SOLEM Qt. Is DICLE.L FALSUM AUDEAT

LONDON,
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1821.

The fall of Lima, which appears at length to
have taken place, is an event that has too often
been predicted to excite any surprise. The dis-
tracted state of Old Spain, which prevented the
Government of that country from adopting pro-
per measures in order to conciliate the revolted
Colonies, and the increasing prevalence of re-
publican principles -in those Colonies, precluded
all hopes of crushing the insurrection. We have
often animadverted on the folly of the Mother
Country in supposing that it could ever subdue
the Insurgents by coercive measures. The example
of the United States of America in throwing off

their allegiance to the British Monarch presented
a lesson to mankind, by which Old Spain ought
to have profited. We have often said, that it
was the true and only wise policy of Spain to
yield to the inevitable course of events, and to
endeavour to establish a commercial intercourse
with her revolted Colonies, for which the iden,

UV of language, the similarity of habits, and old
feelings of former attachment, might have given
her decided advantages. But all further resist-
ance is now at an end, and if the Cortes of Spain,
for it is folly to talk of the power of the Sove-
reign, are really gifted with political wisdom and
foresight, they will now adopt, the policy which
common sense and experience have long recom-
mended as the only probable remedy for the evil.

The Right Honourable the Earl of NORTIIESK,
K. C. 8., the only Admiral Commanding a Divi-
sion of the Fleet at the Battle of Trafalgar, we
are assured, has been appointed the Rear-Admiral
of England.

[Extract of a Letter from Philadelphia, Oct. 19.]

" The Junius is arrived from Rio Janeiro,
where she left the General Brown, who had ar-
rived from Callao (Lima) on the 16th August,
with 72 passengers. The Ex-Viceroy was one of
them, and reports that General SAN MARTIN was
at Pisco with 10,000 men under arms. The
General Brown was convoyed from Callao by the
Constellation frigate."
[Extract of a Letter from Savannah, Oct. 16.1

C 5 The Concordat is arrived here from Havan-
nah. The Captain informs, that the trade of
robbery is continued in the neighbourhood of
Cuba in the most open manner ; the brig George,
from Boston, was plundered near the Havannah
by row-boats of 530 doubloons ; these boats,
after committing their robberies, return into the
harbour and openly dispose of their booty."

[Extract of a Letter from Valparaiso, July 18.]

" The war in Peru is still going on, and all
eyes are now open, in hopes of seeing the termi-
nation of this campaign. The latest intelligence
from the head-quarters of General SAN MARTIN
left that General and the temporary Viceroy
treating for peace or capitulation, and we mo-
mentarily expect to hear the result of their con-
ference, which will no doubt be favourable to
neutral commerce."

[Extract of a Letter from New York, Oct. 18.]
44 It is reported that an English vessel from
Jamaica, having on board a company of per-
formers, with their musicians and instruments, in
passing the west of Cuba was approached by a
piratical cruiser, whereupon the band struck up
a martial tune, and the Buccaneers immediately
tacked ship and fled, supposing they were getting
alongside a vessel of war."

The state of the metropolis, in a great degree
owing to the want of a more efficient Police, is
truly deplorable, and demands particular atten-
tion and rigorous measures on the part of Go-
vernment. Never were crimes perpetrated with
more audacity than at the present moment. The
streets abound with robbers, who attempt their
depredations in the most open places and at noon
day. A gentleman who came to our office on
Thursday morning, had his coat cut in the attempt
to empty his vocket,but not succeeding, the fellow

walked away with apparent indifference. Bat
these plunderers herd in gangs, and are always
at hand to assist each other by most daring at.;
tacks on those who attempt to take them into
custody. A few evenings ago, a Gentleman
named LOADER, who was passing along Gray's Inn=
lane, was knocked down, and the via*, because
he made some resistance, when he arose, endea-
voured to cut his throat with a l'arge knife, and,
but for the thickness of his cravat, would have
effected his horrible purpose. Mr. LOADER'S
handkerchief wag cut through, and a slight incision
was made on his neck. The robber succeeded
in taking a valuable gold watch, and doubtless

had confederates at band, who would have pro-
ceeded to greater violence if more resistance had
been opposed to their ferocious leader. We have
taken particular notice of the admirable pam-
phlet lately published by Mr. MAINWARING, on
the present inadequate and defective state of the
Police, and we should make further extracts
from that useful work this day, if we were not
prevented by the pressure of various matter,
which obliges us to defer many contributions
from valuable Correspondents ; but the subject
is of the utmost importance, and we shall there-
fore take the first opportunity to renew our at-
tention to it. In the mean time, we earnestly
exhort Government to consider the lamentable
state to which the Metropolis is reduced, which
calls for the utmost vigilance and vigour. Never
did vice of every description exert itself with
more desperate audacity ; immorality seems to
be daily gaining ground, and threatens to cor-
rupt the lower orders of the people, to make
crimes of all kinds familiar, and to render
our streets in the day, and our houses in the
night, wholly insecure from bands of the most

furious and barbarous ruffians. No false lenity
ought to prevail in the treatment of these ruffians,
and the laws of the country ought to be put in
force, and strengthened by measures of signal
exemplary justice.

By advices from Santiago de Chili of the Sth
of August, received at Lloyd's, it appears that
by a decision of the Admiralty Court of Valpa-
raiso, the ships Lord Suffield and Edward El-
lice, with their cargoes, have been restored to
their owners.

