The last advices from Lisbon to the 30th ult. represent that city to be still in a very unsettled state. Many arrests had been made, and amongst them the editor of a popular joumsl was included. The movements of the disaffected are closely watched, and their hopes of success arc declin ing. Hat the army remains as much as ever a source of uneasiness and alarm to the King, who, it is understood, persists in requiring military aid from this country. Ilia Most Faithful Majesty had intimated, that if England de einCd to render him the assistance he solicited, he would immediately seems thiroffere of Frame. Ths King's ob-J ;cc: is said to be, nut wholly to disband his army, but simply to rt model it. No government can long subsist in a country in which a licesiklous soldiery have confederated themselves to overawe it. ?Ohne confidence wee podully reviving in I.l.ltan ; but it comet be ceopicasireemored until the atmy be rtntleml the servek tnstead of the master of the State. ft was known that British troops had boy n applied for, snid the inhab:t ints of Lisbon, who remember their ex etdlvnt conduct during the war, openly and generalk ex pressed tbeir anxiety for their presence again. it was believed that no answer had been received to the last de 'patches of Sir Edward Thornton. Despatches from Sierra Leone, dated the 17th of April, and from Cape Coast Castle, dated the 9th of May, were' yesterday received at the Co'.onial ()Rice. From these accounts we kern, that the Aithantees bare advanced in great numbers uton Cape tout Castle. Captain Ven karoc, who commanded II e British troops, had been obliged to retreat across the river Boosatnpra. The Askantees bad followed him, and, when these despatches left the Colony, hail pushed on to Commends, within 15 miles of Cape Coast Castle. A considerable body of na tives continues with the Britis'i forces, and no appre hension was cntertaire I that the enemy would attempt to teak? an attack upon them. The Castle, which is built on a rock projecting into the sea, mounts 100 guns, and has extensive utsgasines. It is considered s very strong fortili eiron. Thee,. ara, besides, two tnartello towers, mounted with 92 pound carronades, upon the bil's which command :be landitde passage to the Castle. The settlement itself, therefore, is net in danger, though the savages may sweep the adjacent country. Captain Blenkarne was making every preparation for renewing offensive hostilities against the Ashan tees, as soon as the arrival of reinforcements would enable the British to take the field. A deep and la: Ling impression must he made on these barbarians, or the Euro pean traders will never again be in safety on that coast. The most cordial spirit of co-operation happily exists among the several Governors of the Europ an settle ments. By advice. received yesterday from the Dutch fort of St. George tl'Elmina, it appears that the exchange of Mr. Williams, the Colonial Agent, had been effected through the good offices of the Dutch Governor, on condi tion that he should not be allowed to retire to Cape Coast, or depart for Europe, until the expiration of s certain , period. Mr. Williams was made prisoner on the melan choly defeat of the late Sir Charles M'Carthy. As the condition of his remaining at Elmina was imposed in order that he might be forthcoming "to settle the pa/over," it would appear that the Ashantees have some idea of nege elation. We have no desire to have blood shed unneces sarily, from any mistaken notion of national honour, especially with reference to a at of gross and ignorant barbarians like these ; but as respect can be extorted from them only through their fears, and as the least amount of suffering will, upon the whole, result from a vigorous chastisement inflicted upon them at the present mdmcnt, we treat that no terms will be granted to them while they remain in our settlements, or in the territories of our allies, nor till they have, in some shape which shall admit of no eiscontruction, done penance for the outrages they have committed. This should be a preliminary point.before the Claver was commenced. We are glad to learn that the ony was in • healthy state, and that the confidence of the settlers was greatly restored. The answer of Governor Woodford to the petition of the free inhabitants of Trinidad, for the suspension of the Order in Council, respecting the future treatment of the Slaves, will be found in another column. It appears, that the petitioners were mistaken in supposing that the Governor bad any power by law to suspend the promulgation of any order of his Majesty in . Council. In the first place, the Governor states his concern that the meeting should have taken place after he had signified his disapprobation of its object. We admit, that the discussion of the measures of Government in a Colony, immediately under the dominion of the Crown, cannot be suffered as freely as in those in which the legislative authority is vested in houses of as sembly; but in a matter so deeply and directly affecting the property of the planters, there could surely be no reason