CITY, TUESDAY EVENING. There is an evident backwardness on the part of British capitalists, at the present moment, to purchase Stock. Con sols have remained during the whole day at 78i for this, and 781 for the next Account, the same monotony prevail ing as yesterday. The Foreign Market has displayed but a moderate share of business. Mexican Bonds have advanced to 4.5.; 4G, and were done in the course of the day at 161. The on (lit is, that 400,000 dollars are shipped on account of the October Dividends, and that Messrs. BA at NG have con sented to receive them, and to become the Agents of the Mexican Government. There has been but little doing in Colombian, which remain at a quotation of 32; to 3521. The Greek and Spanish have been hardly mentioned: the latter arc at 10, and the former at 13. The favourites for the day were Brazilian Mining Shares, which have again advanced to 11 premium. Colonial produce of every description has gone off to-day with vigour, at advancing prices. In Mincing-lane there has been considerable demand both for Rum and Sugars, the former showing an advance of from 2d. to 3d. a gallon.' It is quite clear that the report of its being the intention cf his MAJEsry's Government to prohibit the distillation from grain is beginning to operate; should such report prove correct, and of which there can be little or no doubt, Sugars will considerably advance in price from the demand which will necessarily arise for them, for the purpose of supplying the place of grain so prohibited.

'The contemplation of the incomparable benefits and diffusion of general satisfaction which the whole empire has expetienced, In consequence of the inestintatle blessing conferred by your Imperial Majesty in the promulgation of a liberal constitution, anti the aa:t:e having been accepted and sworn to by the Btazilian nation. ought, Sire, to obliterate that pain which your Majesty declares to have felt in your Imperial heart, when your Majesty was com pelled to resort to the extraordinary warm considered necessary lir the salvation of the empire on the 12th of November, 1823. The Senate is also equally penetrated as your Imperial Majesty with the conviction, that the existence of perfect harmony between t he two 110 us s,lind between these and the Government, is essenti ally necessary. in order to tffect the regular consolidation of the SnatitutionalSystem,erected on so magnificent a scale by your Im perial Majesty, who has thereby secured the perpetuity ofth it empire, of which your Majesty hie the immortal glory to be the triouler, and established the prosperity of the people and security ot the throne on solid and imperishable foundations. The Senate rejoices as much as your Imperial Majesty to find what tranquillity prevails throughout the empire, with the single exception of the Cisplatine Province—such tranquillity as Vaal Pala result in such extended tenitories from the paternal solicitude and ever-watchful care of your Imperial Majesty, losestablishing that gad order in the public administration. which ensure; the constant satisfaction and unalienable attach silent of all classes of society. It is exceedingly to be la vented this the national calm should be interrupted through Cie insubordination and perfidy of a few seditious and turbulent characters in that province ; who, regardless of the oaths of fidelity they have taken, and holding in contempt the repeated acts eg incorporation with the empire spontaneously entered into by the people and the constituted authorities, have been hurried on by titer passions to lead their countrymen astray—thus adding treason to ingratitude, by *fluffing the munificence of your Imperial Ma jests., which had loaded them with especial favour and the most honours, independent of the political benefits derived to their country. by having been rescued, under the auspices of your Imperial Majesty (as their tutelar deity), from the fury and alesolation of anarchists. The Senate is persuaded that the national honour requires the exercise of all your Imperial Majesty's wisdom and energy in the struggle in watch your Majesty is engaged; and although forced imorne contest, contrary to your Majesty's natural disposition and pacific political system, it is necessary that your Imperial Majesty should maintain the rights of your Crown, and defend the Utopia- Ulf people, who have placed their lives and property under the protection of your Majes y. Mote Video joyfully accepted the • ettle of ••• Imperial City," which your Majesty was pleased to tofiour it with; therefore, it would not only be establishing the v.orst of precedents, but be productive of the most injurious con b..-quenovis if resistance was nut opposed to a nefarious cabal, and to the aggression of the Government of Buenos Ayer', which commenced hostilities without the least pmvocation, and without a:ty previous declaration of war. The Seratet relying on the steitte of the cause, and trusting in Divine Providence, feel con "'ldea your Majesty's arms will be crowned with success, and that hie valour of Brazilian eitirens, who have flocked from a ll: parts of the country to compose the naval and military forces of this in trepid t:ation, which has been no egregiously insulted by an unjust eretuy, in violation of the taws of nations, will teach that enemy bow to respect the inviolability of the soil, and integrity of the empire, of Brazil. The Senate congratulates your Imperial Majesty and the nation on the joyful tidings that the empire of Brazil, and the Imperial dignity in the s.:cred person of your Majesty, have been acknow