to keep them, only weakens the force of the
qualities by means of which men protect them-
selves, whilst such interference is costly, incon-
venient, and void of real security. That, whilst
the issue of inconvertible paper would be no
remedy for the present pressure, and would be mis-
chievous in itself, any hopes of checking speculation in
one particular direction would be illusory, because there
would still be wanting a power of preventing the diver-
sion of capital into other foreign and domestic channels."
The Hon. Gentleman was proceeding to deal with the
subject, when
Lord J. RUSSELL interposed, and trusted that the
Hon. Gentleman would, as other Hon. Members had
done, allow the adjourned debate on Portugal to have
precedence of his motion.
Mr. HUME intimated that there would no doubt be
a discussion on the currency on Thursday, on the motion
of an Hon. Member, and that it would be advisable that
those interested in the question of the currency should
defer the expression of their opinions until that evening.
Mr. TRELAWNY said the currency-laws were in
a very unsatisfactory state ; and he was, therefore,
anxious that no time should be lost in bringing it pro-
minently before the attention of the House. He should,
however, defer to their wishes, and withdraw his motion.
The motion was accordingly withdrawn.
ECCLESIASTICAL CHARITIES.

Mr. E. DENISON rose to move the appointment of a
Select Committee to inquire into the composition and
management of the English ecclesiastical charities. He
believed the Noble Lord was prepared to grant the
Committee for which he had moved, and, therefore, it
would be unnecessary for him to make any further ob-
servations.

Sir R. INGLIS said that whoever would undertake
the conduct of the Committee, would be most self:
devoted. His Hon. Friend seemed to conceive that the

.ouse would not be adjourned before the 15th of Sep-

tember.

tute a different form in which the returns could be made

Itself the Cabralist faction—and for anything I knowl
they may be worthy of the name they have chosen to
assume—if such men and such principles are influ-
ence thefuture Governmentof Portugal, thet mere is no se-
curity for peaoe, no security there for conlinued attachment
to the Crewn.—(Hear, hear.) And then, indeed, it will
not be in the power or England longer to give that ad-
vice, and to lend that assistance, which I think she can
freely give and freely lend, and which I hope will be
effectual for the single purpose for which they have been
given and lent—to maintain an ancient monarchy, and
to obta'.n from that monarchy guarantees for constitu-
tional freedom.—(Great cheering.)
BOWRING said that the Right Hon. Baronet
brad advocated the propriety of introducing constitu-
tional principles into the Government of Portugal, but
he had not referred to the history or the origin of that
state of things which led to the present unhappy condi-
tion of that kingdom. Intervention in the internal
affairs of that country was, in his opinion, exceedingly
Mischievous, and he considered that the result would be
feelings of dissatisfaction among all parties and the in-
volving of this country in consequences which no one
could anticipate. The Hon. Member was proceeding to
detail the circumstances which had led to the insurrec-
tion, and especially to the arbitrary acts of the Cabralist
faction, when
An HoNottantx MEMBER moved that the House be
counted, and there being only 27 Members present, the
House stood adjourned till to-morrow.

LOSDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE IG, 1847.

Gladly do we announce the amendment introduced
to the attention of Parliament on Monday by the Hon.
Gentleman the Member for Finsbury, in reference to
the conduct pursued by Government towards the
pople and the SOVEREIGN of Portugal. The amend-
ment suggested by Mr. DUNCOMBE is one precisely in
accordance with the spirit of Mr. HUME'S motion,
and in every way compatible with the principles
enunciated by ourselves as to the propriety of
an armed interference. According to the word-
ing of this amendment, the House of Com-
mons will pronounce it to be " the duty of
'the British Government to endeavour by every just
:means in their power to secure to the people of Por-
tugal the full enjoyment of their constitutional rights
and privileges." Beyond the gratification experienced
at the introduction of a proposition like this, a pro-
position which will afford a brilliant testimony
of the sympathy with which the Legislature of these
islands regards the blessedness of a liberal and mode-
rate sovereignty, we are in a particular manner re-
joiced at Mr. DuscomßE's proceeding, as it elicited I
from the lips of Mr. MACAULAY an explanation of
the sentiments by which his colleagues have been ac-
tuated throughout towards Portugal—an explana-
tion at once so comprehensive, so terse, so masterly
in arrangement, and so conclusive in argument. If
the Right Honourable the Paymaster of her Majesty's
Forces does not absolutely vindicate the necessity
lr the subjugation of the insurgent forces of the
i:unta by our squadron of surveillance, he, at least,
testifies in an unanswerable manner to the humanity
,f the views by which the Cabinet of England has
Jaen instigated to the adoption of such violent mea-
sures ; he confirms the opinion we expressed on
Thursday evening, that the Ministerial arrangements

ANNIVERSARY of her MAJESTY'S

CORONATION.
PORTSMOUTH, JUNE 28.—The anniversary of the
Queen's Coronation was kept on Monday at Portsmouth
with all the due observances and marks of respect. The
people of the dockyard, and all persons connected
with the public departments, had a holiday. The shops
of the three towns, Portsmouth, Portsea, and Gosport,
were all closed, and the inhabitants, generally, also kept
holiday.

At daylight the bells rang forth their cheering sounds,
and at eight the Royal Standard flags were displayed at
the various flag-staves, and the squadron at Spithead,
and the ships in harbour, exhibited the usual quantity
of coloured bunting. At noon the Excellent, bearing
the flag of Rear Admiral Hyde Parker, Commander-
in-Chief pro tem, led off the general salute, which ship
was followed by the St. Vincent, the Victory, the
Howe, and Lily. So soon as the guns had ceased
booming, the fine peal of bells of St. Thomas's
Church repeated the fire, and afterwards struck out
a merry peal. The streets were thronged by holiday
keeping and well-dressed people, and the scene was
further enlivened by Cook's equestrian troop, who, with
their superb horses, were at the time making a tour of
the principal thoroughfares.
