Dutch Papers to the 18tb inst. reached us this morn•
ing. They state that the King of the NICTHERLANDS
was confined to his chamber on account of a bad leg,
occasioned by a wound he received in 1793, but that he
was otherwise in good health, and transacted business
with his Ministers.

This forennan we received Hamburgh Papers to the
14th inst. They contain some further details of the late
inuadatrn at St. Petersburgh ; and the firman of the
SULTAN, which appeared in the STAR some weeks ago,
ordering a quantity of Bibles, Palters, &c. imported at
Aleppo, to be burnt.
This firman, it appears, was sent to the Cadi of
Aleppo, who thereupon called together the Chiefs of the
several Christian communities, and commanded them
to enjoin such of their brethren as had any of these pro-
hibited books in their possession, to deliver them up,
threatening to hang all those who should be found to
have retained the books. It is affil med, however, that
on the evening of the 11th of August, not a single copy
had been delivered up. An those persons who speak
on the subject, the Roman Catholics as well as the °the
Christians, believe that this Erman has been issued at
the instance of the Roman Catholic Clergy.
Accounts from Stockholm, of the Sd of December, po-
sitively state that the new Tariff of Customs will be pub-
lished in a few days. It is affirmed that manufactures of
iron, steel, and cloth, are among the few articles that will
remain entirely prohibited. The following are extracts:

DR. BOEItHAAVE'S RED PILL (No. 2), a cele-
brated Anti-venereal and purifier of the blood. A certain
Complaint, and all the direful consequences of neglect and bad
treatment, are best combated by the use of this Pill. It is a re-
medy which acts with equal mildness, certainty, and expedition ;
requires no hindrance of business, and is taken without exposure.
Its amazing sale for the last fifty years is the best proof of its sur-

" His Excellency the Lord High Commissioner having to-day
received an official note from the Consul-General of his Majesty in
Albania, that the plague has manifested itself in that country, and
has penetrated to Arta and the places in the neighbourhood ;
re-
flecting on the troubles existing in the environs of this country,
which have taken place very recently in that part of Albania, and
the state of war in which it is; considering that the frequent com-
munications and the continual commerce between this island and
the countries infected expose it to contagion ;
" Has ordered the execution of the proclamation dated the 23d
of July, 1822, the object of which is to hinder all communication
with Epirus, Albania, and Acarnania, where the infection has ma-
nifested itself, in order that every person may conform to it.
(Here follow the prohibitions commanded by the said proclama-
tion, printed in English, Greek, and Italian].

THE THEATRES.

HAYMARICET THEATRE.
The Marriage of Figaro formed the chief attraction
at this Theatie last night, and amply frilfilled the ex-
pectations of the numerous audience collected to enjoy
the comic spirit and beautiful music with which it
abounds. To the first 'Astor; nave full play ; and the
latter received from Madame Visvits, who appeared
for the first time as Susanna, and from Mrs. GARRICK,
who personated the Countess, that degree of execution,
taste, and rich intonation, best calculated to display its
merits. The whole gave infinite satisfaction, which was
not marred by the after-touch which the audience had
of Matrimony.
ENGLISH OPERA-ROUSE.
The attractions of this House appear to be undimi-
nibhed in public opinion. Last night the audience was
as numerous as might be expected on a first representa-
tion, though there could he no doubt of the success of
the performances.—Mr. Mavitaws, as Doubikin, kept
the audience in a roar from first to last : but to speak of
MArnews as being well received, is a matter of course;
and it therefore may be.but fair to mention the subordi-
nate but meritorious exertions of Mr. BARTLIBY and
Mr. KEELEY, who both gave every possible effect to the
characters of the Alderman and the Postboy.

