I FINE ARTS. ILLUSTRATIONS TO BYRON, No. 24. LoNnorr, 1634. These illustrations, which, from fourteen, our have gradually and qui e tly c r ept on to twenty parts, are at length brought to a close. We are glad of this, for the work was becoming a very cumbersome affair ; and we were not without our suspicions that, like lianquo's progeny, th e , c line would stretch to the crack o' doom." The present number con tains two cleverly executed portraits of Rogers, " the eminent banker," as John Bull maliciously ; ails him, and Monk Lewis. The latter has a the not un li ke a turbot. The landscapes are Th()" of Missolonghi and Harrow Church-yard. w ,. 13 part i s accompanied by a bulky appendix, whi t s winds up the publication. LITERATURE. i re 2 VOLS. LONDON, 1834.

Here is a v ulgar aristocratical prejudice pressed into the s ervic e of utility, and made to point a fine moral. The character of Cleone, though highly Wr ought, is far from successful. There is too amb itious a desire of display in it ; it is too mu ch on stilts. Sidney Mountwarren is anoth er elaborate effort of the fancy, which we can ad hire' but cannot sympathize with.

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. VICE•CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. NORTHWICR, This was the petition of the relators to a charity created by an old maiden lady, named Clark, who gave the whole of her property after her death to certain legatees to trustees for the benefit of the resident curate of the parish of Pinner, near Harrow, and also for the relief of six poor persons who had not parish relief. Among the legacies given by the testatrix was one of 61. a-year to an old servant for the care and maintenance of a favourite parrot during its life, and one to a Mr. Clark, a relation of the testatrix. Under the information filed for the purpose of having a scheme for the regulation of the charity property, a reference was made to the Master to ascertain whether the legatees, the parrot, and Mr. Clark, were living or dead; the Master reported that they were both dead—(Laughter)—and the object of the present petition was the confirmation of the Master's report. His HONOUR made the order as prayed, observing that he thought the Court ought to have the burial certificate of the parrot.— (Laughter.) ' SIIIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY) FROM LLOYD'S.

The betting yesterday was at once brisk, heavy, and im portant. The principal favourites for the Derby were baeked at prices varying from those last quoted. The Bubastes party mustered in great force, laid out several hundred pounds, first at 13 to 2, and then at 6 to 1, and reinstated him first favou rite a full point before his south-country rival, whose decline was sufficiently indicated by the transactions of Monday. The Shelalahites were also in strength, nearly a thousand pounds having been " invested" at 10, 91, and 9 to 1, the latter being the closing price. Plenipo was backed once at 14 to 1 ; the last offer, however, did not exceed 12 to 1; Emigrant, Guar dian, Freedom, Harum Scarum, and Ntoodle were backed at the prices stated below, each of them having an improving look. There was not so much doing on the Oaks, and nothing worth alluding to beyond a slight falling off in Cotillon and a decided improvement in Lord Jersey's filly.

COLONIAL MARKETS.—(THIS DAY.) BRITISH PLANTATION SUGAR.—There is a steady market for Sugar this week, with a fair appearance, though without any great activity. Up to Friday last there were about 2,000 hhds. disposed of; fine Jamaicas are 595., middling 545. ; good strong working Sugars are becoming rather scarce.. FOREIGN SUGAR.—There have been no public sales since our last, and the dealings by private contract have been very limited. A small parcel of good White Havannahs has been done at 305.; 100 chests Brown Bahias at 225., and about 50 barrels of good White Pernams at 255. to 265. EAST INDIA SUGAR. —ln Mauritius there is not any altera tion to communicate ; only one public sale has been ofibred during the week, containing 4,318 bags, which went off at full prices, the refining qualities selling rather dearer, if any thing; soft low middling greyish yellow 525. to 555., and low middling brown 50s. to 51s. The market closed yes terday with firmness ; there are not more than about 20,000 bags at present in first hands, including the public sale of 6,000 bags coming forward this afternoon. Bengals meet with a ready sale at steady prices; 244 bags fetched 28s. 6d. to 295., for middling, and good sound white, and the damp, 265. 