FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

MADRID, Sity.r. IG.—A funeral service in ho-
nour of the National Guards who fell on the 7th of
July, in defence of the public liberty, was cele-
brated yesterday with the greatest pomp, in the
cathedral of this city.
General Pa!area, Political Chief of Madrid, has
published an ordnance of the police, which enforces
some old regulations for the preservation of public
tranquillity. They relate chiefly to strangers, some
of whom, says the ordnance, may be emisider.al as
abusing the hospitality generously afforded them.—
They lutist all give a satisfactory account of their
business in the capital, and those %yin, are suspectid

The accounts from the provinces arc not ittterol-

qt , militia are in motion, sonie for Caellunia, others to
a the parts left by the regular troops, who have been
sent likewise to Cambia.. I
It is said that many troops have arrived at Sara-
• g ,ssa, and that on the 30th there were to be fifteen

LISBON, `EPT 20.—The order of the day was
the last reading of the constitution.
Senor Fernandez Pinheiro read a paper, in which
after stating various rcaious, he concluded by say-
ing, that to comply with the wishes of his consti-
tution, he must openly declare that he could not
possibly sign the Constitution. This being read a
second time, and supported by the author and by
Senor Castro e Silva, it was dsscussed and retimred
to the Committee of the Constitution. .

M Bruameamp said, he could not conceive how
it was possible that some of the deputies from Br,ail
should have besides their powers us deputies sepa-
rate instructions ; and it' they had any, he did not
understand that could have any validity, or serve as
a pretext thr any doubts ; that these very deputies
had assisted in drawing up the constitution, voted
in its articles after they had been discussed, and
now that the work was finished, refused to sign it.
It is not possible: nor is it possible that such &con-
dition should exist in their powem (or credentials )
I therefore propose to refer them to the committee
of the constitution, to be examined us far as they
relate to this subject. The president put this pro-
posal to the vote, which was approved.
Sa►T. 16 —lt appearing that there is a deficiency
of corn in the kingdotn, the agricultural committee
propose to admit foreign corn to be deposited in the
port of Lisbon. Ist. Any merchant shall be at li-
berty to import foreign corn (trigo wheat) into the
port of Lisbon for the next three months, subject to
certain regulations. 2. When the average price ut
Portuguese corn is SOU roes, for..ign corn shall be
admitted us follows:

I.—When the 4e price i• between 803 and 930 reel,
foreign coro ally be sold iir equal proportion with Puituguese
—th*t is, lode of each.

2.--NN hen the average price is between 900 end 900 rees,
two thirds of foreign corn may be sold
3.—W hen the average exceeds hbio reel, the whole quantity
May be foreign.
SiPT. 17.—The committee of the constitution
presented its opinion on the steps vet to be taken in
swearing, to and publishing it. They propol.te that
his Majesty shall repair to the Palace of the Cortes.
on the Ist of October, to take the oath in form; and
that the President leaving presented to his Majesty
the Holy Evangelists, he shaft lay his right hand
on the book and say, " 1 accept, and swear to ob-
serve, and cause to be observed, the political eon.
stituti.in of the Portuguese Monarchy, which the
Constitutional Cortes of the some nation lusre jut
decreed."
