'I'iie Diiko of Ytjrk’s speccli nf^ainst the hill, had been printed in London in letters oi' };;ohl. Ministers had cijinmunirated three ;-,tate pajiers to pailianient, of considera ble imporiance, from the forei;--n dejjart- ment.—The first was a treaty with Hus- j5ia, sell!ing- the dii.pnted claims which existed, with it-p^ard to certain i ii;hts of tjade and »ia\igulion in the Pacific. I'he sorond was a treaty between r.nr;land and Sweden, providing; ^byfhe establishtm'ut of the mutual rii;ht of seaich) for the more eiVcrtual sunprcssion of the slave Irade.

The disturbances at that place bad not subsided vv hen the last account ^ame away. It is stated in a l^aris pa per, that Ferdinand Mas willintj; to re- cop;ni7e the independence of Mexico, on condition that his brother the Infant Don Francisco de Panic should be placed on the tin one,under the protection of vSpain ; and that M. Vallejo had been despatch ed to Mi'an, on a mission to the Emper or of Austria Mith this project. Great exertions were making at Conma. to til out the second expedition intended for Havana ; fi om which it was inferred that ■ some attempt was feared of the Mexicans agaiu-st Cuba. (jieece.—Thc news from Cireecc con- tiinied to be of the most gratifjin.e; na- tuie. The intelligence of the defeat of the Egyptiatis near Navarino, had re ceived additional confirmation from va rious quarters. The loss of the Turks iS slated at 2,000 killed, and 500 prison ers, among whiclr were several I’.urope- anoflicers. Patras was closely blockad ed by land and sea.

I'he market looks very healthy—speculators pay pictly freely.” From the London Times, of May 21. A silence little short of stupefaction, appears to have taken place of that rest- le.ss bustle and vivacity which reigned a- mong all classi's of the political world before the bill for relieviiig the Catholics was rejected. We have y^t no account of the sensa tion produced in Irehuul by that ominous and infatuated vote ; nor is it at an early day that this country ought to look for its fidl and inevitable consequences. The vote itself was not the most unfortunate occurrtnce of last Tuesday. The spirit in which it was pi’onounced by the lead ers of the anti-Ca-tiiolic majority, was such as fo arm the seHience with intoler- al)le stings. It was not alone an unfavo rable, it had the appearance of an a?igrt/ vole. We say nothing of the Hussar of licers who talked, in characteristic lan guage, about lighting their countrymen, (lefending positions, &c.; but we lament to hiue heard a liishop so intolerant as the Right Rev. Father who was loudest in his denunciation of tlie Catholics ; and ^till more do we lament the tone of tiie Prime Minister, who forgot his argu ment, atid even did apjiarent violence to ihe constitution of a temperate or phleg- natic mind, for the sake of pronounci".ig against six millions ol‘Catholics eternal’j exclusion from the lights of British sub- iects. Lortl Liverpool’s speech was not an objection to time or circumstance meiely—it was an objection to the prin- iple of the measure of emancipation; and, if good for any thing, would be of sa^r, bcir.Ej amcd and ec^tiipped in s. style vastly superior ti> any thing seen in that ])ari of tlie countiy, and remarkable as bi'ing furnished by a government yet in its infancy. 7>V-cr.'—We have already mentioned that the Sovereign Congress of Peru had vo’ed to Bolivar'oiie million of dollars, ar.d it appears that an equal sum was also voted for the use of the Colombian army. At the same time an act was.pasieil or- dtM’ing ati equesti’ian statue to be erected in the Constitutional Stiuare ol Lima, and a medal to be struck with the bust of the hero on one sifle, and the inscrip tion “to our liberator, Simon liolivar, on the other. The lollowing is C»eiural lj(diviir's answer, declining lo accept the pecuniary compensation oilered to him self : To the rrcsldeiit of the Sovcrcig-n Congress of I’cni ■ Excr.i.i.r.NT Sir—I he munificence of the Sovereign Congi'css hasi'ven surpas sed itself with regard to th>- liberating ai niy which has fouglit on the plaitis id Avacucho, I'lie Cieneral in Chief, Oraiid Marshal, has received a recom pense w'orthy of the Scijiio s and worthy of the sovereign people. 'I'Ik* other cliiefs, ofiicers aiul ti-oops have been irealed with tlie noblest generosity. C on- gress, rivalling in magti.mimity t!ie lib erators of its country, has shewn ilself worihy of representing an august people: bui, Fxcellent Sir, was not the confidence reposed in me by congress a sullicienl honor ? Was not the glory which it conferred in placing in my hands the des tiny of its countr ., suiricient lo satisfy me.^ Why then seek to humiliaie, lo confound me by excessive favors, Iiy the ofler of a treasui-e that 'I cannot accejit. Were I to receive the rewards ottered me by Congress, my services to Pei u would be ofjscured by their liberalitv. My most axnious w ish is to hold Peru my debtor for the feeble services that I have consecrated to her cause. To disdain the traits of generosity ^vith which Congress honor me, is far from tny intention ; but I have never ac- ceptcfl similar rewards from ('olombia, therefore, it would be highly inconsistent to receive from the hands of Peruvians that which I have refused from those of my fellow-citizens. I am satisfied. Excellent Sir, with tlie honor of having merited the esteem and gratitude of the Cong^ress of Peru the medal ordeKed to be engraved wiih my bust is so much superior to my services that it alone w ill fill the measure of my most unlimited desires. I accc|)t this gift fi'om Congress with an effusion of gratitude that no words can express.