' Sestou Mnitoris The subjects of his Majevy
the King, my master, establislted in Lisbon, are so
alarmed by the extraordinary events of AA hich we ate
witnesses, that I have to request of your Excellency whe-
ther such a state of things is to be prolonged ? If it
does not cease, I hall have to ask cf your Excellency
passports for many families, who wid emba,k

LISBON, MAT £4.

The Gazette cantains a circular letter to the Generals
in the Provinces, informing them that all orders isaied
from the :30t11 April to filth May, during which time the
country was in a state of anarchy, and which were is-
sued by the intrusive Chief of the Staff, Lieutenant-
General Alanoel de Brito Mozinho,l are null and void.
--Dated 15th May.

Another circular to the Generals is as follows:

" The horrible consequences of a Om subversive of
the established Government of his Majesty and of the
public tranquillity being happily checked, and his Ma-
jesty having, by wise and vigorous measures, restored
the order which perverse or misled persons sought to
overthrow, his Majesty orders you to be informed, that
this happy event is by no means to cause any relaxa-
tion in the execution of all those measures of police, in-
structions, &c. hitherto given to prevent the absurd and
anti-monarchical principles established by the faction
of the 24th of August, 1820, from farther deluding any
of his subjects; on the contrary, the King recommends
to you the greatest vigour in the execution of the sa;,l
measures, and particularly to concur with the Magis.
mates of the Province, in order that the present events
may not serve as a pretext to the said faction to con-
ceive new hopes against the Royal power ; and his
Faithful Majesty not having spared any means to c.,:s
up by the roots the machinations of tile 30th of Apt il,
at the expense of the most painful sacrifices, has there-
fore given the most decisive proof that he never w•;11
permit any faction whatever to dare to disturb the
tranquillity of his subjects, or in any manner tta attack
the authority which I'nov►DENCE has given him, and
which his Majesty will always maintain, with the h: n:
ness and dignity suitable to the respect due to his Ito :3
rer3on and to the good of the people whom he governs,
