TO CORRESPONDENTS.
Law:Anus in continuminn to-morrow.

The sensation produced in the public mind, by the ex-
periments hazarded upon its better sympathieS by the
Times, in its commentaries on the detention of the Lo-
nach, has caused that journal to pause in its impatience
of Miguelite demonstration. It feels, leading journal
as it assumes to be, that it had ventured beyond its mark;
that indignation, instead of acquiescence, was gathering
round it; and that popular disfavour—if it persisted in that
flagitious direction—would overtake it in the ratio of its

former popularity. Accordingly, it is enlarging its heart
once more, for the re-admission of kindlier sentiments to-
wards the betrayed and.innocent Donna Matzen; collate-
rally, though—we suspect—prompted to this enlargement,
by the ministerial difficulties with which it knows the ques-
tion to be surrounded here. That the disposition on the
part of Government, has been to acknowledge MiG u EL—
rather than MARIA—we regret to say, can be
proved by abundant evidence : but it hesitates,
on the threshold of its fatal policy, to balance the probable
mischiefs which would follow its consummation. In the
mean time, let not the country be deceived by the fair
appearances of amity with Don PEDRO, and hospitality
to his exiled.daughter. It is true she was receivA, when
she landed in this country, with the honours paid only to
acknowledged sovereignty—royal salutes were fired from
the ships in the harbour, and from the fortresses on shore—
and all this by the command of Ministers : that Guards
of honour were appointed to attend her sacred person,
and even our gracious Monarch received her in state,
and pledged her at the banquet by the title of Queen
and Ally. But all this was a contrived artifice, to pre-
serve undetected the deep diplomacy Is hich was going
forward : a hollow demonstration to lull the unsuspect-
ing public, while the Noble Earl was " reconciling"
—as he calls it—" conflicting interests," and pre-
paring his plans and tools for counter-operation. Vis-
count ST RA G FOR D—properly primed and loaded—then
sailed for the Brazils. The iniquitous instructions which
he received, so at variance with the honours and recog-
nitions by which the QUEEN was surrounded in England,
have been fulfilled in their completest spirit. What
could the Emperor Don PEDRO do, against such an
' overmatch as the Noble Duke and the Noble Earl ?
Where were his resources—either diplomatic or phy-
' sical—to enable him to run counter to the dictation
of the English Cabinet, and not hazard his own throne
by intervening against its will ? He submitted ; what
else remained for him ? Nature became abeyanced
under State necessity. So ample were the powers given
to Lord STRANGFORD, of tying up the hands of the
Emperor in this dispute, and so far-sighted have been his
provisions, that a pledge has been exacted from Don
PEDRO—and given by him not even financially to
assist his daughter. And the Noble Earl still talks of
the neutrality of England !

CITY. TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Consols opened this morning at the same price they left off yes-
terday,llll4 for the Account ; soon after they were done at 88f 3,
and mil for Money. The market appears firm at present.
In the Foreign Market Scarce a bargain doing at present.
No tidings to this bout of the arrival of the Hamburgh steamer.
CITY, HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.
We have been exceedingly dull during the morning for the want
of some information to cause an energy in the Consol Market.
Consols have continued, from the oprit,g price, which was 88/
to 8811, to the present time with scarcely any ',miners doing.
The Foreign Market is very languid—nothing doing except in
Bonds, which have a little improved. By the information re-
ceived from hi° Janeiro, by a ship arrived at Guernsey, it appears
that unfavourable accounts have been received of the Brazil mines,
which have only produced, in eight days, 64 lbs. of gold, which is
a falling off since the last accounts.

Accounts from Smyrna of the 20th of Juhe, mention,
that the Hellenes are nearly masters of the Ancient
Crete, some few strong places excepted, which are in the
hands of the Turhs, where militia are generally more ex-
perienced in the art of war; but the Greeks are braver in
the various desperate engagements which have taken
place. The unfortunate persons taken by either party are
immediately put to death ; even women and children.
Fortunately during this war of extermination, the French
ships are mixing off the coast, and the officers effec-
tually snatch from death the women and children from
the cohtending parties.

Barbadoes Papers, to the 30th June, state that the
Island of Dominica'is in a state of agitation on account
if the arrest of one of the Members of the House of
Assembly. The constable was ordered forthwith to the
bar of the House he receiyed his order from the Provost
Marshal ; the latter pleaded that the House was not sit;
.thig at the time of the arrest; he was sent to prison, mid
his office was about to be taken from him. The Gover-
nor disapproved of the proceeding, and prorogued the
House of Assembly. The sentence against Mr. Osborne,
the Solicitor-General of Grenada, has been confirmed by

the Colonial Secretary: he is superseded.