6d. to 28s.' The East India Company have declared 6,800 bags for their sale on the 11th April next. There is a demand for export, both for Manilla and Siam, but the market not being well supplied, added to holders being firm in their demands, and reluctant to sell at last week's prices, has checked business; about 1,000 bags of the first named have, however, been done at 235. 6d. No public sales have been offered. REFINED SUGAR.—The Market for this article remains with out animation, witltrather lower prices. Fine Crashed maybe had at 31s. 6d., at which some few parcels have been done : 31s. is offered freely. COFFEE.- The inquiry for British Plantation is dull : mid. Jamaica's have fetched 88s. to 89s. 6d.; and from good to low fine ord. 755. to 80s. The continental advices still being flat for foreign and East Indian Coffees, has caused the Market to be depressed, and very little has been done. 475 bags Brazil, and 236 bags Samarang and Batavia, have been brought for ward and partly sold. • Privately, Ceylons have been sold at 6d. per cwt. lower. The TEA sale has concluded, and in all about 2,000.0001b5. were refused, making the purchases this sale less than recol lected for a long time past. COCOA.—The price of Trinidad has risen Is. to 2s. per cwt. Brazil Cocoa is also in demand. Rum.—Though the prices are firm there is not much busi ness doing. Proof Leewards are at 9.5. 4d. per gallon. RlCE.—Bengal qualities have advanced 6d. per cwt. SALTPETRE. — There is no change in this market. CorroN is very heavy, with but little doing: . SPlCES. — Pepper is in sp.culatiVe . 'demand at a slight im provement. Cassia Lignea is lovier.: TALLOW.—The market keepS at 445. to 445. 3d. per cwt. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCIII9. —We have ha•l a very gOod demand for Cotton to.day, and the transactions are to the extent of fully 4,000 bags, chiefly American deNcriptions, at Sid. to 9d. for Boweits ; at 10,1. for New Orleans; and 9fra. for Bahias; at 10i -d. to 'Oil. for Maranham4; and at JOid. to 11d. per lb. for Pernawbucus.

In your paper this morning you admit that you were misinformed, but you substitute a new version of this story, stating that the la to which you made allusion was for 350,0001., and not for 300 0001., and that it was drawn by the government of the United States, and not by the Bank. We have no knowledge of any such bill having been draws upon us, and as agents both to the Gov, rnment and the Bank of the United States, we shall therefore be oblig-.1 by your giving insertion to this as a contradiction.

The bases of the agreement are, that the Sultan gives the island permission to covern itself, on paying an annual tribute of 500,000 piastres ; but, as the revenues of the island have been latterly much reduced, the Sultan wil not require the payment of the tribute for the first three years." Multacrt, MARCH 12 —An address, in answer to th , speech from the throne, was discussed yesterday, in a secret sitting of the Chamber of Deputies. The Upper Chamber also sat yesterday. The first public sitting of the Deputies will be on the 14th March. It is reported that, by his Majesty's wish, the plan of Charlemagne, fur forming a junction between the Darwin. ,nd the Rhine, will lie a subject of discussion for the assembly of the states this year. The plans fur this gigantic undertaking are already prep tred, by his Majesty's engineer, Baron Von Pechman.—Frankfort Papers, March 16. LISBON PAPERS. LISBON, MARCH. 2.—The health of his Imperial Ma jesty, the Duke of Bragarizs, is almost wholly restored. At five o'clock his Majesty received a telegraphic despatch from the line of the south, announcing that the enemy, to the number of 130 men, had been completely beaten it the . Rilvas. They had about 20 killed and wounded, and 11 were made prisoners. We had a soldier killed, and three wounded; one of them an aide-de-camp of his Majesty. MA twit s.—On the 4th of this month the battalion of Royalist Volunteers that occupied Aldea da Cruz was routed by the troops of the Queen. MARCH 7.—We have received the official account of the fortunate and brilliant affair in which the rebel force that occupied the Aldea da Cruz was annihilated. A considerable number of the enemy remained dead on the field. 31 prisoners and a quantity of aims and ammu nition remained in our hands. We bad not one man either k lied or wounded. MARCH 10.-We have no news of any important movement of our army of operations stationed at Santa rem. As soon as we receive any interesting communica tion, we shall hasten to lay it before the public.