The weather is somewhat against such an o peration. In the event of it s taking place, Santarem would be garrisoned by the guerillas and armed peasants under the command of Villa Real, Cesar Vasconcellos, and others of the liberal chiefs who are now concentrated there. Colonel Wylde left Lisbon this mornin , . for Cartaxo, where it seems his presence is expectete afford soe show of encorement to Saldanha, e though uponm what grounds I u am ag at a loss to divine. In the meantime, and whilst inactivity and discou ragement characterise the state of affairs attire Queen's general's head-quarters, the people in the south are neither idly nor uselessly employed. Schwalbach, who took his departure hence last week (Thursday) at the head of about 300 raw and hastily-collected levies, reached St. libes at eleven o'clock on Saturday night. The pl ice was evacuated, the guerillas having retreated as soon as their scouts brought in telligence of the general's approach. The Scourge had already been despatched thither by Admiral Parker, in order to protect British property in case it should be threatened, which was not the ease. On her arrival off the fort, the war steamer had the new flog of Sir William Parker flying (white, with St. George's cross), which the commandant mistook for the Portuguese ensign (half white and half blue), and fired three guns at her. The union-jack, however, speedily cured the mistake, and an apology was at once offered for the occurrence, which was atoned for by a salute of 21 guns to the flag. Having executed her mission, and seen the place in possession of the Queen's troops, the Scourge returned on Sunday to the Tagus. 'There exists on the part of the populace of Lisbon a very uneasy and excitable feeling, which br,uks out now and then in hasty ebullitions, but which is as soon quelled by the bayonets of the police force. On two successive evenings after the arrival of the boat from Villa Franca (which is the town leading to Cartaxo, where passengers proceeding thither em bark), crowds of people have awaited in Black Horse-square, making noisy demonstrations, and even throwing stones at the guard. Several rockets were thrown up on Thursday night after dark, and some arrests took place. But it is necessary to state that, notwithstanding these symptoms, the city is perfectly tranquil. A party of officers recently went up to the head of the great estuary which forms the mouth of the Tagus, in order to shoot : they were cautioned by the peasants not to go beyond certain boundaries, and to carry with them a boat's flag for their personal pro tection. From the observations that were made of the disposition of the peasantry, it would appear that they were all of them engaged in the interest of the Liberal party. The Royal Tar arrived here late on Saturday night, bringing the Oporto mail-bag, which the stormy weather had prevented her from landing. By this vessel there came to Lisbon the Count de Mensdorff (cousin to HAUL Prince Albert), who is now on a visit to their Majesties at Mupida des. H. LISBON, DEC. 17, 9P r. I The Scourge returned this afternoon from Oporto, bringing despatches from that place, which she left at nine o'clock last night. There had been some firing in the suburbs of thtk city, but nothing of any importance had taken place. The detach ments from Saldanha's force, under Lapa and Freire, had returned to Cartaxo, where the whole of the marshal's army was concentrated. Various ru mours have prevailed in Lisbon during the last two or three days respecting the movements of the troops on both sides, but they have all proved to be false. I)as Antas still remains at Santarem, and Bomfin and Monzinho, having succeeded in the object which they had in view, are now on the march to the north. Colonel Wylde returned from Saldanha's head quarters late last night. The Lisbon municipal cavalry, which were attached to Lapa's force, re turned on the lath to Lisbon, in very bad condition, their horses completely knocked up by the short campaign which they had undergone. The Virago war steamer came into the Tagus after dusk, on her way from Gibraltar to England. The discount on the Bank of Portugal, alias the Bank of Lisbon, notes still continues to be fearful. As an instance of it, I may mention that, having a payment to make, a gen tleman here tendered it in paper, which he obtained at the rate of 20 per cent. in favour of the gold with which he made it, the lucky recipient immediately ob taining 22 per cent. for his metal from a Cambista in the Rua da Ouro. ll.* sew under the plea' aPtroeseM, .genCrsit inseedity ptopeity, filthy priyette habits among the lower class, with great cost as d splendour of the I nobles, periodical plagues from neglect of cleanliness and unwholesome diet, a country overrun with vagrants and banditti, a learned class turning from thq barbarous Latin of the schoolmen to the nobler masters of Greece and Rome, and a system of commer cial legislation which hampered industry in every transaction, and impeded invention in every effort.

