- RAMSGATE, MARCH 15.

The news of Sir WILLIAM CURTIS having gained
his Election for the City of London, found its way
here at least two hours before the arrival of post, by
a messenger who had been dispatthed to meet the
Mail at Canterbury; and it affords us much satisfac-
tion to observe the very general good feeling evinced
towards the worthy Baronet on his success. Smiling
faces, of which Sir WILLIAM professes himself to be
so great an admirer, are to be seen in great abund-
ance throughout the Town ; and a dinner, upon a
very extensive scale, in honour of the occasion, is ar-
ranging for to-morrow, at the Albion Hotel, at which
the principal townsfolks will be present ; and the
health of Sir WILLIAM (who is now Chairman of the
Harbour Committee, and has for a great number of
years had a residence amongst us) will not be forgot
to be drank to-day, by many of the inhabitants. The
Harbour displays a profuse quantity of colours, as
does the Town, from one end to the other, present
ing a most cheering sight to the numerous friends of
' the loyal and worthy Baronet.

MR. HVNT.—A letter from Manchester, dated
March 13, says—" Hunt entered town, on his way
from Preston, this afternoon ; he was conducted by
a large nob through the Market-place, down Old
Milgate, Cateaton-street, and Fennel-street, to the re-
sidence
of Chapman. He attempted to address the
populace from the parlour window, but that beisr,
Iv
toe low, he went to the chamber window, and as this
scarcely admitted sufficient room for the body of a
man, he thrust his head and one arm through, and
the following is pretty neatly what he said s

Election there is going on most favourably. I am going to
York : I suppose 'you knob for what, (' Yes,') don't ye ?--

butchers of Peterluo, and I have no doubt but I shall ►e able

Copy of a Letter from Captain WARTEmt, of the ship Ever-

February, 11iM>.

" GENTLE3IE—I have to inform you, that early on the morn-
ing of the 11th instant, I fell in with the long-boat of the ship
Augusta, of Dumfries, containing the Master and sixteen of the
crew; we fortenauly succeeded in getting then: all on board,
althongh blowing a beaYy gale, the sl4 being at the time tinder
a reefed foresail and mizen staysaiL They quitted their stip
thirteen days %revious to our falling in with them, they were in
great distress and had lc* five of their number while in the
boat ; they report their ship being a complete wreck and water-
logged. I am in hopes cf falliug in with some vessel homeward-
bound who will give them a pAsszge. We were, on the noon
following, in lark 55. ll• N. and long.. 14. 32. W.

Yesterday a Court of Directors was hel d at tle

The Staff of Ireland is Hbout to undergo a consi-
derable alteration : all the General Officers with the-
exception of Sir EDWARD PAGET, and two MajoiL
Generals, are to be changed:

We have received advices froth Calcutta tb the
beginning 'of October. They confirm the former
accounts of the 'expulsion of the Dutch from Palcm.
bang, with the loss of -117 men and two officers'
killed. The Malays had a battery of thirty pieces
of cannon, which the Dutch attempted to storm, but
were repulsed. His I3urmah Majesty, the King of
Ava, died on the sth of June, having reigned thirty-
eight years, and was succeeded by the Prince Regenl
his grandson ; the body of the late King was burned
on the funeral pile by the hands of the Princes, and
his ashes placed in the Royal cemetery, inclosed in
an urn. The present King having reason to fear
his own brother, 6,-1 Prince of Tauonoo, whose
daring spirit led him to form the design of sexing
on the throne, had him arrested, together with the
whole of the children, grand-children, and the rest
of the family, who were afterwards put into red
sacks, and thrown into the sea, a death reserved by
the laws of the country for the Royal Family alone !
The Prince Proue, uncle of the King, and who was .
also leagued in the conspiracy, was tortured on the
rack, and afterwards strangled while in prison._
prince Leh Gain, whose elder brother, Mohe-ning,
is the son-in-law of Raggoon, was likewise executed
as a conspirator. One of the Prime Ministers of the
Governor of the Western Provinces was also pu-
nished with death, for the same offence. The ritint
ber of the principal personages attached to the cause
and interests of the late Princes, who suffered death
for their attachment to them, is said to be about
14.00; and it is confidently believed, that from 10 to .
15,000 men of the lowest class •have shared the
same fate. The property of Prince Tauonoo,
which has been confiscated by the Royal authority,
amounted to about 1,848,000 sicca rupees; the
property of. Prince. Proue is stated to have been more
than that of Prince Tauonoo, and, by order of the
King, was distributed amongst the army.
A Prochmatiba was issued at Madras on the llth

He was the eldest legitimate son of the late Nabob.
A letter from Stockholm, dated liebi 20, says?—
" Some foreign Papers mention, with certain .afFecta-
don, a tote presented by Lord t3TRANGIFO RD to t 1,70
Swedish Government, and seem to imply that it
had produced a strong: siniation. The het is, that
this very note had no political 'object in view, but -
merely concerned a lawsuit between an English mer.
chant and some Custom-house _Officers in Norway,
which the KING has ordered to be carried; without
delay, before the competent Court, to be decided
according to law. In, this case, as in all other nei of
ciations, in which Lord tirnanosono has been em-
ploye,l, this Minister has always united to a natural
zeal for the interests of his countrymen, the most €o;..s
ciliatory spirit and distinguished urbanity. lie will
soon leave this country, regretted by the Court, and
by all who had the pleasure el his acquaintance.