—Chro nica de Lisbon, March 10 (inclusive). PORTUGAL. (From the Private Correspondence of the Times.) LISBON, MARCH 5. Ally information respecting Captains Wakefield anti Burnley's promotion to the rank of Major of the Lancers has not been borne nut by subsequent events ; it seems that Don Pedro told Brigadier-General Bacon, in the in terview which he had with him on Saturday evening, that he intended to confer the above rank on those two officers, but so far from its having been so done, on the next 'warn ing, about 3 o'clock, A.M., he in one of his frolics, ordered Captain Burnley to be sent to the castle of St. Gorge merely for having obeyed an order of his commanding-officer, Brigadier-General Bacon, relative to some horses, and he was accordingly conveyed thither. The moment that this illezal act became known, the Brigadier-General and ail his British officers sent in their resignations, and actually abstained from appearing at the review of the 200 new Lancers and 800 Belgians, which took place on the 2d, at one o'clock. Don Pedro, most luckily for the success of the cause, found out that he had made a despotic and unjustifiable attempt against such an honourable and gallant officer as Captain Burnley, as well as the insult thereby offered to his commanding officer; and he immediately ordered the former to be re leased, and declined accepting the resignations tendered by Brigadier-General Bacon and his officers. Let us hope that the matter will be satisfactorily arranged. • General Saldanba, ace: rding to the Ministers them selves, has been reconciled, and great operations are said to be about taking place at head quarters. Illy opinion, boweier, is, that this reconciliation will only last a few days, and that nothing permanently good can work as long as ill. Freire is Minister at War, because the feeling against him is very general in the army. I have now to inform you of the advantages obtained by the ever gallant Btrnardo de St at the Algarves, on the 22d, 211, and 24th, having taken possession of Tavira, Villareal de San Antonio, and Cassro Marino, where he took several pieces of heavy artillery. Early yesterday morning the fine corps of 800 Belgians sailed for that province on board the City of Edinburgh steamer, and another vessel, taking with them three field pieces, and the necessary equipments fcr 200 Andalusian horses, which they expect to collect there about the 10th of this month ; and if the confidential information which has been given to me as to future operations be correct, we may look for very important and favourable events (rein that quarter shortly. Au engagement - took place at Rilvas, near St. Übe s, on the 2d instant, between about 200 men of Donna Maria's troops, under the command of Calza Pina, aide de-camp of Don Pedro, and a corps of the insurgents, when the latter were beat, leaving on the field SO killed, 11 prisoner s, and 9 horsts ; the loss on their side was one killed and three wounded, one of which was the above mentioned Calza Pin ►. The fast-sailing Blitidi cutter Scorpion, which had been hovering about Vigo and several other places along the coast, in order to seize a good moment of getting irrto Viana, or Fie,ueira, has been captured :it Cimina, with all the stores, and two Miguelite agents who were on hoard. The fire from the Spanish batteries at Guardia, on the other side, compelled her to run on shore, and ultimately she was taken. There are two other fast.sailing cutters expecttd from Plymouth at Vigo (where they go to pro• cure information as to the state of affairs in this country), whit arms and clothing for the Miguelites ; but there are two fast-sailing vessels of this squadron waiting for them near the Bayona Islands, independent of a steamer which is cruising also for the same purpose. I sometime since informed you that there was a notion of making Lisbon a free port, and I have now to announce to you, from vety good authority, that a decree will ap pear in the course of a few days for the purpose of al lowing all goods and every kind of merchandise to be bonded and reshipped within a specified time, tree of the established duties, on the payment of from one to five per cent., according to the description of merchandise, so that it is the next thing ti, makii.g it a fete port in all but the cane. This measure will matttially increase the trade of this place, and it is the work of Silva Carvallio. Another decree %Lich is in contemilation by . M. Car valho in the selling of all goods and effects which have been in the Customs and India house beyond two years for the payment ol rent and charges, and which measure, owing to the very 'considerable old stock which there is and which ' I have sent, is lik ly to produce about 140,0001. to the Citteen's Treasury; of course the parties will have the option of taking their goods by paying the chat ges. I just hear that nine hundred troops are exp cted here from Oporto to go up to •the army. Admiral Napier is not yet gone to the /lig/try:a, but the report about his going thither continues. Lord Hooard de Walden has not been received up toeitais hour, 12 o'clock. Two hun• died more horses have arrived from England, and no more are for•the present wanted. MARCH 9. .