" It is very probable, that the revolution in
the vicinity of Delagoa Bay,meationed by Capt.
Owen, is caused by the same people. We may
shortly expect to hear their farther bistdt7 from
Messrs. Moffat and Melville, who, I am -well
aware, will spare no pains to effect that object."

"In the night:Of the 22d April, the British schooner Swift,
Captain Honey, of sierra heonee, at anchor in this port, was
boarded by about twenty, soldiers of the garrison, and some re-
neged° French sailors, and taken out of the harbour, without
being discovered from any of the batteries, and it is supposed
has gone on a piratical cruise, as she is without papers to pro.
tect her. Captain H. was at the time on shore. 'rhe rnate and
all the crew, together with a young man from Boston (United
States), were all on board, and It is supposed the latter and the
mate, with such of the crew as refused to join them have been
murdered.

BRAZIL.

MARANHAM, JULY 21.

On the 11th inst. three Portuguese ships ar-
rived here from Lisbon with accounts of the dis-
solution of the Cortes, and of the Royal party
having once more got into power. These advices
caused a great sensation amongst the Constitu-
tionalists here, and it was determined on declar-
ing foe independence on the 14th, on which day
the greater part of the respectable inhabitants
met, with every prospect of the ceremony being
got over without the least opposition, and a new
Government appointed, to have been composed
entirely of Brazilians. They had but just got
together, and were proceeding in the necessary
arrangements, when eight Portuguese vessels ap-
peared off the port, consisting of a ship, a brig,
a schooner, and five sumacas ; and it was soon
known that they were from Bahia, and that
Madeira, from the want of provi.ions, had been
necessitated to abandon the said city ; the Junta
consequently broke up without accomplishing the
object of their meeting. The vessels arrived,
when it was ascertained that they only brought
about 200 soldiers. It was, however, reported
that vessels, with from 2.,000 to 3,000 men, had
been ordered to proceed 'to this port. This, be
pleased to observe, occurred on the 14th instant,
and Madeira, with his troops and upwards of
100 sail of shipping, left Bahia on the 241 instant,
and up to this date no more vessels have arrived
here with troops ; and it is now the current
opinion that no more are coming, and that Ma-
deira has proceeded with them to Portugal ; and
negociations are again going forward here, with a
view to accommodate matters with the Brazilians;
and by the first direct conveyance we trust that
it will be in our power to acquaint you of the
communication with the, interior having been
opened. Two of our principal merchants are to
proceed to Itupicarn to-morrow morning, to ar-
range matters with the Brazilians.

BAYONNE INTELLIGENCE.

BAYONNE, SE!►T. 30.--Thongh the disorder nt

Passages makes no progress, and this is, in such case*, a sign

of diMinution, we are obliged to eonfess that the suburb of St.
Pierre, which is on .The :other tide of the Bay, has just been
attacked. There Would be considerable reason to be alarmed,
but happily the rainy season has commenced, anti this will be
the most efficacious check to the progress of the contagion.
Four vessels arrived in our river yesderday, which came from
Santona ; they have on hoard sixty-three Spaniards, who are
put under quarantine.
It is not yet decided what is to be done with four or five hun-
dred patients, ill of typhus fever,who are now in the hospital
of St. Sebastian, and are to leave hat place on the 11; as wall
aS the rest of the garrison, which is :o come to France as pri-
soners of war. It was proposed to put them in the Lazaretto
at llehobia, but it is not large enough ; there was also a notion
of encamping them, hut it scents that the bad weather Will be
an obstacle.
Patients continue to arrive at the military hospital here ; 125
were brought yesterday from St. Jean de Luz. It appears that
the plan of sending the sick from Spain will be continued to be
acted .upon,. It is affirmed that the garrison of St. Sebastian
has conducted itself better than that of I'ampeluna, inasmuch
as its provisions were quite consumed. The means of attack
collecting :heiCre Cadiz are immense; besides drawing front
Andalusia whatever may be useful, every thing has been sent
from CAnunna that can be employed in this important siege.
The vessels which conveyed the five companies of artillery front
Bayonne arrived safely at Port St. Mary's on the 20th.
We learn from Orthes, that the prisoners from Panipeluna •
have met with a very good reception there front all the inha-
bitants.
We learn from Madrid that the Regency has issued a Decree,
prohibiting the Journals fl.om publishing any news, even offi-
cial, till it has appeared in the Gazette of Madrid, which is
something like the Moniteur.
The Board, called the • " Junta of Pacification," has laid
its opinion before the Regency, that it may decide on the fate
of chose persons holding public employments, to • whom the
Decree of the 231 July last cannot be applied. These are—
" 1. Those who have not made part of the militia, or who
have left it.
" 2. Those who made part of It from fear of losing the
employments from which they derived their subsistence.
,l. Those who joined it to avoid the requisitions, if they
have not since taken any part in the popular tumults."
Madrid seems calm ; but there are ninny discontented per-
sons. The arrests continue ; they are explained by the facility
with which the arrested get out of prison, on payment of a
aunt larger or smaller, according to circumstances, but never
less than 1,000 reels. It is a new kind of contribution.

