CITY, HALF-PAST ONE. EXPRESS FROM PORTSMOUTH. "LNCH NAVAL FORCE AT THE BRAZILS. You have done well not to yield implicit cre- 1 , 4e nce to the declaration either of the French Go vernment or of the Journal des Dc':bats.—The dr ench force at the Brazils is now ascertained, af ter all their denials, to consist of Four Frigates, ? '4 ree Corvettes, and One Brig. This intelligence it' brought by the Eagle, South Sea whaler, Capt.

For this proceeding he was cited into the. KING'S presence, who,. before all the Foreign Ambassadors f whom he had. collected in the audience chamber to witness the proceeding, reprehended him in the most forcible manner for his intemperate conduct, and daring contempt of the Royal au- The Pitt N-ct, it is said, was wholly . overcome by the address of his father, and fell at his feet, acknowledging his guilt, and soliciting his pardon. The Km , however, gave orders that both the Patrick and the QUEEN should retire to one of the Royal Palaces, ten miles ,from Lisbon, in a species of honourable im prisonment ; and that _Count PALMELLA should be immediately set at liberty. his MAJESTY took the precaution, - it is said, before resort ing. to a measure which required in him a most extraordinary exertion of firmness, to ap peal for support to -some of the principal of ficers of the army, who did not fail him i❑ the difficult emergency in which he was plaeed.- 1 The consequence of these events had been, the plaCing Lord Batteseoan, by whose advice the KING is supposed to have acted throughout the whole proceeding, in a situation of high favour and nscendancy in his councils, which was of course accompanied by a correspondent de cline in the influence of the French Minister, by whom the violent conduct of the QUEEN and the Prince was believed to be secretly supported. No interruption .to the public tranquillity took place in consequence of the order for the re moval of the QUEEN and her son from Lisbon ; indeed, the whole affair is understood to have passed so quietly as to escape the notice of the - great bulk of the population of the capital: The next packet expected, which is the Sth hmer, and which has probably beers kept out by contrary winds, will no doubt bring more detailed accounts of these proceedings. It is not very easy in ordinary civil dispensations to calculate upon the events of to-morrow from those of to-day ; and in the case of such a state as Portugal, and with such actors, .the powers of prediction are wholly paralized. It may, however, be presumed for the present, that the English party, in spite of the intrigues of - the French Minister, has once more gained the ascendency at the Court of Lisbon. thoritv. The French are so much in the habit of giving the title of " My Lord" to every En Tishman, that the letter from Paris yesterday, announcing the passage of an Extraordinary Courier from Madrid through Paris, with dispatches for the English Government, conferred the dignity of that title on Mr. ELLIOTT, who, instead of" Lord" ELLIOTT, has arrived at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, with the ultiwalum of the Spanish Government o❑ the South American question, as stated yesterday by our City Correspondent. Our Contemporaries thought fit to ridicule the intelligence given in a Second Edition of THE SUN of Friday last, of the departure of the Ex- Emperor ITURBIDU for. Mexico. No little dis may, however, has been produced amongst these Gentlemen by the certainty of the fact having at length been ascertained even to their own satis faction. It is true that the Ex-Emperor himself, in a letter which we subjoin, asserts that be goes out to support the cause of Inde pendence. It may be so ; but until his actions, or some better evidence than his own allegations, prove the contrary, we shall con tinue to rely on the accuracy of our own information, which represents his expedition as having been concerted with and sanctioned by the Spanish Government. The very publication of ITURDIDE'S letter is so suspicious a circum stance as to strengthen our belief that he has really gone out in the character of a Spanish Agent ; for it is scarcely to be supposed that he would by a public annunciation apprize the Cabinet of Madrid of his destination and views, (if his views were indeed hostile to Spain), and thus unnecessarily expose himself to the in creased risk of capture during his voyage. Pre viously to his departure from England, he fixed six of his children, two boys and four girls, at boarding schools in different parts of the country. The following is the letter declaratory of his ostensible views in re-visiting Mexico : 44 My dear Sir,—lt is probable, that as soon as my depar ture is known, different opinions may be expressed, and th at s ome of them may be falsely coloured. I wish, theref ore , that von should know the truth in an authentic manner. 44 IV a misfortune that is much to be deplored, the principal provinces of Mexico are at this moment disunited : all those of Guatirnala, New Galicia, Oyaca, Yacatecas, Queretro, and others, sufficiently attest this fact. Such a state of things exposes the independence of the country to extreme peril. Should she lose it, she must live for ages to come in frightful slavery. " My return has been solicited by different parts of the coun try, which consider me necessary to the establishment of un animity there, and to the consolidation of the Government. I do not presume to form such an opinion of myself; but as I am assured that it is in my power to contribute in a great degree to the amalgamation of the separate interests of the provinces, and to tranquillize in part those angry passions which are sure , . to lead to the most disastrous anarchy,• I go with sudran ob- 1 ject before me, uninfluenced by any other •ambition than the glory of effecting fhelappiness of my countrymen, and of dis charging those obligations which 1 owe to the land of. my birth —obligations which have received additional force from the event of her independence. When I abdicated the crown of Mexico, I did so with pleasure, and my -sentiments remain unchanged. , . de sire, Mexico will soon present a Government consolidated, and " If "succeed in realizing my plan to the extent which I a peOple acting.upon one opinion, and co-operating in the same p rese nt Government continued, wo u ld f a ll on ly .upon a few ; object. They will all recognize chose burdens. which, if the and the mining and commercial transactions of the-country will assume an energy and a firmness of which they are now depriied. . " I have no doubt that the English nation, which knows how to think, situation of Mexico: s statement the probable poli ticalwill easily infer from this 44 I conclude with again recommending to your Attention my children, in my separation from whom will be, seen an addi tional proof. of the real sentiments which animate the heart of your sincere friend, " AUGUSTIN DE YTURBIDE: T o Michael JosePh Quin, Esq., Gray's-inn." Some Opposition Writers seem to think that they have reasonable grounds. of censure against Mr. CANNING, because he has delayed a recog,,- niacin of the Independenc e of the South Ame rican Colonies, by the British Government. But is the tune come, and are the conditions fulfilled under which the recognition was to take place ? The Opposition Writers say, yes—but common sense and public recollection say the' contrary. Spain has, according ,tp report, positively re fused to acknowledge the independenCe of its former,and, we hope, its irrecoverable, possessions in South America, and is understood to be on the eve of making one desperate effort to obtain what the march of truth, of knowledge, and a sense of popular rights, preClude her from all reasonable chance of ever regaining. According to the De claration of Mr. CANNING, FERDINAND was to be allowed to make this desperate attempt by her own power, but not by the means of foreign as sistance. The trial has not yet been made, and we may be sure that the Right Ho nourable Secretary will keep a vigilant welch over the conduct of Spain, and never suffer Spa nish arms or Spanish intrigues to contravene the principles which have been so decidedly avowed respecting the views of Great Britain on the sub ject in question. Since the accession of Mr. CANNING to the Government of this Country, the present is deemed the most popular adminis tration altogether that the country has possessed for the full space of forty years.

