re; BRAZILS. ....0111011 10 ."' Papers and pr i v ate letters, by his Majesty's ship Creole, arrived o ff Plymouth , have been received from Rio de J aneirn to the 26th of November. They contain a confirmation of the account of a Revolution at Brazil, but from the circum stance mentioned below, not in a connected or satisfactory form. All the private setters refer to the information trans mitted by the Packet which Ned sailed two days previous to the departure of the Creole, and which has not yet or- • rived. The following are extracts from letters and papers received : Extract of a letter, date •1 Rio de Janeiro, Nov. 21, 1823. " Oar Ministers are now constantly bolding conferences with his Majesty, in order to frame a Constitution, or Charter, which is expected fo be on the basis of the Brit ish Constitution. " The Emperor could not possibly permit the Conven tion lately assembled to continue ; amongst them were many perverse and ignorant persons, totally incapable of any idea for a Conaitntion on practical principles ; there was no altern ,tive—the Emperor must suffer himself to be divested of all the monarchical prerogatives, or he must dissolve the Convention; they had made him take off his crown on opening the Sitting, refused to give him a Veto, deprived him of his Privy Council, and even shown an in tention of depriving him of the power of rewarding ser vices done to the state. " Every thing is in perfect tranquillity, and all persons not of the violent Republican party are satisfied that affairs would bare been much worse if the Emperor had sub mitted. Experience has convinced me, that the present generation is not fit for collecting amongst them any Le gislative Asr-inbly.. " The trade here is immense, and from that alone, at pre sent, all the expenses of warlike operations have been de frayed without imposing any new taxes. Should this Government raise any Loan, I am convinced there is ample security and means for making good every cc gagement." (EXTRACT OF ANOTHER LETTER ) RIO JANEIRO, Nov. 26. "In exchange there is a great deal of fluctuation ; it opened by this packet at 49i ; afterwards, there being a quantity of specie on sale, it advanced, and went to 50, but owing to the orcurence of the House of Assembly on the 12th inst. remitters became anxious, and money is again offering at 491 and 494. The Assembly was surrounded with troops, and dissolved, and several members most stre nuous in the Brazilian cause were made prisoners. The Europeans have brought this about by their intrigues with the Emperor, and with tie European Officers holding com missions in the army, very much to the dissatisfaction of the inhabitants generally ; and the pnblic opinion has been so strongly manifested, as to justify an expectation that every thing must return to its former footing. " The Market has altogether revived, front having been in a state of complete langoor. 'I he Brazilian Army is said to have entered Monte Video, which long-looked-for event will be atten led with beneficial consequences. In our produce there is no material alteration. Sugar 1,800 to 1,850. Coffee 4,300 to 4,400. Hides 145 to 155. Reis Exchange 49." (EXTRACTS FROM TOR PAPERS.) Itto DE JANKIRD, Nov. 20. The Emperw, through the Secretary of State for the De partment of .Iti‘tiee, orders the Intendant General of the Police to embark for Europe (on boards vessel to br fitted out for the purpose), Antonio de Souza Veira, and the per sons of his family confined with him in the fort of the lib& des Cobras ; sod he shall likewise summon Paulo Jourdan Joao Bernardo de Reis, and Henrique Gircez, to appear before him, and shall intimate to them, that they have to quit the dominions of the empire within the space of 39 days, for any part in Europe they in ty choose.

OVIERAL ROTTlN.—Various false reports had 'been spread in Switzerland, the native land of Rotten, the late Governor of Barcelona, respecting the conduct of that brave man when in the Spanish service, or the mode of his reception and treatment in the territory through w hich, or the canton in which he ir:Nials to reside. A Swiss pa. per contradicts these reports in the following article : " It has been said that the General had been conducted like a prisoner through Savoy, that be had brought home with him a considerable fortune, and that he had behaved with great cruelty towards the monks when be commanded is Spain. The very accurate information of which we are in possession enables us to refute these reports, and to as sure our readers that General Rotten experienced no moles tation in his way from Genoa to Sion; that lie was every whe:e treated with the due regard to his rank and merits in the Sardinian states; that he reached his native country with a trifling sum; and that, from a feeling of delicacy, be did not even demand the arrears of his pay, which amounted to eighty thousand francs of French money. It is equally false that he was guilty of the cruelties asctibed to him, such as ordering monks to be put in sacks and thrown into the sea. So far was he from manifesting a spirit of this kind, that his conduct was generally inilial gent ; that he did much good to the poor; that he never ev inced any severity, except when urged by duci, sod act ing within the limits of law."

