Extract of a letter, dated Lisbon, Sept. 14tli,
1832: —With regard to Don Pedro's cause, it
will be successful if any decided success is ob
tained to encourage the people to declare them
selves, for all who think are on his side, hut they
think at the same time that liberty is not worth
the risk of a prison ora halter in its attainment.
It is a notorious fact that all the families of Opor

behave well enough.
London, Thursday Evening, I past 7.
The official accounts from Paris, dated Tues
day, state that the Duke de Broglie had nut at
that time signified his acceptance of the offer
which had been made to him to join the ministry,
but that it was fully expected that his answer
would be favorable. On M. Human, who was
absent from Paris, Marshal Boult has positively
reckoned. M. Human is an able financier.
Should anv thing, however, occur to prevent or
delay his becoming Minister of Finance, the
port folio will probably be held ad interim by M.
Thie s, who also enjoys a high reputation ns
financier.
The letters received by the Flanders mail this

The KingofSpain, although not out ofdanger.' j

his death, and of a disputed succession between
his daughter and Don Carlos.

Falmouth, Oc.ober 6, —The rumors of I
war which very generally prevailed last week 1

of a speedy disturbance of that pcac« which now 1

with tiic exception of Portugal, which is merely
a domestic quarrel, and will, we dare say, be
settled without embroiling any other power.
The King of-Spain, when be was thought deal,
only slept, and be s ill survives, but in a very
languid s‘utc. His recovery, however, seems
probable ; but, should his death ensue, it hardly
a: pears iikoly, fruin present appearances, that
anv serious dispute would take place respecting
tin. s recession to the throne. The question at
issue be'w.cn Holland A: Belgium—the naviga

At home, there is little to engage the country

the spirit of the reform bill, which is, to give
the people good and cheap government. Irel an 1

Funeral of' Sir 1 Valter Scutt. —The remains
of Sir Walter Scott have been consigned to the
tom!), amid the unfeigned regret of thousands.
We uu lerstand that cards had been issued to
nenrlv 3UO persons, who almost all attended the
funeial. (>nc o’clock was the hour fixed on for
tlie time of meeting, an 1 for about an hour ai
terwards carriages of different sorts and gen ie,
men on horseback continued to arrive from Ed
inburgh and other parts cf the surrounding
country. The company having partaken ol
* jfreshments, adjourned to the library, where
tliev heard an eloquent and affecting prayer Iron*
Principal Baird; and a lit ie afer two o'clock
the melancholy procession began to move from
Abbotsford to Dry burgh Abbey. -Vs the long
funeral train passed through the villages and
hamlets, one universal fending of deep sorrow
pervaded ali classes. Groups of people were
| assembled at different par s of the road, and on
elevated points from which a view could be ob
tained. Most of them were in mourning, and
many standing uncovered. Ihe s'reels at Mel
rose were lined on both sides with the* inhabi
tants in mourning, and uncovered. The shops
of this and other towns were shut, and the sign
boards were covered with black.
Before the body was committed to the earth :
the English burial service was read by the Rev.
J. W illiams, rector ofthe Edinburgh Academy.
A little before five in the afternoon, the last m
fice.s were performed.
The spot in which Sir W .alter Scott is laid in
is the north wing of the splendid ruin ol Dry
burgh Abbey, now, alas! containing a more
splendid ruin than i's*dl. Here is laid theboiK
of Lady Scott, and also that of his uncle. The
situation is secluded, romantic, and quite con
genial to all the ideas of the deceased.

FROM THE FALMOUTH (EXO.) HERALD OF OCT. 6.
Defeat of Don Miguel's Troops in an attack
cut Oporto. —The long expected attack on Opor
to by Dun Miguel's army was made on Saturday
29th ult. which day is held sacred by the Catho
lic Church, in honour of St. Michael, afer
whom the usurper is named, was therefore tho't
propitious of victory against Don Pedro. On
the two preceding days a number of movements
of troops had been observed in the Migucii e en
campment, all of which gave note of the intend
ed attack, to repel which Don Pedro and his
commanders made the best disposition of their
forces. The night of Friday was dark and low.
cring and before day break ram fell in torrents.
Nothing daunted, however, by this ominous
dawn, the Portuguese tloops commenced the at
tack on Don Pedro's line of entrenchments, di
recting their attention principally to that portion
entrusted to tie* defence oftlie British and French
brigades, under the command of Co!. Hodges
and Col. the Count de 8. Leger, upon which
they bore down in a compact mass. They were
received with great coolness and determined bra
very, but the unexpected arrival of about 500
men to the ranks of the attacking party, who
came suddenly upon the French brigade under
cover of a large vineyard, compelled them to
give way. Falling back, however, on apait of
the 10th cacadorcs, they returned to their for
mer posi£tm driving the enemy before them
with great slaughter ; hut the immense body of
troops,amounting to 5000 or 6000, together with
two pieces of artillery, w hich the Migueiite gen
eral brought against these gallant bands, obliged
them again to retire, which they did into a
square surrounded bv walls, in front of tiie bar
racks occupied by the British batnllion. The
contest now raged w ith terrible fury, and a mo
mentary deficiency in the supply of ammunition
; to the British and French troops, gave the Por
i tuguese an opportunity of committing great
! slaughter in their ranks, among which the otfi
| cers sullen d severely, both commaders, Colonel
I H°dges and Count deSt. Leger. being wounded,
Co!. Burrell killed, and Major Shaw and others
wounded. The arrival, however, of three com
panies of the lOlh cagadores commanded by the
three privates, two of them son? and one a cou
s n of Count Foculia, enabled these brave fol
lows to beat back the enemy even beyond their
first position, leaving behind them a howitzer,
two nine pounders, a great number of killed and
wounded, and about SO prisoners- While the
tray here raged so hotly, the attack was direct
ed with trreat vigor against the lines to the left
ot the Foreign and Bri is i position, which was '
the centre, on the Braga Road, and a smart fir
ing ot shot and shell was kept up from the bat
teries Oi. the \ ilia Nova side of the .river. But
every wnere Don Pedro’s troops met th.e enemy
with that cool determination, w hich is the ear
ncs: ct victory against an impetuous assailant.
Fill about 4 o’clock in the afternoon, the con
test was maintained with vigor. About this
time, the firing oi Don Pedro’s guns proved too
hot tor the enemy, and they retreated beyond
the reach of their shot, and thus ended for that
day all attempt to dislodge the constitutional ar
mv fiorv? Ojx>r‘o,