The last body of iers that armed for CHARLES under Lord ..EY is defeated this very year. The King, almost the very anniversary of the foundation of college, is arguing with Mr. HENDERSON, at New , on the divine origin of episcopacy ; and instead he grateful acceptance of the royal messenger, the quaint pageantry of an hundred years before, 'rinity hears her courts ringing to the steel scabbards I gingling spurs of the Ironsides; for her guest time is not a royal chamberlain, but Sir THOMAs IRPAX, general of the parliamentary forces. Lords journals of March, that year, inform Sir THOMAs came to Cambridge a n ; ad how i tyn "he +rim hi g hly caressed, and Latin oration to him by a fellow of Trinity College, who had a soldier in his regiment. In the chapel they presented him with a rich Bible; in the hall with a - -tptuous banquet. Then the town entertained him a stately banquet, and at the schools he was a master of arts." The hundred years, tpsed, had seen the University siding with terent forms of faith, as each obtained the • hand; vibrating with marvellous adhesion one principle of agreeing with the powers that from Protestant to Romanist with MARY, and back Romanist to Protestant with ELIZABETH. The turch has fallen before the Puritanism, whose germs into being with Protestantism in this country. toleration has gained no triumph in the overthrow the bishops. Civil liberty, much as it owes the revolution of 16-18, has a further struggle to .enter, and another king to remove, before it can dish itself in England. Meanwhile commerce increased, great trading companies have been formed, though the manufacturing industries of the country lie still undeveloped. Philosophy has uttered first words of its emancipation through the mouth ICON, and his name is stamped on the era which is sing over Cambridge, with the scarce less noble ones 'CRANMER and Rioter, of COKE, SELDEN, MILTON, CROMWELL himself. But the Popery of MARY, Protestantism of Euzseent,the Presbyterianism ac civil wars, and the Independency of the Pro tectorate, alike kept up at the University the system -eligioua tests, and wielded with the same spirit ..e sharp sword of theological persecution. As yet England had won neither liberty of conscience, freedom , f speech, nor security of life and person. Great thoughts, all questions of civil life and philosophy, had been atered, but the time of the harvest was not yet me. It was a century of great men but not of meral culture, of marvellous efforts of intellect and ill by the few, but small appreciation by the com mits of either. The next centenary brings us from scaffold of CHARLESI. at Whitehall to the scaffold of e rebel lords on Tower-hill. The century which rose blood sets bloodily : 1746 saw the victory of Culloden, 7hich defeated the pretensions of the last STUART, as skirmish at Stow-on-the-Wold extinguished the glimmer of hope in the second of that ill-fated e a hundred years before. The civil achievements of the interim had been 'eat ones. Constitutional liberty received its strongest guarantees in the Habeas Corpus Act and the Act of Settlement. The last relics of formal feudalism were swept away under CHARLES 11. But the Bench could still be disgraced by a JEFFREYS, and the pleadings of the courts were once more carried on in foreign tongue, despite the change introduced by tritwera.. Commerce was gradually extending. r criminal code was becoming more and more de formed by bloody severity, and death by hanging - the penalty of some 269 different descriptions of .aces. The first post-office .was established ithin this epoch. Roads were bad, and canals unknown. Travelling was slow and danger- Philosophy had been carried to its proud height under NEWTON ; literature had be ante popular, compared with what it was tinder OIIARLES I. The controversies of that time made the reading public of England. But religious toleration was still unknown. Popery was the object of penal -ss of almost incredible barbarity, tending to sever nearest and dearest tics of natural affection. Another century, and Trinity celebrates her third wntenary in 1816. What subjects fur thought, what sources of congratulation, what themes proud comment does the interval supply ? all of human doing that affects the social and poll teal lot of Englishmen, more is comprehended in this period than in any corresponding one of the world's history for any other nation. We see the seeds, whose planting we have watched, burst into a glorious productiveness. We see the thoughts of great men, barren to their own times, significant and vital to ours. We have retained nll that was permanent in the past to carry it into this century. Commerce has been