BARCELONA, DEC. I.—The King was to have arrived
here to-morrow, but certain preparations for his reception
not being yet finished, have caused his departure from
Tarragona to be delayed, and the arrival of the Court is
now officially announced for the 4th.
Count St. Priest, who, it was thought, was still at Bar-
celona, suddenly arrived here from Tarragona, on the
morning of the 29th, and a few hours afterwards his Excel-
lency took post horses to proceed to France. It appears
that this Ambassador will not return to Spain till the Court
I shall have returned to Madrid. .

A report has been circulated, that the Apostolicals being
somewhat
directbaffled in their

Catalonia, in
which they endeavour, it is said, to seduce. The report is
rendered in some degree probable by the manner in which
the troops in the garrison have been distributed ; for the
Citadel, Fort Mont Juy, and all the important posts, have
been occupied by the Royal Guard, while the troops of the
line have only those posts in the interior, or externally,
which are but of secondary importance.
The General-in-Chief, Count d'Espagne, resides himself
in the Citadel, in order to hare it ;pore in his power con-
stantly to watch over what is passing in Barcelona.
Yesterday the rear guard of the division destined for the
garrison entered. It conducted hither more than a hun-
dred persons taken from the prisons of Manreza and irieh,
ap of Own have been implicated in the rebellion at Bar-
celona. They were marched immediately to the Citadel,
there to be 'maned.

Private letters were yesterday received in town
from Mrs. STRATFORD CANNING, dated at
Corfu, which mentioned that she daily expected
Mr. CANNING to arrive there.

His Majestys packet-brig Frolic has arrived
with a Brazil mail. She sailed from Pernam-
buco on the 25th September, from Bahia, on the
Ist October, and from Rio de Janeiro on the 23d.
By this opportunity we have received Brazil
w the above date, from which we extract
tPhaepe following,
relative to a motion in the Cham-
ber of Deputies respecting the celibacy 'of the
Clergy :---
RIO DE JANEIRO.

In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, 01/ the 10th
ocfom cr
nt Ober,tte !ffeenredFgo,
aeiseparate vote on a motion of Senior
a member of the Ecclesiastical
Ferreira Franqa, and requested that be might be excused

from reading it ; that it might be printed. This request
not being granted, be proceeded to read a very long paper,
in which he began by observing, that it is necessary, first
to develope some principles which, though known to many,
are yet unknown to a great majority. He therefore pro-
posed to show :
l.—That it is competent to the temporal power to-
decree impediments to marriages—to dispense with them—
and to revoke them.

2.—The origin and progress of the celibacy of the
Clergy.
S.—The results of the prohibition of the marriage of
the Priests, (Padres.)
4.—The right and the duty of the General Assembly of
Brazil to abolish the prohibition.
Having traced at great length the history of the origin
and progress of the celibacy of the Clergy, and the fatal
effects on the morals of that important class ; and having
expressed a hope that the Pope, who daily dispenses even
with the most important of the canonical laws in favour of
individuals, will not refuse to confer a general benefit on the
faithful, and on the Church itself, when a whole nation
petitions him to do so ; the honourable member proposed :

I.—That the Government be authorized, to obtain from
his ?fellness the revocation of the spiritual penalties im-
posed on the Clergy in case of their marrying, explaining
to his Holiness at the same time the necessity of doing so,
since the Assembly cannot avoid revoking the law of
celibacy.
2.—That the Government shall appoint to our plenipo-
tentiary a certain time, and not longer than is sufficient, in
which the acceptance of the petition must be definitively
received from the Holy See.
3.—That in case the Holy See should refuse to accede
to this petition, our Plenipotentiary shall declare to his
Holiness moat clearly and positively, that the General As-
sembly will not abolish the law of celibacy—(a Assembles
Geral nao derrogara a Lei do delibato)—but will suspend
the Benephasito to all laws concerning ecclesiastical discip-
line, which shall be contrary to its decrees; and that the
Goirernment will maintain the public tranquillity and or-
der by all the means in its power. After a debate, in which
the printing of this vote was opposed by the Archbishop
of Bahia, it was resolved by the Chamber that it should
be printed without delay.
(The Rio Papers to the 29th October contain nothing
of any importance respecting the war with Buenos Ayres.)

The Sandwich packet has arrived with the
Lisbon mail of the 2d inst. By this opportu-
nity, we have received Lisbon Gazettes to the
Ist inst. inclusive, which contain nothing worth
copying except the following Extract of a Despatch
from Madrid :

COPT OF TIIE, THIRD SECTION OF A DESPATCH FROM
JOSE GUILHIMIE LIMA, DATED MADRID, NOV. 23, 1827.

In the conference which I had to-day with D. Manoel
Salmon, that Minister repeated to me, that I might give
the assurance to my Government, that the Government of
his Catholic Majesty was resolved to act with the greatest
energy, that the tranquillity of Portugal might not be dis-
turbed by the emigrants who are in this kingdom ; that it
had recently sent to the Captain-General a recapitulation of
all the orders of his Catholic Majesty relative to this subject,
for the strict observance of them ; and that orders had been
given to make public in the depiits the departure of his
Serene highness Don Miguel for Portugal, and the inten-
tions by which he is actuated, in order to prevent them
from being any longer deluded by their Chiefs.
The Lisbon Gazette to the Ist of December inclusive,
contains no further news, being filled with aecouuts of the
battle of Navarin, and other extracts from the English and
French journals.

We have received this forenoon the Alige-
meine Zeitung of the fith instant, which con-
tains no news. The. following is an extract :

VIENNA, NOV. 30.