ledged by your august father, his Most Matdttul Majesty Don John VI.; who, in this magnanimous resolution, animated the most convincing proof of his paternal love towards your Imperial • Majesty ; and proclaimed to the world, by the most satisfactory testimony. how justly he appreciated the incomparable merits of • your Majesty, and how worthy he deemed your Majesty to exer cise the supreme authority over this country. The gratification this intelligence gave rise to was soon heightened by the participa. Con of a similar acknowledgment having immediately followed on the part of the principal Powers of Europe, and which recogni tion the United States of North America had even anticipated. After this manner was made manifest the honourable opinion regular Governments, though differently constituted, had formed et the just and generous polities adopted by your Imperial 51a. jesty, which cannot but contribute greatly to enhance the conse quence, and promote the stability of the Constitutional System we have chosen, uniting In Welt', by the equilibriuto an 1 concert be tween the different powers of the State thereby established, all the advantages of better organized Sates, and reconciles the doctrines lifetime:l and sanctioned in both the old and the new world. The Senate is under the painful necessity of reviving the poig r aot grief occasioned by the receipt (attended by a remarkable coincidence) of the melancholy intelligence of your August Father having been summoned from this to a better life—whom I lod has rewarded for Isis Royal virtues by eternal glory. I'o present your imperial Majesty with our most heart-felt condolence on such a n.ournfol event is a woefnl duty ; but it was ordained in the in acrutable councils or Divine Providence. • Participating in the et:admen's of filial affliction which your Imperial Majesty felt, we perceived the violence of the struggle between grief and duty which agitated your Imperial bosom, and were conscious that it required the :Adoption of sonic extraordinary treasures. after so recent a conflict between Portugal and Brazil, order to tranquilize the minds of the inhabitant+ of both collo thes. yet pre-oecupied with national jealousies and mutual pre judices. Your Imperial Majesty, in your consummate wisdom and magnanimous mind, did not hesitate in displaying that wonderful zustance of disinterestedness (unparalleled, certainly, In history) which is the admiration of Brazil, and will become the wonted). t-.er.t of mankind—presenting an example of moderation triumph. tug over the allurements of ambition—the most diflicnlt to be sub dued of all the passions. The Senate pauses, not knowing in what appropriate terms to describe this miracle of the nineteenth century—the abdication of the Crown and Sovereignty of the Lusitanian Monarchy, which your Majesty has ceded in favour of the eldest of their Royal Highnesses your Majesty's most Serene daughters, the Prince's Donna Maria au Gloria, proclaiming her Roast Highness " Queen of Portugal." In this act your Impe rial Majesty at once consulted the happiness of the Portuguese nation and Inc honour of the August Dynasty of Braganza; at the same time that your Majesty realized the tacit hopes of the Brazilian people, by furniehiag them with the most irrefragable proofs of that pure and candid love your Imperial Majesty cherishes for Tour adopted country. This prudent measure has not only silenced, but put to con fusion those few discontented and malevolent persons who,notwith standing the existence of such proofs, and evidence of so many sserificea made by your Imperial Majesty for the benefit of Brazil, pretended to be incredulous and dubious as to its future destinies. This act of almost supernatttral heroism would be sufficient in itself to hand your Mojetsty's name down with glory and renown :to this latest posterity. Thus; your Majesty, outstripping all ex- Twist ions. published to the world that resolution which developed • the derisiveness and equanimity of your great character and the prin. ciples of your government, which are, to direct your attention to • the unfolding the inexhaustible sources of prosperity possessed by t i le em pi re of Brazils—to the providin g ; against all future difii. wines which_ Tight by possibility arise to the injury or tie.

The only subject of discussion in the French morning papers of Sunday is that of the decision of the Cour Royale, relative to the Denunciation of the Count de MoNTLoSIE R, which the Etude, it seems, had given in a very garbled form. We have only to refer on this subject to the letter of our Paris Correspondent. The following are a few extracts from these papers, u well as from the Eloik of Monday : [ From the Colestitalionnel of August 20.) . - Extract of a private letter from the Hague, dated August 12 : " It is reported here that the Countess Survilliers, wife of Joseph Bonaparte, and sister of the Queen of Sweden, Is gone to Antwerp, where her Majesty, on her way to the South of France, is expected every day to arrive. A Chamberlain of the Queen of Sweden, lately arrived from Brazil, whither he had gone charged with a mission from his Government to the Court of Rio Janeiro, and who is resident at Brussels, is also gone to Antwerp, it is supposed for the purpow a:joining her Majesty. It is not believed impossible that the return of the Count Survilliers from America, which has been prematurely announced by the Belgian journals, should coin cide with the journey of the two sisters, and that all three, coming from distant parts and different directions, should meet in that town."

