STEA.M-BOAT ACCIDENT.—In explanation
of a paragraph in our Paper of yesterday respecting an
accident occasioned by a steamer running down a boat,
we have to state, from information we have received, that
the steamer in question was the Endeavour, Capt. JAMES
JoNES; the other two boats, the Diana and Diamond,
belonging to the Old Margate Company, were lying by
that day It was incorrect to say that any one was
drowned ; the gentleman and waterman were saved after
being nearly five minutes in the water, and the lady hung
by the man rope at the ladder until rescued from her
perilous situation. Both the lady and gentleman were
taken on board and landed at Queenhithe. The water-
maces name was Wm. Jones, of Hungerford.

It is now several days that it Las been currently re-
ported that an important affair took place before Coimbra,
on the road to Lisbon, between the armies under Dour-
mont and Villa Flor, in which the vanguard of the former
was completely defeated; but nothing of this bas been
officially published ; and it was with a tone of regret, and
the most softening terms, that the Madrid Gazette spoke
of Migtsel's reverses at Oporto.

The Carlo-Absolutist party has been set in extrordinary
motion by the publication in the Times of the intercepted
correspondence, which has put to light its mancauvres anti
plots with the Powers of the north. Seeing itself so
seriously compromised, that party seemed to think that
nothing remained so be risked by a renewed effort to bring
about an intervention in favour of Miguel. At a Cabinet
Council lately held in the King's chamber, M. de L:Na
renewed the proposition for an immediate intervention ;
but the King bad the good sense to oppose himself to it,
and so matters remain for the present. The corps of
observation on the Portuguese frontiers his, neverthe-
less, lately received considerabie reinforcements. Five
newly recruited regiments of " provincial militia" have
been sent to that frontier. Ai. de Zea has intimated to
the diplomatic agents of the foreign Governments that
this measure has been taken at once to keep off the
contagion of democracy spread by Don Pedro in Portugal,
and the contagion of the cholera morbus which is preva-
lent in that country. M. de Zea need not have said
anything about the cholera, for it is now sufficiently
notorious that no cordons sanitaires or other pre-
cautions have the power of arresting its progress, as
has been proved everywhere, and in Sp tin itself,
as it has penetrated into Andalusia arid Huelva, where,
however, it has not yet caused much mischief. M. de
Zea, finding his favorite scheme opposed, is now exerting
himself to bring about an arrangement relative to Portugal,
on the conditions proposed by Sir S. Canning, which he
had at the time thought proper to reject—that is, the
exclusion of Don Pedro and the charter. This now
appears to him a desirable pis oiler, because it would be a
means of keeping Miguel in view, and making it easy for
him to return. Meanwhile M. de Zee and his allies do
not fail to make good use of the late impolitic acts of Don
Pedro. They have taken care to point them out to the
British anti French Governments.

The liberal party here, which may now be called the
Queen's party, is anxiously waiting for the settlement of
the affairs of Portugal, and the establishment of Donna
Maria. The men of that party very properly conceive
that it would be a means of giving fair play to the united
efforts of England and France, and of potting a stop to the
incessant intrigues of the Spanish Government anti the
northern Powers, which necessarily produce a reacting
influence over the progress of improvement in this country.
Don Carlos, who seems to be wandering in Portugal
like a man who knows not what he ought to do, is now in
Abrantes. It is said that a part of his equipages has been
seized by a detachment from Dan Pedro's army.
The infant Don Francisco and his wife, arrived in
Madrid last night, from St. Sebastian, where they had
gone to be present at the fetes given in celebration of the
jura.

MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS' COM-

AIISSION.

Sir Francis Pa!grave, one of the Commissioners ap-
pointed by his Majesty to act under the Municipal Corpo-
rations' Commission, now sits daily in the Tuwn Clerk's
house, at Guildhall, for the purpose of examining the
records, in order to supply Parliament with full informa-
tion as to the existing state of the C wporation, &c. &c,
The following is a copy of the circular sent to the several
Companies of the City, who have carried everything with
so high a hand for such a series of years, and whose ex-
travagant expenditure has raised the voices, and almost
the hands, of the unparticipating citizens violently against
them. Copies to the same effect have been sent all through
the country :
