignorance and superstition, the
very bane of civil liberty, are every where giving place to virtue
an►! intelligence ; and the progress of the human mind, before
which tyrants tremble, bids fair to demolish on its course these
self-created potentates, and restore man to the rank and dignity
which his Creator allotted him. Shall we then, by our exer-
tions, assist in the completion of this fair fabric, or supinely
suffer the superstructure to be destroyed ? Chile, it is believed,
like the United States of America, would not fail to embrace
the former.

" Front the Representative of a free people, whose soil, like
that of Chile, is unpolluted by the hand of tyrants, these senti-
ments have been elicited : may they be received in that spirit
of friendship with which they have been submitted ; and, under
the Divine protection, may the tree of liberty which has been
reared in this highly-favoured land, and consecrated by the
blood of heroes, continue to be watered by the dews of Hea-
ven, expand, and bear rich fruit to the remotest time ; and
never, Oh ! never may it be said of this rising Republic—she
once was free—she once was happy—she once was independent."
The Supreme Director replied as follows :—" The Govern-
ment of Chile is happy to recognise inour Excellency the
worthy Minister of the United States of America—of that
great and respectable nation, whose laws and whose civic
virtues will ever be the admiration of the world. Happy
will it be for Chile, should she be able to discover and pursue
the means for drawing close the relations of friendship and in-
terest between the two nations ; for this alone would be suffi-
cient to perpetuate her tranquillity and happiness. In the
meanwhile, your Excellency and your nation will accept the
gratitude of the people of Chile, for the generous acknowledg-
ment of their independence— for the favourable disposition
which, in relation to these new States, is manifested by the Pre-
sident, in his late Message to the Sovereign Congress; and for
the honour which is conferred on them, in the mission of your
Excellency." .

PERU.
The Argus of the last date contains some interesting official
documents from Peru, relative to the resignation of the Vice-
rophip.of that country by La Sema. The documents, together
with any other items of intelligence, which our tiles may furnish,
a friend has kindly offbred to translate for us forthwith.
It appears, by a proclamation, dated at Oruro, on the 21st
March last, that Lacerna has officially relinquished the post of
Viceroy of Peru, and announced his intention to return to Spain.
His reasons for this course are given at length in the documents
to which we have alone alluded. The substance of them ap-
pears to be, dint inasmuch as a Royal order has been received
from King Ferdinand, declaring that all acts of the Government
of Spain between the 7th of March, 1820. , and the month of
Oct. 1823 (the period of the existence of the late Constitutional
system), shall be considered null and void—that his appoint-
ment of Viceroy, having
also void. been made within that period, is

A letter (says the A 4u s of April BO) received at Buenos
Ayres from Lima, dated the 19th April states, that Bolivar
has paid the Navy in the Pacific up to that date, and that he
was at Trua,illo with 18,000 men, and Gen. Sucre at Macho,
with 8,000. This account may be exaggerated, but the first,
we well know, has mot less than 10,000, and the latter b,OOO.
'We also know that he is daily receiving reinforcements. •

tinguished friend, died in this city on the 10th instant, at six
o'clock in the morning. It is our duty to manifest, as it has
been evinced by the whole city, the grief which is felt for this
lamentable occurrence, and to acknowledge the manner with
which the Government bus testified it by means of the follow-

The Advertiser, of the 9th August, announces the receipt of
letters from Alvarado, dated July Ist and 10th, announcing.
the entry of General Bravo into Guadalajara, amidst great re-,
joicings. The ringleaders will be brought to condign punish=
ment. It is stated in these papers that La Serna, in a prods..
Illation, dated Oruro, has resigned the Viceroyalty of Peru,
and that there are great divisions among the Royalists.

The Ardent, arrived at Baltimore, from the Isttrnas,.state
thatdispatches had been received at Panama from Bolivar, an.
flouncing the capture of Lima and Callao by the troops under
his command. We must wait for further particulars before we
can give any opinion on the authenticig of this intelligence.
Letters trots Quebec, this morning, dated Aug. 1, state, the
immense float or raft, which is reported to be able to convey to
England 6,000 tuns of timber, is at length launched into the
St. Lawrence, and was about to commence loading. This greit
undertaking has fur a length of time attracted the attention of
the merchants connected with the Canada trade. It took fire
some months ago, and was nearly destroyed.
NEW YORE, AVG. 4.—Our Baltimore Correspondents have
furnished us with some interesting news from Peru by way of
Panama. It is verbal, however, and our former experience
should make us cautious in placing too much confidence in its
accuracy. Callao and Luna are said to have fallen again into the
hands of General Bolivar, and the Royal cause is described as
hopeless. One of our Correspondents mentions, that official
letters were received by the Intendant of NT114113 from General
Bolivar himself, confirming this account. We hope and trust
it will prove correct, as well as the other articles of intelligence
accompanying it :—That the Spanish troops and officers are
gienerally opposed to the absolute slonarch, that Hayti has
formed a treaty with Colombia, &c.
