ilie King's nbsencc lo the Continent, n liich is slated to be but a short time.— j he administration will consist of the duke of York, the Archbishop of Canter bury, and the cabinet ministers. Batavia Journals of the 28th of April jrive an account of n terrible earthquake which look place on the 29th of Decem ber last, on the south coast of Celebes. It did immense damage, especially at Boelmkombia, where the sea rose sever al times to a prodigious height, and then filling with incredible rapidity, alter- nately deluged and left the shore, de stroying nil the plantations from Bon- tame to Boelackomba. Many hundred per*ons have lost their lives. The fort of Boelaekomlm was much damaged Chat of Bontaine less so. From the London Courier, Sept. 18. The following ure extracts from Paris pa- * CrS ’ , Madrid, Sept. 3. Extract of a private letter in the Moniteur. “ It is now ton o’clock at night, and some ferment prevails In the capital. 1 shall state to you what gives rise to it. Yesterday, a courier arrived from Saragossa, _ with des patches for the Government, the contents of which were not at first publicly known. A few hours afterwards an estafatte was dis patched with an order to General Biego to give up the military command of Anagon, and to retire to Lerida, where he would be under the orders of the government. To day another courier has arrived from Sara gossa. Bis despatches were of such impor tance that they occasioned the assembling of the permanent deputation, which joined the Ministerial Council, and they held a long sit ting together. The news ivas aftewards circulated that the political chief of Saragossa deemed it expedient to cause Gen. Bit-go to be arrested ; that that town and the entire province were in a state of great commotion and that several corps of troops had receiv ed orders lo march upon Arrugon. There is no doubt in Madrid, that Riego had in view to put himself at the head of a Republic.— Tue club Fontana is crowded ; the heading orators zealously defend the cause of Riego, whose conduct and principles they vindicate against the rumoured imputations. Numer ous patroles parade the streets. The politi cal chief, who owes his safety solely to the court he pays to the demagogues, has just harrangued the people ut the Puerta de Sol Mr. Leach, Vice Chancellor of England is momentarily expected In this capital ; he lias ’..'ft London charged with an important mission to our Government. Irun. Sept. 7 From the Gazette de France. During some days past, it was suspected that a secret faction had it in view to over throw the Government. Stones were thrown at the military several evenings successive ly ; a grenade was launched on the proman ode, and many similar eftbrts made to excite disorder. On the 29th ult. groups oftlieciti eons in different quarters, cried “ A repub lie for ever,” which excited much alarm. On the following day, an individual named Villa- mour, who was designated as the principal agent of the faction, was taken into custody, which measure had the effect of calming the general agitation. On the 21st, an extraordinary courier ar rived from Madrid, bringing the dismissal of lliego, and an order for the departure of Regiment called, the “Constitution,” and dors to several officers of other corps to pro need instantly to certain specified places, General Riego was commanded to repair to Lerida, and the Political Chief was authori sed to exercise provisionally _ the civil and military functions of the province. lliego who was at Bojaraloz, about 10 leagues from Saragossa, became furious when he read the order, which was accom panied with an injunction from the Political Chief that lie should not re-enter Saragossa. Ho replied that he would return to that city and the next day presented himself at the gates with a detachment of about 100 ca valry. In the mean time, measures had been taken to prevent his entrance, and the town had all the appearance of a place about to be besieged. Finding that Riego vviw resolute, a deputation of military officers went out and remonstrated with him as to the serious con sequences which would inevitably ensue, if he persisted in his project. He yielded . their counsel and set off lor Lerida. Pic tiuets were stationed to prevent a surprise. On the 28th and 3lst ult. and 4th inst, three Proclamations were addressed by the Political Chief to the inhabitants, informing them that an important conspiracy had been crushed in its birth, and calling upon them to maintain the rallying sentiment—“ the Con stitution or death !” Riego has addressed a proclamation to *« the brave soldiers and patriots of the army of Arragon,” dated Pina, Sept. 3, in which lie