At the very commencement of the British inter ference in the internal affairs of Portugal, we in sisted upon the necessity of obtaining from her Most Faithful MAJESTY some sufficient guarantee for the fulfilment of her portion of the conditional agree ments of the Protocol. How far we were justified in entertaining these suspicions as to her duplicity the circumstances which are just now transpiring in the Peninsula tolerably well indicate. The argu ment enforced in one of LEIGH HUNT'S most felicitous essays, namely, that LYING is inherent in all classes of civilised society—being known amongst statesmen as expediency, amongst clerical gentlemen as mental reservation, and amongst crowned heads as kingcraft —is now being illustrated in a rather startling manner at Lisbon. Kingcraft appears to be as much a passion with MARIA DA GLORIA as Scotch scollops were once with our first JAMES, or as lampreys were with HENRY 11. And we do most assuredly anticipate that her Most Faith ful MAJESTY will as certainly come to an un• timely end by a surfeit of kingcraft, as HENRY IL zs said to have done by our veracious chro niclers from a surfeit of lampreys , unless her vici°uB appetite be very speedily corrected. King craft may have been ad mirab l y suite d for such cha ractersas the ruthl ess D k NO, have been precisely ca l cu l ated to Astren g thenLENTl it may E the Go vernments of the different Sovereigns of fore the extinction of feudality ; but it is becopmeebe as obsolete now-a-days as a pack-horse would be in the vicinity of the Great Western. MARIA DA GLORIA seems to be as incapable of comprehending this fact as the Municipal Chamber of Lisbon is unable to appreciate the advantages of lighting the city with gas ; for, according to the intelligence re ceived this morning from the Tagus, it would abso lutely appear that the members of that sapient assembly have protested against the contract recently entered into between the Government and a gas 7..1"ry, for the purpose of illuminating the metro by means of that combustible vapour. So fully indeed are our anticipation s being realised as to the faithlessnes s o f this "Mot Faithful" Princess, that there is no small proba i b oh liity of a recurrenc e o f th ose civil dissension s by which her unfortunate kingdom repeatedly has been recentl y and desolated. The curse of Portugal is in th tainly as that of Spai n was at one C"RALe ' as cer tperiod i n Eau iIIEL GODOY. Doubt, b ankru e peLserable bloodshed, a nd anarchy will continu e t o b e the possi bilities of the land of CAMOEN S SO long as the r e i ns of its Government shall be fingered by such political adventurers as COSTA CABRAL, J OSE CABRAL, et a n d SS SILVA CABRAL. Tas hey are the evil geniuses of their native land, and inasmuch as Portugal is their native land, they are immeasurably more culpable than the foreign intriguer DIETZ. By plunging the beautiful country which gave them birth into miseries and commotions, their names are ensanguined with a blood-guiltiness like unto that of patricide. They will figure in history as the ignoble opposites of the ever -glorious triumvirate—WALLACE, TELL, and Horse. Up on t h em more espec i a ll y w ill descend the malediction of posterity as the promoters of those sufferings of which Queen MARIA DA GLORIA has the lesser odium of connivat The system at a present adopt e d b y the Cabr ris e t; is a system of shuffling and prevarication, but it is a prevarication which is in a great measure dig nifie d b y its audacity. At the very moment when the conditions of the Protocol should be fulfilled these unprincipled poll- r El E SUN, ticians are evading them by a series of indirect re monstrances. At the very moment when the present Cabinet should, in obedience to the stipulations of the QUEEN, be withdrawing from authority, and giving place to men more suited to the exigeneies of the time, and more agreeable to the disarmed but still formidable population, that Cabinet is insisting upon the retention of power, and is thereby preparing the way for the re-elevation of the abhorred CABRALS. Can anything, we ask, be more heinous than this? Can anything be more flagrant ? The whole transaction has about it, indeed, something so heinous and so flagrant as to indicate a species of ambitious insanity. The CABRALS and their crowned minion, MARIA DA GLORIA, are blindly struggling for the seizure of that su preme and unconstitutional command, the mo mentary acquisition of which has already em broiled the inhabitants of the provinces and jeopardized the throne. They are struggling, more over, for this command in the very teeth of a people who have only been tranquillised for the time being by foreign intervention, and in spite of a treaty solemnly entered into with the Governments of England, Spain, and France. It is impossible, however, that this machi nation of the enemies to public peace can be con tinued much longer with impunity. Upon their de voted heads must ultimately descend the brand of that Nemesis whose vengeance they have been so long courting. They will, before a very protracted interval, afford a spectacle such as the lively