LISBON, JUNE 21.
"DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE.

" Considering the represeutatit.ns made to me by the
Merchants of the Port of Lisbon, and the motives hav-
ing ceased which I had in view in the Postai is of 6th
February, 1812, by which goods from Asia, imported
i i Pottuguese vessels, were not allowed the advantage
of being transferred into other vessels, I am pleased to
revoke the said Postaria, and to order that the said
goods of Asia, imported in Portuguese ships, ,hall enjoy
the- advantage of being transferred to other vessels.
beneficio de Baldeacao. The Council of Finance will
attend ,o th s order, and cause it to be executed.
" Palace of Bentpotta, May Stb, 1824."
(Signed by the King).

Taking into my Royal consideration the necessity
of providing for the exigencies and means of doing so,
and on the other hand, having above all things in view
w promote the good of my faithful subjects and the

V

commerce and manufactures op these itingdomstil
pjeascd toArder as 011ows;
1. Danitged goo4s shfkii• be, sciisi;by auction in

owner may bid, as well as any other person.
2. Coloured ioods, of Asiatic manufacture, imported
from foreign ports in Asia, and not entered in the Cus-
tom-houses of Diu, Goa, or Damao, shall pay a duty of
20 per cent. if woven, 22 if dyed, and 40 per cent. if
printed.
3. The goods which for many years past were valued'
in the general tariff at prices which, in the course of
time, have become inferior to the value of the goods,
and were afterwards valued according to the fifth
clause of the said general tariff, confirmed by my Royal
Decree Of the 14th of February, 1782, shall be charged
according to the last values declared, conformably to
the annexed table, signed by the Conde da Povoa, Mi-
nister of Finance.
4, The trans-shipment (6aldeacaoes)made in any port
of these kingdoms of hats of Braga for Lisbon, whether,
for use in the kingdom, or for exportation from this
port to some other in the Colonies, or in a foreign coun-
try, shall be allowed without any payment of duties.
5. The table which regulates the trobalphos braraes
of the India Company, made by the Committee of
Tariffs, shall subsist; and no seals cast in any Custom-
house shall be used, but they shall be all according to
the form long since used at the India House, which shall
be general for all the Custom-houses which have seals.
6. The importation of sweet oil of olives, of rape oil,
or that of any other fruit which may be used instead of
olive oil, which abounds in these kingdoms, is prohi-
bited both by sea and land.; in like manner, is prohi-
bited the importation of live hogs. •
7. Spanish wool may enter as hitherto, and pass
through these kingdoms directly to the Custom-houses'
of Lisbon and Oiorto, there be deposited, paying only,
as transit and export duty, ten rees per arratel, with a
deduction of five per cent. for tare. Portuguese wool-
is free for exportation without payment of duties.
8. Woollen quilts and blankets manufactured in
Spain, may be imported into these kingdoms, and shall
pay 126 tees per arratel.
9. The securities svhich have long since been re-
lquired for goods valued at inferior prices, for the re-
ceipt of the overplus, when a new valuation should be
made, and other securities hitherto demanded, in cer-
tain doubtful cases, are adopted for the future, and
those which have been given are null; and in the regu-
lation and general tariff, the duties which each kind of
goods is to pay, shall be fixed without any delay.
Jorre 25.—His Majesty, by a Decree, has established
the Bank of Lisbon for thirty years.
Jtraz 28.—The King orders that the proceedings in-
stituted against persons for their political opinions, shall
be accelerated as much as possible, that all those who
are entitled to the benefits of the amnesty may not be
kept in suspense, but may enjoy it without delay.
We have received the French Papers of Friday,' with
the Etoik of Saturday.—The discussion of the Budget
for 1825 was closed on Thursday last, in the Chamber
of Deputies; and on Friday, the Reporter, M. de Fru-
NILLY, answered all the arguments which had been
used against the law, and persisted in proposing its
adoption. In the course of the debate, an Ultra orator,
M. FERDINAND Bummers, charged the French Admi-
nistration with acting under the influence of our Go-
vernment. He wished, he said, " to see France less
subject to the policy of a Power which is her eternal
rival," and recommended a more strict conformity to
the principles of the Holy Alliance.
After complaining that the monarchical principle had
not sufficiently triumphed in Spain and Portugal, he
proceeded to make a series of insinuations respecting
the designs of the British Cabinet on Spain and Portu-
gal; among the rest, that it is wished to employ the
credit of France to impose our institutions on Spain;
and that endeavours are made to induce the French
Cabinet to favour the delusion of a grand league
of the European Constitutional Governments, including
Spain, which is to be brought into that class, and the
Revolutionary Governments of America, against the
Monarchical Governments and the Holy Alliance. Ab-
surd as this speech was, it was much applauded.
The Quotidian's has published a letter, addressed by the Arch-.
bishop of Tour-miss to oae of his colleagues, who had applied to
/gm to know whether he bad received a Circular from the Minister
of the Interior, requiring from the superiors and professors of semi-
naries their adhesion to the declaration of the Clergy of France in
1682? The Archbishop replies, that he bad received the Minister's
letter twice over, but had returned no answer; and states his
objections to the declaration, the principal of which are,
that the civil power has no right to lay down to Bishops
what they should prescribe with regard to instruction in their
seminaries, ani that the measure, which is a fresh attack on the
rights of Bishops, would displease the Court of Rome. The
declaration referred to, and which it appears the Archbishop
and others of the French clergy reject, was drawn up by the cele-
brated Bossusy, adopted by an assembly of the Deputies of the
Clergy in 1682, and sanctioned by Louts XIV. It embraces the
four following propositions—viz. I. That the Pors has no authority
in the temporal affairs of Kings. S. That the Council is superior
to the Pon, as is recognized in the fourth and fifth sessions of the
Council of Constance. 3. That the apostolic power ought to be
exercised in regulating the Canons, without infringing the liberties
of the Gallican Church. 4. That it belongs chiefly to the Pore to
decide in matters of faith; that his decrees are obligatory on all '
churches; but that nevertheless his decisions are sot irrefirmable
until after the Church has accepted them.

Charleston Papers have been received to the 13th of
June. One of them states that the schooner Eclipse
arrived in nine days from Laguira. Captain HATH-
WAY reported no news from the Patriot or Royalist ar-
mies. It was understood at Laguira that General Sou-'
BLETTY had been appointed Minister and Envoy Extra-
ordinary from the Colombian Government to the Cour►
of St. James's.
