This forenoon we received Lisbon Gazettes to the 9th inst. One of them contains a sort of reverie on the blessings the world is to reap from the Holy Alliance It is to " unite the diverse regions of the globe in indis ' soluble bonds," and by its agency, mutual interest is to bind the people of the two hemispheres in fraternallove. We do not know whether it is a prelude to Portugal coming to an arrangement with her late Colonies, by which their inde, endence shall be recognized, but it looks like it. The following are extracts :. LISBON, JANUARY S. The Gazette contains the following Decree • " Considering the inconveniences that result from allowing individuals belonging to the army to moue substitutes to perform their military service in their stead, without any other restriction than that the sub stitutes shall be persons not legally liable to be taken as recruits, and those who•offer them being thencefor ward, by the very act, free and exempt ; it being also certain that many of those who are offered are vaga- bond) who make a fraudulent traffic in this species of speculation, to the great loss of my Royal Exchequer and the manifest injury of the service, and I being de- sirous of uniting, as far as possible, equity with justice, ordain as follows: 44 Accoraing to the regulations annexed, persons presenting substitutes are to remain responsible for them, in case of desertion. during the first year; and is order to insure this responsibility they must, at thi same time that they petition for this favour. send a bail•bond, duly drawn up by a notary, and signed by an unexcep tionable person residing in the place to which the corps belongs. No application shall be received unless accompanied by such a bond. In case the sustitute should desert within the ) ear, notice shall be sent to the surety, to produce within a month, either the person for whom be is bound, or another substitute. In spite of the efforts of the revolutionary spirit to endeavour to repair the defeats which it has sustained in Europe, and especially in the Peninsula, in 11123, the whole of 1824 has passed, without its being able to obtain the victory : on the contrary, irs hope was to• :ally frustrated, when the death of Louis XVIII. caused the sceptre of France to pass into the hands of his legi timate successor, without the slightest disorder or alter. ation in the policy of Europe. The happy issue of this crisis, sufficiently proves that the people and Govern ments of this part of the globe have advanced, with firm and gigantic steps, to the desired goal of general tranquillity, which was never so solidly established as since the world has beheld that magnificent alliance of all thellovereigns, to govern their people conformably to the sacred precept!, of the Gospel...an alliance truly holy in its objects, and a bulwark which cabal, rebel lion, and proud ambition, will find as insuperable bar rier to their abominable designs. , 4 With the continuance of the vigilance and predates Odle Cabinets, taesht by bang and coastal* expo. Awe, the new year will augment the fruits-of peace ; dame eaten the people a double atteehtnest. to their Mgitimuses Gomm's' ; write the divene eesifs of The French Papers of Sunday and Monday have. reached us. The Journal des Debits of the former day, has a long and - well-written article on the recogni tion of the independence of Sr:klub America. After tracing the progress of the separation from Spain from its commencement, the writer truly asserts that " the independence of South America is not founded upon molutionary spirit, but on the contrary, it was pro voked by a legitim i ate resistance to usurpation, and afterwards continued by the refusal of the -ancient authority to give any guarantee to the people, whom an event had placed under new institutions." Such is clearly the situation of the South American States; and if the war in which they have engaged has been sometimes carried on with a ferocity disgraceful 'to humanity, it ii to be recollected that it was the Spaniards who first set the example. The Journal des Debate next notices the policy which England has adopted, in relation to Spain and - her Colooies,. Eng land," says the writer * 41 representied ,to the Cabinet of Madrid thepecessity and utility of treating with nations not actually in a, state of rebellion. Spain refnied this wise counsel. England then - declared herself neutral ; she denied to both the belligerent parties the power of recruiting or making hostile preparations upon British soil. This was an injurious denial to the Americans; she renewed.her offers of mediation; they are oncemm e re fused. She announces that she will wait some months, to give Spain time to arrange her affairs. She has waited a year ; her dutiei to Europe are fulfilled ;' but England has also duties to perform towards the Americans, which, with the consent of the Royalist Regency of Spain, she supported in 1810 against the efforts of the partisans of Justus. She has also duties towards her own subjects, to whom, at the period above mentioned,she gave encouragement to furnish arms and ammunitiodto all the subjects risen against the Usurper. The consequence of these connexions has been the em• ploy ment of great English capital in A tnericaus commerce —England has fulfilled this double duty in regulating, by commercial treaties, her existing relations with America, and she cannot conclude a treaty with a State without acknowledging the fact of its independent ex istence. The interest of England, as a free, industrious, and commercial nation, is comprised in these words— liberty, civil, religious, and commercial, throughout the entire world." These is a spirit of liberality as well as justice in these remarks, which is not always met with in the French Journals, when England is the subject of their oblerva tions. Thus far we agree with the writer in the Journal des Debate; not so when he comes to 'speak of France; for without questioning the policy of France attempting to erect every South American State into a Monarchy, with a Bourbon Prince at its head, we may (ably ques ties its practicability at any period, and, if accomplished, feel convinced that the thrones would not have been permanent. The jealousy of the United States of North America, of a Monarchy near them, would have been fatal to such an attempt; and we have only to look'at the uneasiness manifested in those States at the ephemera: empire of Irunarns in Mexico, and the existing one in Brazil, to be convinced that the monarchical principle will always rank the Government and people of the United States as its enemies is► the New World. The Journal des Debras again blames France for not fulfilling Net duties, and assuring her interests in the New World, which is attributed to her ignorance of our colonial system, and a disbelief that we should provoke a revolt of our own' polonies by recognizing the inde pendence of others. The writer then proceeds to shew the difference between the British Colonies and the South American States. "India is au empire held by military occupation, where there are 100,000 English and foreigners is the service of the Company. Canada is a free country, governed by its Parliament. Jamaica has its two Chambers; everywhere, except perhaps at the Cape, English policy has calculated upon the insti tutions and eves the illusions which gratify the moral wants of the inhabitants of these distant possessions: How, then, can these colonies be compared with the Spanish Americas? The latter are real nations, which cannot be governed as colonies; their emancipation, therefore, will not have the least influence upon the inhabitants of the English Colonies." The other French Papers contain Nub news of any interest. The official part of the Mouton , of Sunday, January 16, contains the promulgation of the law re specting the Civil List, its adopted by the two Chain ben. Also two Royal Ordonnsusces; the first relative to the contract made by K Si NTORA for finishing the canals, called that tithe Disks of Aegouleme, and that of the Ardennes; the snood, relative to a lead mine caisesay at Cbasalwisafte.

