TUESDAY, JUNE 28. obliffed to lay at the feet of your Majesty this humble supplication, Lecause from so many wit nesses which you have given us of your paternal be nevolence, we have in you a filial confidence.—May your Majesty watch well the frightful destiny which awaits generous Poland, if fortune does not grant it the success which the justice of her cause me rits; that Poland towards which the House of Your Majesty and our country has contracted such great debts, and which, struggling with an incom parable bravery, but with disp r op or ti onec l forces, car not perhaps support it but in making the last sacrifices. Thinking also that the North threatens , 1S with danger, we hazard humbly to supplicate your Majesty to watch well, whilst there is yet time, to listen at the approaching diet to your faithful people, upon the destiny of Poland, and to :hinge for the present the recent ordonnance which prohibits the exportation of arms, of am munition and scythes, and annihilates the little commerce which we had left by preceding edicts." We announced some time since, that the Com mittees of Hungary, in a remonstrance addressed to the Emperor of Austria, claimed a powerful and prompt intervention in favour of Poland, demanding provisionally the abolition of the ordonnance which prohibited the exportation of arms, scythes, and materials of war. We give this day, from the Correspondent de Hanibourg, that document, which is of the highest importance, and upon which we call serious attention. There will be no need here to insist upon the generous sentiments, upon the salutary lessons, and the high political mo t a lity, which is contained in the remonstrance of the Hungarian Committees, for these thoughts are in the heart of every Frenchman, and the same coun- I cils would be given from all points of France.— But when we see the aristocratic corporations of an absolute monarchy trace thus energetically to their sovereign the time which the dignity and the interest of the country command him to take, and then, , casting our eyes round upon regenerated France, we think that, of our constituted bodies, not one of them has held, in regard to Poland, language suit able to our position. We feel humiliated by accom modations which, certainly, are not to the honour of our country. The Hungarian nobles protest against the slavery of Poland ; and a French Chamber of Deputies has heard, without reproving him, a mi nister coldly predict at the Tribune, the ruin of that heroic nation. It is, then, Hungary, which gives us lessons of honour and generosity ! May they at least not be lost for the electors !—Le National. FRONTIERS OF ITALY, JUNE 15.—A1l those ' oho now pass through the Tyrol and Upper Italy will have an opportunity to convince themselves of the great military preparations of Austria. It is affirmed that these preparations are more formi dable than they were in 1805 and 1809. If we may believe the reports that are spread in the Tyrol, 70,000 men are assembled on the frontiers of Switzerland, and 30,000 in the interior of Ty rol. The public think that war is at hand. They forget that Austria is as interested as any other state in the maintenance of peace. MILAN, JUN E 18.—Persecutions and confisca tions augment more and more in the States of Modena and Parma. The accused are arrested secretly, imprisoned, and tried without being beard. Several patriots have thus disappeared since some weeks, and their relations and friends know not what has become of them; and, as the Duke of Modena is capable of committing all sorts of crimes, it is feared that His Royal Highness, with the authorisation of the Jesuits, slaughters secretly the enemies of their religion and legiti macy. The Austrians find it difficult to evacuate the states of the Pope ; on the 18th of June, they were still in the Legations, and did not appear ready to leave. A corps of 16,000 infantry, and 4,000 cavalry, left the environs of Milan for the frontiers of Switzerland ; parks of artillery are ready to part for the same direction. TO OUR READERS. SPIRIT Of THE — LUIINALIII.