LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 27, 1833. CAPTURE OF LISBON. It was confidently reported in the City at two o'clock that an extraordinary express has arrived in town from Lisbon. Admiral NAPIER, it appears, crossed the bar on the 16th, and comniericed a grand attack on Belem Castle the next morning, which surrendered after a short engagement. Forts St. Julian and Bugio, after a few shots, also delivered themselves up to the hero of Cape St. Vin cent, and were immediately taken possession of by ►he English Marines in the name of Queen Donna MARIA. An attack had not been made on the city when the despatches left; all was in the greatest state of confusion, as the Constitutional troops were hourly expected, and there was no force in the ca pital to oppose them. This news has created a great sensation in the city, as it was looked to with much anxiety. There is nothing from Oporto this morning. Had that city been taken by storm, as the Miguel ite Journals pretend, despatches would have been re ceived before this by Chevalier de Lust and Go vernment. The anxiety which was felt by some yesterday evening upon the subject of the result of the amend ment proposed by the Archbishop of CANTERBURY on Thursday night, and carried against Ministers by a majority of two, was relieved by the declara tion made by Lord GREY. It will be seen that his Lordship stated that, although he was far from considering the alteration made by the R;ght Rev. Prelate an improvement, he did not think it such an encroachment on the princ:ples of the Bill as to justify him in abandoning the duty he had undertaken. He at the same time emphatically added—" I must again state to your Lordships most distinctly that if the principle of the clause had been infringed upon, there would have been an end of proceeding further." In order that the House might he under no mis take as to the way in which Ministers felt the con duct of the Opposition, and the danger that would attend their perseverance in it, Lord GREY said— " But at the same time, as I have already stated, I shall not disguise from your Lordships that, in con sequence of that decision to which your Lordships came, his Majesty's Government has been placed in an embarrassing situation ; and certainly if further alterations of the same nature shall be made in this Bill, then it will be for me to determine how far it wilt be consistent with my duty to persevere in the progress of this Bill." We are glad that his Ma jesty's Ministers have come to the determination they have, for certainly we would not put their re tention of place against the alteration made in the 117th clause by the Tory party; but surely what every day takes place must convince them of the truth we endeavoured yesterday to urge upon them, that the House of Lords must have an infusion of liberal Peers. It is absurd to suppose that any Mi nistry, seeking the advantage of the people, can stand secure, whilst the majority of the House of Lords consists of me❑ who were placed there on the very score of their being supporters of Admi nistrations which consulted the advantage of friends and connections before that of the people. The order of the House of Commons last night, for calling to the bar of the House the proprietors and publishers of the Times newspaper, appears to us the most unaccountable proceeding ever adopted by any deliberative assembly. In whatever light we view it, the course pursued is so totally at variance with reason and common sense, that—and out of charity to the Members who supported the motion—we must conclude that they formed their resolution without ascertaining the real nature of the motion, or the circumstances which gave rise to it. There are three alleged grounds for the pro ceedings—namely, that the speeches of Honourable Members have been published, that Mr. O'CoNNELL's speeches have not been published, and that the re porters of the Times have been guilty of a breach of privilege in coming to a resolution on account of what Mr. O'CONNELL said in the House. It is really impossible to say which of these grounds is the most trifling, or the least likely, to convince an impartial and jealous public. Whatever may be the technical forms of the House, every one knows that the day is long gone by when any journalist could be punished for publishing the debates of Parliament. Though the standing order of the House still remains, it is, for general purposes, a dead letter, and it would be as possible to stem the tide as to keep the public ignorant of the debates of either House. The second ground is equally untenable and absurd. Does any Member of the House think that the House of Commons can compel the editors of all the London pa. pers to publish Mr:O'CoNNELL's speeches, or force the reporters to report them,? Even though the proprietors could prevail on the reporters to give fi certain portion of his speeches, they have such a feel ing of disgust towards him on account of the wan ton and