A French markt arrived on as 21st, bringing an edictal notiti.
cation of thewequiseoenee of the leen* Government In the
ebeingenwhlch have taken place in Portugal. Although dth fart
wad already known, yet it had never before bees ollebilly an-
nounced. immediately after, M. de Manlier sews this notiti-
, Wits% a Council of Ministers was issembled. h tat a long time,
04 all the Ministers, except M. Caktinarde, were of opinion that a
strioneutrality ought to be maintained, as regarded Portugal.
, On the same day the weak of the Council wu submitted to his
Majesty.
It was expected that his Majesty would sanction the opinion of
hie Ministers, but he orderal the subject to be laid before a Council
of State, who accordingljkinet the day begets yesterday, yesterday,
and to-day, but have not some to any decision. This circumstance
has infused new hopes hue the Apostolic party, but these hopes
have been considerably damped' by the arrival of the Russian
cattier, which, as Is known, brought the intelligence of the ad-
hesion of that Power to the new order of things in Portugal.
Some diborders took place Pest week at Ildefonso. They were
provoked by the body guard, who following the example of the
Royalists volunteers, upon several points of the Peninsula, had
met at the coffee-bowaes in a riotous manner, and cried " Live
the Ring without the Chambers !" " Devil to tie Negroes!"
" Down with the Ministry !" In the evening they went in mul-
titudes to the theatre, where the same tumult and the same cries
were repeated. Summary proceedings have been taken in this
matter, and:one Colonel and Captain, recognised as the authors and
promoters of the tumult, have been condemned to four years' im-
prisonment in the Fort of Penis de San Pedro.

Again, the police have learned that the Royalist Volunteers of
Madrid, who were to perform the duties at the palace on the Ist
of October next, being the anniversary of his Majesty going out
from Calais, had on the same day repeated the same riotous con.
duct of the body guard. This circumstance has occasioned mutt
embarrassment ; for it is not known in what way to avoid these'
disorders, nor on the other hand can the Government venture to
refuse these ♦ilunteers an honour, which has been granted to
them for the last two years.
The Portuguese soldiers who are on the Spanish territories re-
czive provisions only front the Spanish Government, no money be.
ing given to them. This has created great discontent among them.
The following is a letter received from Valencia, dated 21st Sep-
tember :—" The scene which this city has presented since the pro.
mulgation of the Portuguese Charter has been calculated to excite
feelings of horror and pity. Until that period, there were con-
stantly a great number of persons restrained of liberty on account of
political opinions; but since the publication of the Charter the
most honourable men in the city have been imprisoned, and they
are daily sent to a kind of Bagne (a Turkish slave prison), and
which has hitherto been destined for malefactors only. The usual
means by which the city and the roads have hitherto been cleansed
have been suppressed, and men of respectability, whom General
O'Donnell had decreed to the punishment of the galleys, are
employed in this kind of work, after which they ore taken back
to the Bagne, amidst the insults of the populace, and very often
after having been beaten with cudgels. Some of them have pre.
ferred selling their property at every sacrifice, and have by that
means obtained their liberty. Others would have done it, but
their property was not !sufficient to satisfy the cupidity and ava-
rice of their •onnentors, and they have in consequence been
obliged to suffer all kinds of cuttage, violence, and ill-treatment."

(EXTRACT PROW A PRIVATE LETTER.)

It is auetted. that Don Miguel has been invited, by a note from
his sister. the Infante Regent., to give in a formal declaration, in
three days, relative to his taking the oath to the Constitutional
Charter granted to Portugal by his brother Don red, o. It is added,
that Don Aliguel sent his answer to Lisbon on the 17th of
September, in which, without formally protesting against the
Constitution, he declares that he has addressed himself to
his brother, the Emperor of Brasil, respecting his own rights
to the Regency during the absence or minority of the Mo.
notch, and that he expected an answer. The Prince con.
eludes his lettrr by declaring that he will regulate his conduct by
tha counsel of his illustrious pratector, the Emperor of Angola, who
had not vet returned to Vienna. The Portuguese Minister at
Vienna. Baron de Villa Sem, sent this answer to Lisbon by a
courier who set off from hence on the 17th instant.

