The following Royal decree relative to British woollens has been published at Lisbon :-- " The Cortes having taken into consideration the Govern ment communication transmitted by the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, under the date of the 28th of December, 1822, on the observance of the 15th artide of the treaty of the 19th of February, 1810, touching the duties of 15 per cent. on British woollens; and it having been resolved, on the 21st of February of the present year, that wherever decrees might have passed relative to the said treaty anterior to the making oath to the Constitution Ethe existing Government was authorized to sus pend their operation, during the negociation'with the Govern ment of his Britannic Majesty of a new treaty, pursuant to what may appear more contarroabltt and consistent with the re ciprocal interests and paitlcitillar' considerations which ought td subsist between Powers which have a t a ll t i mes b ee n friends and allies, inasmuch as that, since the taking of the above oath it belongs to the Government to direct political and commercial negociations, as well as to conclude treaties with foreign Powers, the Cortes having only to approve them ; 1 have thought fit that the before-mentioned British woollens which may be imported into this kingdom shall, until the conclu sion_ of the treaty which is negociatin g w i t h t h e Govern ment of his Britannic Majesty, pay as an import duty only 15 per cent., suspending in this case the op erat i on o f t h e d e . cree of the 14th of July, 1821. The authorities within whose jurisdiction this decree comes are required to superintend its execution. " Signed by the Sign Manual. (Countersigned) " SEBASTIAN JOSE CARAVALHO.

The. following article has appeared In some country Journals:- 4 , We are informed that the following Petition to the House of Lords is now in course of signature by the Clergy through. out the Archdeaeonry of Sarum " To the Right Hon. the Lords Spiritual and Tem. Moral in Parliament assembled, The Petition of the Archdeaconry of Sarum humbly sheweth— • " That in consequence of the repeated, and as it should seem, never to be exhausted importunities of the Members of what is called the Roman Catholic Church In these kingdoms—We, his 31ajesty's most devoted and loyal su bj ects , t h e accredited Mini sters of the established Church of England, feel ourselves imperi. ously called upon by the duty which we owe to that Church to re new with all becoming respett, our humble Petition to your Hon. House. Without presuming to interfere with political concerns, of which, perhapS, we may be not altogether competent judges, we consider ourselves nevertheless to be fully . warranted by the awful responsibility of our profession, aspersions more im mediately charged with • the pre servat i on of t h e aposto li ca l F a i th in this country, to enter our most solemn Protest, so far, at least, as we may be permitted so to do, against any concessions being made to the Members of the Church of Rom* which, in their effort, may eventually t en d to bring that l• aith into danger. Cansidering that, among men of principle, no compromise can take place between Truth and Error, the ascendancy of the Church of England and that of the Church of Rome, can never co -exist in the same country.... For, it is presumed, there can be n o one , to l era bl y acqua i nted with the history of the Church of Rome, but must know, that the moat established and prevailing principles of that corrupt Church, from the day of her first encroachment on the temporal power, have been, what they still continue to be, those of Do minion and Intolerence. Whilst dear-bought experience has abundantly proved,that no Civil Securities, in the day of Romish Power, have ever been found strong enough to stand their p d re id sen w t ground against the thundering Bulls of the Vatican, and what may, in such case, unfortunately be deemed the conscientious oeiz,nocomnniseheteptirile: discharge of ecclesiastical obedience. With these subjects be ealneoemt express our t o 'o u r e e T o u o us, t we serious shoul should apprehension . less t a n ooufr duty , the they necessarily must be with those consequences, which cannot crease of Popish Semiipiaroriseesiyitinngtheips spirit t ngd of fail to ensue from the hoed, let loose upon the uninformed population of this Protest ant Country ; a circumstance eXpressty calculated to train up a succession of inveterate enemies to our envied Establishment. But when, moreover, we have been constrained to hear, as we lately have been, the licentious language of some of the Romish Clergy, (on the pre s u m ption, it may be supo ose d z of approach . ing Indulgencies) setting at nought the very existence of our National Church, and boldly denying the validity of her Orders —it requires surely no spirit of prophecy to inform us, that Power only is wanting to carry these unwarrantable assumptions into practical effect. With •the preceding considerations deeply impressed on our minds, we humbl y trus t that your Lord ships' determined, anti, if it may b e , unan i mous decision u p on the subject now about to be brought before you, will effectually do away the entertainment of all further hope of success upon it ; and there by prevent two Powers, which, from their decidedly discordant principles, can never be in unison, from hieing brought, at any future period, into fearful collision. " Looking up, therefore, to your Lordship, as the hereditary guardian of our excellent Constitution, we flatter ourselves; and not without some degree of confidence, that the effectual secu rity of the Protestant succession, the undivided establishment of our Church, together with the unequivocal presevration of the true Faith among us, will continue to constitute, what they have long been, paramount considerations in, your Lordahips' minds ; to the end tat the blood of our venerable Reformers may not have been shed in vain ; And the. Church of. this 'fa: voured nation may still retain her distinguishing and Well. Learned title of being' The Eye of the Reformation.) • 1.• t t .4 And your Petitioners, &c." • - SUN.