• . . - ---- -- i, It appears f f r a or ir t ii h a e n ( L iffi e e ; i: i l i :de th tte t o h f e tl e ie ne aff ill ii , r B a ß i o A ya l,l ii e s a corps was ent r e ly dewroyed, !caving Prisoners the coin. intfoling officer and 34 in ivates, an.l I have goad reason (t) know that their killed exceeded 85 mein, On this side ere was not a single wounded man. If Saldanha at. racks Santarem with vi: -oar, you may depend upon his carrying it, notwithstanding whatever you may have heard to the contrary. I have seen an English gentleman just come from Oporto overland; he has been at Gdooira, Pombal, Leyria. Santarem, &c., and states that the Migu elite troops are better clothed than what he had any idea of, and that Miguel is forcing every one to join hi. corp.:, even boys of 14 years. At Pomba there were 2,00) Miguelires, who seemed constantly afraid of an attack , rorn .he troops at Leyria. At Coimbra there were only 400 of t' e insurgents, and General Macdonald, who was some time at Figueira, is now at that place. I find that in the hurry of writing my letter under dets of the sth inst., I omitted to mention one very important regulation relative to the bonding duties. Such goods as now pay 2 per cent. when re....xported, will, I am told, say nothing but warehouse rent, and the duty of from 1 2 per cent. will only apply to such merchandise, li gaids included, the bonding of which was not allowed ; and further, such East India, West India. American, Bra zilian, or other ships which may come in for orders, or for , he chance of a a.le afloat, and which should leave the Tigus u ithout unloading any part of their cargo, shall he exempt from all port charges ; in one word, the minist•r's .nj , c , is to encourage, by every possible means, the mak ing of Lisbon a general rendezvous for the ships engaged in e very trade, as well as a untvers.l depot of merchandise ~1 every kind. By these means the immense trade of the United States will he attracted to this port. This measure will save the trade of Lisbon, and restore to its tormer, and indeed greater splendour. To show t what extent it had diminished, look for instance at our sack of colonial produce, and compare it with that of Hatribur± at the en I of 1833. In Lisbon.—Sugar, 4,900 chests, or 6,2721 b. Coffee, 2,100 bags, or 336,0001 b. In Hamburg,—Sugar, 22,000,000 bags. Coffee, 14,000,000 ditto. The fact is, that as we receive no imports, and cone. quently have no stock* worth tn,ntiowng, nobody sends ',Hers for colonial produce as formerly, and all business was gradually leaving the place. Rio d, Janeiro exported in 1833, 500,000 bsi.s of coffee : of which 213,000 bags went to the United S'a'es, the remaindet to England, Honborg, and the Mediterranean ; to Ltsbon only 5,700 bags, and to Oporto, 1,600 bap. Now, with wise regulations, and the liberal facilities shout to be granted, the trade of Lisbon will revive once inure, hod most likely be carried to a greater extent than vllat it was ever known before. If the Americans can be nduced to frequent this port, it will be an immense ad vantage. Another good thing which the government have just done is an arrangement with the Bank at Lisbon ta take all their bills on London at the current exchange, -ultiect only to the charge of a very small banking com mission, and thus the government bills will not appeat floating up ,n the market, and held ny almost every officer in the army, some of whom, or rather the most part, anxious for their money, have come to 'Change and sold them as high as 55k. Even this day there was a large lot sold at that rate, but they were all dated the 18th of Febru try, anti backwards in that month. When I first noticed the subject, I was aware of the injurious effect w! , ich these circumstances would have on the exchanges. Merchants' bills were then 53, and they are now st-llinz at 534, anti but for this arrangement with the Bank, God imly knows bow high the exchange on London