LISI3ON PAPERS.

LISBON, OCT. I,—Senhor de Linn, the in-
tendant General of the Police, announces, that
any
person who conceals a sailor shall be fined thirty

milrees._
The captains of merchantmen ready to sail from
this port, who desire convoy to Madeira, are di-
rected to apply
.to the Navy Office for instructions.
We learn by letters from Gibraltar of the 6th
tilt., that two Brazilian frigates had sailed from that
port in different directions—the Imperatriz for its
destination, ta.l the D. Francisca for Brazil. On
account of the high west winds, the latter returned
on the same day : it seems to have sailed again for
Brazil on the lath.

The 29th September being the Saint's day, of our
august Sovereign, was solemnized with every de-

FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 24, 1828.

The Penenden Heath Meeting—that im-
pertinent appeal to what remains in the English
character, of intolerance, absurdity, and ultra-
Toryism—takes place this day. Even now
while we pen these few hasty observations, the
precious business is going forward. Lord WiN-
CHELSEA is furbishing up the stinted—the very
stinted—portion of brains with which it has
pleased nature to endow him : Sir E. KNATCH-
BULL is pouring forth his asinine nonsense :
Mr. WELLS is braying back an echo ; and the
whole tag-rag and bob-tail of the faction are
pricking up their long ears in extacy. And
what will be the result of all this ? Can there
possibly be a doubt ? Are not the names already
mentioned (and these, we believe, so far as good
sense goes, are among the most gifted of the
squad), sufficient vouchers for their defeat
The question scarcely admits of an answer.
While on the subject of these Brunswickers,
we will just venture to allude to a slight slip
which our able cotemporary, the Times, has
made respecting them. It has called them the
Hydra Faction. Surely this is an error. The
Hydra was a Single animal with a hundred heads—
here there are a hundred animals and upwards,with-
out a single head among them all ! Our zealous
and public-spirited cotemporary will, no doubt,
rectify a mistake so injurious to the intellect of
the Brunswickers.

But to return to the business more imme-
diately before us. The Meeting of to-day
is, as we before observed, an experiment on
the feelings of Englishmen. Should it suc-
ceed ( absit omen !), it will he immediately
followed up by experiments of a bolder cha-
racter.

County after county will in turn be
;arnpered with—promises will be made—speeches
perpetrated—threats held forth—the whole ma-

lignity, in short, of a faction, strong in the con-
vulsions of approaching dissolution, will be put
actively in force, to compel obedience to its high
behests—aye, even though KING, Church, and

Constitution, be shaken to the centre in the

struggle.

Men of Kent, with you it remains (how awful
the responsibility !) to check these unprincipled
despots. The question, remember, that you are
called on to discuss, is not the mere limited one,
of whether you will pay a due obedience to your
landlords, or no : the Brunswickers may strive
to hoodwink you, by restricting it to this ; but,
be assured, it is of a mightier, a more compre-
hensive character. It is a question in which the
whole United Kingdom is concerned : a ques-
tion, with which peace—freedom—toleration—

all that is sacred to man—all that endears him to
existence—all that sheds a summer splendour on
his prospects—that calls forth his energies, and
renders his home a Paradise—is closely and in-
separably connected. In a word, it is a question
of freedom on the one side, of unblushing tyranny
on the other. Can you hesitate between the two ?

The French Journals contain little or no fresh
intelligence from the theatre of war. The Journal
des Debats hints that the late movements of the
Turks in Little Wallachia and Silistria were the
result of previously concerted operations.
PAcISA has sailed with his troops
for Egypt, and 1,200 Egyptians have been left
by treaty to reinfOrce the Turkish garrisons of
Modon, Coron, and Patras.

The raising of the Standard of the Prophet—
the particulars of which we have given in another
part of our Paper—is a very important feature in
the present war between Turkey and Russia. It
seems, however, to have been somewhat unac-
countably delayed. The latest intelligence in
the German Papers prevent us doubting that
the Pacha of Widdin has been repulsed with
considerable loss.

