In another part of our Paper will be found the
General Order issued by the Right Hon. the Gover-
nor-General in Council, on the successful termination
of the Burmese War. This important Document
will be read with deep interest, as well by those
relatives have shared the glory of the triumph which
has been gained, as by all who feel a proud satisfac-
tion in tracing the achievements of the Military and
Naval Forces of Great Britain, wherever their services
are called into action.
The honourable mention made by Lord AM HERST'
in this General Order, of the conduct of all br whose
aalii!s
of the Service, during a contest, as peculiar as it "11°
arduous in its nature, will remain a record of tha
merits, not only of the individuals whose name 1/1110

Commander Sm t TII, of his Majesty's sloop 4s4**6
arrived at the Admiralty this morning from the East
Indies, bringing despatches to Mr. CuoicEtt
front
Comodore Sir JAMES BRISBANE, collllllllllding
his MAJESTY'S ships on tha Indian station. Th.
contents of the despatches, as far as they relate to the
operations of the squadron against the Burmese Ilsve
been anticipated by arrivals through other eh/Mack.
Sir JAMEs BRISBANE, though still very unwell, sailed
in the Boadicea on the 23d March from Penang, l°l*
the purpose of resuming the immediate cornivaild of
the squadron employed at Rangoon, but hearing, 'll

terminated in favour of the Greeks. The account,
however, appears to us to bear strong symptoms of
fabrication.

Dutch Papers of the 25th inst. arrived last night.
They contain no political news, but the accounts from
Groningen of the sickness raging there are of a most
melancholy description. The number of deaths which,
from the 7th to the 14th inst., was 142, had increased
in the following week to 175. So great a want of
medical assistance is experienced, that the greater part
of the sick remain without advice.

We received this morning the Nuremburg Corres-
pondent, 'of the 19th instant, bait its contents are
totally uninteresting to English readers.

Frankfort Tapers of the 21st instant, have also
arrived :—Under date of Vienna it is said, that His
Imperial Highness, the ARCHDUKE. PALATINE, of
Hungary, called a joint meeting of both Chat*.
hers of the Diet, sitting at Presburg, in which
a resolution of his Majesty the Emperor in answer
to the repreSeht4tion of the Diet was read. A
principal -point- of it was, .that the States were
to declare what subjects they considered it neces-
sary to be discussed in the present Diet, and how much
time they, thought would be required for the. purpose.
The answer was to be given to his MAJESTY in five
weeks at the latest. This appears to be a-summary
mode of legislation, which might be introduced
with . great benefit into chambers blessed with
midnight long speeches, if it did not indirectly
interfere with the right of discussion. But the Em-
peror of A ustafA. may be reckoning without his host.
It is worse than useless to convene the representatives
of a nation for state purposes, if they are not allowed
sufficient time to execute their duties. Besides, what
does it import to his Majesty, how long they are about
the improvement of the laws, so that they dispatch
the business effectually ? But Austria has a rare
way of conferring liberty—the boon is insidiously of-
fered to the people, much in the same manner that
poison is administered to rats-7—if they touch it they die.

lExtract of a Letter, slated Angostura, June 27.]
SoMe circumstances having taken place in 'Venezuela, which
may probably be exaggerated by the enemies of the Country much
to its prejudice, we think proper to give you some of the principal
facts relating thereto ; the long smothered desire which has ex-
isted in Venkuela, particularly in the Caraccas, for a Federal
Government, burst forth early in Mi 4 last, when the Cabildos of
Caracc.as, Lagnayra, Valencia, Porto; and some other of the smaller
'towns, by public acts invested General Peer with the Supreme
Civil and Military authority, until Government would convene
the National Assembly, which, by the Constitution, ought not to
take place until the year 1831 ; and declaring that the inconveni-
eace suffered by the people in Venezuela, in consequence of the
distance front the seat of Government, was too much to be
longer borne. Subsequently, every town in Apure, from Ba-
rinos to Salt Fernando, have made similar declarations, so that
we think Government will have little choice, but to accede, for
it certainly would be a very dangerous expedient for Govern-
anent, to resort to force to reduce this rebellion, widely spread,
Its it is; as yet, however, there are no hostilities commenced or in-
tended that we know of, on either side, only the communication
between Mar arena Barcelona, Cumana, and Angostura, which
remain true to the Government and Constitution, is stopped with
those places that have declared for Paez. Expresses have been des-
patched from all quarters to Bogota, at well Si to Panama, for
Bolivar, who is earnestly exorted by Poet to Hy to Venezuela to save
the Paola, so that the present state of things will soon be brought
to a crisis, and it is confidently expected,
re-election of General Santander,
as without bloodshed. The,
Vice-President, has not a
little accelerated this burst, as he has for some time back become
very obauxious to Venezitelians. Dr. Pinar has also been lighting
the match, as since his disgrace with Go srin io has bleu
la Valencia with Paez, his eonfi 4

