alt mug on bnartl the Sp iliah frigate which drop) -1 down below 8e1..m Castle after the abdication on tic. 24th inst. The latest accounts state that the prisoner+ taken at the capitulation of Almada w.-re up'vards of 2,000, and most of them are now lo Iged in tt , e Con vent of St. Busto. The runaways of the morning of the 24 , b, consisting of the 31, 4th, and 7th Cavalry, lot• lice, and militia, who have ratorned to their allegiance, are not less than 3,000. It has been repotted that tl:o Brigadier of the Police, Joaquim .rose Maia, has sent in his recantation, or submission, to Donna Maria's G•,- vernment; he will he received, hut not employed. Ti i i: day's accounts state that Viscount Nlolellos, with his futzi tiv s, were at Andug:ateg", on his road to Santarem. An Add , ess was V is day presented to the British Consul G neral, from the British merchants, requesting that he would apply to Admiral Parker to land a party of marines. " LISBON, JULY 27. " With the s irits of the people roused as then now are, and the organ:z ohm of the N tional Guards, Don .Migt,el would never mike any head here, even if he were mul enough to bring down one half of his army to a•tack the capital. The Doke of Palmeila took on hqn the govt. , ii ment yesterday, and things are going on so well, that though the ereat change took place only three days since. yet we are in per l ect tranquillity. Whenever the Duke or Admiral Napier present themselves in public, they are received with loud acclamations. General M Yells has passed tl , rough St. Übes, and committed there, as it is said, the most dreadful atrocities. He was to-day only a league and a half from C.I.A. has, when h- retreated. The Duke of Terceira has d.- spatched troops to Mart c to cut him off, and another d-- tachment is in his rear from Casilhas, so that there is lit le chance of his escaping. Whilst this is doing on the other side, croups from those which fled from the capital are constantly arriving and giving themselves up at head quarters. A body ot 600 men, great part of them cavalry, reached Bemflea yesterday, and sent in their P uhini , o 4 i n to the Govrrnrnent. Many persons have been killed in the streets, hut not an many as 1 expected, from the justly eni aged feelings of the inhabitants. " JULY 31. "Every precaution is taken in case Don Miguel should make an attempt on the capital. Our Admiral, besides, has made his arrangements for the disembarkation, at a mom nt's notice, of 2,000 marines and sailors, so th it altogetl - ..er nobody fears what may he attempted from with out. The troops that fled from the capital are re turning in great numbers, and Alob-llns has given in his submission to the Government of the young Queen, which is already working well. B fore the Pike packet w: :s ch-ar of the bar on Sunday, a steamer hove in sight with Don Pedro on beard ; the intere , ting news was therefore taken to England by I er. It is impossible to describe the fe•-lines of the inhabitants of Lisbon on its being known here that Dun Pedro was so near; they were literally mad with j •y— I never witnessed such a scene. The whole of the Bi irish ships of war saluted and manned yards when theEmpet or landed at the arsenal. He was received with eomerhirg more than enthusi ,sro. He has d smissed the Patriarch, and ordered the Papal nuncio to quit the country within three days. The Spa nish Alinister left on Friday last, and the frigate a few .ys before. The Chroniea of yesterday stat 9 that a correspondence of the rebels, addressed confidentially to the Viscount de Santarem, has been discovered, and there is little doubt we shall have brotieht to light, among other matters, important !were s in which some of the Tory party in England have figured. " No p,st has ai rived since the change of Governmen% You will have le rrn , l the noble resistances made by the per pe of Oporto on the 25th. The 3liguelites attempted the life of the Duke de Cadaval, for refusing- to march on the capital. I shoo!" not b, surprised if D.n nein!, who, it is reported, is at Ale •bace, pays him in an unfor tunate manner or his great' services in Lisbon. " MILITARY REPORT TO DON MIGUEL. " Sire,—l hasten to send to your M jesty the report cf the Commander in-Chi. f of the army Of operations, and am happy to confirm to the King all the praises which the army has so well tiesemd. The cavalry has particularly distinguished itself by prodigies of valour, and has proved bow much discipline cin add to the eff ct of Portuguese courage. This example will not he lost on the rest of the army. " The details, yet incomplete, which have reached the Lieutenanr-General commanding the army of operation., have not allowed him to do jusrice to all those who have distinguished themselves. A second report will have for object to repair this reluctant omission. I ought to add my testimony to that of the Baron Clouet, for the purpose of recommending to the King's attention those officers of artillery who had the direction f the fire of