" In this state of things a General Council has been convoked in the Palace, from which the decisions of the law should eniannte ; he august Viziers, the learned Ulemas, the Pedschals, t Ministers of State,) and the chiefs of the Janissaries themselves, were sum moned to it ; it was considered that the suppression of the Janissa ries, who were an ancient corps, had never been thought of ; that, however, they had long since been in the habit of sometimes obeying, and sometimes exciting sedition, as their caprice dictated; that they persisted in their ignorance; lowly, that the enemies. whose eyes were always upon us, seeing our position, had con ceived the idea of attacking us on all sides. '• The holy union of the laws having been convoked in the Coun cil, a noble Fetwa, the rmacation orthe light of fife law, and ac companied by a llodochet (legal document), signed by all the members of the Council, proclaimed the following decision : " a view to revive the word of God, and to render vain the stratagems by which the infidels have obtained their superiority, the Mttssulmans also, on their side, " 1. Shall arm themselves with the zeal of the faith, and shall submit to subordination. " 2. Shall learn the military exercise, which is the only means of resistance to be employed tinder present circumstances. " And, lastly, in order to obey the general wish and the public voice of the nation, the corps of Janissaries, without any change in its ancient statutes, and without any infringement of its privileges. shall furnish 1:i0 men from each company, to be incorporated with the new exercised troops; known by the name of ilmalor cskintlicf (disciplined infantry)." (The continuation to:morrow.) The following article of intelligence from Darmstadt is deserving of some attention, as it shows how soon those things are despised which men sometitnes hazard limb and life to acquire. Those who consider a Constitution as a panacea for all evils in politics will most certainly be de ceived. There are no general cures, as radical reform was said to be in times past, and the cancelling of the nationa► debt in times present : DARMSTADT, GRAND DUCIIT OF HESSE, ITG• 10. The following official article has been published here : " Much has been said in the public prints of the lukewarmness which the Electors and several Arrondissements of the Grand Duchy have shown in the exercise of their constitutional right of election. Some facts may have given cause for this accusation, but it is far from being so well founded in general ass has been pretended. The great majority of the Hessian people continue to be penetrated with the most lively gratitude towards their Sovereign, from whom they have received the benefit of a Reproentative Constitution adapted to the spirit of the times. If the first enthusiasm on this subject has here and there become cool, it is because people had conceived exaggerated hopes, so that the result of the two First As semblies of the States has not been able entirely to answer their expeetatious." The situation of Europe at the present moment is, perhaps, without a parallel in history. It can only be com pared to the period of the early legislators in Greece, when the diferent States began almost contemporaneously to imitate the example of Sparta, in establishing their sepa rate systems of organized liberty. Like Sparta in Greece, this country in Europe set the example of popular legisla lation, and showed by the stability of her Government the incalculable advantages of free institutions. The only point of difference in the two cases is, that the imperfect form of the Republic, in the former, has given place in the latter to the limited Monarchy—a form the best adapted of any for securing the liberty and tranquillity of a country. A Republic may exist in the midst of Republics, or at a distance from other Powers, like the United States of America; but the inaptitude of this form of Government for attack or defence must render it quite impracticable in the larger States of Europe. To pursue our parallel of Greece, going back a little to our school-boy lore, we shall find that the liberal feelings in many of the States took their first rise in the breasts of Monarchs or of Royal per sonages. It is needless to mention the various legislators of Sparta, Athens, &c., who all appear to have exerted them selves for the promotion of their country's freedom with a degree of enthusiasm which, a hundred years ago, would have seemed to the greater part of the world absolutely incomprehensible, but of which, in our own day, we have seen many illustrious examples; some of them not inferior to these of antiquity. The object of these remarks is to show that the efforts of all the friends of liberal princi p'es ought now to be directed to the propagation of those principles, with a view to their effect upon the minds of the Sovereigns themselves, instead of turning their atten- tion to the dark schemes of designing conspirators, or to useless and unstatesmanlike projects of carrying points by force which could be carried much more easily and effectually by mere address. An inclination to allow certain names and forms, for which politicians struggle much more frequently and bitterly than for any thing real and substantial, would probably enable the' friends of political freedom to effect most of their really beneficial objects with the consent and concurrence of those whom they now consider as irreclaimably opposed to such improvements. Such a disposition would at least re move one great obstacle to success; and we