PHE REAL PEARL MILK is the only ' Cosmetic in the World that prevents the face, neck. arms, and bands, becoming wrinkled; and what is more remarkable, it a Lady lir Gentleman begins to be wrinkled through advance in years, or from illness, which is often the case, the real Pearl Milk is so soothing and softening to the skin, that by a few times using it the wrinkles will disappear, and the skin will become level ; and is the only rticle that makes the complexion clear, beautiful, and healthy; is pleasant, cooling, refreshing, and so innocent, thst it may be used with safety to infants. It clears all cut.oitous eruptions, spots, pimples, redness, bio:ches, (and even actually clears itching pimples). Persons subject to Leprosy. King'. Evil, and Scrofula, wilt 6Gd the real Pearl Ilk the finest remedy; and it makes coarse. sallow, and sickly complexions a healthy bloom and radiant whiteness. Ladies who use the Pearl Milk will have no 4 , C.`44011 to rouge, paint, Ste. as the lust of them is un la-alttly, and Injurious te the skin ;—therefore Ladies ouilit to be particular what they use fur the skin, as the skin is natural:, thin and delicate.

Several Lithos have declared they have spent pounds fur articles for the skin that are so mitred in the tiewspaptrs, but they :aural they have b:en defrauded, as it did more harm to the skin than good ; but after a few times using the Real Ka-I Milk, they were so pleased with it, tes it began to tsaLtity their eamp)exiom and they found the oftener they essd it the more it cleared away the red spots they had been subject to; •but they said it was a pity it is so dear or taey would use it oftener. • A Lady of Distinction, about forty-flee, has declared so the Proprietor, about two years ego, after recovering from au Hines', ohiereed wrinkles under her eyes, that made Lir look years older : and had had ti.e first rned.cal :.dvice, and used several French and Engli:,ll Cosmetics, yet :uund the wrinkles increased, but of ate washing her face •rich the Pearl 31ilk, her skin gradually became smooth .!..! tem, and made her complexion look health) and youth :el.

FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 26, 1831. quillity and determination among all classes to de fend him against any attempt by Bon Pedro, or by whomsoever it may be.made. I have to relate to you a most unfortunate and distressing circumstance that has occurred at Bu cellcs, four leagues from here, to two young Eng lish officers, who went there as a walk to see the country and the Lines, and to return by way •of Cintm ; they partook of some refreshment iu Bu cellos, where they were kindly and hospitably treated, after which they proceeded on their jour ney, traversing the fields, where they were attacked by some banditti who haunt those places, and who robbed them and most cruelly beat them, At the time they wore no distinction by which they could be known to be officers, which is to be regretted. They defended themselves bravely, but were out numbered. Some hours afterwards a few of the ' peasantry coming to the spot, on their road to the village, and seeing them in that conditien,— entirely unable to move, hastened to call the Sieur da Fora (magistrate) of the place, who lost no time io having them conducted toßucellos, and providing medical assistance, as well as every other ne cessary treatment and attention, and in dispatch. ing nearly the whole of the male population in search of the robbers. These unfortunate gentle men have arrived here and are in a fair way of recovery, and express their gratitude for the very humane attention shewn them by the Magistrate.: they impute no blame whatever to the Govern . - ment. A devassa (proccs verbal) has been insti tuted with the strictest orders that the robbers should be brought to justice, placing at the com mand of the Magistrates who arc appoiuted on this diligence any number of the armed force and of the police they may deem proper for the disco very and apprehension of the perpetrators of this horrible deed. I have heard that the names of the two sufferers are a Mr. Parnell and a Mr. Fitz roy, who it is said is related to the Duke of Grafton. LETTER OF ♦ LIBERAL IN LISBON TO HIS FRIEND PORTUGAL. IN LONDON. Idszow, JULY 23, 1831. I have received your letter, dated the 10th inst. and confess to you that, notwithstanding the many good things you tell me regarding our cause, I begin to bo more and more undeceived, and that from thence we have nothing to hope for : all that comes from London and Paris, and which is cir culated here, is reduced to lies and acknowledged falsehoods, by means of which, unfortunately, the authors have succeeded in increasing the number of victims, animating and dragging our friends to attempts and projects from which have resulted imprisonments, trials, and other misfortunes, which you know. We already