• %aye, that a petition has been got up and printed at Ai:, in favour of the re-establishment of the Jesuits. The letter also states that an affray took place on the 30th ult. on the frontiers of Spain, near Puycerda, between the Government troops and some armed men, but the Governor succeeded in restoring tranquillity.

The fact is, that the Gazette is not permitted to give any news. The expedition against Terceira is not eyes mentioned ! The Gazette of the 31st notices the arrival of the Por tuguese yacht Senhora da Conceicao e Almas, from the island of St. Michael, in fourteen days, with the Mail : but there is no other arrival from the Azores mentioned. Our private intelligence from Portugal is to the same date. A vessel from Falmouth had arrived at Oporto in a five days' passage. She carried the news of Count DE VILLA FLon's victory. The Military Governor of Oporto drew all his artillery to the streets of the town, and patrols were stationed to prevent the people from assembling. The military Governor of the Minho province narrowly escaped being killed by the Royalist volunteers. All the cavalry at Oporto was ordered to march to Braga, in order to put down the insurrection of the royalists. Conde DE VILLA FLoit's victory was received at Lisbon with the most extraordinary demonstrations of joy. Ia order to con- ceal from foreigners the shocking barbarities indicted on the Constitutional prisoners, these depots of unrelenting tyranny are to be transferred to the frontiers of Spain.— Almeida is one of the places destined to receive the suffering patriots. Corporal punishments occur there every day. _ _ The news of the young QUEEN'S departure did not make such an unfavourable impression on the minds of the Portuguese, as its original contrivers had anticipated. The simultaneous intelligence of the total destruction of the tyrant's expedition against Terceira, more than neutralised any unpleasant effect which it might have been expected to produce. Great care, also, had been taken by the Portuguese residents here, to explain to their countrymen the true cause and motives for the recal of his daughter by DonPEDRO. St. Petersburg') Journal; of the 27th and 29th of August are also in town, containing the last report of Ge neral PASK.ZWITSCH, up to the 30th July ; but no fur her intelligence from the armies, either in Europe or Asia. Prince CHOSREW MIRIA, the Persian, had an audience of the E): ritEs s on the 25th of last month, at the Palace of Yelaguine. It will be recollected, that as soon as we learned the accession of the PottowAc party to the helm of affairs in France, we distinctly stated at the same time our confi dent expectations that this party could not remain, or— remaining—would be the cause of a RE voLuTtow . That revolution is now decidedly begun. A league has been formed in Brittany by the union of the five departments, to resist unconstitutional excesses, and save the Charter from ministerial violation. A sort of Manifesto, comprising four declarations, .has been already published by the confederating districts, of which—as it is by far the most extraordinary and explicit portion of the document —we give here the preamble. Que les arnis de l'arbitraire chez nous lisent—et sachent en proffer ! Ucalegon is too close to be pleasant. " We, the undersigned bilsabftasits of the five departments of the ancient province of Bristany, under the jurisdiction and protec tion of the Royal Court of Rennes, bound by our own oaths, and by those of the beads of cur families, to fidelity to the King, and attachment to the Charter, considering that a handful of politi cal madmen have conceived the audacious design of attacking the very basis of our constitutional rights conferred by the Charter; considering al,o, that if Brittany has found, In the enjoyment of these righu, the compensation of those that were secured to her by her union to France, ber national character and her honour equally induce her to imitate the generous conduct of her ancestors, by resisting the usurpation and arbitrary caprices of kii tmterlal authority; and considering, finally, that any armed re. the most dreadful calamity,—that it would be motive, as long as legal resistance can be had recourse to ; and that the most certain means of rendering prefer able recourse to judicial authority, is to ensure to the victims a mutual and fraternal link with their fellow-citizens—We de. dare, connected as we are by the ties of honour and legal right, ice. ice. ice. This banding together of five departments," to resist the usurpation and arbitrary caprices of Ministerial autho rity," is but the herald of universal movement and