have no doubt that in the end everything desirable will he accomplished by the regular authorities, as at present constituted. The principles now at work throughout Europe are of an im perishable and growing nature; and a government which should act in opposition to them would be as sure to repent its conduct, as one which, like our own, conforms itself to the course of the stream, is sure to promote its own inte rests in promoting those of the nations around. It becomes the Ministers of England to avow the principles of Eng lishmen ; and Mr. CANNING would have been unworthy of the distinguished situation which he holds if he bad ease, it would commit an outrage against legitimacy in the person of Don PEDRO, and an insult to England in the person of her Ally. England did not dictate the Portuguese Char ter to Don l'Enao ; it was neither her duty nor her wish to do so; but she will support the dispositions of Don P1..1)K0 with all her might, unless he shall himself erase to enforce them. It is true, as some of our contemporiries I have lately asserted, that no sudden transformation will take place in the state of a cation in consequence of a Constitution ; and, no doubt, in many cases disappo!nt ments may take place similar to those mentioned in the article from Darmstadt, which we have given elsewhere; but, whatever may be supposed to be the coolness of many foreign nations on this subject, it is still a design worthy of England, and honourable to an English Statesman, to pro mote the cause of civil liberty throughout the world. We understand that a large gnantity of diamonds has been received by his Majesty's ship Briton, from Rio de Janeiro, as well as several large consignments of Brazil wood from Pernambuco, and 35,000/. in Bills of Exchange front Bahia, on account of the interest and sinking fund of the Brazilian Loan. We have received the Colonial Times, Hobart Town paper, to the 7th April inclusive, by the ship I,:•ng, Capt. Less, which sailed on the 11th. The hush-rangers appear to have been completely repressed. We subjoin the final state of the proceedings against Mr. BENT, the Editor of the Colonial Times, with the remarks which he has pub lished on the subject : SUPREME COURT, HOBART TOWN. WEDNESDAT. MARCH 29. Mr. Bent this day appeared to receive the judgment of the Court, in compliance with the notice we mentioned in our last to have received from Mr. Stephen. The acting Attorney-0:11ml (Hone) rose, and applied for the judgment of the Court upon Mr. Bent, upon the Ist, 2d, sth, and 19th counts of the second information upon which ho had been found guilty of printing and publishing. in September last. Cuter JUSTICE—AIr. Bent, hate you anything to move in arrest of judgment? Mt. Ross —No, your Honour. CRIEr JUSTICE—Mr. Andrew Bent, you are brough t up to re ceive the judgment of this Court, for printing and utb tithing three libels. It is not my Intention, at this time, to make any observe lions upon the law of libel, or as to the freedom of the press; this was done upon your trial by the Attorney-General, so clearly, so fully, and RO ably. that it would be useless my adding anything thereto. It cannot but be highly libellous to impute to any Govern ment a wilful system of mad-administration—that its acts are wicked and corrupt ; and such charges are evidently contained in the articles published by you. mentioned in the Ist, al, and 10th counts. M ith respect to the ith count, I must admit, that the bellous nature thereof is not so apparent—l admit that it is by no means plain ; but it went to the Jury, whether the expressions were used with the intention charged in the information, aed they found that they sere so. The words were, speaking of a public ap pointment "as a non-doscript job," and the Jury found that this was libellous. If libels upon the Government are considered higldy criminal in Engl•tod, how much more so must ell such be in a Colony constituted as is this, at such a distance from the Pa. rent State? 1 recollect that you urged in your defence, that you dad not compose any of these libels. I confess I can discover but a veer slight difference between the person who composes the poison, and he woo disseminates it. There is another observation, that in these libels general charges alone are made against the Govern ment. No particular instance of mad-administration is mentioned. Now if such charges were made against an individual, how could he meet them ? And how much more difficult would it be for a Government to do so? If you had stated particular facts and cir cumstances, those who were alluded to could either have replied, or the falsehood of the charge would have become apparent. This is not the case of u tingle libel, but of three, and the argument that you were not the composer of any of them is. as I have said, en. titled but to very little weight. I am bound, however, to take all the circumstances of the =ere into consideration, in the exercise of that discretion as to punishment, which rests, in cases such as the pre sent, with the Judge. I have done so, and the sentence of the Court is, that you be imprisoned fur three months, that you pay a tine to the King of two hundred pounds sterling, and that you enter I into recognizances for your good behaviour, yourself in two hun dred pounds, and two sureties in one hundred pounds each. 1 FROM OUR PARIS CORRESPONDENT. The Cour Royale held, with closed doors, a general au sembly of the Chambers, for the purpose of taking Mi n consideration the flenonciation of the Count de Montlosier; die third Civil Chamber, the