BALLOON ASCENT.
TAUNTON, SEPTEMBER 8.
Mr. Gnamem, accompanied by Mr. R. Cucuta; jun. son of the
Proprietor of the Afred, Exeter Paper, ascended from the Castle-
yard, at Exeter, yesterday, at half-past five o'clock, In presence of
an immense concourse of spectators. The course of the balloon was
first in the direction of the sea; but the current soon afterwards
impelled the aerial voyagers towards the North-east, and the balloon
was seen coming in the direction of this place. The voyagers suf-
fered considerably, w•i:^;1 in the higher regions, from extreme cold.
Having been up one ,our and five minutes, the aeronauts judged,
from the rapidity with which they were proceeding, that it would
be prudent to descend; and, having carefully discharged the gas,
they happily descended safely, in a field at North Petherton, three
miles from Bridgewater, and eight from here. Mr. GRAHAM and
his companion were kindly received by H. Cox; Esq. in whose
field the descent took place; and, after taking some refreshment,
they set off in a chaise, and arrived in this town at eight o'clock,
where they were warmly greeted, and drswn.round the town in
their carriage, and then procured a post-chaise and four for Exeter,
which they reached at twelve o'cic.c.k at night, and were most joy.
fuUy received by those who were anxiously waiting their return.
Exeter is forty miles from where the balloon fell ; but from its
course in the last pan of the voyage, it is supposed they must have
traversed nearly sixty miles, which they accomplished in an hour
and five minutes.

NEW SOUTH WALES.

Sydney Gazettes to the 16th April have been received.
The new Charter, for the more efficient administration
of justice in the Colony, had arrived, with Chief Jus-
tice Pedde and the Attorney-General, J. Tice Gillibrand,
Esq. The Chief Justice was to enter on the duties of
his office, according to the full powers given him by
the new Charter, on the 10th of May. Captain White,
of the Medway (which vessel had been off and on the
coasts of Peru and Chili for nearly 20 months), disco•
vered, on the sth March, an island, which from its non-
appearance in any books or charts, he very fairly sup-
posed to be a new discovery. Its length from east
Ito west is about 20 miles) but its breadth could not be
so accurately ascertained, from the want of time for
esamination. The land was high, and it was six hours
before it disappeared. The latitude is 21 deg. 36 min.
south, and the longitude 159 deg. 40 min. west of
Greenwich. Its distance is about' 100 miles west and
by north from Mangeea Island; and Captain White
named it Roxburgh Idar.d. His Majesty's ship Tees,
Captain Coe, was expected to sail for New Zealand on
the 15th of April. She was to proceed to the assistance
lof his Majesty's colonial brig Elizabeth Henrietta, which
bad got on shore on Goulburn Island, to the south of
New Zealand. While at anchor in Roobooka Bay, on the
might of the 26th of February, she parted from her
chain cable, and lost two anchors in a violent gale. It
seems that the culture of, the vine in New South Wales
has begun to attract mote attention in that colony',
since the Society of Arts awarded the large silver use-
dal to Mr. Slazland for: wine, the production of New
Booth Wales.
These Papers say that the natives continue their otir
ehievem conduct. In March last they destroyed a Me,
belonging to Mrs. Collins,- at the Blue Hills, and killed

MEXICO.

From the Mexican Papers received yesterday we
make the following important extracts:
EXTRAORDINARY GAZETTE OF THE SUPREME GOVERN-

