The House of Lords did nor meet for public business
yesterday. In the House of Commons some conversation too/
place on the presentation of a Petition from Mr. Tuomarr, of
Dover, from whom 10,000 guineas were seised, while he was, as
alleged, about to export them, about seventeen years ago. The
Crown returned its third. The Petitioner sought restitution of the
rest. The CUANCILLOR of the Excustauas thought the House could
not interfere. The Petition was laid on the table. A number of
Petitions la favour, and two Petitions against the Catbolic Claims,
were presented. The Corn Importation Bill was read a first time,
and ordered to be read a second time on Friday.

The French Papers dated Tuesday are barren of
interest, and only repeat a tissue of contradictory ru-
mours which hare been daily circulated for the last
two months, respecting the passage of the Pruth by the
Russians.

The Lisbon correspondence inserted in our front page,
presents an interesting account of the late proceedings
of the Senate, and part of the rabble of that city, on
the birth day of the Qualm MOTHLII ; and leaves no
doubt either of the wish of Don MIGUEL to usurp the
Regal title and authority, or of his adherents to invest
him with it. His answer to the Address of the Senate,
which we gave yesterday, bears the most ambiguous
and evasive character ; and though he speaks in general
terms of the important affairs contained in the represen-
tation of the Senate, he adds that they should be
conducted by the legal merles established by the
fundamental Laws of the Monarchy. It is true,
he bas written Circular Letters to the Ambassadors,
.disclaiming his wish to become Absolute, but
the nest news which we are warranted in expecting
from Lisbon, is that of his Proclamation in assuming
the Kingly authority.

By the Flanders Mail we received this morning Ham-
burgh and German Papers, to a late date. The only
article of the least interest contained in these Papers we
subjoin ;
