We have just received, by. an extraordinary channel, news from Lisbon of the 4th of December, and we can confidently affirm, that the state of the Kink of Portu. gal's health ii not at all alarming. His Majesty had nearly recovered from the disorder in his leg, and was 'expected at Lisbon, from Mafra, on the 6th inst. The Lealdatle man of war sailed on the 2Sd for Rio de Janeiro, having on board Senhor Mathias de Pereira, Charge d'Affaires of I'ortug4l at the Court of Brasil. He carries the ratification of the Treaty conclude.' on the 29;h of August, between his Most Faithful Majesty and the Emperor of Brazil. FROM THE CONSTITOTIONERL. FRANKFORT. DIICE3IIM 13. EXTRACT OF A PRIVATI LETTER. Accot ding to letters from St. Prersburgh, the open. ing of the conferences relative to the affairs of Greece, notwithstanding the arrival of Lord Strangford, has been deferred till the return of the Emperor, who was expected the first fortnight in December. Nevertheless, preparatory and confidential conversations frequently take p lace between Count liesselrode and the new Bri tish though the latter has not yet been presented at Court, and has not paid the usua visits to the other Members of the Diplomatic Body, except to the Ministers of France and Austria, with whom he has had several private interviews. The inclination of the Emperor Alex 4nder to maintain the peace of the would being sufficiently known, it is thought that in case of a difference of opinion, this Monarch will rather yield to the views of England than oppose them, at the risk of seeing that peace disturbed. The Russian nation continues to testify the greatest interest in the fate of its unfortunate fellow Christians. A war undertaken with contrary views would be disapproved by public opinion. FROM THE DUTCH PAPERS. ST. PETER3BURGIA, Newman& 30. Eugenius, Archbishop of Pskow, has been translated, at his own request, to the Archbishoprick of Tobolsk, and is succeeded at Pskow by Methodiout, Archbishop of Astrachan. Though Russian produce is very low in price, oa account of its abundance, the exportation from Riga, especially of flax and linseed. has this year exceeded in value that of last year by above four millions of rubles, and the importation chiefly in sugars :hews an increase of 1,300,000 rubles ; above one thousand ships have entered the port, and above one hundred were still there on the 15th. STOCKHOLM, Daman& it. The report that a new Tariff may be expected at the beginning of next year, begins to be more generally credited. It is said that the merchants of this city and Gottenburg have petitioned his Majesty to make some cbanges.--The English frigate the Berwick, Captain Armstrong, which stranded near Colmar, and was car ried into dock there, has been destroyed by fire, which broke out in the cabin. The exchange of couriers between this city and St. Petersburg!' is very frequent. HAGUE, Mermen 14.

Wedneday, the 24th ult. his Excellency Major-Gen. Turner, C.B. embarked on board the Surrey transport, for the purpose of visiting the Plantain Islands, and Sherbro River. His Excellency the Governor-in-Chief was accompanied by the Hon. George Rendall, Acting Chief Justice, the Hen. Kenneth Macauley, M.C. the Hon. Wm. Ross, M.C. and'Brigade-Major Robertson.-- On Monday his Excellency and suite returned in good health, notwithstanding the numerous delays and incon. veniences they had met with. His Excellency Major-General Turner had a long conference with the King of the Sherbro, during which it appeared that his Majesty was wholly unable to pro tect his territories, or to repress the outrages which had been committed upon the :Objects of this Colony. His Excellency the Governor-General gave King Sherbro clearly to understand, that he could not interfere unless lie poscesed some guarantee for the security of the co- 1 lonial trade in those livers; that the slave trade shall be given up by him and his people ; and, in short, that the only means left of saving himself and his country from entire destruction, were to place the sovereignty of the latter in the hands of the British Government. His Excellency de,ired him to acquaint his head men, and if they agreed to this mea‘use, to tend their answer by Mr. Campbell, who would wait two days in the brigantine for that purpose. Thursday morning, Mr. Campbell an ived, bringing with him the signstures of King Sherbro, King So mano, the Cauinlets, and other head mien, to a decla ration that they agreed to the propositi , ,n made by his Excellency, and were ready to ratify the treaty at any moment. The incorporation of such a valuable track of country with this colony we consider one of the most impor tant measures of advantage which has ever been un dertaken; for, while it must prove the means of in creasing our commerce to a vast extent, it will at one blow destroy that hateful traffic in human victims which we have so long regretted. and the horrors of which we have taken so much pains to expose. The sanguinary war which has ravaged a large proportion of those countries known under.the general appellation of Sherbro, is now proved to have been originally caused by that dreadful scourge of Afri,a. Serrastasa 17.—Monday last, his Excellency the Governor•in-Chief received in State, at Government House, the Ambassadors from Alimarny Abdul Kadur, the King of Foutah Jallon, who brought with them some people belonging to a powerful Chief named Kokari, whose country, called Tamba, is situated to the North-eabt of Teembo, about eight Says' journey, and is near the head of the Ba Flog, or Senegal. They have brought down in this caravan nearly a ton of the finest ivory, a considerable quantity of gold, and a great number of bullocks and sheep. The following proclamation has been issued : CHARLES TURNER. Si Whereas, by a convention, altered foto at the Plantain Mods, on the 14th day of Sepessither last, and ratified at Yonios likerbro Iskodoia the Ist day_of this instant month of October, Hanka, Kim elf Shako, and Ye Omaha, Queen of Ya Combs, did, =wide dee advice sad consent of their several tributary Kings, and Head Men, cede, transfer, and make over to us. for and ea behalf of his Marity, the full, entire, free, and unlimited right. tide, possession, set sovereignty of all the territories and dominions of the Sherbro Mums, situate between the southern bank of the Caramaaca rivers, in latitude 7. fie.

