A GREAT POET!----Some time ago, when
Sir WArrrit Scorr was going to London by one of the
smacks, the porter who carried his Inggaze on board, w,:s

LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 31, 1829.

Mr. AQUOBANA, A King's Messenger, ar-
rived at the toreign Uttice this morning, with
despatches from Mr. GORDON, at Constanti-
nople, dated the 80th of June. At the time
these despatches were sent off, Mr. GORDON
had not had an interview with the SULTAN,
neither had the negociations commenced.

Despatches were also received from Mr.
DAWKINS, his Majesty's Resident in Greece,
dated July 3 ; and from Mr. MATTHEWS, at
Lisbon, dated July 19.

An Italian Messenger arrived at the Colonial-
office last night, with despatches from Malta,
dated 17th June; from Gibraltar, dated 9th
July ; and from Cadiz, dated 11th July.

Lisbon Gazettes to the 18th July, inclusive,

ave been received this morning.

The only

thing they contain is the dismissal of the Minister
of Police, and the appointment of his successor.

11l heath, as usual, when it is not convenient to
come to extremities, by telling the truth, is the
cause assigned for the retirement of the Mini-
ster, who, if he were a free agent, could
such a tale unfold of the enormities Perpetrated

during his official career, as would make even
Don INIIGLIEL's own hair stand on end. But
the secret history of the Portuguese horrors will
in time be developed. We only now guess at
the nature of the monster by his blood-stained
garments

OPORTO, JULY 6.

The Correo cr,n•.ains a resolution of the Tribunal for the
trial of twenty prisoners, of whom six are under arrest,
and fourteen have fled. Those who are at present here
have five days allowed them to prepare for their departure.
Of the fourteen who are absent, five were formerly Colo-
nels, three Lieutenant-Colonels, five Majors, and one
Captain.

Iu coowquence of the bad health of Jost Barata Freire
de Lima, li.tendaot-General of the Police of tha capital
and the kingdom, I think fit to relieve him from that
office. Jose de rsiattos Vasconcellos Barboza de Magal-
haes, Councillor of State, Minister Secretor' of State of
Ecclesiastical Affairs and Justice, will attend to this, and
have it carried into effect suit l the usual forms.

By the arrival of l►;s Majesty's packet Pigeon,
we have Patters from Rio Janeiio to the 24th
of June. They contain the addresses of the
Senate and (limber of Deputies to the EM-
PEROR, in answer to his speech on opening the
&ssion. The tone of the addresses is compli-
mentary to his MAJESTY for his wisdom
in not exposing the tranquillity and prospects of
Brazil, by hazarding a war with the Usurper of
his daughter's Throne. His IMPERIAL MA-
JESTY has thereby " found ;Deans to reconcile

the rights of a father Nvith the policy of the

SIR,—I have the satisfaction to inform you. that this
Government, paying due attention to the remonstrance
which I made respecting the insult offered to the Brazilian
flag by the English frigate the Tribune, orders have been
given to Lord Ponsonhy to communicate the resolution of
the English Government to the Government of his Impe-
rial Majesty.

London, Feb. 2G. Viscount de ITABAYANA.
To his Excellency the Marquis de Aracati.
(The Diario Fluminense gives the following note in
English and Portuguese.)
With reference to the note which the findersigned, his
Majesty's Principal Secretaty of State for Foreign Affairs,
had the honour to receive from the Vicomte d'ltabayana,
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from
the Emperor of Brazil, dated the 12th instant, complain-
ing of the conduct of the Commander of his Majesty's
ship Tribune, in having recaptured the English vessel
Nestor, while proceeding under convoy of a Brazilian frigate
from Monte Video'to Rio de Janeiro for final adjudication,
the undersigned has the honour to acquaint the Vicomte
d'ltabayana, that his Majesty's Government have taken the
case into their mature consideration, and have come to the
decision that the Brazilian Government have just ground
of complaint against the Commander of the Tribune.
Orders will consequently be issued fur the delivery of the
ship and cargo into the possession of the Brazilian Go-
vernment, to abide the event of the appeal to the superior
tribunal. His Majesty's Minister at Brazil will also be
instructed to represent to the Government of his Imperial
Majesty, that his Majesty's Government will be ready to
take upon themselves the responsibility of making good
any loss which may have been sustained in consequence of
the conduct of the Commander of the Tribune, which,
however, appears to have proceeded from error and mis-
representation, occasioned by the removal of the ship and
cargo pending the adjudication, without sufficient autho-
rity for that purpose, and not from any intention to insult
the Brazilian flag.
The undersigned Legs to renew to the Vicomte d'lta-
bayana the assurance of his high consideration.