B9llll Ot --Itattiftuatt FRIDAY EVENING, JANUARY 23, 1524. STOCK EXCHANGE, 12 O 'CLOCK.—Consols opened this morning at 8911, and got up to H, but at present they are 8911 for the account, and for money 8911, with a market looking towards a rise. We do not expect any Express from Paris this morn ing, owing to Wednesday. the anniversary of the death of Louis the Sixteenth, being a strict holiday in the above capital. The high price of Consols is attributed to the report of the King's Spereli being favourable, and a determination on the part of Ministers, to maintain peace in Europe t as well as to the abundance of money afloat. Foams FUN s.—Spanish Bonds opened at 241 to 1. at which price they remain, with little doing. Most of what is doing, this morning is in the Mexican Loan.

The answer to these solicitations is not yet known, nor the mode which England will adopt is this case. Liberty in all ages and in all countries has been or slow growth. I .fore this ameliorating principle can take root any where, the public mind must be enlightened, and a union of feelings and opinions must pervade the great mass of the people. To deserve rational liberty, there are l essons to be learned ofsome difficulty to prepare the mind for the eujoymelt of that estimable blessing, as well as the practice of acts of self-denial, which the communion of common interests demands. Despotism is a simple system, consisting only of the power to trample upon right—it is therefore an easy lesson, which fools may learn, and which madmen can scarcely disgrase. Ferdinand of Spain has displayed all the qualities required in a legitimate despot, end though little above the standard of an idiot, by no means dis ewes his profession. II is example has given courage to another transatlantic legitimate at Brazzils—to throw off the n ask, and declare himself the tyrant. Though the hypocrisy of this new made Emperor, is sufficiently disosing, yet in developing his real character, there is no ingenuity to admire. In this revolution there is nothing erea', but the stupid and detestable hardihood of the prime Ac•or. I have the power and the wish to play the tyran., • and it is my pleasure my subjects should be slaves." Such is the language of despots, nor will they ever be taught otherwise, till roused from their delirium, by the awakened clamours of an outraged and oppressed people . European Legitimacy has happily for mankind pushed its claims min+ too f.r, and we are confident the day cannot be far distant, when mankind, shaking off the chains that oppress them, will, by a display of energy worthy of the range, set the civilizA world free from the bondage of des- poli stn. Several meetings have taken place among persons who have been convicted under the New Vagran . , on charges et an indecent ex?nsnre, and whose convictions have been afterwards quashed, by appeal to the Quarter Sessions. In the whole history of English Legislation, never was any Act passed more•liable to abuse, or more hostile to the liberty of the subject. Upon the solitary and unsupport ed accusation of a watchman, who himself is allowed a pre mium of 51. for his testimonyony man of the most spotless life and resp-ctable character, may be immured in the worst of prisons, compelled to work at the treadquill, and his name infamously branded' with the scandalous title of rogue and vagabond. And what is the redress for all this outrage and all this infamy? Why, the aggrieved, if he can command ten or fifteen pounds, may prosecute an ap peal against the conviction of the Magistrates, and if suc cessful, most sit down contented with his loss, and a ruined character, with no other advantage than the bare re storation to that liberty, which, to the innocent, has lost half its charms. A case reported In our paper of yester day, among other proceedings at the Middlesex Sessions, sheers upon what a slight surmise, on the part not of the corrupt, but of the uninformed, the character eta respectable and suffering lean may be exposed to all these trials. We are glad, therefore, to find, that the Table of the House of Com mons is to be covered with Petitions for the repeal of this most obnoxious Act, so hostile to every principle of libert3N hitherto held sacred in this country. ---- - A cotrnvotary Journal has presented the Public with the following curious and highly interesting colloquy, which recently took place, between Lord