This observation of the Advocate was followed by consider. able agitation at the bar.

Mocquart. All the Ad vocates started hp in defence of their colleague, hut the Attor ney-General having persisted in his demand, the .Court retired to deliberate on the subject, and, at the end of half an hour, re turned and declared, that there was no cause to apply the 39th article' of that' decree to M.

PETERSBURGII, AUG. he , fete of the Empress Dowager and the Grand Duchess Maria, of AVeimar, was kept yesterday with great so !ernnity. Our Conservateur Impartial has the following observations to an article dated Madrid, July 9 " It was not merely to- make a vain outcry, that prudent men long.since foretold the unhappy events of which Spain is now the theatre. The criminal indifference with which the _party that has assumed the mask of a high - so undin g name,re .ates the effects of its death-bringing doctruies,the praises whiCh it bestows'on the men who profess them, and on the disciples who diffuse "them, evidently. prove that it is an enemy to its -country. ',This party, which is easily recognised, bears on its tanners the words Toleration and Moderation ;' but in truth, if moderation is a necessary virtue in our times, 't should be ' 'preached to the oppressors and not to their victims. The men e,wira are collected (eattroupes ) in what are called Constitutional Assemblies, are rejected by the sound part of the nation, whose I power they usurp, and whose interest they betray. This part of the nation will have nothing to do with them, and it is clear that a nation neither can nor will give to every minority the right to destroy what it holds most dear and sacred. With what front, then, do they dare to proclaim the name of Country !' • Who has commissioned them to lay their destroying hand on the social edifice, but for which the word civilizatiOn would be a term unknown to them ? These men are doubtless conscious of the crimes which they render popular; but they desire to rule, and use the ignorant and credulous crowd as an instru ment to attain their end.—Why must Spain present a new ex ample of these melancholy truths. —lieu - pietas ! lieu prisca fides ! invictaque kilo dextera." VIE . A, AUG. B.—lt is now decided that the Congress will meet at Verona. It appears certain that the King of Prussia'and Princellardenberg will be present. at it. An Order has just 'been published, which.directs that the regiment 4 of infantry in Upper and. Lower Austria shall be raised to their full complement by the end of September.— This Ordinance, which causes some surprise, is mitigated by another, which dispenses the , Landwehr of these provinces from the obligation of assembling bytbmpenies for the Au tumnal exercise. However, the new conscripts, who are now •training l are to be exercised for three weeks in the chief towns of the districts. A letter from Constantinople of the.l3th July has the fol ' lowing remarkable particulars : " An insurrection was to havebroken out here towards the end of June. Its failure was chiefly owing to Ibrahim Paclui, who commands the Asiatic troops at Bujukdere ; his prudence has. kept the Asiatics to their duty, and their officers have so lernidyspromised to oppose the projects of the Janissaries. A -similar resolution was taken by the officers of the corps of the Pc.cha.of Broussa, stationed on the opposite side of the .Chan nel. The refusal of these two corps to join in the conspiracy and act with the .Janissaries, caused the discovery and the .faAlure of the plans of the conspirators. All the circumstances of the conspiracy are kept-very secret, so that it is impossible • at present to give any- authentic account of it. " Haleb Effendi continues to do his utmost to persuade - the Sultan to retire into Asia. Minor; there to place himself at the 'bead of an army, .whose officers shall be devoted to him, and , ends to avoid at once the menaces of the Janissaries, and the .ambition of Ibrahim. The projected reform in the corps of the , Janissaries will probably hasten the catastrophe which threatens the destruction of the Turkish Empire." Anne 13.—The more that the conviction gains ground that peace will be maintained in the East by the concession which the Porte has at length resolved to make, the more do our Funds se. 10.—Metalliques, 80'9-16—Bank Stock, 810'1-5. Au.G. 12.-111etal. 80 I—Bank 826. RAlilir 0 ItT, Au G. 16.—There is a report that the Janis. .laries- have again committed great excesses at Constantinople. Thelast accounts from Smyrna, of the 7th July, say-that the Turks are fortifying themselves in the island of Scio, and that it is the intention of the Porte to settle a Turkish population, -instead of the Greeks who have been destroyed, in that now ..desolate but fine and fertile island. The . Oriental Spectator inserts a letter from TauruS,' accord ing to-which the English Ambassador at the Court of Persia, .after a violent dispute with the Schah, had demanded his pass port, and left the capital with all the English Consuls. Such a molution would certainly afford the strongest proof that the `'Firithlt 'Court could give of an alliance with the Porte ; but , the authenticity of the account, may well be doubted. The English interests in ,India are too important to be sacrificed for ,the salve of the Turks. JENA, Aua. I. The - investigations making here, of which we lately spoke, are so far advanced that the decision is Zany. expected. It has been long known that a kind of association of • the Students existed at Jena ; and, the Government of Weimar having been called upon by that of Berlin to make an inquiry nto•it ; this was the more-easily done.as some of. the Chiefs of the Association 'were known. The Members of the Asso -elation, about 1.50 in number, readily gave to the Senate a -list of their names,-to shorten the inquiry. Each indiVi dual was-examined singly; which took up several weeks. The .depositions of all of them agreed that the object of the As sociation was wholly of a moral nature,- and that in. their opi. won it was only by such an Association that good Order could be maintained among the Students ; but that they had no poli 'Val views. • The Proatector,-Professor 'Ludon, and the Other MeMbers .of the Senate, seem to, be convinced of the asetiracy of these statements, and said they would do their utmoit .that the ,par ticipation in such an association, by which it . was intended to Maintain -tranquillity and order, -should receive either none or.