— He pleased. Most Excellent Sir, to trans mit to the Sovereign (^jngress, in the name of the army and of mvself, the tes timonies most ex]jressiye of our jirnfound gratitude. I have the honor to ofler to yourself the cniiments ofniv es'eem. 'bolivau. Fro77i Mcfnmns.—W'e learn from Capt. rirolhars, of the sc hr. Eagle, that ac counts readied Matanzas on the afier- f'(|ua! lorce an hundred years hence as at this moment. It was full, besides, cf| of ‘he 16th inst. that the Negroes V^iat infer- ^n several of the principal ])l;mtations in. exasperating .sentiments. Wl ence, then, is ii jio.'isible the Catholics will draw from an oj)pos.iiioH to their claiTns thin constructed i We fear, this — (though (lod grant that our fears may be unfounded)—that through ihe Lrgislnlurc of the empire, through the doors of the Constitution, they can never hope for ac cess to its benefiis ; and, therefore, that h'gal possession being withheld from them, they must seek it by means which the Constitution does.not recognise. Ta king forcilde possession of a right re fused, is far IVom being a practice un- know n to Iriih claimants. Ikit is that species of redress peculiar to Ireland.^ Has the Ilriiish Emj)ii-e never experienced the efVects of such ex periments in other and most memorable instances?

I’lioM I’Kiji;. nAiTiMonr, .irsi' 'J7.—The ship Unvy^ Da\is, arrived at this port on Saturday evening from Chorilles, by which we received from our correspondents, Lima papers and other advices to the‘21st tjf i’cbruary, and information from San Lorenzo to tlie 2d .March. 'I’he shij) U- jSY/z/av. ('oniTiiodore Hum., and sJ(joj) i f war i\\U'QvJ:, lieiit. comd’i, Keiinon, were at 'horilli ’:, all well—the Hriiish ship of the line Cambrid^^c^ was lying at the sanre place. The Hinckading Srpiadron, consisting of the frigate Admiral IJlanco, sloop of war Pnnchinchn, and brigs Gun- ynpuiHinn, Chinhoracn, and several smal ler vcs'^eF,s continued to blockade the port of Callao, with great rigor. Sever al slight afi’dirs had taken place between ilie castles and the sijuadron, the result of which was unimportant. Our correspondent states that about the loth of i bruary, one thousand men arrived from liogota; he considered them the best looking tronp-> he ever tlie Partido of San Jose, distant about '20 miles, had revolted, and had murdered in the most cruel manner the jiroprie- tors. The Cloveinor immediately des- patclied a large body of tro jps to the scene of action, and when capt. 13. sailed (12 days ago) it was undei-siood the in surgents had been pretty much subdued, afier killing 60 or 70 of their number.— The w hole number collected was said lo be about 300—they had killed 15 ar 20 whites, (including one female) principal ly foreigners. Great alarm, however, yet existed in the country, and whole i’amilies were coming into the town for .security. K V. Ahr. Jdvediscr. In the N. Y. Daily Advertiser, of the 21st., we find an account of a liritish As sociation—conceived in the fever heat of speculations—called the “'Fiopical Free Labour Company the object of which is "to prjmole, within the Hrii- ish dominions, the grow th of tl’.e several ariielfs of tropical production, by nieans of free labour.” 'I'he capital of ihe com- (laiiy ir, four millions of pounds sterling. .\t tlu; head of it are his royal hi;^liness the Duke (d’(iloucester, and eleven Vice Presidents, nearly all of whom are inem- ber.s of Parliament. \Ve have been favoured by a commer cial Iriend wiih a file of Dublin papers to the 21st?.Iay inciusi^•e—they are almost exclusively occupied with the debates whicii have taken ]>lacc in the British Parliament on the Catholic relief bill. L'.’Uei s Irom Dublin of the 21st May re- ceivoil in this city, state such was the ex- cite.ment throughout Ireland in conse quence of the result of the Catholic ques tion in the IIou.?e of Lords, that the dif- fei'ent double coaches were despatched with guards, from the strong apprehen sion of disturl>ances. Bull, diner. Prince Murat, who arrived at the Qua rantine (ii’ounil in the brig Ilesper, reach ed the city yesterday morning. He is an elegant young man, api)arently about 21 years of age. After a sliort stay with his uncle Bonaparte at Bordentown, he in tends, we understand, to visit his elder -Ijrother in Florida, who is cultivating a large tract oi'iiiJul at that place. y Y. Ga::. Jine 2?. DOMESTIC. Cobnization Society.—M a meeting of the Officers and Managers of the Aux iliary Society of this City, on the 2d inst. on a letter being read from the Resident .