Reduced shut All is impatience and anxiety, in every circle in this immense Capital, for the result of the proceed ings against the QUEEN, which are to re-commence on Tuesday next. To anticipate the opening speech of Mr. BROUGIiAbI, in defence of her MAJESTY, would be a vain attempt. It is expected that it will present u luminous analysis of the nature of the evidence at tempted to be established against her MAJESTY, and to contain a most powerful appeal to the feelings, the honour, and the justice of their Lordships. Our Readers shall have an accurate and ample Report of it on the very day on which it will be delivered. The foreign accounts from various quarters, given in our columns this day, possess much interest. It will be seen that the German manufacturers have been exerting their influence to induce their countrymen to use only their productions, to the ex clusion of all lbreign articles. This is natl.]: al enougk on their part; for it is for their individual interest: but as it is as obviously for the individual interest of others to buy those articles which can be procured • best for the same price—or the cheapest of a given quality—they will ultimately be disappointed in their object. We have the same kind of patriotic dreamers among ourselves, but fortunately for the prosperity of the country they are diminishing in numbers daily. —lt is for the interest of all that every man should have the power to expend his earnings wherever he can get most for his money—or, in other words, to buy every necessary at the lowest price—for the less he is obliged to pay for his coat or his shoes, the more he will have left wherewith to buy shirts and stockings ; and, consequently, the greater the benefit tp a greater number of manufacturers. And (to narrow the argument still more) the less he pays for clothes and furniture—for people cannot live naked or houseless—the better will he be able to feed him self and his children. We have before us a letter from Vienna, dated the ]4th instant, which states, that after the review of the Austrian forces takes place at Pest, the whole will be marched to Italy. Nothing official had been pub lished on the subject of the approaching interview of the Allied Sovereigns, but the last report was, that they would meet, towards the end of October, in Aus trian Silesia. The greatest activity prevails in the military department, and troops continue to march towards Italy. It is tho 'gilt, however, that Austria will not commence offensive operations against Na ples, unless with the approbation of the Ministers of the Allied Powers. The Duke of WELLINGTON is expected at the Camp at Pest. It is also reported that communic tions of great importance had been made from the Court of Vienna to the Governments of Bavaria and Wurtemberg. There was a talk likewise of a note of the Russian Ministry, addressed to the King of SAXONY, relative to the affairs of Spain. An article from Trieste, of the 12th inst. says it was believed that the Turks intended to intercept the communication between Corfu and Albania. Num bers of small Ottoman vessels of war were cruizing in that quarter, and doing much injury to commerce. An article from Augsburg, of the 19th inst. states as a report, that An PACIIA, in consequence of the defection of a part of his army, has made overtures to the PORTE, offering to quit the Ottoman territory, on receiving pecuniary indemnities for his family and the most faithful of his Officers. These propo sals have been transmitted to Constantinople. For other articles sae our following columns. The French Papers of Wednesday last arrived this morning. The domestic intelligence they contain is very uninteresting. The event on which the hopes of the House of BOURBON are fixed, the auouchement of the Duchess de BERRI, had not taken place. Her Royal Highness continues to enjoy good health.— The following are extracts: PARIS, SEPTEMBER 26. The Duchess de Berri promenaded for'an hour yes terday, on the Terrace.

