[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.] New-York, Tuesday Noon—June 18. LATEST FROM LONDON. By the attention of our correspondent at Boston, the editors of the New-York Gazette have received London papers to the 12th of May, from which (and their corres pondent’s communication) they have made the subsequent PYtvaftS’— LIBERTY OF THE PRESS. In the British house of commons on the 8th ultimo, Mr. Brougham brought forward a motion “That leave fee given to bring in a'bill for securing and extending the Liberty of the Press.” After considerable debate, leave was given to bring in the bill. There were several fires in Suffolk, England, the be ginning of May, the work of incendiaries, in consequence of the introduction of some new labor-saving improved machines. Some of the incendiaries had been apprehend ed, and committed for trial. The great marriage having been consummated, parlia ment had voted addresses to the queen, the prince re gent and the royal pair, on the auspicious event. London, May 4. The following is an extract of a letter from an officer of one of his majesty’s ships at St. Helena, to a gentle man in Taunton, dated the 2d of March last:— “Bonaparte has given two or three dinners since he lias been at his new house; but as they happened before our return from the Cape, we had no opportunity of be ing asked; he has not accepted any invitations yet—lie frequently rides; but he has a cordon of the 53d regi ment round his limits, which he must not exceed, nor can there be any communication in private with him; he is ■comfortable in his new house, but does not enter much into society—he employs himself sometimes in writing the transactions of his life; he reads a great deal; it is his ■principal amusement.” The same correspondent adds, which is a proof how rigidly the island is watched by our cruisers on that sta tion;— “Yesterday the Wellesly arrived here, and to-day a South Sea ship: but the latter is not allowed to anchor, and one of our lieutenants will go on board, and take charge of her while she stays here, after her arrival she will have no communication with the shore or any body .afloat except to get water, which will be supplied by our boats.” London, May 9. The letters by the French mail, confirm the intelligence we yesterday inserted, as to the free import of grain into France, that no port duties would be levied on ships load ed with corn, and that export articles in return would al- ^o be exported ditty free. The decree is dated 12th April, and has been sent into all the departments. It has not yet been published in any of the French newspapers, to avoid exciting apprehensions in the public mind. One of the letters adds, that the tonnage of goods ex ported duty free, is not to exceed the tonnage of goods imported. Last night we received the Paris papers of Sunday, and this morning of Monday last. Talleyrand, who set off for his seat at Valency about ten days ago, and whose departure was generally' consi dered as exile, is about to return forthwith to Paris, from whence* after a short stay, he will proceed to the Baths of Bourbonne. Some persons will attribute this speedy return to political causes. Perhaps we could give the real cause—which lias no relation, however, to politics.— The prince, hearing of the departure of the princess from London for Paris, has hastened back to Paris to welcome her return. His highness is known to be a model of con jugal attachment. The former secretary of Maret (Bassano) has been ta ken up at Geneva, and sent under an escort of gendarmes to the frontiers of France, where he was received by ano ther escort. Papers of the highest importance says an ar ticle from Geneva, were found, upon him. The Dutch papers contain an article from Rome, which states, that a great reform is making in the tribunals of the inquisition. The brief addressed by the pope to the con gregation employed in this business says, that accusation, ■denunciation and inquisition in matters of faith cannot give origin to a legal proceeding, which must be found ed in facts. All persons called in exculpation of the ac cused, of whatever theological communion they may be, shall be admitted in exculpation. Relations and ser vants are excluded from being heard either for or against the accused. The proceedings are to be public, and no witness, will be allowed to state hearsay evidence. Car dinal Fontana is stated to be the chief promoter of this measure. When the new code is completed it is to be sent to all the Catholic courts. Letters from Brussels state, that the duke of Welling- tonintends soon to visit the several corps of the army of oc cupation, Russian, Austrian, Prussian and Bavarian, which are cantoned in part of Champagne, Lorraine and Alsace. Sir Graham Moore is appointed one of the lords of the admiralty, in the room of lord Henry Paulett, who re tires through ill health. Daring robbery on the river Thame*.