combi nation in France, to eject from its bosom the brood of pestilent vipers which had crawled back under the leaves of the Charter, and is now stinging it afresh for the fostering warmth it yielded. For ourselves, we have long considered the BOURBON dynasty as effete, and have perceived from afar the germ of events which are now hastening to their developement. We hope that CHARLES X. and his already sufficiently scourged family,will not provoke too far the yet suspended retribution, by braving to the last the rising resentments of the people. There is no salvation for him but in im mediate flight, or immediate bowl fide capitulation, and surrender to free forms. It is even questionable whether—if the KING were capable of so great a proof of magnanimity and wisdom—matters have not proceeded beyond the retrieving point. We rejoice heartily at this intrepid demonstration in Brit tany, and we feel no doubt that the sacred fire will spread. It will read a lesson to absolute power, not one moment before it was wanted ; for if its accursed prova lences had been suffered to consolidate under DE Po- Ac—strengthened as he was by METTERNICH at Vienna, and as he would have been by DE LAVAL MONTMORENCY in London—Europe must have returned unresisting under the yoke of her ancient bondages. One positive and immediate advantage to the cause of Constitutional Govern ments, which we anticipate from the saving atti tude of France, is the abandonment of all profligate recognitions on the part of the Noble Earl ; who will pause—at least we should think so—to see whether the ace which is about to turn up, shall be a trump for popular principles, or feudal power. The mention which has been made by some servile prints in this country of Lord STRANGrokres name, in connection with the usurper Mto 'Jul.'s, is a scandal to the Government which has not con tradicted it; and the omission to contradict it on the part of the Noble Earl, shows that his own wishes were plainly in unison with the rumour. We console ourselves in the meantime, with the reflec tion that passing events in France are working a salva tion for Portugal, and that the downfall of absolute forms upon the Continent will operate as a weaner to the Bri tish Cabinet, from its unnatural fraternisations with pe ninsular monkery and oppression. The following—worth notice—is dated from Madrid, Sept. 3. We see nothing in it inconsistent with the pre sent policy of the Noble Duke and his colleagues:—" The Expedition sent off against Havanna has astonished the English Cabinet to such a degree, that Lord WELLING TON has addressed a letter to our Sovereign, in which he says, that, as a Spanish General, devoted to his Majesty, and so highly interested in his glory, he begs of him not to hazard any ultra-marine expedition,without apprising the English Government of it; who will readily co-operate at a more opportune moment to subject the Spanish Colonies to legitimate authority ! The expe dition that sailed for Havanna on the 6th July, appears to the Duke not only inadequate to the execution of the intended purpose, but even calculated to prevent the success of a more nu merous one, combined and supported by Great Britain ; and besides the disrepute it may bring on the Spanish arms, the persons devoted to the Mother Country might thus be compromised ; by such a mode of acting, the Spanish Government would deprive itself of that support so necessary to effect the grand design. This letter from Lord WELLINGTON, who has lately appeared to play the part of FERDINAND'S protector, has been given by his MAJESTY into the hands of the Minister of War. It appears that the new Queen of SPAIN will arrive at the end of October or beginning of November." From Bucharest, of date the 26th August, we have the following paragraph this day : " We understand that on the 10th, a fierce engagement took place under the walls of Schumla, in consequence of which, General KRASSOWSKY made himself master of the out-works of that place. The Russian General would have pursued his victory farther, had not the GRAND VIZIER notified to him that he had received instructions to negociate, and that, to this end, he had written to General DIE BITSCH, to ascertain the place where the Plenipoten tiaries should meet. After this communication, an armistice seems to have been agreed upon. It is said that the GRAND VIZIER will conduct the negociations on the part of Turkey, and HABIL EFFENDI will accompany him to the place of conference. Some per sons even say that the Plenipotentiaries are to meet at a farm near Adrianople." By a letter from Constantinople, which we find in the Hamburgh