There appears another article in the Times of this
morning, the tendency of which is to prepare the public
mind fora recognition of Den Mio UEL by the Govern-
ment of this country. It is in answer to an acute and
well conceived letter, signed a Portuguese Emigrant, in
which the writer insists upon the justice of a public de-
claration on the part of England, that she will abstain
from all intervention between the disputants for the Por-
tuguese crown, and allow fair play to both sides, until
the quarrel is decided. "We claim the protection of
the civilized laws of nations," says the Portuguese Emi-
grant, " in the contest we shall willingly enter upon.
We want to wage legitimate war against the Usurper, and
from Europe we only look for the aid and force of public
opinion in our favour ; but from our ally England we
claim that she should cease her intrigues, or negotiations
as the Ministry are pleased to call them, and their at-
tempts to reconcile conflicting interests ; for we never can
be reconciled to the monster Mfu ti EL." All opinion, how-
ever, upon the equity of such a declaration as is here
called' for, the Times disingenuously avoids. He blinks
the question in a spirit utterly unworthy of his high cha-
rector as a liberal journal The indignant feeling which we
suffered to escape us when handling his former argument,
drew from several friends of that print—both in writing
and in conversation—remonstrances upon the preci-
pitancy of our interpretation. It was contended for
the Times that he was merely employing a ruse de
guerre—a feint, to cover his real intention—which, after

all, at the bottom, was to promote' the cause of righteous-
ness and Donna MARIA. Such finesse, however, we
. must now tell the Times, is too fine for the unanointed
optics of an English public, who like things to be what
(hey seem. • not to seem what they are not. Truly, it is
estrange manner of advocating the rights of the oppressed,
to rack one's ingenuity for arguments to palliate and
exam" the oppressor ! In one breath, to say we wish well
to the just reclamation& of the injured ; but if the insulted
Sovereign and her exiled adherents do not look sharp, we
shall turn about, and recognise the rights of violence !
It ought to be•Srst shown that you have afforded a fair
opportunity for those reclamations to be pressed—a clear;

stage for those rights to be battled for—the justice of
which you so candidly acknowledge : and even ,then,
your recognition of triumphant villainy would be false in
principle and ignominious in practice. •
But you have not afforded that fair opportunity, and
that dear stage. On the contrary—professing to be
neutral—you have interfered actively on every occasion
where interference could be exercised, to the great discou-
ragement and injury'of the QttEEN'S .pose. You
issued an edict of .dispersion against the little knot of
patriots who were collected at Plymouth, and who were
already forming among themselves a sort of neii-egg of
the future restoration : you, gave them their option of
being broken up and scattered over the interior of Eng-

