SAINT JAGO, NOVEMBER 6:

By the Fan Fan we have received letters and news.
papers to the 18th ult.
On the 6th ult. fourteen vessels arrived from Guaya-
qui' at Panama, to transport the five thousand men
which compose the divisions of Venezuela and Magda-
lena. The same day they sailed from Guayaquil, news
ariived that the Spanish man of war Asia, and brig
Hercules, had entered the port of Callao from Cadiz.
This tardy and inconsequent assistance has arrived out
of time, as the greatest part of Peru is in possession of
the Colombians.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1824.

lIINOCZNri. DAY.—HOLIDAY.
CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
This being a Holiday at the Bank, Stock Exchange, and Foreign
Market, the Royal Exchange is numerously attended by the
Brokers, but not much business doing.

Consols are 952 buyers, but scarcely anything doing in them.
Colombia 89j, Mexican 721 1 73. These two South American
Securities are on the rise, owing to the report of the Patriots hat-
ing entered Lima ; but on inquiry it is found, that it was the Eng-
lash Marines who entered, to protect British property.

A private letter is said to have been received in the
City from Lisbon, of the 16th December, stating that
some misunderstanding has taken place between Sir
WILLIAM A'Count and the Portuguese Govern-
intent; the writer, who is evidently an alarmist of no
common order, says the Hi itish fleet is under orders to
sail at an hour's notice ! Had it not been a holiday
we should have expected this letter was intended to
operate on the funds.

The French Papers -of Friday and Saturday have
reached us. There has been already a trial of strength
between the Opposition and the Ministerial Party, in the
French Chamber of Peers, on the occasion of nominating
the Members of the Bureau, and the Commission for the
Address. The Opposition were left in a decided mi-
nor ity, having only 50 votes in one instance, and 61 ih
the next; whilst there were 91 and 107 for the Minis-
try. The candidates proposed by the minority were
M. de CrIATIACBRIAND (the ez-Minister), the Arch-
bishop of PARIS (whose speech destroyed M. de Vito.
LELIIPS project for the reduction of the rentes), M. de
Ler.mr,Count Mout,and Baron PAsQutzu,ex-Ministers.
--The Commission finally elected consists of the Duke
MATHIEU MorcrmortaNcy (the Verona Plenipotentiary,
and Ultra ex-Minister for Foreign Affairs); the Duke
de BRISSAC ; Viscount BONALD (raised to the Peerage
by the influence of M. CHATRAWIRIAND); the Mar-
quis of PASTORET: and the Duke de CADORR. The
Peer at the head of this list obtained no less than 109
votes out of 167. In the Chamber of Deputies, M.
RAVE; who makes himself agreeable to any Ministry,
and who seems as perfect a fixture as any of the co-
lumns of the Chamber, obtained again the greatest
number of votes for President.
The following is an extract from a private letter from
a Correspondent in Paris:—

Pasts, Dec. 23.
" The weather in Paris is exceedingly mild, but moist
and rainy ; the rose-trees are, in many places, in full
bearing ; the thermometer in general about eight or
ten degrees of Reaumur. There has been only one
night of slight frost this winter as yet; and France 3r
pears, in general, to have been wholly exempt from the
numerous calamities that have visited other parts of the
world of late.
" The Chamber of Deputies was opened yesterday.
The King's speech was very short, but it seems to have
given universal satisfaction throughout Paris. The
King read it with much force and effect, but evident)y
a good deal agitated and affected at times.
A new Company is about being formed in Poi!,
the object of which is to clean the streets of the Capital,
t thing much wanted indeed at this moment. The
3oulevards, the finest quarter of Paris, is literally. at
'resent, a canal of mud, and does not appear to have
f Teen cleansed .ince the King's entry into the city."