—Last night, be tween the hours of nine and ten, one of the hoys be longing to the East-India Company, was proceeding down the river with upwards of twenty chests of dollars, in order to be put on board the Lad} 1 Campbell, outward bound Indiaman, lying at Gravesend; when in Woolwich Reacn they were boarded by seven men in a large cutter, ■who overpowered the men on board the hoy, and con fined them under the hatchways; they immediately hove seven chests of dollars into,, their boats and rowed off. We have not heard that an)'of them have yet been taken. The whole of the city officers went down the river this morning in search, and a number of other officers from the different offices are in pursuit of the pirates. Intelligence received from Calcutta, per ship Liverpool. Accounts from Amretsir state, that Runjet Sing was atLahere. His attack on Rujoory was postponed, as Ak- bar Khan had offered obedience to him. Runjet had requested Aubud Khan to proceed to Na- hu, .and persuade the Goondas to enter his service, but Aubud had declined the mission. Runjet had avowed liis intention of proceeding against Cashmere as soon as he should compel the Rajahs of Rujoory to join him. The camp of Holkar was at Casla Dust, about three coss distance from Scarn Gurrah. Bapoojee Scmdia, and Justwant Rao Bhao, wereplun- <denng Khaorah, and other countries of Holkar. A re inforcement had been sent to-Bujna Khan, to assist in defending the port of Ghurzoon, which had been gar risoned by five hundred Arabs. A battle had been fought between Anam Sing, with the people of liachund, and the Noorklias at Khanda. Ameer Khawn was plundering at Salee Jankho, and in sisting on receiving his arrears of pay. Accounts from Jaypore state, that great apprehensions were entertained from the approach of two hostile ar mies, one under Amber Khawn, and the other composed of the troops of Scindes. Preparations were making for the defence of Jaypore. Luxno.v, May 10. The telegraph frames at the top of the admiralty are to be removed, and the improved semaphor, consisting of a hollow mast, from whence two arms project in va rious directions, will be erected in their stead. The uti lity of this invention is to be tried, by way of experiment, in a few days, from London to Sheerness, and the num ber of stations, it is said, will not exceed nine: several are erected. - A copy of a treasury minute, dated 23d February, 1816, printed by order of the house of commons, directs a sum of 2U,d0d/. out of the droits of the admiralty, to be paid in aid of the privy purse of the prince regent, towards the discharge of the expense of additional build ings and purchase of land made by his royal highness, and annexed to his private property, at Brighton; and the further sum of 50,0001 out of the same, for the ad ditional furniture for the s.ud additional buildings. "fire remains of lord Arthur Somerset, who, we are sorin' to learn, died on tue 2oth of last month at Lisbon, are to be removed from thence for interment, in the fa mily-vault atTregothan, Cornwall. Cherries made their first appearance this season on the 7th lust, at Covent garden market. They were sold at two guineas and a half per lb. The six frigates with troops, which lately sailed for the West-Indies from Portsmouth, it is supposed, are bound for Providence, where we understand, a serious commo tion had arisen among the black troops. By our letters from Paris, we find that Don Josf. Con- sock is the only one of the Spanish liberates who has been set at liherty. His release has been owing to a se vere fit of the gout, under which he labored when arrest ed. This shew*, however, that their arrest must have originated in some rriisconeeptkm, t>r that theorem* government sefes crime in the semblance of a Shadow, r Lonijon, May 11. * A .Flanders’ mail, andithe Paris, papers of Tuesday last, arrived yesterday. The intelligence received by the for mer is uramoortant. The French papers are equally des titute ofinterest, perhaps with the exception of anarticle in the Moniteur, detailing the proceedings of a meeting recently held in the French capital, and composed of in dividuals, who have been laboring some time with zeal, though we believe with little effect, to promote a crusade against the Barbary powers. Sir Sidney Smith is said to be the originator of this chivalrous scheme; and it is proba ble he is impelled by the indignation, natural to a gene rous mind, more than by a love of notoriety, in promoting this crusade against the piratical states. The Paris papers make no allusion to the causes of dis content, which are said to abound in France. Nor do they mention the multiplied arrests, which are stated, up on the authority of private advices, to have taken place last week in the capital. Some of those rumors may be