THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. SATURDAY, APRIL 24. THE KING. The following Bulletin has been issued this day:— " WINDSOR CASTLE, Amu. 24, 1830. " The KING has passed two good nights, and conti- noes better." (Signed) " H. HALFORD." Amongst the expedients which have been devised for the purpose of maligning the conduct and character, and so paralyzing the exertions, of the REGENCY established at Terceira, in the name and on the behalf of the QUEEN Of PORTVG AL,— the partisans of the blood-stained 11 to VEL have not scrupled to assert, that the authorities so consti tuted, and installed in that island, have determined upon granting letters of marque, and allowing privateers to cruise against the commerce of Portugal. To a statement t.o invi.liou , , and so unfounded, we are enabled to give the most positive contradiction. The circumstances in which they are placed, call for no such measures on the part of the REGENCY :—the war—the righteous war—they wage, has for its glorious object the chastisement of a traitor and usurper ;—not the deterioration of the Portuguese kingdom, nor the desolation and injury of their native land. Deserted as the sacred princi ples of legitimacy have been, by those whose interests should have dictated to them a more prudent, if not a wore generous and noble course ; betrayed—shame fully betrayed—as her MAJESTY'S rights have been, by those who were bound, by the obligations of national treaties, and by the still more sacred bonds of natural alliance, to protect her fortunes, and to rescue her crown from the grasp of a perfidious tyrant ;—the young QUEEN'S cause is, in itself, too good, and the devotion of her loyal subjects too pure and too hearted, to render it necessary for her representatives to resort to a mode of warfare which, though it might be de structive to the maritime interests of Portugal, would be unworthy the high character which the Re gency has hitherto maintained, and prejudicial to the future government of the QUEEN. The state of Portu gal is truly appalling ; and the followiag extracts of a letter from . Lisbon, brought by the last packet, warrant the belief that the affairs of that wretched country are rapidly approaching a crisis : . 1 The period granted by the Spanish Minister, Acosta„ to this Oovetrunent to consider on the general amnesty, having expired with out any revocation of refusal, that Minister had stopped all diploma tk intercourse, end made all the preparations of departute as if to go to Spain ; but hardly any body was duped by the Don ; and, in fact, instead of taking the road eastward to Badajos, he preferred going westward to Cintra,whcre he is enjoying himself, notwithstanding the equinortial tempest Optitie had ben for some days pat. lie left hi, residence, on the lids, inst. not at all as confident as Mr. M ace rusts, is, that the amnesty will be obtained. Indeed, our rulers - have declared that " they would willingly grant it if they could do so in aafety,but that owing to the state of the country, in signing such a document, they would sign theft death-warrant as they would not be able to op pose the re-action that would immediately rise against them." This at all merits, is Undid enough ; for it admits that this Government estistsiry violence, u well as by usurpation; aod thet the moment the theumindi of respectable and iplitiendal individuals who are now buried alive in &ague% should be allowed to breathe huh air, the tgraut sal bli pig would vaalab onooqueatly, all that your Mi• nisters have said in Parliament about Miguel Icing King by the will of the people, is thus formally denied by his rwn Government. " All last week, as well as in the beginning of the present, whilst the great negotiation on the part of England, France, and Spain, was going on,—for in the name of time three Powers M. Acosta pretended to treat,—not a single day passed with out long chains of convicts being seen erasing all the low ' part of Lisbon from the prisons to the ladiahouse, and from thence to the - depot of Cove da Moura, previously to their embarkation in the large 1,200 ton transport, fisting out for the convict settlements of Mozambique and Gra. Many of those convicts are respectable political victim, thus chained along with assassins and the worst of criminast. Two of the former were particularly remarkable for their higi spirit and dig nity. One was a venerable priest, who followed the chain in his ecclesiastic robes and cap, which he put on purposdy to show that he held it an honour to suffer for the cause of loyalty. Two days after, a naval officer followed the urns example, "peering in his richest uniform, with the order of Christ at his breast, although tied up along with the worst of villains I But suppose that at last an amnesty is obtained, which we do not believe, except it is a paper one, the unfortunate men now embarking will go erchalned to the East Indies, and very likely die there before even the account of the pretended amnesty can reach them. '• Count de Basto, who was entirely given up on account of his illness and his advanced age, has recovered most astonishingly, and is again able to resume his double ministry of the home and navy departments, held ad interim by the Duke of Cadaval. " The financial department Is worse than ever, for the debt In creases, whilst the revenue decreases