Colonel Dania eulogizes the bravery of the troops, and mentions the gallantly of thirty of the 3d battalion of Don Pedro IV.'s Volunteers of V. 114 Nova de G4ya, wilt, took pact in this action. OPEICIAL GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY. OPORTO, Jinni 13. . Yesterday arrived in this city Colonel Gama, who commanded the military operations in the north against the rebels, who were directing their march by Penafiel. The cowards were routed, and fled in disorder, the day before yesterday, on almost the first fire of out troops, leaving some dead on the field ; while we had no killed, nor any wounded of consequence.— Colonel Gama confirms the praises he had pre viously bestowed on the troops, and makes particular mention of the valour displa y ed by thirty of the rid battalion of Don Pedro 1V :s Volunteers of Villa Nova de Gaya, who were engaged on this occasion. They were commanded by Colonel Abrfu, well known for his resolution and gallantry. Yesterday evening the following notice was pub:ibhed by authority: "The public tranquillity,which has so fortunately pre. wailed in this city, Shall be maintained; on this the' peaceably disposed inhabitants may rely. Some prisoners however, men degraded by their immorality and their crimes, have attempted to disturb this tranquillity ; but their prompt and immediate punishment will make atonement for their atrocities. It it should be proved chat they have acted by ve instigation of other pet sons, whose treasonable senti neat, are well known, they will ,peedily become an example to all traitors, by f,l:e legal punishment whickawaits ~ E irl GROSVENOR bavin.z a PAition to present on the soFjeet of Slavery, would take this opportunity of putting the questions of which he had given notice to the Noble Duke opposite. lie mit,t first t.ke the berfy of explaining to their Lordships the reasons which induced him to come forward upon this most impor tant subject. He was not actuated by any feeling if hostility towards that class of persons, or any indivi (Wait belonging to it, who had rendered themselves obnoxious to the laws in the British Colonies. He was hostile not to the men, but to the system, which, being one of absolute power on the one hand, and of abject and unqualified submission on the other, was necessa-. rily productive of abuse. After the numerous petitions which had been presented to their Lordships on the subject, it might appear as if they were regardless of the public voice, as if no notice were taken of the oh= lect. These were his inducements to call the attention of the House towards it State the year 1807, when the sense of this country had been_ loudly expressed, little had been done to ameliorate the condition of the slaves. Up to the period when a distinguished Minis ter, now no more, had proposed certain Resolutions to the House of Commons, , which were unanimously agreed to in that House, and unanimously re-echoed by their Lordships, nothing bad been done; and subse quently to th it period, a:though he could not say that nothing had been done,what had been effected was so little, that he telt shame and regret to say how little. the Noble Earl then proceeded to read at great length extracts from the Petition of the Ar ti- Slavery Society. After a long inaction, the Noble Earl proceeded, the island of Jamaica had passed a law, but a kw so ina dequate to the expectations of the country, that his Majesty's Government were compelled to reject it.— The next island to which he would allude was that of Demerara, a colony which had no Legislature, and, being under the power of the Crown-, was a convenient field for the trial of an experiment. Here the Govern,: merit might have tried the effect of manumission. If they did not find some method of enabling the slaves to work nut their own salvatior, what but some violert convulsion could ever put an end to die system? The planters, as a body, were averse to the manumission of slaves in any way. They must be acted upon by the Le gislature of this country, it any thing effectually were to be done. He contended there had been instances in which free labourers performed the woe k done by slaves. If the West Indies were sunk to the bottom of the sea, did their Lordships entertain the least doubt that they would still have an adequate supply of sugar? Those who said that the Africans would not work enough if restored to fieedom, wet e persons who wanted them to work harder than human beings ought to be compelled to work. The planters had paid no respect to the re commendations of the Government and Legislature of Great Britain ; they had, on the contrary, treated them with contempt, and in their public meetings, and de clarations, and petitions, had lavished terms of con tumely and abuse upon the Noble Eat I opposite, for merly Colonial Secretary, and. upon all the other au thorities of this country. It would be impossible, and if possible, it would be unsafe to improve the minds and characters of these unfortunate beings while their bodies were kept irs slavery. The attempt to do so could have no other effect than to make them mad.