imagina tion of Mr. DISRAELI perceived in the noblest epoch in the whole life of Sir ROBERT PEEL—" the catas trophe of a sinister career." The doom of Portugal may seem to these mendacious adventurers to be in their hands ; they will find their anticipations re versed ; they will find their own doom to be already resolved ;upon by Portugal—by Portugal that has been too long outraged—by Portugal that has all the capacity for becoming prosperous and happy under its constitution, but which is rendered the abode of civil war, or of intolerable anxiety, by the political crimes of the CABRALS, and the continual duplicity of Queen MARIA DA GLORIA.. The last or the Irish elections has been brought to a conclusion. The list of Members for the sister island is now complete, and although the personal changes in the representation have been very nume rous, there being no less than forty-four new Mem bers, there has been, as we predicted at the very commencement of the contests, but very slight change in the balance of parties, five Liberals having dis placed Conservatives, while the gains of the latter amount to four only. The chief gain has been by the Repealers, who number six additional legislators, having gained in eleven and lost in five instances. It is, indeed, questionable whether they may not claim ;till further credit, Mr. GROGAN MoRGAN being a very doubtful opponent of the splendid phantom ; and Mr. MONSELL and Mr. MOORE, the recently elected Members for the counties of Limerick and Mayo, by no means decided with respect thereto. The causes that have led to this result are, however, easily traceable. It may in a great degree be traced to the extraordinary coalition that has taken place between the Conservatives and Repealers, or to the neutrality observed by whichever of the extreme parties had not a candidate of their own in the field. The gains, however, are rot so remarkable as the losses in this respect ; they have, in almost every in ,tance, been attained in places where Repealers for merly sat, or where sincere and genuine Liberals had been returned, their non-advocacy thereof not being considered of sufficient importance by the deceased Liberator, and the general body of Repealers acting under his guidance and leadership, to neutralise their acknowledged qualifications and services. Their losses have, on the contrary, taken place where their chief strength lay, and where it was supposed that any opposition to the Repeal principle would have in sured defeat. We have already pointed out the causes that led to the victory of Mr. JOHN REYNOLDS for the city of Dublin, and his substitution for the " quarter-acre clause" hero ; it is, therefore, unnecessary again to travel over the same ground. It will, however, be recollected that Dublin had been represented from 1822 to 1841 by two persons supported by the entire strength of the Repeal interest, and the fact that Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL, Mr. FAGAN, and other leading members of the party declined to hazard a contest, may serve to show that the return is not fairly ascribable to any increased enthusiasm on be half of, or new converts to, the policy. In the town of Galway there was no contest, and although the unopposed return of Messrs. BLAZE and OTLAHERTY gave a nominal gain of one Member, had been up to May last, when the Solicitor General of Ireland was elected by a small majority in the place of Sir VALENTINE BLAKE, a staunch and de cided member of Conciliation Hall. In the county of Longford the newly-elected Members, Messrs. Fox and BLACKALL, belong to a class of Conservative Repealers that has just started into existence, and their return is owing, as we have already stated, to the meeting of the ex tremes, and also to the ultra-Toryism of Mr. LEYROY, which prevented any man of liberal politics from giving his support, while, in like man ner, Mr. WHITE was not supported by any of the Conservatives. The parties formerly had been very evenly balanced in the county. The coalition of a certain portion of the Conservatives with the mem bers of the Liberal Club insured the success of the candidates who gained their suffrages. The same may be said of the return of Mr. MAGA.N in West meath, and it must be recollected that the same in fluence which returned the former Members, Messrs. TUITE and CHAPMAN, was in the present instance given to their opponents. In Waterford city the former Members had been triumphantly returned by the Liberal party, and re ceived the entire support of the Repealers in the contest which they had carried on against the Tory influence, but unfortunately the brilliant and faithful services of the amiable and accomplished THOMAS WYSE were not considered sufficient. The admiration and regard entertained for him by the deceased Liberator was forgotten, and he as well as his Repeal colleague, Sir IL W. BARRON, were opposed by a section of the party who had formerly returned them. In the county no contest took place, the former Mem bers having withdrawn at the first appearance of op position from a quarter to which they were indebted for their former returns. In Wexford