Correspondent—dated on the 1 ith August— it appears that the SULTAN has at length been persuaded to consent to send Commissioners to the Russian General. That, however, which it is of much more importance to get determined for the SULTAN—namely, whether Gen. DIEBITSCII will be persuaded to consent to receive the said Commissioners—does not at all transpire. The following is the letter alluded to : LETTER FROM CONSTANTINOPLE, Amon 17. (Br &razes). After several conferences of General Baron Muffling with the Reis Effendi, and in consequence of the urgent representations of the Ambassadors of England and France, the Sultan has been at length persuaded to consent to send Commissioners to the Russian head-quarters. The Grand Vizier has already received orders to open negotiations for the restoration of peace between Russia and Turkey. Among the Commissiosem are, as we hear a Pasha who took part in the negotiations at Alterman ; and Nedsehld Effendi, Inspector of the Powder Magazines, and Agent of the Viceroy of Egypt.Meiling, who is accompanied by Major Berea Voo Koster, and his Aide-de-Camp, Baron St. Clair, left Constar dnopie immediately after the departure of the Commis. dopers for their destination.--i/aeskergh Correspesdast, Sept. S. Dutch Papers to the 12th (Saturday last) are received this day ; but they bring us no news of importance. The following are brief extracts : THE HAGUE, Serr.lo. A general census of the population of the kingdom having been ordered by a resolution of 49th September, 18411, directions hays now been issued to commence the operations on the 16th Novem ber. and to close them by the 3151 December this year. It is said that his Excellency the Minister of the Marine and Coh.nies has received a Royal resolution, by which he is permitted, on his urgent solicitation, to retire on the Ist October next, —re tailing the title of Minister of State, and with his Majesty's thanks for his long and faithful services to his country. If on Ist October no resolution shall have been taken respecting the organisation of the department of the Marine and Colonies, business is to be done as usual in the absence of the Minister. The duties of Senhor Go rostiza, the Mexican Charge d'Affairs and Consul General, will be performed by Senhor Maximo Garr, till the arrival of Senhor Mecado, the new Charge d'Affaires of Mexico. The Algenteine Zeitung to the 9th instant has been received this day, and gives us a very interesting account of the industry of the Egyptia►► Magnates. It is con tained in the extract of a letter dated Alexandria, July 11, and is to the following effect : Ibrahim Puha has been here again for some days put. It is astonishing with what zeal and activity he directs the. affairs of the Government. Achemet AU has confided to him every thing re lative to the army and the navy, and the internal administration. The conduct of persons in office is examined ; and, where the smallest fraud or negligence is discovered, be punishes the guilty with rigour. The arsenal and the marine are especially objects of the attention of the two Pachas ; they intend to extend both ; the Puha has said, that in four years be will have five large ships of the line built here. M. Ceriey, a French ship-builder from Tooloo,wbo, with the consent of his Government, has entered the Puha's service, has the superintendence of the arsenal; and General LeteMer of the navy. The intention of sending troops through Syria to Ar menia is wholly given up. The garrison of the city is about 5,000 regular infantry. Four days ago all the Turkish soldiers were called upon, either to enrol themselves in the regular troops, or to leave the country. Our city assumes more and more the appearance of a fortress : batteries are erected on every side, and several hundred men are constantly employed oa them : t►e harbour of Aboukir, too, is being fortified. A Paella lately arrived here, sent by the Porte, to take the command of the men of war belonging to the Sultan which are lying here, and to proceed with them to Constantinople. They are therefore repairing, but very slowly ; and it is not likely they will soon leave our harbour. Trade is at a stand, partly on account of the season, and partly on account of decreased con. sump ion of the articles imported, in consequence of the poverty of the inhabitants. • The Hamlntrgh Reporter of the Bth instant, under date Borsen Halle, four o'clock, has the following passage : —" The confirmation of the entrance of the Russian army into Adrianople, and the belief generally entertained of the approaching return of peace, have slightly raised the funds—which, however, are not greatly advanced."

