We regret to state that there is no longer a
doubt of the existence of the real spasmodic (or
continental) cholera at' Sunderland. Equally
true is it that it is spreading in that town, and has
even reached Newcastle, as an official letter from

the Mayor, which will be found in another column,
informs us. We trust our readers will not give
way to unnecessary apprehensions, but prepare
to meet the scourge with firmness, activity, and
above all, with confidence in a benignant Pro-
vidence. Feat—it should ever be borne in
mind—is one of the chief predisposing causes
to infection.- Cleanliness, temperance, and
cheerfulness, are the chief,- indeed, it should
seem, the sole preventives.

The Express from Paris contains no ad
tional news of moment respecting the disturbances
at Lyons. The reported revolts at St. Etienne,
Tarare, Grenoble, &c., have been proved to be
without foundation ; nor had the Lyonese
workmen, up to the date of the last accounts,
received any reinfUrcements either of men or
ammunition. The telegraph had not yet an-
nounced the arrival of Marshal SOULT and
the Duke of ORLEANS at Lyons, though
they were hourly expected there on Sunday
last. In Paris attempts had been made by
the Carlists and revolutionists to excite the
mob to disturbances, but fortunately without
effect. Several arrests, however, had taken
plau, and among the persons arrested was
Colonel LENNOX, Proprietor of the Evening
Paper entitled the Revolution. The address of
the King of HOLLAND to the STATES-GENE-
RAL seems to have excited no little surprise and
agitation in the French capital, and additional
bustle was generally noticed at the War-office.
The Address of the Chamber of Deputies to the
KING, on the subject of the insurrection at
Lyons, was carried—as we anticipated yesterday
it would be—by an overwhelming majority ;by a
majority of not less than 291 to 18. The Ad-
dress of the Upper House was agreed to unani-
mously, without a division.

Lisbon Papers have been received, but their
contents are unimportant. They speak with great
glee of what they term the " Quixotic Expedi-
tion," lately set on foot for the purpose of over-
throwing the Government of Dort MIGUEL ;
and allude in a sarcastic tone to the Bristol
riots:—

Lisuox, Nov. 14.—The Gazette contains a numerous
promotion in the army.
Nov. 15.—Part of the army being to be organized in
divisions, his Majesty has nominated Lieut.-General Vis•
count do Pezo da Regoa, to command the first division;
Major-General A. X. de Fuseca Coutinbo a Pores, the
second ; Major-General A. P. de Mantes Sarmento, the
third ; and Major-General Viscount de Santa Martha, the
fourth.
An official notice from the Minister of Finance gives a
decree of the King, to the effect that the insufficiency of
the revenue to meet the extraordinary expences being well
known, and. it being absolutely necessary, under these cir-
cualstanzles, to make efforts becominz the dignity of the
Crown, and calculated to secure his Majesty's faithful sub-
jects in the stability of their property, and in the tranquil-
lity- which they so justly merit, and it not being his Ma-
jesty's intention that they should he burthened with fresh
taxes, but, on the contrary, that the pecuniary resources
required should be obtained by prompt measures and in
such a manner that the while it affects the most wealthy
persons in the kingdom, it may be reconciled with their
interest, his Majesty, by the advice of members of
his Council has been pleased to order that a loan of 12,000
contos of reis, bearing interest at five per cent., shall be
opened at Lisbon, Oporto, Coimbra, and Figuiera, viz.,
SOO contos in Lisbon, and 400 in the three other places.
The capitalists and merchants of the several places are to
be rated according to their property, by Commissioners
appointed for this purpose. The Commissioners for Lis-
bon are, Antonio Esteves Costa, Counsellor Joao Paulo
Cordeiro, Joaquim Gomez Alves, Antonio Lopez des
Anjos, Joao Antonio Gomez Ribeiro.