unjust attack made on the whole body that the very dictates of human nature would prevent them from doing him anything like justice. The House has no right or power to say to the reporters what they shall take, or what they shall not take, so long as the gallery is open ; and even if they had the power, any one who considers the matter must see that they never could compel an unwilling body to write, and in attempting it would only destroy their dignity and character. The House, we believe, was totally misled as to the last:ground of charge. The reporters made not the slightest allusion to what Mr. O'CONNELL said in the House, but simply to the words used by him at the Cartwright dinner, charging them with giving " designedly false" reports. It is surely no breach of privilege to allude to what a Member says out of the House, and no violation of the law to come to a resolution which is not a libel, fold which cannot, as far as the Hon. Member is concerned, lead to a breach of the peace. The truth is, the whole body of re porters have been charged with ignorance, incom petence, and wilful falsehood. They have, like men of honour, resolved to resent, 'by passive re sistance, such an injurious and unfounded charge; and should the House of Commons visit with any punishment their course of proceeding, they will soon find whether the public will side with the strong or the weak. In our humble opinion, the House will come to a -resolution which may lead to some discussion on Monday, but it never can have any practical result. Having had some opportunities of judging of the reports, both from attendance in the House, and from the debates which we are obliged to peruse every day, we can safely assert that the debates'on any question of general interest are given with a fidelity and correctness of language which no system of reporting can improve. The leading men in the House know this well, arid nothing but disap pointed vanity, or something worse, could lead any man to deny it. We know that misrepresentations have occasionally occurred, but these have been very rarely wilful. Justice says, punish such unjusti- fiable conduct, but do not punish the whole body, who are as innocent as the Hon. Member who is injured. The East India Bill has at length passed the House of Commons. The discussion upon the third reading occupied six or seven hours last night. Sir ROBERT INGLIS and others justly complained of the smallness of the attendance of Members upon a question which involved the interests of one hun dred millions of human beings. The largest divi sion took place early in the evening, upon the ques tion of whether the East India Company should be heard against certain parts of the Bill--the too great power given to the Attorney-General; the appointment of two additional Bishops ; the retention of Haylebury College, &c.—by coun sel. The numbers on this question were, for the motion 30, against it 100. Afterwards, when the distinct question was put, of whether Hayle_ bury College should be continued, the numbers had dwindled down to 46 against the abolition, 20 for for it. Now, had all the Reformers attended who must agree in the principle of :abolishing Haylebury College, and saving the East Indians the tax imposed upon them for its support, there is no doubt that Mr.C.WYNies proposition for its suppression would have bees carried. It is rather strange to see a luke warm Reformer like Mr. NI T YNN standing forward in support of thegreat principles of economy and compe. tition, and a Reforming Ministry acting against them. What, however, gave us the most pleasure, were the declarations made by Mr. POULETT THOMSON, that lie hoped to see the day when East India produce would be admitted without having a discriminating tax imposed upon it. At pres ent our system of comm e rce in India is one of gross i n . justice and oppression ; for we compel the natives of that country to receive our produce at no duty, whilst we impose a hi g h o ne upon theirs. We stated some time ago that an attempt had been made to form a Liberal Club, to consist of Members of the House of Commons, and the object of which was to give a degree of organization to the Liberal party, which has been so much wanted for the increase of its strength. The arrangements for this club did not, we believe, extend beyond the appearance of a prospectus, and two or three meet ings at the House of Mr. TENNYSON. It was found impossible to reconcile the different shades of opinion, and the plan dropped to the ground. Since that time, another attempt has been made by a Committee of Members of the House of Commons, and failed, as we think it ought, for it was one of the conditions of this plan that neither Mr. HUME, Mr. O'CONNELL, Mr. HARVEY, or any other Mem ber of what the French call the extreme gauche, was to be admitted into the club. Such a soi disant Liberal Club as this would have been, had it been possible for its projectors to have got it up, could have been of