A Lisbon mail has arrived, brought by the Royal Tar—
sailed from Lisbon 16th, Oporto 17th, and Vigo 18th
instant; from Gibraltar on the 12th, and Cadiz the 13th.
The only information by the mail of consequence is,
that M. Carvalho, the Finance Minister, has once more
tendered his resignation, and the Queen has again refused
to accept it ; he says that be cannot get on with the present
inadequate resources. Report says that a Miguelite plot
has been discovered at Lisbon within a Jew days, which is
not credited.

The intelligence received on Saturday from Canton
caused considerable excitement in the City, and particu-
larly among the China merchants and speculators in tea.
Great fear is entertained that the China trade will be closed
for some time to come.
