RIO or. JANEIRO, JULY 7.

His Majesty the Emperor being informed of the events
which have taken place in the city of Oporto, and desiring
to impress on the ruenory of his august daughter, and to
begin to reward the subjects of her Majesty who were in
that city, to maintain inviolate her inalienable rights, and
the Constitutional Charter of the Portuguese monarchy,
his Majesty has been pleased to determine that her Lest
Faithful Majesty shall bear, daring her voyage to the
Court of Vienna, the title of Duchess of Oporto.
MO DE JANEIRO, senfx 21.

The list of the new Ministry, which we inserted in our
last number, was incorrect : it is said that Messrs. Vas.
concellos and Ledu would not accept. M. °Eamon has,
it would appear, remained obdurate in his resignation._
The following are the present Ministers :—M. Jose Di-
mente Pereira, Minister of the Interior, and Minister of
Justice, ad interim; M. Jose Bernardino Baptista Pereira,
Minister of Finance; M. Francisco: Cordeira Silva Forges,
Minister of War; M. Miguel de Souza Mello Alairi, Mi-
nister of Marine; the Marquis of Aracaty, Minister
.of
Foreign Affairs.
.JULY s.—The packet from the south still keeps out,
and although we have had many arrivals from Monte
Video, not a single syllable on the great question of peace
or war has transpired.

Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock, his Imperial Ma-
jesty accompanied by her Majesty Donna Maria 11., came on
board the Imperatriz frigate, and remained on board all
night ; this morning at day-break, the frigate and the cor-
vette Donna Francisca, weighed anchor and proceeded on
their voyage to Leghorn, with her Majesty the Queen of
Portugal and suite. His Imperial Majesty accompanied her
Majesty outside of the harbour, and then took a final leave
of his beloved daughter, and returned in the steamboat;
his Majesty's schooner the Ganges, will accompany her
Majesty as far as the line.
Jutr 12.—The Lady Wellinyton packet has at length
arrived, but she brings little or nothing new .r decisive as
regards peace, the assertion. of the Censor, however, is so
far confirmed, that the preliminaries of peace offered by
Brazil have been accepted, and Commissioners appointed
to finally negotiate peace between the two countries.

BUENOS AYREB, JUNE 4.
The.Correo contains a despatch dated from limn testa

de lbitni, May 16, 1828, in which the Brigadier-General,
Don Fructuoso Riveira, Rives an account of the recovery of
the Seven Towns of the Oriental Missions, by the troops
of the Republic under his command.
JUNE 14.—The despatch from General Riveira, pub-
lished in our last, is important, not only from the successes
gained, but as evincing the disposition of that officer to
aid the common cause. At Rio Janeiro and Monte Video
his defection from the standard of the Republic was looked
open ae certain, and great results expected from it. A
reference to the map will prove the effects which a well-
combined attack from the quarter of the Missions may
have upon Brazil ; and the expedition under Governor Lo-
pez bids fair to produce considerable advantages.
M. Nugent (British Consul), previous to his leaving
Chili, addressed a note to the Minister, upon the subject
of the dividends due on the Loan, stating, that on his
arrival in England, not only the Government, but
the shareholders, would expect to receive some in-1
formation upon that head ; and to do away with any
unfavourable opinion the latter may have, as well as
to prove the good intentions and sincerity of the Chilian
Government, and to alleviate in a degree the looses
of the shareholders, Mr. Nugent recommends a remit-
tance being made by his Majesty's ship Doris ; this would
not only produce the effects already stated, but 'confirm
to the English Government that Chili is worthy of occu-
pying a distinguished place among nations.
The Minister immediately sent a note to the Congress,
entreating them, after taking into consideration the salutary
effects upon the credit of the nation which compliance with
the above must have, that they would authorise the disposal
of the estate of Santo Domingo, the product of which
would allow the Government to remit 100,000 dollars on
account, and to settle other demands. The permission for
the stile was granted by the Congress.
INSURRECTION IN BOLIVIA.