-- --- 61.11" -- Readers will be .A.tre, that during the present important Parliamentary dis eussions, combined with the momentous events on the Con tinent, to which we devote a great portion of our paper, as In‘olving the imminent questions of peace or war, we are oceasionslly compelled to omit the Spirit of the Morning Papers. For the last two days there have appeared in the Blorning Papers no original remarks which render this ne emit} any sacrifice to our Readers. A Cabinet Council assembled to-day at twelve o'clock, at Lord GREY'S house in Downing street. It w•as attended by all the Cabinet Ministers, and by Prince LEOPOLD. The Cabinet sat in deliberation for a considerable time. The French Estafette of this morning has brought us our usual supply of Paris papers, and original correspondence. From these we have made selections of such passages as we consider of interest ; and among them we recommend our readers to peruse the opinions of the Courrier Francais on the Belgian question ; the accounts of continued persecutions in Italy ; and the cu rious appeal of the Hungarian Provinces to the Emperor of AUSTRIA, in favour of the brave Poles. The liberality of sentiment, and sound rolicy, which distinguish this document, put to Anew those States of Europe which make higher pretensions ; and the remarks of the National, inch follow the Hungarian address, will be found v..e1l a orthy the attention of our readers. The cause assigned in the French papers, which has induced the French Government to call to gether the Chambers earlier than intended, is in con ,equence of the anniversary of the last revolution, which the disaffected were preparing to celebrate in a uninner that might produce tumult and disorder. The Legislature, therefore, has been convoked pre viously to the 26th—the anniversary—to assure tranquillity; and should the present laws be in efficient for that oliect, to enact new ones more Aequate. Accounts from Warsaw state, that the advan tages gained by the Army of General GIELG UD er that of SAcriEw are confirmed. Two thousand prisoners, with eight pieces of cannon, have been taken; GIELG D was pursuing the enemy on the road to Grodno. The Polish Minister of War has given nodes, that there is already a sufficient num- 1 ber of physicians for the army and military hos pitals in Warsaw ; and that, after the 30th June, no expences will be allowed for the journey of those who may arrive. The Mexican Packet has arrived, which sailed from Vera Cruz on the 6th of May ; and has brought 250,000 dollars on merchant's account. The next packet is expected to bring a larger amount. From Mexico we learn that the south and other parts of the Republic were in tranquillity. The admirable exposition which we yesterday presented to our readers in our last page, puts them in full possession of the causes of the 13elgic Revolution, and justifies the revolt to all reasonable men. It is a chapter in this history which will direct all subsequent reasonings, and confer additional interest on the following Letter of Prince LEoPoLu, addressed, on Sunday after noon, to the Belgic Deputies, who, on receiving. it, instantly left London for Brussels : THE BELGIAN CROWN. ACCEPTANCE OE PRINCE LEOPOLD. " Gentlemen—l entertain r. deep sense of the " v,ish of m Lich the Belgic Congress has made " you the interpreters. " 1 his mark of coofidence is to me the more " flattering, thai it was not sought for on my pint. " Human destinies do not present a more :noble " and more useful task than that of being• called to " maintain the independence and consolidate the " liberties of a nation. A mission of such high " importance can alone determine me to abandon " an igdependent position, and to separate mytelf " from a country to which I have been attached by tics and recollections the most sacred, and which " has given me so many proofs of its benevolence " and sympathy. " I accept, then, Gentlemen, the offer which you " make me, it king understood that it will belong " to the Congress of the national representatives, " to adopt the measures which can alone constitute " the new state, and thus secure for it the recog " nition of the European Powers. It is thus that " the Congress will give me the power of devoting " myself entirely to Belgium, and of consecrating " to its well-being and j rospeiity the relations " which I have formed in countries whose friend " ship is essential to it, and to secure it, as much " as depends upon my co-opeiation, an independent " and happy exis!ence. "June 26, 1831." Thus PRINCE LEOPOLD accepts the BELGIC TII EON E but under a proviso; he does not ac cept it as a champion or partisan of Belgic rights, not as a knight-errant to wised Belgic interests, and by his own prowess assist in laying the foundation