PA Rl9, Oct. 3.—The Duchess of Berri and her
infant, in the words of the latest bulletin, " leave
nothing to be desired." The child enjoys excellent
health, and the Princess is rapidly improving.
Congratulations pour into the King, from every
part of France, on the birth of the young Bourbon.
The Cortes of Spain have received addresses front
a number of the municipal bodies throughout the
kingdom, congratulating them upon the suppression
of the seditious movements which threatened the
capital on the 7th of last month. It is said that the
Political Chief of Murcia has arrested the Superior
of a Dominican convent in that city, upon whom
were found some proclamations ready printed,
exciting the people to a counter-revolution, and
apprizing them that foreign troops had arrived to
rescue the King from his present thraldom.
REVOLUTION AT LISBON.
Treskstatiox fs ens the Purtxgreae Official Gairtte.
" Lisbon, Sept. 15.
" Long live King John Vl.l Live the Royal House
of Braganza! Live our Holy Religion I Live the Cortes,
who are to make our new Constitution 1

" Such were the cries which were this day heard in
our city, amid the transports of the most lively enthu-
siasm. These exultatioits have calmed the apprehen-
sinus of some timid Portuguese, and the unanimous
voice of the nation 11.13 extinguished only the spark of
civil war. At length we have obtained a just liberty ou
this day, doubly memorable, because it is the day of
our restoration, and because our regeneration renders us
worthy of the friendship of the European nations, and
of our former immortal glory. The fidelity of the
Portuguese remaining pure and inviolable towards our
august Monarch, his family will unite more closely the
bonds which connect the King with the people, who,
through the instrumentality of their Corms, are about
to apply an efficacious remedy for their calamities, and
to show themselves worthy of their Monarch. This
important event has been carried into effect with perfect
order and profound tranquillity.
" Towards 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the regiments
of the line in garrison, having their respective officers
at their head, rushed out of the barracks, making the
air resound with the sacred Muak above mentioned, and
formed in the square De Rocio, where they were quickly
joined by all the other arms, eomprehendtng artillery,
infantry, militia, mariners, Inc. and by a vast multitude
of the people of every class. The Marshal de Camp
Rezende headed the troops. A message was sent to the
most honourable Juin de Pavo (Proctor of the People),
to acquaint him that the people required his presence.—
He instantly set out in his close carriage, with his secre-
tary, and drew up the blinds to show himself to the
people, who greeted him with the loudest demonstra-
tions of homage, by rending the air with their acela-
' orations until his entry into the Governor's Palace.
" The people then shouted with one accord, and
demanded the installation of the new Provisional Go-
vernment, composed of upright, intelligent, and patriotic
men, and after having approved or disapproved of those
who were successively proposed to them by Jinx de
Pavo, finally fixed upon the most excellent and most
illustrious Principal Freyre, Count St. Payo, Count de
Rezeride, Count de Panaziel, Lieutenant-Gen. Azedo,
and Herman() Rraancamp, the younger. Messengers
were instantly slespatched in search of the four members
chosen, who were in the city, and expresses for Princi-
pal Freyre and Gen. Azedo, who were then at a short
distance front Lisbon.
" Orders were next sent in haste to various military
points. The most important were transmitted to the
governors of the towers of Balm and 13arria, charging
them not to .sullvr any ship to pass without au express
order of the new Regency, and to fire a royal salute.—
The new Govertiment also ordered Count Hirhaeina
not to make any movement, and to remain with his
troops in the position which he occupied until further
directions. Deputies were likewise sent at the same
time to the Govertainent of Oporto, and to the army of
the North, to apprize them of the revolution which
had just been effected in the Government, and to invite
them to act in concert with 014! new Regency, for the
general good of the nation. All this was done with sit
much unanimity and celerity, that it appeared to hate
been the.result of mature deliberation. Lt the delirium
occasioned by a sudden emancipation from long oppry!,-
siott, which among other nations has produced civil
Commotions, bloodshed, and death, the Portug,uete
people have not been guilty of any taunt, insult, or
outrage upon a single individual. ' Live his Nlajesty,
Religion, the Cortes, the Military, the Nation l' were
the oudly words which have immortalized this memo'.
a ble scene.
" At night the whole city was illuminated as by
magic ; the streets were crowded with people ; the cm-
zens mutually congratulated each other, saying, '
resume our national dignity ; our voices will now rcacii
even to the throne; our representatives will prove theist-