MINT OF Till MEXICAN CONFEDERATION.
" THURSDAY, JULY 1, 1824.
The Supreme Executive Power has just received the
following dispatches from the most Excellent Senor
Don Nicolas Bravo, General of the active army :
" Most Excellent Sir—Penetrated with the most pro-
found grief, which is not even alleviated by the consi-
deration that the public interests have been served, I
take up my pen to communicate to your Excellency
the termination of the political plots of this State, by
the complete victory obtained over the factious, who
had confederated in the city of Tepic, by the troops des-
tined to re-establish order, and to enforce obedience to
the laws ; this success is of the highest importance to
the consolidation of the legitimate Government, and of
our liberty and independence; but the satisfaction
which the hope of this happy result would produce in
my mind, is embittered by the reflection that it has
been purchased by the brave and innocent blood of two
Officers and five soldiers, whose existence has been
sacrificed to the public welfare, to their duty, and to
their country's honour.
" I also deeply deplore the death of a portion of the
troops, who, forgetful of their allegiance, or seduced
by the infamous Garcia, revolted in the abovernentioned
city against the public authorities, and betrayed the in-
terests of the State, to promote the designs of a cri.
urinal. You will find the details of this affair in the
report addressed to me by the Colonel Don Louis
Correa, dated the 23d, and which I enclose herewith,
for the information of the Executive Power.
" The leaders of the faction, Garcia, Rosemberg, and
others, who fell into the hands of the said Colonel, will
shortly be tried before a Military Commission, and
punished conformably to the laws, and as their great
crimes deserve. When I receive advice: that proceed-
ings have been adopted to this effect, I shall immediately
transmit them for your Excellency's information, and
for the satisfaction of an indignant nation.
" Goo protect your Excellency many years.
" Head-quarters, Guadalaxara, June 28,1824.
(Signed) 0 NICOLAS BRAVO.
" To the Most If.xceUent Senor the Minister of War."
The following is the document referred to io the
above dispatch :
" Report addressed to the Most Excellent Senor the General of the
Active Army, by the Senor Colonel Don Louis Correa, respect-
ing the recent events at Tepic, and the destruction of the rebel
faction in that city.
" Most Excellent Sir—This day, at eleven o'clock, I
approached tv'the vicinity of this city, (in conjunction
with the reinforcement tinder the orders of Colonel Don
Jose D. Morellon), and took up a position in from
thereof, at the Convent of LA Cruz. A deputation or
the Municipality came out to me, and in the course or

SONNET.

.--...1.N.--

When twilight's sombrous tints &et-spread the scene,
And Cynthia's silvery orb, in so!enin state,
Bides in the blue expanse, I hive to stray
Where the rich foliage hangs the darksonte beach
Over the dusky stream.—The eddying water
Plays round yon moss-grown stone, with trembling light,
While its soft plaintive murmurs meet the ear,
In dying cadence—From the mouldering tower,
Whose shadow rests tirm the broken wave,
Forth flits the leathern bat—Novi while I list
To the sett titikl'ng of the distant bell,
My soul attuted to harmony and peace,
Learns to forget its cares.—'Tis the still hour
Of sweet serenity and tranquil joy'.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.
Murdock O'Brian, a native of India, but of Irish parents, was
brought up before the Lord Mayor for begging in the streets. It
appeared that the Indian came to this country in 1810, and returned
in 1812, where he worked for ten years after in an indigo manu-
factory ; at that time he was deprived of his employ, and without
having time to make an appeal, was shipped for this country, and
landed without a halfpenny in his pocket.
The LORD Mayon said the case was one of great hardship, and
recommended the Indian to apply to the Directors, who would see
that justice was done.

SOUTH AMERICA.

The packet from Buenos Ayres has brought private
letters of a late date. The account of the defection of
-the Royalist General, Olaneta, in Peru, received lately
by way of Panama, is disproved by an article fiom
Potosi, which represents that General AS still in that
city.in the middle of May. This article states that'
Olaneta, in the exercise of- his functions as Viceroy of
Upper Peru, had appointed native Americans to the
Governments of Chuquisaca, Cochabamba, La Paz, and
Santa Cruz. It is not easy to divine his object in this
measure, which is certainly of an equivocal character,
!and may even be the prelude to a deign on his part of
erecting that portion of Peru into an independent Go.

And tho' we know that all is o'er,
No eye bath seen—no tongue tin tell

Oh were her tale of sorrow known,
'Twere something to the broken heart ;
The pangs of doubt would then be gene,
And Fancy's endless dreams depatt.

By which her doom we may explore ;
Wee only know she wild away,
And ne'er was seen or beard of more !

RANGOON.