exclaims against the irregular manner *n which lie has been dismissed from the mili tary command of the province ; a step, which he considers bus been provoked by atrocious calumnies, and solemnly vows his unshaken devotion to the constitutional cause. INDEPENDENCE OF MEXICO. Charleston, Nov. 18. Through the politeness of Lieut. Kearney, of the Enterprize, we have been favoured with Havana papers to the 8d inst. inclusive, from which we have translated ihe follow ing. as the only article of interest contained In them:- , Iavana , 0 ct. 30, 1831. By the arrival of the schr. Margaretta, in 4 (lays from Campeachy, news has Ween ic- ,wived ill this city, Ws late as the Gath u t. from the Mexirati Capital, and to the 4tli inst. from Vera Cruz. These accounts mention the approaching entry of Iturbide into the Metropolis of New Spam, and the nomination of the individuals who were to oimpnsc the Supreme Junta of Government until the convocation of the Cortes We have also received a file of the l“ crt - | f . cn a paper published at Merida, (Yucatan) k and from it, we collect that that Province declared itself independent on the 15th of September last, and was determined to fol- [ |„w the fortunes of the imperial Leader ol the Army of the three Guarantees. There is no longer a doubt, that the Inde pendent Cause, which had already reached the Banks of the Sabine, would extend thro vast and rich Provinces, to the Isthmus of Darien, the boundary of the Spanish domin ions in North America ; which in the cause or race of independence, has, throughijh- miming of Iturbide, and Inquisitorial I nests, (Ar outstripped the Southern Dominions of the same Power in the New World^,^ aOUTII^MERICA. The Coreo National or Maracaibo of 8th Sept, contains an interesting convention en tered into by the junta of Guayaquil, with General Sucre, of the Columbian staff, by which that province is united under the go vernment of the Columbian Republic ; nnd representatives were to depart for Cucula. At St. Martha the 1 Ith September, orders were received from General Bolivar to pro vide quarters, subsistence and transports fora force of 4000 men ; the object of this exped ition, which is composed of the best troops of the republic, among which are 3000 men of the guards of Columbia, is supposed to he the isthmus of Panama, as that is now the only spot where Spanish authority ex ists south of that place; and the importance of which cannot be sufficiently appreciated but by those who are acquainted with the relations of South America. In Panama, as Peru and Mexico, it seems the same kind of confusion prevails, there being two vice roys, Samono the old viceroy of Nuw- Grenada, and Morgeon the new viceroy, who appeared some time since along with O’Dnnoliu and retired lo Maracaibo and Jamaica, where the Spanish merchants generously presented him 50 doubloons ; If* has since passed to Porto Bello, and there holds disputed empire, which the expedition of Bolivar will soon determine. Cumana appears, by advices received from Murgarita, to hare fallen into the hands of the republicans. The garrison of the place on the 23d Sept, were ordered to sub sist upon the carcasses of their horses, of which only 16 remained at the capitulation. The vigilance of (lie blockading squadron at Carthagena, was such, and the blockade so strict, that the town was deprived of its greatest resource, the fishery j an attempt was made in September, to introduce suc cors, in three transports, convoyed by the frigate Lcgera ; but the frigate wbr obliged to retire by tho gun-boats of the blockading flotilla. The people of the archipelago of Chiloc, to.the south of Chiloe, had publicly declar ed their independence of the Spanish mon city. It was the cabildo of Lima, that was placed in charge of the municipal administra tion, by the orders of general St. Martifc The Spanish officer La Serna, hud no coqy ccrn in the affairs of the country, which were wholly conducted by the independent au thority. The columns of the patriot army, which had been dispatched on an expedition to the southward of Lima, had fallen in with three successive divisions of the royalists, at Areqnipa, - Ptinn, and Lupaa, and had de feated them. The royal battalion of Arequi pa, hud joined therepuhlican standard with their arms and stores. The Spaniards who escaped on those occasions, fled towards Arica, to which province the royal General Ramirez, who commanded in Upper Peru, had also retreated with his army, which had been reduced to between 1200 and 1500 men. The flight of the royal fugitives was marked by a desperation that is remarkable; they plundered the habitations through every place they passed ;nor did they spare the churches, which they dismantled of every thing valuable.