exaggerated; but the silence of the French papers is no proof of their being false; as the conductors are under in junctions not to insert a paragraph that may have any tendency to agitate the public mind, or to point out the extent of the prevailing dissatisfaction. In the mean time it appears that a sudden and extraordinary bustle prevails in the cantonements of the army of observation; and the duke of Wellington, it is said, is about to commence a ge neral inspection of the whole, including the Austrian troops in Alsace. We have letters from Malta to near the end of March; they state that lord Exmouth’s expedition was amply pro vided with those powerful arguments m reasoning with corsairs, shot, shells, Congreve’s rockets, &.c. the show ot which contributed mainly to his lordship’s successful ne gotiations. The slaves released are mentioned at a num ber far beyond any previous computation; and it is even affirmed that thousands liad been already liberated. This is a glorious crusade. Six spots are at present visible on the sun’s disc. One of them is of considerable magnitude, and resembles a cluster of islands, situated very near to each other. Its breadth is at least equal to tile diameter of the earth.— Another of them is very dark, and surrounded by an um bra, or fainter snade. Chamber of Deputies, Paris, April 28. “Louis, &c. we have ordained as follows: “The session of 1815, of the cUamber of peers and deputies, is closed, 'file session of 1816 wiil commence on the 1st of October. “The present proclamation shall be carried to the chamber of deputies by our ministers of the marine and of finance. Louis,” &c. Paris, April 30. Count Pusignien, lieutenant-general in the king’s ar my, died, last Saturday, at lus notel in the Rue bt. Ho- nore. During the disastrous period ot the revolution, he contrived to retain his regiment (the cuaseurs ot Lorraine) in the most, steadfast loyalty. Louis XVI held him in the highest estimation. Paris, May 5. The council of revision decided yesterday on the ap peal of the king’s procurer against die judgment ot toe 26th April last, vvi uch acquitted general Cambrone, and ordered him to be set at liberty. After having deliberated tor an hour, the council de cided, by a majority of three to two, that the judgment of acquittal should be confirmed and immediately carried into effect. An expedition from the ports of Brest, Saint Malo and Rochefort, is destined to resume possession of the isles of St. Pierre and Miquelon. Next week, several individuals are to be tried before the correctional U\> anal, accused ot usiug seditious ex pressions in the villages adjacent to Paris. Paris, May 6. The duke de Chatre has taK.cn the oaths as first gen tleman of the chamber to the king. On Saturday, M. Pasquier, member of the chamber of deputies, late keeper of the seals, was thrown from ms horse at Mousseau, and had lus thigns dislocated by the fall. On the 3d, the municipal council of Paris ordered 6O,OU0 francs to be distributed among; tne' poor ot the twelve arrondisements. An earthquake, accompanied by a great noise m the air, has occurred in Norway. ■ The Gazette of Haarlem contradicts the report which had been circulated of the Russian corps bemg about tfz evacuate Maubeuge, Avesnes, 6tc. in order to proceed to tile Upper Rhine, and observes that tne assertion ' was entirely destitute of f'oundauon. The English papers ridicule the reports which have prevailed for some days at Pans as to great cnanges having taken place in the policy ot the amed powers. They in particular rank among the number oi laDies the account of a triple alliance between Russia, Prussia and the Netherlands, by a treaty in which England lias no participation. These journals, who pretend to be well informed, assert positively that no change has occurred in Lie dispositions of Lie alhed powers, and that they are ail desiious of maintaining that peace winch lias been established by the most soiemii conventions. A royal ordonnance, dated the od, contains Lie fol lowing - : “Full and complete amnesty is granted to every indi vidual prosecuted and condemned as abettor ot, or ac complice in, the desertion winch took place prior to Lie 1st of October, 1815. “We consequently remit all pains and penalties in curred for the said offence, with the exception oi pay ment of the expenses which have been adjudged.” On the 1st instant, count Jules de Pohgnac embarked at Calais for England, where lie is to mairy one ot the richest heiresses of Scotland. Funds, May 4.—Five per cent, consols, 58, 95-100.