— He had telt an apprehension that his Majesty's present Government did not reel all the zeal up ,n the subject which its importance deserved. The threat of with drawing the protecting duties on sugar not from the West Indies, would probably have had a beneficial ef fect. He despaired, he cot f: sled, a:though he hoped he was wrong, of any beneficial steps being taken, un less by the coercion of the West India interests. He begged to inquire of tie Noble Duke what was the state of affairs at Sierra Leone, and what the irtentions Of Government were with respect to that settlement? and he also requested to know, what was the policy his Majesty's present Government had determined to adopt with respect to the several subjects to which he had adverted ? The Duke of WELLINGTON would not detain their Lordships by following the Noble Earl through all the ,parts of his speech in dttail, but would confine himself to answering the questions he had put, or rather in repelling the insinuations he - had thrown out, that his Majesty's Government were not disposed to carry intd effect the Resolutions of the two Houses of Parliament. He could answer for the two Administrations of which he bad formed a part, and he believed he could also answer for that which camebetween them, and to which he did not belong—that his Majesty's Servants were determined to realise the objects of those Resolutions upon the subject of slavery, but that they were deter mined to realise them gradually, cautiously, and with a due regard to the rights of property—ina Word, that they were determined to realise them h the sense in which they had been adopted by the Legislature—in a sense which held all rash and violent measures to be inex pedient,and which held the rights of property to he sac' eJ. But he hoped before he sat down to show to the satis faction of the House, that something had already been done in fact, and that mush had been dune towards the , - recognition of the principle' which were comrehineed iii the resolutions of Parliament: The Noble Lordihad said much of the irritation which prevailed in the West Indies. It was natural that some degree of irritation should be felt there, from the prejudices which pre vailed ; hut notwithstanding this irritation, it was the duty of Government 'to pursue steadily the system which it had determined upon as the twist expedient end most just. Then, he , aid, that since the resolutions of the two, H irises . ' f Parliament on all the islands, something harkieeen done in furtherance and in relognitinn of . 0 e principles laid down by Parlianten , . In the Island of Jam oca a Boil had been passed, to whicn it was true his. Majesty had not thought proper to give his Royal Assent. Bui the assent was refused, not hec:ot se the Bill did not concur with the Parliamentary Resolutions in the poisits which these Resolutions embraced—the ' a iset,t was relimeil because in respect to other points 'the Bill was thoukht to contain provisions which were in expedi.oit ; foe: with respect to ' the measures recom mended in til4P4ll4omitary_ll,-snlotions; - the Bill CO t,efned moth 'Sels!eh iris highly approved of,' and he rherefore thiltght be migl e •t claim for the Island 'of Jamaica the merit of having adopted, in most or ifie important points. the principles reiushimended by 'the British Government. With respect to the Other islaitdi also, making fair allowances for the natal pr : ejushe a of the Colonists, prejudices which much of *hat took place in this country was calcOlated to cOnkm he avght venture so say that much had been done. The Nuible Lord had a'ked a question with 'tespeet to the . de‘ermmation of Government to enforce the order' they ,had is,ued in some of the Isla! Ids . Upon thl snhject of compulsory manumiasion. 