—Aurora. penny worth wiaa which the wonan bad regaled herself with, was the circum stance that constituted the charge, and which if substantiated, would be punisha ble by tire or ten years’ imprisonment. The jury were much moved at the he roic simplicity of this courageous woman, who, from her infancy, hnd lived but to servo her country. She spoke of her wounds as of trifles which gave her no concern. She was acquitted unanim ously, and a subscription commenced for her, to testify the interest she had in spired. RECORDER. MH.LKDUKVILLE, Tubsbav, November 27. The General Assembly are still en gaged chiefly oh business of a local or privato nature. Before the Mouse of Representatives is a bill to repeal the act allowing Debtors the privilege of prison bounds ; and also, one to provide for the permanent endowment of the Universi ty. This last bill proposes to make an appropriation for the aupport of versity of $ 8000, iti lieu of the proMfrty from which the funds of that Instjtiition are now derived. The bill to fl* the salaries and fees of the public officers, lias passed the House and is now before Senate. It makes no alteration in the present salary of the Governor Judges, Attorney and Solicitors General The Salaries of the other State Officers and the fees of county officers are re duced to the old standard, prior to the^J' increase of compensation in 1818. It will not, it is thought, pass the Senate in its present shape, if it does at all. the writer undertakes to justify tome of its horrible features. He ha9 no objection to its monarchy—to a national religion—to the odious laws of primogeniture and entail, and to tiie nobility itself. Thus it is that an A- mcrican can put himself forward as the friend of king, loros and an established church; *iot in relation to tho English people alone, hot on broad, abstract principles. Such doctrines in this country beggar all commen taries. Whoever runs, may read their ab surdity. USURY. Extract from the Speech of Governor Skinner, delivered to the Legislature of Ver mont. on the 12th ult. “ The declaration of the Council of Cen sors, that tlie law regulating the rate of in. (crest, is “ grossly and openly violated,” corroborated by the testimony arising from commbn observation, inspires the hope, that the Legislature will, by, an early attention to the subject, be enabled to act definitely thereon. Although it is the general opinion, and in which I fully concur, that lews calcu lated to limit the demand* of money lenders are beneficial to society; I am well persuad ed, that if, as the Council of Censors alledge, the existing law does not afford an effectual remedy, but “ is violated by a large portion or our monied citizens," instead of answer ing any useful purpose, it is productive of serious evil. As a good principle, it is inex pedient to retain upon the record* of the State an inefficent law.—The statute refer red to, was designed principally for the ben efit and protection of the necessitous—to shield against the oppression of the wary capitalist, those who from embarrassed cir cumstances, are compelled to apply for pe cuniary aid to others, who possess the means. The premium that is now paid, for the supposed risk of incuring the penalty would not be extorted, if from the provisions of the law there was no prospect of escape, or ir it was wholly repealed ; and in either case, the exemplary citizen, who From princi ple conforms to the law, would enjoy an e qnal privilege with him whose avarice lire strained only by necessity.” EXTRAORDINARY COWS. At the Brighton (Massachusetts) Cattle Show the premium, lor the best milch cow, New-York, Nov. Extract of a letter to a gentleman in this city, just received from Havana, Oct. 10. The new Vice Roy has arrived at Mexico with the insurgent Chief, where conference has taken place with the Captain General of Mexico, nnd an ar mistice for six days, which we presume, will lead to the desired point of settling all disputes between the two parties, and Mexico and Vera Cruz will, like qll the rest of New Spain, be declared in dependent. The object of the new Vice Roy is to have the constitution adopted through out the kingdom, but the clergy, wh ore powerful, oppose it; as in that case the inquisition must immediately fall, and the convents pass inte the hands of the government, to be sold in order to pay the public debt. The inquisition has become so much detested in Spain ns, well as here, where all its horrors are burlesqued oa the stage, that I cannot bring myself to believe that the people of New Spain will permit it to be patron ized in that