" The new Kersey appear to be acting with as excess of
patriotism, in their endeavours to eradicate any symptom
of corruption which may exist in the country. During the
last week a very large number of persons have been arrested
in this city and other places ; the exact cunt thereof is isei-
.kowwas. Never were the powers of the 1 tettaisit lon carried to
greater extent; the individuals lake■ up, consist of several
of the male and female nobilky, priscipal Friers, and an
immense member of Ilereigaewi ; ancougst them some Irish-
men ; is short, soot but the English appear to have been
exempted. They have out had any charge made agaiust
them ; but as suspected persons. ordered is hold themselves
in readineas to tabs& leniently fur the Porteguese colonies
We cannot bat approve every precaution of t►is nature, how.
ever we may regret the situation of several at the iodividuals
whose truly fault is, that they see foreigners ; amongst these
is nor friend Mr. Caaihiaso. The Soglisle:Payneaster-lienernl,
who has been living with him the last two years, and who
has his offices in the palace 4r. C. occupied, offered to the
Government to give personal and monied security to any
smoant: but the utmost lie could obtain, •as perinissiou for
Lim to embark for England, which he avails himself of by
to mocruw's packet.