of a monarchy; but he says, " it being understood that it will belong to the Con gress of National Representatives to adopt the measures, which can alone constitute the new state, and thus secure for it the recognition of the European Powers." This is as much as to say, I will come as soon 1 , as you have extricated yourselves from a labyrinth of diplomatic intrigue, adjusted the jealousies of the powers, and prevailed on your late inflexible Sovereign to yield certain territories essential to vour welfare, of which he has military occupation. Now we consider this as putting the Belgians in the wrong, and adding greatly to their perplexities— they have made one election, and while that is re corded they cannot make another ; and yet he who is elected says, 1 accept, but you must do things which, if the Belgians could do with a constituted head, they cannot do in an unsettled state ; or if they can, it must be done at a great disadvantage. If the Holy Alliance have contrived this per plexity, they have succeeded to a miracle. The Belgians must go to war for a king who is not present, and who exhibits such cold attachment to their interests. To assure the loyalty of a People, a Sovereign and they, should be ono for better for worse. It would damp the ardour and confidence of any lover to be told by his mistress—" You have difficulties to surmount, get over them, and I will be your's." " But I want," he would say, " one who would divide my cares, and join me for better for worse." " No," says the lady, " I can join you only for the better." Under such circum stances it might be more easy for a lover to shake off such a mistress, than for a nation to disentangle itself in the presence of so ninny enemies. The results prove, however, that the original plan was bad—the hawking of a crown is a novelty in human affairs—and the electing of any but candidates for better for ttorse is absurd and un wise. We confess we bad imagined that there had been a previous unconditional acceptance, for it was so understood in Belgium. But we are told that a mediatory power tenders its good offices with Kixo WlLLiam ;—and what will the world think when we state, that this new friend to freed Belgium is Austria! An Austrian Diplomatist is gone to Holland to prevail on King WILLIAM to give up the left bank of the Scheldt, and Luxemburgh and Limburg! May he succeed, but if he succeed, it will be one of the memorabilia of the age. The statement, which we published yesterday, proves that if in October, King William had not contrived to arrest the movements of the Belgians, they :could not only have been in immediate pos session of all they now demand, and of Brabant, but probably they would have revolutionized Holland itself ; for the Congress of Vienna, had put its iron finger on Holland as well as other countries. To avoid bloodshed the Belgic philosophers confided in the justice of the five powers, and we see the result. More blood must probably be now shed in conquering what is in bitter preparation, and in the agitation of other questions which may even lead to general war. We have never ceased to think that Belgium has been compromised, ever since the councils of M. DE POTTER lost their just weight; for such is the folly of Courts, that there seems in general to be no golden mean between Absolutism and an Ame rican republic. A higher spirit of chivalry in the chosen Prince might have qualified those difficulties; but man does not form his own character. In the House of Lords last night, an order was made for laying on the table papers relative to the ctioLERA :%tottuus : a:id it is gratifying to see .Lord WiNcit LsE.t bringing in a bill for employ. ment and provisiun for the labouring poor. As soon as printed we will lay it before our Readers. It may not be all that is wanted, and it may be only intended to palliate and reconcile, but every step is good ; and whatever his Lordship may propose, he cannot make their condition worse. In the House of Commons •rut: SPEAK ER gave notice that members were exempt from service ou Juries during the sittings of the House. Mr. EIVNT presented various petitions against Ty th es, the Corn Laws, ae East India Mono poly, &c. &c. In answer to enquiries relative to Newfoundland, Lord How ICK stated that it was not intended to establish a local legislature, nor to support the claimed right to fish on the French banks ; on which Mr. ROBINSON gave notice