ILOI4OII.
SUNDAY, OCTORER B.
We had intended to have given, and had indeed
prepared, a full account of the presentation of the
numerous respectable addresses to the Queen, but
her defence has commenced, and is in our estimation
-paramount in importance to every other subject ;
we can, therefore, only say, that Monday and
Tuesday were fixed upon for the presentation of
addresses, so many, so numerously signed, and so
respectably supported by the appearance of the pro-
•cessions, as perhaps never were presented to any
individual in any country, or at any period of his-
tory. Her Miljesty received them all with that
elegance. urbanity, and affability, which are so
•peculiarly her own ; and the crowded grounds of

Brandenburgh-house, during the whole of the two
days, echoed to the heart-felt prayers of the multi-
-tucks that lined them with the continued cries of
GOD SAYS THE QTTEPt.

Private accounts have been received from Rio
Janeiro, dated Aug. 1. They are of rather an im-
portant nature, inasmuch as they lead to the belief
• that the Brazils are by no means in a settled state,
. and that it is not improbable the revolution in Por-
tugal will extend itself across the Atlantic. Letters
from Bahia, Pernambuco, and other northern parts
of the Brazils, from houses of the first respectability,
are written evidently under the apprehension of the

-occurrence of some important event; and it is even
more than suspected that the projected revolution in
Portugal was known in the Brazils so early as June
last. The communications to which we refer are
written in a very guarded manner. The writer of
of one from Bahia does not venture to say more than
express his wish that the British Government would
despatch a naval force to the Brazils, which might,
on an emergency, afford protection to British sub-
jects and their property. Should the example of the
inhabitants of Oporto be followed by the Brazilians,
revolution will first manifest itself in the northern
.provinces.

In bis opening speech, the Attorney General
said, that the Countess of Oldi was a vulgar woman,
because she did not speak pure Italian, but a Patois.
Lord Guilford, who is known to be a competent
authority, deaicd that the lady in question spoke a
Patois, but stated that nhe spoke Italian with some-
what of a provincial accent—that is, the accent of
the Milanese, of which country she is a native. To
•explain this, we copy from M. Galiffe's Travels in
Italy the following remarks on the Milan dialect,
from which the Countess might have borrowed her
sweat, though not her expressions:-
4' The Milanese dialect is nisi much more like what
we call Italian than any other European language. It
contains a strange mixture of several languages, in which
ltaliau of course predominates; but the pronunciation
is so peculiar as to make it quite another language. The
a is rmmounced as in the french; and there arc words
such as.cossr, for heart, which are both written and pro-
nounced exactly the same in both languages. The
Milanese have likewise the same nasal sounds as the
French. Several of the terminations are Spanish. The
whole compound forms a harsher language than I know,
except the German. I was exceedingly entertained in
mir way to Pavia by a little boy who recited a long dia-
logue between a Milanese and a Venetian, boasting the
advantages of their respective countries in his own dia-
lect. Nobody could hesitate an instant to give the pre-
ference in point of elegance and grace to the latter, but
there is in the former a degree of blunt and frank
expression, which admirably sund the known character
of the nation to which it klunas."