sures of accomplishing the consolidation of our new

" We hastened to acquaint our readers this morning with the
ao:ouchenient of the Duchess of Berri. They will read with
pleasure the details we have collected. The first symptoms of
the pains had hardly manifested themselves, when her Royal
Highness sent word to the King; the physicians were also in.
formed, as well as the witnesses appointed by the King. but her
Royal Highness was almost alone when she gave birth to a
Prince. At the critical moment her Royal Highness, arming
herself with extraordinary courage, ordered that the operation
should be suspended till the witnesses, taken from the persons
present in the palace, were called. Some National Guards on
duty at the Tuileries immediately repaired to her Royal High-
ness, and it was in their presence, and in that of the Marshal
Duke of Albufera, who had hastened to the spot, that the deli-
verance of her Royal Highness was completed. It was 35 min.
:2 a. in., as appears by the following bulletin published this
morning:—

" Their Royal Highnesses Monsieur and the Duke and
Duchess of Angouleme repaired to the Duchess of Berri, at the
first news of her situation, and never quitted her. The King went
to visit the Princess at half past tire o'clock ; their interview was
most affecting: it was at this moment that the King, approaching
the young Duke of Bourdeaux, rubbed his lips with a clove of
garlick, thus renewing the trait of Henri d'Albert to his grandson,
our good Henri IV.
' " Already at three o'clock, the hotels of the Garde, du Corps
of the King and of Monsieur were illuminated.
•• At four the court-yard of the Tuileries was orowded with
the carriages of the olhicers of state, and of the household of the
King and the Princes.
" 'At five the Duke of Orleans, and the Ambassadors of Spain
and Naples, came to the palace.
•• At the moment when the discharge of 24 cannon announced
the birth of the Duke of Bourdeaux, 12 men of each of the corps
which formed the guard of the Palace were admitted into the
interior of the apartments to see the august infant.
66 The King received in the morning the congratulations of the
Princes and Princesses of his family, of the ministers, the mar-
shals, the presidents of the supreme courts, of the prefect and
Diaper, of Paris, and the officers of all the corps, The crowd was
immense. His Majesty desired the persons to be introduced who
were present at the birth. His Majesty repaired to the chapel to
bear watts with Madame and the Princess. On coming out his
lUa,jesty appeared at the balcony, and was saluted with cries of
Vivc k Roil a thousand times repeated. His Majesty having
shown a desire to speak, profound silence instantly succeded the
loud demonstrations of joy, and the King, in a firm and sonorous
mice, expressed himself in these terms:—
•• • ikly Children,—Your joys increase mine a hunched fold—a
child is born to us all---(interrupted by acclamations). this child
will be one day your father : he will love you as I love you, us
all my friends love you.' These words electrified every heart,
and the acclamations redoubled. The young Prince has been
aa dope this morning, and he will be called Henry Charles Fer.

issued an ordinance, announcing the happy event, and inviting
the inhabitants to illuminate their houses this evening. The

orders the re-establishment of the Chapter of St.

arrival.

HAMEURGII, SEPT.-Our journals contain a pa-
per without a signature, dated the frontiers of Savoy,
Sept. 4, which purports to be an address from the
I'iedmontese to his Majesty the King of Sardinia,
requesting him to give them a constitutional govern-
ment. In this paper the petitioners express their
firm attachment to his Majesty and his illustrious
house, and their confidence in the wisdom which
always presides in his councils ; and have awaited
since the regeneration of Spain what his Majesty
might determine.
But events anticipate us; the changes in Naples
affect us too nearly; the Neapolitans arc Italians
like ourselves, but their revolution has become a
family concern.
VIENNA, SEPT. 16 —We have this moment re-
ceived intelligence that the Neapolitan Prince
Cimitele had got a declaration from Prince Metter-
nich to the following eflect7—" That the great
Powers of Europe were perfectly agreed not to
recognise the actual state of things in the kingdom
of the Two Sicilies, because this state of things had
been only introduced by force of arms In conse-
quence, these Powers had deciced on not receiving a
plenipotentiary or minister on the part of a superior
authority which was established by force of arms."
It was after receiving this declaration that the
Prince ?e Cimitele quitted Vienna yesterday, where
he had passed snore than fifteen days, and proceeded
ou his route for Naples.

