Now it is a well known hnd established fact in natural history, that all animals of the ger- pesvt tribe will invariably refuse to prey upon flcsh which is already dead, and particUlarly the specics of ssrpeni alluded to in the de. scription. The same reasoning that 'i Humunitas" holds forth, Mt regard to the inhuninity of presenting live animals to the serpents, may be used in a minor degree towards tlic smR1U harle- quin snake, which will feed upon nothing btit white Intce; but I imagmine it would appear to be exeessively ritdicalous to notice such tt H.

A rumour was spread in the city -.yesterd ay, which we should think improbable; but which, nevertheless, obtain- ed some belief from persons well acquainted with the af-. fairs of Spain. The rumour was to this efflect-that the French, finding it impossible to instil any thing like a libe- ral policy into the mind of FEnaRNAN3D, or to obtain his formal consent to a Constitutioilt wifh proper 'checks and balances, were endeavouring to prevail upon him to resign the crown in favour of his brother Don CALLOS. For our own parts, though we gre convinced that no good would re- suit from such a measure towards tranquillizing the Pe- ninsula, yet we should not be sorry that the French should adopt it. It would show to the world the dependwnt con- dition of Spain: for what clearer act of severeignty can one State exercise over another, tlhan that of changing its reigning King at vill ? This would be d la Buonaparte. The invaders, having entered the country under the pretence of supporting the legitimate monarch against his rebellious subjects, end by deposing this selfsame Mr. Legitimate, and putting up his brother in stead: that is, they impose their own satraps at pleasure. And then, what benefit, we ask, is to arise from the new sovereign ?- Ask what good Don CARLOS can do ? Just as much as Don FERNANDO i From every thing we have heard, the younger brother is not one titUe more enlightened, more liberal, or more hu- mane than the elder. But we would seriously ask the French, or rather their governors, this one question.-viz, whether their inability to settle the concerns of Spain does not prove that they have no business there? They have now been in that country for nearly two years: the object of their visit, as they assured the world, was an affair that would be settled " in no time:" it was only to liberate the KING from a small party that had got possession of his ungainly person, and restore hiim to the wishes of his peo- ple. For that purpose " the son of our love" was sent into the Peninsula, which country he has quitted very much in the mainer of BUONAPARTr, loaving ten times greater confusion behind him than he found on entering. Let the French, then, we say, march out of the Peninsula: let them bar their own kingdom against the entrance of a single Spaniard : let other nations then, also, if they please, in due time and with proper precautions, cast back the Spanish refugees upOII their native soil, and let Spaniards fight out or negotiate their own quarrels among themselves. 'F'liey will sooner come to a solid conclusion of their troubles, than if all the nations of Europe were to interfere (wbich nonc bas a right to do) upon the pretence of pacifying Spain.

The Times, 1824-12-28T00:00:00

The Calcutta Government Gazette of the 29th of July, contains the narratives of a series of military operations at and in advance of Rangooni, all of which ended in a manner the most succeusful to the British arms. On the 1st of July, the Burmiiese lvere the assailants. They at- tacked the right of Sir A. CAMPIFELL'S position, and pene- trated at Oell time between our picquets, but were shortly afterwards repelled and put to flight withl little trouble or loss. On the 5th the British troops assatned the o&nsive, making an attack by water uider Sir A. CAMPREELL, who carried three stockades after a slight resistance, and de- stroyed considerable numbers of the enemy. On the same day a land attack teok place under Brigadier General M'VCRE GII, who had under him a force of above 1,200 Europeans, and 300 Native Infantry. The object of this enterprise was to turn, and if possible surround, the ene- my; but though it appears that the conduct both of officers and men was distinguished by skill and courage, and though seven strong stockades were stormed with very trifling loss, the results of the day are de- scribed to be only the flight and dispersion of the ene- my, of whom near 1,000 were left dead on the field. The body of their army, estimated at 14,000 men, escaped into the interior. The British had not more in the whole than from 70 to s0 killed and wounded. The Burmese are said to have fought bravely; but lhad not fire-arms for a fourth of their men. Of the ulterior operations meditated, there is nothing to be collected either f*om the despaethes or from the unofficial intelligence published by the Calcutta Journal.

Alr. HEATTI observed, that all those who had paid him since the assignment was executed mustpay over again.