little use to the country, although it might have answered the purpose of some speculating Liberals, who think it their interest to embarrass Ministers without looking to the national good. We now hear that a proposal for the formation of a liberal club upon a more broad and generous basis, has been brought forward by some really independent Members of the House of Commons, and that there is to be nothing of exclusion on the ground of a difference of opinion on minor points, so that the great point of Anti- Toryism be agreed upon, and that in order to make this club what it ought to be, in opposition to the Carlton clique, all persons holding the_ rank and character of gentlemen, and professing liberal senti ments, although not Members of the House of Com mons, will be admitted as members by ballot in the usual way. Such an establishment as this would be a formidable opponent to the Conservative Club; but will it be possible to give it the degree of influence, in the first instance, which is essen tial to numbers and success ? In this country nothing is done without high-sounding names; for whilst we boast of our liberal institutions, we cling with a disgraceful fondness to aristocratic charms. Will Earl GREY and Lord ALTHORP, the Dukes of SUSSEX and DEVONSHIRE, and other noblemen of high rank and character, set the exam ple of liberality which is desired by the projectors of the club ? Will they consent to co-operate with Mr. HUME and Mr. O'CONNELL in the work of anti-conservativen ess , or will they not rather fear that they would increase the influen e of the ex treme liberal party by joining it in a general decla ration against the principles of Toryism ?

I Evening... 0 minutes after 0, see what the projectors of this new plan will do; but we must confess that we have very little hope of success for any plan in which the public welfare is to be consulted without reference to the shades of opinion under which different public men are supposed to act. Besides, is it not rather late in the season, being at the twelfth hour of the Par liamentry campaign ? We have heard this morning from very good authority that whether the Irish Church Bill pass the Lords or not in a sense agreeable to the House of Commons, that body will, before they separate, adopt some decisive mode of marking their regret and displeasure at the conduct of the Lords on various recent occasions. The plan at present in contemplation is to vote an address to the KING, praying him to confer with his confidential advisers on the means of providing, during the recess, against any recurrence of hostile collision between the two Houses of Parliament. Should the intention be persisted in, the address will, we are sure, be carried by a large majority; for although the Cabinet Ministers themselves may not choose to take part in it, or may even oppose it, their friends and partisans will not hesitate to vote with the Liberals on such an occasion ; and the only hostile votes will be those of the Tories, and of those few Whigs who may be induced, by a false sense of delicacy, to join with them against the opinion of an overwhelming majority. We hope, however, that in the event of such a trial of strength, Ministers will see the importance of either remain ing neutral, or voting with the Liberals. We may congratulate the country that the trenches are opened against Lord WARWICK. By the proceedings of yesterday in the House of Com mons, it will be seen that the Government has de manded of Lord WARWICK to explain his unconsti tutional conduct : and in default of his justification— and how can be justify?—his removal from the Lord Lieutenancy of the county of Warwick and from the Recordership of the borough, must immediately follow. It would indeed be a scan dalous insult to the constituency of the empire if a great aristocrat could commit, by himself and his agents, such acts with impunity. But be sides the jurisdiction of the Crown over the Lords Lieutenant, Parliament will, of course, take its own separate course against the Noble Boroughmonger ; and the small fry of Aldermen and Common Coun cilmen, with their incomparable Town Clerk, cannot escape the special notice of the Reformed House of Commons. If a report so honourable and dignified, from Members of Parliament in representing the largest constituencies, was not duly followed up by the House of Commons, the Legislature would be debased and degraded in the eyes of the nation. An Irish Correspondent asks us what has become of the petition respecting the Irish Post-oaice, of which Mr. O ' DWYER has given repeated notice. As we have no means of knowing, we refer our Correspondent to Mr. O'DWYER himself for infor mation. Perhaps the petition is to he brought forward after the Repeal of the Union. We are glad to perceive, by the votes, that Mr. POULETT THOMSON last night brought in a Bill to admit sugar, without payment of duty, to be refined for exportation. The second reading of the Bank Charter Bill is deferred till Wednesday. Why not till next Session? SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY. FROM LLOYD'S. DEAL, JULY 26.