Rangoon is the principal sea-port town in the Birman
empire. The streets of the town are narrow. The
houses are raised on posts from the ground ; the smaller
supported by bamboos, and the larger by stout timbers.
All-the Officers of Government, the most opulent suer-
chants, and persons of consideration, live within the
port; shipwrights, and people of inferior rank, inhabit
the suburbs; and one entire street, called Tackally, is
exchisively assigned to common prostitutes, who are
not permitted to•dwell within the precincts of the forti-
fications. Swine, which do not belong to any parti-
cular owner, ate suffesed to roam at large, and act as
common scavengers, devouring the filth under the
homes, and towering the parish contracts. Rangoon
may be called the Isle of Man of.lndia, having long
been the asylum of insolvent debtors from the different
settlements of India. It is crowded with foreigners of
desperate fortunes, who meet with a friendly reception
from the Birmans, and for the most part support them-
selves by carrying on a petty traffic. Here are to be
met with fugitives from all countries of the East, and
of all complexions Malabars, Moguls, Persians,
Parsees, Armenians, Portuguese, French, and English.
The members of this discordant multitude enjoy the
utmost toleration from the Birmaps, who have no
desire to make proselytes, and never discuss the reli-
gious opinions, nor disturb the ceremonies of any other
sect, provided they do not break the peace, or meddle
with their own divinity—Gandma.
The foundation of Rangoon was laid by the vim.
rious Alompra, the first of the present Birman dynasty.
And it is also named Dzangoon, whie.h.signifies victory
achieved. The Birmans being. like other inhabitants of
the East, fond of processions, scarcely a week passes in
which there is not a religions display at this place;
either a funeral of some person who leaves sufficient to
pay the expense of a pompoui public burning, or the
ceremony of admitting youths into the Convents of the
Rhabaans, on which occasions parents and friends spare
no expense. In the same street may be heard the solemn
'voice of the Mnezim, calling pious Islamites to early
prayers, and the bell of the Portuguese Chapel tinkling
a summons to Romish Christians. Processions pass each
otber without giving or causing, offence. If any. reli-
gious insult is offered to a Mussnlman, the offender is
put into the stocks; and if that has not the power of
calming him, he is bastinadoed into tranquillity.—Seel

Gazetteer. •

WINDSOR CASTLE.

The works at the Castle have proceeded during the past *MII
with the greatest activity. Considerable time Was at first ocestikfl
in the erection of temporary shops and sheds which are indispens.
able in an undertaking of this magnitude. These having been
completed, the labours of the whole body of workmen, amounting
to upwards of 400, are now directed to the clearing away the old
materials and preparing the new foundations. In several of the
apartments at the south-east angle, the men are now employed in
making the requisite openings for fire-places aid windows, two
essential requisites in which the old Castle was particularly defi-
cient. The new tower, of which his Idaassry laid the first stone,
is rising rapidly, and the arch for the new grand entrance, which
springs from this tower, is expected to be completed in a short
space of time. A discovery was made a few mornings since, which,
though not perhaps of equal importance with the subterranean
sally-port, yet affords far greater food for conjecture. The labourers
employed in lowering the foundation of one of the apartments on
the south side, while removing the earth came to a large oblong
flat stone. This was carefully removed, when a pit presented itself
to the view, about two feet square and four deep. In this were
several human bones, and the soles of two shoes; but from the
Itngth of time that has elapsed since they were deposited, no cer-
tain idea as to whose remains they are cau be formed. It is not
improbable that they may have been the victims of assassination,
or persons slain in a chance conflict, and thus hastily buried to
screen the perpetrators from discovery.

There is no truth in the paragraph in a Morning

in which it will be considered as independent."

This forenoon we received Jamaica Papers to the
25th of July. They state that twenty-three slaves had
been tried and condemned to death for the late attempt
at insurrection, twelve of whom were ordered for exc.
tution. The Supplement to the Jamaica Royal Gazette
of the 24th of July, states, that on the 14th of that
month six slaves, belonging to the Argyle Estate,
had been tried and condemned to be hanged, for re-
belliously endeavouring to obtain their freedom by
force. The following are extracts :

IROU THE JAMAICA COURANT.
KINGSTON, JULY si.

We stop the press to announce the conclusion of the
trial of the slaves concerned in the late conspiracy in
the Parish of Hanover. Twenty-three were found
Guilty, and sentence of Death was passed on twelve of
them, who were ordered to be executed yesterday. Mr.
Heath and Mr. Batty conducted the prosecution ; and
the Advocate-General and the Recorder of the City

defended the prisoners, who were convicted on the
clearest evidence.