Neglecting to do tbis, or con cealing or altering such a declaration, subjects the offender to a penalty of 2001. for every offence. 20th. This Act is to take eilict on July 5, 1823. SHERIFF'S COURT, SURREY. PALMER ESQ. V 4 BULL. Yesterday a writ of inquiry wai executed before the Under. Sheriff' and a Jury of the County of Surrey, for the purpose of assessing the damages in en action brought by Mr. I yshe Pal mer, Member for Reading, against Captain Nicholas B. Bull, formerly commander of the King cif the Netherlands, steam packet, for a libel published by trim in the Jahn Bull news paper of the 18th of August, 10'22, and in which action the de fendant had suffered judgment to go by default. T e plain tift 9 a damages were laid at 211 W. Mr. Citsuus PIIILLIPI was Counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. ALLEY for the defendant. The former stated the case, the particulars of which were long since known to the . public, and therefore need not be repeated on this occasion. It is mere ly necessary to observe that the libel consisted of words im puted to Mr. Palmer who was accused of having expressed great satisfaction at the lamentable death of the late Lord Castle reagh, and proposing to have a" jollification" dinner on the occa. sloe. Mr. Phillips sUbstantiated the falsehood of the libel by the testimony of several respectable witnesses, who declared that they did not hear the words imputed to the plaintiff, which they . must have donelif uttered by him. Mr. Alley made an inA gemous defence, grounding it chiefly on the absence of Dr. Alit ford, to whom the words in question were said to have been ad dressed. It appeared,however,that a subpien a had been sent by the plaintiff to the Dr. but too late, as that Gentleman was obliged to attend the General Quarter Sessions at Newbury, being Chairman of the Committee of Accounts, and having other matters of great importance to attend to connected with the county. The Usrptit-Simnirr summed up the evidence, and left it to the Jury to consider their verdict. The Foreman of the Jury said, that he wished to know, be , fore the room was cleared for the Jury to deliberate, whether they could give greater damages than those laid in the declara tion. lie might be asked the question by his brother Jury men ; and if he were, he should not know how to answer it. The UstnEa-Susitire said, that it was a very proper ques tion to be asked. He shoidd state, in reply, that greater da mages could not be given than those mentioned in the declara tion. The Jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict for the plaintiff.—Damages 2001. It Is stated that " the Jury expressed their regret that they were not allowed to give more." LONDON SESSIONS. Yesterday these Sessions commenced before the Loan May on, the RKCOUDEIt, Aldermen Sir C. FLOWER, AT. PINS, COX, and WAITIIMAN. JatneS h urley was charged as having subjected himself to the operation of the new Act, for the punishment of rogues ana vagabonds. The prisoner was found in thebouse of Mr. Alderman Lucas, with a large empty basket in one hand, and some bad quills in the other. lie had walked deliberately to the drawing.room, and would probably have cleared the sideboatd of the plate which lay to the value of a considerable sum upon it, had not one of the servants seized Win; upon which he offered to sell his quills. The COUNT in passing sentence observed, that a great mum. ber of robberies had lately been committed by persons who acted upon the above plan, against which those, the doors of whose houses were frequently open, should be particularly on their ' guard. On all occasions of .the kind to which the attention of the Court was drawn, the rigour of the law should be exercised. The prisoner was sentenced to imprisonment for three months in the House of Correction as a rogue and vagabond.

PRICE SEVENPENCE. AMEItICA. CUBA.---Mr. CANNING, unasked, writes& letter to the British Minister at Washington, stating that it is not the intention of Great Britain to avail herself of the troubles in Spain by seizing on Cuba and orders this letter to be read to our Government, but no copy given of it. H'e , don't believe what he says. We have reason to suspect that the British intend possessin4 themselves of Cuba:" peaceably if they can, or forcibly if they must." That Island, indepen dent of its great value, will command the Gulf of Mexico; it almost touches our soil. We have, then, the British behind us in Canada, on our left in Nova Scotia, and facing us in Bermuda, and probably in Cuba. 'We shall be hemmed in and surrounded if they obtain that impor , taut Island ; it must be prevented. The Spa. , niards in Cuba, who cannot reconcile them.; selves to the dominion of the British Go vernment, had better declare themselves in dependent at once, and organise a strong govern.. meat of laws . wholesome and just, and means wilt be found to guarantee their independence to them, They inay expect co-operation from every inde pendent Government on this side the Atlantic, and the alternative is worthy of being embraced. We shall consider this matter more at length.---- (Nero York National Advertiser, March 1.) THOMAS B. TOOKER, late master of the Bri tish schooner Hibernia, has arrived at New York' in the ship Indian. Chief, He is the only sur vivor of the crew of the Hibernia, of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, which place be left on 27th of Oc tober last, and on the 29th, while lying to in a heavy gale, the vessel was thrown on her beam ends, when she was struck by a sea, and all that were on deck were swept off.— The rest, except himself and one man (who escaped from the cabin), perished below. The vessel immediately filled. Captain T. with a penknife cut the lanyards of the forerigging, when fortunately the mast went and the vessel partly righted.

The incendiaries in the counties of Cork and Limerick keep the country in a state of terrorand alarm. We read with pleasure, in the charge of Justice FL ETCIII.II., to the Grand Jury of the County of Donegal, that the reduction of the duty on spirits, and. the licensing small stills, are likely to put an end to illicit distillation, and the long train of crime of which it was the source. About two hundred Bills of Indictment were sent up to the Grlind Jury of the county of Mayo, at .the late Assizes at Castlebar, against persons charged with offences against the Revenue in the manufacture and sale of illicit spirits. Mr. Lasid s FOSTER end Mr. . PENT,. LAND, the Solicitor of Excise, attetttled on the pall of the Crown. The Gland Jury, however, ignored the whole of the Bills, anti thereby saved those Gentlemen the trouble of prosecuting, ati4 .the coutttr the expense of such a multitude of trials. 'I he Grated Jury , were, probably, in tluenced by prospect of the speech or sup• passion of the ounce alluded to in the charge of Mr. Justice Farcuzit at Lifford.