— Bank actions, 1060. Y’ou will observe that the French papers made no men tion of a conspiracy, or arrests having taken place at Pa ris; yet it is certain, that no less than three hundred per sons have been Liken into custody within these few days. Government are fearful of agitating the public mind on so tender a subject. It is probabie Liat none of the in dividuals thus arrested will be brought to trial, either for want of sufficient evidence, or tor fear of admitting the very existence of a conspiracy, at a. tune when all is described as peace, union and loyalty; or for fear of com mitting so delicate a case to the hazardous chance of a trial; for every trial which takes place at present may be considered as a contest between government and the public, which the judges decide according to the prevail ing influence of either; and public opinion now assumes a menacing tone, which arrests the sentence of the cor- ruptest judge. The appeal made for the acquittal of general Cam- bronne has, you will learn, been rejected. 1'he Journal General is this day suspended for having given a detailed account of the proceedings of the council of revision in tliis case, contrary to the express injunction- of govern ment. An article from Dijon, which appears in all the French papers, states the minister of war has given orders that all the military residing in the department of Cote d’Or are called into actual and immediate service, under se vere penalties. This, together with the late order for raising the fifty regiments, will, I hope, be admitted as a proof that go vernment are actually making military preparations.— The Due de Berri, who takes a very active part in the forming of this armament, inquired of Clarke the other day, whether he could promptly raise 150,000 men, which that minister confessed to be impracticable—Lien could he raise 100,000? The possibility of even such a levy as that appeared to him doubtful. “What,” said Lie duke, “you, who could raise myriads of men for the ser vice of the usurper, cannot raise so inconsiderable a force for that of the legitimate sovereigns.” The minis ter observed in reply, that times and things were alter ed; that he had every where to encounter either open re sistance, or what was efficient, the vis inertia. “Thijn” resumed the prince," if France wiil not fight for us, she must submit to her doom—a prey to the allies, She must share the fate of Poland.” But all private anecdotes apart, tha public and official accounts alone afford sufficient evidence of extraordmaiy levies of men and' money being made by the French court. No cause is assigned for them, and yet Liey must have a purpose, and Liat purpose cannot but anxiously engage Lie conjectures of all.—Morning Chronicle. Paris, May 7. The second council of war of the firs military division, will to-morrow proceed to the trial of general Bertrand by contumacy, who was exempted from Lie amnesty. In terms of the law, there can be no oral dispositions of witnesses, and noadypeato rifetvspeakin i’ui’oSof the ac cused. The reporter alone witffee heard.

Genoa, April 15. On the 11th of this month an English brig entered this port, having on board all his majesty’s subjects, 61 in number, who were in slavery in Algiers. The captain of Lie brig reports, that lord Exmouth’s squadron sailed from Liat port on the 5th April; after having happily ter minated with thedey of Algiers, the arrangement which he was commissioned to conclude. The English fleet was to sail for Tunis, and thence to Tripoli, for the same purpose, which fills with joy all the inhabitants of this duchy. Prom the official London Gazette. London, May 4.

At the conclusion of the marriage service, the registry of Lie marriage was attested with the usual formalities, after which her majesty the queen, his royal highness the prince regent, Lie bride and bridegroom, wiLi Lie rest of the royal family, reLred to the royal closet. The bride and bridegroom soon after left Carlton- house for Oatland’s, the seat of his royal highness the duke of York. Her majesty the queen, his royal highness the prince regent, and the rest of the royal family, passed into the great council chamber, where the great officers, nobility, foreign ministers, and other persons of distincLon pre sent, paid their compliments on the occasion. Immediately after the conclusion of the marriage, the park and tower guns were fired, and Lie evening con cluded with other public demonstrations of joy through out the metropolis. War-Office, May 4, 1816. His royal highness the prince regent has been pleased, in the name and on tlie behalf of his majesty, to appoint his serene highness Leopold George Frederick, prince of Saxe, Cobourg of Saalfeld, &.c. to be a general in the PARTICULARS. London, Mav 3. THE ROYAL WEDDING. The streets in the vicinity aftiie royal residences were crowded yesterday with people anxious to obtain a view of Lie royal bride and bridegroom. The line from Cha ring Cross to Carlton-house, and thence along the Mall in St. James’s Park, to the Queen’s palace, were fully oc cupied, and the fineness of the day corresponding with Lie interest, of Lie occasion, contributed to