Iceive all those who desire to speak to her on the Monday, Wed-
: neaday, and Friday, of each week, between the hours of seven and
nine in the evening.
Her Royal Highness the Infanta Isabella Maria, desiring tole.
duce the expellees of the Royal Hriusehold, called before her the
principal Officers charged with the various branches, in order
on a view oldie estimate of the expenses for the present year to
ste what reduction might be made in them without detracting from
what is due,to her august person and the Royal Family, or leaving
in distress the families of old servants of the Royal Household,
whom her august father relieved with some part of his revenue.
In consequence of the conference held in .her presence by the above
principal officers, Her Royal Highness ordered a reduction of the
expense to the amount of 104,823,163 reals.

The Ahnanack of Lisbon, for 1826, which is lately published,
is much superior in every respect to those which have preceded it.
We select the following particulars as generally interesting. The
Kingdom of Portugal contains four thousand one hundred pa-
rishes, 765,395 houses, and a population of 3,013,900
souls; the superficial extent of the kingdom is 3,150 leagues
(twenty to a degree). The list of persons enjoying titles
contains 3 Dukes, 34 Marquisses, 76 Counts, 41 Viscounts, and
27 Barons, or 181 in all ; and it is to be observed, that 122 of
these persons owe their titles to the munificence of the late King,
who, during the 34 years of his reign, created 1 Duke (Victoria),
.12 Marquisses, 42 Counts, 40 Viscounts, and 27 Barons, not to
speak of the titles created, and extinct during those 34 years by
the death of the possessors, but only reckoning those now exist-
ing; so that there are 59 titles anterior to the reign of the late
'King, and 122 of his creation.

'procession: in expiation of the most atrocious insults offered sonic
time since to the Holy Sacrament by impious persons. His Ma-
jesty the Emperor and King, Don John VI., having fixed that

From such sets, and by all classes that can add to the edification
and lustre of this exercise of royal devotion, piety and, penitence.
The Government has given the necessary orders for the perform-
ance of this ceremony, not doubting of the ardent co-operation of
all the faithful of this capital as usual oil similar occasions.

NIDDA, JUN: 4.

Immense damage has been done in this and the neighbouring
districts within the last week, by dreadful hail-storms and torrents
of rain, which have destroyed all the standing crops, and in many
places covered the fields and gardens with earth and stone, brought
down from the higher parts .of the country. The river Nidda
was yesterday swelled to a rapid torrent, and brought down with
it ruins of buildings, household furniture of every description, and
dead cattle. No person in our district has perished, but the
corpses of six persons, of the country higher up, have been found,
and it is thought that the number of those who have lost their
lives is much more considerable.

newal of the measures respecting the liberty of the press and those

quidation of it.air claims has not made the least progress during
the last year.

The Leominster Election hat had a singular termi-
nation—a double return hating bun made, of Mr.
Bish, the Lottery Contractor, and Rowland -Stephen-
son, Esq. It is said that a similar case of a double
return, on account of the assumed ineligibility of one
of the Candidates, has not occurred for upwards of

century.

COVENT-GARDEN TifRATRE.—A curious exam-
ple of the uncertainty of theatrical speculations was exhibited at.
Covent-Garden last night. A party of performers who took a
benefit, had engaged the whole strength of the Italian Opera Com.
Play to sing for them. Madame Pasta was advertised—Nl,.
grim, De Ilstgnis Curioni, and a dozen others. It was a coo_
cert.,. which, at the usual rates paid to such singers, would have
east the undertakers more than 1001. To the surprise of all play-
