Extracts from the Morning Papers, Jan. 23.

NURSING POST .-jr
His Majesty's frigate Creole arrived on Wed-
nesday at Plymouth from Rio Janeiro, which she
•idt on the 27th of November. She has brought
papers and letters of the 26th. The former are
aimuit entirely silent respecting the species of
counter-revolution effected by the Emperor; but
the latter give some interesting particulars of
that event. it appears that notwithstanding his
professions of attachment and fidelity to the esta-
bliShed order Of things, Don Pedro was not satis-
fied With the limitations which the Congress
proposed to set to the Sovereign authority, and
-that he adopted this violent measure, not to
make himself altogether despotic, but to have
it in his power to frame such a constitution
as would he more consonant with his views
.91 Government, and bY possessing the merit
(according to their doctrine) of having ema-
nated- from the throne, Would render the Allied
• Monarchs more disposed to recognize the
independence. of the Brazilian Empire. The
manner in which the Congress was dissolved,
however, is not calculated to increase the pbpu-
larity of the new Emperor in his own dominions,
whatever may be its effect on the Europeati
Sovereigns; and he would no doubt have fixed
himsetf.mere firmly on the throne by securing-
the confidence and affection of his subjects, than
by courting the friendship of foreign despots.—
The example of hurbide's downfall should have
taught him that it was dangerous for a new Sove-
reign to become too soon the persecutor of those
froth whose hands he had received the crown.—
Some of the private letters represent theagita-
tiOn of the people to be so great at Rio Janeiro,
that a new revolution was daily expected, and
-the merdiants were takingall possible precautions
for the protection of their property. it had been
expected that'the Emperor would have issued a
public declaration of his motives for having
solved the Congress and banished some of its mem-
bers without trial; but it does not appear that that
expectation had been realized. The, eyes of
most people, it is said, were fixed on Lord Coch-
rane, who was considered to hold the balance of
power and the fate of the empire in his hands;
and it was believed that the titles and honours
lately bestowed upon him and his officers, had
been granted in contemplation of the late change,
and in order to secure their-fidelity and support
during the critical period by which it was known
that it must be followed.

[MORNI`NO CHRONICLE.]
The Journal des INbats has the following note
on an article from the Austrian Observer, dated
Constantinople,Dec.lo, denying that the ;reeks
had obtained any naval victory over the Turks
at Scopolo (the article will be found among our
extrarts from German Papers). " We con-
ceive ourselves certain of the purity of the source
whence we derived the details which we published
as to the victory gained by the Greeks in the
Gulph of Talanta over a detachment of the Turkish
fleet. We consider these details very exact, and
we doubt whether simple denials from an Aus-
trian residing at Constantinople, can descredit
the report of eye-witnesses." Our readers, when
reading the confident assertions of the Austrian
Observer, ought to- bear constantly in, mind, that
almost all its accounts of the transactions be-
tween the Turks and Greeks have been proved
false ; and that that Journal has been even
forced to admit successes on the part of the lat-
ter, which it had formerly denied, on what was
alleged to he the very best authority.

[MORNING RERALD.]

The accounts lately received from Rio Janeiro,
by which it was represented that he " Constitu-
tional Emperor" of Brazil had kicked the Con-
stitution from beneath his feet, and sent the most
prominent of its partisans upon a forced voyage,
are distinctly contradicted by the intelligence re-
ceived yesterday. There has been a change of
Ministry, and his Constitutional Majesty seems
to have effected this rather by a political coup de
main, than by any of the ordinary modes o. re-
gular Government. The political institutions
of the country, however, appear still standing,
and even untouched. Some individuals are or-
dered to leave " the empire" for such ports of
Europe as they think proper to proceed to,
within a certain specified period. From the
length of time allowed for preparation, and
the allusion to the family of one of the
parties, it is most probably intended that
they are for ever exiled from Brazil. A sen-
tence of this kind pronounced, as it would
appear, simply by the " Imperial resolution " of
the Monarch, is not conformable to the common
notions of what is Constitutional. His Brazilian
Majesty, however, gives a reason or justification,
that the safety and tranquillity of the capital
demand it. It seems most probable that some
conspiracy was discovered—but of what nature,
acid with what designs, does not appear. It may
have been an intrigue in favour of the mother
country, to unhorse the " Constitutional Empe-
ror," like that which in Portugal took down so
effectually the Constitutional King, his father.

[NEW TIMM]
Notwithstanding the efforts of a large party,
aided as they have been by extensive orders from
the country for sales in the British funds, the
plenteousness of money has at last preponderated,
and all the British securities yesterday advanced.
Consols closed more than a half per cent. better
than the day preceding, and a further advance
in them is confidently expected by the best
informed persons in the market ; for they
say, that although speculation may for a time
prevail, truth must eventually succeed ; and
hence Consols closed with what is termed
a firm market at 892. The improvement
which took place in the French Itentes at Paris
on Tuesday, has in some measure assisted the
firmness of the British market. The proceed-
ings in the Foreign Market may be noticed as
follows :—The Mexican Loan was much talked
