DON PEDRO AND DON MIGUEL.—It is
pretty generally believed that the Emperor in-
tends to make a voyage to Lisbon, in the course
of the summer. The Rio Janeiro, a ship of
the line, is certainly fitting out at the capital of
the Brazils, for a voyage of six months ; and the
supposition is, that the Emperor is to proceed
in her to this country. The reasoning of the
two parties on this intelligence is as different as
their wishes. The Apostolical party say—
What motive can the Emperor have in coming
to Lisbon, or on what grounds can he interfere
in the affairs of Portugal ? By a fundamental
law of the kingdom, no foreign Prince can exer-
cise any right of sovereignty here. Don Pedro
has abandoned the place of his birth ; he is na-
turalised in the Brazils ; he has made his choice ;
and as by the late compact the two countries
are for ever to remain separate, he cannot have
any right to dictate to Portugal, much less to
exercise Sovereign power within the kingdom.
If he has no legal power, consequently he can
communicate none to his daughter, and Portu-
gal must descend to the next of kin (Don Miguel)
the second son of the Prince who reigned over
both states." The other party argue that Don
Pedro is not a foreigner, and has never
abandoned his claim to Portugal. They
admit that the two states must remain separate,
and that each must be governed by its peculiar
laws and customs, but still they contend that he
may reign over both, or resign one of them to
his daughter. If he comes to Portugal, the most
beneficial results might be expected. His pre-
sence and advice would conciliate the minds of
many. His well-known decision would deter
the rebellious, and many might entertain hopes
of seeing tranquillity restored—the two States,
perhaps, governed by the same Sovereign, and
those ties of amity and relationship renewed,
which had existed so long between the two
countries. The Emperor has all along acted
with great caution as to any abdication of sove-
reign power in Portugal ; and so far from ad-
mitting that his brother has any legitimate claims
to the Crown, he has distinctly stipulated in the
marriage contract that Don Miguel shall not
take the title of King till the Princess has borne
him a child. She has only completed her
eighth year ; and eight years more, at least, must
elapse before she or her husband can have any
authority in Portugal ; and why should not the
Emperor, in the mean time, be allowed to exer-
cise his undoubted right till that period arrives ?
The other party made no objection to his claims
from the beginning—in fact, admitted them all
along, till a charter was granted ; and with what
consistency can they now assert that he has no
right to interfere ? The Brazilians might ob-
ject to him exercising Sovereign power over both
countries, but the Portuguese cannot, inasmuch
as Portuguese Princes have, at different times,
ruled over this country and part of Spain. Such
is a short outline of the arguments of both parties.
Which are the more conclusive it is difficult
to say.

Before the business of the day was gone into, a
subscription was made to defray the expences. The
CHAIRMAN then informed the meeting that he had
communicated to Messrs. Hullett, Brothers, the con-
tractors, and to the Chilian Envoy, the resolutions
entered into at the last meeting, requesting their at-
tendance. He had received three letters, two from
the contractors, and one from the Envoy, which he
then read. That from the Envoy represented, that
in the position in which he then stood, he did not
consider himself warranted in attending the meet-
inc. He expressed his willingness to convey to the
Chilian Government any communication which the
bondholders might think proper to make. He had
received no intelligence to communicate to them, but
he hoped shortly to be in possession of good news.
The first letter from Messrs. Hullett stated that
they considered it best befitted their situation in
reference to the loan, and would render their
exertions more effective afterwards, if they avoided
any interference in the discussions of the bondholders.
They never had any direct communication with the
Government of Chili, but only with their Envoy
for the time being. They had, through that me-
dium, on every occasion, endeavoured to impress
upon the Government the necessity of providing
funds to make the payments of the dividends punc-
tually. There were now no funds whatever in their
possession applicable to the payment of the divi-
dends. They had, before they entered into the
loan, made inquiries into the financial capabilities of
Chili to complete the contract, and all their subse-
quent inquiries had confirmed their first information
that the means were most ample. They were ready
to second all the efforts of the bondholders. The
second letter from the contractors enclosed a docu-
ment, transmitted to them by the Envoy, which he
stated be believed to be authentic, certifying that
certain branches of the public revenue had, on the
7th of October last, been placed in the hands of
Commissioners, the produce to be appropriated ex-
clusively to the discharge of the Government en-
gagemert upon the loan.
The CHAIRMAN read the prospectus on which the
loan was made, and commented on the breach of
faith which had been committed by the Chilian Go-
vernment. He declared his conviction that it pos-
sessed the means, if it possessed the inclination or
the ability to make use of them, for the full dis-
charge of its financial engagements. He was will-
ing to consider that the conduct of the contractors
was candid, and that the attendance of the Chilian
Envoy could not be fairly expected.
Mr. YOUNG was by no means desirous of casting
any imputations on the contractors, but he consi-
dered that they were bound to attend, and act with
the shareholders for their protection.
Mr. HAMMOND, the solicitor, proposed a series of
resolutions, as expressive of the opinion of the meet-
ing on the breach of faith which had been commit-
ted by the Chilian Government. A long discussion
arose on the terms of these resolutions, in which
Mr. Wm. Clark, Mr. Young, the banker, and Mr.
Easthope, the member for St. Alban's, took the
most prominent parts. It was ultimately agreed,
that the terms of the contract entered into by the
Chilian Government should be recited, in the reso-
lutions, from the bonds; that these resolutions,
which further called upon that Government to repair
the breach of faith, should be forthwith transmitted
to Chili, through the medium of the Envoy ; and
that they should be transmitted to his Majesty's
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and the in-
terference of Government on behalf of the bond-
holders requested. Considerable doubts were ex-
pressed, whether, after the caution which was some
years ago given by the Government against such
loans to the rising states of South America, such
interference for their protection ought to be expected.
The CHAIRMAN contended, that as Mr. Canning
had prided himself on the recognition of the new
Anietscan States, the means 'by which that inde-
pendence had been achieved, namely, the money of
those present, (hear, hear l) must be considered as
legally expended, and their rights deserying all the
protection which the Government could give.—
(Cheers.)

It was resolved that the resolutions should be
transmitted to the Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs by the Chairman, and his serious attention
to them requested.
A committee was formed to watch the interests
of the shareholders. Thanks were voted to Mr.
Hammond and to the Chairman, when the meeting
separated.
