LONDON,
THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 6, 1827.

Some of our cotemporaries sadly exhibit their
ignorance by stating that Mr. HERRIES and
Mr. CHARLES GRANT, who attended the meet-
ing of the Cabinet yesterday, for the first time,
" took their seats as Chancellor of the Exche-
quer and President of the Board of Trade."
We need hardly inform our readers, that those
Ministers do not sit in the Cabinet by virtue of
the posts they fill, but as members of the Privy
Council of their SOVEREIGN, who has been grate
ciously pleased to admit them into that com-
mittee of it which, under the denomination of
the Cabinet, forms the Government of the
country. The possession of office is not even a
necessary qualification for the Cabinet, as we•
have recently seen in the case of the Duke of
PORTLAND, who retained his seat in it after
he had resigned the Privy Seals.

The Paris Papers of Monday, and the Ga-
zette de France, dated Tuesday morning, reached
us last night. Their contents are unimportant.
The report which had been circulated, that an
Algerine corvette of 22 guns was cruising off'
Cape St. Vincent, appear. to have offended the
national vanity. The Gazette de France, ort
Monday, published a Second Edition, for the
purpose of giving a formal contradiction to the
report, and the other government papers copy-
the paragraph with great care.
The Journal des Debuts contains a private
letter from Lisbon, dated the 18th August, by
which it would appear that the PRINCESS RE-
GENT is, by degrees, dismissing from her Coun-
cils and from employment all the most zealous
friends of the Constitution. It is asserted that
General STI/ BB s, the active Governor of Oporto,
has been superseded ; that Count SANIPAYO
is to be replaced by the Baron
and the Colonels of the 7th and 19th regiments
deprived of their command, for having repre-
sented to her ROYAL HIGHNESS the services
rendered to the army by General SALDANHA.
The same letter states that another vessel had
reached the Tagus, from Rio Janeiro, and that
the PRINCESS had received, by that opportunity,
a letter from the EMPEROR, which hEd occa-
sioned much consternation amongst her Court.
The Morning
Papers
also mention that Farther
changes had taken place in the Spanish Cabinet,
but the Gazette de France states that its
letters from Madrid make no mention of the cir-
cumstance. It is, however, most probable that
these changes, if they have not already taken
place, speedily will, for as M. CALOMARDE'S
influence has prevailed, he will naturally fill every
post with creatures belonging to his own party,
and none but the advocates of the Inquisition,
and of absolute power, will be allowed to remain
in office.

The French Funds have advanced, notwith-
standing the sale of an immense quantity of
rentes, which it is asserted a great capitalist
has recently effected. Extracts of the Papers are
given in another column.