Turin, eapresAy refused to, receive Ministers 'from Portugal nominated bq his 'Majeit, subsequently to the memorable day of the 4th of July, 1821, it b f frptuad that th e Prussian Government refused pass tspor to the Chevalier d'Oliveira, who-was on his way to Berlin, in the _quality of Charge d'Affaires , of, this kingdom, ,and that he was given to understand thai lie- could not be received, until an ,swers on the • subject of his mission should arrive from the Courts of Vienna and Pepibuigh, whose Ministe r s; - r es e , dent in Berlin, had made Sigry , earnest declarations ag-ainst admission. Although this hesitation bf the Court of Prussia to receive our Minister was much less offensive than the formal refusal of.thee Government of Austria, and of its p4endants, Naples and Sar- Ainia e the Government of his Majesty having a delicate sense of whatever affects the national honour' and dignity, of which it is the -geardian, thought it right to follow with the Prussian Go vernment, precisely the same line of conduct which that Go vernment had judged roper to trace out. Inasmuch, there.„ fore, as the journey of our - Charge d'Affaires had been suspend ed, it -was fitting that all diplomatic relations should be sus e pended with the 'Prussian Charge d'Affaires. ,This resolution was made known -to him verbally, conformably to the mode which had been adopted by.the Prussian' Government. The Chevalier D'Oliveira was ordered not to wait for the de cision of the Court of Berlin, but to proceed to Stoiltholm, in order to succeed the Minister at that Court, who, for reasons connected with the public service, had been ordered to return to Italy. His Majesty, indeed, had no anxiety to know what were the questions which Prussia had addressed to Austria and Russia, or what were the answers, and consequently cared not whether the decision of his Prussian Majesty should be to ac cept or to refuse the Portuguese Minister. • The Government of his :Majesty felt that it would be inde corous to wait for that decision, as they zoas idered it contrary to the respect due by-the Court of Prussia to that of Portugal, to hesitate in receiving a Minister sent to it, in reciprocity for one accredited here since themonth of September last. During the suspension of; his functions, the C hevalie r had received from liamhurght to be delivered to him free of duty. There was no wish to 7,eithhelcl the order, but it was neces sary to • certify to the, Custom-hotige the ground of the exemp tion, and -it could not be stated that it was granted, because he was, Charge d'Affaires, for he did not then hold that charac ter. The real reason was accordingly assigned, which was, that the commission for the books hard been despatched during the time of his exercising the function of tharge,d'Affaires. The order to the Custom-house, which was transmitted to him unsealed, in order that he Might use it or not, at his dis cretion, excited the choler of the Chevalier d'Olfers, who com plained that the suspension of his functions had thus been made public,, while his Court had only verbally intimated to the Chevalier d'Oliveira 'that he should suspend the prosecu tion of his journey. . In vain was it observed to him, that as the using or not using the order which he had solicited depended upOn himself, the publicity which might be given to it also depended .upon him, and consequently might be avoided if he wis h ed it. But the 'Chevalier d'Olfers, notwithstanding that he made no use of the order, made his suspension publicly known, and-ad dressed strong complaints to his Government on that subject. Meanwhile, the answers which had been expected from Vienna and Petersburgh arrived at Berlin, and his Prussian Majesty, finding that he might give free scope to the liberal