SAXONY. Aeons: 6.

The first Diet of the Principality of Schwaxburg
Rudolstadt, which was convoked in 1821, is now ter-
minated, alter sitting the six years fixed by the law.
The Government has announced this, and at the same
time signified that the Prince is satisfied with the pro-
ceedings of the late Diet, and that the Deputies have
fulfilled all the expectations that could seasonably be
entertained. In the course of the six years, 100,647
dollars of the public debt have been paid, and several
improvements in the Legislation have been made. Due
notice will be given of the convocation of a new Diet.
Prince Henry LXXIL of Reuss Eberdorffi considet-

ing the present unfavourable state of manufactures an '
agriculture, has been induced to excuse his subjects, for
this year, from the payment of three instalments of the
military tax.

'e staled at the time we announced the ratification
of the Treaty of Peace with the Burmese, that it had
been preceded by two da)s severe fighting. Letters
have been received from Calcutta, dated the sth of
March, from which it appears, that on the 30th of Ja•
nuary a force, consisting of about fide hundre,l of the
enemy, posted at a !slue called Watamachoete, were
charged by a party of the Governor General's Guard,
commanded by LievtenintsTnANT, with great vigour

and success. About fifty of the Burmese were sabred
or shot, and amongst them one of their chiefs, named
MorfroNGao, and the remainder were quickly diSpersed,
The 9th of February was a fatal day to the enemy.
though the Burmese evidently intended to give a final
blow to the English, and deci.'e the contest. For this
purpose they quitted their stockades and boldly formed
on the plain, in order of battle, but they were soon
attacked by the fence under Sir ARCHIBALD CAMPBELL,
at PAghamew, which was captured with forty pieces of
cannon and ninety jingulls. Sir A. CAMPBELL with a
small escort, is state) to have been at one time com-
pletely surrounded, but the enemy were speedily put to
the rout, and about five hundred of them were either
killed or drowned, being driven into the River at the
point of the bayonet. Our loss was extremely trifling.

Accounts from Pais state, that the six millions re-
cently arrived from Hayti have been lent in a deposit
of Rentes, to a great foreign banking house ; and, it is
added, for the purpose of keeping up the Three per
Cents. at the last settling day.

Letters have been received trom Jamaica of the 23d
July, but they do not bring any news of importance.
