LISBON PAPERS.

LISBON, JAN. I'7.
ha Friday the 15th instant the Foreign Ministers, re-
sident in Lisbon, the Grandees of the kingdom, and a vast
number of persons of all classes, went to the Palace of
Quelus to pay their respects to his Majesty, and testify the
grief which is universally felt on account of the death of
her Majesty the Empress Queen, and his august mother,
whom God has called to his glory: the countenances of
all were visibly impressed with the grief caused by so un-
happy an event, and which has filled the hearts of the
King, our Sovereign, and of their Highnesses the In-
!antes, with the most lively grief for the loss of a tender
mother, who was a model of manly heroism, and of
Christian virtue.

JAN. 20.—The Gazette of to-day contains an official
notice from the Commissioners of the Royal Loans, an-
nouncing that on the 19th instant, in the presence of the
Conde tie Lousa D. Diego, Minister of Finance, and
President of their Board, the balance sheet of the rescript
and expenditure of the last half year having been signed,
they proceeded to the annihilation of paper to the amount
of 324,906,275 reas.

JAN. 21.—The Gazette of to-day contains a similar
notice of the annihilation of the sum of 20,400 milreas
of the bonds of the loan, 2,400 contos of real made by the
Bank of Lisbon in 1826, being part of the 4,000 contos
decreed by the law of 31st March, 1826, which bonds re-
main preserved in the coffers of the board, according to
the third article of the said law.

OTORTO, JAN. 15.
We have had intense cold in this city for above a
month, with very mild days; we learn too, that the cold
has been excessive all over the kingdom, chiefly in the
north, whore it had done much injury to the gardens, ',kr.
The snow has been abundant, and this morning the roofs
and the ground in this city were covered with boar frost,
a thing we have not seen for many years ; the weather,
however, remains to-day.
The letters from Coina do Douro, say the cold was ex-
reesive there last month ; the small rivers being frozen as
well as the sides of the Douro, so that it was necessary for
the navigation of the boats to send men before to break
the ice. Many of the fish called mullets were found
dead among the ice, others half dead, an extraordinary
occurrence in that country.
The letters from all other parts of the provinces give
similar accounts of the cold and its destructive effects.

TRIESTE, JAN- 25.
It is said that some bankers here and at Venice, in con-
junction with a Neapolitan house, are negociating a loan
as is suppo,ed for the Court at Naples. The inhabitant,
of Venice have resolved to testify their gratitude to the
Emperor, for granting to Venice the privileges of a free
port, by erecting a statue to his Majesty, 70,000 florins con-
vention money are assigned for this purpose. Our ac-
counts from Greece are to the beginning of this month ;
the party of Count Capo d'istria expects from London
the notice of the choice of a King, and seems not to feel
much interest in it, as in the present uncertainty respect-
ing the definitive fate of Greece the situation of the Pre-
sident is not very agreeable, and he has himself repeatedly
expressed his warmest wish to see matters soon settled in
one way or another.
Letters from Egypt say, that the negotiations between
Mehemet Ali and the French Commissioners had been broken
off, in consequence of a letter frorr.Count Guilleminot brought
by a courier from Constantinople. It was thought that the
French Government was disposed to settle its dispute with
Algiers alone and did not want any co-operation from
Egypt. The negotiations respecting Egyptian auxiliary
troops were, in fact, commenced under the Martignac
Administration, and have been prosecuted with lukewarm-
ness by the present Ministry, because dissatisfaction is said
to have been expressed at London on the subject, and
public opinion in France appears to be averse to it.