MAY I have been pleased to order the cessation
of the effects of the decree of the 27th Feb. this year,
which suspended for a time in the province of Pernambuco,
the Constitutional forms which guarantee individual liberty.
(Signed by his Imperial Majesty.)
Palace of Rio de Janeiro, April 27, 1829.
MAY 16.—Ilis Majesty received the deputation of the
Chamber of Senators with the address in answer to his
speech on opening the Session.
In this atfdress the Senate, regretting the usurpation of
the Crown of Portugal, thanks his Majesty for not expos-
ing the tranquillity and prospects of Brazil, and for his
generously suppressing the sentiments of offended notional
affection in his heart, and to remain firm in the princi-
pie of not hazarding the tranquillity of the Empire in
the Portugese question.

His Majesty thanked the Senate for the Address, and im-
mediately afterwards received the deputation and address of
the Chamber of Deputies. The Chamber thanks his Majesty
for opening the sessions, expresses its satisfaction at the state
of the foreign relations of the empire, the friendship main-
tained with other powers, the commercial treaties with
Denmark and France, the peace with Buenos Ayres, and
the " wisdom with which his Imperial Majesty has fonnd
means to reconcile the rights of a father with the policy of
the monarchy, maintaining the rights of the reigning Queer.
of Portugal without hazarding the fate of Brazil." The
Chamber regrets the troubles in Pernambuco, which it
hopes will soon be terminated by his Maiei.ty's prudence
and justice; it will continue to pay attention to the regu-
lation of the Press, and the state of the finances, and the
organization of judicial power. Lastly, it hopes that a
good system of colonization will give new subjects and
additional strength to the Empire..

Cape Papers to the 29th May have been re-
ceived this morning. The project for laying
down oyster-beds in Table Bay had been aban-
doned for want of sufficient capital. One hun-

dred and eighty shares of the new College had
been subscribed for.

Private letters from Paris, of the 27th inst.,
state that it was reported, on the breaking up of
the Cabinet Council on the previous day, that a
change in the Ministry was about to take place.
M. de POLIGNAC is to be President, with
the title of Minister of the King's House-
hold ; M. HUMANAN to be Minister of
Finances ; M. de MARTIGNAC to be Minister
of Foreign Affairs ; and M. DEBELLEYAIE to
be Minister of the Interior. The other Minis-
ters to remain as before. So says the report—
and reports of changes have been lately as pre-
valent in Paris as among a certain party in Lon-
don. Whether the Parisian expectants speak
their wishes, like our necromancers at home, re-
mains to be seen.

The French Consul at Barcelona has trans-
mitted the following to the Chamber of Com-
merce, at Marseilles, dated July 14:—
" The Captain-General of the Kingdom of Valencia
has ordered to be put into commission, by his Majesty's
orders, a number of large cruizers to guard the coast
against smugglers. Several of these ships will cruize off
Cape Crews, and stop all vessels coming from the ports of
France and Italy; and they are to be sent to Valeneil, where
they will be searched. The eruizers have already stopped
several Spanish vessels which came from the port of
Marseilles."