increase the multitude." The fepen space in Lie stable yard, in front of Cure nee-house, the residence of the prmce of Coburg, was crowded to excess with well dressed peo ple of all classes. Prine Leopold veiy frequenLy appeared at the bal cony, to graLfy their curiosity, dressed in a blue coat and a star; he bowed and smiled very pleasantly at their rejoicings. At ten o’clock, ten beautiful grey horses, the favorite color of the princess Charlotte, and which had been selected by sir B. Bloomfield for Lie princess and prince, stopped opposite to Clarence-house, on their way to OaUands, the residence of the duke and duchess of York, for Lie use of Lie prince and princess during their snort stay there. His serene highness came out to view them, and appeared highly pleased with their appearance. At two o’clock his serene highness went in a curricle to Caiton-house, and paid a morning visit to his intended bride. He also rode round Lie ex terior of Carlton-house to view his new travelling car riage. His serene highness afterwards returned to Cla rence-house about half past Liree o’clock, when the crowd became so great, that the footman in letting him out of the carriage, had nearly been pushed under it.— A number of women and children were forced into Cla rence-house against their will by Lie extreme pressure. In a few minutes after, his serene highness walked across to York-house, when the crowd behaved extremely or derly, and, at the request of a few attendants formed a clear passage for him to pass through; they however loudly huzzaed him; and he bowed to Lie populace. At four o’clock, the princess Charlotte of Walts went in a carriage to the queen’s palace, and had the windows down to gratify the curiosity of Lie crowd in Pall-Mall, which was found to be so extremely great, Liat Lie coachman could not, with safety, drive through it; he Lierefore returned and went through the Park. Her re sidence was again throng-ed with disLnguished person ages. The prince of Saxe Cobourg had a select jiarty to dinner, at half past five o’clock, at Clarence-house. The prince regent had a party to dinner at Carlton- house, consisting of the duke of Clarence, Lie lord Chan cellor, the bishop of Exeter, Lie right honorable John M £ Mahon, sir Benjamin Bloomfield, Mr. cnaucellor Leach, the rev. Mr. Blomberg, sir E. Nagle, &.c. Princesses Augusta, F.lizabeLi, Mary, and princess Charlotte of IVales dined with her majesty, at her pa lace. The princess Charlotte dressed at Lie Queen’s palace. A full guard of honor of the grenadier regiment of foot guards, preceded by the band of Lie Coldstream re giment of guards, marched from Lie parade hi St. James’s Park, into the Court-Yard of Carlton-house.— A party of life guards marched into Pall-Mall, with sir Nathaniel Conant and Mr. Biruie, Lie Bow street magis trates, at the head of about fifty officers and constables; and had it not been for their joint and great exertions, it would have been impossible for the couches to have drawn up, the street and those adjoining Liem being li terally chocked up with people. The hail of Lie queen’s palace was filled with ladies and gehtlemen elegantly dressed, most of them keeping their carriages, so that the Park had a similar appearance to a drawing room, all being anxious to see the lovely princess and the roy al family pass, upon this memorable occasion. About half past seven o’clock, Lie princess Sophia of Gloucester, arrived at the queen’s palace, to join her ma jesty and the princesses to Carlton-house. The princess Charlotte came down the grand staircase in a few mi nutes, conducted by princess Augusta, on her right and colonel Stephenson on her left, and proceeded to Lie entrance of the grand hall, where she, was met by the queen. The crowd in the Park exceeded all description. The voice of the people cheered princess Charlotte loudly all the way to Carlton-house, but the greatest order and de corum prevailed, although such an immense body of people. They enteredUarlton-house by the garden gate, where they were received by the prince regent; they ar rived exacLy at eight o’clock. The prince of Saxe Cobourg left Clarence-house a lit tle before half past eight o’clock. On his coming out to get into his carriage, he was as- sailed by numbers of females patting him on the back, and calling for blessings on him, &c. this gave a number ot men, in Lie delay thus occasioned, an opportunity to tak£ the traces from Lie carriage, and draw him without horses; they were prevailed upon to desist, but they act- ed so a second time, and the prince, it is supposed, would have indulged them in their desire had accidents not been feared; and by the exertions ofthe centinels the traces were put to the carriage again, and proceeded to Carlton 1 ’HisI ‘ stthe lofldhuzzas ofthe pormi, hnessamved at Carlton House at ha/pJt g , i - Kent, &c.

