We are happy to learn that dispatches have been.received by Government from Demerara, of the date of the 31st August, which completely confirm the satisfactory but unofficial accounts which we yesterday laid before our Readers. It is true, as was stated, that on the first intimation received by Major-General Muuttmt, the Governor, on'' the 18th of August, of a probability of insurrectionary movements on the part of the Slaves in a particular district, he hastened to the spot, accompanied by a small detachment of mounted militia, with the object, in the first instance, of securing a principal ringleader, which was accomplished.  The Governor having attempted, by personal expostulation with detached parties of the revolted Negroes, to deter them from their criminal enterprise, but without success, he felt it necessary to proclaith Martial Law, and to direct those military movements against the Insurgents on the 19th and 20th of August, which, as our Readers have been apprised, were carried on with uninterrupted success.  On the 20th and 27.,1, the Governor issued the two Proclamations which we published yesterday, and on the 31st of August, the period when the dispatches were sent fiom the colony, the revolted slaves had all retamed to their allegiance, surrendering their arms to the military authorities, with the exception of one bun' dred negroes, who remained unaccounted for. The professed object of the insurgent's was " ditional Emancipation." The explanation disseminated throughout the colony that all measures of amelioration must entirely depend upon the good conduct of the slave population, had produced the most satisfactory impression. No accounts have been received of any Whites having been murdered in cold blood, although many were placed in the stocks, and others treated with personal indignity. The General Court-Martial continues sitting in George Town, for the trial of the leaders in these out' lager, some of whom had been executed. The reports fiom Essequibo and the other parts of the Colony were satisfactory, and the militia had been called out to protect the fire-arms, which were collected in depots.  We understand that it is the intention of Government to send out, immediately, reinforcements of troops to Dcmarara, as also to all the other colonies,, respecting which apprehensions of similar disturbances are entei tained.  We publish to-day what is alleged to be a true copy of a Proclamation or Decree, issued by the King of SPAIN, declaring all the acts of the Constitutional Government, from the 7th March, 1820, of whatever kind or description, null and vojd, including, of course, the Convention of the 12th of March, 1823, for the payment ache British claims.—We have little doubt of the authenticity of this document, but are far from sharing in the apprehension which some persons express, as to the influence it may have on. the amicable relations between this country and Spain. A learned Civilian has been at the pains, in his Paper of this morning, to prove from Vattel, that by the Law of Nations no such treaty as the Convention in question can be substantially affected by the internal revolutions of a country. He advances what is more to the point, when he observes, that if our Treaty " had been unjust we would not have made it; and having made it we shall not suffa it to be violated." The King of SPAIN, although he may, for form's sake, annul the Treaty as the act of the Constitutional Government, will, of course, immediately adopt it of new as his own Royal act and deed, and thus remove all cause of quarrel between his MAJESTY and Great Britain.
