At a very early hour this morning we received an
-Express from Alnwick, bringing an account of the final
cloie of the Poll for the County of Northumberland.
This.great ,contest terminated by the return of Mr.
LIDDRIA, and Mr. BF:r.r., the numbers on the dose
of the WoOks being as' follow :

- 1335

The decision of the Count• will, we are convinced,
give universal satisfaction. The intemperance which
Mr. BEAUMONT has exhibited during the contest had
made a very unfavourable impression of his qualifica-
tions for' the important station of Representative of the
great and respectable County of Northumberland, while
the conduct of his opponent Mr. BELL, has added
greatly to the respect which was before entertained for
him. By this return, the whole of the Elections in
England are completed, and we have every reason to
congratulate the Country on the triumph which, in the
aggregate, the principles of his MAJESTY'S present
Government have obtained over whiggism, and its ad-
junct, radicalism.

We received last night the Paris Papers of Wednes-
day, including the Etoile dated Thursday morning.
Their contents are destitute of any political interest ;
and relate principally to the drought—and the occur-
rence of tremendous storms of thunder, lightning, and
hail.

An article from Madrid, in mentioning that the
Court had gone into mourning for three weeks for
Princess CUNEGUNDA of SAXONY, complains that
the present system of the Court mourning in Spain
renders it nearly perpetual. It appears that the Court
had waited the termination of the mourning for the
King of PORTUGAL before it began the present
mourning, at the termination of which it is to begin
that for the Empress ELIZABETH of RUSSIA.

The following are extracts of the Brussels Papers to
the Gth instant, which reached us last night. It would
seem that the Austrian Government feel a strong de-
sire to remove the obstacles opposed by the Govern-
ment of the Netherlands, to the free navigation of the
Rhine

AIJYVVLUP, JULY 1.

Accading to article 17b, of the fundamental law, a Supreme
Tribunal, having the name of the High Court, is to be formed, to
superintend the administration of justice throughout the kingdom.
If we may believe the reports of the labours of the commission,
which is to .propost, the organization of the tribunals, the city of
Malinis is indicated as the seat of the High Court. Another re-
port, which is less probable and less credited, is, that Buda, which
'has lately obtained a school of artillery, is recommended.

We consider Malines to have by far the best claim, on account
of its situation and its previous history. Its situation is unexcep-
tionable, in the centre of the kingdoth, and it was the seat of the
IPreat Council, the First Court of Justice of the Netherlands for
three centuries, and till the union of Belgium with France.

annssci.s, JULY 4.
A British Cabinet Messenger pasted through this city last night,
cm his way from Vienna to. London, with despatches.
A letter from 'Vienna of the 5;,d .lone says,—., It seems that
our Cabinet takes much interest in the affair of the free navigation
d the Rhine; which wail laid down as a principle by the Great
Powers in 1815 ; and that in consequence the negociatione. With
the Government of the Netherlands, on the ()Weeks which it
free op-
poses
to the navigation, will be prosecuted with great activity,
in order to remove the existing difficulties."

:The Moniteur of the 4th contains a letter from
Colonel FA BVIER, describing the present state of feel-
ing amongst the Greeks in terms, which, if correct,
'would spew that, notwithstanding the misfortunes
which have befallen their cause, the spirit which ex-
cited it is by no means subdued. lie says—" No one
.has ,yet faithfully depicted the Greeks. They have
some very bad points, but in, others they are admirable
and surpass the ancient Oreek, The general im-
pression produced amongst them by the catastrophe of
Missolonghi has been resolution to imitate it.—
J.fee the houses of every village turned into fortresses..
Eight hundred thousand Greeks have taken an oath
to blow each other up if necessary. Every peasant digs
a mine under his houSe, auaspends his last crown nn
purchasing gunpowder to, arm it with : • and they are
men to do what they announce. Such a people cannot
be subjugated ; no, the nation which attempts their
extermination may perish herself in the struggle."
We may attribute a good deal of this to the ardour
of the Frenchman, who describes the people in whose
cause he is serving ; but we hate reason to know that
the fall of Missolonghi has in' no degree abated the
zeal and. enthusiasm of a Considerable portion of the
Greek nation ; and we anticipate a very extraordinary
manifektation of their devotion to their 'country's cause,
as soon as Lord CociittANE forms a rallying point,
around which they may assemble.

The Knight of the Gridiron has at length returned
from his pilgrimage to the shrine of Universal Suf-
frage, and has addressed a despatch from Head-
Quarters, Kensington, to the worthy Electors of
Preston, upon what he terms the South American
Babbk. Poor man 1 it was but natural for him to
write on bubbles, now that his mind is dreaming of
the election bubble, the fluidly anticipated glories of which
have so cruelly vanished in smoke. But all sublunary
bliss, is transient, and Mr. CortuETT finds too late,
that the bubble of an election was the most evanescent
of all his other bubbles—escepting that of reputation,
which her lids sought at the risk of his honesty.
In the present case, he draws a conclusion how
much the House of Commons, hut above all,
the people, would lae beliefitted by his return, in-
stead of that of his successful rivals, whom , he
abuses for not possessing like himself the gift of Pro-
phecy. It is melancholy that this soothsayer did not
foresee his own defeat at Preston, for it would have
saved him from the in ipti tat ion of being a false Prophet.