in a still greater proportion. " Accounts from St. Michael's, arrived yesterday, mention that ' , two merchant vessels coming out of Terceira had been taken by the two blockading ships ; and there is also a report of a summons hav ing been sent by DOXNA Alaitrais Regency to Admiral PaEor►, Afroutz.'s Governor-General of the Azores, residing at St. Mi chael's, ordering him to submit to legitimate government, and to proclaim the Queen of Portugal, but not the charter.' This, how ever, is a mere report, which we have not been able trace to any cre ditable origin. " There are still reports of several alterations in the governments of provinces, and of the atrocious General Telles Jordao going to take the command of the province of Minho, In lieu of General Don Al varo, who goes to replace the Governor of Madeira. The Brigadier Commander of Police is spoken of as Governor of St. Julian, instead of Telles Jordao. The change would be a comparative blessing for the unfortunate prisoners, as he is a well-bred, kind, sort of a man for a Aliguelite policeman. " A brig of war has just arrived from the Azores, but nothing has transpired. The frigate Diana remains there alone, if she is not on her way home, as is likely, on account of the equinox." Though we do " labour in our vocation," most stre nuously, to expose the delinquencies of our Ministerial op ponents, and to reform the abuses, and check the backslid ing', of some of our once popular but now apostate contem poraries ; yet wo could never think seriously of troubling ourselves with the political ravings and senile absurdities of the Post. To startle old " goodman Dull" from the dreams of his dotage, would be as ridiculous as to emulate QUIXOTTE'S chivalrous charge upon the flock of sheep, or to wage war upon " rats and mice,and such small deer." But when we see the fantastic dotard strut abroad like the daw in borrowed plumes, or like the us arrayed in the lion's hide,—we must pluck off the disguise he so awk wardly assumes, and " hang a calf skin on his recreant limbs." The barefaced plagiarisms which this " minion of the Moon" has perpetrated upon the STAR, must not escape exposure. It was, no doubt, very necessary for the Post to be fervent in his protestations of loyalty, on the occasion of his M Ai ESTE'S lamented illness, and vehement in his indignation, touching the mal-practices of some por tion of the press, with reference to that illness; but it was not necessary for him " to commit flat plagiary," either to be in fashion at court, or out of temper in town. That our readers, however, may see with what perfect noncha lance the tenor of our observations has been adopted, and our very language borrowed, by the Post, we refer to the leading article of that paper of this day, and to the Star of Monday, April 19 ; Wednesday, April 21 ; and Fri day, April 23. Madras Papers to the 20th of December have been re ceived this morning ; but they do not bring any intelli gence of moment. It appears that the censorship of the press has been abolished at Malacca; but at Singapore it still continued in force. Jamaica Papers have been received by the Packet this day to the 17th March. They give deplorable accounts of the dissentions in Central America. It would appear that a struggle between BoLivAn and PAEZ is inevi table. Suspicions have arisen—not without good grounds —in Jamaica, of the adulteration of the Colombian bul lion. A quantity of doubloons, then in circulation in George Town, from a deficiency in weight, were examin ed, and found to be composed of brass and zinc, hay ing a slight covering of fine gold. The Royal Gazette of the 11th March says :—" We have also seen gold in bars, which appears to be so adulterated that its value can only .be ascertained by assay. It behoves our mer chants and others to examine most narrowly all bullion now received from Colombia." Canton Papers to the 18th of November, received this morning, afford room for expecting that the recent dif ferences between the Chinese authorities and the British merchants may be amicably adjusted. A Proclamation had been issued setting forth that English country ships, entering the Port of Canton, must pledge themselves to take an export cargo before they are allowed to sell their import goods. CITY, Twzi.vt °Tung. All the reports of yesterday, in regard to his Majesty, having died away this morning, the funds have resumed their former steadiness- Consols which left off yesterday at 03 to j for the account, opened this morning at 93ji to I, and for mosey 93 to ; yet little business is going forward. To.day the books close at the Bank for the assents and dissents of the 4 per cents; at a later hour in the day we may give some communication on the subject. In the Foreign Market Spanish bonds have got up 1 per cent. A Jamaica mail has arrived by the Lady Wellington, sailed from Jamaica 16th March, from Cartbegana 25th February, Croc 26th Much. From the Jamaica Royal Gazette of March 13. Accounts from Rio de la Bathe, to the Sd inst. have been received at Jamaica. Business was completely at a stand in coniequeata at the determination of General Pies "male Venezuela a fedora state; the result hu been that Bolivar bas personally proceeded tra Ve nesuela, and left directions to be followed by a larie body a mops t o the Venezuela lines, to be ready to act if .neeesury.