Up to the present hour we have no arrivals, consequently we are dull in the City for want of information. THE FUNDS. Ministers last night in the House of Lords, met the Tories half way, and adjusted their difficulties on the clause of the Irish Church Bill; upon which the Tories suffered the Bill to pass the Committee, and we may expect that the third reading will take place on Tuesday or Wednesday next. Thus Mini*. tere remain in office. The Funds have improved. Consols, which left off yesterday at 89 for the Account, opened at 89 %, at which price they are at present, - ,vith little doing. 'We are hourly expecting an arrival from Portugal, which, no doubt, will be of great importance. In the Foreign Market nothing doing as - yet. We have a strong report that fort St. julian has surrendered to Napier, and that Lisbon was on the point of capitulating. HALF-PAST ONE. Up to the present time we cannot trace the general report that Lisbon was taken on the 18th instant, to any authentic source. Had that event taken place, we well know that a steamer would have been immediately despatched. Consols have been during the whole of the morning at 894 Q for the Account. In the Foreign Market the only business doing is in Portu guese Scrip, which has fluctuated during the morning from 10} to 111 ; a reaction has taken place, and it is at present 101. THREE O'CLOCK. Concols fur the Account, 89 ft. At the Hull Assizes, on Wednesday last, Mrs.Acbarin was tried, found guilty, and sentenced to two calendar months' imprisonment in the House of Correction at Beverley, for a libel on the Hull Corporation. Some membersof the Athenamm, in Waterloo. place, are ahrmed lest the exposure which very recently took place at a police office should, by mistake, be supposed to have a reference to their club. Surely the high respec tability of the 1,200 members composing that society is a sufficient security against the possibility of any false report of the kind they seem to apprehend being propagated, much less believed. The house dubbed by the name of the Athenaeum, in St. James's-street, and the Athenxum Club, in Waterloo-place, can never be confounded, except by idiots and infants. The neighbourhood of Regent -street, Lam beth, was in a state of great excitement yesterday evening, owing to a report that a man had died of cholera at the ince Regent public-house, Lambeth ; and the circum stance of a shell being removed from the House about eight o'clock confirmed the suspicion of a death having taken place. It appears that the public-house in question is resorted to by the labourers who are employed in the al terations now snaking in the common•sewer in the Ken nington-road, and who had their meals there. Yesterday morning, about seven o'clock, one of the men, named DoNAutioo, alias "Deaf Bob," aged 45, felt himself un well while at work in the sewer, and returned to the public-house, where he bad scarcely arrived when he was se'red with the most excruciating pains in the stomach, accompanied with cramp. Several medical gentlemen were sent for, and every assistance was rendered to the unfortunate man, but be expired in the course of two or three hours. Several similar cases of sudden death have occurred in the same neighbourhood within the last few days. PUBLIC TESTIMONIAL TO ADMIRAL NAPIER. 21IEETING THIS DAY. A public meeting was held to.day at the City of London Tavern, pursuant to a requisition signed by a great number of highly respectable individuals, for the purpose of determining on the most appropriate manner of manifesting the public admiration of the conduct of Admiral Napier, and of ex pressing in some substantial form the public approbation of the exploit of that gallant officer. Besides the illustrious Chairman (the Puke of Sussex) we noticed the following public men :—Sir Edward Codrington, Chevalier de Lima, Col. Hodges, Mr. Macleod, 'M.P., Colonel Evans, Mx., Mr. T. Duncombe, Sir F. Burdett, and Dr. D. Bowring. _ _ On the entrance of the Duke of Sussex and the Committee they were received with loud cheers. His ROYAL HIGHNESS, on taking the chair, said,—" Gentle men, permit me, in the first instance, to express my gratifica tion at seeing the present meeting so numerous, and also my unmixed pleasure at taking the chair on such an occasion. Indeed, when it was proposed to me to become the chairman, I consented without the least hesitation, feeling convinced that I could do nothing better to uphold the security and honour of this country than by doing whatever might promote the safeguard of Britain's best bulwarks.