LONDON, FRIDAY, MAacu RS, 1896.

Both Houses of Parliament adjourned last night for the
Easter recess, until Wednesday, Sth April.

The intelligence from l'ortugal, given in the French
Papers, contains scarcely any additional information. We
see no reason to retract the opinion which we originally
advanced, that IslamLea-Mania, in the event of Don
PE D 110.11 resignation, will ascend the throne of Portugal.
Her two sisters,who have been married to Spanish Princes,
are excluded by a fundamental law of the State, which
provides that " a daughter of the King marrying any
Prince or Lord of a foreign nation, shall not be recognised
either az Queen or Regent." Sir IVILLIAM A'Cou az has
bad several long interviews with the Portuguese Ministry,
and the Commander of the English squadron in the Tagus
has taken such measures as are proper to secure the tran-
quillity of Lisbon. An additional frigate with two brigs
has arrived in that port. The will of the late KING directs
that the Regency shall continue to discharge its functions
till the legitimate heir of the Crown shall give his orders on
the sulject. 'I he Corterier Francais asserts, on the autho-
rity of a letter from Lisbon, that DoN PEDRO was to be
proclaimed KING.
In Spain, it seems, the exclusion of the Queen of FOR.
TUG AL from the Regency has caused a popular tumult at
Madrid. The Council of State still continues to form
projects for excluding such persons from employments as
are not likely, to second them in their views ; but the KING
does not appear inclined to adopt their suggestions. It is
even supposed that he has a design of restoring the His-
cayans to all their ancient privileges and immunities. FER-
DINAND seems, in his opposition to the Apostolical party,
as well as in this last measure, to be governed by the in-
fluence of the French, whose interest it is to secure the
good will of the people of that province, as they can at
any time prevent a French army from penetrating into
Spain. The nature of the principal commotion' in Spain
has been a little misapprehended; as the danger arising
from the endeavours of the Constitutionalists is far less
formidable than that which is said to threaten FEZDINAND
from the partisans of DoN CARLOS. We learn that the
first and third battalions of the .sGth French regiment of
the line arrived at Toulouse, from Perpignan and Carcas-
sone, and set out on the 17th inst. ; the first battalion for
laca, and the other for St. Jean pied-de-Port.
Letters from the frontiers of Poland assert that the ar-
rests at St. Pctersburgh, and other towns of Russia, in-
creased every day, and add, " that it was impossible to
determine how far the ramifications of .he conspiracy might
extend, as a number of persons were implicated in it who
had no apparent connexion with the capital, but whose
names had been found in the lists seized among the papers
of the conspirators."

Accounts are given in letters from Trieste, of an attack
on Missolonghi, in which the Creeks had again succeeded
in repulsing the troops of Isamu 31 PAC

It is said to-day on 'Change that a considerable armament was
making in the ports of England, and that it was destined for the
Tagus. It was also affirmed that a popular tumult had taken
place at 31adrid on the day when they received in that capital the
news both of the death of the King of Portugal, and of the Dr.
cree which excluded Queen Charlotte from the Regency in favour
of one of her daughters.
The Echo du Midi states that the news from Catalonia confirms
the sentence and execution of 32 Revolutionists, who had landed
on the coast of Alteant. Ten others have experienced the same
fate, including Captain Iluan, the leader of die band. Colonel
Haien, who is severely (perhaps mortally) wounded, has not been
executed. Be will also be shot if he survives hie wounds.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.

Auoseuao, MARCH IL

We have just learned by expresses despatched from Vienna, that
all the public funds have experienced a very great decline. The
Meta Myles have fallen to 1134, and Dank Shares to 990. This
fall had been prepared by very alarming reports respecting the
health of the Emperor Francis, chose situation had become much
worse within these few days s but it was immediately produced by
the failure of a great jobber, N. Appel, in consequence of which
a quantity of stock had beim thrown on the market.

LEGHORN, 111Auctt 8.

In the muse of last month a considerable cargo of wheat was
sent from this port, consigned to Zmte by the Greek Committee at
Geneva, to be sent to the garrison of Itlissolonghi. Considering
this favourable news for the Greeks, which is confirmed from all
quarters, there is reason to hope that this cargo has reached its des-
tination. The same Committee sent last autumn to Napoli di
Romania 8,000 muskets on the French model, with the necessary
accompaniments.
