Some curious facts relating to the late plot against the lifre of the Elector of Cassel are disclosedl in letters from- CasseL of the 31st ult. received yesterday. In consequence of what: had. previously trauspiredE oi thle subject, a M. de Horn published a pamphlet entitled The Plot against the Elector Will am I. of Hesse Cassel, in which, by an ingenious and laborious argument, he laid certain rules by which the conspirators might be discovered, and particularly pointed out in the preface that the principal contriver of the plot must hold a situation near the King's person. This pub. lication was observed to give evident uneasiness to AM. Louis de -Mangrer, Chief Director of Police. Hle first en- deavoured to buy up all the copies of the pamphlet; but not succeeding in this, he caused paragraphs to be inserted. in different journals impugning its credit, prolhibited its circulation in Hesse Cassel, and even made a journey to Hanover, where the author resided, for the purpose of pro- secuting him in the courts there. His conduct, however, excited the suspicion of the Elector, to whom it was re- lated, wvho caused M. de Manger to be arrested and all his, papers seized. No process had. taken place, and therefore, though M1. de Manger laboured under strong suspicion of having originated the plot} ne proofs of his guilt had beest publicly allow ed. to transpire. A letter from Altona of the 4th inst. saVs-" The late loan of 5,soo,0001. sterling, contracted for the DaRish Government by MIessrs. HIambro and Son, of Copenhagen, has nmade a great sensation here and at Hamburgh. The proceeding is viewed. with muclh dislike by the holders of those Government securities which pay 5 and 6 per cent. interest, and which will now be paid off by the above sum, negotiated. at the rate of 4 per cent." I By the Dee, Captain Jamieson, arrived at Liverpool, let. ters from Demerara to the 24th of April have been receiv- ed. Sir B. d'Urban, the new Governor, arrived there on that day from Antigua. Sir J. Mlurray, the ex-Governor, was to sail in a few days for England. Some unpleasant feeling had been manifested among the negroes on the east coast of Demerara, and one man had beeni lodged in gaol. 'The Easter holydays had, howvever, passed over quietly, contrary to the apprehensions entertained, in consequence of the refractory spirit of the negroes above-mentioned. We copied recently from an evening t?aper, a contradic- tion of the fact that the British Commissioners in Colombia had carried Dresents of snuff-boxes from the King to the President aind Vice-President. We find, boweTer, that there is no autlhority for the contradiction, and that the fact (as we stated it) rests on the most positive informration from Colombia. The contractors for the Mexican loan- have postponed the concluding payment on the scrip till the 14th of July.
