The Bulletin at Fife House, this day stat•s—" That
Lord LIVERPWL, after passing another good night, has
gained some ground sinc: yesterday."

nounces in the following terms the melancholy news'
of her untimely death :
" sevErerszern A I'D LAS:f BUDLATIM, 11TH DECIMBER,
A QUAITEVAST TiN, A.M. •
" The public are informed that, most. unhappily, the
illtrns of her Majesty the Empress has resisted all the
fforts employed, with unremitted zeal by all the phr
sicians of the Imperial Household, GOD was pleased to
call her to himself at a quarter past ten o'clock.

(Signed)

0 I3ARON DE INHOMERINE."

From the first bulletin, it appears that her Majesty
had been suffering ever since the beginning of No-
vember, when tie Baron de Inhomerina was called in
to attend her.

Her Majesty had nearly completed her 30th year ;
her age, being 29 years 10 months and 19 days. She
was married on the 13th of May, 1817, to the Crown
Prince, now Emperor of Brazil.
_ _. _

•
Doting the time that elapsed from the publication
of the first bulletin to the fatal termination of her
Majesty's illness, the anxiety of the inhabitants of the
capital was extreme; the Palace was constantly sur
rounded with crowds of persons, both natives and
foreigners, of all classes, eager to catch some in-
formation that might flatter the ardent hopes which
they cherished of her Majesty's recovery ; but the 10th
bulletin published on the Bth December excited the
greatest alarm, which was augmented by every suc-
ceeding account till her death. The disorder seems to
have been a severe bilious attack, rendered more dan-
gerous by her state of pregnancy, which terminated in
I miscarriage on the night of the Ist of December: from
that time, with some occasional intervals, her Majesty
continued to grow worse. The following Papers to
the 16th contain the accounts of the public demon-
stations of grief ; the lying in state, and the funeral,
which was performed with much pomp on the 14th of
December. Public mourning was ordered for six months,
and the Courts of Justice were closed for eight days.

The Emperor being absent, there is scarcely any
news in the Rio Papers, which are almost wholly filled
with European intelligence, especially from Portugal.
The following are some extracts :
DEC. 11.—The Astrea, No. 71, of 7th December,
having published two articles said to have been copied
from the Memorial Bordelais, containing a letter stated
to have been written by his Majesty the Emperor to
Dr. Francia, Director of Paraguay, and the answer of
the latter to his Majesty, we are authorised to disavow
this correspondence, which its absurd tenor sufficiently
proves to be a forgery.
Dec. 21.—News having been received of the happy
arrival of his Majesty the Emperor at Santa Cartharina,
Te Deux: has been celebrated today on this account in
the Imperial Chapel, at which the Council and the Mi-
nisters of State and the. Court were present.

Dac.23.—An official letter from St. Catharine's,
dated Cuidade de Desterro, 9th December, says, that
his Majesty the Emperor was met on the 3d, in the
morning, in Campo Born, twenty-eight leagues from that
town; that he was in excellent health, and proceeding
with the same rapidity to the province of St. Pedro.
The subsequent Papers, to the 4th of January inclu-
sive, contain no further accounts; nor do any of them,
from the 26th of November to the 4th of January, make
any mention of military operations.

Also a Jamaica Mail arrived this morning, with
pa'pers and letters to the 9th of Jan. The following are
some extracts from the papers brought by this con-
veyance:
RIO DR LA HACHE, Drx. 25.

A vessel has arrived here in two days from Mirai:
cabo, bringing accounts of Bolivar having entered that
place on his route to Valencia. He was received most
enthusiastically by the inhabitants; a large canopy
made of silk was erected at the entrance of the town,
under which he received the public authorities ; after
which he was conducted to the Palace, headed by a
number of young Ladies. He then issued a Proclamation.
Paez, after declaring in favour of a federal form of
Governmeat, wanted to form one at Caraccas, and to
place himself at its head, and to be quite independent of
Bolivar. He marched at the head of his army against
Porto Bello, but was refused admittance into the town
he then commenced an attack on it, but was twice
driven off with some loss.

It is confidently expected, that as soon as Bolivar
and the troops (which are said to be much dissatisfied)
will desert Paez, that he will be brought instantly to a
Court Martial for his conduct.

