stair's so trial/ disheartening: Tbeir country. hart
sunk to the greatest sum of weakness; her finances
were in the most deplorable condition, and the whole
of the public admini.tratinti was in the hands of the
sworn enemies of political improvement, when the
6tst indications of the present troubles were given.—'
Yet, without any aid, but such as they have derived
from their own courage, and the justice of their
cause, they have repeatedly triumphed over their ene-
mies; and, if the rebellion had not assumed a hydra-
headed character, through the agency of Spain and her
Abettors, it would have been crushed before now by
their unassisted efforts ; but, in spite of discouragement,
they will signalise their services by this triumph, as soon
as the weather permits them to avail themselves of their
manifest superiority. In the meantime. we earnestly
exhort them tofollow their own counsels, is preference
to foreign suggestions, from whatever quarter these may
come ; and if they will but be led by this guide, which is
an unerring one, to a people who are engaged in so noble
a cause, they will not only crush their domestic enemies,
but will obtain from the Spanish Monarch as ample re-
paration as ever. was extorted by a free people from a'
baffled and humbled despot. In the meantime; it will
be seen, upon reference to our eitracts from the Lisle*
Papers, that tl:e two Chambers are not inert at this
eventful, moment. In the Chamber of Deputies, a
motion for the disarmament of the militia, who

had joined the rebels, and subsequently returned to
their homes, vi as made on the 24th, and favour-
ably received. On the Ist instant a statement, con-
taining the names of the Magistrates who betrayed
their duty was laid before the Chamber ; and it was
decided by acclamation, that it should be read. On
the following day, another extraordinary measure
was proposed; and the first Article, authorising the
Goveipment to :aim a loan of four millions, was
agreed to. In this triumphant way do the Constitu-
tionalists repel the charge of apathy and cowardice, that
has been brought against them by persons, literally
employed to calumniate them, and thus bring the cause
of good Government, as well as its supporters, every
where into disrepute.

Dispatches from Lieutenant• General Sir W. IL CLEM*
Toe, G.C.B. commanding the British Forces in Portu-
gal, were also this morning received by Government,
brought to Falmooth by the Magnet packet, in six
days, front Lisbon. The following is an extract of a
Private Letter, dated

" COIMBRA. MARCH 2.

" With regard to news, the rebels after being driven
across the Mioho near Melgasso into Galicia, again
entered-Portugal farther to the eastward, and proceeded
to Chaves, and held the left bank of the Tamega, down
to its confluence with the Douro. The valiant Coo•
stitutionalists remained at Braga in inactivity, but at
length have moved against the rebels. Count Villa
Floe has marched by Amarante on Villa Real, and we
suppose will pursue the enemy through the lower parts
of Tres os-Montes bordering the Douro. General de
Mello has marched through the more central parts of
the province towards MirandeUa, and the last accounts
state the enemy to occupy the line of the Tua (the river
which runs from north to south, across the heart of Trait.
os-Montes,till it meets the Douro. Part of the enemy were
at Torre de hfoncorvo, a town higher up the Douro, and
lit no great distance from the Spanish frontier. It is
said they were constructing rafts to cross the Douro,
into Upper Beira; but others suppose, and with more
probability, that this is only a me de gaterre, and that
they will cross the Douro into Spain, at Freizo d'Espada
Acinta, near which are the Ferries of Vilbestre and
Santelle.

" Our army is meanwhile in a position ready to unite
on the points most likely to be threateneJ, in the event
of more serious warfare breaking out. General Blake-
ney's Brigade at Coimbra, General Arbuthnot's Brigade
at Leiria, and General Bouverie's Brigasle at Cart aro,
a little S. W. of Santarem ; a few days would enable
the whole to assemble at any point by which the Capital
might be threatened; so that you see I was tolerable
correct in my surmise long ago, that we should canton
between Coimbra and Abrantes. I trust the neeket
which we are anxiously and hourly expecting, will
bring favourable accounts of Mr. CANNING, whose loss
at this moment would be irreparable."

We received this morning Frankfort Papers to the 6th
inst. and the Algemeine Zeitung to the same day.—
It appears that the religious mummery, which has
been going on for some time in France, under
the immediate auspices of the Government, has ex-
cited universal disgust abroad, and no small share
of alarm on the part of those Governments, whose
dominions adjoin these of his Moat CitalsTraN MA.
JUITY. It would really seem that the latter anticipate
some dreadful explosion of popular discontent, unless
practices, which are at once a disgrace to reason and re-
ligion, receive an immediate check. The Court of Berlin
seems to be amongst the foremost of those who are ap-
prehensive of danger from the proceedings of the Frcisch
fanatics. Such, at least, is the construction which we
put upon the publication of the following letter, which
has appeared in the Journals of Cologne and Aix•la-
ehaprlle ; and as both of them are subject to the Pros-
' siati censorship, it may be reasonably inferred that the
letter which purports to be written from Rome, has been
'published by authority. The [(Bowing is a copy :

