The BRITISH htss onmonneed publishing yesterday morning
at 6 ve o'clock.

LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 10, 102 S.

It MAI stated yestesday, with great confidence, that a
diplomatic note on fhc affairs of Pm tu nl, from the And
ti..rvercins to their respective Ambassadors at foreign
Court9s would almost immediately make its sppearscc:.

The purport of this Note would be, it was said, to express
their determinotion to put an end to the disturbed state of
Portugal, in order that no consequences might grow out
of it injurious to the repose of Europe, and the harmony
subsisting between the Cabinets.. For this purpose, Eng-
land, as the ancient ally of Portugal, was, in the first place,
to send troops to that country for the preservatior. of its
trdnquillity, and the support of the King's authority: but
it was added, the Note would further intimate, that if this
supply was insufficient, the Allied Sovereigns would, on
the request of his Most Faithful Majesty, furnish an ad-
ditional force themselves. We do not profess to be ac-
(maimed with the authenticity of this intelligence ; but
supposing it to be true, it is the best confirmation of the
opinion we have given on this question. France, who is'
the executor of the projects of the Holy Allies in "Western
Europe," is evidently desirous to take military possession of
Portugal. Iler command of the Peninsula will then be
complete, and she will finally have succeeded in accom-
plishing that which has long been an object of French
ambition: she will effectually, and for ever, have broken
the closely-cemented alliance which has for nearly two
centuries continued without intermission between England
and Portugal. We perfectly agree with the Courier,
that " it would be a more desirable course,' if prac-
ticable, to organise, by means of that influence'
which peculiarly belongs to our relations with Portu-
gal, a power sufficient to 'control the apprehended danger,
without recurring to the aid of foreign troops." But as we
absolutely doubt the practicability of this course, the only
alternative left is to give military assistance to such extent
as the exigency of the crisis may require. The French
troops are on the frontiers of Portugal, ready to march over
them on the first moment when the fears of the King may
induce him to call for them. If we wait to try the experi-
ment how much longer our aid can be dispensed with, we
.1
shall probably find its necessity superseded, and the fruits
of our tardy friendship ultimately njected. The nature of
our connection with Portugal is dissimilar from any subsis-
ting bee. wen any other two independent powers. Portu-
gal has been accustomed, in all her difficulties, to look tons
for relief, and she has never yet looked in vain. Our tem-
porary occupation of Lisbon could fairly excite no suspi-
' cion. Europe is used to ve Portugal rely upon England
for her national and political existence. Our interference,
therefore, in her affairs, at her own request, and
manifestly for no selfish purpose, could not be any
more open to misconstruction than any other bold
and vigorous act of policy. What would have been
the condition of England now, if these timid appre-
hensions had always prevailed in our intercourse with fo-
reign nations? We advise no rash or blind precipitation,
by which hostile feelings might be unnecessarily provoked ;
but let us not, by an excess of false prudence, tamely give
up the advantages which the united voice of Europe calls
upon us to retain.