kingdom, notwithstanding their promise to the Clergy while they were endeavouring to gain their inde pendence, which they cannot now be deprived of; and they will not be in fluenced by the fear of excommunica tion, which is not now so much dreaded as formerly. The conduct of General Jackson to wards the Governor of Pensacola now occupies the public mind, together with the attack of Col. O’Hennelly, with an armed force on the night of the 13th Oc tober, on tho office of El Tio Bartolo, whose Editor fortunately was out. The intelligence brought by the late arrivals from Europe, indicates the ap proach of a revolutionary struggle in Spain, not unlike that which so long and violently agitated Fraoce. In every part of Spanish America, where opposition to Monarchy has been made, the cause of Independence is prosperous—from Mexico to Peru, the power of Spain o- ver this most extensive and valuable country appears to be almost annihila ted. Extract of a letter dated, Malaga, (Spain) 18th Sept. “ I fully believe this country is not very far from a storm ofa civil nature j every thing portends it ; and at present there is in fact no government, the whole of the ministers having refused to serve any longer, and Mr. Ferdinand does not like to°renirn to Madrid. Therefore you may be assured that some catastro phe will soon take place, unless it is pre vented by the genius of some man at pre sent not to be found in Spain.” militarTTieroine. The following case came before the court of Assize at Metz, in France, ear ly in the month of August. A woman was brought up, for exam ination, on a charge of vagraucy, and al so of having used violence to wrong some of the citizens. It appear* that she had served as a soldier, from the age of 21 to her 64th year, during which she had fought fin der the command of Luckner and d’Es- taing, and had served as a trumpeter for 29 years in Italy, Egypt, Germany, and Russia, where she was taken prisoner and sent into Siberia for the last three years. She bad quitted Russia and re turned to her native country to end her days in peace. She had claimed no re muneration for her wound* at the hands of the minister.

FROM THE ENQUIRER The last No. of tha Worth American Re view published at Boston, presents certain political views which disgrace the book in which they are exhibited. They are such as no American ought to indulge. Read the following extract and judge for yomaalf* The writer is reviewing Cottu’s essay on tha criminal law of England; in the course #f which he enters into a contrast of the merits anil demerits of the British constitution s “ For ourselves, we profess that we think the English frame of government better ad apted to its object thnn any of which the world has yet hud full experience. We now consider our own constitutions as out of the question ; whatever may be our opinion of them, nnd however encouraging may be the promise they bold forth, we do not consider them as yet sufficiently tried, to be brought into comparison with those which have stood the test of ages. But while wc place this famous scheme of policy far before any other of ancient or modern times, we still think it comes very much short of perfection. At the same time that wc see in its provisions a great deal to admire, we discover in its defl- cienccs not a little to deplore. Wc would not ask Great Britain to renounce monarchy but wc could wish that the influence of the crown were less powerful and direct. We admire the construction of parliament, in the mutual dependence of the two houses on each other: and the manly freedom of their proceedings. We should he better sat isfied if the doors of the upper house were never opened but to those who had earned the distinction by public services, and if the floor of tile lower were less often the arena of contending candidates for place. 'We re spect and esteem that love of order and re vercnce for religion which has established and upheld a national form of worship, which protects with pious care the temples of God, and places his ministers by the side of the proudest nobles of the land. Wc sincerely regret that this sacred order should he sup ported by a tax so odious and unequal us that of tytlics. Much more flo wo lament that a slight deviation from the national creed should exclude a very large portion of the people, who contribute their full share of the burden, Washington, November 5. Almost every day furnishes some fresh evidence of increasing activity in the dif ferent branches of domestic manufactures, This most be an acceptable fnct to every one who values the entire independence of the country—tho more especially as this flattering progress is not the effect of