gland, or of embarking from your Inhospitable strand,
for a far home—and precarious help—in the Brasile.
When they attempted to steer upon Terceira, need we
recal the treatment which the gallant band experienced--
the xestrality which Captain WALPOLE exhibited-r-no
doubt in illustration of the principle of noe-interference,
SS understood and acted upon by Lord ABERDEEN ?
But does the Times call this neutrality ? Does the
Times now come forward, and.essert that we have for-
borne long enough while two contending parties have
disputed a throne, with which it has - been always
our interest- as it is our desire—to be in amity and
alliance ? Why, we have not forborne at all. .ny-oimr-
awing--by connivance—by diplomacy, and by piece of
arms—we have done our best to disinherit MARIA, and.
establish the usurper in her place ! The Times is now
acceding to the cause of usurpation, and bringing the
weight of his great influence in public opinion to bear
upon the innocent and oppressed. But although the
Times has been a giant hitherto, in the extent and power
of his moral influences, let him remember that he owed
his preponderance to the purity of the principles for
which he battled, far more' than to any resources of ta-
lent or of money—however amazing- -which lie might
command : and that when it shall be once demonstrated
that he has forsaken those principles, the public wilt
forsake him. Really, we do not desire to be acrimonious
in bur expostulations, especially with one, qui tom put-
dire de republicd 'Remit : but we will ask, can any thing
be more derogatory to its former bright career—any thing
more repugnant to the spirit of a free press—any thing
more politically flagitious than the line of conduct which
that supreme journalist is now pursuing? "If the emi-
grants"—hark to his language of to-day—"have anymeans
of overthrowing the existing power, and regaining their
rights, let them try. We wish them success. But it
seems now to be becoming mere Quixotism in as to
say that we will be banished with the Portuguese
emigrants, because they cannot regain their coun-
try." Why, SIR, they would have regained their
country—regained it long ago—but for the uncandid
shuffling, and clandestine diplomatic tampering, worse
than• open hostility, with which they have been encoun-
tered by our Government, under the name of neutrality.
And as to " means of overthrowing,". they had the
MEANS, but Lord ABERDEEN took care to wrest them out
of their hands!
" If PEDRO cannot unseat him, and the emigrants =-
not unseat him, and we have no right to unseat him, what
follows ?—that we are to pout, and not look at him, and
not speak to him ? How absurd !"—ln answer to
these accumulated fallacies, it may be remarked ;
first, that Don PEDRO could, and would, have
unseated him, if we had not interfered to prevent
DonPenao's doing SO: if we had not sent Lord STRANG..
FORD OR the dis graceful mission, which 'he so well ac-
complished. Secondly, the emigrants could have unseated
him single-handed—but we intervened to prevent them,
Thirdly: that we have not only the right to unseat him
ourselves, but are bound to do so not less by former
Treaties, than we are by late acknowledgments: and not
more by all these together, than by the simplest consi-
derations of humanity and justice.
The Times ought to blush deeply for such an infamous
and immoral argument : such a desertion of principle—
such a bolstering of the cause of wickedness and despotic
power, against all the better sympathies and convictions
of his understanding.
At a late hour this afternoon we have been informed
that there are advices at LLOY D's from Constantinople
of the 25th June, which say that " the Mary, PLAIN,
is just arrived at S.iyrna, after having had her cargo of
rice taken out of her by the Russian squadron block-
ading the Dardanelles and had not the Courier of
this Embassy been on board as passenger, it is said she
would have been sent to Egina.
" The French and English squadrons are off Tenedoe.
The Favourite, DEN NY, sailed on the 15th for Odessa-.
which vessel, with an Austrian and a Sardinian, all
laden, have had special permission to pass into the Black
Sea ; and the Helen, LONG MAN, now here, has been
loaded with the same promise, although the passage is
considered as officially shut as before."

The Courrier de Smyrne contains a letter from Canes,
of the 24th May, which says :

" The Governor Harm, probably by order et the President of
Greece, has attempted to take the field against Mutapha Pads,
and to get possession of some villages in the plain. He eelleete4
for this purpose about 4.000 men, wit► whom he appeared on the
mountains near Mersa and 'Ceramic"

This extract is followed up by the details 4f. minus
skirmishes between the Greeks and Turks, the result'of
which. -although of little importance—was unfavourable
to the Greeks.

The Prussia* State Gazette to the 22d instant has
this day been received, by which we perceive that, not-
withstanding all the precautions that have been taken to
protect our commerce in the Levant, we still continue to
be sadly annoyed by pirates. The disorganised condition
of Greece, and the feuds between the Turks and Greeks,
are productive of the most deplorable results. Crimes
are occasioned by extreme misery, and we are told that

" thefts and secret murders are frequent, and both Greek
and Turkish inhabitants disappear without its being pos-
sible to discover what has become of them." The fol-
lowing are the details :
" The French brig. La Volga., has been sent by Admiral Ro-
seate! to Suds, to protect the French ships on that coast. Since
the 16th May, the Austrian corvette, the Upsia. ►as been cruising
between Capes Hatch and Spada, to protect the Austria' and
Tuscan merchantmen. Notwithstanding the presence of these ships
of war, the Greek schemer, stationed off Annko, pursued the Tan.
eyed, an English ship, laden with corn. boa nd from Soda to Canes.
Accounts from the city of Candle say, that the want of Egyptian
troops was greatly felt there. Suleiman Packs has sot sullcient
power to suppress the crimes to which the lower classes are driven
by their extreme misery. Thefts and secret murders are fropteat,
and both Turkish and Greek inhabitants disappear without its being
possible to discover what has become of than. A fortnight ago
an Egyptian skip, with 37 Greek slaves. women and children,
sailed for Alexandria, though Sukhumi Pacba opposed it."
