The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said
that the printing would occasion a delay. It must,
however, be previously reported; and as the Esti-

order the Estimates to be printed, instead of the Re-

CHILL •
TO THE EDITOR OF THE StAR.
Sra—lnasmuch as public faith is interested in the subject of
%it letter, I hope you will have the goodness to insert it in your
JournaL I have observed in the Maryland Cosar of the 23d of
September, 1818, a Proclamation, by Luis Ausy, which entitles
him " Commander-in-Chief of the forces destined to act against
New Granada, in the name of the Confederated Republics of
Buenos Ayres and Chili." In the first place, it ought to be
knewn that Chili and Buenos Ayres are not Republics so con-
federated, UM two 'States, absolutely independent, and with-
obe anj other bond than that which they imposed on them-
whet by the Treaty of the sth of February, in order to aid
tfic Inhabititats of Peru against the Government of Spain.—
In the second place, Chili has not intrusted forcei of any de-
scription to Luis Aury, nor to any other man for the Ruipose of
acting agidnii Ile* Granada ; neither is Luis Aury at present,
nor has he ever bees, an Officer of the State of Chili. Iqthe
third place, Chill hes not hitherto authorized any person to ai-
rline the denomination Wbiols sppears in that Proclamation.—?
lastly; the policy of the Government of Chili is Utterly opposed
to the estahlistutent of those corsairs, 'who, under the pretext of
molesting the Spaniards, may commit outrages against other
.gs. Chili has only a well-regulated national marine ; and Luis
Amy is not among the number of the mariners of Chili.
The author of that Proclamation has,inferedly, been guilty of
an unwarranted assumption of authoent from the Government
of Chili to act against New Granada ; that Government will, in
a short time. publicly falsify the supposed commission of Aury..
in the meanwhile, I who, until the 50th of October last, held the
)linistry of Grace and Justice, and of Foreign Affairs, in that
S:ate, can and ought to give my assurance, that whatever is
tt.,:ed in that Proclamation with regard to the Government of
Chili is false ; and I make this declaration, both to vindicate that
Cuvernment in public opinitin, and to prevent the evils which
accrue to some individuals of other nations from so false a
tteement—l am, Sir, your obedient servant,

THE MEETING QN thINSLET MOOR.
We find in a Leeds Paper, received this morning,
a full Report of the proceedings at the second Meet-
ing at Hunslet Moor, on Monday last, of which our
private advises enabled us' two dayi ago to lay a
pretty ample account before our Readers. It con;
curs in every material respect with the view taken
by our Private Correspondent. Among the Resolve'
tions adopted, and which are now published at length;
the following may be safely quoted, and as safely,
recommended for the truths it contains :
" We believe the real cause of the distress which we now
fer, has originated in a base and profligate expenditure neibie
public money, which has involved the nation in WOO minima et
debt ; and which has increased taxation to such an extent as hal
nearly totally destroyed our manufactures and comtheree ; and
we are perfectly satisfied that nothing but a recurrence to
prld-
ciples of rigid,economy, can either put In end to our own suf-
ferings, or save our country from ruin."
The speech of the emissary, Pima, of which a
teral report is given, contains abundant matter to jets.
tify the disgust which our private letter informed es
it had excited among the better disposed part of
'.hearers.—" Our progeny," exclaimed he, " shall in
after ages proclaim to the world, that we have con-
quered our meet powerful foes—that we have brought '
theni low in the dust before us—that we have gained
a completeeadical Reform, and thoroughly purged,
one of the most corrupt and loathsome Constitutions
in the *orld,. without blood, and without the sword."
Now is your time. Say not, ye are Reformers,
bi

put prove yourselves to be such by joining the Union.
Why stand you still between two opinions? Have
you not waited long enough ? Remember, he who is
not for Us Is against us."--" Remember the brave but
ill-fated Wat Tyler. lie was no politkian; yet had it
not been for treachery, he would have made Eng-
land's proud King grant his request;" &c. Sce. -
Our Readers will be happy to observb from the
letter of our Private Correspondent which we subjoin,
that the business of obtaining redress for the suer-
ings of the working classes (to which every humane
mind must 'feel sensibly alive) is in Leeds at least
likely to be taken out of the hands of such incendiaries
a: this Mr. PETRI. From the liberal character of the
present Chief Magistrate of Leeds, no doubt is enter-
tained of his giving his sanction to any Meeting
which has a view to real practital good :

•• LEEDS, JUNE 24.
ei The Resolution passed at the late Meeting on
Henslet Moor, for calling a Public Meeting of the
most respectable Inhabitants of the District, to take
into consideration the deplorable situation of the un-
employed workmen, was brought forward with the
laudable view of taking the business out of the im-
proper hands into which it had got. 'As the Requi-
sition Will be both numerously and respectably signed,
'there is no doubt but the worthy Magistrate will
Comply with the prayer of it; and that every possible
means *ill be suggested and tried to alleviate the
present state of distress. It is quite certain that re-
lief of some kind or other must be afforded for
should the presedt state of things exist only twelve
months more, the major part of our small Manufac-
turers and Dealers must become paupers. This town;
the HEART of the most populous and wealthy mann.;
facturing and mercantile district in the kingdom, ex-
hibits at present a melancholy reverse of what it once,
was i instead of the bustling activity and smilingsoun-
tenances of workmen, well paid, clothed and fed, the
eye is constantly pained at beholding in every corner
pf:jhe towit and suburbs, groupes of wretched, half-
famished objects, sighing over their lost situation,
and comparing it with days gone by. The yard and
avenues of the Workhouse likewise (twice a week)
present an overcharged picture of human misery,
being crowded with out-door Poor, who• attend at
these stated times, to receive the miserable pittances
doled out to them by the cold hand of parochial
charity !
" The tide of einlgration from this district has
suddenly veered from North to South America and
many individuals and families (some of them pos-
'sessed of considerable priiperty) are making prepara-
tions to take their departure to that New Land qf
Promise. Several ships have, arrived at Liverpool,
during the present week, freighted with Soldiers and
Emigrants from Ireland add other parts ache United

fitting out at Liverpool, for the express purpose of,
conveying Emigrants, &c. from this part of the