would have become. Yesterday at noon Lord Howard de Walden, accom panied by Lord William Russell, and his secretaries, went to tl:e Palace of Ajuda, when the former presented his letters, and had Lis first audience of the Queen and the Reg , nt, her father, the Duke of Braganz I. Lord Howard de Walden addressed the young Queen for about 10 or 11 minutes. and hardly a word passed with Don Pedro. This day an interview is to take place between Lord Howard de Walden and the Minister for Foreign Affairs. The foil ,wing account oNthe distribution of the Usur per's forces north of Santarem has been furnished the by a respectable person : TO THE NORTH OF OPORTO, Villa do Conde, SO Milicias, Vianna, 150 Milicias. Braga, 150 troops of the Line; 220 Milicias and Guerillas. Penafiel, 700 troops of the Line, 87 Cavalry—Head.quarters of Count d'Elinar. Baltar, 750 troops of the Line. Santo Thyrso, 350 volunteers, guerillas, and 100 Cavalry Lancers. Say, in all, 2,587 Infantry and Cavalry. TO THE SOUTH OF OPORTO. Guge e Souto Redonde, 300 Militia of Feira. San Joao de Madeira, 1,000 Infantry Cacadores; 40 Cavalry Lancers. Oliveira dos Azemeis, 200 Militiamen ; 30 Cavalry, No. 6. Aguida, 70 Guerillas. In all, 1,640 Infantry and Cavalry. At Coimbra, 100 Volunteer Urbanos; 150 Militia of Soares ; 80 ditto of Coimbra and Figueira. At Pombal, 150 Volunteers of Pamela; 150 ditto of Leyria ; 350 'ditto of Louzao ; 400 troops of the line, No. 10; 1,000 ditto, ditto, No. 11, 12; 70 Cavalry, 4 field pieces. -2,450 In fantry and Cavalry. From this it appears that in the neighbourhood n' Oporto there are not more than 4,227 men, and even counting those at Coimbra and Pomba', only 6,677 men. No that a simultaneous movement from Oporto and from Leyria, if a few more troops were sent thither, would in a few days rid the whole of the country of the Miguelites, and I trust that it will be so done. The garrison at Oporto, including the Volunteers, is so very strong, that they could very well spare .5,000 or even 6,000 men for ouch a purpose. The garrison at Figueira has not, I find, been taken into the account, and it is about 200 men by the last accounts. The Miguelite Conde de Ibbadella receiv.-d two lance wounds in the engagement of the 18th, but be is doing well. MARCH 10. Since writing u hat precedes we learn by the telegraph that yesterday the 4th Cacadores, and I Ith and 12th Infantry of the Line, arrived at Sant trem from the north, upon which Don Miguel reviewed his troops and spoke to them at some length, endeavouring to encourage them by telling them that they would soon be in Li,bon, as he in tended to attack the Liberating army almost immediately. This is cow a capital opportunity for the people from Oporto to march down a part of their force, by which means a great portion of the Portuguese territory which is still suff,ring under the Usurper would be made in• dependent. The City of Edinburgh steamer is come back front tAing the Belgians to the Algarves ; they immediately upon landing went to join Bernardo di Sa, and it appears tnat he is about making a move on Beja, which will be sapported l.y troops from Setubal and other parts on this side of that town. After closing my other letters I go on hoard the Carron steamer to write these few lines while she is under way, to ware that in consequence of a telegraphic columunca- tion 320 British and 3 80 native troopS,.infantry, and 130 Lancers have left this for head-quartets. - I also encb-se an official statement, by which you will observe that 236 men came over from the Aliguelite army to the Liberating troops last month ; also an account of an engagement on the 18th ult. near Amareeja, wi.ere the enemy left 84 killed, and 21 prisoners. I believetbat orders go by this day's conveyanc e to Op or tO, i n ordCf to mike a move on the advance towards Col:Mira and Pori-tbal. A. 0. OPORTO, MARCH 4. The steamer Lord of the Lies arrived here yeateiday from Lisbon, for the purpose of carrying away the 'r : : mainder of the battalion of Volunteers whietAistinguislielt its..lf in the defence of the Serra Convent. All the single men of this corps were removed 1:::me time since to St. Une's, ancrthe Minister of War now makes a demand for the married ones, to be expended on some sitita4le occasion. The cutter Scorpion, with • clothing and ammunition either for Don Miguel or Don Carlra, has got safely into Camina, and landed her cargo. tier commander, who is said to be a lieutenant in the 13ritisli navy, was made pri soner by the Spaniar is, on the ground that he was con veying supplies to the Carlist rebels.