But the gift ofprophecy in the present age is unfortunately
for those who are blessed with it, something like
that of fortune-telling—it enriches all but the pos-
sessor. The mighty magician has been all his
life boding ill to others, but doing no good to him-
self if we may judge by the result of his labours.—
He has spent his life like little wanton boys
swimming on bladders in a sea of trouble, and still
delights to dwell with the angry spirits of the storm ;
he has been 37 days Sojourning in the land of
strangers, spending all the money subscribed for his
return, and now creeps back like the prodigal sen,
leaving the subscribers two hundred pounds in
the lurch. This will prove a good lesson to the
friends of Universal Suffrage, who have not handled
pitch for nothing—it will henceforward stick
to them like the curse of KEILAMA, or the blessing of
WM. COBBETT, which are synonimous terms.. It
would be idle to follow an angry man through the web
of his disappointment, for poor COBBETT is spinning
away at the thread of his destiny till it leads him to
his old friends STANLEY and WOOD, from whom he
starts—dismembered.

The Brazil Mail, which was brought home in the
Marchioness of Salisbury packet, and arrived this
morning, has brought Rio de Janeiro Papers to the
Bth May inclusive. The news of the death of the
King of PORTUGAL reached Rio de Janeiro on the
24th April, and on its receipt, the EMPEROR re-
tired to his apartments for some days. '

On the 6th his Imperial MAJESTY opened the
Chambers in great state, and delivered in person
the, speech, given in the following extracts, in which
he announces the determination he had previously
come to of abdicating the Crown of Portugal. Want
of time and space prevent our making any observe-
tions

(From the Dktro Fluminense, of Rio de Janeiro.)

APRIL 25..—Yesterday, the 24th, the Portuguese brig
of war, Providencia, in 42 days, from Lisbon, arrived in
this port, and brought the melancholy news f the death
of Don John VI. King of Portugal and Algarves, father
of our beloved Sovereign,-on the 10th of March, after six
days illness, having previously appointed a regency to
govern the kingdom during his illness.
APRIL 28.—The 25th was to have been observed with
great splendour at Court, as the anniversary of the birth-
day of her. Majesty, the Queen of Portugal, but was
changed into a day of mourning, by the news of the death
of the King of Portugal; on 'receiving which his Majesty
immediately shut himself up in his apartments, and will so
remain till the 30th of this month.

MAY 2.--This No. contains the decree, confirming the
Regency of Portugal, that granted an amnesty for poli-
tical opinions, &c. a pardon for desertion, and the act of
abdication of the Crown of Portugal.
MAY 3.—Contains the last act of the nominations to the
dignity of Peer of the kingdom of Portugal.
MAY 4.—The following are to be added to the list of
the Peers of the kingdom of Portugal, inserted in our
preceding No.l—Murquis de Niza Conde de Oriola, D.
Joaquim Antonio Solo da Selvieiru, Viseonde de Bal-
semiio, Conde de Villa Real.

-MAY 6.—The Chambers having finished their prepara-
tory sittings, and every thing being ready for the opening
of the Session, a deputation from each of the Chambers
waited upon His Majesty on the sth, that His Majesty
might be pleased to inform them of the day and hour
which he would fix, for the opening. Accordingly,- the
Baron de Valens a, for the Chamber of the Senate, and
Senr. Pizarro, for the Chamber of Deputies, addressed his
Majesty in suitable terms, to which his Majesty replied,
that as the Session could not be opened on the 3d, though
every thing had been done by him 'and the Government,
and, as he did not wish to delay it a single day, he would
open the Chamber on this day (the 6th), at noon.
MAN 7.—Yesterday the 6th, about neon, his Majesty
the Emperor, accompanied by her Majesty the Empress
of Brazil, her Majesty the Queen of Portugal, Donna
Maria 11. and the principal Officers of the Imperial House-
hold, proceeded in great State from the- Palace of St.
Christovao, to the Chamber of the Senators, where the
Members of both Chambers were assembled. At a quar-
ter past 11, the President of the Senate said, that as the
hour appointed by his Majesty was at band, it was neces-
sary to appoint the deputation which was to receive him :
six Senators and twelve Deputies were accordingly named ;
and his Majesty's arrival being announged, the Members
took their places to receive his MajesTy standing, who
soon entered; . and the Deputation having taken
.the
crown from his
,head and placed it on a table, he de-
sired the Senators and Deputies, and the officers of his
Household, to be seated. His Majesty then addressed
the Chambers in a.speech which we, giVe below; after
which he replaced the crown on his head, and left the as-
sembly, accompanied by the same persons that attended
him on his 'entrance. .

