With Biographical Notices, and Critical Remarks. 1 with the cavalry regiment N0..10, Marched for Braga, in consequencrof intelligence, he(Priego) had sreceived, that the armed peasantry had upturned at Braga the R-gency esthority, as they. had already chine in Chaves. We have received the capitulation granted by Viscount MOllte:ftif to Colonel Valdez, the Constitutional Go. vernor of the Fortress of Braganza. It is, in sub- stance, what we have already mentioned, except that the Marquis submits it for approbation, to the Regency appointed in the name- of King Miguel the Fifth.— The number of soldiers in the fortress were -500, all of whom have voluntarily joined Montealegre's forces, who, on the 28th, advanced to Chaves. This is a summary,, authentic statement of what has taken place in Portugal. up to the present date. The Parisian Jour nals recestoed per this day's mail, give their accounts -of how the horizon of Lisbon looked on the 11th, and that of Madrid. on the 16th ultimo; but any person unatquainted, as both Editors and Correspondents cer tainly were,- with what was then in contemplation, instead of getting from such a COI-respondence parti cubes* du Misdrid at dc. isbotise," any kind of clue to whet *as ibortly after to excite so much surprise oak - ftrioy4see to those who would force things down people's throals, might, with snore hopes of .ssiccess, elides's.** to make their wiy Vy'tbemselves through the Cretan labyrinth. • - • of the said Alvaro should also undergo en alteisirion. In the treaty recognising the independence of than is Em ' pare of Brazil, it stipoiated that the produce of that Empire should only pay an import duty of 15 per cent. ad valorem. Thus there has been created an inequality as to the duties on rice imported from Asia and'the African provinces, compared with those ott Bradttian rice. The Committee were therefore of opinion, thatithe duties on Asiatic and African rice should be reduced to 15 per cent. A law project to this effect, presented by the Committee, was after some discussion adopted. In the Chamber o' Peers, on the sth instant, the Pre sident read a letter from the President of the Chamber of Deputies, transmitting the resolution-of that Cham ber relative to the suspension of the HaLetts Carpus; A Committee was appointed to report on that resolution. Another Committee was appointed to report ow the resolution of the Chamber of Deputies relative to the motion of the Minister at War on treasonable-offences. In the Chamber of Deputies on the 6th inst. Senhor Braklasni submitted a proposition, that esplatietlons should be called for from the Way Department. This propositios was amply dismissad, and carried in , the affirmativo. Oa the suggestion of the President, .the •questions to be put . were referred to the consideration of the War Committee, to which Senhor ' Braklami was added. As-in the:course of discussion on this proptosi-• tion, observations were made 'on the necessity 'ot ap pointing a War Minister and a General in Chief of the Army,. it was resolved, that the two Ministers of State who had been present during the debate, should coin. municate to her Royal Highness the Princess Regent, the opinion of the Chamber on those subjects. • It appears that some pains have been taken by the Government to obtain the names of the Priests - who are wandering over the country, and to ascertain what they are about. We find by an official article from the office of the Minister for Ecclesiastical Affairs and- Justice, that the return made by the General of the Congrega tion, of the third order of the Penitentia, relative to the number of Monks , who were generally out of the con vents under his jurisdiction, had not been found satis factory. The General's return stated, that there were out of their couvents by licence, only three on account of incurable diseases, one oho was officio ling in a Church under the Archbishop of Evora, three for whom their physicians had prescribed the air of their native provinces, five 'who live will Attic relations, in consequence of the extreme distress of their parents, and two more who are outof their cloisters, in pursuance of Royal warrants. In consequence of this imperfect return, the General is required to state •air., cumstantially the names of the absent Monks, the places where, and the relations with whom they reside.; the Convents to which they belong, and the Church in •which one of. them is officiating, with the date of the licence, or order, in virtue of which they ate- absent..... It is observed, that though these things might 'noi-iii‘re been particularly specified in the orcWr for- the'rettrin, " it was easy to see that the object of the inquiry- leas to put the Government in possession, not entry OPihe number of the Monks living out of their cloister but of their authority for such absence, and the 'Or 'they were making of it."

