Soutii Amiuuca.—The Congress of Pe

of “ Father and Saviour of the Country ;”
and he is to enjoy perpetually that of Presi-
I dent of the Republic. He is also antlioriz-

The nows of the rejection of tho CathO'

latter, it made a great noise, and tho most
serious consequences woro anticipated,, by
some of the niters on the subject.
London, [Evening) May 14.—German pa
pers received this morning, contain further
details of tho situation of affairs in tho Mo
res, extracted from Italian papers—a source
of intelligence on which but little reliance
can be placed. The failure of Ibrahim Pa
cha’s expedition is still asserted ; but there
iB nevertheless a manifest alteration of tnne,
as to the dangerous position in which he
waS said to be placed, with reference to a
meditated attack by the Greeks. Ibrahim
is said to have been disappointed in his ex
pectation of being joined by partisans, as
Bonn as he should land on the Morea: but
we no longer hear of tho total lies'ruction
tnwhich his army was doomed. It will in
deed, bo seen from ‘ the frontiers of Italy,"
that the Egyptian army occupies a fortified
position on the western point of the Moron,
which it would require a more formidable
force to dislodge than can be brought for
ward by the Greeks. Redschid Pacha,
too, is preparing to co-nperato with Ibra
him’s forces and the operations detailed at
the conclusion of the statement, may pre
clude all doubt of tho Turks havingresolved
to bring a more effective force into activity,
thnn has been yet arrayed against the
Greeks.

The accounts from Grecee are not so fa
vorable as they have hitherto been.—
Tha London Courier of the 26th May, ac
knowledges the receipt of Frankfort papers
qs late as May 17, which contain a letter
from Syra, dated April 8, in which it is sta
ted “that the Turks landed at Modon, had
given up the seige of Navarino, divided
themselves into two columns,and penetrated
eight leaguoe into the interior of Messina,
tavaging and burning every thing in their
Wav, The intestine quarrels of tire Greeks
fir from inclining to a conciliation in the
impending danger, have broken out witli
fresh violence. The Hydroits refused to
put to sea till they received their arrears of
pay ; Conduiiotti, tho President, had been
in person to Hydra, to persuade the captains
ef the ships to sail. But at a meeting hold
for the purpose, Conduriotti had refused
to give to the captains a detailed ac.
count of the sums received from the Eng
lish Loan, on which one of them in a pas-
■ion, fired a pistol at the President’s broth
er, but missed him. The assembly broke
tfp, and Conduriotti left Hydra without ha
ving effected ony thing. It is unfortunate
ly certain that the Turks have an under
standing with the petty chiefs in the Mo.
’ rea, and if they continue to act with union
and energy, while the strength of the
Greeks is broken by internal dissentiona,
the issue of the campaign is hardly doubt-
f.l.
The English funds and every species of
foreign investment are said to have fallen in
the most alarming manner. A general
gloom was said to pervade the market.—
The extent of the speculations, the fall of
nearly 5 percent without any political cause,
has not been experienced tor a series of
years, and it is not remembered, during any
time of the late war, that the fluctuation
was greater or the public mind more exci
ted.
The bill for releasing bonded grain, and
for admitting Canadian corn, has been read

The London Gazette announces the ap

as Governor of Grenada ; Maj. Gen. Jas.
Pat. Rose, Governor of Antigau; Lord
Strangford, Ambassacor to Russia j and

It appears by papers laid before Parlia
ment, that the claims of American citizens,
for sales and property captured during the
late war, was £380.320 6h, and the amount
allowed by the Commissioners, £334,594

those of London, or any single port in the
world. They last year amounted to £20,-