—(Hear, and cheers.) Gentlemen, we have now lived in a comparative state of peace for nearly twenty years, and during that period no great op portunity has occurred to show that the improvements in our navy are not unaccompanied by the continued bravery of our seamen ; if I except only the occasion in which the bravery of the Hon. and Gallant Officer on my right (Sir E. Codrington) was evinced; besides this, the result of which we are this day assembled to mark with some solid proofs of our approbation. —(Cheers.) I shall leave to those Hon. and Gallant Officers who are present, to detail the high character of Captain Napier's achievement, and shall only say on that point, that I believe it to be unexampled, if we take into account the weakness of the force employed; the small number of guns his vessels employed; the weight of the cannon, and the dis proportionate number of men as compared with the force by which he was opposed. It might be said that the opposition which he had to encounter, would detract from the merit of his victory; but we must remember that he carried into effect a plan on which he had determined to act, without a knowledge of what opposition might be offered, and had, in spite of what the danger might be, like a true British sailor, run the risk of boarding and carried all before him. Gentlemen, it speaks much for the gallantry of Captain Napier that he even now regrets that he did not take all the vessels to which he was opposed. I have seen a letter from him on the subject, in which, with the natural feelings of a British sailor, he apolo_ gises for having left two small vessels of the line to escape. It is not alone the mere immediate consequences of that action which we have to contemplate; for we must see that besides being a great naval victory, it is an important step towards the emancipation of Portugal. Gentlemen, having in view this appreciation of the bravery displayed by Captain Napier, it is for us to adopt some distinguishing mark of approbation—some solid mark by which himself and his gallant seamen may be rewarded. The application of this, Gentlemen, it is proposed shall be left to his discrimination and that of the committee, by whom a correspondence will be opened; and it is to be hoped that this will be followed up by some mea sures to effect a repeal of the Foreign Enlistment Bill, the existence of which is one of the causes by which the gallant officer has been suspended from his employment in the British nary. For my own part, I shall be highly gratified to see the gallant officer restored to his honours and rank in that navy to which he has been so distinguished an ornament.—(Cheers.) I shall now sit down to afford an opportunity for the pro_ posal of such resolutions as will convey our opinion of the services of Captain Napier, and their consequences, and shall take the sense of the meeting on each.— (Cheers.) Sir F. BURDETT, who was received with much applause, expressed his gratification at the respectable and numerous at tendance he witnessed,—more particularly at their being honoured by the presence of his Royal Ilighness, who was always ready to affbrd his support, whenever he might pro mote the true principles of liberty, or mark his sense of op_ pression. He knew not which most to admire, the skill or intrepidity that had been shown by Capt. Napier ; and whilst marking his approbation of the skill and gallantry displayed on behalf of the Portuguese, and the happy result likely to fol.. low those exertions, he could not but lament that equal good fortune had not attended the gallant and unexampled efforts of the unfortunate Poles. It would be much to be lamented if the services of one of our most gallant nava! officers should be lost to this country, in consequence of his having sought an opportunity still further to advance the glory of a British sea man. The resolution he had to propose was in substance to show the necessity for the emancipation of Portugal, in order that the commercial relations between that country and this might be renewed under a more liberal form of government. Be fore, however, proposing this resolution, he should say that the exploit of Captain Napier was not only of conse quence as regarded the question at issue in Portugal, and the upholding the name of a British sailor, but it was equally well-timed in aiding the views of those who, whether under the present or any other Ministry, were desirous of maintaining and extending liberal views of Government. The present proceedings, he was sure, would gratify the feelings of his countrymen, and besides that, would most pro bably tend to restore the gallant officer to the rank he had held in our service. Whether that would depend upon the repeal of the unconstitutional and ungenerous Act to which he had alluded—(Loud cheering)—he knew not ; but he took shame to himself that he had been so long a Member of the House of Commons, and had not proposed its repeal. Ile felt confident, however, that the present Mini sters who had so well deserved the gratitude of the country, not only for what they had done, but for the prospect they had opened to the country—(Great cheering)— would not oppose its repeal. It had been suggested that the necessity for striking Captain Napier from