•••• • King John 11. and of Niasnuel, in their paternal designs for the aggrandisement Of iheitilitive 101111 P Amoupt them we shall find Mt brave and chivalrous companions of the Albuquerques, the Verna, Almeidas, Oamas, - Cunhas, Pachecos, and Ataydes ; men whose names are inseparably associated with the proudest meollee • nose of national glory..snd .consecrated by the purest patriotism; to whose memories it would be derogatory to compare the wretched apostates who 'attested their own unblushing baseness by subscrib in; to an infamoui decree, subversive of the right of their lee amide Queen, Donna Maria da Gloria—were it not that the very contrast of unsullied honour, with such venal corruption, may ex cite the generous indignation of all enlightened and liberal spirits; and perpetuate, in the bitter accretions of a betrayed country, the infamy of those " fanatical hypocrites," who, for their own sordid pr rposett„ would Swear allegiance to the government of any usurper, as they did to that of Bonaparte in 1808 ; to the insurgent govern ment of Oporto in 1820; and to Don Miguel in 1828. The rumples with which history has famished us, indisputably prove, that although a foreign Prince can never succeed to the throne of Portugal, yet Portuguese Princes may, of right, claim the succession to, and possess, the crowns of foreign states, without in fringing the Lamego Act of Settlement. Thus, the birth of Don Pedro's son, the Imperial Prince of Brazil, having taken place subsequent to the deciaretion of Brazilian independence, he stands In the condition of a foreigner, and is debarred fram all claim or pre. •tension to the inheritance of the Portuguese kingdom—" guts ana gram nohow: nosirtnie Reruns ire for de Poritagedentilase s"— but that Prince's sisters, having been ban in the united king. dons of Portugal, Brazil, and Algarve, possess actual and eventual . rights to the Portuguese succession according to thepreadence, in order of time, of their several births. So that even were a compro mise to be now effected between the Queen Donna Maria da Gloria, and her uncle, the Infante Don Miguel, it could only be done by guaranteeing the eventual rights of her sisters, in case of the Queen's death without issue ; or by violating the great principle of heredi tary right. - - IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, FEB. 10. The House met at Svc, and adjourned shortly afterwards, there being no public business to transact.