It ie reported that the garrison of Ciudad Rodrigo has
offered to recognise the Regency, on condition that they should
be allowed still to guard the place, as at Corunna.
The fort of ,Pena~ de Ban Pedro capitulated on the 10th.
The garrison is to be sent as.prisoners at war to Urganda.
Accounts from Xeres at' the 10th say, that the Duke del In-
fantado and M. Saes had been stopped and plundered while on
a promenetle. The robbers, who were five in number, did
not do them any personal injury.
The Restourador contains a very curious article relative to
Ilallamteros ; after having said that it is only to the late events
that he owes the continuetion of the military convention, it
pretende that papers have been found which prove a culpable
correspondence of that General with Carandelet and Domingo
A quilera, the latter of whom recruits for the Constitutionalists,
and endeavours to raise the whole province of Jaen ; 300 volun-
teers marching out of Uheda cried " Riego for ever! Liberty
for ever !" The 'journalial cOnchitles by • saying, that he
knows more about it than can be said. •
There is a report of an Extraordinary Sitting of the Cortes,
in which the question of removing the King and the Royal
Family was discussed. It is said that it was proposed to send
him to the Canaries, and that another proposal was to trend him
to Barcelona, which, besides its strength, is in a country that
can be depended upon.
The Constitutional squadron is commanded by Don Capaz. '
Quiroga ha* taken the command of some battalions which have
vowed to devote themselves to death rather than surrender. At
Aladin'', however, the belief of an amicable arrangement and
a speedy termination of the war, still prevails, for orders have
'been given for the departure of .his Majesty's equipages for
Seville.

A French brigade is said to be sent towards Placentia, to
which ft is added, that the troops of O'Donnell are gone
against the Enipecinittio, who appears to be in force in, that
province.
Riego has been delivered up to the Spanish Regency, by
order of the Major-Oeneral.
On the 24th, 7'e Delon was performed in all the churches of
Madrid.

31any officers of artillery and engineers continue to pass
through here, going post to Andalusia. All the artillery, and
almost all the officers and troops employed in the siege of Pam-
peluna, are to be present at the attack on Lerida.

We have no further intelligence respecting
the important subject of the Duke of Amoou-
tames mysterious Telegraphic Dispatches. No-
thing more than mere• conjecture, therefore, can
as yet .be offered 1.4 pet: ting an occurrence which
certainly seems to he one of the most curious
and extraordinary in modern history. The two
sentences written by the Duke of ANGOULEME
might seem to furnish scarcely aiingle topic for
speculation ; but yet, brief and scanty as the
materials are, it is possible to. frame from them a
variety of opinions, each of :which presents an
appearance of probability,.hoWever inconsistent
it may be with the rest. We yesterday sub-
milted to our Readers a few of the reflections
which the first -perusal of the second Dispatch
suggested. After more mature deliberation, we
now venture to surmise, that .the Duke of Am-
.
oput,Estr may have, actually been visited at Port
St. Mary by FERDINAND., and that the breaking
of of the negotiations means nothing more than
the return of the Spanish Monarch to Cadiz!
There is, we acknowledge, on the face of, this
conjecture, something so exceedingly improbable,
that it is necessary to support it by the'recapi-
(lllation of the circumstances on which it is
founded ; and these are,-
Ist. That the'Frettch accounts, for some time
previous to the Duke's first Dispatch, had uni-
formlf:iienied the existence of any negotiation,
and bad even deeloted that the Prince had re-
fused to receive a flag of truce.
Id. That the first Dispatch, dated Chicluna;
Sept. 28th, (also implying by silence the absence of