Letters from Potosi state that the troops in Chuquisaca
mutinied on the morning of the 18th April. The Presi-
dent (Sucre) in endeavouring to quell them was severely
wounded and made prisoner. On the !2d the Governor of
Potosi, at the head of some troops, attacked them and suc-
ceeded in driving them out of the town, and rescued Sucre.
About 40 persons were killed on both sides. The muti-
neers retired to a place called Laguna; a great many
persons had joined them.
JUNE 21.—1 n the message from the Government to

the Legislature is the following passage:—" The ne-
gociations for peace with his Majesty the Emperor
of Brazil still continue, and there are well founded hopes

that the day is not far distant in which the war will ter-
minate satisfactorily, notwithstanding which the Govern-
ment, sensible that honor is the vital principle of nations,
continues to support it at every sacrifice until peace can be
realized, and hopes that should necessity require it, you will
with pleasure make every necessary sacrifice. The nations
of our continent continue to give us proofs of those good
wishes, and Great Britain renders us constantly the good
offices of a true friend. The officers and forces by land
and sea have displayed great constancy and bravery, and
have obtained considerable advantages, which recommend
them to the respect and gratitude of every good citizen."

BUENOS AYRES, JtrNit 22.—Extract of a private letter
of the above date :—" Vessels will get in and out, in spite
of the Brazilian blockading squadron; several have, how-
ever, been detained, and sent to Monte Video. Admira
Brown, with nine schooner•, went down to Ensinada a
few days since ; it brought on an action with the Brazilian
squadron, which continued eight hours, and in the end
they were obliged to make way for our gallant Brown.—
His little squadron retired to the Inner Roads last night
without further molestation, having had two killed in thee
fight, and none wounded. I cannot give you much infor-
mation respecting peace : three deputies have been appointed
from this Government, to proceed to Rio de Janeiro to
negotiate, viz.—Don Juan Ramon Balearse, Don Tomas
Guido., and Don T. Cavia. No time is fixed for their em-
barkation. Various opinions are hazarded; upon the results.
The most prevalent is, that they will come back as they

went. Brazil affects to hold this Republic in great con-
tempt, she will, however, find her mistake by and by.
I have invariably informed you the people do not sensibly
feel the war (I mean the natives), the unfortunate neutral
is the only sufferer. Our Senate opened on the 1 4th inst,.
the British p reket contains a full report of the Speech
or Message read by the Governor, it speaks with
confidence •f the ressorces to continue the war until an
honourable peace can be obtained.
The Exchange on London is 164. to 17d. per paper
dollar. Doubloons 48 paper dollars each. Norton, the
Brazilian Commodore, had his right arm shot off in the
action with the privateer General Brandzan, and has
gone to Monte Video. The British ship of war Heron
was off the Port of Salado on the 13th of June, landed
despatches, and sailed again on the 15th. The Souc'
Jack, Rippondell, from London, arrived on the 21st o
June, and the British packet ship Redpole, Bullock, from
Falmouth, fur Rio and Monte Video, on the 20th ; the
brig General Brandzon, privateer, returning from a
cruize, was chased on shore by the Brazilian squadron on
the 16th of June. The greater part of the crew, with the
Captain, got on shore. On the 17th she was blown up by
the Brazilians.

News from Lisbon has been received to the
31st of August inclusive. The Usurper had
published an Order of the Day to the Army,
congratulating it upon " the happy restoration
of tranquillity, after the insane enterprise of the
rebels !" In the plenitude of his satisfaction, at
the conduct of his partisans, Mrotrzt. conferred
a number of rewards and distinctions on some
particular corps, and promoted many officers and
men rho had particularly distinguished them-
selves. So says the Gazette of Lisbon ; but
far otherwise does the private correspondence
from that quarter, picture forth the deplorable
state of anarchy and ruin to which the people
are reduced through the cruel conduct of
MIGUEL and his blood-thirsty agents. The
prisons continued to be the scenes of horror
and assassination. The most frivolous pretence
was laid hold of for arresting obnoxious in-