'Now .the Island of Demerara bad petitioned party ularly ag a inst that part of the order. Ther Petition was tiernri the Pt ivy Council, arid was riot yet deteimined tipoft:: It was undoubtedly the intention of his Majesty% Gone+ went to carry this resolution into effect; and it soffin delay had ( ccurre, it must be recollected.tbat rfce office 'of Co'onial Secretary hid been filled by no less than four different Gentlemen in the course of the yeast; and that there had not heed time to determine upoithe exact mode in which it was to be accomplished. • 11,0 frankly avowed, that although the principle of the .mea sure would be fully adhered to, the Government said not yet come to any determination at to the rtsode. At which that pririciple could be most safely and effectia. any pursued. With respect to theSlaveTtade,and this fintAtt . .4l one of the great difficulties of the subject; they hall tea= ties with every power in Eurepe. He begged their Lorst ships to attend to the difficulties arising from thistionisk; they had treaties, and they did all in their power to cilitaiS the observance of those treaties ; and yet, notwithstand 7 ing all they could do, he was greatly afraid that .thers was at this moment as much slave trading as at aq forther period—as much as existed ....kefore•the tholiti The greatest efforts bad been made to throw impe ds. - ments in the way of this traffic, and the Sett ernent ot Sierra Leone, to which the Nob le Lord had adverted, was established for this purpose. To this Settlement great numbers of captured negroes had been conveyed. Since the foundation of the Settlement, the r umber of captured negroes did Oct fall short of 12;000; and the expense of this country fur head-money alone was not less than 16,0001. a year. With reipect to the people of half colour, in Jamaica they had . passed a law ell& Wing them to hold certain offices,' and in ninny it thi Colonies they were admissible to all offiees:in.disCsizi nately with whites. He believed he had now adverted to the principal points upon which the NeibleLOrd'vritii desirous of information . and he'iloitld not trespass fiat; ther upon their Lordships' eime: . ''. ' 1 - L . .. • - Lord CALIHORPE expreiied his ilfsapPolofrOitit and surprise at the slow progress which hadbeen Ur*. and his dissatisfaction at the language of. the N Duke, intimating his approbition of the conduct of - 4,. At West Indian authuritiei. The hdpes eZpressedhy - ' . Noble Duke would turn out to be a Outing illitsififijo • be again defeated. It was I fni as if thi . Colottia. 1..;&,,.,. gislature had said, ” Wait, give uitione."" ' This wotyl be satisfactory to hits. But this 'wait not 'their 110 guage. They said, 4 4 What you propose is not OnlYlns% expedient, but grossly unjust. They are measures which would involve us in complete ruin. They were :ripe adopted by the deliberate wisdom of the British Par- liament, but . dictated to it by a club of ignorant an t i intemperate fanatics. It is impossible that those who proposed them could know any thing whatever of the , West Indies." This was their language, and it appeared to him to be such as forbade any such hope as the Noble Duke bad expressed. The Noble Lord then pr.* ceeded to comment upon the Act of the Jamaica Le gislature, and the letter of the Secretary of State for the Colonies, reiterating and entarcing the arguments cf the latter. 'fhe mode in which the Colonists treated the Resolutions of the tuo Houses of the British Parliament, was in itself a striking proof of the debasing influence of slavery upon the masters themselvei. It was their in terest, as well as that of the Negroes, that the Resolu tions had in view, and that would be promoted by their due execution. To equalise the duties upon sugar would, be a severe punishment ; to withdraw the Br•ttsh troops from the islands would be the sevetese punishment to' the planters that could be imagined, and knowing these things, the contumacy of these pasties was utterly ult. accountable. The hopes expressed by the Noble Duke were without foundation, but it they had not been so.' his expression of those hopes would hare been enough to secure their defeat. He called for a distinct pledge from his Majesty's Government that something effec tual would be accomplished, either with the concur rence of the West India Planters, or without it. The Duke of WELLINGTON begged to say a sibee word. He thought it impossible that he could have been misunderstood. What he said was, that the principles involved in the Resolutions of the two Houses of Parliament had been acted on, not only in thaChar tered Colonies, but in others. It was upon thithat he expressed satisfaction. He said when the opposition was so violent, and when, notwithstanding this opposition, the principle of the measures recommended by Parlis. merit had been adopted, this did afford ground for hope, that when greater time had been allowed for consideration they would at length be fully carried into effect. The recommendations (.f . Parliament had been fully carried into effect in Demerara, and in part in the other Islands. If these should be found not to succeed, Government would recommend cther measures. keep ing off with the gre:itebi care and anxiety from that which vie .Noble Lord recommended in the first in stance—force or coercion.