As for our contemporary, the Post-.s kturna4 c on which corruptiOn and ignorance have long set the& twofold, seal—virulence and vituperation from him are propor tioned always in the rationale of public desert. Some interesting documents will be found under our SOUTII AMERICAN head, emanating from our pliant countryman General O'LZA RY, whose conduct through out the arduous service with which he was entrusted, seems to have been marked by equal bravery and judg ment. We are in possession of the gallant General's despatch to the Columbian Secretary at War, containing the details of Cos DO V A'S defeat, and shall lay them be fore our readers to-morrow. It would appear that the definitive treaty of peace be tween. Columbia and Peru had been signed on the 22d 'September. Of its ratification there is.not the smallest doubt. We sincerely trust the contest so happily termi nated, will be the last between two States, which are' bound together by the common ties of interest and nationality. The representatives of the people were fast collecting at Bogota, from all parts of the Republic, to attend the Congress, which would most probably be openeffby the LIBERATOR in person, as he was expected td reach the capital in the first days of December. An Evening Paper, which — has within the last fort night assumed a species of initiative in South American affairs, informs us that in the debate of Monday night, relative to the policy of Ministers towards the new States, Mr. PEEL made use of " strict impartiality," instead of " strict neutrality." As the STAR is the only paper in which any specific article appeared, we presume the pa ragraph in question is pointed at ourselves. In thus noticing it, our opinion that the speech of the Home Se cretary holds out no pledge for a change of our ab surd policy is precisely the same. There is only one strait course left to us; and since it is dictated by inte rest, duty, and justice, why do not Ministers' adopt it at once ? We are bound at once to interpose, and prevent every future attempt on the part of Spain against her old colonies, now the natural allies and friends of England. The speech from the throne has produced an universal feeling of dissatisfaction. All the provincial papers which we receive contain animadversions on its substance—or rather its want of substance—as well as on its inelegancy. We subjoin the opinions of some of the French journals on the same subject : From the Journal des Debats. As to internal affairs, the questions which at this period so deeply interest the nation—the jealousy between the manufacturers and the agriculturists, end the distress of both.—the impending re newal of the East India Charter the reduction of the rate of interest—the Bill on the Currency—all these are but slightly alluded to. Is this meagre Speech an indication of the lukewarm. ness of the newly-opened Session ? We think not. The Duke of Wellington has to face a band of men of talent, and his administra tion is not so unanimously approved of that all the fractions which subdivide the old and new opposition will be paralysed in this Session, as they were In the last by the Emancipation. . From the Constitutionnel. The Speech of the King of England, more remarkable fee its ob. murky than its explanations, betrays the embarrassment. of the Ministry, and the difficulties of their political situation. From the National. The Address from the Crown of England to the Parliament was eagerly looked forward to in this, as it bus•beea in all former years; but it has not satisfied the expectations of those who dashed more than the actual events that have taken place in the world. This Speech, made on the memoir of the solution of a question of magni. tude, is, as might have been foreseen, empty and feeble. inviting the Council to examine " a Plan for the astabiWtment of a Tribunal of Comma:so at St. Pctamburgh ;" and also to coneldcr " with what artichs of national Mandamus the factures are able to supply Georgia sad the:mum*, biped** °Okapi, ' au4 whotpiriliges are necerror7 to Immo tbat =do II" smug, Dim 94. • Baron Roes, second Commander of the 44th division, set out CO the Bth foe Osorgewsk ; of the six regiments composing that dlvi. sion,lfour are to go to the line of the Caucasus, and the other two to remain at Akbalsik. By order of the Government, a Committee has been establWted, of which Major-Oineral Scbskowskl is Prod. dent, to consider of mesas to extirpate the: dioceses peculiar to the provinces of Caucasus, and with this view accurately to investigate the causes of those that originate in the climate, or local draw stances. WARSAW, Jiw. Sl& All the letters from Cracow contain particulars of the immense accu.nulatiou of mow in the Carpathian mountains, whelks we may infer with certainty that on the setting in of the mild moon great inundations of the Vistula will take place. BRUSSELS, Fan. 5. Yesterday, at two o'clock in the morning, seven merealitile csourias passed through this city, all from Paris, with despatches for Ant werp and Amsterdam. We suppose limn this, that there has been some considerable variation in the Funds. A British Cabinet Messenger passed through yesterday morning, on his way hots Constantinople to London, with despatches. He says, that in the memory of man there has not been such severe frost and so much snow'in Germany as this year. In Hungary, be says, the snow bas been so abundant that it lies as high as the tops of the houses. Fay. 3.—His Majesty has authorised the formation of an In. surance Company at Brussels, by the name of " Company of In. nuance against soa.risk, five, and damage done by ball." The capital of the Company is fired at a million of florins, in two thou sand shares, of 600 florins. The devotion of the society is fixed for tventy.five yam—Bream/a Papers, Fed. 6. Park Papers of Monday were received last night. There is some talk still of modifications in the Ministry. The Constitutionnel has this passage on the subject : " It was again rumoured this morning that the Ministry was about to be modified ; some said according to the principles of an ardent counter-revolution; others, ac cording to the changing counter-revolution. One men- tioned Messrs. VITROLLES, BERTRIER, DIMON ; another Messrs. ROY, MAItTIGNAC, and even POR TALIS, who were to unite with the ruins of the RICHE LIEU and VILLELE Ministry. M. de POLIGNAC would place himself at the head of this species of strange coa lition of violence, fraud, and weakness. As to candoUr and good faith, there is nothing about them in the ques tion. Those are Revolutionary virtues." The following extracts will be found interesting: From the Messager des Chambres of Monday. PARIS, Pas. 8, Nowt. It is affirmed that the expedition against Algiers was resolved upon in the Council of Thursday evening, and that the Spanish Ambassador immediately despatched &courier to his sovereign to in. form him of it. It is believed that this courier is the bearer of an application Rom the French Government, in case the expedition should have comics to touch, or to take in provisions in the ports of the Peninsula: 16,000 men, it is said, will compose the army ' that is to be landed. It is affirmed that Genteel Bowman has re. served to himself the command of the army. Admiral Duperre is spoken of ea commander of the Seet ; General IA Hitte of the artil lery, and General Valu6 of the engineer s, are to direct the operations of the siege. • Yesterday (Sunday) the Commission far the subsaiption to par chase the domain of Chambord was received by his Majesty, in pre mace of their Royal Highnesses the Dauphin and Dauphines', the Doduse de Berri, and the Children of France. At tile audience the young Prince received the present of this domain. The Corms. pondents of the Departments were present, as well as the Function. sties of the Department of Loire and Cher, at this ceremony. The Archbishop of Paris spoke in the name of the Commission, on this occasion. M. oosselin one of the most illustrious members of the ancient Academy of Belles Lettrta, and caw at the most learned geographers of Europe, died yesterday, at the age of 88, having been born at Lille, in 1741. Yotterdaj the thaw at length set in, and this morning the dorma nt*: is 6 degrees above Zero. From the Constitutionnel of Monday. PARIS, FEL 8. Intrigues aoss each other every moment, in every direction. All men's ambition appeals to be excited; certain politicians, who com. planed loudly a few weeks since, preserve a prudent silence ; they avoid those circles in which they might Mild Important inquiries; owe might even say that they fear their very looks to be interrogated. The law of Election is always a victim to be immolated ; the ambitious contend who shall strike it first. M. do Pavane does not want as who present themselves for the part of mcrificers.

The speech of the King of England will by no moans satisfy the cariosity with which it was expected.

His Imperial Majesty broke two of his ribs, the Empress received a alight scratch, and Prince Leuchtemberg dislocated his arm ; but it appears by the last accounts that they had got well again. The most important in. formation is that war had not been declared against Portugal, nor had the new loan been oonfinned. Brasil Stock had improved to 72, and the Exchange was rather lower, 244.
