REVOLUTION IN PORTUGAL.—What has . hi-
therto passed in• Portugal has been merely-. in
imitation of the proceedings in Spain and Naples,
and; like those, has 'been- done with many pro-
fession.; of trait; which -maybe, obsery-
ed to •characterize all the RevolutionS effected by
military interferenee.. The political contrivers
of them knovi, that armies are not 'to be suddenly
led into open, renunciations of their allegiance;
the Authority of the SciVerd;7ll is therefore alway
trated • with professed respect---Lat tirs't even in
the. m&vernents which -violate it. Ifr. however,
we regret this event in Porta:gal (prdduced
it: • has evidently been by the weakness and
misconduct• ol= the Regency), it is not, so much
from any • regard' to the. interior politics of
country. which Certainly wirer ha§ been It ell ge-
.verned, as from 'a consul ration for the, direct_ in-
• terestS 'of . • &land ''whiCh IllEiVn ir .. teriall.uffer
in the event of the harbours ,of rorturral falling
'under any dominion not -friendly to this. Country.
On this, indeed; as on several other affairs of fo-,
reign politics; We may say, that there, is scarcely
leisure :for kilariti rtinecting theta; for, un-
happily the efforts of tili,atfection at home are
suftzrietit to engage all the attention of even
.the • most profoundly political among
,us. What
:welive chiefly to 'regret .on this occasion, is
tho-advantai.e Whkh. is taken of it by the'Whig
Writers. to -aid- the. cause ofAlre.P.adi cal Revolu-
tionists in this country,:in,a way .sO basely
dithis and•mischievons as to prove that there is no
real principle atriong any class of the factions who.
now opirose thetrigelves to•the Govermnent, and
that they are alike willing to risk the public'
safety; in the prosecution of their Own interested
objects and -infamons views._ In vain, however,'
will =their diabolical insinuations be urged in
ference to- this country. The state 'of foreign
rations can have nojust application to us. Eng-
land, dear old. England, is reviled and abuSed
by none but her own execrable', and u4worth,-

proclaimed—the public grieyances not indeed mi.-.

fidelity' to the Catholic religion and to the Royal

tugal was: degraded into a province—a province
dependent on its own colonies ; and that chaitge,
so mortifying, was not effe,cted gradually, so as
to admit. of a silent and smooth transition from
a highlto an inferior station ; but it was executed
in the twinkling of an eye, by a. plunge which
jarred upon the senses, and shocked every feel-
ing of pride'and interest, of which no nation are
more susteptible than the Portuguese themselves.

THE REVOLUTIOS iv Moaocco; mentioned in
several Papers of yesterday, is an old story that
reached this Country more than two months ago,
. but titan imperfect manner. The partienlars are
:.,krabS fell dissatisfied at the
high rates assessed upon them by the Emperor,
and.resolNed not to pay them. Compulsion being
ordered, they .rose up in open revolt, expelled
the collectors and troops from among them, and
actually marched against the Emperor in two
divisions, _One took the city of Dar el Said and
several other places, whiCh they. plundered,
whilst another attacked Tetuati, under a hope of
falling on. the property of the Jews,/ but they
were repulsed through the exertions of the' Lia-
shal,v. The Emperor ordered "his. Guards,
amoUnting.to l 0,000 men, to march agtantitt. thesn,
but they refusing, he felt hirn*f compelled-for
the moment -to leave his capital.. lie subse-
quimtly collected 'an army of 60,000 men, and
the Arabs, learning his advance with so powerful
a force, returned to' their homes. The two last
at rivals from that quarter state the Emperor' to
have been'in the capita!, and every thing tran-
quil and-quiet in Morocco.-
The Madrid Papers contain a continuation of
the inventory of property belonging to the In-
quisition, offered for public sale on account of the
Treasury, in order to be applied to
tiois of the public debt. The enumeration of pro-
perty held by the late tribunal in Madrid, has
been followed by its possessions in the Provinces.
A list of what is called the secularized estates,' or
such ecclesiastical livings as have been placed in
the hands of the Government for administration,
also goes on. it is expected these two branches
will yield a considerable sum to the State.--