The kt ten delivered this morning from the Dutch steamer bring the fends higher, particularly the bletalliques. A report prevailed at Amsterdam and Hamburgb that the Russians had entered Con stantinople. As yet the foreign market is void of the least interest; prices are nominal, as per yesterday. CITY, HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK. Consols have continued the whole of the morning at 119 to 891 for the Account, and 88j for Money, with little or no hominess doing. This l► settling day in the Foreign Market, and we have not ►eard of any defaulters as yet. Reports are revived this day again in the City, that the Russians have entered Constantinople. Nothing is more likely; but the intelligence wants confirmation. The private letters from Lisbon, by the mail this morn ing, state that a Falmouth Paper had been received there, with the account of the defeat of their expedition at Terceira, which was seized by the police, and the in formation not suffered to transpire. We have a report that the Niexican General SAt► TAN A has been shot, accused of being connected with the Havannah expedition. We understand that the Undaunted frigate has arrived from St. Michael's, and that she brings accounts of the Portuguese expedition which were defeated at Terceira haring returned to the above island, and landed the re maining troops. We are informed that the Dey of Algiers, not being content with being at war with the French, has provoked hostilities against Russia. The Vice-Consul of Franee at Tangiers writes to the Chamber of Marseilles, underdate of the 11th August, that an Algerine corsair had cap tared in the waters of Lisbon, after an obstinate engage ment, a Russian transport, with sick. Extract of a letter from Aux Cayes, received at Havre, of the Bth July: " We are daily expecting, with the greatest anxiety, the Treaty of Commerce concluded some time past with France : its non-arrival gives us sus. picion that some obstacle has prevented its ratification, and should that be the case, our situation with Hayti will be critical, as there is already a hatred against the French by the population of this country, who are blind and cruel. The other day, a young Frenchman, being suspected of keeping a billiard table, was obliged to pay 1,000 gourds ; and another, for having slightly infringed on the law, was condemned to pay ,000 gourds." Ex-Officio informations are filed by the Attorney- General, against the Dublin Evening Past, Morning Register, and Freeman's Journal, for comments on the conduct of the Crown prosecutions at the Borrisokane homicides, and publishing the letter of the Rev. Mr. Spain. A Paris correspondent writes on Saturday evening, " the discontent against the Ministry increases daily ; even its old friends withdraw from it, and predict its fall." In consequence of its having been discovered that some persons of doubtful reputation had found their way with too much facility into the New Police, a re-investigation into character has teen place, and some, *rho have pot corns out pure and unquestionable from this second Peretin7, have beep interned that their services will be dispensed with, The Earl of Pauszoez, who is shortly expected in England, Ms not been absent twelve years. Whilst his Lordship was on his travels, in 1814, at Palermo, he became acquainted with the Princess OCTAvIASPINELLI, daughter of the Duke of LORINE, and widow of the Sicilian Prince DE RUBARI, whom he married. Hi s Lordship was then in his twenty-third year. Thi s marriage was, from various causes, so contrary to the wishes of his father, the late Earl, that he imme diately departed for Sicily, and returned with his son, leaving the Princess at Palermo, who soon afterwards came over to England, accompanied by her brother, the Duke of S piN EL LI. Various proceedings were sub sequently instituted by each party in Doctors' Commons, in which the marriage was confirmed. The late Earl guaranteed a settlement on his daughter-in-law, which, at his death, was, we believe, increased to 2,0001. per annum. The present Earl's mother was a daughter of TOPH AM BEA UCLERK, a distinguished patron of litera ture, and the friend and associate of Dr. JouNsow and Sir JOSHUA REYNOLDS. His only sister, Lady DIANA, married the Earl of Noma ANTON, a liberal patron and collector of the works of modern artists. The Margrave WILLIAM of BADEN, who has for some time been on a visit in this metropolis, took leave on Monday last of his MAJESTY at Windsor. On Saturday morning his Highness embarked on board the steam packet for Ostend. His MAJESTY was graciously pleased to confer on him at his departure, the distinction of a