.LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, DEC. 28, 1826.

. We received last night, in usual course, the Paris
Papers of Monday, (with the exception of an Etoile,
which does not appear to have been published that
evening,) and we have this morning received by ex-
press the Etoile of Tuesday evening, dated yesterday
morning. The contents of these papers are exceedingly
important, not only as containing accounts of the
increasing extent of the insurrection in Portugal
against the Constitutional Government, and the ad-
vances made by the Royalists in all directions ; but
likewise as putting us in possession of communications
from Lisbon to the 18th inst. of high interest.
The Quotidienne of Monday contradicts its former
assertion, that the division of the Royalists, under the
Marquis de CHAVES, had entered Coimbra on the
12th, stating, that it appears that the Marquis actually
took possession of Oporto on that day, and that it
must have therefore been the corps under the Marquis
ale IVIONTALEAORE, which had occupied Coimbra.
It states further, that the Regency itself was menaced
in Lisbon, where the exasperation of the people, and
the anxiety of the Government, were at their height
and it indulges in speculations, that, on the 20th
Dec., the capital of Portugal had thrown off the yoke
of England, and effected the overthrow of the Consti-1
tution, in which case the British expedition would not
be able to land.

The letters in the Etoile, from Lisbon to the 18th
inst., however, do liot mention the occupation of either
Oporto or Lisbon, and therefore we trust the. intelli-
gence in the Quotidienne may prove to be incorrect.
Lisbon itself, indeed, appears to be in a most unsettled
state. An Order of the Intendant-General of Police,
o►► the 12th, prohibited all assemblages of people, on
account of the violence of party feeling ; and directed
their dispprsion by force.
_ _

The Etoile contains extracts from the Speech of
the Count de VILLA REAL, late Ambassador from
Portugal at the Court of Madrid, in the Chamber of
Peers on the 4th instant. He distinctly charges all
the Ambassadors of other Foreign Powers with an
understanding with Spain till the last. After alluding
to accounts which had reached him of the plans of the
rebels, he says—" I applied again to the Foreign Am-
bassadors ; but I remarked iu their speeches a con-
stant regard for the party which is still dominant in
Spain, and the regret that they were without positive
instructions."

Alluding to the communication of the taking of the
Oath by Dow MIGUEL to the Constitution, he says—
" I endeavoured to draw verbal explanations from
the Foreign Ministers. But far from adopting the
considerations that I sought to give ellen to, they
answered that as the Portuguese Government refused
to rely on the promises of Spain, they could not ab-
stain from considering it (Portugal) as the aggressor.
" I heard that the Court of Madrid had been offi-
cially instructed as to the betrothal of the Infant DON
MIGUEL.

" I availed myself of this fact, to demand a categori-
cal answer ; it was still evasive, and I resolved to de-
part. I knew positively that the Minister of Eng-
land continued to take the same steps I had taken.
" The rebels invaded our territory on the 2Sd
November ; the Madrid Cabinet was informed on the
26th ; and it was then only that it declared the Por-
tuguese deserters should not be admitted into Spain.
" The invasion of Portugal is an offence towards
France and England; towards the former, because
undertaken in presence of a French array ; and to-
wards the latter, because it is in manifest contempt of
its counsels and its menaces."
We must refer our readers to the long extracts from
these Papers, which from their important nature we
have inserted in a preceding column.

We have also received from Paris a printed copy of
the Speech submitted by M. HYDE NEGvILLs,
to the First Bureau of the Chamber of Deputies, on
the occasion of the nomination of the Commissioner
charged with concurring in drawing up the answer to
the speech from the Throne. This worthy Dgputy,
who has taken such umbrage at the manly tone assu-
med by Mr. CANNING, he it recollected, was recalled
by the French Government' ftcnn Lisbon, in conse-

quenee of the part he aeted there some time since.-4
We subjoin the printed observations :

OF A COMMISSIONIR TO CONCUR IN DRAWING UP AN A2014'111

TO THE ROYAL SPEECH, EY M. HYDE DE NEUVILIA, (COUNT

DS BII1POSTA) :-
" I demand that the Commissioner who shall be ap'
pointed to concur in drawing up the answer to the Speveh
from the throne, be specially directed to insist, that, with
all due regard to Parliamentary decorum, the answer of
the Chamber shall be such as may raise our national
dignity, which has been outraged by the
arrogant and
ridiculous philippic of Mr. Canning, and by the inertdible speech which has been forced upon our Minister for
Foreign Affairs. It is necessary that England am"
know, that if we have any burden, we have not any
manner of need of assistance to relieve us of it. It is
necessary that Mr. Canning should know that we wish for
peace—that we will endeavour to maintain peace—but
that we do not fear war ; and that, in short, there ere no
longer any malcontents among us when a question arises
of avenging the honour of the country. Honour is a stsm•
dard which will always in France produce a union of all
opinions.
" Convinced that every man who is a friend of the 001
of the Bourbons—that every man who is a friend of legiti•
macy, of the Charter, and of national liberties—that every
Man, in short, who has pride, who has honour in his
heart, and French blood in his veins, cannot but think
.as
I do, I confidently submit to the bureau of the committee
a proposition dictated by grief and patriotism."