CANTRRAO 9 3 loss is stated at 6,200 men, and BOLIVAR'S at 4,000, and that the latter was in full march towards Cusco. No dates are given, and it is supposed there is some exaggeration in the numbers lost on both bides. The AURORA frigate is said to have sailed from Val paraiso for England., The letter in which the action be tweets CANTEItAC and BOLIVAR is related, was written by a partner .in the house of Dtxox, MONTGOMERY, and Co. of Buenos Ayres, to their correspondent in Liverpool. It is added, in another letter, that when the news of the victory reached Lima, the Spanish troops which were- in that city immediately retired to the fortress of Callao, leaving the rabble committing all manner of depredations, until the Captain of his Majesty's ship CAMBRIDGE landed part a his crew, which had the desired effect of quelling the rioters, and protecting the lives and properties of the respect able citizens. It is said that our Government has received dispatches from Holland, announcing that the King of the Ns- THEaLANDS has determined upon the recognition of Mexico and the South American States, and upon opening a commerce with them for his subjects., Let ters are also said to have been received from our Am bassador at Paris, which indicate that even the French Government feels a similar inclination ; and that M. de VILLELE has addressed a note to (the Ministers of) FERDINAND, on the object of our recognition, of the trans-Atlantic States, conjuring his MAJESTY to take in good part a measure which could no longer be de layed; and not to irritate by any expression of a nuga tory dissatisfaction, or to waste any efforts in endeavour ing to engage any other European Powers to induce England to change her deter mination. We copy the above from the Times of this morning, but we learn that Government has not received any in timation of the sort, either from Fr once or Holland. Philadelphia Papers to the 23J ult. have reached us. The following estract from a letter written on board the frigate Protector, in the Bay of Callao, dated 17th July, contains an account of a gallant affair, in the de• )truction of several vessels : sg On the 9th Joly, Admiral Guise dispatched Capt. Robertson, accompanied by Lieutenant Sulman, of his vessel, with one hunched and twenty-five men, in nine boats, to take or destroy as many of the enemy's vessels as were in Callao; at his entrance he was opposed by more than 1000 soldiers and marines in the vessels, and 1500 artillerymen, who manned the batteries ofi the Castle, and kept up a tremendous fire on our men. Notwithstanding, they effected the object of their enter prise, by detroying and taking the following vessels: the President, 20 guns, brunt ; Juanna Gordon, flag-ship taken; Perla, formerly ofChile,taken ;a brigantine; name unknown, taken ; a large vessel, Dame unknown, burnt. The Protector, the Congress, and the Ma cedonia, were employed in diverting the attention of the batteries; but all the fire of the latter was directed towards the boats and men charged with the destruction of the vessels."

A very interesting was read by Captain 'CAME, on a new collimeu instrument for ascertaining correctly the line of Lion, or the true level of a telescope, and which promises to be of great utility in practical astronomy. The Fel lows heard with pleasure, that the accounts of a failure of a practical application of science, announced in some of the Papers, was without foundation ; and were in formed by their President, and by Fellows who had seen, or were acquainted with the state of the &NA KANO, shat the results were of the most satisfactory kind. M. Tuarraututs name was read as a foreign mem ber of the Society; and Mr. BELL and Mr. BCOUESIII admitted as Fellows. It is well known that, at the request of the Royal Society, Government had coasented to have an arc of the meridian measured in New South Wales. It is to be hoped, that no changes which may take place ip the government of that Colony, will interfere with this im portant aneasure, which is a very great scientific object, not merely from its relation to the charts and limits of territory in Australasia, but likewise from its connec tion with the figure of the earth. ♦s we are superior to every other nation in warlike and commercial pur suits, surely we ought not to be outdone by them is philosophical enterprise. - -A report was current yesterday, and bat obtained credit in the well-inforated circles in the City, that the Turks have accepted the mediation of Austria to settle their differences with the Greeks.
