tained, that SILVEIRA, who brought. about the
Revolution at Ot)orto,, and: wlio was the
leader of the military coup-de-main at Lis-
bon, when he turned out at the point of the
bayonet some ofnthe members of the Government,
and proclaimed tl 'Constitution On the Spanish

Portugal is now divided into two parties, one is,
for incorporating their country with Spain-the
other is for proclaiming the young Duke of CA"

does not return to his European dominions, and to
which he was invited by the new Government-
If his Majesty declines coming-, then the Duke of
CADAVAL will certainly be proclaimed KING-
This, I am sorry to say,may produce a civil war, as
the Spanish party will no doubtdo all they can to
oppose it, for they say, 46 that Portugal left ts,
itself, will never be able to make a stand against
the Holy Alliance, whose illustrious members are'
determined to declare war against that Country,
in case the King will not_ return ; but if Portugal
is incorporat.l with Spain, and she is attacked
by the troops of ' the Holy Alliance,' there can
be no doubt but that the Cossacks and Croats of
Russia and Austria will meet the same fate as
BUONAPARTE'S invincible legions did."

The new Neapolitan Ambassador to our Gourd
Prince CIMITILI, arrived in town. last Monday,
and on Thursday he was introduced to Lord
CASTLEREAGH by Count LUDOLFF, the Neapoo
litan Ambassador, who is recalled, but appointed
to fill a similar post at Constantinople, where his
Excellency had resided sixteen years as the Re--
presentative of his Court, excepting the time
when the Throne of Naples was occupied bf
JOSEPH BUONAPAItTE and MURAT. Prince Ct.'
MITILI was only received by the Noble Lord as
a private Gentleman, and not as a public
Mi-
nister. To the honour of the Prince it must be
said that he was net employed by. MuRAT; in-
deed he was quite out of favour with the Napo-
leonic gang ! 1 do not think that he:will there-
fore be a favourite with our Whigs and Radi•

ARRIVAL OF BERGAMI AT BRANDENI3I.7IIag
HOUSE.—I have just been informed that the
celebrated Brrto.vnt is at present at Branden-
burgh House. It was stated in this Paper of
last Sunday, on the authority of a private letter
from Paris, which appeared • in the Morning,-
Chronicle, that BERGAMI had applied for post
horses to go to Calais. .1 have, since then, been
credibly informed, that for the last eight days he
was not to be found at Paris ; it was therefore
inferred there,lhat he had gone.to England; and
a Gentleman of respectability assured me last night,
that he is actually at 13randenbur,gh House.
Consequently he will also be presented with Ad-
dresses, and incense will likewise be offered him.
by the Canaille of these realms. The Paris-
Papers state, that BERGAMI is exhibited in the
Phantasmagorie at Mr. Co 3crE's heatre•-,--(

By the latest accounts from the West Indies,
the fever has been severely felt in Tobago, gar-
risoned by two companies of the 4th regiment,
who became so reduced by sickness, that early
i❑ September two companies of the 421st Fusi-
leers were sent to that island from Barbadoes.—
These last had no sooner arrived than they were
attacked by tl►e fever, which proved fatal to
Brevet-Major Cameron, Lieutenant Lindsay, and,
Assistant-Surgeon Colvin. The latter fell a vic-
tim to his professional exertions. Of the four re-
giments which sailed from Portsmouth •in 1819,
the King's Own has suffered the most, owing to
the unhealthiness of the islands that fell to their
station, viz. Grenada, Trinidad, and Tobag-o.
They are now about to be moved to Barbadoi.s,
which is extremely healthy, and to be replac*d
in the above three islands by the 214 t fusileers.
