her jib-boom. A Tuscan velanchero, and a
Sardinian vessel lost their misentopmasts.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company's coal hulk
Santa Anna sprung
.a leak on the night of the Bth.
The Growler arrived on the 6th from Tangiers,
having landed there the Morocco miners. She re-
ports a very heavy gale at Malta on the 7th, when
the Regent had not left, nor had the Hercules. The
Growler proceeds to Malta.
The Bosphorus (screw) has been dee from the La-
rant since tte sth ; fears are entertained for her
safety. The Lady Rowley is ashore on the neutral
ground—that is, to the south of the Spanish line or
gentry boxes. The Spaniards claim salvage for her,
and will not allow the Eogliah to get her off. The
governor has been applied to, but he declines inter-
Wog. A memorial is to go respecting it to the Sec o.
tare of State.
The Montrose, on leaving Lisbon, struck on the
west end of the North Catchops, at the entrance of
the Tagus, in 2j fathoms water (it being low water),
when going full speed, without stopping or apps-
really receiving any material damage. Bugio Fort,
E.S.E., St. Jailor. e, E. fN. No blame can be at-
tached to the commander of the packet, for the sole
cause of the accident is attributable to the ignorance
of the Portuguese pilot.
Our Lisbon correspondent sends up a copy of the
address to be voted in reply to the Queen's eptech :
I. The Chamber of Peers, highly appreciating the plc%
we which your Majesty deigned to manifest at the solemn
opening of the General Cortes of the Monarchy, comes to
deposit, at the feet of your Majesty's constitutional throne,
Ike due homage of its respect, fidelity, and profound ac-
knowledgment.
2. The Chamber of Peers is mash gratified at the public
tranquillity not having been disturbed since the last ',gists-
live aeration ; and, well assured that this is the first and prim-
, eipal condition upon which individaal happiness and the Im-
provement and prosperi7 of the state depend, it will couti-
-1 nee maiously to offer the just and loyal co-operation that
, shell be necessary for its cooaticuance.
3. The Chamber of Peers, partaking of the pipes senti-
ments which animate the royal heart of your Majesty, gives
aaceasicg thanks to divine providence for having preserved
th.se kingdoms from the scouryres which have so much
ant .tad other countries ; and directs humble and fervent
prat era to heaven for the continuation of the especial divine
protection, which has so wonderfully favoured the Portu-
guese monarchy.
4 The Chamber heard with great satisfaction, that your
Majesty preserved the closest relations of friendship with
foreign potentates; and that your Majesty's goverment,
improving this favourable disposition, had arranged that the
Portuguese flag beconsidered in the Passage of the Sound as
that of the most tavoured nation, and admitted into the
1 ports of Russia. Sweden, Norway, Holland, and Belgium on
1 terms of the most perfmt reciprocity, thus providing and es-
caring a greater extension, facility, and advantage to our
navigation and commerce.
5. The Chamber congratulates itself that tranquillity is
pre served in the colonies ; and it anxiously desires that the
dettering hopes which offer to the colony of Portuguese ems
grants from Brasil, recently established in the province of
Angola, mar be realised aad consolidated.
6 The Chamber sympathises with your Majesty in the
just sentiment of profound grief for the two outrages com-
mitted in the establishment of Mena; bet it hopes that
1 =7;; Celreair, tVingly pr ;rata in the
satin
Weiss sad dee re...reredos ; and will settle with the utmost
sere, that shall bit necessary, the integrity of the establish.
I ment, the sovereignty of the crown, and the dignity and dr
I emma of the Portuguese name.
7. The chamber will esansine, as it behoves them, the use
whisk yyoour Majesty's government has made of the different
nakerisedoss, which were conceded to it, aa4 the measures
saßisk it has taken to improve the credit and meet the public
aspeaditare as well as the estimate of the receipts sad /z.
popes of its' state, and the proposals which will be laid
helm them. Is this mesdames they will consider with
every care and dreentspection the true situation of the coon
try, to adopt jam, appropriate, and efikacious measures
which experience say have shown necessary to improve the
public service, sad to establish upon solid beset the definitive
erganisation of the public revenue.
' During the debate in the Chamber of Peers the
ministry declared their intention to submit, during the
eassion, a new law of election. The reply then, after
six days discussion, being pat to the vote, was carried
by a majority, there being for it 33 ; against, 18.
For the first time since the constitutional regime,
the estimates have been thus early presented, the re-
ceipts for 1860-61 being estimated at 7,414,000,000
'Reis, and the expenditure 8,938,000,000 Reis, leaving
a deficit of 1,600,000,000 Reis. The Queen, Don Fer-
dinand, and the ohildien, have gives up 168,260,000
Reis foe the service of the States for this year. It is
worthy of remark that the donation of the Queen is
the same as it was to Don John VI. when the country
was in a peculiarly prospering state, and possessed
Brazil.