cannot bear the weight of the impositions and contemptible plans contained in the correspondenct with the libe rals, which we receive by every packet, who, to persuade us to believe in them, tells us that they are in communication with certain influential personages of the English Cabinet, as also with many members of the French Government. That the Government of Don Miguel proceeds against us, and closely watches us, I can perfectly understand, because we are opposed to him, and every man of sense will understand the same ; but that those of our communion and of our own pro per party, who tell us they profess principles of justice and humanity, and make those principles of their liberalism only consist in stud3ing day and night in stratagems which hurl us to the brink of ruin and disgrace, sacrificing us without mercy or remorse, is ‘...11.1t cannot be understuod, and it is what we cannot tolerate ; it is also that which makes the Government of Don Miguel the more supportable, and in fact excites our complaints against our soi-disant friends of L on d on an d Paris. Of the many flattering promises held out to us, we have not yet seen one realized. Renduffe has written to say that Candido Jose Xavier, the inti mate friend of the Minister Sebastiani, had ob tained his pei mission that troops for disembarkation should be put on board the French squadron, to establish the Liberal Government, independent of the revolution which our friends in London wished we should make without means or force. But what have we seen by the coming of the French squa• dron ? We see by the result that the Government of Dou Miguel has gained more moral force and a greater degree of political consideration, while our Liberal party has sunk in general estimation, and' given the world to know its weakness, and the degradation, more or less, of those who informed us that they influenced the hostilities of the French 'squadron. Padre M. in his correspondence with the Snra. da Travessa dos Ladroens, where 1 always go to know the news by the packet, wrote that the young Queen was daily expected in London, and every arrangement perfected to r e c e i ve an d ac knov.ledge her as such, and that the Queen of England had prepared a part of Windsor Castle for her residence. A letter from Ida, S. C. ad dressed to Roque Ribeiro, speaks still more posi tively of the acknowledgment, assuring us that he had just quitted a Cabin e t M i n i s t er , from whom he knew it oflici :Ily. I refer . you to all these things that you may koow how we are deceived by those liberal friends of ours, whose object, by their tin ! worthy and discreditable cernadoi dence, is to in stigatt.i us to sonic daring enterprise: but it is in vain ; for, besides not being able to attempt any thing, we a.ready give no credit or belief to their communications. the next packet I will write more fully ; and in the mean time tell our friend . . . . not to write to Campelio, who has no wish to be ac quainted with what is passing, and he does not write by this opportunity on account of indisposi tion. O. 1. P. wishes also that no more letters may be sent him , and so does Jorge Rei, who says that he will hand them over to the police the in stant he receives thorn. Such is the disagreeable and calamitous state iu which we at present find ourselvee. f. Lisncx, Auo. 6—Since I wrote you bv ' last mail nothing scarcely worthy of communica tion has happened. A Council of State was assem bled this forenoou, at which all the Ministers were praent, bat nothing of their deliberations has trans pired. At the French Admiral's hallno Portuguese wns present, very few Englishmen, and none of the Foreign Consuls. There is not a day with out the arrival of some French vessel, and what is remarkable is, that it generally sails the next, which naturally causes the circulation of many reports ; but a f: igate that came in a few days ago with 279 passengers, in company with another; large vessel with 100 sailors, the former reporting that she came fl um To.:Ion in twenty-seven days, with convicts ja board, and the other from Gibral tar, looked very suspicious ; however, the Govern ment, by good management, succeded in obligieg them to leave the Tagus without their having had eny communication whatever with the shore, and it now ascertained that those vessels had not sailed from those ports, and that the pretended exiles and sailors were no other than Emig,rants. The whole nation is anxious that the remainder of. the French squadron should quit us, until which' it is impossible that perfect order and regu-'' Jai ity cm be restored, so indignant are the people at the late aggressiou of the French, and at those who encouraged the greater part,of them beipg well known, and on tile appearance of any of them in the streets they,camagt well escape the; vengeance of the lloyaiios..

