The Statesman.
London, England, 1823-07-04 00:00:00

New York Papers have arrived this morning to the Bth
'Jane, from which we extract the following:
RUENOS AYRES, MARCH 22.—Between the hours of 7
and 9 at night, of the 19th inst., the Government re-
ceived information that in Tapiales, four leagues from the
city, an assemblage of armed people were formed. Upon
thisinformation Government took measures. The Con.'
spirators, whose number was more than 200, and who
bad at their head Colonel Bawza Kera and Don Aragoz,
entered at two in the morning on different sides, and
through the town of La Victoria, proclaiming in loud
Voice " Viva la Religion yla Patria." The first thing
they did was to force the guard of the prison to set at
liberty Various culprits. The measure that the Go-
'vernment took was that of uniting in the fortress all the
Wee, consisting of about 100 men. In this situation the
Government appointed as Chief of the forces General Li
Him, and he went out of the town to fight with the in-
surgents. On both sides there was a violent straggle,
which lasted about 8 minutes. The result was, the re
bele were entirely defeated, and abandoned the post,
leaving several dead, wounded, and prisoners.
LATE3T FROM Cnit.r.—By a letter written in Chili, under
date of 23d March, we learn the following with regard to
Lima:—

The unfavourable rumours and expectations are said to
be confirmed. Our force on the coast of Arequipa had
been routed. In Lima they write they were about dispens-
ing with the Congress ; that Arenales was about being ay
pointed Dictator; that! La Mar would be General of the
Army. The English • rite that the Royalists will occupy
Lima in March. The Council has agreed that a mercantile
agent should go to Lima.
Farm Rio JANEIRO TO TIM 16'rn APRIL—The Amerlean
merchants and masters of vessels are hereby notified that a
Decree of the Emperor, under date of the 29th ult. declare
the Port of Bahia in a state of rigorous blockade.
Rio JANEIRO, Amu, 9.—An embargo has existed in
this port since the 14th ult., but is now talcen off. It
was during the Drazillian fleet was fitting out for the
purpose of blockading St. Salvador. The fleet sailed on
the 3d April.
FROM CHILL—When the Armitage left Chili, that
country was in an almost state of revolt against the ex-
isting Government. A new tariff, with a view of favour-
ing certain Ministers who had speculated in commerce,
has been the principle cause of disturbance, which
commenced in Conception, the import province of Chili,
under the command of General Treyre. S I towns
have jnined 'the Director, and the army of Treyer was on-
ly 60 leagues from Santiago.

SMCX EICRINGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.—Consols opened
this morning at S2l, at which price they have kept
steady, with little business doing. An Express is said
to have arrived from Paris, bringing the French funds
SS, 56, and Spanish, 36, but we do not hear that it has
brought any intelligence of consequence from the army
in Spain. But private accounts state, that the two French
divisions which had marched on Cadiz, have found them-
selves in a perilous situation, as Ballasteros is marching
in their rear, and we understand that our Government
is of opinion that the war in Spain will be procastinated.
Fostems Ft:Nos.—Spanish opened at 3211—Colum-
bian, 551- with little doing in any other securities.

New Spanish, 3?—Prussia, 83i ex•dividend—Russia,
SIP-Danish, 87 ex-dividend—Columbian, 55i.

The Government people express great alarm respecting
Ireland, and rumours of all kinds are at present afloat
suet) as that the militia are to be called out, Bre. In our,
extracts from the Dutch papers, there is an article stating,
that all the English Officers in the Netherlands have
been ordered to repair immediately to this country. We
presume this must also have reference to the alleged ap-
prehension for Ireland.
It was happily observed by Sir Philip Francis. that
we dislike nothing of the Catholic Religion, but those
who believe it in Ireland. If this observation was just
seven years ago, It appears to have tenfold force at pre-
sent, when our Ministers have been exerting themselves
so powerfully to continue the Peninsula under the do-
minion of t'nestcmft and the Inquisition.

