Notwithstanding the unfavourable news, by the French Papers,
from Portugal, and the sailing of two ships of war, with sealed
orders, from Portsmouth, the Consol market maintains its ground.
Consols, which left off on Saturday at 841 sellers, opened this
morning at 84 buyers; but soon after turned sellers, and were done
at 83/ to 84, and Reduced may be quoted at 82i to I—a good
deal has been done at 84; since which little business is doing. A
number of suppositions are afloat in regard to the above vessels
sailing; report says, that three .or four English Regiments are to
proceed to Portugal. Consols have just been done at 114 g for the
Account.—The chief speculation in the Foreign market this morn-
ing,!is in Chillan 'Bond% which have considet'ably improved, owing,
ft is said, to accounts having been received, that she Chilian squa-
dron has joined that of Buen .s Ayres.

Reduced at 821 i, with little doing at present. Upon the whole,
the fluctuation has not been more than 1 per Cent. and the market

Ctdllan Bonds were the spirit of the Foreign Market this morning

We have received this morning the Paris Papers of
Saturday, and the Etas of Sunday's date. The former
contain only •ague reports on the subject of Portugal,
which the latter, under the head of 46 lies of the day,"
formally contradicts.
There is nothing else in these Papers worthy of no-
tice; whilst, from the tone of the Etoile, and steadiness
of the French Funds, we may venture to say, that the
affairs of Portugal are not likely to disturb the tran-
quillity of any part of Europe:
The earlier French Papers afford Ito additional intel-
ligence from Spain or Portugal. There is an article from Madrid

in the Motatetsr, but it is of an old date, and only speaks of the
auempts of the Portuguese Refugees as scents to come, and not as
past occurrences. It is said in this article that besides the two
divirisos which were to enter Portugal through the province of
Taisits.Mootes, there was a third collecting in Andalusia, to invade
Algarve a second time, as soon as the Constitutional troops should
have marched in a different direction.

By the Buenos Ayres Mail, we have received the
Mensagero Argenlino, to the 231 September inclusive,
announcing the arrival of Lord Ponsonby, on the 14th
September, at Buenos Ayres, as Envoy Extraordinary
and Minister Plenipotentiary, from his Britannic Majesty
to the Argentine Republic. His Lordship was conveyed
to Buenos Ayres in his Majesty's ship Ranger, corn.
manded by Lord John Thynne, and was received bosh
on his landing and on the presentation of his credentials,
with every demonstration of respect by the President
and Members of the Government. The following are
the details, including the speech of his Lordship, and
the answer of the President on the latter occasion::

BUENOS AYRES, &maims P2—(OrriclAL).

The prent state of the war requiring the increase of
all the forces, both the troops of the line and the mi
litia, the Government decrees that the companies of the
militia regiments shall be increased front seventy to
a hundred men, and the Commanders are to proceed to
enlist that number in their respective districts.

(Signed)

156.—YesterdAy evening the English corvette the
Sanger. Captain Lord Thy nne, arrived here horn Monte
Video, having on board Lord Ponsonby, Mi. Scott, his
Secretary, and nine servants.
19(11:—Lord P. nsonby, British Ambassador to thi,
Republic, was publicly received to-day by his Excel
leacy -the,P4ciitient.
st.—..oa the 1.90, as we have mentioned in our last
Numbers the Right Nish Lord Ponsonby was received

by the President as Envoy Extraordinary and Minister'
Plenipotentiary to this Republic.
His Eicellency having bten brought to the Palace of,
the Government with much ceremony; was received by
the President, accompanied by the Ministers, the Diplo-
matic Body, all the General and Superior Officers, the
Chiefs of the Departments of the Administration, the
Deputies of the Congress for each Province, and many
repectable citizens. His Lordship having taken his
seat, made the following Speerh in English:

