FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FRANCE.
(From Galignani's Messenger of Wednesday' last.)-
Queen Donna Maria and the Duchess of Braganza, with their
suitesTh,
left Paris yesterday, and were to sleep last night at Rouen.
veiling they will reach Havre, and reside at the Hotel de
oAmirante, which has been prepared for their reception. The
riot arrived
vessel that is to convey her Majesty to Lisbon had
if a when the last accounts left Havre. It is said that
the nY circumstance shoUld occur to retard the embarkation of
of gng Queen, she will take tin her residence at the Chateau
u, belonging to the King. •
r." lAre are assured," says the Courrier Francais, that the.
Duke
of a projected marriage between Donna Maria and the
ti ", of Leuehtenberg is unfounded. The Duke, who is affec-
aco!iately attached to his sister, the Duchess of Braganza, will
hisLompany her to Lisbon, but will afterwards visit Italy, and
retuento Bavaria to his mother, and the other members of
fam The Temps,. in giving the following extract of a
:r of the 22d iiastant from `roulort, observeS, that it is calm-
la. d'to induce a belief that there is some foundation for the
!quit or the intended marriage :—" A telegraphic despatch
la,:fied Toulon at ten this morning, enjoining all the military
jet_u naval authorities to exercise the utmost vigilance, and take
IruY possible measure for preventing the
.y.oung Duke of
htenberg, son of the late Prince Eugene, from-landing on
French territory, in violation of the faws of 1816 and 1830,
terdicting the entrance into France to all the members of the
lataily of Napoleon the Great."
c The Quotidienne refers to the conversation in the House of
UMmous as proving the increasing, influence of the monarch-
ltd.' principle in the affairs of Europe, since it shows that Eng-
land has been compelled to play a secondary part to Russia in
the affairs of the East, which contrasts strongly with the decided
course pursued by the Canning administration nu the Greek
hquestion, and the successful embassy undertaken to St. Peters-
urgh by the Drike of Wellington, who did-not refuse to serve
I! country, although under an administration of a political
ur different from his own; this increase in the influence of
Russia, and decrease in that of England, must, it argues, be
alnributed to the fact of the former having put itself at the head
ofmonarchical interests, while the latter has enrolled .kerself
r the revolutionarvhanner. It then refers to the question
Portugal, and remarks that there is some difference between
toaeglmo_st ironical manner-in which Lord Palmerston referred
by tel redro, and the frank and open sympathy anticipated
e Journal des Debate, but accounts for it by Observing that
a.l English minister, even although a Whig, has always suffi-
tt'ent regard for, and appreciation of, the interests of his coun-
rtu prevent his committing himself positively -on a poin
wt,
Luch the re are man to siipPose may not be settled
tecisely in the way the Cabinets of St. James and the Palais
'Ial• desire. The Doctrinaires on the -contrary, have no such
prudent reserve;- not because they brave the danger, but be-
tause they are-toablind to 'see it.

SPAIN AND PORTUGAL..
YEtviis, Aug 'l2.—A cOrp's ot troops is in a forward state of

4.•._-,uNcuat. (ISLAND OF MADEIRA), JULY 26
.—We knew as
VT:Y as the 17th the unfortunate events of Portugal. The
hrlgantine Tejo, which arrived, brought an account of the un-
ta2PY naval combat of the sth instant; but this melancholy
'vs has not ,for a moment disturbed the tranquillity of the
eliv?l, or altered in the least the loyal dispositions of the faith-
,„ inhabitants and soldiers, who will be always ready to repulse
74:1.!.he attempts of the enemines of the King. Their accidents
'fd vicissitudes of war do not dishearten us, for we know by
..9:,erience that constancy- and loyalty may defy.the caprices of
;.:11,:tune• This town, and the whole island, are in the best pos-
thele state of defence, and should it be attacked it will not be
first time that Madeira will have had to resist and to over-
come the criminal attempts of the enemies of our Monarch.
The
the ~ Gazette of Madrid gives, under the date of. Santarem,
list of decrees promulgated by Don Pedro, and which have
tu.cen already communicated to the public; the following. reflec-
(l.'nls are added by the correspondent of the Gazette. These
a„.,eerees have created an extraordinary
.degree of exasperation
,:.oegst the inhabitants of this province,. being as they are so
oirectty and manifestly at variance with the previous profes-
;ions of the Duke of Braganza and his Generals ; their pro-
essi."' of peace, concord, union, forgetfulness of the past,
respect for private property and private opinions, and above all
veneration for the sacred faith of our fbrefathers, seem bu-
ried in oblivion.
... .
We have had to remark the violent expulsion of various per-
sons holding public office, and whahave been replaced by others,
contrary to all law; but what has excited the liveliest indigna-
.l°n, and what we were inclined least th"expect, are the impious
and sacrilegious decrees relating to our religious institutions
and to our clergy. Through a total disregard of all canons and
!oncordats the Pope's nuncio is expulsed under false pretexts
from the capita, of a Catholic state; the eollation of benefices,
long confirmed, is annulled; the bishops and archbishops, whose
notnination has been duly sanctioned by the sovereign pontiff,
are dismissed from their dioceses, and-the latter-thus• exposed
to all the' fatal effects of a schism; monasteries a-re suppressed
and holy orders prohibited ; all monastic and charitable institu-
tions destroyed; in fine, all the regulations of the church sub-
jected to temporal authority, and that in virtue of simple de-
crees; by the arbitrary act of one man; without reflection or
Previous consideration ; without hearing the parties interested;
Without hesitating one instant; in fine, when about to subvert
the legal forms which from time immemorial have been re-
spected in this country.
The Gazette of Madrid contains no mention of the health of
the King of Spain.