of an in tention to move an address to the Crown on those subjects. Mr. DUNDAS stimulated the LORD ADVOCATE to prosecute the Election Rioters in Scotland ; but it appeared, by the answer, that the Law Authori ties had not been lake-warm. A discussion arose about the Loyalty of the Scotch People; and Mr. Ross stated that 99 in every 100 in Forfarsbire were in favour of Reform ; and Mr. Dixon, that 199,000 out of '200,000 in Glasgow held the same opinions. In the COMMITTEE of SUPPLY, a discussion arose about the unwise prosecution of Mr. O'CoN • NELL, which the anti-reformers vehemently abett ed ; but it appeared to have died with what Mr. O'CONNELL called the Algerine act. In answer to a question of Capt. Boldero, Sir J. GRAHAM stated that the fleet at Spithead was assembled merely for exercise and evolution, and for no hostile or political purpose. Lord HowicK stated that Government does not intend to take any step relative to Colonial Sla very, in this Session. The Ordnance and Navy Estimates were passed with few observations, except from some of the anti-Reformers, but on no points of public in terest. On moving the Army Estimutes, Mr. O'Cos - NELL objected to 189,8031. for the Irish yeomanry, whose bad and factious spirit was notorious, and had been so recently proved. Mr. STAN LEY admitted their party feelings, but defended their establishment. Lord AvrtisnP and Col. PER CI VAL defended the yeomanry, and Mr. CONOLLY and Mr. LEvROY extolled them. Mr. HUNT im peached both their uses and their courage, and enumerated instances of their misconduct in Eng land. Several Anti-reformers, and Sir M. W. RIDLEY, enlarged on their services; and, in one, Mr. O'Cox N um. withdrew his opposition. The other votes were then passed. The New Strand-bridge -street Bill was read a second time. Mr. STANLEY announced a Bill for regulating the possession of nrms in Ireland. And Lord ALTIIORP brought in Bills for pro hibiting the growth of tobacco in Ireland, and for reducing the salary of the Master of the Mint. THE ARMY. Major-General Lord FITZROY SOMERSET, K.C.B. Military Secretary to the General Com manding-in-Chief, went through his List to-day, at his Office, in the Horse-Guards. LORD HILL'S LEVEE. General Lord HILL, G.C.B. and G.C.H. Com manding-in-Chief, will hold a Levee on Thursday next, at his Lordship's Office, in the Horse- Guards. ROYAL EXCHANGE, ONE O'CLOCK. Consols, which left off yesterday at 831, opened at the same price, and went up to 83i for Account, since which have receded to 82j 83, at which price they are at preseut.—ln foreign market no thing doing. TWO O'CLOCK. Consols continue at present at 82f 83 for the Account. In the Foreign market, little or nothing doing. _ ___ There aro in Warsaw physicians from all parts of Europe, as well as front Asia, Africa, and America. Accounts are received that 100,000 dollars are going to be sent to England, saved from the Thetis frigate, in the Brazil . We are assured that every thing with reference to Belgium is arranged, upon Ce most satis factory terms to all parties, in spite of the quibbles that are attempted in certain quarters, upon Prince LEOPOLD, and we can assure our Readers that the Belgian deputies, previous to their departure, have settled all difficulties ; and as they have in no way' outstripped their powers,—the ratification of the Treaty with the Prince, is a matter of course, and will not be withheld : in fact, the influential members of the Congress are more eager for the consent of Prince Leopold than any of the other parties concerned. COI'RT CIRCULAR. The Dtile of Sussex and the Duchess of Cam bridge, accompanied by Prince George AM Princess Augusta of Cambridge, visited the Princess Augusta oo Sunday, at her - 'residence in the Palace at St. James's. A Conference on the Affairs of Belgium was held by the Ministers of the Great Powers yesterday after. noon : the Austrian and French Embassadots, Count Ma tousbevitz, the Russian Envoy Extraordinary, the Baron de Weuenburg, the Austrian Envoy Extraordinary, Viscount Palmerston, &c. attended the meeting, which was held at the Foreign Office. Some of the Directors of the A ustralian Company had an interview with Viscount Goderich yesterday at the Colonial Office. The Brazilian Charge d'Affaires Lad an audience of the ex-Emperot Don Pato yectertlrty. ELECTION OF SIIERIFI•'S. Yesterday, at the close of the poll, the numbers were— Cowan Pirie Scales 233 The