DEATH OF BONAPARTE.

Captain HENDRY, of the Rosario sloop of war, ar-
rived at the Admiralty from St. Helena, at half past
eleven o'clock this forenoon, in a chaise, and four.
His dispatches, which were reported to be of the
utmost importance, were instantly sent off to his
MAJESTY. The substance of them we are ena-
bled to state from the best authority. They an-
nounce the death of the Ex-Emperor of Trance, NA-
POLEON BONAPARTE. This event, which in every
generous and christian sense ofThe term, we may call
melancholy, took place, as we are informed, on the
sth of May last. The complaint of which he died
was a cancer in the stomach. It is a hereditary dis-
ease in the BONAPARTE family; the father of NAP°.
Lam; died of it at the age of 35.
The E:•EstPEaoR was in the fifty-second year of
his age. The reputed day of his birth wat the 15th
of Augast, 1769 ; but we believe he post-dated his
birth two or three months, for some political reason
lor other, which we at present forget.

The Admiralty telegraph has been constantly at
woi k since the arrival of the dispatches. It is sup-
posed that the intelligence must ere this have reached
the shores of France, where it cannot fail to produce
an extraordinary sensation.

Dispatches to the same effect as those received
at the Admiralty, have arrived at the East India
House. A letter from Sir Hunsos Lows to thel
Court of Db ectors, was read !* = rorenoon in the
General Court, dated the 6th of May last, stating
that General BONAPARTE expired at ten minutes be-
fore six, on the sth of May last, at his new residence
of Longwood. He had been confined since the 17th
of March last.

Three Mails arrived this forenoon from Lisbon,.
with Papers to the 16th of June. They contain seve-
ral official Papers sent from Rio Janeiro ; and among
others, one from the Minister SILVESTR PINHEIRO
FKREIRA, dated the 50th April, in which is the fol-
lowing most important and spirited Declaration:
" It is my duty to acquaint your Excellencies, that
the King having been informed that there were at
the Congresses of Troppaa and Laybach, persons
who persuaded the Sovefeigns there assembled that
they ought to take it as the incontestible basis of their
deliberations, that the Kings of Naples, Spain, and
Portugal by no means adhered to the Constitutions
there proclaimed, and. that it was proper to dis-
tinguish the sound part with the respective Sove-
reigns constrained by force, and the rest of the Na-
tion, hurried away by the ctime of the wicked ;
his Majesty orders me to signify for him to his Mi-
nisters at different Courts, that, far from assenting to
such an assertion, he positively orders them to ex-
press, in the most solemn manner, whenever it shall
be necessary, that having resolved to take the most
free and voluntary oath to observe and enforce the
Constitution which the General Cortes of the King-
dom shall agree upon, this act has proceeded solely
from a sincere conviction that the Cortes are the le-
gitimate organ and expression of the national will;
and that nothing can alter the firm and delibe-
rate resolution which he has taken to maintain,
in the whole extent of these kingdoms,-whatever may
be established or decreed by so legal a means, to
serve as a Code for all classes of the nation, all

of whom his Majesty recognizes, ought, without
exception, to obey the geneyal will, thus expressed
and that, far from approving the announced Alliance
against the three Nations in general, and against the
Portuguese in particular, his Majesty will consider as
a most flagrant aggression against the independence
of his Royal Crown, all and every step, convention,
or agreement, by which foreign Sovereigns shall pre-
tend to interfere in any manner in the, objects now
discussing by the General Cortes of the Kingdom.
6, I am certain that this frank and spontaneous
declaration of his Majesty cannot fail to inspire all
good Portuguese with the most flattering hopes, espe-
cially as they are acquainted with the sentiments of
the Prince Royal, and of the People of Brazil."
Another dispatch states, that the King had sent the
bearer J. Rod. Perreira de Almeida, to negotiate
a loan of six millions of crusadoes for the Bank of
Brazil, under the guarantee of the Public and Royal
Treasury of this Province; if the loan cannot be con-
eluded in Portugal as they wish, Senor Rod. Per-
reira de Almeida has instructions to try to nego.l
ciate it in England-or elsewhere. A warm debate on
this subject took place in the Cortes, who ottani-

monsly declared That they entirely disapproved of
this loan. '

A Jamaica Mail arrived this morning with Papers
to the Bth May. The following are extracts :

JAMAICA, MAY 7.

By the Perfecto Union we learn that the Indepen-
dent Army, under General UrA.aneta, was to be put
in motion on the 29th ult. the day after the expira-
tion of the armistice, to march against Coro, which
place. it was expectrd would soon fall. At Mara.'
caybo, a conspiracy in favour of the Royalists was
discovered, when about SOO persons were arrested.
The brigantine Matia, with a full cargo of horses
and mules, was taken possession of on the 30th ult.
, in the port of Portel, on the Indian coast, by a sloop,
under the Independent flag, which was carried to
Rio de la Bache

A Mail has arrived this forenoon from Hamburgh,
with Papers to the 29th ult. They announce that
the whole Russian fleet is fitting out, with all haste,
to sail to the Mediterranean. The intelligence was
brought by vessels which had arrived at Copenhagen,
in four days from Cronstadt, and was considered
perfectly authentic.

The following is the only new intelligence from
Turkey :

FROM THE FRONTIERS OF MOLDAVIA, JUNE 6.

According to the last accounts from Jassy, the ,
Greeks had retired as far as the River Suezawa,
where they seemed disposed to concentrate their
force. The Pacha of Ibrailow, indeed, declared that
'the Turks should not injure the innocent, and that
he would do all in his power to maintain order; but
as his troops look upon this as a religious quarrel,
this assurance was not able to remove the apprehen-
sions of the inhabitants.
On the 29th, Cantemir, who had till then remained
with the archives of the Austrian Agency, left Jassy,
and went, with several other Officers, to Skuleni.
The Greeks get more and more the public offices
into their hands, and distribute them at pleasure, and
especially persecute the Boyars whom they suspect
of attempting a counter-revolution. The country
houses of many Boyars are destroyed.
An unconfirmed report was spread that the Greeks
and Turks had had a battle at Fockshany, and that
the place had been burnt. It was also affirmed that
Ypsilanti had named his brother Governor of Mol-
davia, and that the latter was advancing with some
thousands of men; it is also said, that Ali Pacha of Jo-
annina had been killed by the Greeks, because he had
attempted to reconcile himself to the Porte, and that
they had given the command to Prince Michael Ypsi-
' lanti.