town and county the candidates were likewise unopposed, and in like manner supported by the party who had returned the former Members. The enormous wealth and extensive estates of Mr. GROGAN MORGAN in the county made his election a matter of certainty whenever he could make up his mind to take the Repeal test, and it was not until on the hustings that he announced his qualified adhesion to the principle. Mr. FAGAN replaced Mr. POWER, a more than half Repealer, so that in that respect the change is not very decided. Mr. J. H. TALBOT had represented New Ross from 1832 to 1841 ; in that year he desired to withdraw from the cares and labours of a Parliamentary life, and the Hon. Captain GORE was returned without opposition in his place, who when Mr. TALBOT again desired to come forward at the recent election, paid him a similar compliment and retired in his favour. represented e iers—mr. ,TORN by the Novs present leaderoN Ei, , of Y the u ro a r i al h - a fo d r bee ceß n epa from 1832 to 1837 ; in that year, in accordance with the wise policy of his father, who thought it desir able and prudent to strengthen the hands of the Liberal party by every means in his power, he with drew in favour of Mr. HOWARD, who, supported by the same interest, defeated Mr. NlcoL, the Tory candidate. Mr. CAVENDISH was subsequently re turned without opposition by the same party, and in the present contest the success of Mr. ANSTEY was, in a great degree, owing to the line of conduct pursued by him.th t he We Conservative haveth el u e s g cto o r n s, e gavehwthorough h their influenceseirveral gin a to s in favour of Repeal, and it will be seen that as we have stated, they are not in any degree ascribable to an increased desire or enthusiasm on its behalf . The losses, however, in the counties of Clare, Gal way, Limerick, and Mayo, formerly the strongholds of Repeal, and in three of which severe contd.-As tooli indicate much less anxiety in favour of the cause than had formerly been testified. The latter county, more especially, was looked upon as a nomin a ti on for which he could ret urn borough of Dr. WHALE'S, any person he desired to patronise. Athlone, too, which had been represented by JOHN O'CONNELL from 1837 to 1841, and subsequently by the English Repealer COLLETT, cannot be looked upon as a trifling or insignificant loss. On the whole, it will be found, that although there has been a numerical gain to the Repealers, the general result of the elections would appear to show a falling off rather than an increase of the popular feeling with respect to Repeal. Letters from Rome state that Count PETER DE FERRETTI, brother of the Cardinal Secretary of State, has just left on a mission for Naples. His departure afforded an occasion for a marked display of public esteem. Accompanied at his departure by a great number of personages of high distinction, among whom was the pro-Governor of Rome, he was re ceivbd at the Cavalloggeci gate with the loud accla mations of the people, headed by CICERONACCHIA. An extraordinary convocation of the Provincial Councils has been ordered in the capitals of the re spective provinces. They are to be occupied with the reform of the Communal and Provincial Councils. Cardinal FERRETTI desires the new institutions to be promulgated as speedily as possible. The Algemeine Zeitung states that the Greek Go vernment has rejected the new overtures made by the Purte, for a settlement of the differences between the two countries. The Prince of CANINO (a son of LUCIEN BONA.. PARTE) has met with a most gracious reception at the Prussian Court. The KING took advantage of the fact of the PRINCE being a Roman citizen to ex press to him his warm admiration for Pius IX., and for the reforms that prelate was introducing into his dominions. The almost enthusiastic manner in which the Protestant Monarch expressed himself to wards the POPE was a most agreeable surprise to the PRINCE. "We hope," says the Breslau Gazette, "that on his return to Rome he will inform the noble-minded Prelate that Germany is not, as has been asserted, inclined to be an obstacle in the path he has entered upon. Let the Roman press announce to the Italian people, that Germany is animated with a sincere wish for the success of the high endeavours of Pius IX., and that the hatred against the Tedeschi is an act of injustice towards the Ger man people in general. A new treaty between Spain and Prussia is spoken of. Madrid papers of the 13th and 14th have arrived. The QUEEN returned on the 13th to Madrid, and on the same day the KINC4, who had dined in Madrid, retired to the Prado. A Cabinet Council was to be held on the 14th, on the Palace question, and unless a reconciliation then took place PecHEco, I3AHAMONDE, and PASTOR DIETZ would retire, in which case a Salamanca and Serrano Ministry would probably be appointed, although it was con sidered riot improbable that MENDIZABAL might be called upon to form a Ministry of pure Progressistas. General CONCHA has arrived in Madrid. A Carlist conspiracy has been discovered in the Basque Provinces, and several persons have been ar rested in Alava and Guipuscoa.

