that Royalist Guerillas shoot the Spanish
.officers who
attempt to craft Portugal ; the Memorial, says that Don
Miguel has been proclaimed at 13raganza and Miranda,
None of these accounts are true. in general, there is
great reason to diatrust all these letters from the frontiers,
which are filled with unauthenticated facts, and we must
recollect, that during the Spanish war, they constantly
propagated the moat absurd reports, and the most ill-

Founded statements.
The English General Stubbs, in the Portuguese ser-
vice, is appointed Governor of Oporto. Since the arrival ,
of the new Minister of War, the Officers who were erased
from the list are again employed. In the War Depart-
ment, and that of 'Foreign Affairs, an activity prevails
which was never before known in Portugal.

LISBON, Auu. B.—The brilliant fetes which, fora num.;
ber of days, have signalized our recent political regenera-
tion are now over. It is worthy of remark, that those
high solemnities, which have occupied our populace, have
been unaccompanied by the slightest disturbance, precisely
because the people have been left to themselves, and no
appearance of force has been any where displayed.
The Austrian Minister, among the diplomatic agents,
has appeared most embarrassed under present circum-
stances ; M. Borel, Baron of Palencia, Charge d'Affaires
of Russia, a man of talent, has displayed more tact.
Europe must now see the absurdity of the hypothesis with
which certain Ministerial French Journals have been lately
amusing the public on the subject of the pretended analogy
of feeling between Mr. Calming and M. de Metternich ;
in fact, constitutional liberty is proclaimed in Portugal,
whilst the influence of the Austrian Prime Minister does
not cease to display itself at Turin, at Milan, at Rome,
and at Naples,
.by proscriptions, imprisonments, and pii-
nishment.
The news from the provinces is satisfactory. The petty
military tumults which were manifested on our northern
frontier, have never given us any serious uneasiness. Tran-
quillity is springing up in that quarter again, as well as in
other parts of the kingdom. The voluntary departure of
a few turbulent officers, is even looked on as an interposi-
tion of Providence; they will carry to a distance their
foolish hopes and guilty projects. The Constitutional
system is deeply rooted in 'Portugal, and its complete com;
solidation will speedily enable it to set at defiance internal
storms and foreign intrigues.
The Queen has refused to take the oath to the Const
tution.—Her Majesty will not even hear of it.

PARIS, AUG. 20.—The Minister for Foreign Affairs
sent off yesterday evening, a Courier, with despatches for
Madrid and Lisbon.

LISBON, AUG. ti.—An amnesty has been published in
favour of the mutinous non-commissioned officers and sol-
diers, who have returned, or shall return before the expiry of
three days. Those who are taken after that period, in arms,
will be shot. Unfortunately, this amnesty can be profit-
able to those soldiers only, who have surrendered them-
selves,. for the rest, they are already in Spain; and,
though we are sure a great number of them are at heart
disposed to profit by the amnesty, we are also sure that
they will not be allowed to leave Spain.
The new Minister of War, M. de Daun, arrived here
yesterday, by a steam-vessel, which plies between Lisbon
and Oporto. M. de Daun's conduct in the last named
city, of which he was Governor, has made him very po-
pular. He has been treated with marked distinction, on
his arrival in the capital.
The superintendanee of ecclesiastical affairs and of jus-
tice, is entrusted, ad interim, to M. de Sousa Barrudis,
until the arrival of the titulary, M. de Millo Breyner, at
present Minister Plenipotentiary for Portugal at Paris.
A great number of copici of the Constitution have been
printed at Oporto, on satin. The enthuSiasin of that city
in favour of the Constitution, is beyond description.
We am now aware of the cause of the Regency's delay
in publishing the Constitution. It appears that the mem-
bers composing it, as also those of the Ministry, were di-
vided into two parties, onstol which desired the publica-
tion, while the other inclined to a postponement, and
That it was the Duke de Cadaval who decided the im-
portant question.
They say that this Minister, who is nearly related to
the Royal Family, wrote to the Regency, intimating in
the name of Don Pedro, that he should hold them res-
ponsible for the tumults that might arise from the non.
execution of his Majesty's commands; and that he should
transmit, by the next vessel sailing for Brazil, a report to
the Emperor of the occurrences at. Lisbon,. in order that
his Majesty~. might take such measures as he should think
proper. It iat generally believed that, without the deci-
ded conduct of the Duke-de Cadaval, Sir Charles Stuart
himself would not have succeeded in the publication of
:he Constitution.
The English squadron, now in the Tagus, consists of
three ships of the line and three brigs, Independent of
the marines that belong to them, and which are at their
full complement, they have on board 1,300 infantry and
two troops of artillery. The Diamond frigate, in which
Sir Charles Stuart came over, is also in the river, but is
not attached to the squadron:
