TUE EVENING STAR. LONDON. -• . THURSDAY, NOVnIIBER SO, 1820. Bt•Annnew's DAY.--Holid9 , at the Bank. THE FUNDS. This jay is a holiday at the Bank, but the Stock Exchange is open, and a good deal of business doing. The Market left off brisk. yesterday, and has commenced to. day the same, Consols for Money being 69A ; for the Opg. in Jan. 70 1 / 8 . Nest Tuesday Consols close, consequently the only Stock to job in will be the Reduced. The West End club have taken advantage of this circumstance, and, it is said, have swept two millions of that Stock off the Market : this will create a great scarcity, should they be able to keep it out of the Market. We have given so many additional particulars of the procession of the QUEEN to St. Paul's in another part of our Piper this day, that we shall not detain our Readers long with remarks in this place. To the high grati7i.co.:ion of the Milan Prophets, who had prognosticated nothing but " confusion and blond sher from the visit of her MAJEsry to the Metropo litan Church, they found that their fears were hap rily disappointed. The conduct of the population of London yesterday, gave a direct contradiction to all the calumnies with which it has been fashionable to load them. But then, w^ must observe, there were no military " assisting the Civil Power" in maintain ing public tranquillity, as has but too often been the practice of late years. The proceedings of yester day afford abundant evidence that the people, when left to themselves, are never riotous. The multitude assembled yesterday was immense ; perhaps the same number of people never was before brought together either in this or any other city. Had such a multitude been mischievously disposed, no precautions which could have been taken would have been able to restrain them. But the people na turally abhor violence and disorder, and this they have shewn on all occasions when they have not been inter fet-ed with. But those who are eager for a pretext for the employment of a military force on all occasions, wish to have it believed that the people are totally incapable of self-government, and inclined to avail themselves of every opportunity for the commission of disorder, though the people themselves have the strongest interest in the maintenance of good order. Everything yesterday was the effect of free-will; nay, it was the effect of firm and constant love, act ing in defiance of threats, in mockery of the dentin ciations of power, and even the predictions of danger. Myriads upon myriads deserted the labours of the day, upon which the bread of the morrow may de pend, only to be eye-witnesses of the grateful spec tacle. The actors, too—scarcely less numerous than the spectators—bore all the expenses of their own esliibition. There were no Lord Chamberlains yes-. terday discharging their Stipendiary duties with affected gravity and re.il impatience: no Chief- Butlers, or hereditary Champions, preferring their claims for golden cups or golden spurs ! That mighty and -well-ornamented cavalcade, which the - City and People beheld yesterday with pride and astonishment, was the genuine result of disinterested feeling, and of that innate love of impartial justice, and hatred of conspiracy, which we hope will long -characterise our countrymen. Ministers, it is reported, have great hopes that the difficulty of finding others to fill their places, 'will secure to them a new lease of their places. A short time may, perhaps, shew their hopes to be delu sive; for no free government can carry on the public business with advantage to the nation, with out enjoying tte confidence of the people. Of one thing they may rest assured, namely, that their language respecting the QUEEN and those by whom her MAJESTY has been protected, must be more measured than it has been. Englishmen must not have their ears insulted with lamentations . " that the QUEEN should have lent herself to a vile and contemptiblefaction, who seek to overthrow our Con stitution, that they may profit by anarchy and the tri umph of villainy." The People of England are not to be called " ratble"—" a Tile faction!" No whole people can be a faction. A vile faction may endea vow to counteract the public will, but vox Poptdi, 1797. Dsz! Yestetday, the Earl of LIVERIKIRL, Viscount SID• I MOUTH, and Mi. CANNING, had audiences of the XING, at his Palace in Pall-Mall. The Paris Papers ef Monday arrived this forenpon. They contain no domestic news. It is said that the QUEEN of ENGLAND has par chased the estate of Mongeron, near Paris, and that the celebrated Lord 13sinoN has bought, from M. PERRIN' the beautiful chateau of Petitbourg. French Paper. The Baren BERGAMI, who resides at P.tris in the Quertier de la rue de Richelieu, went immediately after his arrival to pay a visit to one of his daughters, who is a boarder at one of the most celebrated schools in Paris.