the Serralves. Ir is impossible to direct a battery with more a,tivity or effect. " The Duke of Lafoens has been wounded on my side. Everybody admired his courage and sang froid. The Marquis Bettis, who w s always with me, was very useful in transmitting my orders. Conirt Cartaxo had his horse wounded under. him. The King had graciously placed his aide-de-camp, Mr. Correa at my disposal. This young officer has shown the sang froid of an old soldier, and Ivis known how to execute my orders with courage and gence. " I direct also your Majesty's attention to my ordnance officet, Major Biassaget, who has particularly distinguished himself in this combat. He was constantly in the hottest of . the fire. He alighted also for the purpose of heading a handful of infantry, through which step he freed a battery of artillery, and pushed the enemy bark to the walls of Quinta de Vanz-ller. All the other officers of my staff have done their duty; two of tl em have been slightly :Rounded. The Baron Bordi r ne had a horse wounded under him, and all have shown themselves worthy to fight in the rinks of this brave Portuguese army, whose fidelity to its King and devotion to the national cause re calls the most illustrious days of the monarchy. " The Marshal-Getter.] of the King, " COUNT DE BOURMONT. " Head quarters, Leca de Bali., July 26, 1833." " By order of the King a reconnoissance upon some po'nts of the fortified line which covers Op .rte on the right shore , f the D.itiro has taken place ; the object was o remonottre Quints de Vaezeller, Lordellti, and the ground situated between Lindell° arid the 5 .. a. " A column under General Lewis, advancing to Van zeller, drove ha .k the enemy's pick-ts, took the yellow house, and another house in ruins, in possession of the enemy, and reached the walls of the park of Vauzeller. Thee walls, from the strength of their construction, could only he rendered penetrable by the fire of 12 .pounders. Ultimately the difficulty of the toads impeded the move. ment of the two guns attached to this column, the train of one of which broke, and no hope was left to penetrate further on this side. " Nevertheless General Lemos maintained the po ition he had t Aro from the enemy, who fought desperately to regain it. Another column at the same time under L a eorhejaequeiin, advanced fiom Setraives ; p•rt of it pia-ed she fire of the forts of E v.-lha. and the test turned Paatelleiro { s position ; its march was at first slow, in emisequence of the road tfri:ie impractieable for artillery and cavalry, hut soon the advanced posts of the enemy were driven back in every direction. " Tie cavalry, obliged to act up n very unfavourab' , ground, have shown, nevertheless, great order and tesolu don. The r. giment de Cascaea (infantry) seiz,l the redoubt of Pastelleiro, which was taken and retake. thrice. Our troops, availing themselvea ..f the advantages of their ground, but held in ch. ck by the enemy's hat. t ries, kept, howev-r, their position, until Laroche jtcquelin was wounded, when they retired in the la ti. ot-rtl,r within our line. " The third column, under General P ntaleon,dir..cted their mirch to Lordelio. In turning to the left of Ser• raise% they drove the enemy's pickets to the till .ge,.anit near to the church of Lordello ; part of the column wen . on to the lett, in order to pass the river ; the other on the right, straight upon the village. All tie houses were occupied by the enemy, who, by their cross fire would have trade any attempt to take the village vet y sanguinary. Artillery was necessary, and the stare of she roads ren dered its approach impassable. The 3d Regiment of Lisbon, tinder the command of Colonel T, nneguy Du chatel, maintained, however, its position, them h unable to dislodge V e enemy from the houses they had occupied. " The smell column on the left found also many diffi• culties in its way, since it was compelled to match in front of the houses on a bad road. It met at the outset the deep valley of Lordello, and was exposed besides to the cross foe of the houses ar.d the b gm-ries before the church ; nevertheless the enemy was di iven before it, and some little advantages of ground enrbled it to keep its position until the obstacle; were sufficiently known, when the retreat was oriteted, " An hour after the attack from the right line, Colonel Ricardo marched with hi. c dumn to the Qiinta da China, wh ch is the extreme right of the enemy's line. " The detail of this attack' is not known yet. I can on/' infirm the King, that Colodel Ricardo has exectic d his orders, that he kept his position, and could follow at last die general movement of retreat, without being cull] - p, 11,d by the enemy. " The Comindocier-in•Chief is happy to acknovvlei'ge the brav e ry of the army. General Lemos, notwithstand ing Ike superipr fu c i e oppos , d to him, and the dlficuPty o thi2bettifigri}4' ' tly repulsed the enemy, and i c --i p ,%,4,,i - .: p4: , i Ou t t,, ; ) im, Several charge, fr 54444 '-.-- 1 1 - ..) .