The Empress and the Queen of Portugal were present
in a gallery on the right of the Throne, and the diplomatic
body on another on the left. The Emperor held arsplendid
drawing-room on the occasion, and the forts and ships of
war fired the customary salutes and displayed their colours
as usual. Their Majesties did not attend the theatre in
the evening on account of the strict mourning for the King
of Portugal. We are'happy to say nothing was neglected
to receive their Majesties at the Chamber of the Senate
with all suitable pomp and respect. „,
Speech of his Majesty the Emperor, May 6, 1826, on the

On the 2.lth of April, this year,._ the anniversary' of the
embarkation of my father, , Klok John VI. for ,Portugal,
I received the unhappy
and unexpected news of his death;
severe grief seized :my-heart; the plan :which
I had. to fol.
I ow, being when I least expected, legititiatteKiint of Portugal
and Algarves, . and their. dominions, .suddenly- presented
, -
itself to me,new grief now duly occupied my mind; but when
Iconsider the interest of Drazil,retuember my'word,rctolve

to maintain my honor, and reflect that I ought to snake Por-
tugal happy, and that it would be a disgrace not to do so,
what must be the affliction that troubled my soul. In seeking
means to make Portugal happy, without injuring Brazil,
and to separate them, so that they could never be again
united, I confirmed in Portugal the Regency approved
by my father ; I granted an amnesty ; I gave a constitu-
tion • I abdicated and cede'd all 'the indisputable rights
which f had to the Crown or Portugal and the sove-
reignty of that kingdom, to my beloved daughter the
Pnneess Donna Maria da Gloria, now Queen of Portu-
gal, Donna Maria 11. Some Brazilians, hitherto incredu-
lous, may now know (as they ought to know already) that
the interest of Brazil, and love for its independence, have
such weight with in; that I abdicated the Crown of the
Portuguese Monarchy, which was mine by indisputable
right, merely because in future something might arise to
prejudice the interest of Brazil,'of which I am the per-
petual defender.

Your greatest attention is due to the inclination, of youth
of both sexes, the finances, the public establishments, and
particularly the enactment of regulating laws, and the abo-
lition of others which are directly opposed to the constitu-
tion, that we may be strictly guided by it. The greater
part of the Senators and Deputies composing this assem-
bly must well remember the eviLs that some nations have
suffered from want of respect to the constituted authori-
ties, when they are attacked and' vilified, instead of being
accused and tried, according to the law, and to universal
justice.—l know that these reflections are unnecessary
in this assembly, composed of such worthy Senators
and Deputies; but they serve to testify the zeal, love,
and attachment which I really feel for the empire of Bra-
zil' and the Constitution. I might say much more to
you, but I do not think I need do so.— The constitutional
Emperor and Perpetual Defender of Brazil.
Rio Papers, May 8 inclusive.

The law's delay is a constant theme of regret to
those who are so unfortunate as to be involved in
litigation, but we think that the Judges are too often
accused of occasioning this evil. The old forms of
Courts may in some instances conduce to the
undue protraction of causes, and sometimes, the
clients, attorpies, or even Counsel, may claim
a fair share of blame in putting off what may be to
them " the eijiflay." . A case occurred on Thurs-
day in the Age-Chancellor's Court, where it was
moved by the Counsel for the plaintiff to postpone the
hearing of a cause which had been regularly set down
for argument, on the ground that the Plaintiff was
not ready. The VICE..CTIANCELLOR observed, that
the Defendant's consent must be first obtained, but
the Plaintiff's counsel thought such consent un-
necessary. His Honour was, however, of a different
opinion, and the Counsel again urged in support of
his motion, that it was not the practice to ask the
consent of the defendant; on which the VICE-CIIAN-
CELLOR remarked, that the sooner such practice was
discontinued the better, for he was determined not to
countenance the practice of former errors, and that the
case should be heard, whether the plaintiff was ready
or not. This' deeision reflects the highest credit on
the VICE-CHANCELLOR, who has judged very cor-
rectly, that if the plaintiff was not ready in a case of
his own choosing, he ought to be, and that the defimd-
ant should not be harrassed by delays ill a case which,
perhaps, might have been got up for vexatious pm-
poses.

Our City Correspondent' informs • us; that letters
from Mexico have been this morning received, by
which it appears, that another Loan for that country
was in contemplation. It is considered questionable,
whether, in the present situation of affairs in this country,
and the dubious credit which Foreign Loans nego-
ciated'here • possess, that any attempt of this descrip-
tion will be attended with success.

morning more than I} per Cent. ; Consols are 780 and for
August Account 78i buyers. The intelligence from Mexico, re-
ceived this morning, will account for, the depreciatiOn in these
securities, and were it possible to negotiate s fresh loan, would
have an evident tendency to reduce even the present price;

THE 1301PIAll.

We regret that in consequence of an error of the
press, occasioned either , by the predominance of the
bump of shortsightedness, or that of carelessness in the
reader, we cannot, at this moment, exactly ascertain
to which class it belongs; the wit of the following
excellent epigram, in the letter from our Correspond-
ent X, inserted h our yesterday's Paper, was so much
clipped as to destroy its point. The epigram should
have stood thus:—

If ou would know your friend, and wan his soul,
Like 3lust'ring Cabot, you must try the Pole;
In short, you'll separate the Sage and Bumpkin
As you would class a Melon from a Pumpkin ;
The Bind is all ;,„..,Thie truth who does not feel ?
The virtue of the State Iles Peel."
