By the arrival of the Minerva, which left Calcutta on
the 6th of January, dispatches have been received from
the GOVZRNOR•GENIIRAL of India, with enclosures from
Sir AACHIZALD CAMMLL, at the seat of war. They
confirm the account. of the defeat of the Burmese by
our troops, in the early part of Dec. previously received.

His MAJESTY, with that munificence and humanity
which -form a brighter attribute of royalty than the
diadem he wears, was no sooner made acquainted with
the distress unhappily prevailing at Macclesfield and
Blackburn, than he was graciously pleased to order
that a sum of ONE THOUSAND POUKDS should be
transmitted to each town out of his privy purse, for
the relief of the sufferers in these places. This, it will
be recollected, is in addition to two thousand pounds
his MAJESTY has within a few months given for the re-
lief of the Spit alfields Weavers. Would to GOD that
his MAJESTY'S affluent subjects would follow an exam-
ple so truly worthy of their imitation. The Preston
Pilot announces his MAJESTY'S donation. to the poor at
Blackburn in large letters above the title of the Paper,
in the first page, in the following emphaticeterms:
His MAZISTT has tbis day most graciously transmitted 41,000
to the Blackburn Subscription for the Weavers. Long live
the KINII

- -
The Macclesfield Herald of Saturday, in making
known his MAJESTY'S donation to that town, says—
,. 44 We are happy to announce that our gracious and beloved Soar
uncut, actuated by the benevolence which so strongly• marks his
cinduiter, has gives One Thousand Pounds ter the relief of the

thatSre lay before our readers the following letter from Mr. Secre-
tary Psis. to our worthy Mayor.
" Whitehall, April tOth, 111241.

His MAJESTY has also been graciously pleased to
give one hundred guineas to the poor of Salford. This
fact was on Wednesday announced to the poor people
assembled to receive the relief distributed in provisions,
and excited amongst them the liveliest expressions of
gratitude.

The Dutch have never been famed for the mildness
or prudence of their sway over their colonies, and their
present dominion in Java is not an exception to their
general character. This forenoon a letter was received
at the North and South American Coffee-house, from
Batavia, which gives a very gloomy picture of affairs
there, and the accounts in the Dutch Papers are not
much more favourable. The following is the letter to
which we bare alluded;

BATAVIA, Deviants 111.
The affairs of this Government wear a gloomy aspect, their
fiances are in a distressed state owing to large debts, the amount
of papa: money in circulation being great, and little silver to be
'bad, as you may suppose, when silver guilders range in the several
divisions of the Island at_ from 35 to Mk they are bought by
this Government at 20 to 22 to pay their troops. The palsy
pursued during the last live year. by Government has brought
this Colony to the verge of rule (should rather say Impolicy); the
natives have dissevered the weakness of the Dutch, and are taking
advantage of it in many of their possessions.

In Java, the natives interior of Jamming have taken the field
since July, and, this Government acknowledge that they have sot
power ro pet down this serious rebellion. Many soldiers have been
sacrificed. and with no other effect thin teaching the Insurgents
how to fight, to retract, and value the Dutch power. Their leaders
are getting bolder every day. The Dutch forces are new compelled
to remain inactive La their several fortresses. I shall not be in the
least surprised to learn that the rebel' hate carried them all by
storm, when the rains are passed. The object the leaders of the
insurrection have in view, is to establish the native power, say the
Salmons desninions, Independent of European controuL They have
no disposition to make conquest of the Seacoast, west of Chalks.
All is quiet ; and no fears are entertained that it will not continue so.

New York Papers to the Ist inst have been received
at the North and South ♦merican Coffee-house. In
the sitting.of the Senate, on the 16th of January, a Re-
port was presented from the Committee of Foreign
Affairs, on the subject of the Panama Mis.ion, which,
falter detailing a ♦ariety of objections to it, concludes

with stating 04 that it k inespedient for the United
States to send- any Minister to the Congress of Pa•
neut.." Among the objections, it states a want of
the concurrence of opinion between the different

parties on material points--that the agitation threatens
to comiiipmite the neutrality of the Unite4.States,,Apd
that some of 'the subjects of deliberation 'Would' be
better settled in separate negociations with the separate
States, than in a conference with all. The subject 1111110
be discussed in the Houses of Representatives on the,Sd
instant, and was the only important question connected
with foreign politics remaining to be considered daring
the Session. A Bill has been introduced in Congress
once more, to abolish imprisonment for debt.

This forenoon we receiveJ Frankfort Papers to Ole
18th inst. Their contents are wholly of a commerci4l
character, as will be seen by the following extracts

LEIPSIG, APRIL 15.
The payment of the last month of March has not produced ady
new catastrophe. Some compositions of foreign debtors have,
indeed, affected some of our merchants, but these are ordinary oc-
currences. We have had no new bankruptcies, though the
principal persons on our Exchange have uut shown so much patti.
*dim as those of Frankfort and Hamburg, in eupporting their fellow
Christians. The number of Georgians and Persians at the Fair
increase' and their ducats are already in brisk circulation fur English
Cotton Manufactures, and German Woollens, Silks, &c. Itorl
are expected from these parts of Persia, as well as Prussians sal
Poles, so that the prospect is pretty good. English goods moot Ira
great abundance, and Gold is rising in value. because a great deal ia
remitted to England, while little is drawn from that country. The
liberality of the Prussian Government, in assisting the landholders
with loans upon deposits of wool, has already facilitated the sales of
the wool Warehoused in London ' • and as this will check the ide
of the spring wool in Prussia, and our Government will hardly
adopt the same measure, it may be expected that the English.
Netherlanders, and French, will purchase to advantage at our first
wool fair, to be held in May this year, when the prices will proba-
bly be moderate.
