Portuguese Papers have been received. The Go-
vernment Gazette of Lisbon contains the following
remarks on the ilia' of her MAJESTY:

" After these two great events (the great Revolutions in Spain
and Naples), another occurred, which certainly was not to be
expected in civilized times, if civilization went hand-in-hand
with morality. We mean the trial actually commenced against
the QUEEN of ENGLAND, accused of the crime of adnitery, in the
face of the nation and of the world, before the British Parlia-
ment, by her own husband, for the purpose of obtaining a
divorce ! The decency which characterizes the Portuguese
nation forbids us to stain our pages and pollute the ears of our
readers with the scandalous charges accumulated against the
QUEEN in this accusation. No Englishman of character has seen

without shame and indignation the disgrace which this trial has
cast upon the British• Government, the result of which, what-
ever it may be, can produce no benefit to the nation, and cannot_
fail to impress a brand of immortal infaMy on the history of our
times. We shall therefore continue to say little on this trial, and
shall wait for its issue to deliver our sentiments. By the last
accounts from London, which reach to August 30th, we find
that witnesses-avere under examination oarthe part of the pro-
secutor, and that their depositions were taken in open Parlia-
ment, to which the guava daily went. It is fully anticipated
that her MAJESTY will refute all the charges, and justify .the
testimonies of love and regard which she has received from
the Nation."

Letters from Lima have also been received, of a
date so recent as the 29th of July. They mention,
that the news of the re-establishment of the Constitu-
tion in Spain had just bcen received there, by a vessel
fiom Rio Jar,eiro, and caused great joy. " This im-
portant event," adds one of the letters, " insures the
prosperity and content of Peru, and guards the coun-
try from all external aggressions." Rejoicings had
taken place, and the official notifications were ex-
pected with the greatest anxiety.
Lieutenant FRANKLAND and his companions, on
the 30th of June last, were left, all well, '7OO miles
up the country from Hudson's Bay. By the begin-
ning of September they would, no doubt, arrive at
the Copper Mine River.
By the last arrival from China, dated May. 15, we
have received the following intelligence :—The trade
seems somewhat to improve. Notwithstanding the
immense arrivals of ships from other ports of India,
the market for cotton had been materially affected,
owing to the scarcity of that article, and the ships
that had any cargoes effected a great profit. By ac.
counts from Manila, it appears some slight disturb-
ances had taken place; but, owing to the spirited con-
duct of the Governor of that island, all had been re-
stored, to quietness. Trade was very brisk between
that island and China. There. had been exceeding
bad weather in the China Seas during the monsoons,
which had done a considerable deal, of damage, but
{no accatiat of the loss of any ships had been reported.

Monday, the crack pack of harriers, the property
of Mr. RIDGEWAY, had a grand burst with a bag
fox, in, the neighbourhood of Hereford. The first six
miles, over a billy inclosed country, was done in
twenty minutes. Only three sportsmen, out of a
large number of keen hunters, could find the courage
to take the River Lugg ; the remainder, in seeking
for Mordiford, Lugg, and Hampton Bridges, had the
consolation to find their horses panting in every di-
section but the right one.
Wednesday, the Earl of DERBY'S stag-hounds, to.
gether with his Lordship's hunters and stud-grooms;
arrived at the Oaks, in Kent, from his Lordship's
seat in Lancashire.

CR weLTY To ANIMALS.—A fellow giving his name
Royal Heats, and who acts as a deputy to one of the
licensed drovers of the Smithfield-market, was yes-
terday brought before the Sitting Magistrate at '
Guildhall, and fined 20s. for cruelty to a bullock.
The charge against him was made by a Gentleman
who saw this ruffian strike the animal repeatedly
upon its nose, whilst another miscreant was beating
it on the legs behind,
The Regular, stage-coach, was overturned on Sa-
turday last at Axminster,- in consequence of the
coachman driving against a spur post, placed against
the church-yard, by which accident some of the pas-
sengers were so -much hurt, as to be unable to pro-
ceed to London. About a year ago, the same coach
was overturned near the same spot, and threw some
of the passengers through the window of a tailor's,
shop, upon the shop-board !
Monday night, or early on Tuesday-morning, the
premises of Messrs. BlLLerr and HOOKER, Green
Dragon-yard, Southwark, were entered by. means. of
false keys, and robbed of property to the value of
' LSO and upwards. The same. sight the dwelling-
house of Mrs. HUDSON, JOSeploStit'Ot, Lambeth, was
entered in like manner, and robbed of plate, linen„
and other property, to the value of MO or C. 50.
Tuesday night, the Red Lion public-house, in Gun-
' street, St. George's-fields, was broken into, and L'2o
in,Rank-notes, and allout 00 in cask& besides Oihery
property, stolen therefrom.

OLD BAILEY".

Yesterday, T. Hunt, T.. Eaton, J. Hughes, and J.
Smith, were indicted for assaulting J. Perkins, on tl-,e
highway, and stealing from his person a watch, vai,it
4:5, a knife, a comb, three balls of worsted, and other
articles, his property.