The state of the Public Press in India, and the cir-
cumstances attending the suppression of the Cakutla
Jourmel, and the banishment of Mr. Buckingham, were
yesterday' brought under the consideration of a Gene-
ral Court of Proprietors, at the India House. The question
was opened by Mr. Douglas Kinnaird, in a speech which
lasted upwards of tbrca hours and a half. The Hon.
Proprietor fully stated the grounds of impeachment against
Mr. Adam, the temporary Governor of Calcutta. He
concluded' with moving for all the papers and correspon-
dence connected with the case of Mr. Buckingham. The
defence of the Indian Government was principally con-
ducted by Mr. Impey, who in an able speech satisfactorily
pointed out the eawntial difference between the constitu-
tion of society in India and in England. In the former
country it is absurd to talk of a public opinion. At pre-
sent, and probably for ages to come, if it remain under the
protection of England, it must be governed on principles
which no man would eiream of applying to this country.
A vast foreign dependency like out possessions in India,
inhabited by such a population, amid not too re-
motely situated to 'accrue again the theatre and
object of future contests, cannot be treated like
the Colonies we lave settled with the descendants
from our own stock. Into the latter, English laws and li-
berties cannot he too soon transplanted or too deeply In-
fixed. The colonists are a detachment from the great fa-
mily of Englishmen, and any attempt to deprive them of
the immunities of their fellow-countrymen would disgust
them and crush the adventure. Not so it is with such a
people as the Hindoos, with a religion and customs so firm-
ly rooted and so long established. They must be governed
as subjects—with justice and liberality we hope—but still
as subjects. If we call upon them to exercise their own
judgment, of which indeed they have none as to public
matters, we abdicate our sovereignty ; but, in reality, an
endeavour to throw open to the Indian population the be-
nefits of free discussion, would only be the signal for or-
ganising I,
discontent and instigating revolt. No well-wisher
' to India can contemplate with complacency the fall
of the British power in that country. Internal tran-
quillity, an impartial administration of justice, and a
fixed and moderate rate of taxation, are among the
meat obvious blessings which we have conferred upon
India, and they arc, perhaps, the only ones of which
she is yet succeptible. Fro:a them must follow a ge-
nerd improvement of the condition of the people ; and
finally knowledge and freedom. But several generations
of Hindoos must pass away before this consummation can
take place. Gradually she will be prepared for it. No friend-
ship could be more inauspicious to her than that which,
iu its haste to accelerate the march of events, would de-
prive
her of the protection of England. All the enlight-
cried men who have governed India have concurred in this
opinion. Mr. Kinnaird yesterday represented the regula-
tions respecting the Indian press, promulgated by the
i Marquis of Hastings, as never intended by that Nobleman
to be recognised as public laws. On the contrary, the
Ilonourable Proprietor states, " they were nothing better
than waste paper. He (the Marquis of flutings) gave
the children surrounding him a rattle to play with, and
they were satisfied." This, it must be confessed, is
placing the character of the Noble Marquis in no favour-
able light. What are we to think of the Governor-
General of eighty millions cf men, who issues or-
dinances to please the children about him, with inten-
tion that they shall remain mere waste paper ? But
it was proved by Mr. Impey that the opinion of the Noble
Marquis was decidedly hostile to the course followed by
Mr. Buckingham. The strongest notice sent to that
Gentleman by the Indian 'Government was drawn up by
the hand of: the Marquis of 'lssuing' himself. This fact
entirely rendered abortive all Mr. Kinnairtra dexterity.
Sir John Malcolm gave his eminent sanction to the proceed-
ings of the Indian Government, and the feeling was alto-
gether so strong against the complaint of Mr. Buckingham,
that the amendment for an adjournment sine die, was by ge-
neral consent withdrawn, in order that the direct negative
might be given to the question. An attempt by Mr. Muffle
to adjourn the debate to another day was defeated by a very
tr.ajotity. islr. Kinn:lira, however, announced, that

he had another requisition in hiA pocket, for the revival cf
the discussion on a future occasion.

We would direct the attention of our readers to the
letter of our Paris correspondent, in another part of our
columns. It contains information and hints of consider- I
able importance at this juncture. To what the secretly in-
creasing armament of France may be a prelude it might be'
a bold spirit of prophecy to predlrt ; but that it may throw
Europe again into a long scene of confusion is certainly
within the range of rational conjecture. It certainly be-
hoves our Cabinet to look stedfastl) at these preparative, ;
whether they are intended to aid the operation of a wide-
spreading military despotism, or to forward certain ether
views, by which the interests of Great Britain would be
more immediately endangered, futurity can alone disclose.
The courage and the resources of Great Britain arc fitted,
we think, to meet the event either way.

Yesterday afternoon, at a few minutes before six o'clock,
the King arrived at his palace in Pall-mall, in his travel-
ling carriage and four, from Windsor, escorted by a party
of Hussars. _

The Duke ofYork honoured the Earl and Countess of
Jersey with his company at dinner yesterday, at their re-
sidence in Berkeley-square, where there was a numerous
party to meet his Royal Highness.
Prince Leopold left town yesterday morning for Clare-
mont. His Royal Highness returned to Marlborough
house in the afternoon, and afterwards honoured the Mar-
quis of Lansdown with his company at dinner, at his house
in Berkeley-square.
Lord and Lady Liverpool left their residence, Fife
House, Whitehall-stain, sa Thursday. in a bcrouche and

Ma. Cs vi is very strongly rumoured, that the
eloquent Secretary for Forekn Affairs means to pay a visit
to his old friend mid emaciate in politics, the Marquis
the course of the ensuing autumn. We be-
lieve the Right Hon. Gentleman, though his family is
Irish, has never yet bees in this country himself.—Dublin
Freeman's Journal.

An unexpected difficulty has, we understand, arisen with
respect to the disposal of the Chaplain-Generalship. The
Secretary of %Vac had, it seems, u we mentioned some few
days ago, tendered this valuable piece of preferment to a
certain Very Rev. Dena ; a counter claim to the right of pre-
sentation has, however, een made on the part of the Lord
Bishop of London, and a caveat put in accordingly.—
Evening. Paper.
Government sent a fresh notice to the merchants in
the City yesterday respecting transports. Notice is now
given that a copper-bottomed vessel, of 300 tons, is wanted
immediately. As a gradual demand was the common
practice of Government during the war, when a consider-
able number of transports was required, the merchants
anticipate a similar 'occasion of notion en Ws occasion.