Obedience of their °yds s on _every occasjeis,,The euthushon for pop 414yel daily increases here as well as in the provinces, the ac counts from which assure us of the g eatvst ban- cv - ;;li±l SPIRIT OF THIS DArs JOURNALS. TlMES.—After the decided manner in which the press of England declared itself on the strange phraseology of Marshal Soult in the Chamber of Deputies,—after the strong remonstrances of the English Government, supported by the sympathy of the English people,—after the tendered gua rantee of the Conference of London to the good faith of the Dutch Court,—aud after the expression of alarm by the Bel gians themselves at the presence of a foreign force, calculated to endanger that independence which it came to protect,— the French Ministry, however desirous of acquiring popu larity with the movement party,, could not withdraw from its engagement, or refuse an wider for the immediate recall of its troops. Their continuid stay, when the object of the expedition was accomplished, was a question of peace or war, as well as a question of perfidy or good faith. The French Cabinet Las, therefore, consented to withdraw the chief portion of its army within its own frontier. But by the arrangement, of which this evacuation forms the chief part, it is stipulated that a small corps is still to remain at the request of King Leopold till his own rimy is recog nized ! This is the portion of the arrangement res. petting which Lord Grey last night declined to give the re quired information. It is likewise unhappily a part of the arrangement which the English public cannot approve, and with which the English Government ought not to rest saris. fled. The new King of Belgium does not require th assistance of French bayonets to protect him against the disaffection of his own subjects ; and tie good faith of 1101- ' land, or the fear of a second repalsb, huffichmtly pro tect him ag ainst a second Dutch i nvasion. His Majesty is popular, an d he is therefore safe. Ile must reorganize his army, but he must not employ French drill serfeants or French officers for that purpose. If he really requires an auxiliary force, let him recruit his bodyguard in Switzer. ! land, and not accept of it from Marshal Soult. He can ' never be free from intrigues, disturbances, perplexities, or dangers—he can never be really independent—he can never call himself master at home—his country an never enjoy I that neutrality and secu It, which the great powers of Europe have decreed that it shall possess, so long as there is a sin ' gle foreign soldier on guard, or a single foreign flag waving, in Belgium. POgT.—French papers of the 24th inst. have come to hand. Their contents serve most amply to bear us out in all that we have said of the intentions of the French Go vernment in regard to Belgium. So far from the forces of France bcing about to evacuate that country, the Constitu. tionnet informs us, that " the French army will occupy the most important fortresses, at least till France shall have been repaid for the expenses attending the putting her army of fifty thousand men on the war establishment ;" and as that wretched country is utterly incapable of an. severing a demand of so great amount, its occupancy by the French may be considered as little short of permanency. The idea of Holland being called upon to bear any portion of that indemnity is absurdity in the extreme, and has never been broached by the Ministry of France. Such a proceed• ing would indeed he an outrage upon every principle of na tional policy and the law of Nations. A' Prussian Amy of 24,000 men is said to have crossed the Rhine, hut the object of this movement is not mentioned. Some distur bances have taken place at Marseilles and other towns is the South of France, originating to the manifestations of Royal Legitimacy, uow so generally prevalent in that part of the country. HERA I.D.—A gyeat deal has been recently said, but, as it appears to us, with very little reason, against the foreign policy of our government and the conduct of France as re gards England. A Morning Paper has designated the French as having acted treacherously and insolently (with respect to the Belgic affair, we presume), and asserts that the French army sent it:to Belgium " was not called for by the Prince, for whose alleged support it was put in motion." How any writer could dare to mike such an assertion—an assertion so notoriously false--we cannot imagine. The King of the Belgians did call, as all the world knows, for the assistance the French troops, and it is now quite evi dent that if he had not called for such assistance, or if it had been refused him, the Dutch at this niontem would have born quietly in possession of his kinemn. Nor dice it appear to us that the French have violated :my promise in Dot having withdrawn their troops earlier. The news, however, on this subject, renders any farther remarks upon this part of our Contemporary's Article superfluous. There is no doubt that