REVOLUTION IN MEXICO.

From the Charlestown Papers received this morning, to the
13th of April.]

C 4 HAVANNA, APRIL I.—l avail myself of the
sailing of the schooner Jane to forward you a re-
gular file of Papers. We have had an arrival
from Vera Cru, with accounts from that city to
the 12th ultimo. It is said by- her that the
Viceroy of Mexico has been dethroned; and
a new Junta formed. Deputies have been
appointed by the Junta to go to Spain- and re-
quest a King from the Cortes, to be selecled out
of the Royal Family, and to reside amongst them,
and their independence to be acknowledged. 1
givo this information as I received it, but certain
it is that a Revolution has taken place in that
Country."

We received this morning .ParisS' Papers o
'uesday last. Prince YPSILANTI and TIIIW•

DORE are stated, in recent letters from Buchares

to have formed a junction of their forces, and
perfect concord is said to subsist between them.
Their forces are estimated at fifty or sixty thou-
sand men, and a Council of Government, charg-
ed with furnishing supplies for the army, has
been formed at Bucharest. The AR CIIIM AND R ITY
GASIS, well known by his writings, is at the head
of the Greeks in Thessaly, who have broken out
into open insurrection, and raised . the Greek
standard. The following ttre furtlier extracts
from the French Papers:—
" NAPLES, APRIL 20.—Our August Sovereign
is expected within our walls. A deputation
from this city repaired to Rome to entreat his
Majesty to return to the bosom of his family, and
to his faithful subjects. The Neapolitan squa-
dron is returned to this port. The Court Mar-
tial of the Government of Naples has just con-
demned to death Paul Ruggioro, a baker at
Naples, aged 22 years, for the crime of carrying
prohibited arms. The sentence has been carried
into execution.
" LISBON, APRIL 21.—1 n the sitting of the
Cortes on the 17th the Commission charged with
the arrangement of the Constitution presented
a project of Law, proposing that the foreign pos-
sessions of Portugal, which have proclaimed the
new Constitution, shall be declared legitimate,
and that any forcible occupation of any portion
of these foreign possessions shall be considered
as a declaration of war against' Portugal.
46 MADRID, APRIL 26.—1 t is affirmed that
General Pepe and fifty officers, Piedmontese and
Neapolitans, have arrived at Barcelona.

" APRIL- 27.—The departure of Sir Henry
Wellesley, who has.so long a time performed the
functions of Ambassador from the Court of Great
Britain to his Most Catholic Majesty, is a very
natural consequence of the system of economy
adopted by the Cortes. The Ambassadors of

Spain being replaced by Ministers Plenipoten-
tiary, the Powers with whom we have relations
treat us as we treat them, on the footing of exact
reciprocity. Besides, Austria, Prussia, and Rus-
sia, have almost always had here Ministers Ple-
nipotentiary, and frequently diplomatic agents of
inferior ranks : very often a Consul has been
entrusted -with all the commercial and political
affairs of these Powers with us."

The Piedmontese Gazette of the 28th does,
not confirm the news of the acceptance of the
Crown by the Duke de G euevois.: It does not

even mention his arrival in Piedmont ; and it
seems the King Victor Emmanuel is still at
Nice, and the Prince of Carignan at Florence.

Flanders and Dutch Mails arrived this morn-
ing. We subjoin their principal contents :--
" HAGUE, MAy 2.—The Gazette of this town
contains the following article :---
" It is asserted, on good authority, that a
Concordat has been concluded between the Holy
See and the Court of Prussia, and that it was
signed on the 23d of March last by Cardina!
Gonsalvi and Prince Hardenberg, in the name
of their respective Sovereigns.
" According to this Concordat, the ancient
Bishoprics
.are re-established by the Govern-
ment, as well as the Chapters and Semirraries.
The Bishopric of Aix-la-Chapelle is suppressed;
but there is to be an Archiepiscopal See created
at Cologne.
" The Concordat further stipulates the free
and public exercise of the Catholic Religion, an
unfettered episcopal jurisdiction; as well as the

faculty of • having; tecoUrte to the Court o,
Rome.

" This news has- been received officially by
the Papal Nuncio at Munich.
" N. B. It was at Rome, and not at Lay-
bach, that the Concordat above mentiontql was
signed.—Cardinal Gonsalvi was not at the Con-.
grass at Laybach.
cz ViENNA, APRIL 26:—Besides the order of
stopping the march of the Russian army for
Italy; the departure of the heavy artillery &c.
of several Austrian regiments to that country is
also countermanded."

