In consequence of the Colombian Document which appeared
in the Papers this mottling, a general panic took place in the
Colombian Bonds, and the result was a fall of 4 per cent. in the
above Stock; neverth,less, it is thought as certain, by the first
Brokers on 'Change, who have been to examine the Colombian
Contt act, at Messrs. Pueerts', that it is a bortnfide good one, and
the signature is undoubtedly that of Ihravait. It is also aster-
tattled that the Colombian Document must have been published
t. re the abor. Government knew of the Loan being con-
tractcd for In London ; al:d it is still further imagined, that the
whole is a maw:turn: to deixeciate the Colombian Stock, of
which it 11, supposed that in a day or two great advantage will
Uc taken by persons who will buy it up.
Very little business has been done in the market up to this
hour; and all foreign securities are rather heavy.

VORZIGN MARKET.

The panic still continues in Colombian Bonds, and they have
fallen to 91; and New Spanish Bonds are also dull, at 74, for

the end of the Month. A set of desperate speculators are taking
advantage of the present panic in Cotombidu Securities, and are
selling in small quantities, with considerable publicity, while
they are secretly purchasing larger quantities, at the reduced
prices they have occasioned. The whole of the Securities are heavy.

Qhe French Papers of Saturday have been received,
but they contain no intelligence of importance. On
the 18th, the KING, so far from being ill, as has been
confidently reported, was well enough to transact
business with NI.VILLEte, and afterwards to entertain
at dinner Ike Duchess of BERRI. The VICAR-GENE-
RAL of Poitiers has contradicted the report of General
BERTON having refused the aids of religion on the
day of his execution : he states that he died as a
Christian, and instead of treating the Ecclesiastics
with indifference, shewed himself grateful for their
attentions. He adds, that just before his ascending
the scaffold, he became so feeble, and so pallid, that
be could scarcely be recognized. These Papers con-
tain a report that General MINA had completely
touted the forces of Baron d'EaoLLEs, who had taken
refuge at Ax, in France,. with a very small number
Officers of his Staff. They pretend that this event
certain, but quote no authority and assign no date.
-,u Mua,tr, the eldest son of the late King
is stated to basic obtained from the Ans.

The Paris journals announce the atrival in London
from Malta of General CARASC9SA, War Minister at•

hibition of the performance of John Bull by the Eng-

demand for it, and the Comedy has accordingly been
translated by aM. CHATZAIINRIP. -The Journal des

This forenoon we received intelligence from Bay-
onne to the 14th instant, one day later than our ar-
rivals of yesterday. They contain some further details
of the movements of the Constitutional and Insurgent
forces, but deny that MINA had gained a victory
over the rebels at Berga, as had been reported. The
accounts from Madrid are to the Bth. They state
that the report of Colonel TABUENCA and other Offi-
cers, taken prisoners by the Royalists, haling been
infamously shot by them, excited extreme indigna-
tion in the Capital ; groups of people assembled in
the streets and wished to wreak their fury on the
state prisoners in confinement there. " Death to the
Serviles," cried some—" Let us kill them in the pri-
sons," exclaimed others, " since the Judges will not
'do justice !" A group of 100 persons, among whom
some Communeros were observed, collected at the
Puerta del Sol about eight in the evening, threaten-
ing to go to the state prison, while another more
considerable body was hovering about. • The Autho-
rities, how ever, doubled the guard, and ordered the
Commanding Officer to repel force by force. Patrols
were ordered to disperse the groups, which they did,
and tranquillity was restored. This was on the sth.
On the .6
di the Municipality issued a Proclamation,
which had a very good effect. It called upon the
true friends of liberty to be on their guard against
perfidious intrigues tending to mislead some ardent
and inconsiderate Patriots to the commis ion of ex-
cesses which would sully their noble c ;use.

The Espectador of the 6th says, that the; e is reason
to doubt the truth of the murder of Taßorsg.t aad
the other Officers, as letters of a very recent date
from Babastro do not mention it.

General TORRIJOS, and not VILLACAMPA, is to SOC.
ceeJ ESPINOSA.

The Spanish Government had received very ener-
getic complaints from the Prov inces, especially Biscay,
Navarre, Arragon, and Catalonia, respecting the ex-
cesses committed by the troops, which often treat the
inhabitants as enemies. The Mini,ter of War has
sent a circular letter to the Militat y Commanders,
couched in stiong terms, to make them responsible
for the excesses committed by their soldiers towards
his Majesty's peaceable subjects.