VIENNA, SEPTEMBER 11 We are assured that our Ambassador at Naples, the Prince JABLONOWSKY, has been recalled, and that he has quitted that City with the whole of the persons attached to the Embassy. Letters from Italy announce that the Austrian troops, which have arrived between the Eisach and the Brenta, are going into cantonments. That part of our army, which is in Italy, has been placed on the War Establishment since September 1. NAPLES AND SICILY. It remains to be seen whether the attitude which Austria is assuming, will have any detrimental effect on the Neapolitan Revolution. We say " detrimental effect;" for, often, those measures which are intended to subvert, tend only to the better establishment of liberal principles, by calling forth more effectually the energies and resources of their supporters. The Neapolitan Minerva says, that at the period of the Revolution, the Court was in perfect harmony with all the Powers of Europa, but that it had not a formal alliance with any but Austria. This treaty, which is dated is 1815, is defensive ; the conditions are not known, but it contains some articles tending to support the King in the administration of the in _ _ _ . ternal affairs of the kingdom. One of our letters from Naples, of the 6th instant, states a very important f►ct (if it shall be confirmed), namely, that the Cabinet of Vienna had, on the Ist inst. notified officially to the Court of Naples, that it has assembled an army in Italy "•only as a precautionary measure, for the purpose of maintaining tranquillity in the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom." But if nothing hostile be intended towards Naples, why have the Cabinets of Vienna and St. Petersburgh refused to recognize the mission of the new Ambassadors from the Court of Naples? NAPLES, SEPTEMBER 3. On no Revolution have Literature, Journals, and Pamphlets had less influence than on ours of the 6th July. - Whoever, from the restriction of King Fer dinand in 1815, up to that time, had travelled through these Provinces, where it was planned and broke out, from Fondi to Otranto, and from Reggio to Manfredonia, would have found it difficult to meet with any other Journal than the official Gior nale delle Due Sicilie. In the most of the public Clubs, or in the Coffee-houses, even this was not to be seen, and nowheie was less interest taken in European politics than in our country towns. Every interest, from the Intendants down to the day la bourers, was directed to our internal Institutions, and to the improvement or censure of them. The more there is written for or against any subject, the more the irresistible longing for it, which seises men when it is enveloped in obscurity and mystery, be comes enfeebled. The discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of a Constitution in thousands of Books and Journals, would not have moved a leg or an arm of a single small Proprietor or Farmer in Capitanata or Basilicata, whereas this idea pro nounced by the Carbottari, under the veil of em• blems and allegories, filled them with fanaticism The authors by profession, and amateurs, are . indemnifying themselves for their former silences— Every Press is in requisition ; the very worst descrip tion of paper has risen to a considerable price.— Twelve Journals appear regularly.

We learn by letters of the 26th August from Palermo, that the presence of the Neapolitan army, commanded by General Pepe, had intimidated the Palermitans, and that the negociations which bad been commenced with the Junta were successful; the City of Palermo agreeing to submit to the Con stitutional Government on receiving some privileges. We wait with impatience the confirmation of this, Important news. PORTUGAL The The Prince Ernest packet, which arrived at Fal mouth on Sunday, sailed from Lisbon on the 15th instant. Lisbon was then perfectly tranquil, though the Revolutionary troops were expected to enter that city on the following day. The Regency had pub lished the following Address a few days before the packet sailed : REPRESENTATION OF THE REGENCY OF LISBON TO THE PROVISIONAL JUNTA ESTABLISHED AT OPORTO. °' The Governors of the Kingdom to the Junta which formed itself in the City of Oporto, and which calls itself the Su preme Junta of the Kingdom. " The Governors of the Kingdom, considering that the most sacred right entrusted to them by our august Sovereign is that of maintaining peace between the inhabitants of the kingdom, and preserving untouched the unity of the Crown, together with the independence of the Monarchy, have put in force the extra ordinary powers reposed in them by the King for urgent occa sion; and, acting as interpreters of his pateri•al sentiments, have resolved in his royal name to convoke the Cortes, which arc to assemble. " This is the day in which letters are dispatched to all the Corporations of the kingdom, inviting them to proceed to the election of Representatives, conformably to the usages and cus toms of the nation. Let this, therefore, be the auspicious day of concord for all who have the hearts of Portuguese. The Go. vernors of the Kingdom comprehend in their