\griit at Washington, calling upon this Society for aid in carrying on its opcpa- tions, it was resolved, thalthe Ireasurer forihwilh call upon the Members of this Society fur an annual payment of their .subscriptions,. and that he, as, .soon ^as collected, transmit the same to Rich’d. Smith, Treasurerof the Society in Wash ington City. The Secretary was also diiWted to address a Circulai^ Note to the Clergymen in the neighbouring Coun tries, requesting, in conformity to the express recommendation of the Ecclesi astical .ludicatories of ihe Country, that they w ill make a collection in their sever al Congregations on some Sunday in ibis month, or at as early a period as may be convenient, in favor of ihe Colonization Society, and transmit the amount of such colleci'ioiis by mail, or by any convenient, private oi)portunity,t'> Mr. Daniel Dupre, Treasurerof this Society, in Raleigh, or to Rich’d. Smith, Esq. Treasurer of the Parenl Society in Washington. Notice w as given in the Presbyterian Church of this city, on Sunday last, that a Discourse would be delivered there on ibis subject, and a collectioti madt‘, on Sunday next. The Rev. Dr. Caldw-ell, wc learn, will be ihe Preacher. At this meeting. Governor Burton was appointed a Vice-Pi esident of this Socie- tv, in the place of the laie Arch. Hender son, Esq. and Wm. Boylan, Sherwood Haywood and VV’m. Peace, Esqrs. Man agers, to fill the vacancies occasioned by ihe deaths of Moses Mordecai, Esq. and Dr. Battle, and the remo\al of John E- vatis. Raleigh Register. The injury to the crops of wheat, be low the head of tide water in Virginia, by the rust^ turns out to be fully as great as w as apprehended by the farmers be fore harvest. The wheat in many fields has not been cut at all, and the most cor rect estimate of the average loss, is from a tfiird to one half. We are graiiiied, however, to hear from many of the mid dle counties, and from beyond the Blue Rid'^'e, that the crops are unusually fine. From JelVerson ancl Fauquier we learn, that, within the memory of the oldest in habitants, the crop has never be-.n more abundant. The N\’wspaper accounts of the wheat crops in the slates north of Virginia represent them as very fine. Richmond Erv^virer, The late eleciiun for a Delegate to Con;;ress in Florida, has given rise to a 5;cw spapi'r controversy, werein Achilles Ml HAT, (son of the late revolutionary King of Naples,) was a party. By the advice of ii\e United States District At torney, Murat went to the polls at St. Augujiine, and gave in his vote, which some of the judges of the eh clion dis puted, and which an anonymous writer in the Herald afterwards l eproached him for an intention to deceive, in exercising the elective privilege, without the neces sary qualification of residence. Murat, in reply, denies any intention to violate the laws, which we can readily believe, in a spirited appeal to the Floridians, in a manner creditable lo his feelings as a gentleman. And here the matter rests for the present. Gaz. Mouris RtRKnECK, Esq. Secretary of the Stale of IITmois, was lately drowned, in crossing a stream on his w'ay home from a visrt to Mr. Owen at Harmony. Mr. B. w as the founder of New Albion, the zealous promoter of emigration from (ireat Britain, and the author of a vivid description of the Western country. His loss will be severely felt by the emigrants of the West. His door was ever open, and his purse was ever at the service of •‘the houseless wanderer.” He has lef'l four sons and two daughters. ib. Ptrccrh of prainise of HHtrriagr..—A clergy man named .Augustus B. Reed, who is settled in Troy, Massacliuselts, was, a lev,’ days ago, suhjecled in S.w5 dam- agr'c for breach of jiromise of marriage made to a young lady. 'I'he defendant had pursued his theological studies with tlie ])IuintifJ'>> father, the Rev. Mr. Otis 'I'liompson, of Rehoboth, during which he ourled, utid promised her jnarriage. He w ari afterwards ordained ; but instead of fulfilling his engagements with ihe plaintilV, lie married another lady, a mem ber of his ow n congregation. Ilydrnphohin,—We observe by the Quel;ec papers received this morning, that several mad dogs were ascertained to be in the vicinity of Quebec, and all persons were required to cause their dogs lo be muzzled. We mention this cir cumstance to state, that Doctor Painch- ard, a celebrated physician of Quebec^ in a communication to the city authori ties, mentions that he has now under his care a child, who had been biuen by a dog supposed to have been mad, under the roof of wh'ose tongue certain symp toms had apjuared similar to those ob served and published by a medical gen tleman in Russia; that agreeably to ihe directions, he performed the operation, and that 800n after the wound assumed an improved appearance. A furiher ac count is promised. N. I". Coin. .'idv.

We understand a petition in behalf of this miserable old man will be presented to the legislature at this session, wiih a view, if nothing further can be done, to procure the passage of a resolution re commending his peculiar case to the con sideration of the next Congress, who, if there is no other power, to w liicli he a[)ply for relief, may upon such applica* lion be induced to enact a special law i| his favor, under all these circumstances.