The Editor of the Journal, the Indicador, has been
publicly attacked, and seriously wounded, by an Ac-
tor of the name of CA§ANovA, -whom he had offended
by an article of theatrical criticism.
General Vives, who is aprointed Governor of the
Havannah, will have both the civil and military
authority.

The Government had determined to send the late
Political Chief, SAN MARTIN, into exile to Majorca,
to withdraw him from the fury of his implacable
enemies ; but he has been arrested, and sent to the
State prison. It is reported that the arrest of the Late
Ministers is resolved on by the Martilleros, and that
they may not escape from the capital, they are strictly
watched, especially Messrs. MARTINEZ DE LA ROSA
and PASIBLEY.

The late news from the provinces of Catalonia, &c.
have given great satisfaction, and dispelled the alarms
that were before felt.

Dutch Papers, to the 19th inst. reached us this
forenoon, but their contents are of little importance.
Accounts..from Batavia, to the 18th May, state, that
the Government of the Dutch East India territories
has resolved on a new issue of the paper currency to
the amount of a million of India florins. The ac-
counts from the settlements in the island of Borneo
were perfectly satisfactory. The cholera mot b:,s had
not shewn itself at Pontiaank and Sambas since Ja-
nuary. The Governor-General had received an au-.
tograph letter from his Majesty, expressing, in the
most flattering terms, his satisfaction with the bravery
of the land and naval force in the expedition against
Palembang.
A letter from Verona'says, that the Crown Prince
of Austria, Prince Leopold of Naples, and the Arch-
duchess his consort, and the Duke of Calabria, are
expected in that city.'

An article from Turin, of the 10th October, states,
that recent letters from the Morea say that the situa-
tion of the Greeks becomes daily worse, and that in
a single action, near Napoli di Romania, they bad
left 5,000 men in the field of battle.

A Leeward Islands Mail has arrived with letters
from St. Thomas's• to the ISth of September. The
only topic of the least interest in them relates to the
state of affairs on the Spanish Main, where General
MORALES) lately reported to have been killed, is de-
scribed as again in action, and planning a new ex-
pedition against the Columbian territory. After his
defeat on the 11th of August, in the neighbourhood'

supposed,
racoa, of trite 31st of August,seceiied at St. Thomas's,
distinctly state that the views of the Spanish Com-
mander were directed against that place, and NI
great amount of property deposited there for the traffic
of the interior, belonging to foreign merchants, caused
some apprehensions for the result to be entertained.
There esisted, however, according to the best opinions,
no ground for serious alarm, Maracaibo being thoughtl
secure against attacks more formidable than that
meditated by MORALES. BotivA it's return to Cit-
twos from the south was anxiously looked for, to
whose personal energy it was believed Columbia
must be indebted for the exclusion of the last rem-
nant of the Spanish forces.

The Bridge-street Association had' yesterday a tri-
umph, if the conviction of an individual whom they
have steadily pursued for a course of two years can
be called one. It is, however, a triumph which no
honest man will envy them. We are no advocates
for the licentiousness of the Press ; but think both the
hazard and the penalties already sufficient, without
their being aggravated by a conspiracy which pos-
sesses the means of ruining any individual on whom
they fasten. Flow far the Bridge-street Association
may have succeeded in doing this with the Book-
seller, DOLBY, who was yesterday convicted of libel,
we know not : the proceedings against him, we un-
derstand, have been most artfully conducted, and
the expenses enormous; and that his wife was
even hurried to a premature grave, in consequence
of the way in which her husband was harassed
and persecuted by this misnamed Constitutional
Association ;—a Society which has been well de-
scribeJ by the writer of an article in-the Investiga-
tor, on Licentious Productions in high life, " whose
teal object was to support a particular set of men
and measmes, by prosecuting all who should give
too I.,,reat license to their tongues or their pens,
in conamming them, sshilst full impunity was al-
, lowed to those in like •manner offending for their
support—an innovation destructive of the very
insti-
tutions it professed religiously to support."

No answer has been returned to the request of Sir

lint General waited upon the Director of Police og•
Tuesday, and received the order to depatt in tsfiknty:
four houti,'he'iltatitisined that being here on business;
he would have some settlement to make with regard
to it; that being here with his family, he would be
obliged to make some arrangements with respect to
his children; and that Lady Wilson being infirm
and indisposed, could not travel at night without
danger, of be left behind him without great anxiety
therefore requested chat, instead of Wednesday
night, his time for preparation might be extended to

indulgence, and had in his note requested permissian