By the Sesostris we have this clay received
Bombay Couriers to the 21st March inclusive,
being one month later than the arrivals of yes-
terday. They contain several " General
Orders and other matters of intelligence,

t which would not possess much interest

here. The Governor• General has published a
" Notice' at Calcutta, intimating his desire to
receive all suggestions from the public that may
tend to advance the general prosperity and hap-
piness of the British Empire in India.
Upon this praiseworthy and deeply important
act, the Bombay Courier justly remarks:—

" We offer no comment on this spontaneous

homage of rank and power to intelligence. It
is an extraordinary act of liberality worthy of
the enlightened Nobleman now at the head of
affairs, and will, we have no doubt, be attended
with solid advantage. In the multitude of coun-
cillors there is wisdom, saith the proverb."

NOTICE.
The Governor-General invites the communication of all
suggestions tending to promote any branch of national in-
dustry ; to improve the commercial intercourse by land
and water; to amend any defects in the existing establish-
ments; to encourage the diffusion of education and useful
knowledge ; and to advance the general prosperity and
happin.2ss of the British empire in India.
This invitation is addressed to all Native Gentlemen,
Laadhold, re, Merchants, and others, to all Europeans both
in and rut of the Service, including that useful and re-
spectable body of men, the Indigo Plamets, who,
their uninteri upted residence in th.eillofussil, have peculiar
opportunities of forming an opinion upon some of these
subjects.m
Comurrications to he addressed to the Private or Mili-
tary Secretary of the Governor. General.

According to accounts received at Paris, the
Coant Espagne has condemned to death twenty-
seven of the Nobles of Barcelona, and a great num-
ber of other respectable persons here, to be trans-
ported.

Consols, which left off yesterday at 88i for the
Account, opened this morning at 88i with a heavy
market, since which the market has rather improved,
and Cot;sols may be quoted at present at 881
with little business doing as yet. The letters from
Rio Janeiro have just been delivered, and bring the
Exchange at Rio on the 23d May at 25, and the
new loan has been contracted for at GO. They do
not mention any political information.
The Foreign Market remains quite idle at present,
and the prices are nominal a. per yesterday.
There is no alterat!on in Exchequer Bills, which
are 74 5.

TWO O'CLOCK.
The Como! Market has taken a turn since the
early part of the morning, when they were heavy
and done at 88H- for the Account, since which
they have improved to 88.1- with an apparently
firm market.

It was reported at the North and South American
Coffee-house, and credited, that accounts are in
town of the Government of France having arranged
with the Bank of Paris for the loan of 50 millions
of francs, 30 millions to be paid immediately, and
20 to be called for Ivhen wanted, at the rate of 3 per
cent. This is believed.

Extract of a private letter from Rio, May 22 :
" Since our last of the 24th ult. our market has
again been subject to very material fluctuations, the
Exchange on England having got up from 25 to 27
and went down again to 25 ; and it is the opinion
of many that we shall experience further fluctuation
as long as we have not a more fixed standard of our
currency. No doubt is entertained that the present
Sessions of the Chambers will give a favourable
turn to the finances. Lord Ponsonby and his lady
are going to leave in the Granges for England."

AWFUL EVENT.—Mr. PARKER of Thorpe
Latimore, a farmer much respected, while attending Slea-
ford market on Monday, was suddenly attacked by para-
lysis, and dropped in the market in a state of insensibility :
in this state he W. 15 carried into a grocer's abop, and when
onr communicant left, he was quite senseless.—Newark
Times.

At the Cape of Good Hope there has been
considerable improvement in the demand for ostrich fea-
thers; the more acceptable, owing to the very depressed
state in which the trade had been for a long time previ-
oos!y.—lt was in contemplation by an intelligent indivi-
dual to lay down oyster-beds in Table Bay, for the pur-
pose of supplying the colony with this article of luxury.
CAUTION AGAINST THE USE OF COPPER
vE„Ei,s.—Last week a fitmily in this county suffered ex-
cessively, and some are still in a dangerous state, from par-
taking of fruit which had been left with sugar, to dissolve
in a copper stew-pan the whole night. Fortunately they
did not eat much of it, or the consequences would have
been fatal.—Buch Cloroinek,