Mr. Perkins stated, that he was a carpenter, re-
siding at Sunbury, Middlesex, and on the evening cf
the 16th of September he was returning home on
foot, along. the Harrow-road ; when he was over.
taken by four men, who came running along in a
'great hurry, and he wished them good night. One
Of them. tapped him on the shoulder, and said,
D—n your eyes, have you got any -money?" Tc,
which he replied, No; that he was only a laboto-
ing man, and had moreover been some time out of
employment. He had scarcely spoken when thi:.=
surrounded him, and rifled his pockets of everything
they contained; He said he hoped they would nv
use him ill; and one of them said, with an oats.
a No; if you do not resist ;" they then suffered
to go away.
.8. Lack, a patrole of Bow-street, stated, that he
and three other officers were stationed on the Har-
rOw-road for several nights, in consequence of many
ighway robberies having been committed there. Oa
the evening of Saturday, the 30th of September, la
they were waiting on the road, the four prisc,:ers
passed, and wished them good night. They followed,
and witness seized Smith, who pulled out a pistol.
Witness seized it by the barrel, and wrenched it from
him. He then handcuffed him, and, turning round.
seized Eaton. He found some money and a pe.nknift
on Eaton. The pistol was loaded.
Perkins identified the knife found on Eaton„-ashii
property; but could not swear to either prisoner.
Mr. Justice 1.14-111KE, in summing up, observed,
there was. not, a tittle of evidence to criminate tl.e.
prisoners, Hunt; Hughes, and Smith, in this charge;
and the Jury acquitted them, and found Eaten,
Guilty—Death.
Hunt, Eaton, and Hughes, were'then put on trial,
charged with robbing Etienne Bertin, Surgeon to the
Duke Decazes, of a £lO note, six £1 notes, and four-
teen shillings in silver, a gold watch, a box-coat, and
other property, on the 27th of September, in the Pa-
rish of Harrow, in the County of Middlesex.
Mr. Bertiu was stopped in his gig, on the Harrow-
road, by three men, one of whom seized the horse's
reins, and the other two jumped into the gig, one
on each side, and one of the two -presented a pistol
to his head. They then rifled his pockets ad the pro-
perty mentioned; they, also took his box-coat, which
he begged they would return, as it was a.very cold
night, and he had along way to go. But the man
who held the reins called out, " Blow out his b.—y-
brains if he is'nt quiet." They then left him. Eaton
was the man- who presented the pistol, and he be-
lieved, from the voice of Hunt, that it was lie who
held the horse.

Chapman, the Officer, produced a handkerchief,
which he found upon Hunt, and which was identi-
fied by Mr. Bertin as the one taken nom him on the
night in question.
The Jury found Hunt Guilty—Death, and ac•
quitted Eatonaud Hughes.
The three prisoners were again tried for a high-
way robbery upon J. Pike.—The evidence was per-
fectly conclusive, and the Jury found all the pri-
soners Guilty—Death.
Mr. Justice PARKE observed, that it was a most
happy circumstance for the Public that so desperate
a gang had been discovered and brought to, justice.
The following were convicted of felonies,. viz.—G. Thomas,
for stealing a watch, &c. W. Donwortb, for a like offence ;
Sarah Cerbyn, for stealing 100 lbs. of paper; E. riugo; for steal-
ing a gold watch, &c. W. Jackman' for staling a quantity of
lead; Wilke (pleaded Gniky), 'for stealing .a watch, .!cc.
J. Wooton, W. Tomes, and D. Huntley, for stealing ten silver
tea-spoons, and other articles.
T. Simmonds, aged nineteen, ivls indicted for.
stealing fifteen sheep, the prVerty of J: Harding;
W. Hardinge, and I'. Searle.
On the 20th of June last, the sheep were safe on a
common at Chobham, Surrey, and the following day
were missed, and after a lapse of some weeks they
were traced •to the - possession of a Mr. Watson, at
Northall, Middlesex.
Mr. Watson proved, that he purchased the sheep
from the prisoner, about the Ist of September..
The prisoner, in his defence, said he purchased the
sheep from* his brother, S. Simmonds ; and, in sup-
port of his defence, fie called
J. Shoesmith, who deposed that the prisoner had
lodged at his house, and some time ago his brother
Stephen visited him on é Sunday, and the prisoner
asked his brother for some money which he owed.
him. The brother said he had no money, but would
sell him some sheep ;they accordingly bargained for
the sale of them, Stephen afterwards paying to the
prisoner 16s. as he remaining difference.
S. Simmonds, the brother, was also called, and
came from Newgate, where he was committed with
the prisoner, but no bill had been found. He was,
however, detained for trial on another charge of
sheep-stealing at the Surrey Assizes. He tad the
`same story, nearly in the same words as Shoesmith.
When cross-examined as to• dates, he prevaricated
considerably.
Mr. Baron Woon summed up the evidence, acd
the Jury, after a quarter of an hour's deliberation,
returned a verdict of Not Guilty. ,
James Shields, aliai Tit Shields, was indicted for
stealing from the person of Margaret Cameron, a
pocket-book, containing several Bank Notes. This
offence was committed a-- long since as October,
1817, and three persons, belonging to a numerous
gang, have been convicted ; the present prisoner had
contrived to elude the vigilance of justice until these
few days, when he was met by Jefferson, the consta-
ble, and apprehended. On this occasion Mr. Jeffer-
son was not forthcoming, and the prisoner was con-
sequently acquitted.
The Colour ordered the recognizanccs of Jefferson
to be estreated.
A Gentleman of-the name of Kutch had his pocket'
picked on Wednesday afternoon in Sweetines-alley,
Cornhill,, of his pocket-book, which contained Bali:-
notes to the amount of four thousand and forty Pout
pounds, and a check upon a Bauking-house for sixty
' pounds more!
