REVOLUTION IN PORTUGAL. IMPORTANT DOCUMENT. REPRESENTATION OF THE REGENCY OF LISBON TO THE PROVISIONAL JUNTA ESTABLISHED AT OPORTO. The Govertiors of the Kingdom to the Junta which fortuea itself in the City of Oporto, and which calls itself the Supreme Junta of the Kingdom. . . The Governors of the Kingdom, considering that the most sacred right intrusted to them by our august Sovereign is that of maintaining peace between the inhabitants of the kingdom, and pre serving untouched the unity of the Crown, top.;e ther,with the independence of the Monarchy, have put in force the extraordinary powers reposed in them by the King for urgent occasions; and,act ing as interpreters of his paternal sentiments, have resolved in his Royal name to convoke the Cortes, which are to assemble. This is the day in which letters are despatched to all the Corporations of the kingdom, inviting them to proceed to the election of Representa tives, conformably to the usages and customs of the nation. Let this, therefore, be the auspi cious day of concord for all who have the hearts of Portpguese. The Governors of the kingdom comprehend in their pure desires, in their well founded hopes, the very Junta which has been established in the city of Oporto, and do not hesitate to address to it, as well as to all the other classes and individuals of the nation, the words of reconciliation. Let our hearts bury in perpetual oblivion the memory of recriminations and errors which have been committed either vo luntarily or by inadvertence, and let them begin a new era of harmony and mutual confidence, by means of the ties that shall be formed between the Sovereign and the Representatives of the nation, 'legitimately assembled in the Royal name. Penetrated with these sentiments, the Go vernors of the Kingdom cannot cease to repeat the wish which they have solemnly announced, declaring that the Portuguese of all classes, who listened to the voice of the Government of Oporto, and joined it for a short time against the legiti mate Government of the kingdom, need dread neither hatred, nor vengeance, nor punishment, on account of the late political events. On receiving the first intelligence of the events of the 24th of August from the city of Oporto, the Governors of the Kingdom could not but characterise with severity the conduct of the mili tary, who burst the bands of discipline, and of a Junta, who, being self-elected, and without observing the appearance of legal rights—with out power emanating from the King, or any ac knowledged mission from the People—entitled itself the Supreme Government, and "arrogated the right of convoking the Cortes. But, at the same time that the Governors of the. Kingdom censured as they deserved acts so illegal and imprudent, they never ceased to admit that the greater part, and,perhaps even the whole, of the individuals who so compromised themselves, might be excited to such conduct by too great an ex altation of sentiments otherwise pure, or by insi dious foreign intrigues, of which they were ig norant. On this account the Government form ed the only resolution which could save the country from the horrors of a civil war, and con voked the Cortes, which receive from the Re presentatives of the Sovereign a character of le gality which those Cortes never could have which were announced by the Junta of Oporto. You are Portuguese ; and this glorious title which belongs to you is sufficient to assure us that neither falsehood nor dissimulation have fogad a place in your breast. Be therefore faith ful to your own declarations, and consistent with yourselves. You proclaimed your attachment to the Holy Catholic Religion—we all have it en graved on our hearts. You proclaimed your loyalty to the august Sovereign who reigns over us—and the whole of tile nation acknowledges his dynasty, and stands firm in its obedience. As to the Cortes, they are already convoked in the name of the Sovereign ; as to the Constitution, the same convocation secures one founded in the ancient laws of this Monarchy—laws which go verned our forefathers in the days of their pros perity, in the epoch of their triumphs. If, then, what you have openly proclaimed be what you sincerely desired, your wishes are already ac complished ; and nothing remains for you now, but that, divesting yourselves of an authority which you have hitherto exercised without any legal title, and which from this moment you must 'exercise without any reasonable pretext, you should give to the world and to posterity a pub • l'c proof that in your past conduct you have neither been actuated by passion nor ambition ; that your declarations have been sincere, and ; that you do not desire to expose the kingdom to the danger which must result from tile prolonga tion of a contest between its provinces, nor to open the way for foreign Powers to attack our independence in the midst of our divisions, which they have always respected when they saw us united. Consider that there is no time to lose—we are on the brink of a precipice. Already citizens are armed against citizens—already the Com manders of the troops who are subject to you threaten our cities and our towns with the loss of their rights and privileges for their opposition to their views; they menace the officers and soldiers who refuse to join them in the trial and the pu nishment of traitors! One step farther, and we • are plunged into civil war—bathed in the blood of our brothers— and threatened with a series of Revolutions which can terminate only in the dis, solution of the monarchy. To you, and to you alone, will be attributable such mighty calamities ; on your head will press to the most remote posterity such an enormous responsibility, if you listen not now to the voice which is addressed to you by the Governors of the kingdom. They have no other ambition but ' that of saving the nation and securing the public felicity ; nor will they refuse to receive any re presentations which may lead to such an impor taut, such a desirable object : and they hope that Providence, seconding their effort, will hasten the happy day—a day most earnestly prayed for by them—in which they may be able to surren der into the Royal hands of our Sovereign the sacred and important deposit with which they are intrusted.