'_.: •%, -T3-' ~ IUW MO of cavalry have taken place on the ground before Vatizeller, and some squadrons of Villavieiosa, though under the enemy's fire, in an unfavourable territory, have proved how much this regiment continues to deserve i•s ancient reputation. Detachments of the regiments of Chaves and Funandao, under the command of Larochejacqtielin. have done wonders, and had taken Nova near to Pastelleiro, defended by infantry. The cavalry in general has by its good order, sang froid, re-olution, skill, and contempt of every danger. brought to recollection the most glorious days of the Portuguese power. " In the 2d division, the commandant of the 211 brigade, J J. Proenca, was killed. Colonel Baron de Feriet, par•icularly distinguished himself, was wounded ; also Lieutenant Burg trel. "Colon.' Feriet praises much Captain B'rnnuillc. Captain Graham slowed much bravery. Colonel T. Duchatel, who attacked Lordello, has several wounds, one of which is dangerous ; we hope nevertheless to save him. This officer has displayed all the qualities of an accomplished warrior. He knew no danger for himself, and showed consummate talent and experience in his dim p,.sitions to maintain his positions with little effusion of blood. Colonel T. Duchatel has added a new eclat to his illustrious nirme. Don Sehastiao de Vilhena, a rik tinguished young officer, was kil'ed by a gun. shot in his chest. My aide-de-camp, Lieutenant Ketsalrie, was on the spot, and received him in his arms. Colon& Du chatel mentions Kelsalric's name with satisfaction. " I rccommend to the King the officers commanders of detachments of p;oneers, who were employed in every column for the purpose of opening the roads. These warri.rs have made the grea'est sacrifice a soldier can offer, having always headed the columns unarmed ; and I think it my duty to collect the names of those who have distinguished themselves. " The difficulties of the ground and narrowness of the roads have prevented the use of field artillery; the artil lery of the forts has, however, shown a praiseworthy •kill and activity. The commindant of the artillery of Serralves uierits great praise for his well directed fire. The conduct of the Commandant-General of Artillery. Coelhos, is above all pra;se. This officer, though op pressed with disease, has hbour.d without ceasing to exe cute every order conn.cted with his dtry, and on the day o the battle he caused himself to he conveyed in a carriage close to the scene of action for the purpose of giving his orders. "I witnessed also the bravery of Major Monnier, who never left me, and was very useful. This officer deserves promotion, Ihat he may be enabled to show hi+ cap cities, hi+ zeal, and his sang froid in their proper place. " General Lernos has, by the skill and firmness with which he conducted rvetyrhing. Justified the King's con fidence; he has proved that he will respond to that confi tence in every employment he may he called on to fill. " The name alone of M. le Count Laruchejacquelin suffices to say what he has been in this cooflict. He belongs to a family of heroes ; and saying that he was a Litochjacquelin I can say no more. " I am about to obtain a list of all those officers who have distinguished th-mselves, and I shall do myself the honour to submit them to your M ij sty in a second report " Baron CLOUET, Lieurenant-General, " Gimmatider.in-Chitf, " St. Mamede da Mesta, July 26, 1833." MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.) SPECIAL COMMISSION TO RECTIFY THE LATE EXTRAORDINARY BLUNDER. At ten o'clock the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex ushered the Commissioners into Hicks's Hall, viz :—Mr. Justice James Parke, the Recorder of London, Mr. Sergeant Arabin (all in scarlet robes), Francis Const, Esq., and the senior Magistrates of the Metropolitan Police-offices in the Middlesex district of the Metropolis. The