for wishing to stifle the temperate and decorous expression of their sentiments. It was perhaps necessary that his Ex cellency, as a point of etiquette, should decline to receive the deputation. Further than that, however, in our opinion, the Governor, in vindication of his dignity, was not required to proceed. No one will pretend that, either in the petition or in any part of the proceedings of the meeting, any disrespectful or objectionable phrase could be found. All was a course of cool argument ; and legislating on this subject, as his • Majesty's Government are, at so great a distance from the spot, and in almost utter ignorance, practically, of the diffi culties they have to cope with, and the obstacles they have to surmount, the judgment of the most intelligent planters, as to the intended improvement of the slave population, must be coveted by them. The absence of a House of Assembly, or any other delegated body, through which the planters might constitutionally make known their feelings, furnishes a strong ground why they ought, without ani madversion, to have been permitted humbly to approach the Crown in defence of what they deem to he their in terests. No meeting could have been conducted more dis paniemately. The fullest justice was done by the speakers, especially by Mr. Burnley, to the motives of the aboli tienists, and the intentions of his Majesty's Government. Mr. IVilberfume and his fellow-labourers in the peat work of the abolition of the slave trade were compli mented by name for the services they had rendered to humanity. Never were the liberality and temperance of any meeting more conspicuous. In order to enhance the high satisfaction which must be felt at the proceed ings of the colonists of Trinidad, it only remains for us to state, that at the time they were thus calmly pointing out the errors and defects of the regulations about to be imposed upon them, general gloom and despondency were spread over the face of the island, and the most dreadful apprehensions pervaded the free in habitants, that they would be engulphed in poverty and ruin, if not destroyed, by the insurrection of their slaves. We may smile at these apprehensions, happily remote as we are from their perils ; but, whether well or ill grounded, there can be no doubt, from the latest accounts from Trini dad, that even the most experienced were filled with dread at the prospect before them. A meeting, under these cir cumstances, behaving with such eminent forbearance and generosity, might, we think, have been allowed to pass, with out the Governor's censure. His Excellency says, that "the points comprised in the Order in Council were recommend- I ed to his Majesty's Government by the whole body of West India Planters and Merchants in London, as fit con cessions on the part of the slave proprietors." This may Ib e true to the . .letter, and yet it may not be true, that the proposed regulations are adapted to the purposes for which they have been framed. 'What is meant by the statement, that "the points were recommended to his Majesty's government ?" This declaration admits too much, without, in fact, giving any information. Wu gke attention of his Majesty's Government directed generally to certain objects ? or were the Mean's iireserThiaed' in the regulations specifically suggested ? The public must have a more definite statement, if it be intended to enter upon a justification of the provisions of the Order in Council. But if " the West India platters and merchants in London" were persons fitting to have a voice in the enactment of these measures, a fiallori the planters and merchants in the West Indies, who are to be exposed to lie operation of the experiment, ought to be permitted to give their opinion of its justice and practicability. Ibis Majesty's Government are more likely to have their views enlightened by those who are practically acquainted with the evils sought to be eradicated, than by those who can know little about them ; and we regret, therefore, that the Governor should so have expressed himself in his answer, as in all probability to check very strongly, if not wholly to sup press, any future manifestation of the sentiments of the colonists with regard to any further steps that may be taken, either to modify or amend the regulations new in force for the improvement of the negro population. In the private letters yesterday from Lisbon it is stated, that s lady, named Juromenha, had been discovered to be particularly active in promoting plots against the govvrii went, and was therefore ordered to leave Lisbon in forty eight hours. It is stated that Marshal &reefer!, with the natural feeling of an Englishman toward the fair rex, had twice applied to the King in this lady's favour ; but the reports of the Police were probably too decisive of her critainalty ; for, notwithstanding the gnat desire of the King to gratify the Marshal, no further relaxation of the orders previously lone.' could be obtained, than teat she should be allowed to choose her place of residence any where beyond a certain distance from the capital.