KADER appear in the Journal des Debats MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet, and the sales of the week have been 24,130 bales, the stock being 381,050 bales, against 785,330 bales at this time last year. The features in the Bank of England statement of liabilities and assets for the week to the 14th instant, are these . A.bd-el-Kader, who at present occupies the Riff country, in the eastern part of Morocco, seems to be dis poegi to court friendly alliance with the Spaniards who garrison the forts on that side of the territory. His object is in all probability to obtain an easy supply of the pro visions and ammunition of which he has been frequently in want since his acts of hostility against the troops of Morocco have closed to him the ports of Tangiers and Tetuan. '1 he mountaineers of the Riff keep up a pet petual war with the officers of the ports. which have been in a continual state of blockade. Melilla was lately closely invested, and even cannonadt d. Abd-el-Kader, who had excited this attack, afterwards, in order to m inifest his power, came forward in person, as if to restore peace. He had an interview with the Spanish Governor outside the walls; his officers visited the place, and they have since been upon friendly terms. The garrison and population of Melilla were naturally much rejoiced at the cessation of the irksome blockade, and took advantage of the occasion to renew the trade with the interior of the country." A letter from Oran of the 16th says:— Notes issued £22,648,450 Increase Rest, increase. 13,462 Public deposits Increase 787,692 Other deposits, decrease Seven day and other bills, decrease 10,652 Government Securities, decrease 26,940 Other securities, increase 379,234 Notes reserved, increase Bullion .

A most startling circumstance has been generally ad verted to in the City this morning, which is nothing less than the embarrassment of a party of high stand ing, and well known at the Bank of England. We scarcely know how to deal with such delicate mat ters in a time of excitement, and again deem it most prudent to defer the mention of names until after 'Change hours. Losses in the corn trade are the im mediate cause of the stoppage, and from the standing of the firm, its liabilities are concluded to be large. The same house is stated to have made handsome profits last year in the same branch of business. We fear other houses will yet feel the effect of this, and the fine wea ther will give the coup de grace to the corn speculators. There has been scarcely any business doing in Stocks, and the occurrence above adverted to hashed no effect upon prices, a proof probably that the Bears have yet to buy in stock before they can square accounts, some of the preliminary arrangements for which are making this morning.

Thug the populations are in sensibly falling off from Abderrhaman, whose position is every day becoming worse." The following extract of a letter, dated Tunis, August 2, appears in the same journal : " The Bey is almost constantly at the grand camp outside the Goletta. Not only has he his tent set up, but he has built a small residence on the sea, which is approachable only by a bridge raised on piles, and run ning out 300 paces. Here the Bey gives audience every morning. All the Ministers have tents near that of the Bey. The camp is formed of six battalions of infantry, under the command of General Mouzabeth. The troops are frequently exercised under the direction of French instructors. Independently of the grand camp, there is another inside the Goletta, composed of infantry and artillery, at the centre of which, and facing the Palace, is also a large tent in which the Bey distributes justice three or four times a week, according to circumstances. It is the office of the chiefs of the tribes to denounce the crimes and offences of their subjects, and the culprits, with the complaii:ants and witnesses, are brought before the Bey. Justice is promptly rendered. The examiu• ing magistrate interrogates the accused parties, the com plainants, and witnesses, in open court, and his exami nation generally occupies but a very short time. The in furini-r then explains the case to the Bey, who listens with religious attention to all the details, and frequently puts questions himself to both parties, and then gives his decision. The sentence is carried into execution within ten minu°es after it is pronounced. Two 'Turkish frigates have been cruising for the last two days off the coast of Barbary. The Bey, appre.,ending that they might be forerunners of some hostile enterprise on the part of Turkey, immediately communicated his alarm to the Prince de Joinville by the steamer Lavoisier, which was lying in the harbour, and which immediately started to join the royal Admiral. At this moment the guns of the Goletta are sal u ti ng t h e J ena and Jupiter, which havejust arrived, being towed in by the steam frigates Magellan and Asmodoe. The Asmodi-.. has put about and gone back, but the Ma ge ll an remains w i th us. The arrival of a division of such respectable force, has greatly pleased the Bey." The Ministry of M. Guizar seems bent on ser vilely treading in the footsteps of the ministere deplo rable of MM. DE VILLELE and DE PEYRONNEY. Not content with endeavouring to sacrifice the University to the Jesuits, not content with becoming the mere humble tool of the Parti-Pretre, the GUIZOT Ministry must needs, like its prototype, run a• muck at the National Guard. Orders have been given that the National Guard of Versailles, instead of mounting guard every day, shall mount guard only on the Sundays and Mondays in each week. On Tuesday the National Guard at first refused to quit the place, but eventually withdrew and yielded the post to the troops of the line. In the course of the evening the people assembled and uttered seditious cries, but dispersed without proceeding to any overt act of violence. In 1826, the Villele Ministry dissolved the National Guard quietly —in 1830, the men forming the National Guard, so dissolved, expelled CHARLES X. from France. M. GulzoT, who has been Professor of History at the University, should understand something of the philosophy of the science.