Grand Jury having been sworn, Mr. Justice PARKE informed them that they were met on an extraordinary occasion. By reason of some extraordinary mis take, witnesses against prisoners in custody had not been legally sworn, and hence great difficulty had arisen. Some prisoners had been tried upon invalid bills, and acquitted — they were for ever discharged from all responsibility. Others had been tried and convicted, but the Judges who heard the evidence thought that a short period of imprison ment would satisfy the ends of justice—such prisoners the Judges had ventured to discharge. There were others who had been tried and convicted (some of capital offences), and those would have to undergo a second ordeal, supposing that they (the Grand Jury) found a true bill. There were again others who had not been tried at all, but who expected their trial weeks ago. They had suffered a long extension of imprisonment, but the grand inquest had no thing to do with that. His Lordship then referred to the case of John White Kelly, and a person of the name of Clark, against whom there were indictments laid. The jury would look and see if any provocation had been offered to the accused by the deceased, and if they thought there was, they would make a presentment accordingly. PERJURY. Yesterday a true bill was returned by the Grand Jury against Henry Rodolph Wigley, an attorney, for perjury, committed by him in answer to a bill in Chancery, filed by O'Gorman Mahon, to stay proceedings in an action respecting some bills of exchange to a large amount. THE FUNDS.--(THIS DAY.) CITY. TWELVE O'CLOCK. The only arrival this morning of importance is a Mexican mail by the Skylarl., sailed on the 15th June from Vera Cruz, and confirms the accounts we gave some days since by a French frigate, arrived at Brest, that they were again on the point of another revolution. The private letters of the 1-Ith June, from Vera Cruz, state that Santa Anna was still in confinement, accused of wanting to proclaim himself dictator. All the houses and shops were closed and barracaded at Mexico, and the greatest alarm pre vailed ; but to add to this a greater calamity prevailed,—the cholera and black vomit were making great ravages, on account of which we understand that the Skylark had no communica tion with the shore. It is stated that Santa Anna has escaped from prison. As yet the Vera Cruz papers have not come to hand. Accounts from Paris by the French mail this morning, state as follows:—" We can assert that the Court of Spain does not demand any other conditions to acknowledge Donna Maria as Queen of Portugal, than that England and France will not recognise any other successor to the throne of Spain than the Princess called by the Anti-Salie law of 1530. A note has been communicated to the above two Courts. The general report which prevailed yesterday afternoon of the arrival of Don Miguel at Cowes is not yet confirmed, al though Don Pedro's party attach credit to it, and suppose he arrived in the bay, which we do not believe. It is again positively asserted on 'Change that Don Miguel has landed in this country, which we doubt. It originated in the following cirf umstance : Two unknown persons came down to Villa de Conde, and were greatly surprised to hear that the Lord of the Isles steamer had sailed. They immediately proceeded to Viana, and went on board of her instantly. Although she was short of coals, and was obliged to put into Corunna for a fresh supply, they again proceeded to sea, and landed the two unknown persons at Cowes. No other passengers were on board.

As yet we have no official information on the subject, but another account states that one of them is Don Carlos, who escaped assassination at Coimbra. It is also said that Ministers were in some confusion yesterday afternoon on receiving despatches from Cowes, and that Lord Palmerston was immediately sent for.