By the arrival of the Braeil mail this morning,
we have received the Diario Fluminente to the
30th of August, which states that news was re-
ceived at Rio de Janeiro, on the 24th, from
Madeira, that Don MIGUEL had been pro-
claimed King—that his troops had entered
Oporto, and that the Provisional Junta, the
Marquis (le PALMELLA, &c., had fled to Eng-
land. But as this news was given at Madeira
by the frigate which brought the Governor ap-
pointed by the Infante,.and whom the inhabitants
of Madeira, who stand fast in the oath of fidelity
to Don PEDRO IV., refused to receive, these
statements seem to deserve little credit, and we
wait for their confirmation. The Papers do not
mention, or even allude to, the relations with
Buenos Ayres. - The. following are extracts :
RIO DE JANEIRO, AUG. 11.

Major-General Jose Manoel de Almeide, Gover-
nor of Monte Video, is permitted to resign that post
in consequence of his precarious state of health, and
Major-General Manoel Jose Rodriguez, of Colonia
de Sacramento, succeeds him; and the latter is suc-
ceeded by Major-General Joao Chrisostomo Callado.

AUG. 22.—His Majesty the Emperor having
fixed the 21st of this month, at ten in the morning,
to receive from Lord Ponsonby his credentials as
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary
of his Britannic Majesty at this Court, his Lordship
proceeded to the Palace in . the City, where the
whole Court was assembled for the purpose in the
customary form, and was received by his Imperial
Majesty with all the marks of attention and affability '
with which he always receives the representatives of
his august allies.
AUG. 23.—The Diario contains the Manifesto of
the Junta of Oporto, dated 28th May, 1828.
AUG. 25.--A circular of the Bishop of the Dio-
cese orders public prayers for rain, in consequence
of a request to that effect, addressed to him by the
Senate of Rio de Janeiro.
AuG 28.—The Diario contains the Proclamation
of the Junta of Oporto of the Ist of June.

A Jamaica mail arrived this morning, by which
Papers have been received at the North and
South American Coffee-house to Sept. 2 :

COLOMBIA—IMPORTANT.

SIMON BOLIVAR, Liberator.

Having positively understood that a considerable
force of Spanish troops are accumulating 'in the
Havannah, and having every reason to believe that
the destined object is Colombia, I have decreed--
Ist. That our Republican Army shall be increased
to forty thousand men, ten thousand for the district
of the South, ten thousand for the district of Mag-
dalena, ten thousand for the district of the North,
and ten thousand for the central district.

2d. In addition to this regular force, the
auxiliary militia shall be augmented, so that it may
be capable of forming another army as considerable,
if not superior, to that composed of the regular
troops.

3. It is recommended to the military authorities
to see to the due organization and discipline of the
army and militia, the equipment of artillery, the re-
pairs of the fleet, the provision, the ammunition for
our fortified places, said to attend to the defence of
the country.

4. The Decree of Congress, dated August 8,
limiting the standing army of the Republic to 9,980
men, is suspended.

(Signed) SIMON BOLIVAR, President.

By the arrival of his Majesty's ship Briton,

the Hon. Captain GORDON, at Portsmouth,
from Rio de Janeiro, we are at length put in
possession of the gratifying information that
peace had been finally concluded between the
Governments of Brazil and Buenos Ayres. The
terms of the treaty have not yet transpired. The
Briton is the bearer of them. The peace was
to be solemnly declared in the
capital on the 7th
ult. The exchange on London had risen in
consequence 8 per cent.; it was 32i 3 per mil-
rea, and was still looking up : one letter we have
seen quotes it 33 k. The Briton sailed on the
30th August, with 29,000 dollars in specie on
board. By shipping lists which she has brought
we perceive that the Redpole packet from Buenos

Ayres sailed from Rio on the 10th August, and
consequently some alarm exists for her safety.
The frigate touched at Bahia, to carry the pleas-
ing intelligence of peace to that province.

The Allgemeine Zeitung, to the 17th inst.,
does not contain any flintier intelligence from
the theatre of war. An article dated Odessa,
Sept. 30th, mentions that the Foreign Ministers
accredited to our Court, who are still here, have
received from Count NESSELRODE an invitation
to go to St. Petersburgh, whither his Majesty
the EMPEROR intends to return in the course of
next month. •

The Frankfort Papers to the 17th inst., re-
ceived this morning, state that the corps of Prince
SCHERBATOFF, which left Jassy on the 7th of
September, and was to go to Silistria, amounts to
36,000 men.