—Journal de Parir. Es:tract of a letter from the Agent to I 4 Lovn's, at Gibraltar, dated 25th October:—" Two American Gentlemm hive arrived here, from Smyrna, to which place they came in an American brig of war, sup pne..l with a view to establish a Commercial Treaty with the Porte." KINGDOM.OF NAPLES. Accounts horn Naples state, that considerable in dignation was felt at the endeavours reported to have been made by Sir WILLIAM A'Cotrar, to in duce the Royal Family to go on board the English squadron. It was believed that, could the KING have beers alkstractid, persuasions would have been 'employed to induce his MAJESTY to issue a Decla ' ration, declaring the people in a state of rebellion. This, no doubt, would have proved highly accept ' able to the Holy Alliance, who, the Neapolitans think, are only Waiting for some plausible pretext to attaelc.them. In - this; however, the Neapolitans are mistaken. The Holy Allies are not waiting for a pre text, but only till.they are prepared for the enterprise. Will this country, in such an event, take a part in the contest? If what has been stated respecting the invitation to the King of NAPLES to go on board the British squadron be true, we can be at no loss to discover. what the inclinations of our Ministers are on that subject. It will be seen from one of the subjcined letters, that Lord SrEwara may be said to be at this moment rather a resident at Troppau than at Vienna, a circumstance which.seems to connect this Gove:nment with the proceedings of the Con gress at that place more closely than can ever prove beneicial to this country. Official accounts have, we understand, beenre ceived in town from Naples, to thel6th instant. Of course they are State sect . e'Ls, bat it has transpired that they announce that orders had been given to the Neapolitan troops to pass the frontier of the Abruzzi and occupy part of the Papal territories, iri conse quence of certain intelligence of the advance of the Austrians on Ancona. It is exceedingly possible that this may be held an auspicious omen by the enemies of Liberty: The Neapolitans will be held to have com menced unprovoked hostilities against their neigh bours; and the necessity of suppressing " Revolu tionary Usurpation," will be loudly proclaimed; for with exclusively Legitimate Rulers there is never any difficulty in proving, that no community should ever take measures for self preservation, till the half of the people have had their brains beat out by those who are holily leagued together for their destruction I Let us.hope that the Neapolitans, as well as the Spa niards and Portuguese, will shew themselves worthy of freedom. We doubt not that they will, and we heartily wish that every device that may be contrived at Troppau, which may have for its object the en: slaving of the Nations in the trammels of Despotism (if it be possible that Holy Allies, assisted too by a British Minister, can engage in such diabolical pro jects), may be frustrated, to the shame and confusion of the devisers. Some accounts which have reached us thii morn ing, stand in such close connexion with the affairs of Naples that we shall here give them a place: TURIN, NOVEMBER 17. The army which the Neapolitan Government has assembled ,in the Abruzzi, consists of thirty bat talions of infantry of the line, sixteen squadrons of heavy and light cavalry, and a park of artillery of fifty pieces. All these troops, which compose the flower of the Neapolitan army, will form the ad vanced corps► In Calabria about 10,000 light infan try are assembled, besides several companies of vo lunteers. A corps of between 18 and 20,000 men, infantry, cavalry, and artillery, which has been re cently reviewed by the Prince Vicar General, has also marched from the capital towards the frontiers. —We are assured, that when the whole army is united, his Royal Highness will take the command in chief, and that he will have under his orders Lieu tenant-Generals Guillaume Pepe, Filangieri, and Florcstan Pepe. The command of the Neapolitan troops which remain in Sicily, is confided to Lieu tenant-General Coletta. A report prevails, that the grand head-quarters of the Austrian Army, which are now at Treviso, will be immediately transferred to Ferrara. Many persons still doubt whether war will take place. They rest their conjectures on the circum stance of the Sovereigns at Troppau having, as is ge- nerally understood, sent a Courier with dispatches to the 'King of Naples. It is not expected, at all events, that hostilities can commence until time is given to his Neapolitan Majesty to give a categorical answer. The marches and counter-marches, there fore, which the Austrian troops are daily making, can only be considered as simple demonstrations. VIENNA, NOVEMBER 17. Lord Stewart multiplies his visits from Troppau to this capital. We see this British Ambassador towards the end of every week. The Ministers assembled at Troppau appear to be very much occupied. The