Eldan and Mr. Bel " Before Mr. Bell had finally relined fromh e Chancery h eCe nrt of Chancery, he waited on the Lord l. of t h e Chancellor, to arqnaint 'limo( hie intention. The learned Lord, justly estimating the distinguished legal abilitice of Mr.B. remonstrated with him on the impolicy of putting his I intentions into immediate execution. "My Lord." said Mr. Bell, "I am growing old." " 1 am your senior by some years," replied Lord Eldon. "My Lord, I feel myself growing weak." "I am mach weaker, Mr. Bell," sa:d the Chancellor. " I have a swimming in my head," said Mr. Bell. "And F o haSe I," retorted the Chancellor. "My Lord," said Mr. Bell, " I have made money enough." the Chancellor was silent. After this most affecting appeal of the noble Lord, will no one in pity muster resolution enough to relieve this venerable Sage of the Law, from the toils of office, and the exhanuting . fatigues of his overwhelming legal avocations? Will neither his old age, his feeble weakness, nor his swimming head plead with some generous soul to offer himself as his Lordship's successor? his Lordship's own account, as all is peace within and without, there need be no apprehension, for he has been too long in traininy, not to be perfectly prepared for all changes, belonging to the chequere•l lot of man. Indeed, from the very duties he has been called upon to • fulfil, as the faitlifill Keeper of the Royal Con sciences, it Is well known, he has been stri , tly attentive to his own. On that ground, there fore. hisELordahip can have no cause• for uneasi ness or alarm ; Pat still, there is an homage due to the de. corum and dignity of virtue, which seems to require that a great and good man should allowed some interva from the distracting bustle of life, for pirate repose an I salutary meditation. Sir W. Scott makes another public man say:— But years steal cn-o-and higher duties crave, some space between the Chancery and the grave ; That like the Roman in the Capitol, He may adjust his mantle 'ere he fill ; His life's brief act in public service flown, The last, the elosin4 scene, should be his own.

IRISH 111C/IlatT. 7 —As some labourers were lately sinking a pit to procure gravel in a bog, in the County of Kildare, on the estate of Mr. Wil'iam Murphy, of Dublin, they dis covered, at a considerable depth, the barly of a man, in a state of complete preservation. The earth which encom passed the body oas a dry turf mould; the body itself, o f the consistence of tanned leather; the members so flexible and the features so perfect, as to induce commoo observers to.suppose it had been a recent sepulture; but the state of the ground is which it hail been discovered,and the depth at whi.:h it was found, joined to the confident assertions of the oldest persons in the neighboorbood, " that no person bad 'over been there interred during their time," establishes beyond a doubt the fact, that the body has lain in that ground at least one century! It has been interred in an adjacent burying ground. Mr. Southey, the Poet Laureate, has been on a visit to his relatives and friends in this town during the last week. (Taunton Courier.) New BAILBT COURT, Jan. 16.—(Before James Norris, Esq.)—A man in a most disgraceful state of intoxication wis brought into the Court for being very riotous and noisy in the Collegiate church dnring the time of Divine Service this morning. The man, on entering the Court-room, was very violent and abusive to the Magistrate, and it was with great ditficultv that the beadles could place him at the bar. The Rev. Mr. Elthelston and the Rev. Mr. Reming ton attended, to compl lin against him. Mr. Remington stated that the min's conduct had been very' bad, particu larly during the performance of the marriage ceremony, of which lie bad caused a suspension by his intoxicat ed -demeanour. Upon bearing the charge made, the fellow became still more abusive ; and Mr. Norris was ander the necessity of remanding him nntll Saturday, when, he stated, it' he did not express proper contrition for his most disgraceful conduct, he would require him to find sureties to keep the peace. Many instances of flagrant conduct .during the celebration of marriages having occurred in the collrgia:e church, it is de termined, we understand, to make examples of tt , ose rarties who shall in futnre demean themselves improperly In that sacred edifice.—(Manchester Chronic!e). slnvi:rerePeredt.,.
