much activity

January closed at 88 to.
The conduct of the Bank Directors in giving their assistance
to a certain Country Bank, has met with the public appro-
bation, as they have prevented a very great evil; for if. that
Bailk had stopped payment, it would have been the cause of
numerous other failures.

We stated yesterday that an express had arrived from Por-
tugal with unfavourable accounts. The Lisbon mail, which
has arrived, confirms our report, It appears that much dis-
affection has manifested itself among the troops in the Alem-
tejo, contrived by the agents of Don Miguel, who were well
supplied with money to buy them over, and which has been
attended with considerable success.

We have received the following letter from Lisbon, of the
27th of November :

" The Chiefs of the National Guards have had several meet-
ings, Senior Caldeira at their head, to concert a general field-
day, for the whole body to present an Address to the Queen,
praying her to dismiss the Ministers, and to purge the Govern-
ment offices of disaffected persons. Some persons say that
the idea has been given up, and the Government will volun-
tarily adept measures of severity to propitiate the populace,
but I believe that to-morrow the meeting will take place.
You may depend that fresh disturbances are at hand."

on the register in that district are stated to out-number the
Tories in the proportion of very nearly two to one.
