pan into a law. He prayed the attention of the
Might Hon. Home Secretary to this subject, which
was not only important in itself, but rendered espe-
cially so by the recommendation of the highly en-

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

LISBON MAIL

1.11110111, MAT IS.
Several important subjects have been discussed
in the Cortes during the last fortnight.
In the sitting of the 30th April, the order of the
day was the opinion of the Diplomatic Committee
on the withdrawing of the troops from Monte Video.
The Committee state, that, from the documents
laid before them, it appears that the original oc..
cupation of Banda Oriental by the Portuguese
troops had 110 other object than to secure the lives
and properties of the subjects of Portugal on the
((miner, at a time of anarchy and disorder in the
South American provinces; but this occupation
bring now useless and incompatible with the prin-
ciples of justice which animate the Portuguese ns.
lion, which de►ires to give the whole world a deci-
sive proof flint it knows how to respect the indepeu.
deuce of other nations as well as to defend its own,
the Committee recommend thst the Government
withdraw the troops from Monte Video, assigning
them such a destination which shall seem proper,
and that the Commander of these troops should he
ordered to take measurer, in concert with the au-
thorities of the province, that the evacuation might
take place in good order.

A very long debate arose on this subject. Some
members affirmed that the country in question be.
longed to Portugal, us far as the Rio de l'luts,
and would have the north bank of that river con-
stantly occopied by Portuguese troops. Others
supported the opinion of the Committee, and al-
leged that•the occopation of Monte Video was
unjust, and consequently impolitic, and that the
possession of it would be of uo use to the rich and
immense kingdom of Brazil. The debate was
continued at great length in the following sit-
ting, when sonic members proposed to adjourn
the decision till they had more information from
America. The Cartes, however, resolved, that
the sitting shoukl be permanent till the ques.
lion was decided, and whet► it was judged to be suf-
ficiently discussed, the President put the question,
whether the opinion of the Committee should be
approved in the form in which it was now given,
and it was decided in the negative by 84 votes
to 28.

The Cortes still continue the discussion of the
Constitution, the commercial' relations with Brazil,
and the reform of the institution castled Foraes.

During the sitting of the 519th April, M. Fel-
gueiras, the Secretary, interrupted the debate to re-
quest leave to teed • dispatch from Senor Ca►velho.
ilia Minister of Justice, which he stated to be of the
highest importance. This dispatch states, that be-
ing responsible for the public safety, he finds it ne-
cessary to acquaint the Cones that there are in the
capitol principally, and also in other parts of the
kingdom, individual* who are extremely dangerous:
That though 110 proof had yet been obtained
of admit climes in the rigorous arose of the
law, jet circumstances of public notoriety, to-
gether with the character of the iodividuals in
question (though checked by public opissims).
renders it advisable to separate them from
others with whom they have daily iiitercouree.
Mao; grounds recommend the measure. in the
absence of certain and indubitable proof, which can
authorise the action of the judicial power. The
Gov/eminent. however, needs the aid of the Legis-
live power to take this step. This communication
was immediately referred to the Committee of the
Constitution, which, after deliberating on the
subject, advised that the Government should be
authorised fur the space of one mouth, for the
preseivatiou of public tranquillity, to proceed to-
wards certain individuals without the legal formali-
ties, by removing from one pert of the kingdom to
another any individuals. whether private person or
public officer, that it may judge necessary to
remove for the public tranquillity; these pre-
cautions not to affect the reputation of those who
shall not in the sequel be brought to legal trial, the
sole object bring to prevent the evils which would
produce the greatest calamities; sod lithe Govern.
went cannot. in the time prescribed. attain the
object. it may apply to the'Cortes. The opinion
of the Committee was samiiisouly approved, and

An oicial onsiier given 'to the Miuivter of Justice

A Flanders Mail arrived at a late hoer last night
with papers f►om Brussels to the 48th instaat.—
The followiug are extracts:—

The result of the mission of M. de Terischcff,
who is arrived here, was akeady known from his
principal Secretary, who was here a week before
him. The Powers of Europe will take, it is said,
measures in common with respect to Turkey is
concert with Russia, which, it is asserted. has
engaged not to Oct separately in this affair.
M. de Lebeseltern and Sir Charles Bigot are vet),
active, and hive fregoent conferences with Counts
Nesselrode and Caps d'lsiria. The Emperor Alex.
ander is mid to be invited by the Emperor Francis
to a Congress. The Court of Vienna has proposed
the Court of London arbitrator in the differences
between Russia and the Porte.