His Royal Highness Don Miguel returned three days ago
from Maria Zell, and the Austrian Ambassador of the
Court of Lisbon, Count Bruchelles, having already set oat,
he will in a few days leave Vienna to proceed by Paris and
London to Lisbon. His Royal Highness honoured with
his presence the several fetes given in his honour, and 4g-
4dared he should always think with pleasure en his resi-
dence in this capital.

Shares, 1030.

Extract of a letter from the Agent to LLOYD'S,
at Smyrna, dated Nov. 5 :

" Advices of the affair of Navarin reached us on the
27th ult., and during the past week the British and French
houses have placed as much of the valuable property in their
warehouses as they possibly could, on board the merchant
vessels in port, for safety. The Pacha maintains excellent
order by a powerful and strict Police, and has promised to
give ample time for embarking all persons and property,
even should war be declared. The pressure of a large naval
force within pistol shot of our houses, puts the safety
of the vessels in the Bay beyond doubt, and the Ame-
ricans, Imperials, and Dutch, would assist with their
boats and marines to preserve order and carry off Euro-
peans. The French have two frigates and three or four
small vessels in port, under Admiral de Rigny. The
Cambrian, Dryad, Raleigh, Gannet, and Camelion, are
here. The Parthian sailed last night, and the Rose, after
watering at Volo, proceeds to Malta. In case of departure
we shall he amply protected by convoy ships. His Ma-
jesty's ship Zebra having sailed with the Comet and Eli-
zabeth for Constantinople, and being aware of the action
of Navarin, will probably have prevented British vessels
from going up for the present. The Greeks have landed
at Scio, and Lord Cochrane is bombarding the fort."

THB WEATRE.R.—Since the frost passed
away, the weather in this quarter has been at once variable
and highly uncomfortable. Within a very few days, the
thermometer ranged from 23 to 52—a thing almost un-
known even in our fickle cliinate. More recently, our even-
ings have been as stormy as our mornings are raw, thick,
and foggy, and altogether, we are experiencing to the full,
what our ancestors called the dreary days of December.
Friday last was truly a frightful night. The rain descend-
ed in 'torrents, and the wind blew with such fury, that
in detached situations were apprehensive that
personstliei d'o living'ei gs would be tumbled about their ears. The

and win not stand so long as the Pyramids of Egypt if its

Watchman, from New Orleans, and. Aurora, Stanley,
from New York. The Oscar and Charles, with
several others, names uuknown, have returned into
the Downs through the gales. The Tryphena, of
Dartmouth, got on the North Sand Head last night
or !arty this morning, while blowing hard from the
southward, and is wrecked ; part of the cargo, con-
sisting of brandy, and one man, have been saved.
The Vrow Maria upset the pauls of the windlass,
and part of her cable ; and the Watchman parted
with her cable during the gale, and both were sup-
plied with others.

the Frolic, from the Brazils, in 41 days, overshot
her port, and will forward her mail this evening.
PORTSMOUTH, • DEC. 11.--Wind S.W.--The
whole of the outward-bound sailed this morning,
with wind at E., except the General Harcourt, and
Elizabeth and Louisa. TIN afternoon the whole
returned to the Motherbank, the wind having shifted.

The Tryphena, Tollett, from Rochdale to London,
was wrecked on the Goodwin Sand yesterday
morning; only one of the crew saved.
Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's, at
Constantinople, dated Nov. 10 :—" The supposition
that I had formed of vessels being warned against
entering the Dardanelles by some man of war, is
confirmed by advices of the Zebra brig being there
for that purpose. A few vessels that received their
firman and visit, previous to the imposition of the
embargo,have been allowed to proceed both upwards
and downwards; the former empty ships have been
allowed to go through, whirst the latter, being loaded
with wheat, may yet be detained on arrival at the
Dardanelles. We imagine that the embargo has only
been put on to enable the Porte to supply itself with
wheat, if matters should not be satisfactorily arranged.
Great apprehensions are entertained that a rupture
between the Porte and the Powers, who are parties
to the Treaty, must take place; and were it not for
the embargo, great numbers would immediately
embark themselves and property. Travelling
tighans, or personal passports, are refused, and it
is even difficult to obtain them for the person accom-
panying the regular post, A Greek force has
landed at Scio, and is occupied in bombarding the
town.

THE FUND3-(THIS DAY).

CITY, TwiLrß o'CL•as.

No further intelligence from Constantinople, rela-
tive to the departure of the Ambassadors or other-
wise, has this morning arrived; the rumour which
was circulated at a late hour yesterday, that infor-
mation had arrived of their being at Constantinople
on the 18th, has net been verified, indeed what we
have in the French Papers appears to be tb6 only
intelligence on the subject in London. The Brazil
packet has arrived, and brings letters from Rio
Janeiro dated Oct. 25 ; they state that no prospects
of a peace are entertained ; the Exchange was 33d.
A large amount in gold for the Brazilian Mining and
another Company has arrived in this packet, the
value h variously stated, one account gives it al
25,0001., and another as 40,0001. The English
money market is, in rather a tranquil state after the
storm of yesterday afternoon. Consols for the ac-
count opened at 831, turned buyers, and imme-
diately afterwards sellers, which is the present quo-
tation. Several of the Bears yesterday bought in
their accounts, which assisted the market in its rise.
The rumour respecting the Ambassadors remaining
on the 18th had some effect in advancing it, but,
originating as it did, by a gentleman who has been a
very large operator lately, induced many individuals
to look at it in a suspicious manner. Exchequer

The accounts received by the mail from Rio de

neral feeling existed, that this event would most likely
take place. The exchange remained 33i 4. Coffee
had also been on the rise. Brazilian Mining Shares
have been 88 premium, but are now 78. The packet
brings 24,0001. in gold for this concern, which, it is
stated, is going on most prosperously.

IN THE MATTER OF THE REV. MRS. HOLMES. ,

self. It stated that Mr. White, the solicitor of Mrs. Ste;