The China Trade Bill was last night read a third time and passed. This Bill is intended to regulate our trade with China, to establish a species of strong Consular authority at Canton, in lieu of that of the East India Company, abolished by the new charter, and to provide for such other steps being taken as the great change now made may require. From the circumstance of the principle of this Bill being almost unani mously approved of by the House, it has had little or no discussion ; and al, hough, last night, Sir ROBERT !Nous made a speech upon it, both long and interesting, the late hour at which it was made, and the length to which the previous debates on other matters had gone, pre vented any of the Papers from doing more than mention it. Sir ROBERT'S principal object was to warn the commercial classes of the country generally against being led away by the idea that the Chinese market will at once afford an outlet for any merchandise they may please to take there. Before entering Into the grounds upon which the Honourable Baronet rested his motion, we may mention that it is not intended to allow any ships to clear out for China before the termination of the Com pany's Charter in the spring of next year. The document to which Sir ROBERT INGLIs principally referred, to prove the anti-com- mercial character of the Chinese government, was a return lately made at his instance to the House of Commons of the report of the proceedings of a ship fitted out un der the directions of the Company's officers at Canton, with a view to ascertain the possibility of extending, or rather forming, commercial relations with the Northern parts of China. The Court of Directors have been pleased to censure , he plan, and every thing connected with it, Perhaps, looking to the remonstrances whi c h they may yet have to sustain from the Chinese Government on account of this expedition, they were right in doing so ; but, for our own parts, we think it would have been difficult for the committee of supercargoes at Canton to have done any hing more calculated to advantage our cominerce than by collecting the intim-- maTion they have by this step afforded to the public. A sloop of war, having been fitted up -is a merchant ship, set sail from Macao on the 26tH Feb., 1832, under the command of a gentleman dile to speak Chinese, and accompanied by Mr. GUTZLAFF, to whom all the Chinese dialects appear to be as familiar as his mother tongue. He was, indeed, frequently charged by the Mandarins along the coast wi:h being a Chinese in disguise. We propose on some future occa sion to lay before our readers an abstrict of the very curious account of the adventures of these 4entlemen. All that we propose here to do is simply to show the reasons upon which we differ with Sir ROBERT INGLIs upon the conclusion to be arrived at from this document. He considers it as discouraging, we as encouraging. I , is true, as he says, that hroughout the paper we find nothing but a -V stem of repulsion on the part of the Govern. ment. There is no doubt of the fact that the Chinese authorities in every instance pro fessed themselves unable to allow any open tract ing ; but every page is full of the willingness of :he people to enter into an ii.t ercour - e of which they perceived all the advantages. Manda rins themselves expressed in dire c t t erms t h e i r e adiuress to wink at every thing that did not take. place absolutely in the market-place. Aber some details respecting the pric es o f tea at Fuh :til:taw: a large town on a ti ne r i ver, at a short l ice from the coast, Mr. LINDSAY, under whose command the expedition was, says— ., To c.inclutte, I must candidly confess my extreme egret that my ignorance on this t o pi c should have die justified me from attaining much uNeful and va:uable oformation on the subject of tea, which might have seen attained had any one possessed of the requisite knowledge been on board ; for the anxiety of the people to induce me to enter into aureements to purchase tea from them was great, notwithstanding the law which prohibits any shipments of tea by sea, even in native junks. One of the most respectable merchants, who was in the habit of visiting the ship, writes to me in these terms : But I have formerly asked you, why does not your honour able ship go out into the open ocean? I have already told you I only wait to know the place where you will go, and I shall take tea on board my vessel, and transport it without interruption. As regards tea, it is somewhat scarce at present; but if you have confidence in me, and will transact the business secretly, and inform me by letter beforehand, then there will be no difficulty in supplying you not only with 10,000 catties of tea, hut with any quantity you may desire' (li , erally, ten millions of peculs). The letter concludes with saying, If you are really desirous of purchasing Congou tea, I wish to provide you with some, exchanging every pecul for an adequate quan tity of opium' (even to the last day it was almost inapos• sible to persuade the merchants that we really bad no opium for sale)." Small sales of calico were made to numbers of persons at this place, notwithstanding severe edicts being issued against any dealings with the barbarians, as all Europeans are styled by the Chinese authorities, an epithet, however, which Mr. LINDSAY always successfully resisted being applied to himself. Just before leaving the place, Mr. LINDSAY had a conversation with a Man darin, named CHIN, of which the following is an extract : " Chin now conversed some time on the subject of the pamph et of the Ying Kwo, which he had evirently read wi , h much attention. 