It would have been observed by our ship news of
yesterday, that his Majesty's ship Diamond, Capt. Lord
NAPIER, whose arrival at Spithead or Plymouth has
been long inxiouily.looked for, had reached Milford
Haven on the 25th inst. We, mentioned some time
since that the DiaMond mined fiOrn Lisbon on the
10th of August, having on board his
Excellency Sir
CHARLES .STUART, and that some uneasiness would
have been experienced
respecting ter, in consequence
of her non-arrival, had it not been surmised that site
had proceeded, on leaving the Tagus, to the Western
Islands, for the purpose of taking on board again some
officers and men, whom Lord NAPIER had put on
board the wreck of the 'ship Francis and Mary, of
and frOm St. John's, New Brunswick, for Liverpool,.
which the Diamond had fallen in with in her voyage
from ItiO de Janeiro to Lisbon. This surmise ap-
pears to have been well founded. On the arrival of
the Diamond at St. Mary's, oniv of the Western
Islands, Lord NAPIER found the vessel there, with
his officers and men, who had been supplied with some
re9uisite stores and provisions by an American vessel.
The Diamond proceeded with the vessel to St.
Michael's, thence to Flap' and Terceira, and reached
Maw& itt safety with her, having been obliged:to
;make for, that port in consequence of the south-east
wind, which prevented their coming up Channel.

Sir CHARLES STUART and suite remain on board
the Diamond, and, it is supposed, will proceed in her

The Diamond convoyed a
,valuable Spanish ship,
bound from Manilla for Corunna, to within 400 miles
of the latter port. She had remained some time at
St. Mary's, on accouiit of the Colombian privateers.

" There's another star gone out" in the Milky Way
of waning schemes and 'shabby speculations. The
golden Shareholders of the Chilian Mining Company,
after meeting yesterday to count their gains had not
sufficient brass to hold up their heads, although their
golden promises were all turned into copper. What
a villainous realization of their authentic assurances
that the Mines in Chile would be productive of nothing
but gold, and that to an unlimited amount, when lo !
they are plagued with "baser" metal till the finger of
scorn points to the gravelly substance of their hopes !
It has been said that a prophet has no fame in his
own country, and we fear that the " grave diggers" of
the Chilian Association, have not thrown up enough
"of rubbish to cover themselves decently in the pit
which they dug for their silly 'subscribers. 'We are
really surprised that such a sober-minded man as
Mr. TrromAs WILSON should be led away by
the vanities of golden toys, even though countenanced
by the stout-hearted inspirations of BA RCL AY. But
the wisest will err if they place their faith upon the
treasures of molehills, and pay others for the labour of
digging ! We have no doubt that the grave-diggers
in the play could get up a much better farce to beguile
the money-changers of their wits. This precious com-
pany has sunk about 60,000 pounds in gold, to
dig up some tons of copper ! There was no gold to
be got, and they wisely thought that the appearance
of the pricious metal, was better than nothing, and
so they came forward asking for more gold in
order to go deeper into the mine, rightly judging
that gold like truth is to be found at the bottom of the
well—but the Subscribers thought it was a bottomless
pit, and told the Directors to go to perdition, for the
bubble had bursts and with it the Chilian Company.

Accounts have been received from Demerara, that the Colony
was 'thrown into a state of considerable agitation, by some new
Church regulations, which the Dutch and Presbyterians have pe-
titioned against, and which seem to have excited great interest.
It is reported that the 64-gun man of war, building at Mar-
seilles for the service of the Pacha of Egypt, on her being launhched,
fiU ou her broadside and bilged.' • •

It is reported in the City, that Lord Cochrane. has arrived at
Napoli di Romania.