Military Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Hanoverian Guelphic Order. His Highness, it may not be generally known, commanded the troops supplied to NAPOLEON by the Grand Duchy of Baden in the famous Russian expe dition. The King of BAVARIA has always been considered one of the most learned and ingenious Sovereigns in Europe. Whilst he was Crown Prince, and soon after the marriage of Prince BEAUII ARNA is to his sister, the CROWN PRINCE and BEA UNARNAIS had a serious quar rel, relating to a matter of mere etiquette, which was re ferred to the reigning Monarch, who decided against his own son, and in favour of BEAUHARNAIS ; in conse quence of which the Prince left the Court of Munich, and for several years resided at a palace fifty miles distant from the metropolis. In this state of seclusion he wrote a volume of Poems, which have been published in Ba varia, and are there highly appreciated. They have been translated into English, and will, we understand, shortly be published. Charlestown papers to the 12th August, and Sydney papers to the 26th March, have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. The former papers contain the same narrative as published yesterday, in regard to the ship Bingham, one of the transports be- • longing to the Havannah expedition, having been dis persed, in a severe gale, from the fleet. Lord LEVESON Gow ER is now on a visit with the Earl of KINGSTON at Mitchelstown Castle. The Colosseum excites increased admiration, as it ap proaches to completion. It is certainly a stupendous undertaking, and must, front its magnificence, always create a high degree of interest. Its attraction continues to increase, and the numbers by which it is visited give ample promise of its proving a profitable speculation, as well as a delightful recreation. 'The following mode of pig-stealing is practised by the gipsies and other wandering vagabonds in France. They take a red-herring, and holding it under the nose of the pig, it follows them wherever they are inclined to take it! —Morning Herald. His Excellency General STEWART, Governor of St. Lucia, ever mindful of the welfare of all his former friends and tenantry, in writing a private letter to a friend lately, desired to be remembered kindly to five different widows on his estate, whom he distinguished by name: the united ages of these five individuals amounted to 415 years ! The Marquis of DOWWSHIRE has subscribed the mu nificent sum of £3OO towards building a Church at Ban bridge. The same liberal Peer has presented the Pres byterian Congregation of that place £l2O towards com pleting their new house of worship. THOMAS BEST, Fey. who was engaged in the duel with Lord CAMELFORD, in 1804, behind Holland-house, which terminated in the death of his Lordship, died a few days ago at the Blanquetts, near Worcester, in his 49th year. Mr. BEST, in early life, married Lady EMILY STRATFORD, who quitted him with a Mr. HENRY, to whom she was subsequently united. Mr. BEST, whose fortune consisted chiefly of West India property, when very young became deeply involved, and was for some time an inhabitant of the rules of the King's Bench Pri son. He has left a son, who is a Captain in the army. Sir DAVID SCOTT, Bart. lady, and family, have left Silwood-house for Dover, to proceed by the route of Calais, for the French capital. It is understood that they purpose staying at the latter place during the protracted period of six months. The Duke of NORFOLK'S beautiful yacht the Swallow has been dismantled, and docked at Littlehampton for the winter season. His Grace was so well pleased with the good conduct of his seamen, that he ordered an ex cellent dinner to be provided for them at the Norfolk Hotel, Littlehampton, before they separated. We have received Halifax papers to the 22d ult. The weather in North America forms a great contrast with what we have experienced in Europe ; the drought and heat had been so excessive, that the woods had taken fire in several districts, and extensive damage had been done to the settlers. We have received a series of West India Papers to the 10th ult. At Dominica the public attention has been engrossed by the trial against the Honourable H. J. GL AN V ILLE, Speaker of the House of Assembly, who rescued a Member of the House from prison (where he was confined for debt) by a writ of habeas corpus, signed by his Honour the Chief Justice ; he was tried for the act before the Court of Common Pleas of the island, and the Special Jury gave a verdict of 8371. 14s. 2d. damages. The piracies in the West Indies are more frequent than ever ; they are attended with the most ferocious and cruel acts. The Barb aloes Papers report that BOLI VAR had arrived at Bogota.
