HAMBUieH PIPERS.

. • FRANKFORT, MAY 26.
'The latetit acc9unts Isom the Principalities say, that
• its lippeared more certain that the operations of General
Geismar, in Little Wallachia, would be confined to
se aintlining his position at Kalefat, and protecting that
province against the incursions of the very numerous,
lash garrison ot Widdin.
atelioits of 'very serious engagements in the vicinity of
are still spread, in which the Turk+ are stated
:tp7basse fought wi:h desperate fury, and a corps of Rub.
sian 'cavalry. of 5,000 men, a ith lieces of horse w-
inery, are said to tire suffered severely,-but all these
accounts bear evident marks of great milt gei ation ; and
• a+ ti.ey :neither give date nor particulars of those actions,
and no Russian account whatever has been published
kstsiecting them, the:news wants explanation and con.

At Yarns aro' S zeboli every thine is in the best con-

place very strongly, and placed batteries rising above
each other on all the peighbouring heights. Several
ships hive akrired here from Sizeboli, with some hun-
dreds of Bulgarians on board, who had fled to that
place because the whole sutrounding country as far as
Adrharrople is laid waste, and there was nothing more
left for their subsiftence. The. Russian fleet is said to
be is the Golf of Sizeboli.

There seems' to have been some obstinate fighting

LISBON, May 14.
The Consul of France has by his representation suc-
ceeded in getting an inquiry blade respecting the im-
prisonment of MM. Dubois and Guillemot, two French-
men, wbo have been long detained in confinement.
The examination has been very favourable to them.
However, the Commissary of .Police, Mecambo, who
superintends the investigation, unwilling to lose his
prey, has ordered some works of the Viscount de Cha-
teaubriand and M. Cassitbir Delavigne, which were
found among their papers, to be translated into Purtu•
guese. When he has ascertained whether or not thee
be any relation between the writings of these men of
letters and the charge on which these two unfortunate
Frenchmen were imprisoned, he will pronounce judg—
ment. Meanwhile, it is probable that the Marquis de
Croi will bring the petition of M. Dubois before the
French Chambers, for the Marquis himself desired to
tale charge of it, and it was on his formal assurance
that it should be presented to the .Chambers that he
s—
was entrusted with it.

The inhabitants of Oporto, shacked by the late exe-
cutions, manifested theirgrief by shutting up their shops
and keepiirg in doors, but the aathorit;es, offended at
the lugubrious silence which reigned . throughout the
town, on a day which they celebrated as a triumph,
sect patrols of cavalry into the streets,, to compel the
people to open their shops and windows. To render
the tete more complete, 77 pessons just art ived at Lis.l
boil have been arrested ; they are accused of having,
lamented the judicial assassinations of 011orto. The
fury of some Miguelites is carried so far, that a Monk,
who preaches. to the Court, and is the confessor of the
Duke de Cadaval, as well as a great friend of the Mi-
nister, has published a pamphlet entitled is The Beast
flayed," in which he says--,6 The Constitutionalists.
mutt be hung up by the feet. The days are long, and
there is time. for the rest. As the harvest will be bad
this year, the people ought to be cobsoled by-providing'
them with some fresh meet." By way of carrying this
atrocious project into execution; the Tribunal of Lisbon
has condemned 17 Officers to be hanged. Their names
are not yet officially published, but Geoeral'Claudino
and Ceunt de Subserra are said to be amonithem. If
this system continue. it is certain that the Bower oP the
nation will perish on scaffolds orin dungeons.
Qs it is wished that no Constitutionalists should be
allowed to escape, emigrations are now looked after
with-the greatest vigilance. The police is constantly
on the watcb. A net is as it were cast o'er the whole
at I'ut;ugisl. It is thus thought that the enemies of
D o Miguel will be i:revetited from increasing abroad,
while
.the executioners diminish them in tile interior.
;emit taken to reissue, fioletisbon and OPorto such
;.Portuguese as do not belong to these towns, and when
they arrive at their domiciles they are 'A rreiteJ. What
gives confidence to Don Miguel, and enables him to
send a force to the Azores, is a promise he is said to
have received from tee ling.r f Spain, that in use of
reed the garrison of Bao.jos shall enter Portugal to
support him.
We are assured that M. d'Acosta Montelegre has been
more successiul in the important missi m on which the
Spauish Guyer went sent him to Lisboa than his pie-
decessor, M. de Campuzano. M..d',Acosts, it is said.
has obtained the consent of Don Miguel and the 42:iten,
his mother, to the marriage of that Prince with Donna
Maria -(14 Gloria. This important communication is

MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR
MAY.

---ass.--
. .
Accounts of the. crops from all parts are generally
favourable, the exceptiposbeing as few as could possibly
hkeipected. The " sere and yellow leaf'' of the wheat
was fast recovering its natural and seasonable bloom,,
1 during the mild pm of the month, until the late check;
and it is yet said, upon all, good and well managed
lands, to be a snoop plvstwell aud.thickly stockrd.
Upon those Ot interior descriptions and quality, as has
been often ;ere lied in these reports, our expectations,
are not sanguine; in all'lands the common opinion is,
that harvest, whatever may he its'sticcess, must in-
evitably be• late. 1p must poor districts a'small portion
of the to.iligig rkfle44,l two Ploughed sp, and barley
substituted. All illWearly sown spring crops rue, said
to exhibit .the Wrest prospect; pad perhaps, ott an
average of seasons, early sowittg is attended with die
least risk: . .
