ROUSE OF COMMONS.

To-day being appointed for a Select Committee of the Hbuse on
due Huntingdon Election, the &masa& proceeded at the usual hour
to count the House, and there being but 59 Members instead of
the number usual on such occasions, 100, the business was adjd.

It appears by the Papers last received from Buenos
A y les, that preparations were making by the Buenos
Aytean troops to pass the Uraguay. ft,,is also stated,
that a slight popular commotion had taken place in
Chile, in consequence of the banishment of the Bishop
of SANTIAGO. The National Guard behaved with great
promptitude in quelling the tumult. One of these
Papers contains a Proclamation of ___RntivAn to the
Authorities of Upper Peru, dated from Chuquisaca, the
st of January, announcing that he is under the neces-
sity of proceeding to Lima, to open the Congress of
Peru in February, and to give an account of the opera-
tions of his last campaign. It is said that he will return
to Upper Peru in May.

following: exclaim from Manta Papers artless
st in date NM these published yesterday, but possess
interest, patticulatly on aecoont of the light thrown
on the situation of affairs in Ara, immediately previous
to the breaking of the armistice, and the disposition
which the Burmese appear to have entertained respecting
the negociation t---

PROME,.

By dispatches received from the head•gnarters of the
army at Prome, it appears that throughout the month
of October, the Burmese had manifested symptoms of
a dispositi.m.to renew hostilities, several bands of
marauders having crossed the line of demarcation,
ostensibly uithnut the authority of their chiefs, and
plundered villages on our side. •The villagers them-
selves, in several instances, defended their property suc-
ce.sfully against the attacks of these banditti, and small
detachments sent from the head-quarters prevented
their ravages being carried to any serious extent.
Some correspondence passed between Sir A. Camp-
bell and the Kee Woongee on the subject, when the
latter promised to exert his best endeavours for check-
ing these excesses, and positively denying that they
were committed with his sanction cu knowledge.

On the 24th ult. Major. G•meral Sir A. Campbell
wrote to the Kee Woongee to inquire whether the Eng-
lish prisoners had been brought down from Ma, accord-
ing to agreement, and also whether he had learnt the
result of the reference made to the Court of Ava, after
the close of the late conferences. An answer was received
from the Kee Ooongee and Lamian Woon on the 29th
ult. which contained the required information. After
taking credit to themselves for sincerity and fair deal-
ing, and accusing the British authorities of insincerity
and'breach of faith, in bringing armed sepoys, ships, and
boats to Rangoon. and crossing troops from Cheduba
to Sandowey, which shewed no wish or desire for peace,
the writers say—" If you sincerely want peace, and the
re-establishment of our former friendship, according to
Burman custom, empty your hands of what you have,
and then, if you ask, it will be on friendly terms with
you, and forward a petition for the release of the Eng-
lish prisoners, and send them down to you. However,
after the termination of the armistice between us, if you
shew any inclination to renew your demands for money
in payment of your espenses, or any territory from us,
you are to consider our friendship at an end. This is
Burman custom."

By intelligence received at the same time from •arious
quarters, it appears certain, that the voice of the King of
Ava himself is loud for war; and that he has issued
reiterated orders to the Burmese commanders to attack
the British army immediately.
The Kee Woongee is represented as being much
grieved at these orders, saying that they ti would cost
him his life; but it was better so, than that the lives of
thousands of the poor people should be sacrificed."
The Burmese army, it is reported, are now burning the
wood of the stockade as firewood, and no notice is taken
of it by the chiefs. The King's half-brother has con-
structed a stronger stockade at lialoon, and it is sup-
posed that a stand will be made by the enemy at that
place. Our troops are to be put in motion as soon after
the expiration of the armistice as the state of the roads
in advance of our position would admit.
Nov. 22.—We are sorry to innounca the deatlrof
C4ptain Alexander, C. B. of his Majesty's ship Aligator.
This gallant officer expired at Rangoon on the morning
of the 6th instant.
Our letters from Prome mention that the Burmese
upbraid us with breach of the armistice, in bringing in
fresh troops, and in moving forward some corps. A
letter of the 29th ult. from Rangoon, states that 240 of
the Madras European Regiment had marched the day
before to Pegue. Whether the allusion is made to this
move, or to that under Brigadier• General M'Creagh,
we cannot say, but it is scarcely to be supposed that
the enemy have been idle during the armistice.
We are sorry to hear that the Boadicea had suffered
a good deal from cholera since reaching Rangoon,
having lost four officers and several men.

STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Consols, which left off yesterday at 791 to 1, opened at the same
price this morning, and soon after reached 791 1, since which they
have been done at 80. This being settling day in the Consols, the
chief bustle in the Market is making up Accounts, which up to
the present time seem to go off well. As yet no failures are men-
tioned, although one took place yesterday, but It was not of great
extent: upon the whole, the Market appears firm, with a prospect
of a further rise, as the Deer Account is immense.
In the Foreign Market scarcely a bargain is doing.

By the arrival of a Brazil mail we have received
the Diario Ilussinense of Rio de Janeiro and Bahia
Papers to the 14th, February. It appears, by the latter
that there had been some tumults at Bahia between the
Portuguese and Brazilians, on the publication of the

isrUciastiatitin of the King of AIRTVGAip recognikingl
Brazilian independence, The Bahia Papers from thel
23d December to the otb of January, which should con-
tain an account of the disturbinces, ire misting, but
the Mario Flumineme of Rio, where the news had been
received, in the No. for the 90th January, states that
the disorders took place on the 29th, 30th, and 31st of
January; and says, " On the 29th December there was
a dispute between a Portuguese and a serjeant horn at
Bahia, Who received some blows from the Portuguese;
there were afterwards some partial disorders, which
continued three days : five or six persons, Brazilians or
Portuguese, were killed, but the means taken by the
Civil and Military Governors had entirely restored
tranquillity." The Diario of Bahia, of the 12th Jan-
contains a very long letter to the Eiitor on the subject
of the disturbance, which occupies two and a half
pages. The object of the letter is to shew that there is
no cause for alarm, and the writer, who speaks of the
event as one well known, says, " What does this mean,
blows, deaths, wounds with spears, groups of Portu-
guese all armed, molesting the peaceful citizens, and
alarming families witht.ut respect for the authorities;
the shops shut, the necessaries of life dear! a wicked
murmur against our independence, and above all
the scanty illumination and want of respect to the
festive proclamations on the birth of an heir to the
Crown of the Empire. What means this ? If the
Ministers of Portugal make their laws as they like,
does it follow that Brazil is undone ? There is a great,
but certainly unnecessary, alarm among the Brazilians,
because King Jon* VI. has not only reassumed the title
of Sovereign of Brazil, which he lost in 182-2, but even
the title of Emperor."
The Rio de Janeiro Papers contain an account of the
departure of the EMPEROR and EMPRESS of Brazil—the
Proclamation issued on the occasion--a Decree, ap-
pointing a Plenipotentiary to the Congress at Panama,
&c. They also state that SENOR ANTONIO MANOEL
CORREIA DA CEMARA, Consul and Political Agent
from Brazil, had been received with extraordinary
distinction in a public audience by the supreme Dic-
tator of Paraguay. The following are extracts :
