We have received a Lisbon paper of the sth February, from which
we copy the following :

" The week which has just expired has brought us fresh disappoint-
ment, as to the expected conclusion of the financial arrangements said
to be making between the Committee named by the Cortes for this pur-
pose, the Bank Secretary, and the Commercial Association, of this capi-
tal. We repeat again and again, the only means of restoring vital action
to the financial system, is to re-establish confidence, and confidence can
only spring from a conviction in the minds of all well.wishers to their
country.

" Her Most Faithful Majesty has positively refused to bestow any
honours or distinctions, previous to the promulgation of the new Consti-
tution, as on that occasion it is expected that a general amnesty will be
proclaimed, also a promotion in the Army, on the recommendation of
the Minister."

Stocks at Rio Janeiro:Since our last Six per Cent. Stock rose from 89
to 891 Ou; but has after that gradually declined to 88, at which rate
some sales were effected to-day, and more Stock was offered for sale at
this decline, which may-be particularly attributed to the unsettled state
of affairs in Bahia, and More particularly to the idea that there will be
considerable issues of nyty.Steck next month by the Government.
Wehave received the Second Liverpool letter, as follows :—" Several
Steam Tugs have gone opt in search of the Packet. It is expected that

pressed, about nine o'clock this evening,

Sir JAMES GRAHAM, it is reported, is to be returned
by the Tories for the borough of Pembroke, in lieu of Colonel
Owen, who has vacated his seat. The new writ was moved
for last night. The Right Hon. Baronet is quite convinced
that Parliament cannot get on without his assistance, and he is
therefore extremely anxious to be returned. Rumour says that
his anxiety is not a littlo increased by the reports that the
Tories mean to possess themselves again of the Ministry ; but
on that ground he need be in no haste, for the spoils of office
will not speedily be at their command.

THE ARMY ESTIMATES have been presented by the
order of the House of Commons, and we gather from them
that the whole increase of the army in the present year is to
7,996 men and 580 horses. The number last year was
101,031 men, the number this year is 109,027. The addi-
tional men raised will, we believe, merely increase the com-
panies and battalions to their full compliment, and accordingly
the increase in the number of officers is only 26, while of the
non-commissioned officers there is a decrease of five. The
probable expense for the effective service this year is stated at
of which the India Company pays 632,948/. The
a44:l,3d2ientleharge above 1837, for the effective service, is
stated to be 144,9961. The numbers of the non-effective ser-
vice is also increased by 384, but the charge is diminished, the
the increased numbers being of Chelsea pensioners, he. while
the decrease is of officers, pay, and pensions. The whole
of the increased charge for the effective and non-effective ser-
vices for the years 1838-1839 over the year 1837-1838 is
79,7161. But the increased appropriations is 31,683/., the
increase amount to be provided is 48,0331.
Sir J. Hall and the Directors of the Grand Collier
Dock Company had an interview with the President and
Vice- President of the Board of Trade yesterday, on the subject
of the Company's intended Docks, and the present crowded
state of the navigation of the port of London. The Governor
of the Bank of England, Sir J. R. Reid, and some gentle-
men connected with the Bank, had an interview. A Deputa-
tion from the British Association also had an interview.
SIR GERARD NOEL.—Happy are we to be enabled
to give a rather more favourable account of the health of the
venerable Baronet. For the last two or three days it has
cousiderabiy impreveti ; and we trust soon to be eildbled to
announce Sir Gerard's perfect restorgion.--Northampton.