Government has this morning received intelli-
gence from Madeira, announcing the death of
Captain CANNING, R.N., eldest son of the late
Right Hon. GEORGE CANNING ; the gallant
Captain was drowned whilst bathing in a pond
in that island.

The following is an extract of a private letter
received at the North and South American
Coffee-house :

" RIO DE JANEIRO, AUG. 29.

" We announce to you the. conclusion of peace
between this Government. and Buenos Ayres, the
Banda Oriental to be independent. Two of the
Deputies go to Buenos Ayres in the Heron sloop-of-
war, on the Ist proximo. If on their arrival the
treaty is not ratified, an armistice will. take plaCe for
five years, to be. guaranteed by. Great
change 32.
" In addition to`these particulars, we have to state
that a communication to the Brazilian Embassy,
signed by the Emperor's own hand, hays been re-
received this morning, stating that,. on the 26th, he
had signed a Treaty of Peace with the Buenos Ayrien
Government.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY', TW ELV R axes.

Consols opened this morning at 86, sellers, but
became buyers, and were 861; the only varia-
tion which has since taken place is, that they are
now 86, rather buyers for account, and sellers for
money; the Commissioners were supplied at 86;
the transactions were limited. India Bonds 84. 5;.
Exchequer Bills, 74 5 pm.
The arrival of his Majesty's ship Briton from
Rio de Janeiro, as well as mails from Lisbon and
Jamaica, caused a very early attendance of the dealer's
at the Foreign House; the former vessel having
brought the long looked for account of peace be-
tween the Imperial and Republican Governments
operated strongly on the price of Brazilian and
Buenos Ayrean Bonds, the former reaching 65, and
the latter 501 ; she price of both these securities at
present may be quoted somewhat lower, Brazilian
being sellers at 65, and Buerios Ayres, 491. Portu-
guese Stock, 56i 7; Rossini Bonds, 90 1; banish,
601 1. The news-from Colombia is not satisfactory
to the Bondholders' prospects, for, notwithstanding
the continued promises of the Government, and their
desire to keep good faith with their Foreign credi-
tors, the fact of the increase of Ae regular army
from 9,980 to 40,000, with the addition of the
militia and auxiliaries being put into an effective state
to a still greater number, will be such a clog on the
Revenue of that distracted country as totally to pre-
vent the means of paying the unfortunate British
Bondholder his dividend; the price remains at 19.

TWO O'CLOCK.

Consols, after being fidgety at 86i for some time,
were done at 86k; they are now fairly 86i i for the

account.

The Foreign market remains steady at our former
quotations.

In Shares, in the early part of the morning, no
prices were given for the Imperial Brazilian Mining;
this speculation, by the lust accounts, had only
raised 25 lb. of gold in 18 days; the premium has
fallen, from this cause, to 45 7. National Brazilian
Shares, 51.

OLD BAILEY SESSIONS--(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.

Henry Punk, aged---I,was capitally indicted for
stealing a quantity of leather, value 111. the pro-
petty of Abel -Minikes, currier, in Orchard-street,
'estminster.

From the evidence of several witnesses it ap-
peared that the prosecutor had lost several quanti-
ties of leather which were not in a finished state,
and that the prisoner had been to another currier in
the neighbourhood to request him to finish it. Mr.
Halls, the person applied to for the purpose of
finishing the leather, having heard of the prosecu-
tor's loss, gave information to him, and the pri-
soner was shortly afterwards apprehended at his
lodgings, on searching which several other quanti-
ties of leather, also the property of the prosecutor,
were found.

The prisoner, in his defence, said he had pur-
chased the leather of a person he accidentally met in
the street.

Mr. Sergeant ARABIN told the Jury, as there was
no proof that the prisoner had stolen the leather at
one time, the capital part of the charge could not be
sustained.

The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty of stealing
!rider the value of 51.

Joseph A/4ov, aged 26, and John Morrie,
aged 22, were capitally indicted for borglariously
entering the dwelling-houee of Mr. Wm. Barton, a
builder, in St. Martin'i-lane, and stealing seven sil-
ver spoons and two silver forks, value 31., his pro-
perty.--Verdict, Guilty—Death.
