French Papets to the 24th inst. ,ared-the-Etoik of
Sunday, have reached us. in thpSitting of the Cham-
ber of Deputies on Friday last/the Indemaity Law was
brought back, with the amendments made by the Peers
and consented to by the Km. Lord GRANVILLE, the
British Ambassador in France, was preparing to give
a grand diplomatic dinner, at which M. Da VILLELE,
several of his colleagues in the Ministry, and the Am-
bassadors and Plenipotentiaries of foreign States were
to be present. The Journal der Dobai: remarks upon
this, that the English Ambassador had not attended
any of the diplomatic dinners given during the stay of
Prince DOTTERNICII in the French capital.

. We have received letters and papers from Bogota to
the 19th of February. The news of the victory of Aya-
cucho reached that capital only on the Bth. In the
dispatch from the PRESIDENT, which communicated
this great event to the Cohgtess, a letter from that il-
lustrious individual was included, in which he stated
that the last objecrof his ambition had been realized in
the complete emancipation of South America, and that
he required no greater proof of the acknowledgment of
his country for the part he had taken in this event,
than permission to resign his public situation, in order
that he might proceed to Europe, there to cement the
ties of friendship evin'ed by some nations for South.
America, and to combat the hostile opinions of its ene-
mies. An extraordinary meeting of the Colombian Con-,
gress was summoned for the 9th of February, for the
purpose of taking the PRESIDENT'S dispatches into con-
sideration. The reading of that part of his adstress'in
which he proposed to resign the Presidency was fol-
lowed by a profound silence. Signor Tortazs, one of
the Deputies, at length rose, and said that it would be
a national dishonour and a crime were the Congress to
admit the petition ; on which it was put to the vote,
and negatived without a single dissentient voice, amidst
fond cries from the Deputies and the spectators of
4g Viva d Libertador Presideate !" The effect was highly
imposing. These papers contain the official statement
of the loss sustained by the Colombian army on the 3d
and 9th December, which, as compared to the results,
was trifling, net much exceeding 600 men in killed and
wounded. They also contain a copy of an Address
to the troops by General Soca; which is animated
and modest.

The following is a copy :
" Tile CINIRAL•IN-CIIIET TO TEE UNITED ARMY.
" Sousuas!—On the field of Ayacucho you have brought to a
completion the enterprise most worthy of you. Six thousand war-
riors o 1 he Liberating Army have sealed with their constancy and,
. their blood the independence of Peru and the peace of America.l
Fourteen thousand Spanish soldiers, who for fourteen years have
• cottqlowed in this Republic, are now humbled at your feet.
" PERUVIANS I--You are the chosen of your country. Your chil-
dren, to the remotest generations of Peru, will remember your,
names with gratitude and pride.
" Counalinue !—From the Orinoco to the Deseguadero you have
marched in triumph. Two nations owe to you their existence.
Victory ban destined your arms to be the guarantee of the liberty
of the New World. (Signed) " ANT. JOSE DR SUCRE.
" Head• Quarters in Ayacucho, Dec. 10, 1524."

It is said that Sir ARCHIBALD CAMPBELL, in his pri-
•ate communications to his friends, subsequent to the
victory of the 15th of December, intimated an expecta-
tion that the Burmese would sue for peace. If they do
so, it will be the means of saving a great effusion of
blood ; for the late battles have shewn how much they
are likely to suffer by a protracted conflict, and even
the Burmese must be convinced, from the late engage-
=eats, how unable they are to cope with British troops
or British discipline. Indian warfare has seldom pre-
sented an instance of greater daring, or a more brilliant
achievement, than the late battle, when four British and
ten or eleven native battalions, reckoning, we presume,
on the outside, five or six thousand effective men, at-
tacked and totally defeated an army of fifty or sisty
thousand men, well provided with ordnance and the
munitions of war.

The proceedings in the House of Lords last night
were interesting, from the circumstance of his Royal
Highness the Duke of YORK presenting a Petition from
the Dean and Canons of Windsor, against the Catholic
Claims, and from the very decisive manner in which his
Royal Highness expressed his opposition to all farther
'concession to the Cathol'es.

Within these three last days the country has been
refreshed with mild and gentle rains, after the almost unprecedented
drought of more than tic weeks. Dry, however, as the weather
bas been, the wheat has got on and iiourishtei ; and a wet spring
would have been quite ruinous to the farmers, particularly as re-
spects their stock.

beautiful horses belonging to his Grace the Duke of NORTH/N.