The remains of the Countess of Brownlow were re- moved on Monday from her town residence in Cave ndisb square, in a hearse drawn by eight horses, ou its way to Grantham, in Lincolnshire, for intern ent in the family vault. 'l' be funeral was strictly private. The lady whose frailty was valued at " One Thourand Pounds," by a Jury, on Saturday, at the Smontlary's Court, was married, previous to her introduction to her present injured husband, to a M. de T—, a young Frenchman of good family, secomplished manners, but of most profligate character. The tnatch was stolen ; but on its being discovered by the lady's father, he gave the husl.and ten thousand pounds to relinquish all claims to his bride, and the marriage was dissolved by the American courts.

CHORUS OF SPIRITS PRECEDING THE DHLI:GE. irrom Lordßyrou's Poem of " Hawn, tied Earth...l hark ! hark ! already can we hear the voice Of growing ocean's gloomy swell ; The winds, too, plume their piercing wings ! The clouds have nearly tilled their springs ; The fountains of the great deep shall be broken, And heaven set wide her windows ; while mankind View, unacknowledged, each tremendous token— Still, as they were from the beginning, blind. We hcar the sound they can of hear, The mustering thunders of the threatening sphere; Vet a few hours their coming is delad ; Their flashing barmen , folded still ' on high, Vet undisplajd, Save to the Spirits' all-pervading eye. Howl ! howl ! oh Earth ! Thy death is nearer than thy recent birth. Tremble, ye mountains, soon to shrink below The ocean's overflow ! The waves Shall break upon your cliff's; and shells, The little shells of ocean's least things, be Deposed where now the eagle's offspring dwells—. How shall he shriek o'er the remorseless sea ! Anil call his nestlings up with fruitless yell, I . nanswered, save by the encroaching swell ; While rain shall long in vain fur his broad wings, The wingr which could not save : Where could he rest them, while the whole space brings, Nought to his eye beyond the deep, his grave LORD BYRON. We lame received a series of the Telegr* Greco, pub lished at Missolonghi, to the 16th May. The articles of chief interest which they contain are the following, rela tive to the late Lord Byron : Missotowont, May It. " The clergy proceeded in a body this day to . the house where the remains of Lord Byron laid, in order to take into thOir keeping, and remove to the church of San Spiri , dion, the heart, brains, &c. of the deceased, which had ' been left to the eco of the city of Missolongbi. The city made i solemn Vequcst to Count Ganiba (the friend of 'Lord Byron) for permission to erect a monument to the' memory of their benefactor and illustrious fellow-citizen., '1 His Lordship had already accepted the freedom of the I city. Count Gamba felt it his duty to deposit his nob!? friend's remains in the care of the city, until they might be reclaimed by his relatives. " Two cheats were prepared for the occasion, and after being examined, were sealed by the Magistrates. In one' of them was contained the body, and in the other the heart and brains of the noble defunct. They were removed by four officers of his brigade to the bark which transported them to Baxiladi, and thence into a larger vessel, to be conveyed to Zante. The whole of the Noble Lord's bri gade was drawn out in front of his late residence, and along the shore of the sea. The convoy was accompanied by the Prince A. Mavrocorelato, the Primates, the Military Commandants, and an immense concourse of people, whose ' countenances and manner bore testimony to their sorrow at taking this last farewell of their benefactor and fellow citizen. As soon as the corpse was removed to the bark it was saluted by discharges of musketry and artillery. The cannon of his brigade, drawn up along the coast, saluted with 9.3 minute guns—nine were discharged from the battery, and three from the fort of Basiladi ; making, in all 37, the number of years the noble defunct had lived. What a melancholy contrast to the joyous salutes which four months previous bad hailed his arrival in Misso longhi ! One consolation, however, remains: the good he has effected will not be lost; the seeds he has sown with such alacrity and industry for the benefit of 'Greece will yet produce a noble harvest. The most , glorious monument which can be raised to him will be the feelings of gratitude and love, which nmain 1 stamped in the heart of every Greek and every friend of humanity. " In the bark which transported the Noble Lord's re mains to Zante were his friend Count Gamba, two other officers of his brigade, Captain and Adjutant Ifesketh, Lieutenant ll'inter, his private physician Dr. Brown, his faithful valet Fletc her. who had served him more than twenty years, and his domestic Batista Fuleciere. In two other barks followed his horses and all his effiets, under the care of his secretary, Signor Lego Zambelli. The Go vernment gent likewise two gun-boats to accompany them. " The