MURDER.—On the Learned Judge taking his seat on the bench this morning, John Ramsay, described as a cheesemonger, aged 29, was placed at the bar charged, upon his own confession, with the wilful murder of Henry Williams in the Minories, 2 years ago. The prisoner is a decently dressed, unhappy looking man. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Clarke appeared for the pre• .. elqion. e n TT.. BoDKIN minutely stated the case against the prisoner. The facts have so lately appeared before the public, that it will only be necessary to give a mere synopsis of the statement of the Learned Counsel, and of the evidence adduced in support of it. The prisoner and the deceased, it will be recollected, about two years ago, had been drinking in the neighbourhood of the Tower. They left the public house together, and took a hackney coach in the Minories, for the purpose of conveying them home to their residences, in the neighbourhood of Gray's Inn-lane. They stopped the coach in Redcross-street, and had something to drink. He then drove them to Gray's Inn lane, where they gut out. They were both tipsy, and he noticed that one of them had a wound on his eye. He found blood on the cushion. A polict man who came up at the time they were entering the coach in the Nlinories, e.eclared that both were almost in a helpless state of intoxication, but neither seemed to have sustained any injury. The body of the deceased was examined by Mr. Fogarty, a surgeon, in the neighbourhood of the deceasi d's re sidence, Constitution-road, Gray's Inn-road, and he found a severe wound over the orbit of the eye, which renetrated to the brain, and had caused dtaU - i. Such a waut,d might have been caused by the ferule of ail umbrella. Two umbrellas were found in the hackney coach, and the ferule of the one Opposite the deceased, for the handle was downwards, was 'veered with blood, which had trickled downwards, which the Learned Counsel, said was tin important fact in favour of the pri soner, as it led to the inference that the e;eceased had fallen forward, and that the ferule had penetrated into his head. This witness stated that if the blow had been inflicted by a man, using an umbrella for his weapon, that the wound would have slanted u wards. The wound in the deceased's head was straight. 1)r. Quail), who was also txaniined, spoke to the probability of thy' wound having been so inflicted, but its infliction would cause an immediate loss of the voluntary powers. 't he blood might not flow halt' an hour after. Certainly a wound of the kind would have prevented a man from getting out and in-as he did in %Vhitecross-street. It will be recollected that the prisoner whilst intoxicated, or whilst labouring under the e:ff cis of intoxication, positively stated that he murdered the deceased, and that he committed the deed by a heavy blow on the head of the deceased, whilst lying on the ground insensible in the Minories. On reflection, however, he recanted, say ing, that, when he made the statement, he was suffering from delirium, and that he did not know what he was about. Mr. Justice ERLE, who had stated that a careful perusal of the depositions had led him to the conclusion that the case against the prisoner could not be main tained, and who had rt quested that the nature of the wound the deceased had received might be explained, here interfered, and left it to the jury to say, whether, in their opinion, the prisoner was guilty or Rot guilty of the off.nce imputed to him. The juty returned a verdict of Not Guilty, and the prisoner was discharged. BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

WORSHIP-STREET.—(THIS DAY.) Last night, a scene was enacted at the Britannia Saloon, Iloxton, hich almost het:gars description. The parties engaged in it were, with the exception of one individual, severally fined or imprisoned. It appears from the evidence of Butler, and other in dividuals connected with the theatre, that a disturbance took place at about half-past nine o'clock in the gallery, and the parties engaged therein w( re ejected. One of them, named Rawlings, on ids being secured and taken into custody, through mete vindictiveness, call e d out, when near the pit entrance, at the top of his voice, "Fire ! fire 1" Witness could not distinctly swear that he was the individual that actually gave the alarm of fire, hut he was the person pointed out to witness as the one who so cotawitled hich followed the cry 4 fire can himself. The scene w be hatter imagined than detc - . - d)eki ; shrieks were fol lowed by groans, the Litter pi. ,•• - z , ng from individuals who had even fallen upon by pr,oli.i who had let them selves drip trout the gallery, and bonnets, shawls t , nd hats were se: t: flying in all directions ; and but for the propri _Lao!, 10 assistants, fatal consequences would inevitably have been the result. Several were severely bruised. Mr. Lane, the proprietor of the eatablaraet, was