ex travagant premiums, exacted for the benefit of manufactures from Ihe other branches of domestic industry. Our manufacturers owe their present encouragement, and their pros pects of future success, in a great measure, i:o a less exceptionable nnd less precarious cause than governmental bounties—they ewe it to their improved skill, their economy and industry, ami the increasing preference given by our citizens to domestic fabrics. These are the true enenurngers of domestic manufactures, and we are happy to find that experience is every day demonstrating their adequacy. When our manufacturers shall learn to rely on these aids alone, a reaction will be the result, decisively favorable to the perfection and stability of our manufactures. Those who prefer domestic fabrics now, sti mulating to greater Improvement, will create by that improvement greater inducements for the preference, until the exclusive con sumption of our own fabrics will become general throughout the country. Our attention is called to this subject at S resent by a letter from Bostuu, which we nd published in the New Hampshire Pat riot. The letter states that large quantities of American cloths had been sold in the Boston market within a month ; that their superior quality and color made them much sought for, and ensured a ready sale. The letter states, further, that wool finds there a good market, such is the demand for that article; and that from one hundred thousand to three hundred thousand pounds of wool had been imported from Europe for the use of our manufactories. Another article which has just now at tracted our notice, relates to the iron manu facture—a branch of home manufactures which we are more pleased to see doing well, hecauuiit is the most important, perhaps, of thorn an, and was said to be less prosperous than some others. The article to which |ve refer is a letter from the township of Peru in the interior of New York, and describes the iron business there as in the most flour ishing condition.—The letter says, “ it is truly astonishing to see what is going on here “ in the iron business ; new forges are con- “ tinually going up, which have been put in “ motion by an excitement to explore the “ interior resources of our country, as the “ canals approach their completion. A “ number of gentlemen, from other states, “.have been here this summer, exploring the “ river for mill seats, with the view of erect- “ ing new works."—.Vat. hit. 40 dollars, was awarded to John Stone, of Marblehead, for his Cow, raised nt Lynn.— His application Was accompanied by Written documents nnd satisfactory proofs that his cow had produced from the 1st of June to near the day of the Show from 14 to 9 pounds of butter per week, averaging It pound* through the wholu time. It was the only case duly authenticated, and surpassed even Ihe. verbal statements, often loose, of the o- ther claimants. There were many other valuable cows exhibited, several of which obtained premiums. At the Essex County (Massachusetts) Cat tle Show, the committee reported : “ That Mr. Joshua Lovett made on his farm io Beverly, from the milk of six cows, five hundred and eight pounds of good but ter, in the year 1821, between the 20th day of May nnu the Otli day of October. The eows were kept in a common pasture from the 20tli of May until the 3d of .September, and afterwards in Fall feed, and were fed with the thinnings of half an acre of cut-ruts, and the suckers that grew on one acre of corn. The quantity of butter produced from these eows, between the 1st of May nnd the 15th day of October, in the same year, was five hundred and ninety pounds and there whs made within that time, from the milk of the saioa cows, nine hundred and ten Ih*. of cheese. The Committtru were of opinion that Mr. Lovett was entitled to the first premium on tills article. The committee received a statement from Col. John Francis, of Beverly, that from the milk of three cows, kept on his firm, was made three hundred and fourteen pounds of good butter, in. the yeur 1821, between the first day of June and the 80th of Sept, nnd during the snme time, was made from the milk of the same cows six hundred fifty- three and three qimrters pounds of cheese. The rules end regulations of the Trustees do nut offer any premium, for good butter produced by iHess number of cows than four, made on any farm, from the 20th day of May to the Clh October. This case there fore, not coming within the rules, neither as respects lime or number of cowsj could not have tiny premium awarded by the com mittee although it might have yielded, in proportiun to the number of cows, better than the one for which a premium was a* Warded.

