By the Tuscarora; arrived at Liverpool from Piiiladel- phia, papers from the 8th to the 20thult. inclusive, have been received, but they contain no articles of the slightest interest. The lrestor,whieh sailed from New York on the 16th, bad not arrived at Liverpool; but that circumstance is of little monseint, as it is clear that any articles-of im- portance in the journals broniiht by that ship would have founde their way into tlic Vhiladelphia papers above-men- tioaed. The .feteo kpacket, which sailed from New York ois the 24th ult., arrived off Liverpool late on 'Tuesday evening last, but landed only a few letters and a file of the NTeu, York Pbhlic Advertiser to the 2Sd ult. inclusive. Both those, however, and the letters, are entirely destitute of intelligence of interest. WVAR IN PEau.-General Vallero woultd have sailed from Carthagena about the 1Sbth of September with 2,500 or 3,000 men ; 1,000 men had actually arrived at Chagres fromn Porto-Cavello, and more troops were to proceed to unite with Bolivar's force in Peru, if he had not edunter- manded the sending them; as, with the 14,000 and up- wards which he had near Truxillo, from wlhence he was preparing to march towardsLima, and the 3,000 who passed over to him frtm the enemy witlh General Olaneta, he would be enablei to exterminate the Spaniards, whose force did not conisist oF 11,000 men. General Vallero's rein- forcement of upwards of 4,000 men will therefore make the Liberator's army at least 21,000, so that we mav soon ex- pect to hear of the expulsion of the Spaniards from their last and only hold n Peru. Our informant left Colonel Campbell, one of thEfBritish Commissioners to Colombia, at C-'arthagena, where he was waiting for the Isis frigate from Chagres. His very favourable report, with that of Colonel Hamilton, who renr.ains at Bogota, will surely induce MIr. Canning to take steps towatds the recognitioni of the indle- pendence oft Colombia. COUNTESS OF CItINCHiON.-WC copie(d yesterday from a morning paper a paragraph respecting this lady, in which there is some incorrectness. She is the wife, we under. stand, not the widow, of thc famous Godoy, 'lho is now living at lRomne in a style of considlerable splendour, having amassed a very large fortune. 'rhe Countess never receiv- ed an invitation to Windsor Castle; oni the contrary, she wrote to His Majesty reqnesting permission to pay her re- spects to hin, but which he decline(d on the plea of indis- posi tion. [From a Correspondent.]-On WVednesday the Lord Mayor gave adinner at the Mlansioni-lhouse to a large party. Four young Greeks. the sons of some of the prinecipal (lirectors of the operations in Greece, were amongst the guests. Thley were introduced by Mr. Bowring, and were attiretl in the costuine of the country, richly embroidered. At the request of Mr. Bowring, who comnmnunicated the wish of the Lord iMlayor to the Greeks, they sona several of the national airs,without making the least fuss about the matter; and they ilanced, according to the style of' their county, vwith as little hesitation. ''he ladies, of whom there were many of the party,were delighted at the musical display, whiiel was completely scientific; but the dlancing was incomparable. The names of the young Greeks. who are four of the ten sevnt over to be educated here upz)n the invitation of MNvr. Jeremy Benthain, are Eustatio Ralles, from Napoli di Romania; Stamonacea, a Livadian, son of one of the chiefs of that province, at whose house Lord Byron was accustomed to visit ; Costa, son ofaSuliot chief; and Pericles, ail Athenian. Yesterday his Lordship gave a grand dinner to a large party of political friends at the MVlansion-house. A very extraordinary advance in the price of iron has taken pl ace within a short period, that article having risen fromn 81. to 131. the toI. A. worthy Alderman, whose chief property lies in ,ines of this metal, will, it is said, derive an addlitioll of the immeinse s,,m of 90,0001. to his annual income from this cause, provided the increased value is mnaintaine(l. The return of iron ore smeltedl at his wvorks is estimated at 5,000 tons weekly. An abstract of the proceedings for a repeal of the Com- bination Laws, with correct copies of that Act, and also of the Arbitration Act, haring lately bcen