It is confidently stated that Mr. Monier is appointed to,
succeed Mr. Harvey, otn• Commissioner at Mexico, that
gentleman only having been appointed conditionally, as
domestic affairs of interest requirtd his speedy return.
We understand that Mr. Moiler would have left England
some time since on this mission, but for some misunder-
standing as to the footing of his appointment. It is not
true that Government is dissatisfied with the conduct of
Mr. Harvey.—Eresing Paper.
It is saia.that his Royal Highness the Duke of York iv-

stand, is appointed one of the Commlasioners'of the Irish
Revenue Inquiry. He takes the place of Mr. Frankland
L-wis, who tills a seat at the Edneation Board.—Dablin•
Paper.
OItANGE PAOCKSSIONs.—The public remember a
rout the Grand Lodge made, touching their
in listening to the repeated hints they received from PlO-
lit/11fIlt, and how they issued a Manifesto. in conse-
quence, to the affiliated Societies of Ireland, requesting
their brethren to desist from the public exhibition of what
they are plead to can their principles. By their lan-
guage at this pried, awd indeed ever skier, they intimated
clearly that their dasisting was rather in compliment to the
behests of the Grand Master and his myrmidons, than to
the Government of the country. Intleeil, they made, and
continue to make, no sestet of their heetility to the latter.
But, whether the commands of the Grand LAO were
issued in good faith, or whether they were only promul-
gated to save appearances, hitherto they have not been
much attended to. At all events, the, well-known wishes
of Parliament, and the Proclamation of the Grand Lodge,
:Lich is, among the Fotternity, a highdr authority, have
been set at nought by the Orangemen of Bandon. The Ist
of July, in that town, has, as usual, been signalized by
party banters, irritating music, brawling, and the most
brutal insults offered to the Catholic inhabitants. The
Magistrates do not appear to have pail the least attention
to the duties of their station. Flom an early hour until
ten o'clock at night the town was a scene of uproar and
confusion. We are glad, however, to say that no lives
appear to have loin lost, nor, with the exception if sen•
broken windows, does much mischief appear to be done to
the town.—Dubtio Evening Post.
EXTIRAORDINART.—The beau mosde I
are occupied will the extraordinary borsewbiping which
a noble General received from a post-boy, on the return
to town of the gallant General frbm the review at Houns-
low Heath. It appears from what our Correspondeut
states, that the post-boy had some cuuse of quarrel with an
individual of his own station, and that, mistaking the
gallant General for his adversary, he immediatelybela-
boured him with a long-whip. The gallant General had
no opportunity of retorting; he, of course, applied to the
persons veer him, who ofliscd to come forward in his be-
half. Some remonstrance was made to the post-boy, but
the knight of the whip would hear nothing. The gallant
General pursued his way to town, and no doubt will pursue
the post-boy, unless, finding out his mistake, the post-boy
will make that apology which a man of the gallant Gene-
ral's condition can receive, namely—a most condign
apology. Ilene the matter rests for the present; and we
need scarcely say that we have only our Correspondent's
authority (which we have never had occasion to doubt)
for the truth of the rumour as it has reached us.

We regret to learn that a gentleman was thrown from his
horse at the Review on Hounslow Reath, on Wednesday,
and killed on the spot. We have heard of no other dis-
aster.

Windham Saddler •is on his way to this city from
Glasgow, to make ap ascent in his balloon shortly after his
arrival, which id eAtected in the next week. A gantlet:um
will accompany Mr. Saddler in his aseent.—Duau Paper.
Hampton Races are fixed fur the 14th, lab, and I6th
instant. His Grace the Duke of Richmond and the lion.
Grantley. Lerkdcy are the Stewards. Some good sport is
expected. Several brar.chcs of the Royal Family, and a
long list of nobility, have signified their intention of being
present, should die weather prove favourable, ofwhich at
present there is every appearance.
HAN II AIV taT.—So vexatious a hay harvest can scarce-
ly be remembered. There Is a great crop in Emex, some
Of which has been more than double the usual expense,
and will in the end be but of inferior quality. It may be,
useful to hint, that salt is very beneficial at all times, but,
in such a season as the present in particular. It prevents
the hay from becoming mouldy and mow-burnt, and ren-
ders it more pleasant and nutritious to the cattle. indeed'
it has been repeatedly aoticeil, that horses and cattle will
prefer damaged hay which has been salted, to the best hay
in which salt has not been used. The following has been
found the best method of applying it :—To 20 loads of hay,
from four to six bushels may be applied, scattering as
equally as possible with the hand, about a quarterof a peck
or a little more on etch lazing of the rick. When bay is
housed-, the same direetions may be observed. Lord
Somerville recommended 2.111i5. of salt to each ton of bay,
sprinkled through a sieve. IVben hay is put together in a
damp state, as will probably be the case this year, at least
2.511 a. to *fibs. of salt ought to be used to each ton.

1341910ValitliTS IN GLASGOW.—We are glad to learn
that there/ is every probability of a suitable Exchange and
other public buildings being soon erected in this city, as a
requisition for a meeting on the subject is in course of sig
nature. We hear that the requisition is alreedypuraorously
and h:glily respectably signed.—West. tit Chronicle.