It is said that the pirates Lately brought in by the
Hussar, 46, and Icarus, 10, are to be tried at the August
Surrey Assize Court, and that it has been decided on
not to convene a Court of Admiralty for this purpose.
It is with much regret we announce that the works on
Low Layton Estate, St. George's, have been completely
destto)ed by a fire. This unfortunate circumstance
originated by sparks blown from the chimney of the
low wine still, which lodged in the shingles of the
'curing-house, everything being excessively dry from
the long drought, and burned with such rapidity, that
all efforts to stop the flames were ineffectual. A strong
breeze, blowing at the time, caused them to communi-
cate with the trash-house, which was also consumed.
The mill•house machinery and mule-pen were with dif-
ficulty saved, although the former was several times
on fire.

JULY 23.—The Rapid touched at Laguira on the
11th instant, sailed the next day for Curacaa, where
she arrived on the 15th, and proceeded for this island

"CoLuarr's play of The Africans, ivas revived here
fast night, with the numerous attractions which. are
innwn to belong to this interesting piece. The cele-
brated
part of Henry Augustus Mug, was played by
the redoubtable Mr. Ltsvoar, who imparted to it all the
hummer of which the character is susceptible, and to
which Mr. LISToN's powers are so fully adequate. In
the comic song, By trade lam a turner, be was cla-
morously encored. h was given in his usual style of
irresistible humour. Selico, which used to be acted by
Mr. Youso, was taken on this occasion by Mr COOPER,
who went through the part with touching fidelity and
energy. The struggle between the pride of the war-
rior, and the filial gratitude and affection of a son. war
depicted with great truth and feeling. Miss BOYCE
gave peculiar interest to the part of 'Janina, as did' Mrs.
CHATTZELEY CO BeriSda.

MANSION—HOUSE.
A prang man of respectable appearance; who stated that he war
a native of -Brussels, and had been in the Preneh and 'Spanish ser„
vice, applied to the LORD MAYOR for relief. Ile htd .been in the
army of Napoleon from his 14th yest up to the dot, otalitlication,
and had risen from the condition of a private to that of au Officer
of some rank. He had fought. in several bhttles wlai6h.tetinitatcl
triumphantly for the British troops, and had received several
wounds. After the complete dethronenvent of Napoleon, he ac„
cepted the offer of general amnesty made by Louis XVIII. and
his education was almost wholly military, he thought he could rot
better employ himself than in the service of the hereditary monarch,
under whose banners he immediately placed himself ; but the ct,r
duct of France to the Spanish patrloti fully proved to him the ne_
cessity of abandoning a cause which was admitted to be a irws
and indefensible interference upon the part of the French Govern.
ment, and he not only separated himself from the army of the ie.
vader, but joined that of the invaded. Upon the terrnin:,ti,y,
the struggle of the Patriots, be was obliged to By, and 4. I:r iJrid
was the only country in which he could madder biniselt 'ate, he
came to it, but not without encountering great difficulties.
The LORD MAYOR said, be feared that as the applicant was a
French subject, there was no Society to which his cal? could
br
referred with any great hope of seeress. Mr. Ithwrinz, ii„,„tr.
of the Spanish Committee, would no doubt do all in his power
a person in such circumstances as had been described, as
cant's efforts in the cause certainly entitled hint to the warn of
consideration of tire Committee, if those efforts could be proved to
have been exercised.

The applicant was grateful for the reciption he had nw-: with
in his distress.

An elderly man, in ditty clothes, of a devout exterior and gloomy
physiugnorny, was brought before the LORD Marcos on a charge 44
having excited a disturbance. He had been in the habit, several
Sundays past, of going into Houndstlitch, and endeavouring to
convert the Jews. His preaching attracted large crowds. and at
length created such disturbances that it became requisite, In order
to preserve the peace, to take him into custody.
The preacher said that he had been twenty years since licensed
at Portsmouth to preach. lie was by trade a shoenral,r. it,,
name was Stanmore. The conversion of the Jews to the beliet of
the Gospeb was a thing which he had greatly at heart, and he 11,4
long and sorely laboured for the benefit of those ungodly and rt.
ailing people. His Intention, he assured Ms Lot ddilp, was good.
The Loan Maros said be had nothing to do with the defendria's
intentions. Those who undertook to convert the Jews must di, it
by peaceable means, and not raise mobs, and disturb others in .Le
exercise of their religious worship on the Sabbath.
