DECRILE. a Taking into mx Royal consideration, that the clan destine and illicit importation of colonial produce and merchandise from Asia and other parts has lately been made in small vessels which were not formerly em loyed in this tra ffi c, and in vessels not c omin g directl y from the ports assigned by the laws, to the great injury of my Royal Treasury ; and it being my will that the said laws be strictly observed,. I hereby ordain— " 1. The preFent laws remain in their full vigour, which prohibit the importation of merchandise and co lonial produce from Asia, unless direct in vessels under. the Portuguese flag. 00 2. The importation of these goods is prohibited when the Portuguese ships which bring them are under 80 tons burthen. 00 3. The first Article relates only to goods for con sumption, as foreign vessels, above eighty tons burthen, laden with such goods, and coming either from Portu guese ports, or others, may be cleared, trans-shipped, bonded, and re-exported. "4. The second Article relative to these goods, whatever be their destination, and every Portuguese vessel of less than eighty tons, which shall enter the ports of these kingdoms, or be found within three leagues of the coast, with such goods, from whatever place they come, shall he confiscated, with its cargo ; and the same shall be the case with foreign vessels under eighty tons bnrthen, which shall be found within the said distance, unless it can be shewn by _authenticated docu ments that they were bound for foreign posts, and that they have been compelled by circumstances to approach the coasts of these.kingdoms. This Decree shall begin to take its full effect in the time of one month and a half from the date of its publication for Portuguese vessels, and of three months for foreign vessels. The Authori ties whom it concerns will see to the execution of this Decree. " Palace of Alfecti, January 5, 155111." (Si by his Majesty.) MONDAY, JANUARY 31, 1825.

JANUARY 110. The Governinent of Lucerne has received official notice, that his Holiness has ratified the convent ion for the raising of the Swiss Guard. * lt contains fifty-eight articles, one of them authorizes the Pope to dismiss the guard, on giving three months notice to the Govern ment of Lucerne,,and giving to the troops a month's pay, to defray the expense of their return home. Mr. Vaughan, the English Plenipotentiary in Swit zerland, who generally resides here, went, on the 14th, to Lucerne, where he communicated to the Govern ment of the presiding Canton, that his Court had re cognised the States of Mexico, Colombia, and Buenos Ayres. It is believed that the Government of Lucerne will make a communication on this subject to the twenty-two Cantons. After making this communication, Mr. Vaughan returned to Berne, whence he will set oat on his return to England. He will go by way of France. _.,.. ti We have received French Papers to the 29th instant. The only information which they contain relates to the affairs of Greece. Accounts from Hydra confirm the successive defeats and final flight of the Egyptian fleet to Alexandria; and even the attempts made by the Oriental. pectator, to soften the intelligence, serve to prove its correctness. Accounts from Constantinople, aher exaggerating the differences which had arisen in the Morea, assert that the whole Peninsula was divided into v..° parties: one, the English headed by MAVROCORDATO; the other, the Russian, under the direction of COLOCOTRONI, WAaWAJKY, and PIETRo BET. It is admitted, how ever, not only that the forces of the latter were very in ferior to the former, but that they had been defeated in a smart action, in consequence of which COLCCOT ROM had sent the following tender of submission to the Greek Government : " I believed the cause I defended to be the best; I thonght in fighting for it, to fight for my country and to obey the decries of HIAVIN—the unhappy death of my two sons, is a sufficient proof of my error. " I beg the Greek Government to see in me only a true patriot, misled by love of his country. I desire to return to the condition of an obedient and faithful Citizen, and I swear to unite my efforts and my means for the union and prosperity of my country, as my most ardent wishes have been for her alone." It was not known what answer the Greek Senate had returned to this submission of the rebel Chief. THE LATE DRS TILLOCH. • It h with feelings of deep regret that we have to _nnonnce the death of ALLYANDER TILLOCI11; LL.D. in the sixty-sixth year of his age. This melancholy event took place on Wednesday morning last, at his house, Birnsburrsueet, Islington. Dr. TILLOCH was a Proprietor and for many years one of the Conductors of the STAR Newspaper ; but for the last four years he has been confined by a severe sickness, which, during the whole of that periocC prevented him from taking any active share in editing that Journal. Dr. TILLOCH was a man of superior literary and sci entific attainments, and no person was mote amiable, or more esteemed in private life. FOREIGN EXCHANGES. Ilassuaan, JAN. London, 36..3. 2 Us. 38.

A delicate row of em bossed braiding ornaments each side of the bust; the pelisse is made without any collar, and is surmounted by a double frill of fine law, with a Vandyke edge. The sleeves are but moderately full, and are finished at the shoulders by inancherent, of a descrip tion entirely novel; being formed of flutings which stand out very perceptibly from the arm. A cornette of fine lace, with a few pomegranate blossoms, is worn under a bonnet of black velvet, or namented by a plume of drooping black feathers; a black Chan tilly lace veil is generally Worn with this bonnet s thrown over on one side: the bonnet is encircled round the crown, and tied under the chin on the right side, with s rich striped ribbon of pomegra nate-blossom colour and jonquil.