sentiments which constantly distinguished him during the last 25 years of the war' of opinion that had from the commence ment of the French Revolution divided Europe,- immediately declared that he would receive whatever Minister the Portu guese Government thought fit to send to him. Thus ceased the suspicions which had been conceived, that the difficulty started with respect to the admission of the Chevalier d'Oli veira proceeded from the same principles that dictated the re fusal of the Court of Vienna- It appeared manifest that the hesitation was. founded on -a sense of the delicacy which was due to the Allied Powers. Notification of the determination of the Court of Prussia having been received, the same was communicated to the Che valier D'Olfers, by the subjoined note, No.I. He imme diately requested a conference, in which he demanded formal satisfaction for the pretended offence of publishing the suspen-: sion of his functions, and an express declaration that the Govern ment of his Majesty had formed an erroneous judgment of the motives by which the Prussian Cabinet had been actuated. It was answered, that the Portugue se Ministry . , insteati of abandoning themselves to vain conjectures respecting the mo tives which had induced the Prussian Government to throw ob stacles in die way if the journey of the Chevalier d'Oliveira— motives which it never showed a, disposition to explain—con fined themselves to a single act of reprisal ; and to show that the matter was no farther thought of, the destination of the Portuguese Charge d'Affaires was immediately changed. He was ordered to proceed to the Court of Stockholm, and to take no step for communicating with that of Berlin. On withdrawing with this answer the Chevalier d'Olfers adopted the resolution of demanding his passports, by his note No. 2, which gave rise to the correspondence (Notes No. 3,4, and 5,) in which will be seen a new proof that the Portuguese Government prefers cutting off all diplomatic relations, to per mitting the Ministers accredited to it to fail in a single iota of the respect which is dui to the dignity of the King and the nation. No. I. The undersigned Minister and Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs has the honour to inform the Chevalier d'Olfers, Charge d'Affaires from Prussia, that he has just keceived from Berlin the agreeable information, that the Prussian 'Government, hav ing had those explanations which, according to its system of policy, were judged necessary with Russia and Austria previous to the reception of the Chevalier d'Oliveira, Charge d'Affaires from Portugal, there now exists no objection either to the recep tion of Chevalier d'Oliveira, or any other person whom his Most Faithful Majesty may choose to accredit to the Court of the King of Prussia. His most Faithful Majesty, after this declaration, being sa tisfi.Al that no disrespect to the dignity of his Crown had any part in the motives which induced the Ca binet of Berlin to de lay the reception of the Chevalier d'Oliveira, has directed the undersigned to intimate to the Chevalier d'Olfers, in order to its being made known to his government, the extreme satisfac tion which his Majesty experiences at the happy removal of every thing capable of suspending even for a moment the con tinuation of those relations of friendship never before interrupt .ed between the two Courts, and in the preservation of which his Majesty, as well as his government, take an interest proportion- I ate to their high importance. The undersigned experiences much pleasure in being the me dium of this communication, and avails himself of the opportu nity to reiterate to the Chevalier , d'ollers, the assurance of his particular esteem, and also of his most perfect consideration.