Bth. That the Duke of ANGOULEME may have
been, and most likely has been, more explicit in
his communications to the President of the Coun-
cil of Ministers, than the French Government
has thought proper to acknowledge,—that it is
scarcely possible to believe that the Duke could
have omitted to state whetherFE►tDlNAxn had or
had not visited hirn,---and that if he did make
such a statement, there could be no motive on
the pert of the French Government for suppress-
ing the fact that -no interview had taken ,place,
whilst it is obvious, on the other band, that
many and most powerful motives would induce
them to conceal, as long as possible, the
fact that FCRDINAND had been at liberty, and at
the French head-quarters, although the war,
which was professedly undertaken solely for his
liberation, was still to be carried on !

Our Readers will of course attach what degree
of importance they think proper to those sugges.
tions, which we are well aware have no very sub-
stantial basis. Indeed, it has been supposed
by some persons that the letter purporting
to have been sent from King FERDINAND
was nothing more than a hoax played off
on the Prince Generalissimo, perhaps for
the purpose of gaining time for the escape of
FERDINAND and the Government from Cadiz, in
pursuance of a design which is said to have been
formed for their removal to Barcelona, or some
other situation more secure than the present seat
of Government.

r
CITY, Twelve o'clock..—Consols opened at
831—got up to 831-i for the Money and for the
Account, with little business doing. We do not
hear up to this hour of any Express having ar.
rived from Paris, although a report prevails that
the French Rentes have come at Ulf. 40c., but
the above price cannot be relied upon.
The public are very anxious for the result of
the intended attack on, the Island of Leon, w hich
was to have taken place on the 30th of September
or the Ist of October. Should it have taken
place at the above period, accounts of the result
must be known tomorrow.

FOUEIGN,MAIIKEL—There was a great bustle
this morning in the tirticle of Poyais Bonds, and
a great deal of businoss wag done in that stock.
Spanish and Colombia are the only Bonds that
they are doing business in.

CAPE OP Goon Ilopc.--We have received
this morning the Cape Town Gazette and African
Advertiser to the 26th of July. In another
column we have given some interesting parti.
c3lars respecting the /I/antatees, or savage na.
tion, whose apparent hostile approach to the
European settlements has excited a considerable
alarm in. the Colony. On the 24th of July the
Royal Commission, empowering J.T. BIGGE, Esq.
and W. M. G. COLEBROOK; Esq, to inquire into
the
,state of the laws, administration, &c. &c. of
the Cape of Good Hope and of the Mauritius, and
the Island of Ceylon, was opened in the presence

of His Excellency the Governor, in the nail or
the Court of Justice at Cape Town. The Ga.
zette of the 29th contains a comparative state-
ment of the Exports from the Cape for the years
1821 and 1822, which we shall insert to-morrow,
as affording most satisfactory evidence of the
rapid progress of the Colony in Commercial
prosperity.

WINDSOR, OCT. B.—This day his MAJESTYi
attended with his usual Suite, took an airing in
his phaeton, about one o'clock, in the spacious
rides in the Park. We are happy to state that
the King continues in the enjoyment of excellent
health. The band of the Royal Fusileers attend-
ed and played this afternoon to the right of the
royal standard. A numerous assemblage of the
neighbouring nobility attended to hear them.
An article from Naples, dated Sept. 16, says,
The High Tribunal of the hithermost Princi-
pality has just condemned to death Antoine
Gianuone, of Naples; Jean, of Orta ; Clement
Pruta, of Salerno; Frederic Cimino, of Monte-
pertoso ; and Felix Tafuri, found guilty of being
Members of the Carbonari, and of having worn
the tri-coloured cockade on the 17th of June,
1820, and of having conspired against the Go.,
vermnent. The Court declared them excluded
from the amnesty of the 28th of Sept. 1822,
they were executed on the 12th inst."

The DGelleSS of GLOUCESTER arrived in town
yesterday from Bagshot, paid a visit to the Prin.