'We have all been mistaken as to the views of your nation, and our rulers consider that your only object is to acquire territory ; did they believe that commerce was your only object, so reasonable a wish could never be refused.' I replied, by expressing my regret that the great officers of the empire and the Em peror himself did not concur in his liberal and enlightened views on these important subjects, as nothing could be more easy than for the most perfect friendship to exist between our two nations, but that I feared that the system persever-d in at Canton must inevitably produce war and confu4.n, for the consequences of which, hi wever, the great officers of Cant "n would be alone to blame. Chin here opened a number f the pamphlet laying on the table, and turning Oct r to the passage relative to the insults and oppression of the Canton Government, we conversed fur sometime on thi. paint. Chin told me, that he positively knew that a full account of us had been sent to Peking, together with a copy of the Ying Iwo and four other works, belonging to Mr. Gutzlaff, of which the Viceroy had requested copies. In the course of the convei.ation Chin asked Ise if I intended to return in the following year, 'o which I replied that in all probability I should. "Li that case," a lid he, " I shun be among the first to come and welcome you, and means will easily be found fir you to curry on your trade without implicating any °he ;" and he ae.in repi-ated his titter regret that terms hood not at once bi en offered to us on our arrival which would have obviated the necessity of our entering ihe port." Similar assurances were given at almost every port the vessel touched. We should not be inclined to place much faith in the assurance of any Chinese officer, for it appears that, without exception, lying is the characteristic of all of them, unless it were backed by something more trustworthy. In the present case we have facts as notorious as the sun at noon-day to bear out the assurance every where given of the possibility of establishing an extensive traffic with the Chinese, with or without the connivance of their Mandarins. Sir ROBERT INGLIS did not appear last night to deny the fact, hut asked, " Shall we sanction a smuggling traffic ?" Our reply is, " Certainly, if we can establish no other." Reason never reprobated, nor has any publicist thought of condemning, the trade we carried on with the Spanish South American colonies before their independence, in spite of the edicts of the Home Government. The Chinese EMPEROR has no right to deprive his subjects of foreign commerce. It follows, then, that no wrong is committed by any party in evading the edicts by which he may attempt to debar them from the enj o y men t of a liberty which is indefeasible. The East India Company has long acted upon this prin ciple. It has not openly violated the imperial laws, but it has prepared the means by which others might do so. Those acquainted with our eastet n commerce are of course aware that we allude to its conduct in the article of opium. The edicts of the Emperor of CHINA are quite as severe against the importation and use of opium, as it is against any foreign commerce being car ried on in any port but that of Canton. The Company nominally bow to toe imperial man date, and impott no opium ; but they sell it to others for importation with the knowledge of its destination. The quantity they have grown, and price they have asked for it, have been, to a considerable extent, regulated by what they knew of the state of the Canton market, and it has always been their defence of the monopoly that it imposed a tax upon the Chinese consumer for the benefit of their Indian subjects. If, then, Sir ROBERT INGLIS admits that an extensive commerce can be carried on with the people of China in defiance of their rulers, if no moral law be broken by our doing so, and if it hath been constantly _done, we do not see what ground there was for the tone of apprehension in which the Hon. Baronet last night spoke. We do not advocate a resort to force for the purpose of establishing a free com mercial intercourse with the Chinese, for we be lieve it to be unnecessary. When the Chinese Government finds that our goods do find their way into China, and that we_ do get their tea, and other produce in spire of its prohibi tions, we should imagine that it would at length legalise the traffic, and obtain what re venue it could from it. If, the EMPEROR should not think fit to take the only wise course open to him, the loss will be his, and we can continue to supply his subjects with what opium they may want, duty free. In the course of a desultory conversation that took place last night in the House cf Commons, on tile subject of the intended National Gallery, Lord DUNCANNON observed that, in conse quence of the various difficulties that had pre• seined themselves as regarded the site of the proposed building, he should propose to convert he chapel of the banquetting-house at White hall into a gallery, which would allow of an extension to it, should such be found desirable. We are pleased to find that some decisive steps are at length to be taken for the formation of the long-talked of gallery. It is a reflection on the iiational taste that such a building has