SOUOKR v. PETERS AND OTHNIS. Mr. HIALD said this motio 1, to dissolve the injunc tion, was ordered to come on to-day. The case related to the late Mr. Courtois's property, amounting to about' 300.0001. The original cause was instituted fur a dis tribution of the property amongst the parties interested. Mr. Courtois left three illegitimate children, whose. right to legacies underwent a considerable discussion; ultimately the money (a hich had been brought into Court), was ordered to be transferred to the names of the children, upon their attaini ng t h e i r res p ect i ve ages . of twenty-one years; one of them had attained that age, and had got the transfer made; and the second also would have had her money, had it not been that the present bill was filed,.and an injunction obtained to prevent the transfer. The bill allerd that Mr. Cour tois was of an infirm state of mind when he made his will ; that he had been imposed on ; and that the ille gitimate children of Mrs. Peters were not Mr. Cour tois's • and upon those statements the injunction was granted. Now, however, a ffi davits bad been filed, :hewing that a more g ros sly wicked case of perfidy, perjury, and fraud, never came before the Court, than had been made by the injunction, bill, and the affi davits in support of it. Mr. Moan, for the phintif, admitted that they could not sup port the injunedon. The Loan Cassmarsoa accordingly directed that it be dissolved. IN THR SIATTNI 01 MARSH AND CO. BANKRUPTS. An application was made by Mr. Hut.n and Mr. Mottracu for leave to =swine the bankrupts upon the mat of this issue. The tioarctroa•Gameast. opposed the motion; he thought such permission might change the aspect of the ease entirely. Mr. HEALD said that was ale wanted. Tne Loan ClllA)lCRLLOllobser — v — d, that the bankrupts had been made defendants by this Court upon the trial of the issue for the purpose of getting at the justice of the case; and at . co :ninon law, they would have been admissible witnesses had they not been defendants, the technical objection of their being defendants ought not to be set up; and therefore the Court made an Order accordingly. LkDY ANSON V. THE BRITISH MINING COMPANY. The SOLIC.ITOR GIiNERAL moved for an injunction to restrain the British- Mining Company horn pro ceeding to work certain mines in Cornwall, and to pre vent them from proceeding • against Lady Anson,. to compel her to a forfeiture in the Stannary Court. Some time ago Lady . Anson bought a gre‘t many shares of a Mr. Thomas, in the Cornish mi..es, and also took se veral other shares as a security far 3,0004 which her Ladyship had lent him. The conditions on both were that she was not to be called upon for any expense in • working them. Mr. Thomas, alter this, parted with all his shares in the mines to the British Mining Company. They took no notice of the conditions under which Lady Anson had taken the shares, and called upon her for her quota of the expense. Mr. Solari ((showed on the sense side. The Lotto Cuancnaos occasionally threw out doubts as to the legality of the Company, and intimated that be was not quite sure whether be could entertain the bill. The suit was not positively defective for want of parties, yet there was only three out of a nu merous comp ay before the Court. His Lordship ordered t►e matter to proceed to-morrow. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, WEST hi INSTER, "DMA LOYD V. ASHBY, snawa, AND ROLAND. This was an action on a bill of exchange for 821. drawn by Hugh Roland, father clone of the defendants, and accepted by Ashby and Roland. • The question was, whether Shawe, who was a dor mant partner, having no interest in the business for which the bill was given, was liable? When Hugh Roland did the business which became the considera tion for the bill, the firm consisted of Ashby, Osborne, and Roland. Shawe was taken in as a dormant part ner, and O.,bnrne went out; but it did not appear that Shawe had any interest in the work far which the bill was given. Mr. Sena:: contended that Shawe was wholly released from theAdaindrs demand. Mr. MASINTAII% in support of the sedan, cited several eases, upon which be submitted that the holder of the biq of exchange had always recovered against persons whe were in partnership when the bill was slam The Low) Oust Jurrics—l must take this bill to be either an acceptance or consideration of a debt due from Ashby and Roland, before 81.twe became a partner, or I must take it to be an accommodation bill, for which Shawe had received no consideration. If I took it to be a bill of the latter description, and that it appeared that Shawe was known to be a partner, thee he would be liable to the plaintiff, who is a holder, for valuable consideration. But, as it does not appear that Shams was known to be a partner, I can't say that the bill was taken upon his credit. I rely upon the fact, that at the time this acceptance was taken by the plain tiff Shawe was not known to be a partner. Platatiff COUNT OF COMMON PLEAS, Thwessaaa 19. • LlNat.-91t1s3AR1 v. CLEMENT. Mr. Serjeint VAUGHAN stated the case to the Jury. The plaintiff had be. n accredited to this country from Chili, at the time it was battling for independence, and emerging from the galling y ke of Spain —that they wanted support in money—and that everything tending to throw discredit , n their views, or those of their agents, must be prejudicial to the cane of freedom; and that, ANTI-SLAVERY SOCIETY.
