PORTSMOUTH, JUNE 7.—On Thursday his Majesty's
sloop the Pylades, Commander E. Blanckley, arrived
from the South American station (having served her
period), bringing a freight of 400,000 dollars in
specie, on merchants' account. She left' Bahia the
Bth of April, and on the 10th ult., in lat. 25. 43. N.
lon. 44. 19 W., she fell in with and seized the brigan-
tine Clemente (which arrived here with the Pylades),
upon the strongest appearances of her being a pirate,
having only a part of the necessary papers to consti-
tute her a legal trader, there being no manifest, port
clearance, nor register on board, although she has a
cargo which has not yet been examined, but among
which the crew affirm to be 500 barrels of gunpowder.
She is a fine vessel, having only one gun, with a crew
of thirty-three men. Though she is deficient in her
own papers, she has on board the clearance of the
English brig St. James, of Guernsey, Le Feuvre,
master, which bears the same date at the Havannah as
the crew of the Clemente confess they left that port.
being bound, as they say, to St. Thomas's Island, on
the coast of Africa. She is also evidently fitted for
slaves, having 'boilers and irons on board, with spare
plank for an extra deck. Another coincidence of the
real character of this vessel is, that she sailed from
Havannah at the time that one of our Mexican packets
was dogged by a similar vessel, to avoid which the
commander thought it p-udent to return to port. For
the news the Pylades brings of the recent movements
of our squadron on the South American station, and
of the present political state of affairs there generally,
we refer to the subjoined list of our correspondent's
letter :

ARCHES' COURT, JUNE 7.

JUDGMENT-lIADLEY V. REYNOLDS, FALSELY CALLING

HERSELF HADLEY.
Sir J. NicuoLL gave judgment in this case. It was
a cause brought by letters of request from the diocese
of Winchester, and was to have pronounced a mar-
riage null and void, on the ground of undue publica-
tion of bans. The Court of King's Bench had so
lemnly decided this question in the case of the King
v. the inhabitants of Roxton, where a marriage was
held valid though the Christian and surname of the
female were false, but it was proved that the female
did not know that the bans had been falsely pub-
lished. The question in this case was, did the female
know her name had been published falsely. The party
bringing the present suit was a clergyman, and aged
twenty-eight at the time of his marriage with his wife,
whom he now wished to turn adrift, after the mar-
riage had been contracted for above three years. The
marriage had been kept secret in order that the father
of the husband should not know it. The parties oc-
casionally cohabited, and the fruit was a child. The
marriage de facto did take place, but the husband
prayed no favour at the hands of the Court, and surely
he was not entitled to any ; he only prayed for the due
administration of the law, and the Court would take
care that it was duly and fairly administered. Here a
clergyman came forward and acknowledged his own
guilt, that he had obtained the publication of false
bans, and by fraud and contrivance had obtained pos-
session of her person, and now sought to have his mar-
riage dissolved. The onus of proof was with the hus-
band; he had not shown that his wife knew that the
bans were fraudulently published before the cere-
mony. He should therefore pronounce that the hus-
band had failed in his proof, and dismiss the wife from
the suit.

" RIO JANEIRO, MARCH 23.—The Spartiate (bear-
ing Sir M. Seymour's flag), Snake, and Rapid, are
lying here at present, with the Cockatriceand Hornet
packets. The cruisers are kept constantly at sea.
The Conway, 28, Captain Eden, left on the 18th
ult. for the Pacific, where the Dublin, 50, Lord J.
Townsend (senior officer), Samarang, 29, Captain
Charles Paget, and Challenger, 28, Captain M. Sey-
mour, are now stationed. The Challenger has landed
Lieutenant Smith and his party at the Falkland
Islands, as a garrison, whither the British flag now
flies. We have no doubt but they will form the
nucleus of a useful colony. The Pylades (which goes
home from the northern parts, where the Sat Bite is
now gone) left Coquimbo on the Ist of February ; it
was then expected that the Dublin would leave for
England, with specie, on the Ist of June, and the Se-
marang on the Ist of October. In Chili public affairs
were progressing amicably, and trade, as a conse-
quence, was flourishing there. In Peru, though there
the authorities had caused no direct interference with
mercantile affairs, yet the still disturbed state of the
country, connected with some paltry, illiberal imposts,
were productive of much vexatious feeling, and pre-
vented that freedom of intercourse which it must be to
the advantage of so young a republic should exist.
We have no ship at present in the River Plate, of
which the most favourable that can be said is, that no
actual warfare or open intestine division at present ap-
pears. The strength of parties in the Northern Bra-
zils is decidedly in favour of a republican form of go-
vernment ; in the south the Regency party is the
most extensive and powerful, sufficiently so to keep
the former in submission to its authority, though the
most inveterate dislike mutually taken by the natives
and the Europeans frequently agitates that province.
You may hence judge what chance Don Pedro would
have if he should attempt, upon the close of affairs
in Portugal, to regain the diadem of his former impe-
rial empire, an object not judged unlikely by those of
his party in Rio."
The Pylades received from a sealing vessel off Cape
Horn a paper which had been picked up on Roberts'
Island, South Shetland, which was found in a copper
cylinder, and appears to have been thrown overboard
from his Majesty's ship Chanticleer, October, 1829,
and signed by the lamented Captain Foster ; but no
date is given when it reached Robert's Island.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

QUEEN-SQU A RE.

A rather diminutive, dark-complexioned man,
named John Hill. alias Hele, and William Bolton, a
middle aged man, having the appearance of a porter,
were placed at the bar before Mr. GREGORIE, and
charged with obtaining money under false and fraudu-
lent pretences, by delivering sham parcels at the resi-
dences of the nobility and gentry.
Mr. GREGORIE committed both of them for trial at
the next Westminster Sessions.

As senior officer on the north coast of Brazil, in
April, 1832, Commander Blanckley received the public
thanks of the body of British residents of Pernambuco
for the active protection he afforded to them and their
property during the revolt and massacre which then
occurred in that city, and it was known in the squadron
that the official approbation of the Lords of the Admi-
ralty was also notified to him for his conduct there as
well as at Madeira, on his going out to the station,
where also every British resident joined in an address
of thanks to him for his manly protection of their in-
terests at an eventful period. This meritorious officer
is a nephew of the late Lord Nelson. The Pylades
sailed this afternoon for Plymouth, to be paid off, with
the Clemente in company.
The Andromache, with Lord Napier and suite, for
Canton, arrived at Rio Janeiro April 1, from Ply-

On Thursday the Curlew, 10, Commander H. D.
Trotter, arrived from the west coast of Africa, with
the Esperanza schooner, which she detained at St.
Thomas's, in the month of October last, for having
been piratically employed, and has brought her to
England to be condemned. The Curlew left Ascen-
sion on the 2d of April, leaving there the Isis, 52,
Captain Polkinghorne, and Lynx, 4, Lieut. Huntley;
the former was to sail on the sth April for the Cape of
Good Hope, and the latter, when refitted, for the west
coast. The Fair Rosamond had left Ascension for the
Bight of Benin • the Griffin was in the Bight ; and
the Pelorus at Prince's Island. The Trinculo arrived
at Ascension from Prince's Island, and sailed again
for the Cape during the Curlew's stay at the former
place. The Forester was at the Cape. The Curlew
touched at St. Michael's on the 13th May, and sailed
thence on the 15th. Perfect unanimity of political
feeling prevailed there ; a sincere attachment to the
cause of Donna Maria; the island was in the undis-
turbed possession of her troops. The Curlew put into
Plymouth on Sunday, and left for this port on Monday
morning, Lieuts. 130 e Saumarez and Dixon, R. N