We mentioned on the 4th inst. that Claudio, who, : truth 100 cavalry of the regiment Na. 11, 500 infantry of No. 10, and 150 chasseurs No. 3, was advancing to succour the fortress of Braganca, had been attacked at Binay; repulsed, and driven back by the armed inhabitants, Or guetrillas, obliging him to retreat to .wards Beira. The advice. received subsequently inform os, that not being able to effect his retreat , that direction,. he proceeded towards Chaves, with e view of co-operating with the Captain - General of ili e Province, who was then there, but that he had .been 'immediately pursued by the Miguelite forces from Bra. gauza, which had been reinforced by the defection of pert, of the cavalry of Claudius,, who, in his flight. had to abandon baggage, arms, and ammunition: - ;prom Alentejo the accounts are, that Geneve' Magness' had • .ceeded to Upper and Lower Heirs, for the purpose lof acting in combination with the refugees from Ga ileia, Castile,. and the ,division of reserve commanded be General. Telles Jnrdan, who having entered by Ciudad Rodrigo, had gone to Aldea del Obispo, in consequence of advice sent him, that Almeida was ready to admit Royalist troops. He was accompanied b 1 the emigrant late Governor of that strong place, and by the Othcers of the Militia Regiments of Fran- Soso, Piael, Girarclo, and.by those of eight other Regi ments. wholad ;ill declared for Don Miguel. The lialion Gaue le:. which we have seen up to the 25th ult. are quite silent upon the movements of the' refugees,. from a dread, no doubt, of the alarm being given. The letters received farm that capital mention. howe.xer,that,numbers of the Peers had absented thew: , from the Upper House, under the pretext o f sudden indisposition ; and that many militaires, both TS and soldiers, had deserted the Regency banners AM to thuseof Don Miguel.

We are in hourly expectation of the Silveiras (the Marquis of Chaves and his uncles) appearing at the Pass of Amarante, with about %MO, regular troops and armed peasantry, led on with the promise of sacking that city, as they have done Bra: genic The troops are so few that they tan only occupy, the fortresses, excepting a few battalions of the militia, and these are not much to bedependedupon. Silveira's I proclainatiou is ridiculed by the partisans of all parties, and he would not hire ventured on. such a desperate game without the promise of a safe refuge in the arms of Ferdinand. He is plentifully supplied with money from. somewhere.snd has bribed the soldiers who hate joined him at an exorbitant rate. It is probable that the whole funds of the Apostolic Junta are placed at his disposal. With this, and the saint-like reputation he holds among th • poor superstitious wretches of Tras-os-Montes, he will do a great deal of mischief; and should he arrive at Amaral to before any reinforcements arrive, we shall all be considering about our personal safety. For my own part, I have no great wish to encounter a horde of hall civilized wretches, Who, excited by a love of religion, and a rove . of plunder, are coming with the 'rebels, to satisfy both these holy wishes among the Constitution alists.of Oporto fi hope, however, they will be attacked before they reach Amirante. This city is as quiet as if there Was nothing the matter. Although the conspiracy was known nearly two months since, and the most urgent petitions were sent to the Governtnebt for Such measures and means as the exigency required, no notice was taken .of them. There was some traitor in she Ministry, who had the power of coon tes acting the representations that the Gores nor: of ci y and provinie were daily • 'tusking, until at last the heads of the conspiracy were requested to pre sent themehes in Lisbon, which was the signal for their running to Spain, and for the advance of the rebels from Castile, where they had been recognized. lam inform. ed that while some troops entered Bragania, Antonio de Silveira was at the town of Verity (in Galicia); with a force ready to fall on Chaves, in case the troops had left it to cover Braganza. Now this man, who is the richest of all the family,. need not have implicated himself in a rebellion, having been at Rome and in Spain during the last changes. The estates of the otheri having been confiscated, the family is absolutely ruined, unless they should succeed. This circumstance, and other similar ones, convince•sne that this is a movement of more con sequence than it appears ; that the Court of Spain, and perhaps Fiance, is at the bottom of it. Should England assist Portugal with