Court of Aesivs, an d t h e Appeal Chamber of the Correctional Police, having all ter. minated or suspended their sittings at eleven o'clock. All the Magistrates in Paris, to the number of fifty-four, were collected together in the hall of the First Chamber, under the presidency of M. Segmier. M. Jacquinot Pempelune Attorney-General, was present at the meeting, which lart ee i from eleven till near four o'clock. The sitting of dm Fist Civil Chamber did not take place ; all the catista were postponed fur a week. M. Cazales, who has been lately ap. pointed Judge of the Tribunal of Protins, was to Lars taken the necessary oaths, but this solemnity was also de ferred. A great multitude of the curious were collected i n the vicinity of the Chamber, and waited with impatience the breaking up of the Assembly, hoping to discover from the countenanct s or conversation of the Members the re sult of their deliberations. The following is the judg ment of the Court, carried by a majority of two-thirds " The Court having heard several of the Membersrelatire to the facts contained in a writing entitled Draorsciation, &c., signed by the Count de Montlosier, and addressed to all and each of the Members of the Court; having b ea m also, on the other side, the arguments of the King's Attot. ney-General, maintaining that there is no ground fora de. liberation; taking into consideration the decrees of the Parliament of Paris, of the 9th of May, 1760 ; the similar decrees of the other Parliaments of the Kingdom ; the ether of Louis XV. dated November, 1761 ; the edict of Louis XVI. in the month of May, 1777 ; the law of the lath August, 1792 ;•—ttking into consideration also, that it re. sults :roin the above-cited decrees and edicts, that the actual state of our legislation is formally opposed to the re-establishment of the Society of Jesus, under whatever de nomination it may present itself; that those decrees and edicts are all founded on the acknowledged incompatibility between the principles professed by the above-mentioned Society and the independence of Government—principles still more incompatible with the Constitutional Charter, which, at the present day, constitutes the public right of Frenchmen ; but at the same time considering that, from the same legislation, it belongs especially to the higher exe cutive authorities of the kingdom to suppress and dissolve all congregations, associations, or other establishments of this sort, which are or may be formed in contravention of the existing laws, edicts, and decr:es ; and, with respect to the other facts contained in the publication of the Count de Montlosier, considering that, whatever may be their im portance, they do not at present constitute any crime, milt demeanour, or offence, the prosecution of which belongs to the Court ; the Court declares itself incompetent." It is said that only seven Counsellors voted for the corn. potency of the Court, and that seventeen voted for a simple declaration of incompetency, without any de liberation. It is also said that one of those Members who spoke in favour of the Jesuits presented a paper to the Court, purporting to contain all the engagements formed by the novice at his entrance into the Order. This paper contained nothing, in fact, but a form of dedication to the service of the Virgin Mary. One journal (Le Spec : Wes? des Tribuncress) adds, that the Court resolved to pre isne n t ot considerationa an d Thus has tenninkted the Denunciation of the Count dedresstoththeefaKctsing;oniwtaainyeircilginhitsheMDajeesnutynctoiataiokne. Montlosier, and he could not have expected a more success ful issue. The opinions of the assembled Bars of Bourges and Limoges are now supported by that of the Cour Royale at Paris. It is declared by the highest authority that the existence of the Society of Jesus is incompatible with an independent Government, and prohibited by the laws of France. As to the absurdity pointed out by some of the London Papers, of founding a leg‘,.. process on such vague indication of facts as is contained in the Denunds tion of M.de Montlosier, it was never dreamt of here. The Count de Montlosier has brought down on the Jesuits a declaration of their illegality—no small triumph, and all perhaps that he ever aspired to. The detestation with which the Parisians regard the Jesuits is signalized by the enthusiasm with which they hear the comedy of the Tli &fr. " The Tarlafe," says a lively Parisian critic, " is the comedy a-la-mode. It is the newest piece we have. In spite of literary chroniclers, Poquelin deMuliere is our con temporary. Do we not recognise in Tartu/e, in Organ, aed in Madame Pernelk people of our own acquaintance? The illusion is complete. One thing is certain, that for some years back this masterpiece has been received with increasing favour. The actors, too, play their parts with 1 truth of expression which attests their imitation of living nature. Ir was not merely a hypocrite that Moliere to paint. His hypocrite belongs to a certain Order ; be is one of those heroes (the Jesuits) who figure in the provin cial letters. People of that sort are not easily mistaken. Tarlife is, in fact, a Jesuit in a laic dress, or what would be called now-a-days a Congregationist. This is undoubtedly the reason why this masterpiece is so perfectly undirstoe4l at present. Befere they talked in France of Jesuits and Congregations, the public could hardly form a just idea of this sort of character ; but, now that we are well acquaint ed with the reality, we are qullificd to appreciate the mans of the comedy.