sure desires, in their well-founded hopes, the very Junta which has been esta blished in the city of Oporto, and do not hesitate to address to it, as well as to all the other classes and individuals of the nation, the words of reconciliation. Let our hearts bury in perpetual oblivion eke memory of recriminations and errors which have been conunitted either voluntarily or by inadvertence, and let them begin a new era of harmony and mutual confidence, by means of the ties that shall be formed between the Sovereign and the Representatives of the Nation, legitimately assembled in the royal name. " Penetrated with these sentiments, the Governors of the kingdom cannot cease to repeat the wish which they have so lemnly announced, declaring that the Portuguese of all classes, ' who listened to the voice of the Government of Oporto, and joined it for a short time against the legitimate Government of the kingdom, need dread neither hatred, nos vengeance, nor punishment, on account of political events. " On receiving the first intelligence of the events of the 24th of August from the city of Oporto, the Governors of the King dom could not but characterize with severity the conduct of the I Military, who burst the bands of discipline, and of a Junta, who , 'being self-elected, and without observing t he appearance of legal rights—without power emanating from the King, or any acknow ledged mission from the people—entitled itself the Supreme Go vernment, and arrogated the right of convoking the Cortes.— But, at the same time that the Governors of the kingdom censured as they deserved acts so illegal and imprudent, they never ceased to aimit that the greater part, and perhaps even the whole, of the individuals who so compromised themselves, might be excited to such conduct by too great an exaltation of [sentiments otherwise pure, or by insidious foreign intrigues, of which they were ignorant. On this account the Government formed the only resolution which could save the country from the horrors of a civil war, and convoked the Cortes, which re ceive from the Representatives of the Sovereign a character of legality which those Cones never could have which were an nounced by the Junta of Oporto. " You are Portuguese; and this glorious thie f which belongs to you, is sufficient to assure us that neither falsehood nor dissi mulation have found a place in your breasts. Be therefore faith ful to your own declarations, and consistent with yourselves.-- You proclaimed your attachment to the holy Catholic Religion: we all have it engraved on our.hearts. You proclaimed your loyalty to the august Sovereign who reigns over us—and the whole of the nation acknowledges his dynasty, and stands firm in its obedience. As to the Cortes, they are already convoked in the name of the Sovereign; as to the Constitution, the same convocation secures one founded in the ancient laws of this Mo narchy—laws which governed our forefathers in the days of *girl prosperity, in the epoch of their triumphs. If, then, what yes have openly proclaimed be what you sincerely desired, your wishes are-already accomplished; and nothing remains for yos now, but that, divesting yourselves of an authority which rot have hitherto exercised without any legal title, and which from I this moment you must exercise without any reasonab le p retex t , you should give to the world and to posterity a public proof ' that in your past conduct you have neither been actuated by passion nor ambition, that your declarations have been sincere , and that you do not desire to expose the kingdom to the danger which must result from the prolongation of a contest between lea provinces, nor to open the way fur foreign Poweri to attack out independence in the midst of our divisions, which they have always respected when they saw us united. " Consider that there is no time to lose—we are on the brisk of a precipice. Already citizens are armed against citizen,— already the Commanders of the troops who are subject to you threaten our cities and our towns with the loss of their rights and privileges, for their opposition to their views : they menace the officers and soldiers who refuse to join them with the trial ond the punishment of traitors! One step farther, and we are plunged into civil war—bathed in the blood of our brothers and threatened with a series of Revolutions which can terminate only in the dissolution of the Monarchy. " To you, and to you alone, will be attributable such mighty calamities; on your head will press to the most remote posterity such an enormous responsibility, if you listen not now to the voice which is addressed to you by the Governors of the King dom. They have no other ambition but that of saving the nation and securing the public felicity; nor will they refusf to receive any representations which may lead to such an important, such a desirable object : and they hope that Paovearalca, seconding their effort, will hasten the happy day—a day most earnestly prayed for by them—in which they may be able to surrender into the Royal hands of our Sovereign the sacred and important deposit with which they are entrusted.