From, Somitiet, gov. 21, 1821. MT Loan—More than two years since, a lovely and beloved wife was taken from me, by lingering disease; after a very short union. She possessed unvarying gene tieness and fortitude, and a piety so retiring as rarely to disclose itself in words, but so influential, as :a pro. duce uniform benevolence of conduct. In the last hoof of life, after a fareweil look on a lately born and only . infant; for whom she had evinced inexpressible afftc tion, her last whispers were " GOD'S happiness I Gon's happiness !" - Since the second anniversary of her de cease, I have read some papers, which no one had seen during her life, and which contain her most secret thoughts. I am induced to communicate to your Lord& ship a passage from these papers, which, there is no doubt, refers to yourself ; as I have more than once heard the writer mention your agility on the rocks at Hastings: " Oh ! my Con, I take encouragement from the assurance of Thy word, to pray to Thee in behalf of one for whom I have lately been much interested. May the person to whom I allude (and who is now, we fear, as much distinguished for his neglect of Thee as for the traoscendant talents Thou bast bestowed on him) be awakened to a sense of his own danger, and led to seek that peace of mind in a proper sense of religion, which he has found this world's enjoyments unable to procure !—Do Thou grant that his future exampk may be productive of far more extensive benefit than his pat conduct and writings have beep of evil ; and may the Sun of Righteousness, which, we trust, will, at some future period, arise on him, be bright in proportion to the darkness of those clouds which guilt has raised, and soothing in proportion to the keenness of that agony which the punishment of his vices has inflicted on him ! May the hope that the sincerity of my own efforts for the attainment of holiness, and the approval of my own love to the GUMS AUTNOII of religion, will render this prayer, and every other for the welfare of mankind, more efficacious—cheer me in the path of duty ; but let me not forget, that, while we are permitted to animate ourselves to exertion by every innocent motive, these are but the lesser streams which may serve to increak the current, but which, deprived of the grand fountain of good (a deep conviction of inborn sin, and firm belief in the efficacy of enemy's death for the salvation of those who trust in him, and really seek to serve him), would soon dry up, and leave us bar ren of every virtue as before. " Hastings July 31,1814." There is nothing, my Lord, in this extract, which, in a literary sense, can at all interest you; but it may, perhaps, appear to you worthy of reflection, how deep and expansive a concern for the happiness of others a Christian faith can awaken in the midst of youth and prosperity.—Here is nothing poetical and splendid, as in the expostulatory homage of M. Delamartine ; but here is the sublime, my Lord ; for this intercession was offered, on your account, to the SUPREME SOURCE of happiness. It sprang from a faith more confirmed than that of the French poet, and from a charity, which, in combination with faith, spewed its power unimpaired amidst the languors and pains of approaching dissolu lion. 1 will hope that a prayer, which, lam sure, was deeply sincere, may not be always unavailing. It would add nothing, my Lotd, to the fame with which your genius has sun onnded you, for an unknown and obscure individual to express his admiration of it. I had rather be numbered with those who wish and pray. that 41 wisdom from above," and " peace," and j..y, may enter such a mint!. THE ANSVER. Pisa, Dxc. 8, 1821. have received your letter. I need not say, that the extract which it contains has affected me, be cause it would imply a want of all feeling to have read it with indifference. Though lam not quite' sure that it was intended by the writer for me, yet the date, the place where it was written, with sonic other circum stances which you mention, render the allusion proba ble. But, for whomsoever it was meant, I have read it with all the pleasure which can arise from so me- lancholy a topic. I say pleasure—because your brief and simple picture of the life and demeanour of the excellent person whom I trust that you a ill again meet, cannot be contemplated without the admitation due to her virtues, and her pure and unpretending piety. Her last moments were particularly striking; and I do not know that in the course of reading the story of man kind, and still lessin my observations upon the exist ing portion, I ever met with anything so unostenta tiously beautiful. Indisputably, the firm believers in the Gospel have a great advantage over all others, — for this simple reason, that if true, they will have their reward hereafter, and if there be no hereafter, they can be but with the infidel in his eternal sleep, having had the assistance of an exalted hope through life, without subsequent disappointment, since (at the worst of them) " out of nothing, nothing can arise," not even sorrow. But a man's creed does not depend upon himself ; who can say, I will believe —this,—that, —or the other ? and least of all that which, he least can comprehend. ,I have, however, observed, that those who have be gun life with extreme faith, have in the end greatly narrowed it, as Chillingworth, Clarke (who ended as an Arian), and some others ; while, on the other hand, nothing is more common than for the early sceptic to end in a firm belief, like Maupertius, and Henry Kirke White. But my business is to acknowledge your letter, and not to make a disser tation. lam obliged to you for your good wishes, and more obliged by the extract from the papers of the be loved object whose qualities you have so well described in a few words, I can assure you, that all the fame which ever cheated humanity into higher notions of its own importance, would never weigh in my mind against the pure and pious interest which a virtuous being may be pleased to take in my welfare. In this point deicer II would not exchange the prayer of the deceased in my behalf, for the united glory of Homer, Cesar, and I Napoleon, amid such be accumulated upon a living head. Do me the justice to suppose, that ride?

Surgical aid being immediately Pro cured, one of his legs was amputated about the middle of the thigh/ and the amputation of the other would have taken place had his strength admitted of it, but the operation was necessarily delayed, and at four o'clock in the afternoon death terminated his sufferings.