tweet' II and 12, a file was discovered in the tipper part
of Dr. Cruchou's house, which communicated to every
part of the building in so short a spire or lime, that the
utmost exertions of the inhabitants were of no ava:l ;
scarcely any thing was saved. The want of water ren-
dered it impossible to stop the progress of the fire, and,
unfortunately, their are no engines in the city. The sea
breeze coning in at the sante time, cau►ed the Names to
take a nortli-easterly'direction, and ten squares of the
richest, most populous, and best built part of the city-
were in akw hiatus in ashes. Where lately stool hun-
dreds of shops tilled with merchandise, ere now smoking
ruins. Such was the luny of the devouring element, that
upwards of 1500 houses have been totally destroyed.—
With the Jest, fiction of the houses and the property
contained in them, the loss is moderately calculated at
,13.i0,000 of dollars. Oilier letters estimate the loss at
from 3,000,000 to 4,000,000. Although hurt-au-Prince is
watered by a number of small 'Meatus, some of which
run through the middle of the streets, no water was to
be had, all the wells having been slopped about two
hours before the fire broke out. The soldiery, instead of
keepiaig order and assisting to save the endangered pro-
Periy, employed themselves in indiscriminative plunder;
and when the President Boyer arrived from the country,
he immediately withdrew the troops, and established
order, by leaving the city to its fate. That the fire WAS
the wools of incendiaries there cannot be a doubt ; fur
since Omit dreadful day, several attempts have been made
toll re the town. 'rile day before the confitgration there
wet atvattempt made to lire the 4111V11:11; where several
millians of pontos of gunpowder, and immense quantities
of projectiles ate stored; and hail it not been prevented
by a fortunate accident, the whole city would probably
have been blown top. Almost all the retail stores are CIIII-
Ntorneil, At least 2,31'0,000 of this loss will fall to the
share of foreign uaerchants ; and those particularly who
were extensively engaged in the trade of this country
must sutler dreadfully. As far as we can judge, the
whole originated in a plot of the black people against
those of colour; and we are still apprehensive that all is
not over. The whites are on their guard at this time,
determined to sell their lives dearly, should any attempts
be made against them."

ITALIAN WITNESSES.

The following article is copied from the Ali:cella-
Nees, a Madrid paper, of the Ilth of September. It
is headed, " On the trial of the Queen of Eng-
land :"