We leatn from Albany, that it was expect ed the Convention would adjourn this day On Wednesday, a committee of three, con sisting of Messrs. Root, Hunting and Steele was appointed to prepare a respectful ad dress to the people of this state, to be pre sented with the Constitution that shall be approved by the Convention. From Laguira—The fast sailing schooner Endymion, which arrived yesterday, sailed from Laguira on the 26th ult. aud brought Carnccas papers of the 18th. The official intelligence of the capture of Lirpit, had reached Laguira. Cumana had capitulated to the Patriots, and the Spanish garrison was sent to Porto Rico, at t heir own request not being willing to go to Porto Cabellu, which latter place, it was expected, would suon be obliged to surrender. not only from the honors and emo luments of the church, hut from the exercise and enjoyment of some of the dearest and most valuable rights and privileges of citi zens. Wo are far from underrating the law regulating the descent of landed property, which, while it upholds the consequence and independence ofthe nobility by perpetuating that superiority of fortune which is essential to tho proper influence of the aristocratic branch, has the happy effect of reducing the younger members of great families to a level with the people, by raising a mutual depen dence between them for service and support. It is a cause of painful reflection, however, that this happy provision should be accom panied with some remains of feudal oppres sion that almost outweighs its advantages.” We shall scarcely deign to notice the way, in which this heedless writer gives the go-by to our own constitution. We have tried it for 33 years. It has stood the shock of war and or parties. The nation has thriven un der it to a most extraordinary degree of prosperity ; and yet we cannot pronounce upon its merits !

Horatio Gates Cilley, Esq. of Deerfield New-Hampsliire, who obtained the first and second premiums on Indian corn in this county, we learn raised from one piece mea suring three acres one hundred and sixteen square rods, 37C bushels. This probably ex ceeds in quantity uny other crop on so much ground ever raised in New England. The land was broken up from the sward in the summer of 1820, and was prepared in the following manner last spring: twenty loads of common winter straw manure to the acre were spread, ploughed in very deep, and the ground was harrowed—afterwards ten loads of fine immure to the acre were spread, iloughed in nearer to the surface, and the and was again harrowed. Chains were then drawn each way at the distance of I 1-2 feet, ns a mark for the place of each hill, and four kernels planted. At the first hoeing, tlwee stalks only were left in Ihe hill—and at the second hoeing, every sucker was care fully taken from tlie field. By this time the ground was so much burdened with tho growing corn, that it could not be again ho ed. The method of ascertaining the quanti ty was this ; indifferent persons under oath surveyed each acre, gathered the corn, husk ed and measured it in tlie ear in baskets— when dried it was shelled and measured, aud this quantity multiplied hy the whole number of baskets, gave the quantity to the acre. On being questioned as to the expense of this modeof culture, Mr. Cilley answered, that, independent of the crop of corn the worth of the stalks alone for feeding cattle was sufficient to pay for the labor on the land the present year. Next to Mr. Cilley, it deserves to bo men tioned that Mr. Bradbury Robinson, of Greenland, raised the greatest quantity of Indian corn to the acre,being 101 bushels. It will be observed that Mr. Robinson ob tained both the premiums for two seperate acres of oats being 50 bushels to the acre. [JY. H. Pat.) New-Orleans, Oct. it The manner in which the Spanish officers recently arrived.here from Pensacola, have been permitted to speak in the public news papers of General Jackson, is a striking ex emplification of the freedom of the Ameri can press, and of American generosity and liberality. But a* they have appealed to public opinion against the conduct nnd mo tives ofa veteran, whose fame and person are dear lo this community, they cannot complain if they themselves should be brought before the same tribunal. It is known that there were three Span ish officers, natives of Louisiana, in tlie Brit ish fleet which brought the army of General Packcnham to the banks of the Mississippi in the year 1814. Wo perfectly well recol lect the report which was current at the time that such was the fact, and fthere are indi viduals nowin New-Orleans, who saw then in the British fleet. It is said that one of them was called hy tho name of Guillemard and it appears that one of the names sul scribed to tho note published in yesterday Gazette, is also Guillemard. The questio is, whether the person now in New-Orleans, who signed the note just mentioned, is the same who accompanied the British array* which was defeated by General Jackson /" 1814-15 We hope and trust, for the honor of hu man nature, that Mr. Guillemard, who is now here, will make it appear that he is not tho same person. We believe that no gallant soldier, or honest man, would lie accessary to the plunder and ravage of his native land, and we fre.C)y offer our columns to Mr. Guil lemard for the publication of any thing that may dear him of tlie reproach which rumor lias attached to him.— Gaz. i jfju* MU to /fourth c< ■ IOJI* ivemher 27 AUGUSTIN HARRIS, seventy four dollars, eighty three and one' cents, value received, this 22d.