Letters from Havannah, dated Oct. 5, mention,
that Mexico and Vera Cruz had refused to ac-
cede to the late treaty entered into by ITURBIDIE.:7
and sanctioned by the new Viceroy, O'DoNoJ
They add, that fresh dissentions had broken out
among the Independents.
The Junta of Representatives of Buenos Ayres
passed a decree on the 21st of ATi'ust, directing
that a new tariff, to operate from the beginning- of
the year 1822, shall be published as speedily as
possible, and making in the mean time certain re-
gulations on the custom-house duties. Among these
is one which provides that the import duties shall
in the mean time remain as in a former tariff
but afterwards exceptions are made to the fol-
lowing effect, viz. :—Spirits to pay 72 dollars
per pipe of six barrels, provided the strength
does not exceed 24 degrees, increasing the duty
in proportion to the strength of the spirit; wine/
42 dollars ; vinegar, 30 ; tobacco of Paraguay'
2 dollars per arroba ; black or coloured tobacco
of Brazil, and other foreign tobacco, 4 dollars
the arroba ; sugar, 1 dollar. The followiag
articles are exempted from every kind of dal,
viz.: gums, wool, hair, and dying-stuffs, for the
manufacture of hats : molasses and honey for the
manufacture of spirits; and all kinds of utensil;
and machines used in the manufactures of the,
country. The articles which do not pay genera'
duties are also exempted from those which relate
to the foreign branches. Silver in specie pays On
exportation 3 per cent. If in bullion or worke,
4 per cent. Gold in specie pays 1 per cent. •

in bullion, or worked, 2.
By the arrival of the ship Middleburg, off Pl'
mouth, from China and Batavia, which latter place
she left on the 27th of July, letters have been
received in town of the most melancholy descrir
tion. They state that no less than seventeen
thousand of the inhabitants had been carried 06
by the cholera morbus. The rice crop had failed,
and in consequence the Government had. prohi-
bited all exportation. Its price on board 04
was 2 7,,and on shore 21-1. The coffee crop wag
very abundant, but from the dreadful malady
now raging, a want of hands was experienced to
pick it.
Yesterday an Austrian Messenger arrived at
Chandos House with dispatches for his Highness
Prince ESTERHAZY. He came by way of Pa"

Court of Common Council. The King's Guard,
from the brigade of grenadiers, in white gaiters,
Preceded by a band in their state uniform,
marched into the Palace-yard soon after two
o'clock.—A detachment of the Royal Horse
Guards arrived in Waterloo-place, opposite to
the Palace, with their full band, in their state
uniforms, but the whole corps wore their blue
cloaks, in consequence of the incessant heavy
rain which fell in the course of the morning, not-
withstanding which a great number of spectators
assembled. The porters at the gates of the Pa-
lace-yard appeared in their state liveries, and
also in their new velvet caps, which they wore
for the first time in England since the Corona-
tion ; the tops of them are richly covered with
ornamental gold ; they have a tassel on the right
side, and a broad gold lace band, with a buckle,
round them.—Townsend, and a numerous assem-
blage of officers and constables, were in attend-
ance.—The Gentlemen Porters, the Marshalmen,
and the Under Porters, were in attendance at
the doors, &c. of the Palace. The Grand Hall
was lined by the Yeomen Guards. The Gentle-
men Porters and Pages were in attendance in
their new coronation uniforms of purple and gold
lace, embroidered buttons, with white kersey-
mere waistcoats and breeches, with gold lace and
knee-bands.

all and State Rooms to the Throne Room,
which had a most brilliant appearance, his Ma-
jesty being seated on his Throne dressed in a
Field... Marshal's uniform, surrounded by his Ca-
binet Ministers, the Great Officers of State, and
others. An avenue was formed to the Throne by
a numerous assemblage of the Honourable Corps
of Gentlemen Pensioners, headed by their Lieut.,
Henderson, Esq. dressed in their ancient
and splendid fanciful uniform, in which they ap-
peared for the first time on the memorable day
of his Majesty's Coronation. The Lord Mayor,

sive manner

TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.

Most Gracious Sovereign !
We, your Majesty's dutiful and loyal subjects, the Lord

to none in willing and steady allegiance to our King, and in af-
fectionate devotion to your Royal House, we feel, in grateful
sympathy with every honest heart, the fervent effusions of
loyalty which your Royal Presence has excited in every class o
your 'Majesty's subjects during your progress.
We are fully sensible of the many and great blessings which,
order Divine Providence, are secured to us by your Majesty's
Paternal care ; and, as we could not but experience considerable
solicitude for the arrival of the hour which would bring back to
us our beloved Sovereign in health and safety, so we most ar-
-4erltl3' join in the general joy at your return. The Shield of
Providence has been over you. Long may your Majesty wield
the imPerial sceptre of these realms, under the Divine Protec-
tion ; long may you preserve the glory and prosperity of the
country, and enjoy the consolation of ruling over a free, loyal,
and happy 'people.

It is with the greatest satisfaction that I receive your Congra-
tulations upon my safe return to my British dominions.
The sentiments of loyalty and affection with which I have
been greeted during my absence from this part of my kingdom
we're similar to your own, and to those which I am fully per-
suaded are entertained by all ranks and descriptions of my
faithful subjects throughout the empire.
f Tile City of London may confidently rely on my constant
"c)nr and protection, and I humbly trust that a Gracious Pro-

vidence will assist and prosper my earnest endeavours to pro-
mote the true interest and happiness of my people.

Officers, were most graciooSly received, and had
the honour to kiss his MAJEsT- 's hand:, The
Gentlemen of the Court of Common Council were
then conducted into the Royal presence by the
City Remembrancer, when the RECORDER read
the following Address :
