netlfastness of our friendship, and for the muni-,

44ded to her. Her conduct affords further evi-
tolice that it would be madness in this country
th4lnndon her ancient commercial system, under
we eXpectation that so generous an example
°Uld be followed by foreign Powers. We

should rain destroy that policy Which has etc-1
waled England to her present eminence in corn-
.mercial prosperity and naval power, and relin-
quish the solid advantages which we possess for
. ,
the empty 'promises held out in the theoretical
peculations of a few visionary modern econo-
mists. We repeat, that the principles on which
their system is founded, though true in the ab-
stract, is wholly inapplicable to the existing cir-
cumstances of England, and could only be produc-
tive of disappointment and ruin in its practical
effects. The only practicable means of improv-
ing our foreign commerce is economy in the pub-
lic expenditure, reduction of taxett, and such an
extension of scientific power as shall enable our
manufacturers to enter into a successful compe-
ition with the manufacturers of other countries.
Even this, the most sure course of improvement
for our foreign commerce, might possibly be de-
feated,—and from the disposition manifested by
foreign Governments we fear would be defeated,
by the imposition of further import duties on the
admission of our goods into their ports. The
best, safest, and most humane policy of Eng-
land, whether as respects the operations of the
Government, or the enterprise of the people, is
to cultivate the inexhaustible resources presented
by her domestic industry and, colonial posses-
sions. These are the true and solid bases on
which the vast fabric of her prosperity and power
may permanently be placed.

His MAJEsTY, we are assured, desirous of
gratifying the Public in general, gave orders
himself for the opening of the Theatres, and the
fire-works in Hyde Park, on the day of the Coro-
nation. This gracious regard to the enjoyment of
the People, while his mind might be supposed to
be wholly intent on the arduous labours which
he was to undergo on that day, cannot but endear
him, if possible, still more to the hearts of his
subjects. It is indeed manifest that his MA-
JESTY is anxious to succeed his revered father in
the full inheritance of popular affection, as well
as in all the rights and honours of the Empire.
It is expected that his MAJESTY will not leave
town before Monday next, when "he certainly
proceeds to Brighton.—(;'liorning Paper.)
BRIGHTON, JULY 25.—1 t is said to be our
most gracious SovErtmaN's intention to be at the
Pavilion on Saturday. The town, as may well
be supposed, are in high spirits in consequence.
The whole of the grand suite of apartments, we
find, are getting ready, and will be in suitable
condition for Royal use at the time specified. It
is also rumoured, and, perhaps accurately, that
his MAJESTY purposes giving a splendid enter-
tainment here to all the Foreigners of distinc-
tion in the country, prior to his embarkation for
Ireland. A few of the Royal domestics,- and
the individuals of the KING'S Private Band, re-
turned to this place yesterday, and others are
expected to be here this evening and to-morrow.

1.) I:ATI! OF ALDERMAN ROTII;ELL.—The wor-
thy Alderman, after a severe illness, died yester-
day morning at half-past three, at his house at
Clapham. Ills death occasions a vacancy for the
Ward of Cheap. He was chosen Alderman, in
the room of the late Alderman GOOD BEII ERE, in
the year 1819, and served the office of Sheriff for
the City of London in 1820.
AFFAIR OF JloNouß.—A duel took place in
Dublin on Friday evening, between an English
Gentleman P—y, and a Capt. C G, which
terminated happily, after the exchange of two
shots, each second having interfered.
To the military reductions which we announced
yesterday, report adds the 18th hussars, 19th
lancers, 2d Ceylon regiment, and two West
India regiments ; one battalion of the• Royals
and one of the 60th is also mentioned. The re-
duction of the companies is stated at five men
each company.—(Morning Paper.)
Mr. K EMBLE.—A very fine bust of this cele-
brated Tragedian has just been executed by Mr.
CHARLES WESTMACOTT. The expression of the
countenance is of a calm and contemplative cha-
racter, and its fidelity to nature will easily be re-
cognised by all who have seen the original on those
ordinary occasions when the features, though not
kindled by passion,' yet gave the strongest indi-
cation of the fire of genius. The drapery is in
the Roman style, and disposed with classical
taste and precision. The performance is certainly
very creditable to Mr. WEsTmAcoTT, and will,
we doubt not, serve to enhance his reputation as
an artist.