orders have been given for the with. drawal of die French army from Belgium. With regard to the Belgic affair, therefore, we see no reason to accuse France of a want of good faith. much I. sa ought site to be charged with pursuing " a sordid, selfish, and grasping policy, which exhibits her before all mankind as at once the meanest and most.atrocious of criminals." Nor der we see any justice in the accusation brought against our GJeern ? , oeted, on the score of their foreign .policy, at least so tar as BelgiuM is concerned. Indeed we have no hesitation its saying that, aecoeding to all appearance, they ate likely to bring us nut of this 'affair in a much better manner Thad sit* egiterally expected. But our contemporary brings a Aeriersoltayge against France for the course that %helms ,nurbm i d with revect to Perused.. For our t' We do not bellivethet a slogle mania to be Lased in the Unite t • King. dons, out dt the ranks of the advocates of tyranny, weo does not think that Dm Miguel richly deserves all that he has obtained at the Mends of France. It is not true that France '‘. I . RICE SEVENP;;NCII. se ized all the men-of-wee in the service of Portugal, and i made prize of them, epee full satisfaction 11, , r1 been ensued for whatever injuries her Government complaint(' of. She seized them, we allow, after full satisfaction had been pro. mised ; but a promise front Don Miguel, without a gua rantee for its fulfilment, would be of li'tle value, and there- fore we say that she is perfectly right in retaining then - I But, be this as it may, we shall rejoice if the fall of the atrocious tyrant Miguel can be purchased even at the ex- I pense of the fleet of Portugal, and we suspect that every geneine hater of despotism is of the same opinion. Our I contemporary lauds the Duke of IVellington, and abuses - the present Mitiistey, upon the supposition that his Grace would have taken part with Dort 3liguel, and not left. the; " Minister" to fight his own battles. Now, in our humble opinion, the praise bestowed in this installer open the Dake ; is not very desirable, and re are quite Kure that the cen sure reflects credit rather than disgrace upon the Cabinet of Earl Grey. An English Ministry have nothing to dread from not having abetted the cause of a tyrant bite Don , Miguel ; a contrary line of conduct would have inevitably ,sehjected them to the loss of the contklenre of the pcoele of England. TlMES.—There are complaints, we observe, in the; French journals, that the views of France in respect to 8.1. gium are misrepresented on this side of the water, and sus- picions thrown out by us calculated to embmil the two na tions. We are induced, by the repetition of these complaints in the Jonrrrat dcs Debate, to ray something in the most friendly spirit on this very delicate affair. First of all, we know very well, and so does France, that she would like to have the Belgic provinces; and that this wish is felt equally by Royalist and Repub lican, by the friends of Louis Philippe and the partisans of Charles the Tenth. Then we know also, and so does site, that she possesses a certain herd of furious partisans in Belgium, chiefly in Brussels, who, though France herself might reject the acquisition of Belgium by dishonourable means, would have no objection to give it her by any means whatever; setting honour and good faith at defiance ; and that those partisans have been labouring incessantly fur that purpose ever since the general peace and, further,: though the motives of France might be proper and humane on advancing into Belgium to repel the Dutch, yet we could not but observe that the measure was eagerly adeptee, and Thal before the other Great Powers could be consulted upon the precise measure, though the principle of putting a atop to effusion of blood might have been acknowledged gene rally. These, with many other minor circumstances, are the facts from which suspicions have sprung—facts resulting, we allow, more horn the situation of France and the general feeling of the people, than from the conduct of her govern ment. It has been her misfortune—chary, no doubt, as she is of her honour—to be placed in a situation liable to suepi. cien ; but we will observe, that the suspicions of others will not justify her in the execution of those projects which are imputed to her. She has it in her power to wipe away the suspicions, to dispel the cloud, wherewith rho complains that malevolence has for a while shrouded her fair fame and honourable character for just dealing. Let her withdraw from Belgium as promptly as she entered that country, note that her work of humanity is finished, and then what becomes of the insinuations of her enemies ? They fall upon the heads of their authors, and she emerges with yet greater brightness from ,the temporary obscurity under which she laboured. Her course is clear, if honour be her aim, and the success certain. CHRONI CI.E. —To the promptitude of the French, I Europe is indebted for