contest, it appears, notwithwanding the large majority upon the part of Alderman Cowan and Mr. Pirie, is likcly to continue up to the last hour. COBURG THEATRE. Mr. Kean appeared at this Theatre last night in the character of fticAard 111. for the benefit of Mr. Davidge, the manager. The appearance of such an actor at this theatre circa, as might have been expected, a very crowded audience. The house was filled in every pan, and in the boxes and the pit the company was extremely respectable. The " gods;' however, were tt.e most noisy we ever heard. After the tragedy was concluded there was a general call for Mr. Kean, who obeyed it after a short delay, and he was hailed with the most enthusiastic applause. He attempted to address the audience, but some well-intentioned, though most mistaken, per.•ons Inv up such deafening cries of " Order" and `• Silence," that he was unable to make himself heard, and he retired apparently very much amused at the wisdom of those who endeavoured to obtain silence by bawling and making as much noise as they could. Mr. Elliott, who announced the performances for the week, told the audience that, in consequence of the approbation with which they had been pleased to receive Mr. Kean that night, he was desired to inform them that Mr. Kean would a prear there in the character of Mac& tis on Wednesday, and n the character of Othello on Friday, next. ARRIVAL OF THE DUCHESS HELENA, AT DEVON. _ _ _ Monday last the Russian line-of-battle ship Culm, Capt. Lazaroff, and the Lionelle corvette, Captain Count Heyden (son of Admiral Heyden, of the Imperial service, who cons. mended the fleet in the Mediterranean), came to anchor in the Sound, and saluted the British flag, which was returned by our Admiral, and a salute was also fired from the citadel. The ships were immediately placed under quarantine. On board the Cohn was her Imperial Highness the Duchess Helena, who is in delicate health, and is about to reside at Sidmouth, in this county, for several months, the sa lubrious air of Devon having been strongly recoil). mended by her Imperial Highness's medical attendants. With her Highness are the Countess Nesse!rode. Madame de Tulstuy, Prince Pagarin, Dr. Ilurder. and Monsieur de Lobstor, first Secretary ; the retinue coupirts of 40 attend ants. Her Highness is accompanied by her three children. As soon as the arrival of the fleet was known, J. Hawker, Req. the Russian consul at this port, proceeded as near to the ship as the quarantine regulations would admit, and het Imperial Highness was pleased to grant him an interview. From the necessary restrictions imposed, in consequence of the cholera morbus raging in Russia and the ports In the Baltic, the authorities here could not grant pratique until they had received directions from London. On Thursday evening the order for granting pratique was received, and on Friday morning her Imperial Highnes and sui.e landed at the dockyard, being rccived by the Admiral, Commis sioner Ross, Sir J. Cameron, and J. Hawker, Esq. the Russian Consul, a guard of honour from the Royal Ma rines being in attendance, and the Admiral's ship and bat. terics at Mount Wise saluting. After remaining in the dockyard a short time, her Highness proceeded through Plymouth for Sidmouth. There were eight carriages. At Sidmouth all is on the qui vire, from the arrangement made for the reception of the Grand Duchess ; triumphal arches, covered with laurels, are thrown across the streets in se veral places, and also at the entrance of Fort-field, where the Duchess intends residing during her stay. The ship Culm, an Imperial line-of-battle ship, mounting seventy. four guns, was boarded by Thos. Andrew, pilot, 12 leagues off, and be conducted her so close to the Fuldystoae as to be enabled to speak with the men on the lighthouse. Her imperial Highness and ladies, being on deck, were highly gratified with the appearance of this wonder of the British coast. The Cohn has 520 individuals on board, consisting of crew, passengers, &e., not one of whom are in the sick list; and the crew of the Corvette are equally healthy. The Russian service makes no distinction between the army and navy ; the crews of all their ships serve indiscriminately with the army, on shore and on board, and the officers of the two ships, now in the Sound, have the number of the regiments to which they bclung on their epaulettes. In the Swedish service a similar regulation