" I am commissioned to deliver inio the hands of
your Excellency a letter from his Majesty the King of
Great Britain, appointing me his Majesty's Envoy
Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary.
" I am highly flattered by the honour which has been
conferred on me by choosing me to bring this additional
evidence of the sentiments of esteem and friendship
which animate my Sovereign in favour of the Republic
of the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata,
and I shall constantly endeavour to execute the im-
portant mission which has been confided to me in such
a manner as to merit the good will of this Government,
and to promote the friendly relations which happily ex•
ist between the two parties."
To this speech the President replied in French, ex-
pressing the facts which guarantee the particular affec-
tion with which the Argentine Republic regards the
United Kingdom of Great Britain for the recogni.
tion of our independence, setting itself above the re-
serve which the other European nations have observed
in this respect, and that it was with 'peat satisfaction he
saw this noble sentiment still confirmed, since his Bri-
tannic Majesty had chosen to represent him to the Ar-
gentine Republic, a person so distinguished by his rank
and personal merit. That the President for his part,
and in the name of all the Members of the Republic,
took this occasion to express to his Lordship, the parti-
cular esteem that was due to him, as well as to his
Majesty George IV. and the British Nation.
His Lordship was then re•conduucted to his Hotel,
with the same ceremony as he had been brought to the
Palace of the Government.
21.—The last accounts from the Banda Oriental are
satisfactory, and give reason to hope that the distur-
bances will have a speedy and happy terminations
Bernahe Rivera having been arrested, after all means
that prudence could dictate had been employed to bring
him to reason.

23.—The vessels which conveyed 700 men to the
Banda Oriental have returned without accident, to the
great di'grace of the enemy's squadron, which was
1
in sight.
The brave Orientals who had been seduced by some
unworthy sons of this land of liberty, an•i mosed by an
indiscreet zeal to take steps fatal to their own interest,
as soon as they discovered that a shameful treason was
the real object of their chiefs, who were animated by a
sordid hope of vile interest, have returned to their duty
and itined their brethren, to combat with them for
liberty. Since Ribera and Cabellere_were taken, all the
other officers have been pardoned and incorporated
with the army.
L Extract of a letter from Buenos Ayres, Sept. 25:
" Lord B. PONSONST arrived on the 151 h September,
in his Majesty's ship Ranger, and was presented to the
President on the 19th Sept. The affair was managed
with considerable splendour, although his mission to
Rio Janeiro is said to be without effect. The Emperor
of Brazil is fully bent upon continuing the war.—
In the meantime the blockading continues; troops are
continually passing from this to the Banda Oriental. A
few months will produce important events—active
military operations are about to continue. A division
of from 6 to 8,000 Buenos Ayrean troops, under General
ALAVER, are destined to enter the Brazilian territory
of Rio Grande, while another division, under General
SOLER, will form the siege of Monte Video on the land
side. Admiral BROWN left us on the 14th of August,
to proceed overland to Patagonia, to take the command
of three vessels of war, expected from Chili. The Buenos
squadron is anchored in the Inner Road—the crew ex-
cellent, neatly all English, but the Officers contemptible.

Hamburgh Papers to the sth were received this
morning. The following are extracts:

ST. PETERSBUROH. Noviwits it.

The St. Pdersbure Gazette says, "Accounts from
teorgia of the 26th of October afford no important in.
relligence. The Schah of Persia .bas gone from Agar
to Tauris, and left the troops he had with him at the
disposal of Abbas Miran. The latter, notwithstanding
the difficulty of finding provisions in Karabasch, has
not withdrawn from the Arazes, for fear that General'
Paskewitsch might employ his troops against the Per.
I sians who still remain in Schirwan, under Shah Aly
-Mirza. General Yermoloff, with the detachment that
he has assembled, has proceeded from Kaketia to
Tschari. and intended to cross the river Alazan on the
29. h of October."

The Journal of St. Pelersburgh of this day gives the
following farther accounts from Georgia, of the 31st
of October:—" The Persians have evacuated the pro•
vince of Schirwan, and Major General Von Krabbe,
who was at Kuba, has already advanced to• Staraja
Schamakba ; Mustapha, formerly Khan of Schirwan, had
here received orders horn the Schah to send Schaksadi
Schekali Mira back to Persia, to keep the Persian
infantry with him, and to remain himself in Schirwan;
but as soon as Mustapha learnt that Gen. Krabbe was
advancing to Staraja Scharnakba, he hastened to cross
the Kor at Dschajaaak, endeavouring, however, to
get the inhabitants of the country, especially the
Normades, to accompany him in his flight. They,
however, being informed of his intention, had dis'
persed. The few whom he compelled to follow
im were soon set at liberty by Mustapha Khao's
brother, Gaschim Khan, who, with the other chief men
of the count! y, was with General Krabbe, and who, at
the head of the cavalry of Schirwan, pursued Mustapha