developed to a degree almost surpassing \chief ; our manufacturing industry has been roused do an almost feverish life by the discoveries of WATT, IRKWRIGIIT, and CaomrroN ; the atrocities of our criminal law have been softened ; liberty of con science has been proclaimed in emancipation acts ; re yeeentation of the people secured, if not completely, at least largely,by the 'Reform Bill; commerce unloosed from the grave-clothes of restriction ; and now we stand on the threshold of changes more momentous even than these, as they affect the roots of the national character, and work to shape the child into the man. The first century of Trinity College might be called' (as Mr. :tl.tc.tt - Lav called it) the century of BACON; the second, the century of NEWTON ; the third has no name of man whereby to designate it, but it might claim prouder titles. Shall we call it the century of , political freedom, or of religious tolerance, or of the abolition of slavery, or of the steam-engine, or the power-loom, or the railway, or the Reform Bill, or free trade ? May we hope to designate its successor ' by the title, prouder than all these, of the age of eaacation ? coral:ion-place as any merchant's clerk. And he is all the better of it. The British officer of the re gular army fights as well as any; but he fights only for his company , and onl y when it is necessary. Ile is a member of a great body of international police ; his business is to keep the peace, not to break it. He is a brave, well-conducted citizen, not a dissolute desperado. The irregular soldier (of whom a few specimens may still occasionally be metwith) has suffered by this change. The irregular soldier who will fight in any cause for which his sword may be hired, has lost all chance of taking rank in society with the regular national soldier. The only circumstance that reconciles us to fighting as a profession—the reflec tion that in the present state of the world our national safety can only be preserved by an army, and that its soldiers strike only for the cause of home—is want ing in the case of irregular mercenaries. Enthusiasm for a cause may carry a man thoughtlessly into the battles of one foreign country, but as soon as he makes it a trade, and transfers his services at the close of one ca mpaign to the service of another flag, he becomes " contraband of war." It is a semi-conscious sense of this that has led to charging the police courts and the Old Bailey with the surveillance of these amateur warriors. This effaces the last glimmer of romance that might still cling to their trade. Now that the laws against foreign enlist ment are enforced by the same agency as the laws against pocket-picking, we are in a fair way to get rid of foreign legions. None who are worth recruit ing will be ambitious of earning money by aiding to unsettle foreign dynasties, with risk of being obliged to hold up their hand at the same bar with burglars. The finale of the English contingent to the Ecuador Expedition has given the death-blow to the last avatar of the buccaneering spirit. To see a high-minded gen tleman, after being baited in a police court by his own Scrjeant Kites, turned Queen's evidence, only escape from the bumbailiffs by the friendly interposition of a rival jailer, and a precipitate scramble over walls and through blind alleys, to deliver himself up at no distant date to the tender mercies of a police-court, has nothing alluring in it to the youthful imagina tion. It is more akin to the buffetted and disap pointed career of Pantaloon, than the glittering race of Harlequin. Men laugh at, not with, the dashing captain. lie is not even the Clown, but merely the ill-treated dandy of the Christmas drollery. We could regret this for the sake of that gentleman, and others of honourable sentiments, who still cling to the profession, did we not feel that as a sense of the ridi cule attaching to their position cannot fail to disgust them more speedily with their trade, better service could not be done them. nor the nobles doubt it. More than twes.fy said to me, " If we had been aware that out fate w ou l d i be bettered, Ire should not have left a uncle nob aloe we will make up for lost time in the neat y ee * tion." And they will do it. Another imprudent be the nobles, and Poland will beco me a ye " 11 The incorporation of Cracow has made a 41 impression. It was there that the Pole saw the fir st f i t of his pretended liberty extinguished ; but the ee nsten tion is fully equalled by the indignation of the nobles", cially of the women, and the hatred of Austri a has a": terrible. At Lemberg Russian grammars ahoued i n 1 libraries, and the nobles are becoming Re,siged.