'There is now iu the windows of most of the
priest-shops, a view of Botany Bay, on a large
scale. Its woods, and mountains, and lakes, to
y nothing of several ranges of handsome build-
ings), give it altogether so inviting au aspect,
that there is some reason to fear that very ardent
lovers of the picturesque may be inclined to com-
mit a petty larceny, in order to enjoy-a nearer
view of such enchanting scenery. We are stir-
prised that the
,various anti-sinner societies in the
metropolis have not yet taken the alarm. •• We

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER has sig-
nified his intention of giving up Lotteries, in pre-
ference to any other tax ; and the Revenue of
the present quarter having increased to such un
extent as' to render the profit on them of no
objvct to the nation, there is good reason to
expect that this will be the lust time that the
Rritish Public will be enabled to gain en inde-
pendence, by risking a Small SUM. Two out of
the five days of Drawing are, now over, and yet the
Wheel contains Three Prizes of Twenty Thou-
sand Pounds, One of Ten Thousand Pounds,
Two of Two Thousand Pounds, Four of One
Thousand Pounds, Seven of Five Hundred
Pounds, besides numerous small Capitals. The
Tickets and Shares are cheaper than for the last
Fifty Lotteries at the same period of the Draw-
ing. The demand has been great, and there are
but few Tickets on sale ; which of course will be
still further reduced before the Third Day of
Drawing, which is THURSDAY NEXT, the 16th
instant.

Some of the ale which was distributed to the
poor at Windsor, on Thursday last, to wash
down the roasted ox, is said to have been some•

since described it to be, Ox-ale-ic acid.
KING'S BENCH PRlSON.—Yesterday the Mar-
shal (Wait. JONES, Esq.) held a Court of Inquiry in thiq
prison; for investigating the circumstances attending the late
disgraceful outrage, assault, and discipline of the pump on
Mr. Roubel. That gentleman recapitulated the whole of his
evidence, as deposed before L. B. ALLEN, Esq. the Magis-
trate of Union Hall. He produced the letter he had received
from Jacobs, stating that he was recommended to apply to bin)
professionady by Mrs. Pigott, which induced him to visit the
Bench; and confirmed the subsequent violence and loss he had
sustained. Many witnesess were examined, who corroborated
his statemenuatto the assault; when, after a long and patient
hearing, the following prisoners, against whom warrants had
been lodged at the last examination before Mr. Allen, were
committed to close confinement in the county prison in Home-
monger-lane, viz. Major Campbell, Captain S'chlutzer, Jacobs,
and Heron. The other prisoners, Elvaston and Wright, who
have " levanted," and exposed the " secrets of the prison
house" in favour of Mr. Roubel, were for the present cons.
witted to safe custody in the strong room over the lobby in the
Bench. T. Pitman, the celebrated racket-player, who was im-
plicated in the charge, and not being a prisoner had' been corn-
witted to Horsemonger.lane Prison by Mr. Allen, has since
been admitted to bail.
Last night, about 8 o'clock, the household of
Lord Clam:Nunn were informed by a person
posing through Stanhope-street, that the mansion
was beset by thieves, and that one of the gang
had been seen on the garden-wall. The do-
mestics went in every direction about tho
Spacious building in quest of the intruders,
but they were not to be " found, although this
marks of their footsteps were visible amidst
the plantations. It is, therefore, supposed
they must have been aware they were detected,
and fled immediately. It is conjectured that they
intended to conceal themselves in the garden till.
the establishment had retired to bed, and then lo
attack the house. A ladder, and some house-
breaking apparatus, were left behind by the
robbers.

BOW•STREET--(Tors DAY).—The driver Of
the hackney.coach No. 9 summoned a Gentle-
man for not paying him his fare. The question
here was, first, whether the complainant had
gone the nearest road ; anti, secondly, whether
the distance was one mile ?—The Coachman
stated, that he was culled off' the stand lit HYd°
Park Corner, and drove through Albemarle'
street to the corner of Regent Circus, Oxford..
street end.—The Gentleman complained of said
he had never before paid more than one shilling.
—Sir RICHARD BIRNIE said he might have the
distance, measured if he pleased ; but his, Sir
iticttAnn's opinion was, that the distance WO
more than a mile.—The Gentleman said, he
should not incur any farther expences, and pala
the costs and the loss of time of the coachman.