It seems thin our Cabinet has, for the present,
abandoned the idea of attacking Turkey. Ali the
preparations for the Emperor's Journey are made.
He will go, it is thought, by way of Willis, to War•
saw, and then to N'iesina and Italy.

The second reading of the Roman Catholic
Peers Bill, which stood for this day in the House
of Lords, was yesterday postpooi d, on the motion
of the Duke of PORTLAND, until Friday, the *lst
of June. The ground assigned for the delay
was the absence of Earl Glair, in cousequeoce of a
domestic etlliction (the death of his mother), and
of another Noble Lord, who was expected to take
an active part in the debate, 'beret from in-
disposition. It was stated by Lord ROLLS, is op-
position to the motion for the postpoeement, that
for the convenience of the Bishop. it should be
limited traThuraday next, the day after Ascot races.
This amendment excited some laughter, in conse-
quence of its association with the turf; but it was
an evident misconception of the motive of the
Noble Lord, who distinctly Hated, that the delay
proposed would interfere with the Visitations of the
Bishops in their several sees.

We stated yesterday that a meeting wart held on
Wednesday of the Subscribers to Lloyd's, to con-
side, the propriety of voting a sum 615004 to the
funds raising in aid of the distressed Irish, and that
the proposition► was rejected. It appeared front a
previous notice of the Committee for managing the
affairs of this House, that it (the Committee) did
hot exactly approve of the intended vote; and in
consequence of this extraordinary determination,
there was a numerous meeting of the opposers of it
of the requiitioniats, who felt themselves bound in
honour and humanity to support it; and of the Dee-
*rob, who cared little for the Irish, the Committee,
or airy thing else.

The subject was proposed by Mr. DEWAR, is cer•
tainly very feeling sad appropriate terms; he made s
strong appeal to the sympathy sad liberality of the
subscribers present, mud concluded by proposing a

leo seconded by Mr. 80111114/110, sod combated by
the worthy Chairman (Mr. ../illaanirarr), who gave
it Isis most decided opposition. The meeting be-
am, impatient towards the close of the Honourable
Gentleman's speech, and the question being called,
produced • thew of hands spinal the grant, and the
meeting broke up.
There was a most remarkable egotism in the
cooduct of the opposition given to this vote. The
subscribers were favoured some drys previously
with a public notice in their reading-room, con-
tsioing a speech of Mr. MARRYATT. their Chair.
'mn, upon a similar occasion some two years since.
The business of the day was opened by Mr.
AItaTATT, in a phillipic against the general
priaciple of such an appropriation of their funds.
This was a speech preparative. After the Secre-
tary hid read the requisition. and before the Mover
had said a word, Mr. 114...AllaTATT favoured the
subscribers with a second speech, or speecls pre.
cursive ; and after the motion had been made and
wooded, the meeting were illumined by a third.

The exertions of Mr. Omni, of Lanark, for the
improvement and happiness of the social system,
are at length beginning to be felt. It is difficult to
overcome inveterate habits sod prejudices. These
difficulties Mr. Owen has surmounted ; but to
attsio this end great perseverance would have bee.
of little avail if not supported by solid end sub-
stantial-principles. The British end Foreign Phi-
lanthropic Society for the permanent relief of
the labouring classes acknowledge themselves in-
debted to that gentleman, by their adoption of
the leading parts of his system. It appears
by an advertisement iu front of our Pieper,
that the subject will be brought forward to-morrow
at Freemisons• Hall, and WC need only refer to the

were as low as 6i, but afterwards rose to 64ii; the
squirt was generally discredited, and the best-
informed persons altogether looked upon it as a
fabrication. Indeed the near approach of settling
day strengthened the suspicion that it was done
to affect the market this day. If we do not give
the minute delude of the Russian 1000, it must
Dot be inferred that we are not folly informed
upon the subject. The fact is, that the aunouuce.
meet of the foreign loons in the English Papers
is prohibited by an Act of Parliament of a very
we're penal character. The provincial papers
of England have cruelly 'offered from an inadver-
tent violation of this stature. With this warning
before our eyes, we should be inexcusable if we fell
nits the like error.