the list of the English navy was not altogether owing to the Foreign En listment Act, but that there were regulations of the Admiralty which made that step necessary, even if that Bill were repealed. If there were, those regulations were as revocable as an Act of Parliament. He was sure, however, that there would be no backwardness on the part of the English people to take such steps as were necessary, and he had no doubt that it would not be long before Captain Napier would again grace the lists of English officers, believing, as lie did, that what that gallant officer had already done tended very much to improve the solid interests, and increase the prosperity of this country. The Hon. Baronet concluded amidst loud cheers, by moving his resolution. Mr. R. THORNTON said, as a British merchant, intimately con. fleeted with the City of London, he begged to offer his tribute of admiration of the conduct of the hero whose fame they had met to celebrate.—(Hear, hear.) The victory which that gallant officer had achieved would be the means of restoring that commerce of which for six years this country had been de prived—(Loud cheering)—and it was a gratifying subject to contemplate that it had been achieved by a British officer, who had been nobly supported by those under his command.— (Cheers.) He hoped it wculd have the effect of restoring to Portugal that which she so much wanted—a free and happy government.—(Cheers.) He seconded the resolution. Carried unanimously. Mr. TRACY, in proposing the second resolution, said it was impossible to conceive any action more brilliant than that which they had now met to commemorate, and as it was im possihle, under present circumstances, for the Government to do justice to the laurels so bravely won by Captain Napier, he trusted the Gallant Officer would receive them at the hands of his countrymen.—(Loud cheers.) He concluded by moving a resolution to the eflbct that the meeting viewed with satis faction the recent change in the political aflairs of Portugal, tending as it did to the destruction of the present cruel sys tem of despotism, to the termination of a faithless usurpation and most unnatural conflict, and thereby contributing to the happiness of Portugal and the general cause of public liberty.— (Cheers.) Mr. STEVENSON, in seconding the resolution, expressed his approbation and enthusiasm towards the character of a British sailor fighting in the cause of liberty.—(Cheers.) He hoped this meeting would teach a lesson to certain parties in this country who were upholding the last dregs of the prin_ ciples of the detestable Holy Alliance.—(Loud cheering.) That faction had been teasing the Government with questions as to why had not Captain Napier been struck off the list, and why had they not put upon that officer some mark of reproba. lion, while that desperate faction had been doing the very same thing, and employing persons to fight apinst those prin ciples that this country had long been struggling for.—(Cheers.) It was disheartening to see legislators so far forget the prin. ciples they sought to maintain, and so far forget what was due to the character of a Bi itish sailor, as to endeavour to throw odium upon so brave a man as Capt. Napier. He hoped the resolutions of to-day would teach that miserable faction a lesson, and show that they would find no repose in the breast of Englishmen at large.—(Cheers.) They might find it in some of their own rotten corporations, but not in the country at large. He concluded by seconding the resolution. The resolution was carried amid loud cheers. Sir EDWARD CODRINGTON rose to propose the third resolu- tion, amidst the most deafening plaudits, which lasted for several minutes. The Gallant Admiral observed that he ac ceded to every word that had been stated, and begged to assure the meeting that he was not master of language to express the high admiration he entertained of the gallant conduct of Capt. Napier, well knowing the difficulties he had had to contend with. He would put it to the meeting to conceive the almost impossibi lity of a vessel bearing down and boarding a vessel twice its size, and that too from the rigging. He did not know which most to admire, the boldness of the undertaking or the firmness with which it had been carried into execution. The meeting were per_ haps not aware that Captain Napier was suffering under the effects of a broken thigh from a gun shot, which, he was sure, was the cause of his being third, instead of first in boarding the vessel. The effects of the victory obtained would be the restoration of commerce between that country and Eng land, and he gloried in a tenfold degree that that great object had been effected by a friend of his, and an officer of his own profession.