A paragraph in the Belfast Chronicle informs us that
Lord PALM ChSTOIK has employed a great number of the
peasantry on his Irish estates in bringing into cultivation
a large tract of uncultivated bog and morass near Mulls-
more, where his Lordship has joined the Board of Fisheries
in building a pier to afford a protection to the vessels in
Donegal Bay. It is also his Lordship's intention, we are
informed, to have a railway to Belleek, so as to connect
Enniskillen with the Atlantic. These designs, we will
venture to say, with all due respect to his Lordship, are
more likely to prove beneficial to the country than those
mining associations to which he bad before directed his
attention. It is singular that landholders do not perceive
the practicability of augmenting the value of their estates
by increasing the facilities of communication. There are
spots in Great Britain, not twenty miles distant from each
other, between which there is not less than 30 per cent•
difference in the price of transportable commodities; and
while our merchants trade for trifling profits with foreign
countries, many hundreds of miles distant, it is an un-
doubted fact that a greater profit might almost alirays be
obtained by restoring the balance of prices between places
at short distances along our own soasta, and still more in
the interior of the country. In connexion with this we insert
to-day an account of the Stockton and Darlington Railway,
to which we would particularly call the attention of our
readers. Unfortunately, most of the useful projects of the
late period of commercial excitement have been swept away
along with those which were absurd and ridiculous. The
railway to which we now allude was completed by indivi-
duals belonging to the Society of Friends—a set of men
not apt to be roused by the mere appearance of advantage,
nor liable to be depressed by imaginary obstacles. It is to
be regretted that our mercantile speculators did not more
generally possess their persevering character. We sincerely
lament the discontinuance of the schemes for the construe-
tion of railways in particular ; but we doubt not that the
example of such men as Lord PALM FASTON will recall the
attention of the public to this important subject. The
landed proprietors who wish to leave an improved estate
to their families ought to seize the opportunity of the
present distress, for the construction of useful works, and
the amelioration of their lands, by every means in their
power. The moneyed men, whose capital is superabun-
dant,
might profitably invest • portion of it in this way
always with due caution in not overdoing this branch, as
well as otl:ers, by employing capital in a manner which will
not be productive of revenue.

CITY, SATURDAY EVENING.
The British Stock Market has displayed an invincible
determination to keep its price to-day, Consols having
opened at 80L, and closing at 80!, I, for the Account, which
terminates on Thursday next, and for November at 8016.
During the day, in consequence of some powerful opera-

limo on thorrter the Bears, bargains were done as low
is 791; this impression, however, was but momentary,
_ _

for, finding then was no chance of keeping them down, they
abandoned the field to their more successful opponents.
The state of the Revenue has again been matter of grave
promulgation, at a default of irrecoverable amount. The
authority upon which this statement was made was alto-
' griller supposititious, and was received, as it deserved,
with contempt. It is quite ridiculous to see the profound
knowledge which some pretend to have on this subject—
surpassing, indeed,_ that of the official authorities whose
duty it is to prepare the accounts in question. An advance
has taken plane in India Stock, which has reached 2t13,
but Bonds and Exchequer Bills are at last quotations.
The never-ending question of Mexican remittances has
again been brought in aid of speculation in these Bonds,
which have varied about one and a quarter per cent. They,
however, recovered the quotation of 6', with a very
steady appearance. A stronger excitation in respect of
Colombian Bonds has taken place to-day than for some
time past, bargains having been done from 3Si to 36. The
anticipation of yesterday, that, in spite of the warlike ap-
pearances in Venezuela, an accommodation would take
place, is likely to be realized ; the accounts by the Lee-
ward Island mail stating a report that Peet had relin-
quished his l*rpose, and that, consequently, peace wa►
restored throughout the Colombian Republic. Credit.
however, was not given to the full extent of this declara-
tion, as it was said the news from La Guayra was not
sufficiently decisive. One thing, however, is certain, that
BOLIVAR and PA ez are in communication, for despatches
had been forwarded from Bogota at a very late date. In
consequence of the declaration of the principal towns of
Venezuela against the proceedings of I's Ez, some con-
siderable desertions are said to have taken place in his army,
which is rather a fatal symptom under the circumstances in
which he is placed. At the close of the Market, however,
the doubts thrown around the probability of an amicable
adjustment had sent the Bonds down to 344.
The Share Market is in more activity than has been the
case lately, Real del Monte, Tlalpuxahua, and Bolanos,
showing an advance of from five to ten pounds per share.