On the 16th of May, Mr. Canning laid
on tho tabic of the British House of Com
mons, a treaty between Sweden and Great
Britain, relative to the slave trade. Ac
cording to the London Courier, he held
this language on the occasion :
“ He would take that opportunity to state
—and ho did so with extreme regret—that
a similar treaty whicli was in progress with
the United States of America, had been,
since the late change of Governors in that
couutry, broken off, in consequence of the
positive refusal of the New President to ac
cede to it i official notice of which had been
received from that government.’’
A change of Governors! John Quincy
Adams, Governor of the United States,
would be considered a singular sound on
this side tho Atlantic, although it appears
not to be se considered in the British House
of Commons.
In the Madrid Official Gazette of the 21st
of April last, appears a declaration of King
Ferdinand, which breathes the very spirit of
despotism, and tiie quintcscciice of legitima
cy. As it is the fashion to print in letters
of gold. Royal opinions adverse to human
rights, how shall we blazon furl li this pre
cious mnreeau to the admiring world ? To
add to its native lustre, however, were
vain——itH unadorned beauties will recom
mend it. We cannot permit oiirseiveB to
add to nr sulmtract from its intrinsic value.
“ I have learned, with the most lively sor
row, says this enlightenedand liberal-mind
eil “ Governor” of Spain and the Indies,
that, for some time past, alarming reports
have been circulated insidiously, tending to
prnduen the belief that I am counselled, and
indeed am to be obliged to make innovations
in the present system of government, by al ■
tering the ancient laws of the State,and set
ting limits to my Royal authority.” How so
unreasonable and unwarrantable a supposi
tion could for a moment exist, is inexplica
ble, and no one will doubt the sincerity of
the declaration which immediately followa.
To dissipate entirely such suppositions, is,
for me, a duty and a gratification.”
In consequence, “ continues this pink of
Royalty,” I declare that not only am I re
solved to maintain entire and in all thoir
plenitude tho rights ofmy sovereignty, witli-
out yielding at any time the smallest part
of it, nor permitting the establishment of
Legislative chambers or other institutions,
under whatever name, contrary to our
laws and repugnant to our habits ; but even
that I have the most positive assurance that
nil my angUBt allies will continue to sustain
the authority of my crown,without advising
or proposing, directly or indirectly, any in-
novation in the forms of my government.”
If this declaration satisfies the people of
Spain, we have no reason to complain—
long may they enjoy it!

General Sucre is to enjoy the title ef
“Grand Marshal of Ayacuchoj” and all

A formal vote of thanks to the Republic
of Colombia, as a testimonial of gratitude
for her services, has been forwarded by tho
Peruvian Congress, to the formor.
Bolivar was establishing Lancasterian
Schools in Peru.
The Baltimore Chronicle states, that the
Secretary of the Navy has despatched an
efficient force to scour the coast of North
Carolina, in search of the piratical veBuel
supposed to liuvo been committing depre
dations on our commerce.
The Senate of the state of New-York,
sitting in the city of New-York, as a Court
for tho Trial oflmpeaohments and tho Cor
rection of Errors, appointed a Committee,
consisting of Mr. Burt, Mr. Spencer, Mr.
Colilon, Mr. Gardner, and Mr. Ogden, to
wait on General Lafayette, and request
him to meet the Members of the Senate ii»
the room occupied by them in the City-Hall,
on Monday the 4th July, at ten o’clock.
Lafayette The General arrived in
New York on tho 3d inst. and would par
take on the next day, the anniversary of in
dependence, of the dinner of the corporation
to which himself, the Cincinnati, and three
hundred other guests wore invited. In the
evening, lie was to attend the Theatre.—
The celebration would be one of the most
splendid on record—-every steam-heat from
Philadelphia, (one thousand arrived in two
of them) and the interior was crowded fur
several days preceding, with visiters, and
every house was occupied to overflowing
The general is never wearied of doing
good—it is the business of his life. We add
another instance. Capt Parsons was killed
at Waterloo, N. Y. by the bursting of a can
non at the reception of Lafayette at that
place. On hearing of the death of captain
Parsons, and being informed of the particu
lar circumstances of the case, he remitted
to the Avidow the sum of seven hundred dol
lars.
It is mentioned in a New-Hampshire pa
per, that it is the intention of Lafayette
while in Vermont, to visit his associate in
arms. General Barton, who for sixteen
years, has suffered imprisonment for debt,
to open his prison doors, and yield him to
liberty and his family !