exists. Several years since two Swedish corvettes lay here, the officers of which, belonging to the heavy dragoons, were daily seen walking the decks in boots and spurs. During the last war with France, the crew of one of our ships, in the North Seas strongly recommended a war with Sweden to make, as Jack styled therc, these Horse Marines douse their spurs. MARSHAL DIEBITSCH and GENERAL TOLL. From a letter dated the " llusiaii head-quarters, Juno 11," written in a very pompous style, we ex tract the following particulars respecting the late Russian commander and his successor : "We had been about a week in Pultusk. Since the battle of Ostrolenka the weather had been dreadful. Not a day passed without rain, the atmosphere was full of vapour, and the clouds seemed to press dose upon the earth. The Field- Marshal, who I;ad hitherto enjoyed perfect health, com plained on the 9th. in the evening, of heaviness and lassitude, but bleeding relieved him. Early in the morning of the 10th be was very well, but by noon he was a corpse. A stroke of apoplexy terminated his life. The impression whikh the news of this event produced on the army is hide scribabk. 4, Until the Emperor's decision be known, Otneral Count Toll, the chief of the staff, has taken the command of the atmy. Amidst universal regret, this affords us consolation. Having been the cot.fident of the deceased Field.lllarrhal in all his views aid plats, he will be able to bring to a success ful termination what his friend had commenced. But whit is more impottant, he is himself a groat commander, and has only wanted rpportunities, not talents, to give proofs of his ability to the world. He is a pupil of Suwarrow and Kutusow, and distirguished himself in ail the campaigns against Napoleo.,. When Cuunt Dyibitsch obtained the command of the army against the Turks, he took Count Toll with him, and since then he h as c o nstant l y b een t h e chief of the .eld 31arshol'a staff. The most perfect bar- mony always subsisted between them, and death only could tear asunder the Lands of their friendship." THE LATF. FIELD-111A lt3ll A L COUNT VON D ENITSCII SABA LICA SK I. This celebrated chieftain, who descended from an ancient and noble Silesian family, at the period of his death was ex actly 46 years years of age, having been born May 13, 1785. In his earliest years, it is said, the Fi.4d- Marshal had so singularly retentive a me mory, that when he had attained his fourth year he was capable of resolving arithmetical gaestions with greafer readiness than most adults. He commenced his military career in the Prussian ser vice, bit, on his father accepting a Major-General ship on the Staff of the Emperor Paul, the King of Prussia allowed him to resign his commiion as a Second Lieutenant in the Prussian army. In the conflict at Austerlitz he was wounded by a spent ball, which lodged in the palm of Lis hand. The Marshal also distinguished himself in the actions of Eylau and Friedland, and in the celebrated cam paign of 1812. At Dresden lie received a severe contusion, and had two horses killed under him. The Marshal was married in 1815 to Jane, Ba roness de roman, niece to the lady of Prince Barclay de Tully. Of this marriage there was no issue, and at his death he was in the first rear of his widowhood. NA l'A 1 INTELLIOEXCF. DOVER, .1c NE 27.

Sir,,--Four Bath readers are much greti!3cd at the energy with which you demand from Ninis ters, inquiry and redress, or pr,:vion:= altentieti and soothing explanation, if redre-s prac ticable, before appeals are made to brute the sword of the law, or the executio;:er. This coarse, as you properly remark. is the essence of public justice; and there must be some mistake, or some bad passions interposing between the Cs. binet and the people, or the several special com missions would hare been CoM M ISS io.Ns or e ntY,nnd these would have preceded commissions for transpottation and extermination. I confess, however, that we have been a little alarmed by the late speech of Earl Grey in reply to the Earl of Winchilsea. The latter. is cordance with his known principles, advise.; the strong hand of power to be directed against all dis content and ultra opinions wherever displayed ; an.; the Minister, as though it weir to assure the sap Fort of Lord Winchilsea, according to the news papers, promises to obey his suggestions, quotes cases of past prosecution as meritorious, and state, for the