Dutch Papers of the 23d inst. have been receives
this morning. Under the head of Brussels, it appears
that a Cabinet Messenger from Madrid had passed
through that city for St. Petersburgh, to solicit the
good offices of the Emperor NICHOLAS in the
affairs of Spain,—that is, that the Emperor may be
pleased to put right what the worthy FIRDIN AND has
purposely put wrong ! Unfortunately for both parties,
the one is too far off to render any effective assistance,
and the other is too obstinate to receive it. The
sickness in Holland is still very alarming :

These measures may now be adopted too late to rersig

the evil already done, but they are as decisive as could be
expected.

The affair of Pampeluna is continued by the papers of
the south of Frame, though denied by.the Etoile of Mon-
day. Had the plot succeeded, it must have produced a
great effect at the present moment.
The Chamber of Deputies has been in a secret sitting
on the Address since one o'clock. The discussion is ex 4
pected to be very animated. Several important amend-
ments are to be proposed to the Address drawn up by the
Central Commission.

The courier which brought the news from Madrid, left
that city on the 20th instant. Ferdinand's Camarillo pre-
tend that they had agreed to the terms above stated before
the declaration of France, or the message of the King of
England, reached the Spanish capital.
The French Ministry expect that the arrival of English
troops will soon extinguish the rebellion in Portugal.
I send you a eopy of the speech of Hyde de Nettville,
one of the ultra-firebrands.

It is remarkable, that with all the means of com-
munication by steam-boats possessed by this country,
we are not in possession of any direct intelligence from
Lisbon of a later date than the 10th inst. Neither
the public service, nor private enterprise, has on this
occasion overcome the difficulties presented by wind
or weather to arrivals from any Portuguese ports ; and
we are, m consequence, eight days behind the commu-
nications from Lisbon through the circuitous medium
of the French Papers. We hope, however, we may
infer from this circumstance, that no event of a very
unfortunate character has occurred to the Constitutional
Government, for, as it is known that a steam-boat
would be in the Tagus some days ago, we conclude,
that if circumstances of extraordinary importance had
occurred, she would have been detached from any ser-
vice on which she was, about to be employed, for the
Purpose of conveying early intelligence to our Govern-
ment of the actual state of affairs. The wind still re-
maining directly contrary to vessels coming into the
Channel, we may still be kept in uncertainty for some
days, uultss a steam-boat be sent home ; and, as the
safety of this means of communication across the Bay
of Biscay is now satisfactorily established, we trust
that some regular plan of conveying the Lisbon Mails
by steam-vessels will be shortly established. The inte-
rest which all classes of persons have taken in the events
In Portugal, as well as the importance which it must, be
of to the Government to possess early information,
combine to render it most desirable that such a system
of communication should be speedily adopted.

After so long a continuation of Peace, any prospect
of War naturally rouses the soldier to a consciousness
of his importance to society : officers and men seem
to tread the earth with a prouder step than they have
done for some time past, and should their hopes of a
war be realized, we feel confident that the British Army
w.
skew that they have not passed the interval in
the Plains of Capua.

Our Dover Correspondent informs us, that yester-
day morning three King's Messengers, charged with
despatches from the Foreign Office, arrived there, and
immediately proceeded for Calais. The departure of
three Messengers together was a very unusual occur-
rence, and the circumstance created some sensation in
Dover. A Foreign Courier landed there very early
in the morning ; he came in a galley from Boulogne.

Our City Correspondent says, that by information
received from Pans this morning, the differences
are adjusted between Spain and Portugal, and that a
Spanish Ambassador has set off to Lisbon ; that
Spain sends 4,000 troops to the frontiers, to form a
hue on the side. of Portugal to prevent any further
aggression. The French Itentes were lower on Tues-
day evening, owing to some heavy sales being effected
at Paris by some London speculators ; Three per Cents.

The accounts from Madrid state, that all the con-
veuts on the frontiers have of late had a military ap-
pearance; in some they were busy making military
accoutrements, in others casting ball and drilling the
new recruits for the Portuguese insurgents. It is es-
timated that the clergy have subscribed eight millions
of reels towards the Portuguese expedition.

It is asserted that a Manifesto is in town, issued by
the Royalists of Spain, declaring that if FERDINAND
departs from his present system, he will be dethroned,
4114 that the INFANTADO shall succeed him.
