From the Liverpool Mercury. : hi in. By 1 cc en t lett era we learn that a mo t arbitrary art has been committed by the Spa, 1ish government. The kingdom of Navarre is a portion of the Spanish monarchy whi o had its ancient rights -a permanent body of deputies lias existed, to whom the guardianship of these rights and privileges was confined. This body had a right to declare whether any measure emanating from the kn was contrary to the c institution 1 ! the A'i order v a lately iie cu. r. ai 1 le ( pui exercise of tl eir privil to sanctie 1 it. 1 01 of this refu tl, tlie icen late) arresl sdthe whole ovince. t fr .

capt. Arthol, arrived yesterday from Liverpool, in 34 days passage, the Editors of the Gazette have received Liverpool papers to the 28th, and London to the 25th Oct. both inclusive. The former contain London dates of the 26th and Paris to the 22d October. They contain nothing of material importance a few extracts will be found below. The Homer sailed the day after the Union arrived last week, and consequently cannot bring much later statements of the market. American staples maintained the same prices as per last date-. We observe nothing in the Liverpool or London papers relative to the expected scarcity in that country. The apprehension of sir !; an event appears to have subsided. From English papers by the I totfter. London, Oct. 24. Commercial lett as from France are said to mention that the Ministers of Louis XVIII. had resolved to make a fresh attempt to negociate for the Sovereignty of St Domingo, in consequence of which new Commissioners have sailed in a private manner from a small port in the neighborhood of Brest, in an unarmed Vessel. They 0 direct to Potion's dominions, and it is understood that their tone will not he so high as that of their predecessors. Letters from Pomerania, dated 25th nit, state that the crops Lad been all secured ; that the wheat was a good crop, and in higher condition than last year ; that rye was a very rich crop ; barley tolerable; and peas rather scanty. London Oct. 25. Wc arc happy to state thai ti ere arc no accounts to day of new disturbances of any sort Tl v is not one word of truth in the statement of a morning paper yesterday, of riots having

broken out in Staffordshire, and at Svva 1 sea and Bret on. All is1 quiet in that country and in Glamorganshire ; and a letter from a magistrate near Newport, dated the 22d, takes no notice of any thing unpleasanl having happened in Monmouthshire.