satisfaction of all such as prefer a strong to a reasonable display of power, that as often a! any one is found offending, and a prospect of success appears, the vigour of the law shall be employetl. New, Sir, this is alarming., not because I would not trust the principles of Lord Grey, or of Lord Winchilsea, taken separately, fur in either there may be justice and Fberality, but there is glu,t danger if Lord Grey is to carry into execution construction of LordWinchilsea's wishes, for whi-li it is extremely probable Lord W. himself woull not in all cases incur the mural or legal respell sibility. It would, in a word, be the very wcrst form of administration for the peliey of a Government to be influenced by others, who merely tibet, and are irresponsible. It would be an irrational system of immediate Government by no one—for if the Mi nister does wrong, and quotes.the abettor, the lat ter may and would deny the application of his own principle in the particular instance, whatever may be the sufferings of others. One might in all such cases doubt whether the nominal Minister is Mi nister de facto, or the abettor ; for if the Ministe r yields to the abettor to obtain his influence on other points, it might be inferred that the abettor was really the Minister, and therefore the public would be between two fires. If Lord Winchilsea, with all his sincerity, were proposed as Minister, he would certainly not be popular; but Lord Grey is popular—ought Lord Grey then to be governed by the instigations of a Peer, who entertains on most questions such oppo site principles to those which render himself popu lar ? I should think the less of this parliamentary col loquy, if the practices suggested by bold ‘Vinctil sea, did not too often surprise the public ; for in the same length of time, we never witnessed greater activity of unbending legal prosecution than under this liberal Whig Administration ! Bath, June 25. CA TO. THE EMPEROR OF BRAZIL AND RlB FAMILY. —This personage, who, it is understood, has ob tained permission to reside in this country in a private capacity, is in his 33d year, having been born October 12, 1798. His ex-Alajt sty is the eldest son and second child of de late King of the United Kingdom of Porta gal, Brazil, and Algarve, and nephew to King berdinand of Spain, whose sister, the Infanta Charlotte Joa quima, was united to King John in 1790. Durirg the lifetime of the late King of Portu gal, Don Pedro was styled Prince of Brazil and Alcantara. At the ape cf 19 his ex-Majesty foi ed a matrimonial alliance with the Areltdt:cliet:s Leopoldina Caroline, second daughter of the Emperor of Austria, and sister to the Empress Maria Louisa, Grand Duchess of Parma. By the Empress, who died December 11, 1826, Don Pe dro has issue five childten, viz. Donna Maria da Gloria, born April 4, 1819, " Queen of Por tugal," and Prince-s of IL iri ;2. Donna Jan born March 1, 1821 ; :3. Dr n P au l o , b orn IFebruary 17, 1823 ; 4. Doane Frances Caro line, born August 2, 1824 ; .5. Dcn ['edit), horn December 2, 1825. The ex-Emperor untried secondly, August 2, 1829, the Prince:: Amelia Eugenia, daughter of Eugene Beal.hainois, Mike of Leuelitenberg, and late N'ice:oy of Italy, and niece to the King of BaraTit. Don Pedro was c.owncd Constitutional EnTs and DA - ender of the Empire of Brazil, December I, 1822 ; consequently, his reign has :..tm:ewhat exceeded eight years. The renowned DUII NI iguel, the de facto Sovereign of Portugal, is three yea-s the junior of the expatriated Einvmor, who has also th:ea surviving sisters, viz. the Infanta Maria Thertsn (widow of Don Pedro of Spain), and the Infantas Isabeja and Ma. is Anne. The Emperor, it appears, travels um7er the title of the Duke of Braganza, one of his hereditary honours, and a dia:by in Portugal. Among the many beetficial establishments to which the New Beer Act has opened a door to the temperately disposed, we find one on a scale of comfort combined with neatness, seldom to be found among the usual places of resort of the even ing lounger, in the — talutation Coffee House and Shrubbery in Newgete Street. A visit to thisplace will be 141 id to o justify this well-merited notice ; and n sta., t peerwerance in his present attentions to the cpnafortauf his visits re, will doubtless secure to the eutesiiisiyg propiier, that patronage and encouragenadF-without v high even the Ptis in urbe would tweets 'illy fall to the ground.