the preservation of peace ; fur it is hardly necessary to observe, that if a few days only had been suffered to pees before taking the determination to trend troops to Belgium, the Dutch might have established them selves in that country. Itby this means they could have re established the Kingdom cf the Netherlands, other coon. tries would have had nothing to say ; but the Belgians would never have reconciled themselves to a Govern. ment founded on their conquest by a people they so much hate. The, Dutch invasion then, if as successful as the King of Holland could hove wished, would have been only the commencement of a warfare into which ether stat..s might have been drawn. The king of Holland, as Mr. Hume ob. served, may be a very good King for the Dutch, but it is quite clear that his virtues are not appreciated by the Belgians; and it is well that the French have shown him, in eeo convincing a manner, that he has nothing to huge from the indulgence of his military propensities. We entertain a very high respect for the Dutch, to whom as a peo ple, European civilization is perhaps more indebted than to any other. Of all the Tectonic faces, too, they most re semble ourselves, buts in the qualteies of body and mind ; and a similarity of character fortis a natural bond of at. tachment between the two nations But it is nut necessary to confound the Dutch with their ambitious monarch. It may be galling to the King to return to the rank of Stub holder ; but the Dutch will be much happier by themselves than, united to the Belgians. The less, too, they told to their debt by military expeditions beyond their means, the more will they consult their future happiness. POST.—That part of Clause 21 conferring the right of voting on tenants paying 101. a year rent, in weekly pay ments, was discussed last nigh( in Committee, and finally carried, against an amendment moved by Mr. Campbell, by a majority of ($B. The history of this portion of Clause 21 affixes an indelible stigma on the Reform Bill, and dis grace on its authors. In the bill as laid before the pre. sent parliament a proviso was introduce, wi.h the utmost deliberation and perfect knowledge of its effect. limi ing the right of voting to tenants paying ' their rents not more frequently titan once in every half year. The fraud, however, being discovered, at the Birmingham Political Union having taken up the subject, the Miristry, fearful of losing their main support, via, the force of the mob, pleaded first inadvertence, then iyno ! runty, as an apology (both of which pleas have proved to be false), and not only hastened to wilhdraw the obnoxious provision, but ultimately rushed into the opposite extreme of letting in thousands of voters in such a condition of life that they cannot be trusted by their landlords to the amount of two pounds ten shillings ! A great deal was said last night about the intelligence and le. apectability of this class of men, but what opinion was entertained of their intelligence and fitness to vote alien a provision was deliberately introduced into the second bill for the express purpose of excluding them ? If there were wanted any other proof that the opinion of ministers respecting them is still what it was (though they have not scrupled to sacrifice character and conscience to hoe of place), it would be timid in the astounding Let no. ticed last night by Mr. Croker, that alter Lind Grey, in consequence of the protest of the Birmingham Union, had withdrawn the half.yearly tent proviso, the very same clause was introduced in' v the Scotch Reform Jill to come terbalance the concession made to the Radicals of this port of the United Kingdom ! ' CHRONICLE.—The 191. qualification is, of coarse, a very different qualification in different places. I places where there are not more than 300 electors, it will its general be twice as high in reality as in the great and topuloua towns. But then the greater value in the small towns adds to the difficulty of bribery, allele bribery in the great towns is impracticable from the inability of the candidate to buy so great a number of voter , . The ten Firmed resit qua. lification having been disposed of by to majority of three, bundled and fifty-three to ten, diffcuttirs were started • with respect to the times of payment, of rent. 11 r. J. Campbell ob. jetted strongly to giving the franchise to weekly teoants, he de elated " that it would give* landlords—nut aristocratical' landlords, but of a notda, ; lower and more objectionable, class--an extremely Isoltroper Mower. They would, if their tenants were disposed not to secede to their wishes, have the power of deriving then of the franchise in some cows' between the day of proclamation and the day of election.— In such a place as Southwark, a man who had 500 weepy tenants might absolutely turn the election. The only.ner, •eleily to his mind for this was, to prevent all personi lark, voting who paid rent more ftequently than four .titteo..o l , year.