The Colombian Government intends, after the Ist of
next month, Jan. to lay an additional duty of 17i per
cent. on all British manufactured goods.
Caraecas Papers, which have reached us by the
same Channel, through the N.irth and South Ame-
rican Coffee-heu-e, mention that the bland of Mar-
garita has adhered to the determination expressed
throughout the principal cities of the Republic, to solicit
the assembly of the Grand Convention, and the intro-
duction of reforms in the Constitution. It has at
the same time separated itself from the department
of the Maturin, and incorporated itself with that of
Venezuela. Two communications have likewise been
made to the Civil and Military Chief of Venezuela,
by the British Consul; the one relative to the sth Ar-
ticle of the Decree, published by Government here on
Bth July last, declaring that they would not be respon-
sible for the property of such foreigners as should con-
tinue to reside in the territory which had refused them
obedience: to which a satisfactory answer was returned
by General Paez : the other enclosing a representation
from the British merchants, on the inconvenience to
which they were subjected by the interrup•ion of the
posts within the interior, and the injury they suf.
feted in consequence in C.eir trade and commercial

rspeculatitrnt; to which also a favourable answer lug
, given, and the evil complain sed of inrmediately removed•
Bogota Papers of 14th December, mention the sr
rival of Bolivar at Taaja on 29th Nov. On his reaching
the Bridge of 11.yaca, the 'scene of the glorious action
which decided the fate of New Granada, he was met by
the principal authorities of Tunja, and was addressed by
the Quez le Nado de Hacienda, in the following terms:
" This field, Most Ezcellent Sir, was the holy land
of our redemption, and the Aurora of your brightest
glory; and as we hail the ri'ing sun, so do the inhabi-
tants of Boyaca hail your arrival this day with feelings
of the deepest gratitude and affection Three nations
of our Continent, on beholding you in the plains of
Boyaca, shower down their blessings on your head, and
offer up prayers for your safety: to the rest of the world
you are an object of admiration. Long live our
Liberator !"

His trcellency answered in the most affectionate
terms, and made particular mention of Gen. Azuategna.

The Paris Papers, which reached us last night, are
barren of news. The Etoile contains the substance of
letters from Madrid of the 15th Feb. but in which there
is not the slightest allusion to the disarming of the
Portuguese rebels, who have fled into Galicia. The
Journal du Debate, which has advice' of the same date
from that capital, says that, instead of being arrested
and dispersed, they have been received with the utmost
kindness and cordiality, and that General Boma,
Captain General of that Province, upon being apprized
of their arrival, immediately issued a Proclamation,
ordering all the inhabitants to treat them with
the greatest hospitality. Yet this high functionary,
when he gave this order, knew well that the Captain
General of another province had been shortly before
displaced, and brought before a Court Martial, for
having pursued a line of conduct, exactly similar to his
own. Therefore the proceedings against the latter must
be either an insulting farce, or Captain General Ennui
must treat the orders of his Sovereign with the most
studied contempt. In the former case, it would be
impossible to speak too harshly of the conduct of
the Spanish Government, or take too strict precau-
tions against the effects of its duplicity. On the
other hand, King Freantrratin, to appear consistent,
and maintain his authority at the same time, must
punish this new infraction of his orders, by dismissing
EGUIA from his command, as well as General LONGA.
However the mystery will be soon cleared away, when
it will be time to express ourselves fearlessly on the
subject; though we cannot help saying that at pretest"
the affair wears a very suspicious aspect. Should the
rebels renew their incursions into Portugal, there could
from that moment be but one opinion as to the Spanish
Government being accessary to their hostile designs.
They appear to have lost all their materiel in the last
incursion, and to repair their loss from private sources
of sympathy, however active, is wholly out of the
question. The means of re-invading their country can
only come from the military depots of the Spanish
Government ; and it will be therefore necessary to watch
their future movements with the most lively interest,
as they will furnish conclusive proofs of the ,
cerity or insincerity of the Spanish Monarch. It is
to be presumed, in the meantime, that the policy
of our own Government will be decided by the event;
for it would be a manifest compromise between sound
policy and a truckling expediency, should it wink at
any new attempt against the tranquillity of Portugal
and the existence of her new institutions. The eyes of all
Europe are fixed at this time upon the British Cabinet
to see whether its measures agree with the energy of its
professions; and this intense curiosity is likely to re-
ceive additional excitement from the calamity which
has deprived it of one of its most efficient members.
Whilst the friends of good government will every
where receive the intelligence with unaffected grief
and alarm, it will probably inspire the partisans
of despotism with the most audacious hopes ; and
there cannot be a stronger reason for wishing, that
the Ministerial Arrangements, rendered necessary by
this lamentable event, should not only be completed
speedily, but in the most liberal spirit. Any other ar-
rangement would disgust this country; add to the
irritation of Ireland, and alienate our best friends
abroad ! In the meantime, there is not as yet the
slightest room for gloomy presentiments; but so many
interests are involved in the decision, that, until it be
made known, it is impossible to be wholly free from
anxiety.

It will be seen from our City article, that the Money
Market is in a most feverish slate to-day, whilst the con-
jectures as to the cause art very loose and unsatisfa, tory.
The rcport that the United Stales are itting out an

'armament to enforce their claims on France, is too
absurd to need refutation. The tumour of a Loan is
not altogether so preposterous; but the real cause, we
presume, will be fouttcl partly in the recent failures, and
partly in the unsettled state of the Cabinet.

Dispatches from the Cape of Good Hope, and from
the Leeward Islands, were received this day at the Co-