The Mantle foundered in the Atlantic the 15th of April on a voyage to 31irarnichi. Capt. COULTUARD and his crew took to their long boat, and got on board the Hebe, of South Shields, outward-bound, and subse quently removed to the fes,..bound to Rotterdam: We received last night the Austrian Observer of the 3th inst: It contains nothing but a long and boastful account of the magnitude of the pre parations of its friends the Turks fora new invasion of the Morea : of their patience and equanimity in ad versity; and of the pow , erfu t assistancewhich their new Commander in Chief, the Paella of Egy pt, was to give them, though h e did not mean to act in person himself, but had resigned the command to his son I brahim. Yet after presenting the most favourable view of the state of the Ottoman fleet, army, and affairs, and contrasting it with an exaggerated picture of the divisions said to exist amongst the G reeks, it concludes by say i n g that 44 it would b e presumptuous t o think of determining the future fortunes or the issue of the struggle."

That once a year bade all his griefs depart, And May's sweet morn wou ld doubly cheer his heart ! Wasli'd was his little form, his shirt was clean, On that one day his real face was seen ; His shoeless feet now boasted pumps, and new; His brush and shovel gaily held to view ; The table spread his ev'ry sense was charmq, And ev'ry savoury smell his bosom wsrm'd ; His light heart joy'd to see such goodly cheer,. And much he long'd to taste the smiling beer; Hunger allay'd—the scene was little heav'n ! If riches thus can bless—what blessings might be given ? But she is gone—none now will soothe his grief, Or once a year bestow their meed of beef ! Now forth he's dragg'd to join the begging dance, With heavy heart he makes a slow advance, Loudly to clamour for that tyrant's good, Who gives with scanty hand his daily food !