The Association reserves to itself the faculty of increasing according to circumstances the list of articles enu merated under No. 2, which are to be purchased of home manufacture only. The Stutgard Gazette has the following no tice :—" The Courier Francois of 7th Sept. has the following article, dated Stutgard We know from persons who accompanied our King to Genoa, that wherever his Majesty appeared in public, he was received by the people by acclamations. Since the late events, the throirg of the Genoese about the King in creased, and every day the cry of Viva it Re Constitutionale became louder.' " We are authorised to declare, that all the statements in this Article are entirely groundless and fabricated. The strict incognito which the King observed on account of his health was re spected by the public. His Majesty was no, where and at no time received with public accla mations ; nor did he shorten the period of his stay there, but remained till he had taken the number of baths prescribed to him." DEPUTATION OF TIIE LIVERY. After the Election of LORD MAYOR yesterday, a Requisition was drawn up, and numerously signed, requesting the Loan MAYOR to convene a Common Hall, to take the sense of the Livery upon the conduct of his Lordship, in endeavour ing to overawe the deliberations of aformer Com mon Hall, by introducing the military into the vicinity of the City ; and also in abruptly dis solving the Hall this day ; and a Deputation was appointed to immediately present it to his Lord ship. The LORD MAYOR, about five o'clock, receiv ed the deputation, consisting of about 30 gentle men, in the Council Chamber, when he was at tended by the officers, and several of the Al dermen. Mr. GALLOWAY stated that the purpose of their visit was to request his Lordship to grant the object of the requisitionists. The LORD MAYOR, at some length, defended his conduct in introducing the military, saying, that it was his duty to preserve the peace of the Metropolis, and that he should do it by such means as his judgment dictated. Mr. TIPPER remarked, that the object of the deputation was not to discuss the question, but merely to know his Lordship's determination ; and that, however he might individually consider the procedure unconstitutional and improper, he should leave its consideration to the Common Hall. The LORD MAYOR repeated his opinion upon that subject, and further added, that had he known the purport of Mr. Galloway's motion, he should certainly have permitted it to be discussed by the Livery. . _ After some farther observations by Mr. Stevens, Mr. Pearson, and Mr. Tipper, His Lordship finally appointed Monday, at 12 o'clock, to answer whether he would call the Hall; and a deputation agreed to wait upon him to know his pleasure. CIIILD STEALING.—A boy, three years and a half old, son of Mrs. Delare, of Little Pulteney street, was decoyed away from the door of his parents on Thursday morning, by an elderly woman of decent appearance, who was seen with him in Berwick-street. The afflicted mother had him cried, and used other means, but her agitated feelings were not relieved until eleven o'clock at night, when the child was brought home, Wing been found, covered with a piece of rug, crying in Dean -street. His clothes could only have fetched a few shillings. The child was taken to a room and stripped by the unfeeling wretch ; he had bread and treacle and apples, as he stat ed,,given 'to him. FOIL TIIE stltc. IRON MOULDINGS. MR. EDITOR—It appears that the great ex pence in building at the -present time is in the finer parts of the . carpenters' wgrk,—namely, , mouldittes -fpr doomkwindows,, and 'the skirtings of rdoffiS,—:iBhas•therettat 3`een- sitygNed s that CAST-IRON MOULDINGS would form an excellent substitute for wood, at a considerable less ex pence. Cast-Iron frames for windows, and for the rails of staircases, are in use ; but as country carpenters in general do not know where they are to be obtained, the Iron Masters should give notice of it in some of the London Papers. If this idea is carried into effect, it will extend the consumption of NATIVE IRON, and induce many persons to'build, who are now deterred from it by the great charge of carpenters' work. These Mouldings can easily be cast to any pattern, ac cording to the style of architecture to be used for the building. The Iron Masters should pub lish a tariff, with the sizes, strengths, and prices, and the use of Cast-Iron for these purposes would soon become general,—it will be a double saving in money and time. In ornamental cot tages they might be introduced with great faci lity and advantage. As I perceive, from your excellent and impartial Paper, that you readily insert useful suggestions on all subjects, literary and scientific, I will thank you to permit these observations to appear in it.

Mr. THELWALL calls ALDERMAN `MOOD a cc Noble of Heaven's own, appointment"—that must be a step above a Baron of Her MAJESTY'S appointment. It reminds us, however, of an Hibernian anecdote : . Mrs. 0 'DEMPSEY, of Monasterevan, had a grown up daughter, some years ago, when military uni forms, as Ladies' riding habits ) were quite the tippy in " Green Erin." Miss O ' DEMPSEY walked down stairs one morning in military costume, with a pair of dash ing epaulets, when Mamma exclaimed—" There you are ! all in red scarlet, with a pair of bullets on your showlders, and much they become you." " Sure ! Mother," said Miss OTEMPSEY, CC and can't you let me alone ! a'nt 1 as G made me ?" " Troth ! you are my dear," replied Mamma, " and a pretty Devil he has made of ; you !" A few evenings ago, at Brandyburgh House, when all the little wits were assembled, enlivened by " not absolute wisdom," and " all that human wit can devise," Heaven's own Noble, Baron and Alderman Brandyburgh, was lament ing that his Loyalty to her MAJESTY had set all the I'Venal Press against him—concluding his la mentation with a quotation from SHAKESPEARE— for the Devil is said sometimes .to quote Scrip ture—" This is the Head and Front of my of fending" " No ! no ! Good Mr. Alderman, mon Cceztr— mon ange—mon tres cher ami"—replied his Pa troness, " not quite so bad neither. You have a Front certainly—but you have " no Head !" I. G. N.