—(Loud cheers.) As to the erasure of Captain Napier's name from the navy list, he had long been of opinion that such a right ought not to be assumed by the Admiralty. The taking away of the half.pay, was it, his opinion highly objectionable, as he thought it quite sufficient to deprive a man of getting promo. tion. Captain Napier's half-pay would only amount to about 50/. a year, and when it was recollected that other person: who had served the Government were not deprived of their half-pay, he thought it extremely unjust that so strict a rule should be adopted with respect to nava; officers. By the regulations as they now stood, the First. Lord of the Admiralty could erase the name ~~ -;• of any one from the naval list, .Witliotit., Saying'sthy. lid it.—(Hear.) lie trusted 24t NF.9.111-1 Gallant Officer have his half_pay restored; 6ut ititek.46s--)19, rious achievement not rest satisfied till they had raiedlitartc, that proud pre- eminence to which he was entitieti: Yhedtlant Admiral concluded au able speech, by proposing a resolution expressive of the satisfaction of the meeting at the gallant con duct of Captain Napier, by which he had deservedly obtained la himself high character among the proudest heroes of naval history. Sir T. TROLTBRIDGE seconded the resolution. He did so be cause he was a personal friend of Captain Napier. There was one point which had been mentioned which had made a deep im pression on him—that wan, that Earl Grey, in his place in the House of Lords, had states that it was with the deepest regret he had consented to the removal of Captain Napier's name.— (Loud cheers.) He sincerely hoped that removal was but of short duration,—(Cheers ) He sincerely hoped that the great measure now about to be brought forward in the House of Commons, would shortly be carried into effect, and would be the means of raising Captain Napier to that place he was so well worthy of. He would not go through the particulars of the battle that had taken place ; but he begged of the meeting to reCollect that this was not the first time Captain Napier had greatly signalised himself. He was sure that every sailor and Englishman would know how to appreciate such great services, and would agree with him in saying, that this country could not afford to lose the services of sO gallant and valuable an officer. The resolution was mried unanimously. Mr. C. TYNTE said he felt considerable emisarrassment in addressing them, after the speeches which they had already heard. Speaking after such celebrated men as the gat, lant Admiral (Sir E. Codrington) and the gallant Captni (Trowbridge) on naval affairs, was fi!Trlost presump tion ; but as the resolution he had to p :7 - Tose was to the following effect :—" That the late naval victory by a small force was a subject of sincere congratulation to 1: 1, e friends of Portugal, and that it was one of the greatest achievements in naval history"—(Hear, hear, hear) — he might be allowed to say a few words, especially as he represented the county that gave birth tollowe and Hood, great naval men. He concurred in every sentiment before expressed as to the renown deserved by Captain Napier. He then passed a high eulogium on the Gallant Admiral (Codrington), for his gallant conduct at Navarino, and said that he had not been done justice to with respect to that affair by the then Government. He trusted that Napier would soon again be able to be called one of the officers of this country, and would give all the support in his power, as a Member of Parliament, to second the wishes of the meeting. Colonel EVANS, M.P., seconded the motion, and congratu lated the meeting on the fact of such a glorious victory having been won not only by an English officer, but by British sub jects, and further, not only by an English officer, but by one who was a frien 1 to Reform. Something had been said as to the despotism that was about to be overthrown, but the meeting would have a better knowledge of the facts when they were told that it was a fact that in proportion to the population of the two countries, more had suffered impri sonment and punishments in Portugal under Miguel, than had done under the bloody Robespierre. The resolution was then put, and, like the preceding one, was carried unanimously. Mr. G. STONE proposed the next resolution, to the effect that a subscription be entered into for doing honour to Caplafis Napier. J. DUNCOMBE, Esq. seconded the motion, and hared the nation would come forward and subscribe liberally, nut a sly to do honour to Captain Napier, but also to those who iiaa. fallen during the glorious contest. Had England spoket4 out its indignation and displeasure, when the despot Mi guel first put forward his unfounded claims, he would not have dared to do as he had done, but he was afraid that, so far from that, the then Government gave hint underhand support. He was most happy, however, that what had been neglected by the Government of those days, had in these been obtained by a few British volunteers.—(Cheers.) Like the others, this resolution passed unanimously. W. SMITH, Esq. then rose to propose the next resolution, and was left speaking. VICE•CHANCERY COURT-(THIS DAY.) MARTIN V. WRIGIIT.