dividuals, and confiscating their property to the
treasury of the public robber. The recognition
of the paper blockade of Madeira by the English
Government, gave the finishing blow to the hopes
of the Constitutional party, and delighted the
Miguelites beyond description. Indeed, they
went so far as to say that our Government re-
cognised Don MIGUEL, in consequence of
.this
last act of imbecility. But far different was the
feeling produced in the mind of every English-
man,—nay, in the mind of every one, as a Cor-
respondent describes it—who has taken an interest
in the glory and welfare of the British Nation,
on learning that the English Government had
acknowledged the blockade of Madeira—the
last hope of the Constitutionalists. But what
renders the " effective blockade" as acknow-
ledged by our Government more absurd than
ever, is the fact that wl ile the Earl of ABER-
DEEN was big with its importance, the two
vessels, mere sloops, which MIGUEL had sent
to Madeira—had actually returaed to Lisbon in
consequence of the interference of the English

Consul at Madeira, and the inefficacy d the
sloops to enforce the blockade ? Really we are
come to a pretty pass when the ewe-boasted

honour of Old England is committed to the care
of those who prostitute it by abetting Usurpers,
and recognising the most sl)ly
acts of their
wanton tyraniiv.

To .make the matter still worse, a correspondent
of a Morning Paper writes from Lisbon, that a
froposal has been made by cur Government to
MIGUEL, to guarantee to him the Sovereignty Of
Portugal, provided—
" Ist, That he shall restore things (bat men halt been
forgotten) exactly as they were on his arrival in this coun-
try in February last ; that is to say, that he aitonld re-esta-
blish nominally the Charter, as Count de Ponte used te,
say in the House of Peers, nothing more, nothing leas.,
" 2dly. That he shall marry little Queen Mary, ",
niece, to reign along with her, and not be a nominal
King, as the law of the country directs.
" Silly. That in order to obtain Don Pedro's content
to the fulfilment of the marriage and his forgiveness for
the boyish trick of usurpation and all such trifles, that he
(Miguel) must oblige himself to give over to the Brazils
the Cape de Verd Islands and all other possessions of 13°,1'
tngal in Africa and Asia, retaining for himself only Al a'
deira and the Azores.'
d I
" It is further slated, that by a secret article Engl'
is to have Goa and its dependencies, as the well-deter"'
brokerage of such a job ! .
" Now I cannot help placing some confidence in this .1
statement, when I recollect that Lord Aberdeen it your
Minister for Foreign Affairs, and Lied Strangford has been
appointed by him. Nothing is too incredible to be dose by,
a Ministry which acknowledges the nominal blockade 0'
Madeira, anti appoints such an Ambassador.
" I must observe, however, that Miguel is said not.to
have approved the aforesaid proposals, in spite of the advice
of most of his conneillore. It is believed he would consent
to the 2il and 3d articles, provided the Ist was struck oat ;
for he has declared that he had rather lose the kingdom than
re-establish the charter even nominally.
" Miguel is so well aware of the love of his subjects,
that he dare not even drink water, or eat the least thing
wherever he goes, unless it comes from the canteen Which.
follows him constantly, and is given to him by the hand of
his barber the Baron Pires, of Quells& This was evident
the day before yesterday, when he was present at an enter-
tainment in the Convent of St. Vineent, for he drank
water twice which Pires took oat of a box locked with
two keys, and presented to him !
" I am happy to inform yen, or rather to confirm t°
you, the statement in to-day's Gazette, that the Etnpeof
of Morocco has sent here one of his Admirals in a fine brig
of war, to compliment Miguel on his accession to ,the
_
throne, taking, therefore, the lead of year Ministers, way
send only private Ambassadors.
" Dr. Sir Augustus West is almost entirely recovered J
his broken rib; but the public satisfaction he expects ig
out of the question, and the assassin, the Major of Pollee,
Baron Pires, Miguel, and all his private gang, laugh hear
tily at him, and at all the English.
" Sir John Doyle continues imprisoned, and will ecsl'
time so for a long while, if what I have been told is cep
r,ct—viz. that the tribunal which was to release him 10°
referred him to the Military Commission of Purificatielt
which is a most wanton act of tensing cruelty. Mr.Yout
was to have been released to-day on signing a bond not
meddle nor to speak of politics, brit I could not learn''
ther lie really breathes fresh air. Ten to one but cos:,
excuse has been found for detaining him some days longer'