I cannot give your FAcellency a more convincing proof of nay' earnest wish for the 'amicable' adjustment of this unpleasant business, than by once more repeating that, in spite of the new 'embarrassments . that have 'arisen, I stlirani and always have been disposed verbally to renew the propositions which I have made to you at various times, being' unable longer to maintain correspondence with your Excellency until you accede to the propositions which I had the honour personally to pre sent to his Majesty, and of which your Excellency. has doubt- less had to render an account. Besides, your Excellency cannot fail to be convinced that the refusal of these propositions consti tutes a sufficient motive, and one.too well known to his Majesty . to render it necessary,for him to conjecture it This is all that 1 can reply to the note of your Excellency of the 6th of this month ; and I certainly would have given the same answer, though you had not thought it necessary to make an appeal to my honour and good faith. If, however, younxcellency, judging unfavourably of -my sentiments, which I hope will not -he the case, should persist in rejecting the only means within my reach for leading back affairs to the pointin which I am desirous of seeing them, then you will permit me to renew my application for passports, by refer ing you to the official communication already made for that purpose.

From the following intelligence received a LLOYD'S, this day, from their agent at Smyrna, we rejoice to find that our cruizers, up to the 17th ult. had respected the Greek blockade ; and also, that no European vessels, except such as were discovered in the act or violating the blockade, had been molested by the Greeks for some time past.—Our Readers will recollect the prejudice which was excited against the cause of Greece, by the frequent allegation that their ships were little else, than a swarm of pirates, indiscriminately attacking and plundering mer chant vessels sailing under every flag. Whether these charges wer e well or ill founded (and we know not any one well authenticated instance of their violence), 'it is at least evident that since the establishment of their regular Government, all irregularities in their co6duct on the seas have ceased : Extract of a Letter from Me Agent to Lloyd's at Smyrna, dated July 17. " The situation Of this place continues tranquil and satisfactory. We have received a letter from Cllr.

Fur ther than this we have not heard of any European vessels re ceiving molestation from them for some time.

King's Messenger, stub [A BST R ACT.] DECREE.—The salvation of the State urgently requiring the meeting as soon as possible of the Council of the Represen tatives General of the Provinces of Brazil, that I ordered to be created by my Royal Decree of the 16th February of the pre sent year, I have thought proper to order a meeting for to morrow of those already elected and residing here. Palace, June 1, 1822. By the PRINCE REGENT. Illustrious and 'Worthy Representatives,—The Representa tives of St. Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and the Mines, when they re quested me to remain in Brazil, also requested of me the creation of a Council of State. I determined to create it in the form or dained in my Royal Decree of the 16th Feb. of the present year, which form was required by the three provinces legally repre sented ; inexpressible was the pleasure that my soul felt when these Representatives came into my presence, because I then knew that the public will was not only useful but necessary to support the integrity of the Monarchy in general, and especially of the great Brazils, of which lam the son. My pleasure was still much more enhanced at seeing that the ideas of the people coincided with my own purest sincere, and cordial intentions, and as I was not willing to delay their enjoyment of the benefits which such a measure promised to them, I determined in the said Decree, that as soon - as the Representative.; of three pro vinces should be assembled, the Council should begin to exercise its functions. The execution of this decree cannot take place literally, inasmuch as the will of the people has been most unequivocally manifested, that there should be a general Constituent and Legislative Assembly, as was communicated to me by the Chambers. Not wishing, therefore, to postpone for a moment, nor to abridge in the slightest degree, what is desired by the people, I was convinced that I ought this very day to convene my Council of State, notwithstanding that the Re presentatives of the three Provinces are not yet assembled, in order that, in conjunction with such illustrious, worthy, and _ . . liberal Representatives, I might know what was their opinion re lative to our political situation, and in which the salvation of our country, menaced by factions, is interested. I have allowed my self to make this single recommodation, which is to support the cause of the Brazils, as they have just sworn, even though it should be against myself (which I hope will never happen), for I am ready, for the sake of the nation, to sacrifice my own life, which, in compariSon with "the salvation of our coun try, is nothing. Illustrious Representatives, these are the sen timents that govern my soul, and that are to govern your's ; rely on me not only as an intrepid warrior, who in our country's cause will defy all dangers whatsoever, but also as your friend—the friend of liberty—of the people—and of the great fertile and most rich Brazils, which has so much honoured and loved me. Do not think, Illustrious Representatives, that all that I have said is the result of deep thought, expressed in studied and de ceitful words : No ; it proceeds from my love of our country, expressed with the voice of the heart, believe me. • June 2, 1822. The PRINCE REGENT. [After the above follows his Oath, with that of the Ministers and Secretaries of State.l To his ROYAL HIGHNESS the PRINCE REGENT, The public safety, the integrity of the nation, the honour of Brazil, and the glory of your Royal Highness, most urgently require that your Royal Highness should convene, with the greatest possible speed, a General Assembly of Representatives of the Provinces of the Brazils. Brazil, Sir, wishes to happy ; this desire, which is the principle on which society rests, is founded on nature and reason ; to fulfil it a Go vernment is necessary, which, giving the necessary expansion to the great capabilities which it possesses, may raise it to that height of prosperity and grandeur to which it was destined in the councils of Providence. It was the desire which so long de voured her, that fascinated her at the moment when she heard on the shores the cries of liberty which sounded in the Douro arid s f „
