FOREIGN INTELLIGE.NCE.

We have received Madrid Gazettes to the 3d instant; they-
contain no news, nor do they present any intelltence from
Portugal of a date later. than that we have already given. The
following,. extract of a private letter is, however, interesting.
We have no doubt that much of the intercepted correspondence
published by the Time; was a forgery :
At a court of ministers held yesterday, and presided by the
King, the Count d'Ofalia proposed the question of sending a
.representative to Lisbon, in case Dom Pedro should be suc-
cessful. This question was strongly opposed by his colleagues,
and particularly by M. Zea, who declared that his intimate
relations with the Duke of Wellington prevented his coming to
a resolution on that point until he had received instructions
from his grace. On the other hand, it has been decided that
in case of Bourmout being defeated, he should be received in
Spain.
A system of rigour seems to be the order of the day. A word
spoken in favour of Dom Pedro is sufficient for a man to be
arrested by the Celados, who, for some days past, are found
in every place of public resort. Count Torreuo, who lately
arrived at Madrid from Paris, has received orders to leave it
within three days, and return to France, unless he prefers
going to some town in Spain, where he would be in a state of
confinement.

Whilst the Madrid Gazette of the 3d publishes a bulletin an-
nouncing that the King is perfectly restored to health, private
letters of the same date state, that although less suffering, Fer-
dinand is still confined to his room.

The Indicateur of Bordeaux gives the following from Madrid,
under date of the '2d instant :—" Captain Velasco, who was
charged with the task of discovering the men who robbed the
courier of the English ambassador, has succeeded. Out of five
who were known to have been engaged in the outrage, three
have been taken, one has been killed, and one has made his
escape. It will now be ascertained whether they were common
robbers or whether they were political agents. As a reward for
his activity, Captain Velasco has been promoted to the rank
of lieutenant-colonel. In the intercepted Portuguese corres-
pondence, as will be seen on referring to the Messenger of
Aug. 20, M. de Saraiva states that Baron Neumann, counsellor
of the Austrian legation, declared that the governments of the
three northern Powers highly applauded Dom Miguel's reso-
lution of taking Marshal Bourmont into his service. The
cabinet of Vienna has conceived this allegation worthy of au
answer, and has charged the Austrian Observer with the task,
which it has executed in the following terms :—"Amongst the
pretended letters from the agents of Dons Miguel, said to have
been found at Lisbon, and published in the English journals,
is one, in which mention is made of Baron Neumann, and of
conversations he had with Marshal Bourmont. We did not
copy this letter, because we doubted its authenticity. We are
now authorised to declare that all that relates to this subject
is either an error of M. de Saraiva, or an invention of those
who published the correspondence. The contradictions appa-
rent in the letter of M. de Saraiva prove either that it must be
surreptitious, or that it is full of errors. We ask, how could
Baron de Neumann desire M. de Saraiva to introduce 111. de
Bourmont to him, when he bad been previously presented, as
the letter itself states? How could Baron Neumann signify to
M. de Saraiva, through the secretary to the Spanish embassy,
that he wished to see M. Bourmont immediately after his
arrival, since it is said, in the same letter, that the intended
arrival of M. Bourmont in London had been announced to
Baron Neumann by M. de Saraiva himself? Would not it
have been more natural that Baron Neumann should have
made that request directly to M. de Saraiva ?
Finally, the letter states that Baron Neumann declared that
the three Powers highly applauded Dona Miguel's resolution
of taking M. de Bourmofit into his service. This never could
have been said by Baron Neumann, because neither his own
government, nor those of the northern Powers, were acquainted
with this intention, and certainly Baron Neumann could not
have taken it upon himself to snake such a declaration. Under
these circumstances we are fully warranted in doubting the
authenticity, or, at least, the accuracy of the whole corres-
pondence.