Emperor Alexander has lately received dis patches extraordinary from St. Petersburgh. Prince Metternich, Minister of Foreign Affairs to Austria, has, on the other hand, dispatched from Troppau a courier to the King of Bavaria, with a very im portant communication. Our'preparations for war are pursued with much celerity ; the correspondence of the Aulic Council with Milan is very active. The greatest secrecy is preserved as to the conferp ences between the Sovereigns. They dine almost daily together, and assemble again in the evening,- a The deliberations may probably 13ct till the middle of next month. There is a rumour of transferring the place of meeting to 01rnutx or Vienna, on ac- count of the difficulty experienced in obtaining, at Troppau, proper Uccommodation for the numerous persons in the suite of their Majesties. FRANKFORT, NOVEMBER 2s. We are still positively assured, that a second army of 80,000 men will be formed on the Adige, and will serve as a reserve when the first advances. General Bianchi (created Duke de Casalanza, by Ferdinand of Naples) has refused, it is said, from motives of delicacy and gratitude, to take the com mand of the Army of Expedition. Public opinion gives it to General Frimont, under the orders of the Archduke Ferdinand d'Este. The Note addressed by Count Capo d'lstria to the other Ministers, on the changes which have taken *place in the three countries of the South of Europe, is conceived, it is said, in a very pacific spirit. SPAIN. MADRID, NOVEMBER 16. The KING still remains at the Escurial, enjoying the best health. The Permanent Committee Of the Cortes has been installed since the 10th of this month. ... Letters from Avila state, that several columns of troops have gone in plusuit of MORALES, who is di recting his flight towards the Portuguese frontiers. — The measures taken are such, that the rebel will find some difficulty in escaping. The Archbishop of VALENCIA, accused of having_ caused the stone of the Constitution to be thrown down, has been conducted, under a strong escort, to the :liaison des Ecoles Pieuses. It remains with the KING to decide on the fate of this Prelate. We are assured that the Ministers have already given their opinion respecting him. The Permanent Committee have written to the Ministry, for a detailed Report of the state of the Kingdom. The KING has filled up all the vacant places in the Council of State, by the Bishop of SEGORBE, the Duke de FRIAs, the Marquis de VILLA FRANCA, D. .GASPAR `''!GOOEY, and D. FRANCISCO BALLASTEROS. [These nominations are all in the popular interest, and have been made in consequence Of the )lemon• strance to the KING, noticed in the following passage :] NOVEMBER 18.—An Address was sent yesterday from the Municipal Deputation of MAdrid to the KING, demanding, as " the only *means of saving the State at the present cri'sis, a - Convocation Ex traordinary of the COrtes." " The absence," it was added, " of your MAJESTY has occasioned fears, which are aggravated by the Isominalion to tinguished employments of men' notoriously hostile to the Constitutional system which your MAJESTY has sworn to observe, and which we are ready to defend with the last drop of our blood. We are compelled, Sire, to say, that without some such public manifestation of adhesion to the new institu tions, as will deprive the bitterest of their enemies of all hope, confidence cannot be re-established: Every other measure willle illusory, and the vessel of the State will be in danger of shipwreck." The Avila conspiracy has entirely failed, but Va- lencia has been the theatre of serious troubles on ac count of some outrages committed towards the pillar of the Constitution. The people blamed the Monks, and even the Archbishop, whose Palace they me naced ; but this Prelate, who had already an order of exile, was just on the point of setting off, and suc ceeded in escaping. He goes to Rome. The people demand, with loud cries, General Elio, who is still detained in the citadel. NOVEMBER 19. The King has promised to return immediately to the capital. The most perfect order at present pre ♦ails. It is not thought that the Extraordinary Cortes will be convoked. In the Public Sitting which the Permanent Com mittee of the Congress held on the 16th November, they declared that they did not find themselves in any of the situations in which such convocation is provided for by the Constitution. The Government has published the Decree of the Cortes, sanctioned by the King; which declares the Spanish territory an inviolable asylum for all persons, and property of every description belonging to fo reigners, whether they reside in the kingdom or out of it, under the condition that they shall respect the Monarchy, -and submit , to its laws. The Permanent Committee have named for their President, M. MUNOZ TORREO, Deputy from Estre madura. PORTUGAL. It would appear from the following Official