-DELSIIAZZAR'S FEAST. Mr.' CHANDLESS applied es parte on behalf of Mr. Martin, the celebrated painter, for a special injunction, to restrain the defendant from exhibiting a dioramic view, at the Queen's Bazaar or elsewhere, the well known picture taken from the account of Belsbazzar's Feast, painted by the plaintiff: From the affidavit of Mr. Martin, it appeared that the defendant had bought from him one of the engravings of Belshazzar's Feast for 3/. I3s. 6d., and employed a person named Sebron to copy it on a larger scale, which he placed up for exhibition in the Queen's Bazaar. Mr. Martin most positively denied that he had authorized the defendant, in any manner, to make the dioramic copy, and stated his belief that the picture was intended as a gross fraud on the public, lead ing them to believe that it was painted by the plaintiff himself. Mr. John George Graeff; the solicitor for the plaintiff; also positively swore that the defendant had told him that the Diorama had been copied from a print of the plaintiff's. His HONOUR doubted whether he could grant the injunc tion without notice to the other side. It might be contended that there was a material difference between dioramic views and paintings, and if the view in question was such a daub as had been represented, another question might be raised, whe ther the plaintiff in a Court of Law would not be entitled to damages, but to no relief in a Court of Equity. Under such circumstances his Honour thought notice should be given. The production in Court of one of the placards of the defendant's caused no small merriment, the reverse side bear ing upon it the extraordinary words as connected with a dioramic exhibition of Fine Pickled Tongues. His HONOUR laughed heartily at the different uses to which the Board had been appropriated, and observed, that when notice had been given he had no doubt the Court would be amused with plenty of tongue—(Laughter.) COURT OF CHANCERY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. PoRTMORE V. TAYLOR AND OTHERS. Sir,—As you yesterday published the Lord Chancellor's de claration—" That be had made no attack or imputation what ever on the character of Mr. Bruce, and that, if your report was different to what he said, it must have been perfectly un intentional,"—as your reporter heard read to his Lordship my application of Thursday morning, and as you saw, from the certified copy of it sent you early on that day, that the above was the title of my application, and that its object was to in duce his Lordship to give such directions to the Accountant_ General as justice should require, and as should prevent, for two or three days, Mr. William Henry Snrman, Lord Port snore's solicitor, from receiving any money now in Court to the credit of this cause, until (according to Mr. Commissioner Evans's directions) Counsel could be heard by the Vice-Chan cellor or his Lordship, to correct one great error discovered in the rice.Chancellur's decree, until it should be decided whether I was only to receive (if I am only to receive) 1/. 15s. 6d. per cent. per anbum interest upon the 20,000/. and upwards, which Lord Portmore, with Mr. Surman's assistance, had twenty_five years ago contrived to get from me; or whether I am not to receive five per cent. interest, over and above the premiums of insurance of that large sum—premiums invariably allowed by the Court, in cases where a purchase or annuity is set aside, and the case considered as an equitable mortgage. To that application the Lord Chancellor's only answer, twice or thrice repeated, was—" That he bad no power to grant it." Add ing (upon my suggestion, that as Lord Portmore's counsel, Sir E. B. Sugden, and Mr. James, were in Court, they would no doubt relieve his Lordship from that difficulty, and consent to an application so just and urgent)—" I am quite sure, Mr. Bruce, they will not do that; you may give up all hopes , of that." As your reporter makes his Lordship to say—" , Lord Chancellor observed that he had no more power to grant t an l i t i:e o le r l t i a m a p d o p a i e e , a s r right to t t :f e o:a h a n i y , d i l which t i h a e k e n svo never said, auiclll was l a n m n o d a n d e t e y h t e o o r u e l y o u t i c t l l e th o , rly imputes to me the having applied to his Lordship " to go and take money improperly out of Lord Portmore's pocket." Finally, as you have thought proper to suppress the true title or name of the cause in which the application was made, and to insert another that never did exist, highly injurious to my character as an honest solvent man, I request that you will now relieve that character from imputations so totally groundless, and greatly injurious, by inserting this letter in your paper of this day; otherwise I shall, on Monday morning next, and at all hazards, again apply to and endeavour to satisfy the Lord Chancellor, that the reparation I ask is no more than just and reasonable.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant.