The Stockbroker who took upon himself the alteration
of Mr. IVETSNHALCB list of prices has published a
letter in explanation of the reasons which induced him so
to act. Re states in substance, that, after the close of the
Market on Tuesday, a person came to hint with a certain
quantity of French Rentes, fur which he wanted an imme-
diate purchaser, and that he took them on his own respon-
sibility at a price which he admits was below that of the
Market, but denying is tufo that the respectable gentleman
for whom he does business on commission had any thing
whatever to do with the transaction in question, or was at
all aware of its having taken place. As the matter is be-
fore
the Committee of the Stock Exchange, doubtless they
will do that which is most fitting to maintain the character
of the body. Whether any effect was intended to be pro-
duced in Paris by the alteration, they must be the most
competent judges of; at any rate, the circumstance of alter-
ing the list cannot be too highly condemned. It never can
be admitted for a moment that any individual shall, after
purchasing stock at his own valuation and in secret, send
that forth to the world as the price which regulated the
market at its close. A more barefaced irregularity, to use I
the mildest expression of which the transaction is suscep- I
tible, was never practised by a person claiming the stamp
of respectability.

WINDSOR, OCT. 8.

.
During the week, his Majesty has taken his usual rides

rence dined with the Duchess of Kent in the afternoon,
and returned to Bushy in the evening.
Sir Frederick Adam, the Lord high Commissioner of
the lonian Islands, returned to town on Thursday night
from Cirencester, where Sir Frederick had been on a
visit to Earl Bathurst, his Majesty's Secretary of State
for Colonist Attirs, previous to Sir Frederick's return
to the lonian Isles.

'TIE MANCHESTER BRANCH ESTADLISHMENTOF TILE
BANK OF ENGLAND.—The Gozeite of Saturday says that,
in noticing the subject, we have "omitted to mention that,
contrary to the practice of all other bankers to pay their
notes in every place in which they have an establish-
ment, the branch hank will not give gold in exchange
for Bank of England notes." This sentence is not
very clearly expressed. We presume, however, that what
our contemporary means to say is, that the bank here
will not, as a matter of course, pay in gold the notes
of the parent establishment. We take it for granted that
the fact is as he states, and we should think nobody has
ever supposed that it would he otherwise. It certainly
could never answer as a srculation for the Bank of Eng-
land to establish branches, particularly in such a district
as this, if it vas liable to he called upon, at any or all
of them, to pay in gold, without warning, the largest
amount of notes which could possibly be scraped to-
gether and presented. We wonder, however, where the
" most accurate editor" of the Gaz,.tte learned that it was
" the practice of all other bankers to pay their notes in
every place in which they have an establishment." The
fact is directly the reverse. So far from its being as he
states, bankers cannot be compelled to pay their notes, even
al the places Where they are issued, if they choose to make
them payable elsewhere, far less at every place where they
have branches. The bill introduced by the Marquis of
Lansdown, during the last Session of Parliament, to pro-
vide for making country notes payable at the places where
they are issued, was withdrawn. Payment of the notes of
branches of the Bank of England may, however, be de-
manded at the parent establishment, though the former
are, as we think, very properly exempted from the obliga-
tion Of providing for the latter.—Manchester Mercury.