Report respecting what passed on Lord BERBSFORD'S arrival at Lisbon from the Brazils, that the communication which took place between his Lordship and the new Authorities, was wholly verbal, through the medium of General CAMPBELL, though the first accounts sent .to this country gave them the form of a written correspondence : OFFICIAL REPORT. " Lord Beresford, coming from Rio Janeiro in the Vengeur, anchored in this port on the 10th instant, a little before noon. The first advice the Secretary at War, General Azedo, had of his arrival, was brought to him by General Campbell. The i latter Officer informed the Secretary that Lord lleresford bad arrived from Rio Janeiro, something indisposed, and had only learnt the occurrences wh'eh had taken place iu Portugal from Ia fi•herman, whom the Vetrgeur bed !net on the coast i and as he was selisible of the genero,ity with which the Portuguese Government treated British Officers, he requested, as a simple individual andan Engliitman, permission to laud, as he had ar raLgemet,ts to make respecting Iris house (a house taken from the real wormer, witheast the smallest indemnity), and vsti.,tl 6 affairs, he had to settle in Portugal, which recants! sonal attention. " The War Secretary, surprised at this unexpected appc m ance, immediately considered the popular fermentation such al event would create; that the assassination of his Lord4;l, sibly would be inevitable, and that this terrible occurrence Would not only defeat the vigilant measures of the but Llkewise produce fatal consequences. No apprehension w, e entertained of Lord Beredord ; the Government was cernin cf its strength, and of the unanimous wishes of the ation; b ut I was necessary to avoid tumults, and possibly in consideraticn to the British Nation, to the person of his Lordship, and rius the services he had rendered to Portugal, it was likewise necear.ra to prevent his being assassinated. " Ile, therefore, Instantly declared, in the most positive ten,. to General Campbell, that Lord Raesford being now placed circumstances very different to those in which the other Criti Officers were placed, and the name of his Lordship being one odious to the Portuguese people, a tumult must nocessarily Cr. sue, by which means the prudent and cautious measures the Government had taken to prevent disorders, and ru.tintala order and tranquillity, would be defeated, in consequence of which he was not only unable to give his Lordship permissica to land, but besides, in the name of the Government, he a.. pressly forbade it. " With this answer General Campbell departed. " About this time Captain 'Maitland, Commander of the Vo t . rut-, requested the Inspector of the Port to furnish him a boat-load of water, which was instantly done in the usual and a Report sent up to the Secretary of War and Navy, w:.) not only approved his conduct, but ordered him to go on bo:.rd the Vengeur, and tell the Captain and the whole of the Officers, that the measures taken with regard to Lord II rof d had nothing to do with the British Nation, and that the Go ernment was ready to afford the Captain and Olct7s t:.e said vessel, as well as other British subjects, all aid af:d asiii ance, according to the law of Nations, and the relations .1 . friendship which have so long subsisted between the Portuo..-e Nation, King John VI. the Government, and the British Na tion and their King. " The said Officer then proceeded to speak to. Lnrd and representing to him, in lively colours, the state of fermertx. don in which the people were, the danger in which his life w;4, and how odious his name was to the people, and eveit he again intimated to him, on behalf of the Government, tit not Only on no account would he be allowed to land, but that !s ought immediately to leave the port. Lord Betesforcl, having obtained the Decree of the 29th of July, I BCO, in‘r!i:h he was the only and real Vicegerent of the King named for Per tugal (which sufficiently proves the want of foresight in Lri who planned and advis,:d our good King to select him), ecru lir in his plans expectei to avenge himself on all those he cocsiderid his rivals, and reduce this mouldering kingdom to the state of a miserable colony, perhaps more poor and miserable than the !a which the Papal States have always been kept. Everythl:g !:c heard and saw appeared to him a dream. Ile expostulated it the Officer, but the latter answered hint with firmness, and cording to the express and clear orders which the War SCCrEt27y, on the part of the Government, had given him.—(o es .Rwo, which promises a continuation)." THE ZMY. Several divisions of the 7th Regiment, or English Fusileers- have marched into Belfast, on their rear &Om D erry for Edinburgh. The 13th marched through Belfat, some days ago, to replace them at Derry. Monday, the 71st (Highland Light Infantry, marched into Barracks in Canterbury. NAVAL INTEL LIGENCR. Sir Wit. Wisastaw, Bart.