I)ENAT ARK.—The King of Denmark has dissol the Diet of Schleswig. In the sitting of Dec. 14, the 11.4 Commissioner read the following letter from his Maim, " From the minutes of the proceedings of the diet of Sel, wig. I have seen with regret that the said axsemby, i e p of being occupied with the bills earnestly re quired by country, and with those proposed by the diet itself, hat cussed certain propositions contrary to the act of Ms, 1831, and which tend to change completely the cons tion of the duchy of Schleswig, and to bring about separation from Denmark. Although the diet has ley times been informed that it is incompetent in this re st it has not paid any attension to the informition.

RESPECTING the fisheries off the Irish coast, two things are known with certainty—that the fishing banks are excellent, and that they have never yet been properly . fished. Attempts have been made by private individuals to stimulate the peasantry to fish with more of enterprise and perseverance, and by government to promote the fisheries, under the auspices of a board. Something has been effected by the instrumentality of both agencies, but not enough. Fully to develop any branch of industry, there is respired capital, under the direction of that skill and perseverance which the spur of interest alone can impart and maintain. Salaried officials lack this spur ; the private individuals who have endeavoured to promote fishing in their respee- tire neighbourhoods, have wanted sufficient capital, and have, for the most part, come into the field merely as benevolent amateurs. It is with pleasure, therefore, that we hear that the formation of a joint stock company is contemplated for the pro secution of the Irish fisheries. It' set about with proper caution and energy, it cannot fail to remune rate those who take part in it. With the aid of British capital, it will, by giving employment to Irish fishermen, and setting an example of the man ner in which fishing on a large scale should be set about, it may become a normal fishing school. l'ro perly conducted, it will train hardy and expert fisher men, and, by its success, arouse the emulation of other companies and individuals possessed of capital ; villages may thus be created all along the west and north-west coasts of Ireland, which, as markets for agricultural produce, will add to the value both of land and labour. Of the originators of this company, and its actual position and prospects, we know nothing, but the shareholders can take the manage_ ment into their hands at any time, should they prove incapable. For striking out this method of benefiting Ireland, they are entitled to a fair trial and best wishes for their success : it is for capitalists, more or less connected with that country, to aid them on their way.

Sir Frederick Currie WI in 1799, educated at the Charter-house and Haileybtu lege ; arrived in Calcutta 1818, and, after 20 Tears c service, latterly as District Commissioner at COrackys Gazepore, joined the Earl of Auckland at Simla, 11 Government Secretary for the North-Westyrn Pre and accompanied his lordship to Lahore.

In consequence of the festival of Christmas, the Bourse was closed, and business gene rally suspended. We have received journals and correspondence from Madrid to the 17th. Rumours of a ministerial change were still current. El Tionpa was of the opinion that the crisis would continue until the election of the President of the Chamber of Deputies had taken place. The triumph of Bravo Murillo, in that respect, would be followed by that of MM. Mon, Pidal, and Armero. A private letter says:—" The ministerial crisis is still the great topic of conversation, and various are the rumours in circulation. The following version is the most accredited. After a cabinet council held on the 16th, all the ministers respectfully tendered their resignations. The Queen refused to accept of them. Her Majesty expressed the desire that the ministry should continue at the head of affairs until the meet ing of the Cortes. The president vainly persisted in twice offering to resign ; her Majesty replied that it was her express desire he should continue in office." According to the Espanol, out of 302 elections known, 182 were favourable to the government, 37 to the Conservative opposition, 32 to the Progreabistas, and only 5 to the monarchical party.