troops, a war would perhaps ensue, that would end in the partition of Spain, anevent I should rejoice to see. Such a nuisance as the Court of Ferdivand ought not to be tolerated. .The private letters from Lisbon represent business as completely' suspended, in consequence of, the military movements in the country, and speak of the intense anxiety' that eXists as to the result of thine movements, and the arrival of the British troops. A declaratio,issued by Dom Miguel, against the use made of his name ay the Portuguese, insurgents, which was lately mentioned in the agerseine Zeitung as a' matter of surmise, is spoken of in the A'uremberg Con respoudsat, receiied yesterday morning to the 14th inst. From the report of the proceedings of the Chamber Of Depot* on the 7th inst. we find that notice was on that day given of the resignation of Some of the - Ministers. Tife' first cbmmunication is. in the folldwing , terms: . Senhor Secretary Costa read a letter kom Senhor Barrio do .11obral, Deputy, in which he informed the Chamber that tier Royal Highness had, in the name of f the King. been isleased to accept the resignation of his ofSE.e of Minister of Finante, and that it being necessary to put in order the papers appertaining to.his depart /0014i he could net on that account attend the Chamber for two or three days. . Afterwards, the same Secretary announced the receipt of letters from Senhor Vrancisco de Almeida, and Sen hot. Francisco blame' Trigoso de Aragao Moraro, Mi nister of Foreign Affairs, stating in nearly the same terms, that the Princess Regent had accepted their resignations. The Committee appointed to examine the pi ()posi tion of theliovernment of the 20th of last month, in• chiding the, deliberation of the Council of FinanCe, on the petitions of certain merchants praying for a reduc tion of import duties on rice imported from Asia, repotted, that rice as an article of tirst necessity, was Always exempt' from duties, hut that imperious mo- 1 dies had induCed the • Governor• ot to impose those' t now.paid by, the AlVaris of the.l4ili of October; 1823.

The Times of London, and the French liberal papers, press for a solution of the affairs of Spin. - They' de mand the overthrow of the Monastic p,r er, which they have hitherto called the Apostolic party, and which the Minister for Foreign Affairs in Por.ugal stigmatizes - as an execrable league, in calling for its immediate destruc tion. He proceeds even so far as to wish to interest all the civilized Governments of Europe in that canoe. Let us investigate these coml.laints, which are not with out importance. When the reformation of the 16th century threw down the gauntlet to Catholicism, leagues of Huguenots were formed in Germany and France, and the forma tion of them was deemed perfectly legitimate by those who concocted them. But as. soon as the Catholic, as sembled in similar confederations; cries of indignation and horror were raised on all sides against those who pretended to defend the religion of their ancestors.— The world resounded with accusations against the Je suits, at the very moment when the Independents under the influence of Cromwell were busy in demolishing the throne of the Stunts. Revolution, organized in Masonic Clubs, in political affiliations, in Lodges of Carbonari, and- of Comma neros, is at this moment pursuing she sameline.of con duct which the Huguenots pursued long since. The least sign of life which ancient Catholicism displays, is onsidered a crime. As in former titres, it is in the name of civilization, of intelligence, that men call for • the destruction of their adversaries: • This is the masinev , • in which the question presents itself in a aesietal rant of view. There are other sentiments which are impounded with no less skill. Thus it is that several writers wish to make the people ashamed of any remains of affection they may entertain for their ancient belief, in represent.... ing such devotion as a crime against pittlotisin and honour. "Monks," they say, "take up arms and fight. in the ranks of the army." But Lnrd Wellington did not think himself dishonoured in accepting thetil lately as auxiliaries. Have we forgot the enthusiiMia Stish which anti•Bonapartist Europe saluted those metnifthe frock, who exposed themselves intrepidly' to the greate:t dangers? The Times was then so 'far from insulting them, that it considered them as the most useful allies of Great Britaia-on the Continent. - r . • • - 11 is not right tn . -believe; that theshame labial seizes A great number of men when we talk to them of the