We have received Barbadoes Papers to the
19th July, they contain long accounts which
had been received per the mail-boat from isji'
tigua, giving particulars of the stormy discussi°lls
which had taken place in the House of Aocgr
bly in that Island, on the late suspension of the
proceedings in the Court of Admiralty by the
Governor, Sir PATRICK Ross. These tuthaPPl
circumstances have given rise to violent alter'
cations, and thrown the whole Colony i"t°
an alarming state of excitement, these disse'r
sioss between the Executive and the otl'ef
brandies of the Legislature are most detrii
to be lamented, especially in a case like the
one we are now considering, when the chti:
racter of the Governor stands so very high 1,,
the estimation of all ranks of society. Is 1'
further added, the Governors of the Colo sie
arc not in a situation to be envied—the bet °f
men, the most amiable, the most disposed to
conciliate the inhabitants, and serve the Colony
will find themselves in a painful state of
with the free inhabitants, as long as the 13ritis
Government continues to distract the Colon''
with the unintelligible laws relating to the Slttsls:
and the British Government listens to every °l4

sionary scheme of the Anti-Colonial parts.

Brussels Papers of the 10th inst. contain the
following from Odessa, which speaks in 6, fill°

of much confidence :

°DMA, AUG. 16'.4e
Never was Odessa so brilliant as it is at this Pre'
moment, when the Imperial family with a nuater,:eij,e
court, and the foreign Ambassadors, honour it with 7,,•11
presence. His Majesty the Emperor, however,
in a few days return to the army, when the reittf°r—h,
meats will have arrived, and the operations 11 „
recommenced with vigour. It is probable, theroPieje
that a decisive battle will soon take place, on which the
fate of the campa;gn must depend, and by what 1$ t‹):
hoped the Porte will find ibelf compelled to give the ea
li
faction and security required. Hitherto it was not jodSo
»ereeeury on our side to send greater forces into the °h:
in order not to increase the difflenities of providing sued
eistance. The possession of Kustendjl, and the elPet, f t
fall of Varna, which hat been vigorously bombard:
some days by Admiral Greig, facilitate the conveYe_nont re
previsions to the army, and allow lie many
to march forward as may be thought necessary to
up the advantages already gained. Not toll
iM
the main army be increased, but the detached Orrthe
enabled to accelerate their operations, and to act ns,.•
offensive. Thus General Geismar, in Little Welleculaci'
receives at this moment considerable reinforcetneo"'
he will not delay transferring the theatre of war to Seff,6,,'
a considerable army being already *Meted be occ"PY "'

The next fortnight will thew what impression the lip;
pearance of General Geismar will make in Servisy an
what embarrassment it will canoe the Porbe,
for they
viatts impatiently expect the arrival of our troops t 0 t deo
Blare against the Porte. If the Emperor has hither
endeavoured to avoid letting the Servians take pot in tbtce
war, this eonld be done. only so long as there was eftn'e to
hope that the Porte, sensible of its errors, might hastfe,,
repair them, and make good the affronts lied iejrirj'4
offered to the Russian nation. The obstinate peeseierfr:4
of the Divan in its system most change the intentions e'
adversaries. To the evils of foreign war are now added ioefeh
nal discontents, and according to all the accounts
have been received here from Constantinople, the Pe°:
Set
are much indieposed:agAinst the Government, and the.-
reason to dread the revival of the Janissaries. ate
In Armenia these dangerous enemies of the StiltB,„ „.,-
