LATER FROM LISBON.

We are again indebted to arrivals al
Boston, for the latest intelligence from
Portugal. Capt. Smith, who left Lis
bon on the 18th and the Tagus on the
18th ultimo, gives information that no
general attack had been made by eth
er party since the 5th, but that frequent
skirmishing had taken place. 1t ap-
pears from the tenor Of the advices,
that the force Of Don Pedro within the
capital was too weak to make an ct.
tack without the city, and yet too
strong to warrant an attack upon him
within it, by his usurping opponent
Similar to his is the case with Don Mi
guel-he is too weak to force his way
into the capital with any prospect of
success, and yet too strong, in his ex.
ternal position, to fear an attack with.
out the walls. In this attitude a petty
warfare may be carried on for a long
period, without any decisive results;
and in the meantime the fair face of
Portugal must be marred, and her re-
sources exhausted by this fraternal dis
cord. Don Pedro has possession of the
city of Lisbon, with an open water
communication; and Don Miguel pos
sesses the suburbs-the former is sus.
Il ined by his naval supplies, and the
latter by the influence of the priest
hood. A party of Miguelites obtain
ed possession of a convent on the east
side of the city on the evening of the
18th, but the next morning were dis.
lodged by frigate that anchored in
the river, and fired upon it, killing "a
bout $50 of them, and dispensing the
remainder.

the issue Of this contest must be decid.

devotees of the Pope.

RECEPTION OF MR.. CLAY.
BosToN. October 9.


Mr. Clay arrived in this city yester-
day at four o'clock. The weather was
as inclement as possible at this season
of the year; it had rained continually
from Sunday morning up to the hour
of his arrival at the fremont House.
Nevertheless, he was received, not
only with that inward and heartfelt
satisfaction and cordiality that might
be expected to pervade the People oil
this city, but with all the outward de.
monstration of respect, that his warm.
est friends could have wished. He
was accompanied to Roxbury by a
delegation of the young men of Boston.
At the Boston line he was met by q
Committee, of forty, despatched by the
Young Men of Boston, in carriages,
who received him in a barouche with
four white horses, and conducted him
to appropriate lodgings in the fremont
House, prepared for the occasion by a
committee of forty, constituted by a
general meeting of the citizens of Bos-
ton.
AT Roxbury, the committee ofyoung
men being in attendance, their Chair
man, Mr.. ROBERT G. WINTHROP, ap.
preached the carriage in which he ar
rived, and invited him to enter the
barouche prepared for him, and in
which he took seat. Thence he was
conducted, accompanied by the com.
mittee in carriages, and escorted by a
cavalcade on horseback, through the
principal streets, to the fremont House.
Every street through which he passed,
was thronged with People, who cheer
ed him with enthusiasm at every cor
ner. On passing the Common, he was
honored by national salute from the
Sea Fencibes, under command ofCap.
tam SARGENT. On the arrival of the
civic procession at the fremont House,
he was enthusiastically cheered by an
immense concourse of citizens in at
tendance.
When arrived at his lodgings in the
fremont House, Mr.. WINTHROP, on
behalf of the young men of Boston, ad-
dressed Mr.. CLAY as follows:
Had you come to us, sir, clothed
with the authority of that high office,
which il was the fond wish and earnest
effort of your fellow citizens here 10
bestow upon you, you would have been
received with more elaborate ceremo-
malls and more splendid pageant. But
permit me to doubt, sir, whether the
hearts of the People would have beat
higher at your approach than now.
Elevated office, sir, cannot indeed d.
ninish, but it can add nothing to the
respect and gratitude which your dis
inguished public services have been
calculated to inspire. The Young Men
'f Boston have carefully marked your
course as long as they have been per.
nltted to be intelligent spectators of
iuman events--they have traced it