But however politicians may tete, tteeir (mi nions or conduct with their changes of position, their re corded sentimentechange riot. The present Lord tharceller we need scarcely remind our readers, distinguished 'newel' greatly last year in the debates upon the forgery bill. lie exposed the barbarity and the folly of the punishment a death with indignat t eloquence and uncompromising hoe. rility. Atter showing that it is the certainty, and taut the severity, of punishment, that deters men from crime. and having stated that of 217 persons convicted of forgery in seven years only 24 were capitally punished, while of 99 convicted of murder in the same tame Sit were executed, he went on to say—" We are told that practical men wise the punishment of death to be retained, but they ha... come forward by the ,cure-' by the but dred— I may say, by the tliouund—and your table groans under their petitions, denying the imputation, not upon their feel ings, but upon their good sense. The r e petitions agsMat the punishment of death fur forgery proceed from those to whom paper credit is the breath of their nostrils—from those who are ruined if forgery goes unpunished, and who &elate it must generally go un punished as long as death is inflicted for its comma sion." Again, on the third reading of the bill, Mr. (now Lord ) Brougham said, in reference ro the small ma. jority of placemen by whom the'second reading had bean carried—" Would nut the punishneurat, if continued, be censidered to be branded by the rote of the COMPIIOII2 of F:nyland 1 If the principle were unpopular already—if metes feelings rebelled already again'. it—what would be those feelings. that unpopularity, when the sentiments be. came settled, and fixed, and rooted in their 'triode by the set. tette: of the unbiassed wisdom, the calm deliberatedecisiom, of that house ?" During the same debates Sir James Mackin. nosh eloquently and truly argued that the abolition or the capital punishment would be in truth " unly a return to the state of the law as it existed previously to the reign of George 11. a period When the alteration. in the hew of forgery spread over Europe as idea of the sanguinary lend inhuman spirit of our laws, and made the inhabitants of ti:e different States believe that Englishmen valued not lite, ime the blood of man, when they came in competition with their pelf or selfish interests. No law 14 this kind existed to die other great commercial States of Europe. It did not exist in France, or Holland, or Prussia ; it was not, in fect,the taw of any country front Hamburg to Caidis ; from the northern to 'the southern pole of the coinmercialworid. It is this. barbarous law that the petitioners now prayed the House to repeal.' Nor should on this occasion the able and unanswerable pin. test entered on the Journals of the linase of Peers, agathat the punishment of death fur forgery. by Lord Holland be forgotten. It would be difficult to find a document m 're tu the purpose in point of argtynesit, and drawn up with mole force and felicity of exp.esision. " Because if justice enjoins the i n ew.i:y ' at irroportioning the punishment to the moral :sa:pi.ude of an curette; mu- . dence no less requires that the COM sIUP hr pro. duced by such punishment should Out eveed the itali te netion generally excited by the perpeiretan taf ,lie crime ; and that the penalty should be regulated by th..! , ,SIC of 1.11.,11,:, opinion at the time, mid in the country where stab law u. ettacted or allowed' to continue; but, in dos insulter, .be frequt ney of pardon, the numerous petitions of the people, and the mate of the Commons house of Parliament, sufficiemly attest that the punishment by death of crinima.e coiirieted of forgery is uGhoret sit to the spirit of the aye. cont. day to Vie judyment of the public, and rea.ttiny to the Jetlistys 9/ the community." 1 his protest was ei g ued not oay sty Lead Holland, but by the Duke of Richmond a .d Luau Durham, members of' the present Ministry.

It he noble lord should not be prepared, I give notice that I shall, on Monday nest, move for papers Taming to the state of our negociationa in Belgium. Eatl GBEY.—I must say these questions, though not unusual, are frequently inconvenient. Ott this occasion. however, I am authorised to state, that blarshal Gerard kiwi received orders from the Prenth government, to retire 'min , . diately from Belgium, and I have not the least doubt, the Peened government, actif.g on the principies of govd f tot,, and honour, will inspire the most prefect confidence in It s U/deity's government. I know that orders have been girt n to Marshal Gerard to retire from Belgium. The Marquis of LON DONDEBRY.—I beg leave to mute the noble earl that I sincerely Stengestulate him, and the country, if that is the result of the negociations. ,I.ord HOLLAND.— Aly Lords, it gives use great se. de(action to God (said jocosely) the noble stargois is so happy.