not beet erected years ago. l'he division on the Irish Tithe Bill, which was read a second time last night, was 109 to 53. Mr. LITTLETON observed on the occasion hat if the Bill did not pass, he had little or no doubt that there would he convulsion, and perhaps civil war, throughout Leland. The Slavery Abolition Bill was read a second time last night in the House of Lords, and the committal of the Bill understood to be fixed for Wednesday. We stated yesterday, on the authority of let ters from Lisbon of the 27th ult., that the Patriarch of Lisbon had given in his adhesion to the new Government, and publicly offered up prayers for the QUEIV and the Duke REGEN T. He had also announced his intention of issuing a pastoral letter to the clergy, on behalf of . Donna MARIA. It would appear, however, by the accounts of a later date in the morning papers of this day, that Don PEDRO had, on his arrival in Lisbon, dismissed this time-serving priest, with the Pope's Nuncio. The prompti tude of the REGENT in dismissing—despite their recantation—the chief promoters and sup porters of the late usurpation, might be imitated with good effect by our Ministry, who have, in too many instances, carried their forbearance to their Tory opponents so far as almost to raise doubts of their own sincerity. It has been known for some days past that the Lord of the Isles steamer was off Viana do Minim, in Portugal, waiting the arrival of some person of consequence. An extraordinary repot connected with the recent arrival of this vessel at Cowes has this day reached us. The truth or falsehood of this report must be known in the course of a few hours, but, in the meanwhile, e will state, as far as our inquiries have extended, the grounds upon which it has been propagated. It will be remembered that the Lord of the Isles sailed some time since from this country, having on board a Captain ELLIOT, who had been appointed to the command of the Miguelite fleet, with sixteen or seventeen officers, some military, others naval, who had been engaged to join the ranks of the Usurper. This vessel arrived at Villa da Conde, and there discharged her precious cargo. Immediately after the ar rival, Captain ELLIOT quitted Ville da Conde, leaving strict injunctions with the Captain of the steamer to remain at that port, and desiring his steward, on Fl o consideration, to leave the vessel. A few days afterwards, however, the port being blockaded by one of the young QtrEEN's vessels of war, the Lord of the Isles left Villa da Conde for Viana, where it was considered, she would be in greater safety. Captain ELLIOT, on returning to Villa da Conde, appeared exceedingly disappointed at the disappearance of the vessel, and it is sup posed proceeded again to MIGUEL'S head quarters. On the 6th inst. he made his appear ance at Viana, accompanied by an individual in the strictest incognito, who had three atten dants, and three boxes supposed to contain bullion, but with no other luggage than some travelling bags. The greatest anxiety was dis played by this mysterious individual for the immediate sailing of the steamer ; and, on its being represented to him that there was a want of coals, he would listen to nothing, but in sisted on instant departure, observing that they could put into Vigo, or any port in the Bay, for coals. On the following morning, the Lord of the Isles arrived at Corunna. where every com munication was instantly prohibited, and a vessel of war placed on each side of the steamer. Those on board, finding this difficulty, had no remedy but to pursue their voyage, and the ves sel arrived at Cowes on Sunday evening, when Captain ELLIOT and his incognito friend, the attendants being left at Viana, instantly landed, and proceeded either for Portsmouth or South ampton. Since then no further accounts have been received of them, but from the description given of the incognito by the person who has communicated this information, there is reason to believe that he is no other than the dethroned usurper ! Whether this information is well founded or not, we canna take upon ourselves to say ; but as the person from whom it was re ceived had no earthly motive for propagating a falsehood on the subject, we feel ourselves bound to communicate it as it has reached us. The report of the Committee on the Bank Charter Bill was last night agreed to. The Bill is to be read a third time to-night. It will be seen by our report of the proceedings at the Bank this day that much wrath has been excited by the introduction of the clause authorizing the establishment of banks of de posit consisting of more than six partners in London, and sixty-five miles round it. This is not unexpected by us; it only proves the magnitude of the advantage gained by the metropolitan public. The French Papers of Sunday mention that great political excitement existed in many parts of Switzerland, and that both Bale and Schwytz were to be occupied by the federal troops. Ac counts from Madrid, contained in the same pa pers, stated that the KING'S health had under gone no improvement. In another part of The Sun, under the head of " Portugal," our readers will find a report from Marshals BOURMONT and CLOUET, re lating to the attack of the 25th ult. on the garrison of Oporto. This report is a very dismal affair—more so than any military despatch we ever perused. It is pleasant reading as a curiosity, SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE--(THIS DAY.) Doe. FROM LLOYD'S.