The royal family, Lie duke and dutchess of Orleans and the prince of Saxe Cobourg, were conducted to the royal closet. The royal attendants from the door of the closet to the great crimson room, (where the marri- age was solemnized,) which had previously been fitted up for the occasion wiLi a temporary altar, covered with crimson velvet, the crimson velvet cushions from the chapel royal, St. James’ palace, and aiso«*the pray er books, &-c. the large massy candlesticks, plate, 8cc. from Wliitehajl chapel. The whole ofthe foreign ambassadors and ministers who were all specially invited by Robert Chester, esq’ the assistant master of the ceremonies, according to usage arid etiquette, to be witnesses to the solemnization of Lie nuptials of the royal pair, to enable them to rt. port to their different courts that they were witnesses of it. Their ladies were also invited. They all p ro . ceeded to the great crimson altar. At Lie time appointed for her majesty to leave the closet, her full attendants were conducted across the grand hqll, and also the full attendants upon the prince regent, except those in waiting upon the queen and prince regent. The princess Charlotte and prince of Saxe Cobourg, remained in Lie closet. The procession then moved through the suite of rooms towards the altar as follows: The lords of the council who were in the commission, authorising the marriage, Sec. Sec. The Whole being assembled, they filled the spacious room, the ceremony being ready to be proceeded on, the lord chamberlain returned to the closet and con- ducted the prince of Saxe Cobourg to the altar: his lord- ship then went again to conduct tue princess, and was accompanied by the duke of Clarence, who conducted his royal niece on his arm to the altar, where she was re. ceived bv the prince regent. The ceremony was per formed in the most solemn and impressive manner by the archbishop of Canterbury, and the whole was as in- teresLng a scene as ever took place in Carlton house. The princess Charlotte was given away by her rovai fa ther Lie prince regent. His royal highness appeared in excellent health. He was dressed in regimentals, and wore all his splendid and disLnguished orders. The Rus sian order of the fleece was particularly brilliant. Ifi s royal highness handed the queen to a state chair to Al right of the altar where her majesty sat during Lie ce remony. At the conclusion, the royal pair retired arm and arm, and received Lie hearty congratulation of all present. The bridemaids were lady Charlotte Cholmondekt lady Caroline Pratt, lady Susan Ryder, the hon. .Mi-, Law, and Miss Manners, and his grace the archbishop of Canterbury’s daughter.

MEXICAN NEWS. The republican general Morellos, made prisoner ti the royalists, was carried before the tribunal of the in quisition, m the city of Mexico, and condemned as a he: etic, atheist, deist, materialist, and for other crimes, oi the competence of Lie holy tribunal; he was also con demned by the archbishop, degraded in consequence, and given up to the military tribunal, who condemned him to deaLi, and he was executed on the 22d of Decem ber last. It w as in vain that the republican government by ma ny petitions addressed to the viceroy Caliejas, reel, lin ed the observance of the laws of war; in vain did it seek to employ the influence of the cabildo of the me- I iropolis, to save at least the life of Lie prisoner—the tyranny, superstition, and fanaticism, which excrc.ses openly its sway in the capital of the new world, sacri ficed a most virtuous patriot, whose courageous valor had fixed Lie attention and merited the applause of the world; ill such a manner that the services and exertions of five -years, consecrated to the safety of his country* will cause him to live forever in Uieir hearts, and his name will be handed down to the latest posteri ty- !

The royalis’’ collected 5000 men to attack that posiLon occupied by the patriots; twice they attacked, and twice were tin " assaults repulsed with great loss: not being able to suc ceed by (open force, they had recourse to intrigue and seduction. Joseph Maria Lascano, the lieutenant com manding the force which defended the bridge, sold him self to general Miyares for 8,000 dollars. The garriso® was incorrupLble; but seeing itself abandoned by its perfidious leader, who had gone over to the enemy s camp, it made dispositions for a retreat, which was ef fected without oLier loss than that of the artillery of too heavy a jnBbre to be removed.