EXHIBITION' OF_THICSOCIETY OF

ition was visited by her Royal Highness the Princess Augusta, her

Marchionesses of Stafford and Exeter ; the Earls of Carlisle,
Rase: Tanketville, Surrey, and.Brownlow ; Countesses of Essex
and Surrey ; Sir Charles and Lady Long ; several of the Foreign
Aenbassadors, &c. acc.
Yesterday this delightful Irshibidon was opened to the Public,
and was wiled the *ele of the day. The extended admiration
for Art, and the public encouragement which it receives, has ani-
mated this Society to great eserdoos ; very ample and interesting
proofs of this are displayed upon its walls, which furnish this year
many works of surpassing talent. We should do them great injus-
tice were we to attempt, front the mere cursory glance which can
be obtained in a crowded room, to pronounce upon their Individual
merits. When we mention the names of Robson, Barret, Fielding,
Dewint, Richter, Gartinean, Prout, Cristo% Mackenzie, and Miss
Scott, it is enough, for the present, to direct the public attention to
an Exhibition which furnishes specimens of genius in a branch of
the art which is peculiarly our own, and which is equalled in no
other country.

Friday morning, during the performance of the Farce
of Dead Aim at the Alnwick Theatre, the gallery gave way, and
descended, in a body, most majestically, with the gods and

from fright: a few trifling bruises were, however, all the injuries
which the fallen divinities sustained.

RONIZAT AT MR. SPANCeIt PERCIVAL'S.--Yesterday
infartnatioet was given at the Polite 01lice, Marlborough .street, that.
Mr. Perdval's house. in Lower Gresvenor.street, had been broken
into and robbed on Sunday night. Plank, the Chief Meer, went
to examine the premises yesterday morning, and found that animas
bad been obtained into the kitchen by cutting one of the pumas of
the door met with a knife, so that an arm could be introduced to
unlock the door, and draw back the bold. The back kitchen and
the parlour addravring-room had been ransacked, but the pro.
petty stolen was of inconsiderable nlne. A clock and'some trinkets
were carried ern: In the back kitchen a man was asleep when the
robbery was committed; and, the robbers perceiving two bolts on

The numbers, as we have before stated, who voted
on the Catholic Relief Bill, on ThursdAy last, were 609:
268 having voted for the Bill, and 941 against it. But
in this calculation were not included either the tellers
or those Members who paired off; that is, two must be
added to each side for tellers, and 22 to each side for
Members who paired off without staying to vote ; so
that the whole number.was no less than 557, which is,
we believe, the fullest attendance of Members since the
union of the two Parliaments. It is, within one, the
number of the old British House of Commons, previous
to the addition of the 100 Irish Members.

The cottage of S. A. Futzwoon, Esq. of Hillington
Grove, Middlesex, was totally consumed by fire on
Saturday night, together with the greater part of the

was so much burnt, that be is not expected to survive.

fore feet, and fell forward. The Lady's lace was much
cut, and the blood flowed copiodsly. She was conveyed
away in a Gentleman's carriage. -The horse, a valuable
one, had one of his knees broken.

The Mexican Paper El SA of the 18th of February,
contains the conclusion of the discussion in the Congress,
on the report of the united Committees on Finance anti
Mining appointed to consider the expediency of re-im-
posing the old duties on the produce of the Mines. In
this Report the Committees recommend to the Congress
that no increase shall take place in those duties. and it
was confirmed by that Assemblyb by a majority of d. 5 to
two. Mexico continues too tranquil to furnish any po-
litical events of the smallest importance. We subjoin
an extract from a private letter
" Mums FgaIIUARY 9.
" I promised some observations upon politics. I look round, ac-
cordingly, for something to say in this way ; but really everything
seems so quiet and orderly, that there is dillbsolty in finding a sub-
ject of particular remark. The only ranks?), movement we bear of
is the intended embarkation of 1,000 men for Campeachy. in this
hthere is bathing more, thin that a new Commandant-General has
been appointed to that State (these are confederated Stites, it must
be remembered): these 1,000 men compose his ileginirnt, and
therefore"go with him. Santana remains civil Governor, and Mora
now the Commandant-General. I have attended the meetings of
Congress a few times; but the place where iv:Sessions are held is
so large, that the reverberation of sound, when any of the Deputies
are speaking, makes it vsefy dilikeolt to bear dietinctly. liverytkleig
seems to be regulated with great decorum."