The Lima Gazettes and private letters that we have received to the end of May last, s i .eak in very fa vourable terms of the progress now rn.king in the mining speculations carried on there, with the it** sistance of individuals from this country. A leer years ago, a cargo of steam-engines and other ma chinery was shipped for Lima, for the purpwe of draining the mines of Pasco, in the neighbourhood of that City. This great work, it appears, is now nearly accomplished, and chiefly through the inde fatigable perseverance and public spirit of Doa PEDRO ABADIA and his friends, who have since pa tronised another undertaking, of equal, and, per haps, greater importance, that of smelting the hard ores, whose composition resists the process of amal gamation, and which, on this account, have, till now, been considered useless, the art of smelting having been hitherto unknown in that country. On the sub ject of these undertakings, the Lima Gazette of the 25th November expresses itself as follows : " Establishments of this kind will doubth ss repair the innu merable evils which the Revolution has produced in all parts; and that of Pasco would have already accomplished this, if the difficulties attendant upon an undertaking so new to this country, and the death of some of the foreigners employed in it, had not retarded its prorrets. In spite of these obstacles, the under taking has been extremely beneficial to the kingdom, since all the metal produced in the last and present year has been ex tracted from mines that have been drained by the two engines of Santa Rosa and Yanacancha. Now that, through the skill and activity of the new English engineer, not only is the draining of these two points continued without interruption, but the cone effect is about to take place in those of Caya and the rich Yauri cocha, we cannot but think that the original expectations , which had begun to abate, will now be very soon realised. (hi a hp, cure occasion we s hall, perhaps, give some detail of the present state of this concern, whose progress has been so favourable in these last months, that there is now a certainty of the Company's being shortly reimbursed the enormous expenses they have sus tained in carrying it into effect. " In addition to the great advantages expected from the Caro de Pasco, we have the satisfaction of knowing that this is not the only point in which at the present day the mines are rendered more productive than formerly. The Smelting Establishment at Pauli, projected by Mr. Robert Page, and adopted by Messrs. Abadia and Arismendi, promises equal, if not superior results to those of the steam-engines, however great they may be. This new method of extracting the silver, if at all times it would have been useful to the kingdom, has now become absolutely ne cessary, from the interruption attending the ancient method, is the 'earthy of mules, quicksilver, and salt. From the advantage it possesses cf rendering useful those ores which before were considered of no value, it may be foreseen that, in a short time, industry and prosperity will revive in the many mines which ars now abandoned, on account of their owners not having been able to avail themselves of the riches they possess." The last Lima letters contain some details which do not appear in the Gazettes ; they mention that in the steam-engine concern the improvement had been so great, that the contribution to the Company, which in the month of July of last year did not exceed 200 cargoes or mule loads of ore per month, had in creased in the month of November following to up wards of 1500 cargoes weekly; and from the smelt ing works it appears that the first plate of silver was received at Lima in the month of February last, and that its arrival had given the greatest satisfaction to the Government and the Public, in whom its success had excited hopes of very extensive future advan tages. Among these are some which were not ant:- cipated, even by the authors of it, in the great saving of human life—that it will prevent many hundreds (perhaps thousands) of the Indians perishing yearly from the effluvia emitted by some of these ores, in the miserable and inefficient attempts to render them available. Extract of a letter from St. Thomas's, dated the Ist of August: — " Business remains in the same de pressed state as when I wrote you last, and but little prospect of its revival: a great number of vessels are here from the United States, and the stock of flour en hand is very considerable. His Majesty's frigate Tat- DUNE arrived here a few days ago, with a fleet of Spanish merchantmen under convoy, from Laguira. The Patriot cruizers continue their depredations in this quarter, and have become very troublesome and insulting, particularly to the American flag : several vessels from America have been plundered by them: —there is no protection for our commerce :—many of the cruizers have no commissions, and the crews made up of all nations, an object which ought to sti mulate Government to send some armed vessels here, as well as to suppress the Slave Trade, which is car ried on to a great extent, and appears to bid de ' fiance to all vigilance. Lumber, naval stores, India goods, 8• rx are very abundant, and no Wes for them.
