LISBON PAPERS.

J ULY I7.—The Gazette contains a list of in-
dividuals, who are ordered to be discharged from the Por-
tuguet4 army, because they are subjects of his Catholic
Majesty.
JULY 20.—The Gazette contains the rescript of the
Princess Regent, dated 2bth March, accepting the resigns-
, tion of General J. Cot de Mello, who' had repeatedly
'solicited his discharge from the post of Governor of Tras-
!os-Montes.

GAVIAO, JULY 14.—A Lieutenant and three Ensigns,
'and a Bachelor of Laws, were arrested to-day in this town,
'because they were travelling without passports. Captain
Mor and the Judge of the town showed a laudable zeal in.
the execution of the orders received, which has not hitherto
been very common.
If all the authorities in Portugal had displayed the same
zeal, 'and the same attachment to the King and the Consti-
tutional Charter, which is happily our' supreme law, our
country would certainly have escaped many of the misfor-
tunes which it has suffered.

JULY 21.--The Gazette contains four columns of pro-
motions and changes in the army.
MELc..tco, JULY 6.—Yesterday evening the Aldeia of
`Calves was surrounded by a detachment of the 21st regi-
went of infantry, to take some guerillas who were sup-
posed to be there ; none were met with, and only a small
quantity of ammunition was found. While the detachment
was thus engaged, some of these wretches fired at the troops'
from a distance. These rebels left San Gregorio and went
to post themselves in Sampaioe Sante..
On the sth there arrived at Valenca above 36 Spanish
soldiers, who had fled from Tuy and Barone. This emi-
;ration daily continues, which grieves the Apostolicals. .
CHAVES, JULY 7.—The spirit that prevails in this pro-
vines is not yet good, and the Apostulical agents do not
-;cease to mislead the people, persuading them that the Con--
stitntional system is contrary to our holy religion. Many
preachers, either from ignorance_ or had motives, assist
these agents, by inspiring the people with seditious doe-
,trines. This unfortunate province will never be cured of
the spirit of vertigo till we have good parish priests and
!active magistrates.
ELY" Juts 17.-On the 14th and 15th, a proularna-
‘tion was published at Olivenca and Badajos, by order of
his Cittholie Majesty, for the Portuguese rebels, who were
there and on the frontiers; to be removed to the distance of
•at least six leagues into the interior. This measure throws
all the Apostolieals into confusion, and it makes the heart
bleed to see the affliction of these holy men, at finding the
'support of theii machinations fail them. However, we
must not be• too confident ; for these are not people to be
discouraged by trifles, and they will use every means to at-
tain their ends.

LISBON, JULY 21.—The experimental squadron, under
the command of Sir T. Hardy, arrived here on Thursday
morning. It is said they have sealed orders for their fur-
'tiler destination, and will, perhaps, sail early in the week.
!The English troops, are all moving towards the capital.—
.The arrival of Don Miguel is much spoken of as. an event
highly probable. The last packets from England hive had
very good passages. The Duke' of Kent arrived on the
13th in six days, and the Duke of Marlborough in five
:days, from Falmouth, and on the 20th the Stanmer,in
'six days.

REDUCTION IN THE ARMY.—:--The Hamp-
shire (Portsmouth) Telegraph, of Saturday last, contains
the following intelligence upon this subject The re-
!ductions in the Army, we are informed, from good au-
thority, will comprise the 2d Regt. of Life Guards ; the
6th and 7th Refits. of Dragoon Guards ; 16th and 17th
Light Dragoons (Lancers), three battalions of Foot Guards,
`'the second battalion of the Ist or Royals, the second
'battalion of the 60th Regt., the second battalion of the
Rifle corps, and the 97th, 98th, and 99th Regiments.”

FROM A CORRESPONDENT.—It is said to be
intended, amongst other plans of economy, to do away with
the Recruiting Establishment of the army ; and in order to
keep that force complete, to permit at certain periods, a
portion of the militia to extend their services to such regi-
ments of the line as may be in want of men : the men so
extending their services, to receive no bounty ; but a
guinea to be allowed to furnish such men with necessaries,
from the bounty which is at present given for men who
'now inlist into the army; and the remainder of that bounty
to be applied to the raising of men by beat of drum, by the
permanent staffs of militia, to supply the place of such
militia men who so inlist into the line.

HARVEST.—The Harvest in the north of
Staffordshire is now commencing ; and the crops are four
or five weeks earlier than the average season. The Barleyi
and Oats have greatly improved, and the general character
of the crops is that of abundauce.—Pottery Gazette.

The harvest has commenced in this neigbour-
hood, dnd several fields of wheat, oats, and barley, are cut.
igenerally the crops form rather a high average pro-
duce, and the Weather is- extremely favourable for gathering
them.--Leeds Mercury.