Sorrn A MPTON, Ju a.—By accounts received yester-
day from Havre, we are informed that the merchants are
much dis,atisfied with the war ; all their vessels are laid
up as they return. The quantity of colonial prodnce on
Land at llavre is very great; the warehouses are quite
full, and tents are placed all the length of the Quay, for
nearly a mile, to cover the cotton brought from the West
Indies. It is stated that the 10th Regiment, now in Spain,
has lost the greatest proportion of its wen.
A subscription has been entered into in this town in aid
or the fuod now accumulating throughout the kingdom
far the assistance of 'he Spaniards in repelling their French
invaders.—( Derby APreurb.)
l;E:coot.Ju I9.—The Hercules, Scott, from Liver-
pool, arrived hereon the 15th inst., and has been charter-
ed by Lord Byron for tiro months certain, and two
months cosiditconally.—[Lord Byron has expressed an
intention personally to aid the Greeks. Perhaps this is a
step towards the accomplisharent of his plan.]
The Duke of York, Prince Leopold, most of the Cabi-
net Ministers, and a nnurerous assemblage of nubility,
Ike., went on hoard the Diana steam-packet at half-past 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon, at Whitehall-stairs, to pro-
reed to Richmond, where the Marquis of Hertford gave
aide chavetre, at Queensberry House.
The celebrated Miss Edgeworth, accompanied by Sir
Walter Scott and a party, were last week on a visit to
St. Andrews.

officers in the Netherlands are to leave the kingdom in
24 hours, and repair to England, where they would re-
ceive public orders.—(Rotterdam Courant.)
Beaux, JUNE 26.—1 t is unfortunately our lot to have
to record in Prussia, as well as in parts of Germany, the
uncommon frequency of fires, which destroy whole vil-
lages and towns. Thus on the 27th May, in the little
town of Willie) au, on the Oder, near Frankfort, the
church, the school, 231 dwelling-houses, 26 barns, and
230 stables, were reduced to ashes. This is the fourth

ers of ships shall be in force. Consequently all ships

The following extract from the Brussels papers 'hews,
notwithstanding the official professions of Independence
on the part of the Canton of Berne, to what an extent
the influence of the Holy Alliance prevails in the Helvetic
Confederacy :
BASIC. ,fare 15.—The Helvetic Government has de-
creed the following measures with respect to foreigners:—

FRIVEMASONII.••••PORTSEL, JULY 2—Yesterday was a
grand gala day here for the good folks of the town. The
United budges of Winchester, Southampton, Emsworth,
and Portsea, had a Meeting and Dinner, being the first
time these 14 years in this town. The crowds to wit-
ness the sight from all the adjacent villages, were im-
mense, and the number of lovely and well dressed females
in gronpes, presented a most brilliant and fascinating
coup
The brothers of the different Lodges assembled about
9 o'clock, in the large hall room in Portsmouth, and a
little before 11, walked from thence in procession to
Portsmouth Church, where the prayers were read in a
tnost• impressive manner by the worthy vicar, the Rev.
Mr. lienwell, after which an anthem (from the 49th
chap. 13th verse, of Isaiah, (" Sing 0 heavens: and be
joyfol 0 earth,") was sang with considerable taste,
science, and general ability. The sermon from the sth
chapter of St. Paul to the Ephesians, 15th verse,—" See
'then that ye walk, ircumspectly, not as foola,hut as wise.,"
was preached by brother, the ttev. Mr. Hopkins of Win-
chester ; and was well calculated to make an impression
on all who heard it. The Reverend preacher descanted
largely and most feelingly on the duties of all to be cir-
cumspect and careful in their walk through life, and
enlarged particularly on the duties which Masonry im-
posed on its Members ; at the same time he modestly
eulogized their usnal custom of assisting each other in
the hour of need. With them, he said, the voice of com-
plaint was always listened to, and their delight was to
dry the orphans' and the widows' tears, and to succour
the fatherless and the destitute. From the tenor of this
discourse, it might be fairly concluded, that MAsoNs,
like the good Uncle Toby of Sterne, " had for every one's
sorrow a tear, for every oue'a wants a shilling."
At the conclusion of the service, they returned in pro-
cession to the ball room, took a slight refreshment, and
settled the business of the different Lodges, which lasted
them until half-past five, when they set off in ero-
sion to Portsea again to dinner, at what is called the
Society's Lodge, in the Old Rope Walk, an elegant and
epacions building, the lower part of which is used for
the Society's School. They arrived exactly at 6 o'clock,
and sat down to a splendid Dinner, prepared by Bro-
ther Absalom of the Mitre here. Every delicacy of the
Season was served in great profusion, to which, as well
as to the wines, ample justice was done; nothing could
exceed the regularity of the arrangements altogether,
or the splendour of the show. Each Mason wore the
insignia of the Brotherhood, and those Most advanced in
the science of the art, sported their various badges of
distinction. S 1 W.De Crespigny, the member for South-
ampton, was the president, and nearly 150 sat down to
dinner. All was concord and conviviality, and they did
r
not separate until an early hour In d.. morning. The
Royal Marine Band, probably the best in England,
brought np the rear of the. proeession, and continued
playing till the company separated.

muel Walker, London, David S. Skatts, Robert Pearson,
J. England. and Miss Julia Parduw, of New York, and

Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Gibral-
tar, dated I Ith Jane:—" The Dutch Admiral, command-
ing in the Mediterranean, has obtained the release of the
Dutch vessels, with their cargoes, lately sent into Alge-
sires, with the exception of the Cornelia Lucia, from
Cette to Stettin, which had been sold ; but the amount,
I believe, will be returned. This restitution is in virtue
of an old treaty, revived about two years ago, between the
two Governments, making the flag to protect the property
on hoard. The French Admiral, lately commanding off
Cadis has just arrived here, so that we have two
French line of battle-ships and a frigate in the bay. It
is supposed that he has come to enforce the restitution of
the French property taken and carried to Algesiras, as a
demand was made a few days ago to that effect by the
commander of the Trident to the Governor, grounded on
a principle of reciprocity, the French not making war
on Spanish commerce, but, on the contrary, their ships
had afforded protection to Spanish vessels against insur-
gent privateers; and that, io default of compliance. he
would resort to ulterior measures. In answer to this
communication, the Governor said lie would refer the
subject to his Government, and in the mean time cause
, the sales about to take place to be suspended ; and inter-
dicted the privateers from sailing. In addition to the
two French vessels whose names I have sent you,
three others have been taken ;nto Algesiras."
JUKE 12.—" It is stated that the French squadron
will batter the town of Algesiras if the French prizes are
not given up, which the Spanish Commandant has this
morning finally refused to do. The French frigate has
just captured three small vessels from Algesiras. supposed
with French property on board, and many vessels are
leaving that port. The Dutch Admiral and all the Dutch
vessels came over this morning."
Extract of a letter from the agent to Lloyd's at Gibral-
tar, dated June 14 :—" The Spanish Commandant at Al-
gesiras has agreed to give up the French vessels captured,
which have remained there, with an acknowledgement
for the property disposed of to be received from the Spa-
nish Government, which the French Admiral has agreed
to ; and the crews of the squadron are now rigging the
vessels to bring them out. One vessel has been *rut to
Cadiz, whirl), if not given up, the Admiral says he will
take a Spanish one, of equal value, and give it to the
master of the captured oue."

Intelligence was received yesterday at Lloyd's, of the
safe arrival at Cortmna, on the 17th nit., of the steam
ship the George the Fourth. The voyage from Falmouth
was performed in 62 hours, and the vessel sailed on the
21st for Lisbon, after remaining four days in the harbour
of Corunna. Much interest was attached to this vessel,
now on her first voyage, in pursuance of an arrangement
with tha Spanish and P..rtuguese Governments for the
conveyance of letters to England, on account of the sup-
posed danger of passing the Bay of Biscay in a veils,'
navigated by steam. This interest was much height-
ened by the very general persuasion which existed during
the whole of yesterday and Wednesday, that she bad
actually perished on the voyage. The letters brought
by the last vessel (The Three Sisters) from Corunna
were dated the 25th ult., 11 days after the departure of
the George Me Fourth from Falmouth, but were entirely
silent respecting her arrival at Corunna. This was even
the case with the letters from the agents to the English
Post-office at Corunna, who could hardly have foiled to
mention an arrival in which they were so particularly
interested. The vessel was therefore given up for lost
by those who investigated the intelligence from Corunna,
and insurances were effected on ter at Lloyd's at a rate
varying from 20 to 50 per cent. This uncertainty con-
tinued till late in the day, and was only removed by the
appearance of a gentleman on 'Change, woo had
come as passenger in the Three Sisters from Comma,
and who gave information of the safe arrival of the
George the Fourth, and of her subsequent departure for
Lisbon.

A public meeting was held in the town house of
Burntisland, on Friday the 20th inst., when resolutions
were adopted, expressive of the sympathy of the meeting
with the Spaniards in their present struggle, and a sub-
scription was at the same t►me opened, and the Magis-
trates appointed a committee to receive and transmit the
money to London.—(Edinburgh Star.)
- -

Patticg llonexcoe.—A morning paper told na the
other day, that three English Physicians have srt their
hands- and seals to the attestation of a miraculous cure
performed_ on the daughter of a French Lady, residing in
Bouvetie-street, in a case of " acute hysterical flatulence,
distension, and violent head-ache," which had rendered
the young lady quite bed-ridden, by merely writing to
Prince Hohentoe, and receiving directions from him to
"say Mass thrice and pray for him !" We should like to
know the names of these three Medical Midasee, which
the Journal alluded to very wisely keeps to itself.
This wonder-working Prince must have an amazing
quantity of busd his hands. Under the title •mf