There was a very animated demand fur
called tip—when
Mr. D, Pollock rose and said, that he
had a communication to make to the Court,
Avhich was material to the insolvent on
whose part he appeared. It ivnuld be recol
lected by the Court that on the Inst exam
ination, Mr. Knight, the solicitor stated,
that the letters and other papers referred
to in the Insolvent’s schedule were in the
possession of Mr. F. Pollock, upon which
tiie Court ordered that they should be re
ferred to that gentleman to inspect, and to
make hi- report thereon. He (the learned
Counsel) Imd since seen &. spoken to that
genl Ionian who declares that he has no such
papers in his possession ; there Avasa trunk
left with him, but what it contained he was
totally ignorant of ns it was locked, nnd the
key in the possession of Mr. Knight. He
also declared that lie would not inspect the
letters, as in that case he would have to
give his evidence in that Court, and, there
fore,he would not voluntarily make himself a
witness,Avhich he would he doing were he to
inspect them. He had no objection to per
use the papers and give his opinion uu them
but decline becoming a witness on oath.
Mr. Cooke, on tiie part of the creditors,
said, that lie could not consent to any opin
ion being given upon the papers lit nil; they
ought to lie produced, and if Mr. Knight
valued his reputation he would no longer

Extract of a letter from Buenos Ayes,
May 10—“ About a fortnight since, 3t) or
40 individuals, natives of the Banda Orien
tal, hesded by a person ni tuod Lavalltgo,
left Buenos Ayres with money and arms,
for the purpose of raising a rebellion a-
gainst tho Portuguese. The affray was at
first viewed as a sort of predatory expedi
tion. It has, however, assumed a serious
aspect. The people ofthe country have
taken a decided part. A force sent by Ge

under tho command of Rivero, a native of
Montevideo, have, with their commundcr,

arrive from Rio Janeiro, Lecor has but lit

for the patriots at Buenos Ayres, and very
sanguine hopes are entertained of their ul

Insolvent Debtors' Court May 4.
The Court was very much crowded, in
conscquenco of his Royal IlighneBS the
Duke of York being suphatnaeil to give cvi.
dence, in the case of William Pope, an in
solvent, who came up on his petition to be
discharged. Soon after the Commissioners
took their seats, Mr. Hurrieon, ofthe Trca
sury, who had also been subpoenaed by the
inso'vent, arrived, and was ushered into
private room.
Pope, tiie insolvent, in his examination,
stated as followsIn January, 18X4] I was
in this Court before ; I then had in the pos
session of a frinnd a trunk of papers, wlitch
had been givon me by a Mr. Ogilvie, as
special security for a debt of £2,630 odd
In January last, when I was here, the Court
ordered these papors to be given to the Offi.
cer of the Court, for hie inspection. I was
then residing within the rules ofthe King’s
Bench. In s few days after, I obtained the
spectec
of which, lie gives them to soother person,
who does not chno«e tu give them up, lie
must, therefore, take the consequences.
Mr. Pollock said, that the Court was
Avell aware of the purport ol tiie letters,
and the parties who were named in them,
and—
One ofthe Commissioners said, that the
Court could know nothing at all about,
them—it had not seen them ; all it wanted
to know was, if the letters involved any
property of the insolvent’s that ought to go
to his creditors.
Mr. Cooko said, that the insolvent had
stated, that if only a manuscript book that
was amongst, the letters was published, lie
would be enabled to pay all his debts bv the
sale ofit. Besides, there Avas a promissory
note and hill of exchange from Mr. Ogilvie
to the insolvent, in the trunk, for a very
considerable amount, and it was most, scan
dalous the documents should bu detained
from him.
Mr. Commissioner Harris said, that until
the letters and documents were produced,
the insolvent must he remanded.
Mr. Cooko said, that the Court then had
pronounced a remand lor life, as it tvas
quite dear Mr. Knight Avould never give
them up. Sueh a cold blooded act he nev
er before had heard of, and it was highly
discreditable to Mr. Knight.
The Court then said, that they Bhould
make their formor order, tlmt the letters
be given up to Mr. Dance, the officer of
the Court, for his inspection, and that until
that was dono, it could not rIIoav the prison
er to make another application for its bene
fit.
Mr. Cooke hoped tho Court would ap
point aasigneea to take possession of the
letters.
Commissioner Harris —The Court will
do no such thing. It has given its decision
and, therefore, it has nothing more to do
with it.
The insolvent was then taken away by
nent for Cofi'ee at higher rutea.
