THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, 7' WEL VE O' CL CK.
We have several arrivals this morning, but more par-
ticularly from the West Indies, most of old dates.
Accounts are stated to have been received from Madrid
of the 2d inst., by which authentic information has been
received there of the operations of Don Miguel's army;
that on the 25th ult. his head-quarters were to be at
Torres Vedras, and that his van-guard was beyond Villa
Franca, which place the Pedroites bad left, and were
concentrating their forces at Sacarem, two and a half
leagues from Lisbon, it being a very strong position for
the Pedroites, situated on the banks of a lake,—the
ground is also advantageous. It is also stated that
Don Pedro's gun-boats are to be stationed there,
and the large vessels outside the lake, under the com-
mand of Admiral Napier ; it is therefore probable that a
very severe contest will take place on that position, about
the 3d or 4th inst., by a division of 12,000 of the
Miguelites. It is also added that Count Larochejaquelin
has taken measures on the other side of the Tagus, his
troops being concentrated near Aldea Gallega, and it was
expected that before the 10th inst. the fate of Lisbon
would be decided.
By the French papers this morning, we have the fol-
lowing :—" According to private letters from the Hague,
it appears that the different Ministers there are looking
to a war ; every where the strong places are putting in re-
pair. It is also remarked that the countenances at the Court
have more pleasant appearances, and that the meeting of
the Sovereigns has no other motive than to declare war
against England, France, and Belgium ; but the King
Qf Prussia is against hostilities at present. What I write
you is positive,—do not look upon it as an on dit."
THE FUNDS.
If we can put confidence in the Madrid accounts in
respect to the affairs of Portugal, it appears that Bourmont,
with the Miguelite army, is in fall advance on Lisbon, and
has approached to Sacarem, which is within twelve
milts of the capital. A report prevails that Bourmont
has sent a flag of truce to Don Pedro, demanding its sur-
render ; but in the absence of any direct arrival from that
quarter, numerous reports will be put into circulation for
sinister views, and which it is our duty to lay before the
public to treat them according to their own judgment;
ere this, no doubt, the fall of the capital has been decided,
and we may expect every hour important information on
the subject.

DONNA MARIA.—The Lisbon Constitu.
tional Chronicle of the 22d of August, contains the Ad_
dress of the President and Council of the town of
Benavente to his Imperial Majesty the Duke of Braganza,
Regent of Portugal in the name of her Most Faithful
Majesty Donna Maria 11., on the occasion of presenting
their act of acclamation ; that of the 24th contains an
official account of the acclamation of the Queen Donna
Maria 11. in the towns of Enxaria dos Cavalleiros,Lugar
e Reguengo, du Carvoeira, and Villa Verde dos Francos;
that of the 26th of August gives an oflicial account of the
acclamation of her Majesty, in the towns of Muj, Sines,
Barreiro, Lavradio, Coina, and Altros Vedros; likewise
a loyal address front the municipality of the town of
Alcoxete. The Chronicle of the 24th of August con-
tains a very flattering complimentary official letter from
the War Minister to Viscount Cape St. Vincent (Admi-
ral Napier), accompanying the grant of Grand Cross of
the Tower and Sword, which his Imperial Majesty the
Duke Regent, in the name of the Queen, had been
pleased to confer upon him in part recompense for his
brilliant services.

Complaints are made in Upper Canada of a
large black worm, which is making fearful ravages with
the grass and wheat of the new settlements. It appears
to be as voracious as the locusts of Egypt. A single
wheat field of 50 acres had been entirely cut off by this
new and destructive animal.

COWES, SEPT. 12.—The Earl and Countess
of DURHAM'S long-promised fete at Egypt House, in
the northern part of the island, is at length positively
fixed for Saturday next. The preparations have been
made without the slightest regard to expense. A party
of the Royal Artillery, with seven nine-pounders, intended
to fire additional salutes, disembarked this day from
Portsmouth. The Duchess of KENT and the Princesses

MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCES ON THE
TAMAR.—Wednesday week two fatal accidents occurred
on the river, within a mile of each other, and about the
same hour. In the first instance two lads, farmers' ap-
prentices, were sailing in a boat at Hole's Hole, when, it
is supposed from mismanagement, the boat overturned,
and one lad, aged fifteen, was drowned ; but the other
succeeded with great difficulty in making the shore. As
nearly as possible at the same time a bargeman in the em-
ploy of Messrs. Gill and Rundle, of Morvrelham, fell be-
tween two barges off Cargreen Point, and before his
comrades could lift him quite out of the water the barges
sec ung together, and nearly severed his body in two. He
has left a widow and four children.—Plymouth Paper.
Information was given at the Thames Police
Office on Thursday night of a robbery on board the Mata
brig, which lately arrived from Rio Janeiro, committed
by one of the passengers, who was supposed to be a re-
spectable merchant. It appears that before leaving the
ship he took an opportunity of slipping into the cabin
unobserved, and carrying off a packet containing gold in
bars to the value of 3001. He also went off without
paying his passage ; and his trunk, which he left with the
captain as a pledge for payment, was found to contain
little of value.