In consequence of this in. telligence the battalion Boyars, of GOO men, which arrived tt Rio de k Hache as the vanguard of the attacking army, declared in fa vour of Pacz, and placed the governor, the military commander, and minister of police, under arrest. The British ship Polly was seised, and employed as a transport. Some contributions were levied at Maraciabo on the foreign merchants." By the brig Harpy we learn, that while she was at Honduras, that settlement was sisiteti by a Guatamelian schooner of war, hav ing on board General Sachet. It was supposed to relate to the ex pulsion of the old Spaniards from Honduras. Intelligence from Colombia states that two regiments, interded to operate against Pace, had revolted with their officers, and carried them prisoners to Pam HALF-PAST ONI. Consols have been fluctuating from 93e to 93i for the Account; at present they are 9311, ar.d for Money 931 wI. Au express has arrived from Paris, via Boulogne, but nothing has transpired. In the Foreign Market, Spanit.ll is the chief attraction; got up li per cent. A Madras E.rtraordinary Gearlie, dated stli Dec. states, that it is reported from a channel to which it gives credit, that the ob. noxious half baits order* have been cane:4ll.d by the Court of Di rectors; at yet this intelligence rests on the authority of private letters, but in full confidence that it will at an early period be con firmed by orders of the Governor-General in Council. Canton Papers have just been received at the North and South American Coffee-house to the 18th November. They contain the Governor's long reply to the British merchants' pt titian, and speak thus :—" The select committee have in the most handsome manner explained their views to the British merchants at Canton, in a letter which, we hope, we may or.e day be permitted to publish. We un derstand that additional regulations are suggested by them, of which the Governor has declared that there are some which may be adopted. We cannot conclude without congratulating the public on indications of a favourable change, already experienced in the transaction of business at Canton." ComxtnclAL REMARRS.—In the commencement of the month there was much activity amongst the Opium Brokers, sever.l parcels of Patna were sold at 845, and Maliva 820. The demand was of short duration : prices have again fallen.—There is still much ob struction experienced from the Mandarin boats cruising in the neigh bourhood of Lintin. In consequence of the Company's annual supply of Woollens being kept out of the Market, there has been a demand for every description of this manufacture, though not ac. companied with an advance in the prices. Iteport speaks favourably of the quality of this year's product of tea, but states the quantity to be diminished. The tea merchants, and various manufactuters connected with British trade, are surer. ing severely under the existing state of affairs. Trade is generally very dull, and want of money much complained of amongst the Chinese, as the Company's treasury will not be opened for bills on Bengal until a favourable termination of the pending negociationa. livaapooz., APRIL 22.—There has been a large import this week, twenty-nine vessels having arrived, and about as many thou. sand bags of cotton ; in consequence of which a slight demand has been made. Prices of all descriptions are lower, from of a penny to i of a farthing per pound. We stated some time ago, that a Board of General Officers had been engaged in the investigation of a charge, made by the widow of an officer, against a friend of her husband, foe having retained to his own use two sums of money with which he had been intrusted by the husband of the complainant twenty years ago, to pay over to an agent in Dublin. We also stated, that the result of the inquiry was most satisfactory to the cha racter of the accused, the charge having been negatived by the clearest evidence. At the same time we ex pressed our surprise that such a tribunal should have been appointed to inquire into a disputed account between two private individuals at the public expense. The following is a copy of the official letter upon the subject : " Lord IDownes, Secretary to the Master-General of the Ordnance (Lord Beresford,) to Colonel George Wright, of the Royal En siles. " Office of Ordnance, March 31. " The Master-General of the Ordnance having had be fore him the proceedings of a Court of Inquiry, assembled for the investigation of the claim advanced against you by the widow of the late Major Fitzmayor, of the Royal Artillery, I am directed to acquaint you that his Lordship is happy to find that the allegations of Mrs. Fitzmayor have not been sustained ; but, on the contrary, that the Court has reported that the pecuniary transactions between you and Major Fitz mayor, as far as the Court has had to investigate, has placed your conduct in an honourable point of view. (Signed) DOWN ES." A Jamaica Paper, received this day, states that there are accounts from Maracaibo, setting forth that the mis sion of the Duke of MONTABZ LLO from the Court of Versailles to Bogota was to negotiate a marriage between a French Princess and BOLIV AR—on condition that he would accept a crown, and form an alliance with the House of Bourbon ! It was further reported that Bou- NT au had condescended to yield to these entreaties; and that the object of the visit of Admiral FLEMING and General GRANT to the Carraccas was to counteract the designs of France against the British interests in South America, by offering assistance to General PA EZ, and ef fectually to separate the Republic of Venezuela from that of Columbia. " Years, however, must roll on," says the Jamaica print, " before either peace, stability, or confidence can be established in that wretched country." The Earl of WESTMORLAND arrived at Swillington on a visit to Sir J. LOWTHER, Bart. on the 14th inst. and remained till Sunday. Sir JOHN still continues there. JOHN HENRY LOWTHER, Esq. M.P. left Swillington on "Ilursday, for London. Mr. CoNiiw.