Our accounts from Lisbon assure us that the state.
intents which have appeased relative to the alleged ex-
cesses of the Authorities there are greatly exaggerated,
and that the British residents have been, in many in.
stance., highly indecorous, in manifesting publicly their
hostility to Don MIGUEL and his Governs ent, and thus
incurred their displeasure and its effects. We can
readily believe this: Englishmen—who, by the way,
cry out hastily against the oppression of their own
country—are t ro 'apt to forget that in a foreign nation
there is thrice the restraint ; and, measuring the for-
bearance or the rulers there by the standard of English
freedom, bring down upon themselves toenalties against
which they boisterously protest, an.l punishments which
are made the suhject of memorial and remonstrance.
Few indeed are the cases which. after inquiry, ap, ear
deservi,,g the notice they have excited.
Tbe" outrsged furling;' the d' cruel incarceratiiens,"
and the " masked indignities." which are said to be
suffered by our ccuntrynsen there, art for the most part
mere moan.bine, and generally prove to be I. ss se•ewe
chastisement than would be dealt out to the Portuguese
in cases of similar transgressions. Indeed, from all we
cart learn, there i. a positive and easily perceived relax-
ation in the discipline as respects the subjects of Great
Britain, and what would be instantly punished in
Portuguese, is frequently overlooked among the British
residents. Our countrymen ought to recollect that men
are no( allowed In every country publicly to abuse the
Government and insult the Crown.

• We have pledged ourselves to the proef, that no al.
Irtntement ever yet contemplated, respecting the pay-
_

meet of the Roman Catholic Clergy in Ireland. can
lOW the kart security to the State, or the remotest
prospect that their persicioas influence will be di-
minished.

'Our renders may not be aware, that the Rnintth

crawl or Secular Clergy, and theltegular. The for.;