ELECTION FOE. TIIE WARD OF BASSISIIAW.—
Yesterday, at the close of the Poll; the numbers'
were—

For Mr. Henry Hughes -
Mr. William Lister - ' - - 17
Majority for Mr. Hughes - -2.
Mr. HUGHES returned thanks in an appropriate
speech for the support they had given him. -Mr.
LtsTEn, in returning thanks, attributed the low
state of the poll to the inhabitants having kept
back, and his loss of the election to several per-
sons who would have turned the scale, not
having come forward as they promised him. No
other proceedings took place, and the Wardmote
separated.
The Highlander, at the Coronation, alluded
to in a late paragraph, entitled, " Mysterious
Circumstance," was a Mr. MCNAUGHTEN,
llighland costume.—( Herald.)

A young man fresh from the Grammar School,
being en a visit to one of his comrades in the
country, went with him bird-catching. When
the snare was prepared and they were waiting
for the arrival of their intended prey, the scholar
perceived a flight of them at hand, and im-
mediately hallooed out in Latin, " Adsunt !"
that is, " Here they come!" The birds being
scared away by this unseasonable address, his
companion expostulated with him on the oc-
casion. "My good friend, (replied the astonish-
ed scholar), who could have thought these ignor-
ant birds would have understood Latini'" •

CHILL

MASSACRE of the MAsTEn and PATtT of the CREW of the
. Ship Or: LEY, of London, at the ISLAND of ST. MARY'S,

on the COAST of CHILI.

" On Saturday, February 24, 1821, at 10 A.M., saw several
men, 6 or 8, on the Island of St. Mary's. Captain I.IALE3
supposing those men to have come over from the main for the
purpose of trading, as they usually did, went on .shore with a
boat's crew, armed with cutlasses and pistols, for the purpose of
procuring refreshments for the use of his shin. On their land-
ing, these men, supposed to be Spaniards, ran away behind th
beach, and our boat's crew after them.—Sunday 25. Sun down..
Boat not returned—all on board-felt anxious for the safety of
the Captain and crew. At 6h. 30 in. P.M. sent the third mate
on shore to launch the Captain's boat, and bring her of 7th do.
the third mate returned, informing us there were several men on
the beach, and from their movements supposed there were more
behind the beach, and being dusk he judged it most proper not
to attempt landing. The Chief Mate 'immediately armed the
boat, and sent her off with orders to lay as near as possible
abreast of the Captain's boat, but not on any account to land.—
At day-light, perceived the boat was missing—the night being
dark, it was supposed they had carried her up behind the
beach.-5 A.M: boat returned on board at 8 h. 30 m.—armed
taaa boats, the one headed by the Chief Mate, the other by the
third Mate, and went on shore. On coming near the beach
they perceived a man naked, sitting on the bench—on coming
up to him they discovered him to be THOMAS MOORE,
armonrer, covered with blood. He wr:s perfectly sensible, and
informed their': that on their first landing the Spaniards appe:red
very friendly, t4ving them' bread And meat flifterWards they per-
suaded them to deliver up their arms, bound them 2 and 2, and car-
ried them about 3 milesmto the Island aafter that they brought
them back nearer to'the beach amongst sdrue bush es,and as soon as
i4was dark, they stripped them, and put them all to death, except-
ing him, whom they left for dead, having received twenty-three
spear wounds in his body, and two sabre cuts, one on each. side.
of the neck. He was immediately brought on hoard, when
examined him, and found that his lungs had. been pierced
upwards through the diaphragm, on each side ; he told me he.
counted twenty,tive men just prior to their being murdered.—
Soon after the beats returned, a great number of men, supposed
to be about fifty, were seen coming towards the beach; soon after-
wards a man presented himself, dressed in the Captain's clothes,.
and waved his hat for a boat to come on shore ; he was accom-
panied by three or four„ who appeared to be officers in green
uniform, avidt cocked hats and sabres; the rest we could dis-
cover lying behind the beach. The man on the beach appeared
so much like Captain Khans, that I questioned 'the armourer
whether he was positive the Captain was killed ; he assured niche
was, and said the captain or leader of the Spaniards very much
resembled Captain IraaEs, as to outward appearance; that he
had) remarked it when on shore. We immediately weighed
anchor, and
.stood for Conception.—At 5, P.M. the armourer
much worse ; 9th do. departed this life."