—We were not aware when we put for ward our article in reference to this person in THE MAIL of Monday, that there were strong and overwhelming circumstances of aggravation in his case—that the burning was a premeditated act, intended to operate as an example upon the factious and lawless tenantry in their dealings with their landlords—that Mr. Com YN actually swore informations against an innocent man, for the act deliberately perpetrated by himself ; and that the respite was issued for the specific purpose, and it was so stated to the convict, of inquiring into an alle gation of lunacy put forward on his behalf; but as it has turned out, without the slightest grounds of existence. We have felt it to be our duty to state these facts, which only came to our knowledge since the publi cation of Monday ; and we are bound to admit, that the Government and Law advisers of the Crown could not act otherwise than they have done.—Dublin Even. Mail. On Tuesday evening an unfortunate man, who de scribed himself as having been an attorney, was found in a most deplorable condition on the steps of a door in Garden-court, Lambeth. He was enabled, after warming himself a few minutes at the station-house, to say that his landlord had turned bim out, being unable to pay his rent. On being taken to the workhouse the poor man died. The circumstances of his extreme destitution and death are said to be likely to be inquired into by the parish.

As for the news contained in the Gazette of Lisbon, it is be ! teed by the bliguelites alone. It is amusing to observe the i...'ses which it bestows on Chink.' X. for his dismissal of the Chambers ro abrupely, ' when we consider the various calculations de by all parties as •to the removal of the Polignac Ministry. Like the various eupporters of the Indian Mythology, Miguel is s .eported by Ferdinand of Spain ; Ferdinand Is supported by c 6 arlea X. and Pollgnac ; and the two latter are propped up by Or Duke of Wellington and the Earl of Aberdeen. On whom tt es , repose, you know well. Since the arrival of the new Seen t..ry from Madrid, the Spanish Ambassador has betaken himself the cool shades of Cintra. As for the amnesty, no person thinks a• :iat it now ; for the Miguelite Government has, it appears, de : . -ed that it cannot grant one without incurring immediate danger being upset. Cheat disquiet and dissatisfaction have been expressed at the :.•e:r.ents of the Duke of Wellington, in his speech on the Mar -1 sGf Clanricarde's motion, wherein his Grace is represented to .:re said. that the Portuguese to a man were all favourable to " It is a wilful, shameful error on the part of the Duke," British resident•to me to-day.

The celebration of hii MAJEsT v's Birth-day, in consequence of his latuentei indisposition, was postponed from yesterday to Ftidar, the 7th of next month ; the customary official denteil stmtions did not take place in the metropolis ; th e standing orders in this respect were countermanded ; a n d there was no display of flags, nor no firing of guns throughout the day.

Yesterday was the first anniversary of his MAJMY'S birthday since the New Post-office was opened. Crowds of persons collected in its vicinity to witness the mails and their attendants arrive and depart. All the officers of that establishment, at least those connected with the mails and the delivery of letters, were dressed in their new clothes ; and the mail-coaches, as usual on the KING'S birthday, were new, but no procession took place. The Marquis of ANGLESEY had a grand dinner party yesterday, at his house, Old Burlington-street. THE Dna x or SUSSEX.—As some of our readers may possibly be unacquainted with the passion of the Royal Duke for collecting bibles, we state from our own knowledge, that the library of the Noble Bibliopist now contains a copy of almost every edition of the Sacred Scriptures which ever emanated from the erudite penmen, or the press of any country, at any era, amounting to above 4,000 volumes! This immense and valuable col lection, it is surmised, the Duke intends to bequeath to Trinity College, Cambridge, to which his attashment is well known. His Royal Highness has the reputation of being an accomplished Hebraist, and it is even hinted that a new version of the Pentateuch may, at no distant period, be expected from his hand.—Court Journal.

Her Grace the Duchess of Northumberland had an Evening party, at which the Rainer Family attended, and delighted the company with some of their national airs. A subscription is raising, and finds many most liberal supporters, for extending the advantages of education all over Greece by the establishment there of schools on the Lancasterian plan. The public will not be surprised to find that many of those benevolent and publicted indivi duals who have mainly contributed to the introduction of the system here, and its diffusion in foreign cbuntries. are taking the lead on this occasion. An alliance for such purposes may justly be termed " holy," and the members of it will acquire a claim on the gratitude of Greece, more than equal to that which bag been attempted for her liberation from political tyranny. I