If the arbitrary Potentates of -Europe do riot
profit by the rei'olutionary lessons which have
been held forth to them in, France, Spain, Por-
tugal, Naples, Sardinia, and the Brazils, they
will fall the uupitied victims of their own obsti-
nacy, ignorance, and folly; The MARCH OF
MIND has commenced, and, though it may en-
counter a temporary check, it Must finally pro-
duce a due limitation of Recral Power and a
full confirmation of Popular iights. The King
of PORTUGAL and the. BRAZILS has acted tvisely,
and, if he is: sincere, his Throne and FaMily will
Fie secure... Let the Governments of Naples and
Sardinia pursue the same course, or they will
soon have to encounter a repetition of the trou-
bles from which they have obtained a temporary.,
relief. Russia, Austria, Prussia, and even Tur-
key, must adopt the same measures, otherwise
their countries will fall under a military despo-
tism or a vulgar democracy.. An hereditary and
limited Monarchy is the only •Government calL
culated to secure. the freedom and promote the
happiness of the people, and such a form of Go-
vernment, we hope, will in time be universal. •

'.. INDIA.
By dispatches from, Bombay we have the sa-
tisfaction to learn brilliant and successful
achievement by -Lieutenant-Colonel . the lion.
LINCOLN STANHOPE. It, is announced in The
Bombay Gazette in the.followiT7 General Order :
"'The Honourable the Governor in Council has had the gra-
tification of receiving a report from Lieut.-Colonel the Iron.
-L. Stanhope to the address of the Adjutant-General; of the
first operations of the force under his command, in the province
of Okamandel, in the reduction of the fortress of Dwarka. The
'Governor in Council has much satisfaction in noticing the judi-
cious and prompt decision of the Lieut.-Colonel commanding,
and his considerate humanity in the hour of victory, as well as
the skill. discipline, and gallantry, evinced by the officers and
troops of every rank and description."
lie also expresses his regret at the severe
wounds of Captain SOILLIECX and Lieutenant
MARRIOTT.

The fortress was carried by escalade. The
garrison, consisting of•about 550 men, endeavour-
ed to effect a retreat into the adjoining jungles,
but were met by the different piquets posted by
Colonel STANHOPE, and, hemmed in as they were,

a dreadful scene of carnage ensued. One party

of the ht were driven into a back water, deep and
muddy,.through which they passed, and they
made a stand on the bank, and here Captain

SOILLTEUX received two wounds.one of which de

prived him of his right hand. From this the
enemy again threw themselves into the water.
After great numbers had been killed, Lieut.-
Colonel STANHOPE caused his troops to cease
firing, and after long persuasion, the few that
remained were induced to surrender. Endea-

yours were made to save the other party in the
same way, but they continued to fire, and it was
not until two six-pounders had been brought
against them with grape, that they could be In-
duced to give in. Almost every one of the few
remaining were badly wounded, and the whole
found alive amounted only to 50 or 60. The
women, children, and peaceable inhabitants had
gone off into the jungles, and the Brahmins had
retired, with Colonel STANHOPE'S approbation,
to a pagoda outside the town ; so that retribu-

Lion had fallen alone on that class which never
gave, and consequently never expected to re-
ceive quarter. The Lieut.-Colonel bears the
most honourable testimony to the conduct of all
the Officers and men under him. The return

is killed, 4; wounded, 29 ; including three Of-
ficers, Captain SOILLIEUX, Lieutenant MAR-
iuoTT, and Lieutenant CAssA.:sr.
By the same dispatch brought by the Castle

Forbes, the report is confirmed that the expedi-
tion to the Persian Gulph had met withla check.
A battalion, with guns, was left at the island of
Kishem, after we had destroyed the holds of the
pirates. It was not intended that this force should
act on the offensive, -but merely retain its posi-
tion ; but, the Commanding Officer, assisted by a
force•from the Imaum of Muscat, proceeded to
attack a fortress called Cascarry, which the pirates
held. They were attacked by a large body
of Arabs, treble in numbers, and we lost six
Officers killed, and about 500 Sepoys. The
latter fought most bravely, but were overpowered
by numbers.

We are sorry to say, that the excellent Go-
vernor of Bombay, the Hon. Mr. ELPHINSTONE,
had the misfortune to fracture his collar bone,
by a fall from his horse, as he was proceeding to
Kutch on the public business of his Honourable
Employers. They have never had so active, so in-
telligent, and so popular a servant. He was gra-
dually ;getting better, to the infinite satisfaction of
all the Presidency.

C BEAT FOR GERM.-It is reported in the City
'is day, that a forgery bits
.been. discovered at
,e Bank, in the name of Sir ROBERT PEEL, to

the amount of ten thousand Founds. It is said
that the offender was a clerk in the Bank, and
that, on opening his desk, a vast number of Ex-
chequer Bills were found. lie has been taken
into custody.
Yesterday his MAJESTY received visits from
the Duke of YORK and the Princess AUGUSTA.—

His MAJESTY, attended by Sir BENJAMIN
13Loomrtr.Ln, left his Palace at half-past six
o'clock, for the residence of Count LI EVEN, in

riey-street, to stand' sponsor for the infant of

his Excellency, upon which occasion his MA-
JESTY wore a RuFsian uniform, and an Order,
with which his MAJESTY had been Invested by
command of his, Imperial Majesty the Emperor of
ALL THE RUSSIAS.

It appears from the Jamaica Papers, that the
Duke of MANWIESTER has entirely recovered
from the effects of his severe accident, and. had
received numerous congratulatory addresses*from
the inhabitants throughout the island.