printed for the information of the workmen, we, in compliance with the wish of a respectable correspondent, recommlnendt every workmlan to purchase a copy of the pamphlet, to Wvhich he cay at all times easily refer, and thereby become acquaint ' ed with the law as it now is, and thius avoi(d that mischief whiclh, in v'ery mnany places, lhas alreadly, tllroirglm i-no- ratice, taken place. On Tuesdav M,lr. Wyatteville attended the Council heldl in the Council Chamber at Windsor (astle, where he laid before His M11ajesty and the members present the whole of the plans of the alterations and improvements which are to take place in the inteirior anl exterior of tie Castle. The Guictn4 Chron0icle of August 23 says-" The 7segas Logie of Plantation Success, East Coast was totally consumed by tire on Saturday night last, together witd the wLole of its contents. We have not heard whether the fire was occasioned by accident, or the act of an incendiary." LA FAYFTTE.-DuringtheAmnerican revolutionary war, a Geeneral officer in the service of the United States advanced with a score of men under the English batteries to reconnoitre their position. Ilis aide-de-camp, struck by a ball, fell at his side. The officers, and orderly dragoons fled precipitately; the (Gneral, though unrier the fire of the cannon approached the wounded rnan to see whether he had any signs nf life remaining, or whether any help coul(d he affor(eted hini. Finding the wound had been nortal. he turned his eyes away with emotion, and slowly rejoined the group) whicl ha(l got out ofthe reach of the pieces. This instance of courage and hu- manity took place at the battle of Slonmouth. General Cliton, who commandhed the English troops knew that the Alrqutis de la Fayette generally rode a white horse it was upon za white horse thtat tbe General officer who retired so slowvly was mounted Clinton de- sired thie gunners not to fire. This nobleforbeartnceeprobably saved Md.de la Fayette's life, for it was he himself. At that time lie was but 22 years of age.-Hist. Recollections (f tile Reig ofLoueisX VI. On Saturday last, six meii, three wortLcu, and three chil- dren, embarked in a fishing boat, at Eashigton, six i2Iles from lSpurt, about seven o'cloe int th'e-mnorning, intending to conIe to Uull, it then being mnoderate weather. About two o'clock, it canlSe on to blow very hatd, and the master began to fear they had lost thieir course, which was the faq, ftr, the wind having changed, and there being ,no compasa to steer by, and the weather being bo thick they coul not see tie land, they were then in the open sea. Aibout four o'clock, they fell mi withi the brig Aftay/lower, Captain Kemp, from Sunderland to Lynn, loaded with coals, which immediately lay to for them.On theboat coming up,a rope wats thrown from the brig, by which four men succeeded in gettide- on board, viz.- _irilliam lFox, Foster Bura, John Ranson, and-*1Viliam Wilkinson. After this, the boatman unfortunately let go the rope; The econsequence of which was, that his boat-got eut of sight, and' was not again Seen by the eople on board the brlg. There avere then in the boat, James Wil- inson, the maister, hia bretther, John Wilkinson, Jane Wilkin. son, an old woman named Johnson, and three ciiltbren, who, it is miuch to be feared, have all perished. Captain Kemp treated those lie had saved with the greatest possible kindness and humaniity, antd landed them safe at Lynn, about ten-o'cloctrnon S'unday. morniag. They have since returned to Hull, and given us tisii statement, cx. pressing their gratitude to Captain Kemp- in the most feering manner. -ft2d per.. . e y . e h On Saturday last, a melanclioy accident lhappeied at Chapel-hilli near M argate :-Asa agentlemnan's carriage -was travel- ling upon the roadnear the above pace, with a lady and tier family ot young females,-and a yonub about eleven years of age, the latter sitting on time box; -the coachinan had occasion to get down -to adjust some part of the harness-; tde horses being very spirited, became unmanageable, and running-the. carrrlage uporn an elevated foot-patti, overturned it1,and tallinp upon -the unfortunate votuth. killed him On the spot. rhe other branches of the family received some severe eontistonls, but itiS lipped not--ofa serious nature. -ir.