" We seldom read the numb Journals here, but we have learnt
with regret what is said and done in France. Nothing has more
afflicted those among us who are religiously disposed, than the late
misakiires of the men who are at the head of the Government. How
Was it pomible that men who are reckoned here anoing the most
1 zealous friends bt the Catholic Religion, should be struck by the
Ministry of his Most Christian M..josty. How could the odium Of
a pone' et of law,which every one Warne*, be imputed to Religion, mid
to the Priests? lilt greatly to be lanienreJ, that some Journals age

for aserliks to the common father. of the faithful, the idea of i law
which Is rejected by the faithful, because It offends reition in
all that is great and noble in it. The., who would place the
Catholic Church under the protection of so week a law, must
have a very mean opinion Of its internal strength. Cathelkism
is eternal as the power which has set it up in the world; it need.
not stamp duties and the proscription of the sciences to en.urc its
divine duration. Our Pope, Leo XII. has very different Ideas •
the sciences, which he esteems and patronizes. The severe measures
adopted against Lacretelle, Michaud, and Villemain, bad gtieved
his Holiness. Thew academicians are highly esteemed among us.
Blichaud's History of the Crusades and Lacretelle's History of the
Revolution, which display such religious and monarchical principles,,
are in the hands of all our Prelates, and the Pope has learnt with
pleasure that a man like Villemain makes the wonderful works of
the Fathers of the Church appear in all their beauty. I repeat It
is much to be lamented, that such things ire done in the name of
religion and morality; what have such acts of violence to do with
the legal suppression ,of the abuses of the press' Yes, religion will
have a checklist on the dissemination of bad books, but religion win
also have the mind lefi in entire liberty, for religion is einedd to
eland, as atheism is to esatier."

The Paris. Papers of Saturday and Sonday, which
reached us last night, contain no new' of the slightest
importance.

THE EARL OF LIVERPOOL.

•
The improvement of the health of the Noble Earl is
so great, that the consultation of several Medical Gen-
tlemen was given up yesterday, and only Dr. Datvaa
attended his Lordship. His Lordship, throughout the
day, continued in the same favourable state, and no al-
teration whatever took place up to a late hour last night.
At two o'clock this day no report had been made,
but the verbal answer to our inquities was,
" That Lord beim:ow. had paired a tolerable night, and con-
tinued much the same as yesterday."

Dispatches, dated the 20th of November, were re-

Lieutenant•Generel the Hon. Sir G. L. Cour, G.C.B.
at the Mauritius.

- Yesterday afternoon, at two o'clock, &Cabinet Council
was held at tie Foreign Oilice, ht Downinretreet, summonses for
the assembling of which were issued by Mr. Secretary Cananto
but Friday. Among the Members of the Cabinet present were
Earls Haaitower, Waratoatatera, and BATHURST' the Duke of
Wituturrox, Viscount Weems, Lord WeemLord BAUR,
Mr. Hoscuson, &c. &c. The Council seotinued in deliberation

111 the House of Commons yesterday evening the
public business was suspended nearly half an hour, as
the only Member on the Treasury Bench was Mr. Secre-
tary Peet., who was in active communication with dif.
ferent Members occasionally, among whom were
Lord Lovrritse, Lord BINNING, and others. The
House of Lords rose at an early hour. The Loan
CHANCELLOR, after sitting on an appeal, left the House
at four o'clock, and did not return until near five. It
was inferred from these circumstances that some
postant business occupied the attention of Ministers. •
The Resolutions fixing the scale of duty on imported,
wheat passed the House of Commons last night with
out a division. A proposition, however, of the Minis-
tars to increase the rate of duty on barley, excited sur-
prise and opposition. Mr. Secretary CANNING had
stated, that whenever the price of barley was 925.• and
under 395. the duty upon every quarter should be
1.0. Last night Mr. C. GRANT proposed to fic the
duty at 12s. A division took place:, but the major ty
in support of the increased rate was very great, being
21.5 to SS. In like manner the duty on oats is to be
increased : a tax of 9s. is to be imposed whenever the
priCe in the home market is 20s. The rate of duty
originally mentioned by Mr. Secretary CANNING was
7s. when the price of oats was 21s.
A Masquerade was last evening given at the Argyll-
rooms. To say that it was by far the most spirited and
entertaining that we have witnessed this season, would
be saying very little, and would not by any means
do justice to its merits. At the same time it would
not be saying too much if .we designated it as among
the best. which we have ever witnessed at these
rooms. The persons who were engaged to dance qua-
drilles were thus far, at least, useful; they infused
spirits into the dull characters, and added additional
gaiety to the more sprightly. The characters, which,
in most 'masquerades, should rather be called the
dresses, did not last night walk about like the figures
of a painter set in motion; but acquitted them-
selves at least tolerably ; • while a sery amusing,
though not a very scientifit, ballet, produced L•undet
the superintendence of Mr. 'Humtitt, 'varied 'the
scene, and was a•telief and gratification. The masque-
ras.e was conducted by *.CHARLIE WRIGHT, and 5t
cer manly did him very great.crecht in every-way. The
rooms were very !Nun crowded, and ao one aepeared