" This day we take up the pen, not to transfer to paper, as we
daily do, ideas on this or that point of politics or economy. We
are compelled to write by the necessity which we feel, of render-
ing a solemn homage to the eternal principles of public morality,
indignantly set aside in the abominable trial which is prosecuting
before the Peels of England.
6' It is well known to all, that there arrived lately in England
a cargo of the lowest filth of Italy, brought together to stain, •
with die vilest declarations, the honour of an illustrious Princess.
It is well known likewise to all, that before the commencement of
the trial, several days were spent in attempting, if powrible, to
prevent it by negotiation, and thus to enable the English minis-
try to present the shame with which the indecent trial of the
Queen was going to cover that great nation. Finally, it was
known to all that the obstinacy of the ministry rendered useless
the excellent disposition to accommodation, evinced by that
unfortunate Princes*, and that at last a prosecution began, the
scandalous tenour of which excites the most melancholy consider-
ations, and shows to what an extreme of degradation corrupt men
will be wiled by their own selfishness.
" The first witness who was examined in this opprobrious cause
is 14 wretch called Theodori Majochi ; this iniainous creature,
who lived fur a considerable time with die Queen in the character
of lacquey, while she resided in Italy, and who followed her in
her travels to Constantinople and Palestine, declared, in contOr-
why with some insidious questions, that.his mistress passed,
during the night, into the room of Bergami (likewise a servant of
the Princess); that in the bed of this person there was the ap-
pearance of two having slept, while that of the Queen did not
appear to have been used at all ; that Bergami sated her when
she bathed ; and that on one occasion he gave liar a kiss, with
other indecencies which we cannot mention. The interrogatory
by the Attorney General being concluded, the Queen's Advocate
subjected the witness to an examination, which, by questions suf-
ticient to confound him, and tuake him fall dead with shame,
if his soul, sank in the lowest filth of debasement, had been
capable of that sentiment, made him retract many particulars
winch he had stated, and entrench himself within his studied
and uniform • Non nil rieorde.' That discovered the caution
which he employed to earn the unworthy recompense which had
been promised him for his filthy calumnies.
" The witnesses Cayetano Paturzo, Vicente Barguilo, Pedro •
Puchi, and Barbara Krese, lacquies, sailors, or waiters, (since-
the English ministry has taken care to employ that low rabble-to
hatch evidence against the Queen,) relate particulars more or lees
filthy; but so al,surd, improbable, and contradictory, that after
having been heard they ought to have been iinprisoneids that they
might suffix in due time the punishment which their perjuries
deserved. Up to the present time, only two respectable men,
Capt. Pcchell, of the frigate Clot hide, and Capt. Briggs, of the
ship Leeiathen, have been examined in these proeeedinga—
These twe otlicers have deposed to nothing whioh tun compromise
the honour of the Queen. and the testimony of two Englishmen
of distinction is of more value, doubtless, than that of all the lac-
quies arid waiters who live between the Lake of Geneva and the
extremity of Calabria. tVe must not omit that, from the decla-
rations of these bribed witnesses, it appears, first, that they have
conic on a bargain of so much. per month, and there is one of
them who eat ns i,OOO dollars per month. Secondly, that a de-
claration was taken from all of them in Milan by a spy of the
English Ministry, called Brown. Thirdly, that some of them
said they were driven by force to England. Fourthly, that on
their arriving there they were instructed in what they had to
answer; these interrogatories were put to them, from which in
the public examination in the House of Peers, those points were
left out, the answers to which would not have been favourable to
the projects of Ministers. Fifthly and finally, that one of the
witnesses had travelled post, in order to be catechised, from Italy
to Germany, and from Germany to Hungary, and that he after-
wards lived a long while with die English ambassador at Vienna,
kept and caressed for this important omeiion.
" From these facts, which the trial has disclosed, it appears
that, in order to afford to England the most scandalous spectacle
which it has seen since the death of Ann Boleyn .Menieters have
squandered with oriental profusion the treasures of that generous
nation on abject and vile Italians, who have made a horrible
traffic of their filthy calumnies. It appears likewise, that the
fruit which the English ministry will derive from having lavished
in the pay of these vile creatures such immense sums—the price
of the sweat of British subjects—will be the ignominy oh' having
injured their Queen in public. opinion, whether Abe shall be
declared guilty or whether, as 1. to be hoped. they declare her
innocent; in which case the character of the Princess must still
suffer. because it is the property of calumny always to leave some
indelible vestiges. On both of these suppositions the English
Ministry will _cover itself with eternal disgrace, which will be
much greater if it causes its Queen to be condemned on the tes-
timony of infamous and suborned witnesses, shown to be so by
the deposition of themselves; for the indemnity of hoou dollars
per month is a real subornation ; and for such a sum Italy might
have been depopulated of half its inhabitants, who would heve
gone to the cad of the woad, to vouch as many calumnies as
might be dictated to them.
We shall add, that the evident intention of the ministry is
to detaire the QUeell Of the respect and regard of the English ua •
lion ; and that with that intention it has allowed the evidence to
be published in which corrupt and shameless Italians have dc-
poets' to scandals and abominations, which, for the preservation
of public morals, ought to have been buried within the precincts
of me court. The precaution which, when causes of this kind
arc proceeding, is taken in all civilized countries, in order not
to °trend the ears of youth, has been disdained in a
which. from the exalted button of the person aecusod, must
sesound not only in all the corners of E 'trope, but to the most
remote extremities of the globe. To such a degree does die
spirit of party wake titian disregard Vee common rules of mo-
rahty, and fel in the ropsct dtie to the public ! We shall add.
in conchedoti, that the English nation has conducted itself' in
such deplorable eircutustanetw in a 'meanie the most noble: all
he cities hasten to manifest to the Qtecit the indigaation which
the covituct of the ministry excites ; and the immense population
London, which forms perhaps a tenth part of. the British
olinions in Europe, gives her every day Ute most eager roots of
m interest which they take in her lot."

ing commenced, mAny eases full of game have
