indication of discontent, is natural enough. The fol
lowing are extracts:

LISBON, JULY 29. •
The vile instruments of the misfortunes of this tag-
' dem since the 24th of August, 1820, the Silvae, Car-
valhos, Licas, Mourn, and others, who, flying from
.
weir country, repaired to the Thames, not content
a;ith their past misdeeds, and as if there was nothing
in their hearts but eternal hatred to their follow-coon
trymen, do not cease to frame intrigues, and td hold
seditious language. They hope by these unworthy
means to hasten the 4nal ruin of Portugal, revive that
fatal system, that Constitution, contrived in the
Clubs of the Freemasons, and entirely democratical,,
which, tying the hands of the Sovereign, aimed at
placing all the powers of the State in the hands of a
demagogical and detestable faction. Falsehood, im-
posture, and seduction, were the pillars which sup-
ported this faction during the whole time of its do-
minion ; proceeding in the same course, those un-
worthy men write, in London, articles designed to de-
lude foreigners who have not the prudence to go
to the best sources for the present state of affairs in
Portugal. However, the folly, the contradiction,
and the confusion of their statements, can deceive but
very few.--(The Editor here quotes from the Morn-
ing Chronicle, of July IS, an article from Oporto of
that month commenting on the several paragraphs as
he proceeds). He calls it an article from the ma-
nufactory (Ojicine) of Moura and Co." and says, he
has good reason for believing that the article cCmes
from that source.

AUGUST I.—The ill-disposed lose no opportunity
of publishing news foolishly alarming; within these
few days they have circulated reports of disorders in
the city of Oporto, and of the eight of part of the 21st
Regiment of Infantry ! So it is that the evil-minded
misrepresent events. Of the fist Regiment two com-
panics went to Tui to proclaim his Majesty Ferdi-
nand VII. accompanied by several Spaniards (in

arms), who were in Valencia. There were great re-
joicings at Tui, the Constitution was burnt, with va-
linos emblems belonging to it, and an Officer and SO
soldiers of that Regiment remained in the town. This
is published in an Extraordinary Supplement to the
Correia do Porto of Tuesday, this week.
The Oporto Papers contain a list of six persons
who have been reprehended, and two ordered to
leave the city.
Anwar s.—The Gas:tette contains an Order of the
Day of Don Miguel, stating, that his Majesty hasl
commanded that some troops of the division of the,
Marquis of Chaves shall proceed to Beira and Tras-
os-Montes to relieve the corps of the 2d line in the
arduous duty they have to perform, and also to cover'
those two provinces against any insults of the Spanish
revolutionary Guerillas.

flrassels Papers to the 15th instant reached us this'
forenoon, but they contain no political intelligence of
the slightest importance.

Actbunts from Bahia of the 22d June state, that
the Council had •determined to evacuate the place on
the 29th of that month. A temporary supply of bul-
locks had reduced the price of beef, phich at one
time was 6s. per pound, to 2s. 6d. Public credit
was totally destroyed. Intelligence had been received
at Rio Janeiro, that Lima was again in possessidn of
the Royalists. •
It-appears by the Colombian Papers list received,
that some bneasiness was felt in that Republic as to
the issue of the war in Spain. gi Should the Spa-
niards triumph over France," says the Colombiano,
we shall have our deadly foe once more on us, and
the first use Spain will make of her liberty will be in
efforts to destroy ours. We speak here of the will of
Spain, her power we defy, and it is this well-grounded
contempt which makes her efforts so ridiculous and
impolitic. Should France, however, triumph, we
shall have more to contend with, as may be collected
from the diplomatic Notesdf M. de CHATEMIERIAND
to the Spanish Ministers, stating, that a modifica-
tion of the Spanish Constitution once admitted, the
fleets, armies, and resources ofhis Most Christian Ma.
jest, are at the disposal of Me King of Spain:—
The application of these resources may be inferred
from the Duke d'AugouLeus's Proclamation to the
Spaniards, in which he tells them, that he is. march-
ing into Spain with 100,000 men, to give liberty to
the King, and to enable him to settle Me ears of his
Colonies."
The President ,BOLIVAR has renewed td the Legis-
lators of Coldmbia liis former promise "to perish
sword in hand at the head of the Army of Colombia,
rather than permit iviolation of that solemn union,
which has given a nation to the world, composed of
Venezuela and New Granada."

By the Liberator, advice: from La Guayra to the
Sth of July have been received. An official account
had been published at Caraccas of the capture of
the city of Maracaibo by the Colombians on the 17th
'June; but as the Liberator was leaving the harbour of
La Guayra, further dispatches rewhed the port with
intelligence of their having again evacuated it. The
Spanish frigate Constitutien, which was at Puerto
Cabello, had lately captured two sloops of war from
the Colombian and gone to the Havanuah.
A certain journal announces, on the faith of private
letters from Augsburg, that the King of B4vAate has
' depirted .in great haste, for Wurtzburg, on account
of the. seveie illness of the Ps4tlce Royal, Mho is in the
latter city but the -Germnii, Neu .Ipake.no men.