following account of the opening of Lord hyron's body, and the ap pearances it exhibited, is gven by the professional Gentlemen to whom that office was en trusted : " i. The bones of the head were found to be excessively hard, and the skull was without the slightest sign of xviture, like that of an octogenarian. It might have been said to consist of a single bone without de pita'''. " 2. The Jura ntenince. • as so firmly attached to the internal surface of the cranium, that it required the repeated exertions of two strong men to separate the outer bones from it. The vessels of this membrane were greatly distended and completely full, and it was united to the pia mum , in di&rent parts, by some 'membra neous filaments. " 3. Between the pin nu-mince and the furrows of the brain, a great many bubbles of air were found with drops of lymph adher ing in several places to the pia meninge. ' 4. The grand fish of the brain was emoted with membraneous filmier ts, which tutu bed it firmly to both the hemispheres ; it was likewise extremely full of blood. " 5. The cerebral medulla was full of minute blood-easels of a bright red colour, and say much swoln. Cyder the pans 1421 - 0/1118 at the base of the hemispheres, in the two superior or lateral ven tricles, there was found an extratasation of about two minces of bloody serum ; and at the bottom of the cerebellum there wan a similar expansion, the eliZets of a severe inflammation of the brain. " h. The medullary substance was in much greater proportion than is common in the cortex, and was very firm and consistent. The cerebrum and cer..Vlltatt, without any of the integuments, weighed about six medical pounds. " 7. The impre‘siuns or furrows of the blood-vessels, in the in_ te:nal part of the skull bones, though small, were much more nu. turrous than usual. . . . . " L. The lungs were very fine, perrectly sound, but large, to a size almost gigantic. " 9. Between the pericardium and the heart there was an ounce of Irmpliatic water. The heart was more ample and voluminous thaii ordinary, but its muscular substance was very relaxed and fibreleisr._ " It). The liver was smaller than the natural size, as were like wise the biliary vessels, which, instead of bile, contained air. The intestines were distended with air, a.. 1 of a deep yellow colour. " 11. The reins were very large and healthy, and the urinary vessel. comparatively small. " From this examination it was unanimously concluded by the medical gentlemen who attended it, that if Lord Byron, from the commencement of his illness, bad con sented to any loss of blood, is his private physician re peatedly advised, or even if at a more advanc:ll stage of the disorder lie had yielded to the pressina solicitations of his medical advisers, to allow a copious blooding, his Lordship would not have fallen a victim to this attack. From the statements marked 1,8, 9, it may be confidently asserted limsl../ais-Lasslalsap.ooulsi not have lived many years. from his extreme susceptibility of disease, either through the strength of his passions, his excessive occupations, or even through his utter disregard of all the necessary means to prevent the erects of constipation."

If our Government has been obliged to employ the sere rity of the laws against the Secret Associations still sub sisting in the University of Halle, it has lately issued eery wholesome and energetic ordinances against that pernicious system of association, especially called the Burchenschaft, to put an end to it in future in all the rnircrsities of the Kingdom. These Associations are in future to be con sidered not merely u Associations among the Students, but as belonging to the class of Secret Societies prohibited by the edicts of 1798 and 1816, and consequently punished by the criminal law which inflicts the penahy of impriam ment in a fortress, for a term of three to ten years. besitia expulsion from the University, and disqualification front filling any public office, in which even the practice of the Medical Profession is included. The investigation commenced against the members of a secret revolutionary Society in Germany, is now confided:, a Special Commission, which is to make its report to ann. thee Court of Justice, probably the tribunal at Breslau. The number of persona confined in the Castle of Copeniei is very differently stated, many of them had already kJ the University, and several are of very distinguished &mi. lies. One of the moat important confessions is said to hare been obtained in the following singular manner. A young man, having taken the oath of the Society, repented. and, feeling his honour implicated, and unable to bear the parp of remorse, he resolved to put an end to his life, and at tempted to cut his throat with a blunt knife ; failing is this, he stabbed himself ; however be did not wound hin- self mortally, and was happily cured. lie attributed his preservation to a special interposition of Providence, and confessed all he knew.—Frarakfort ✓orreal.