I killed, wounded and prisoner : and Don Pedro's
i is supposed t<> amount to nearly 500. among
whom are n great many officers, nearly the
whole of the British and French officers being
either killed or wounded. Among the killed are
Lieuts. Burton and Sopor. The purser of 11.
M. S. Asia, received a fatal wound while view,
ing the action from a station within the lines.
Throughout the day Don Pedro dis; laved great
coolness and decision of conduct, and before In
had returned to his palace he went through all
the hospitals, and d rect* (i toe necessary atten
tions to bo paid to the wounded.
After the battle, about CO of Migu Ts men
came over to Don Pedro, from which it was in
f rred that they had determined on being on the
winning side.
When the Confianco left Oporto on Monday
morning, no renewal ol the attack had been
made bv Miguel’s troops, though it was fully
exp- cted, but in perfect confidence that Don Pe
dro's forces would again repel the assailants.
In case, however, of the wors‘, Ins majesty s
ships Childers and Ores'cs were in perfect rea
diness, in front of Oporto, to give nsss'ance &
protection to the interest of the British. One
or two arrivals of reinforcements an .1 military
stores, ammunition, horses, <Ac. had taken
place, very opportunely, previously to the at
tack of the 2btb, and further arrivals were dai
ly expected.

I .onDots, Fcpt. 20. —Tiie Dutch Ministers,

of the game which they have been playing, in
delving the great Powers of Europe t<> a con
test. They long calculated on flic forbearance
of England, and on file chances of disunion a
vnong the members of the Conference, I hey
now sec that both England and France are in
earnest, in resolving to terminate this state o!
paralysing uncertainty and hostile preparation,
which entails upon the parties all the expenses
and disadvantages of a war, without its excite
ment or its glory.
Accordingly, we are informed in a letter
from Hague, on which wc place the greatest re
liance, that when his Majesty lately called a full
divan, and demanded their decision on the ques
tion of peace or war—strongly urging the po
lice of war himself-—he found but a very par
tial and imperfect echo of his own opinion. The
majority of his Ministers (among whom was the
able Minister for Foreign Affairs, Baron \ er
stolk van Nyevelt) declared against the war,
and, having been requested to reconsider their
opinion, next morning sent in their resignations.
His Majes'y, seeing this turn of affairs,-did not
accept, these resignations, and has checked his
warlike ardour tor the present, without, how.
over, abandoning the hope of being able still to
embroil Europe.

ViKWA, Sept. 13. —An English courier from
Constantinople arrived here yesterday, and will
set out again this morning for London. It is
said he is the bearer of A-" A-hes from the
Turkish Ministry to the Fu m government.
The Porte, in consequence <u ;■ critical situ
ation in which it is placed by the events in .Sy
ria, seeks foreign assistance. If it is lefi to its
own resources it may be overthrown, as the E
gvpfians are masters in Syria, and seem dispos
ed to push their conquests further. It is affirm
ed at Constantinople that the English Mims'sy
is inclined to interfere in favour of the Porte,
and that the Charge d’AtTaires has officially an
nounced to the Porte that lie English govern
ment is willing, if the Sultan approves, to inter
vene, in order, by its mediation, to assist in put
ting an end to a war so ruinous to botii parties.
This notification it seems makes the Porto hope
for the assistance of England against the rebel
lious Pacha, and has led to the abovementioned
communication to the English government.

At the Manchester Temperance Society's Tea
11, , y. I .
I Ur
\V ant much indebted to the politeness of the
Editors of the “Old Countryman” fora scrap of
the Manchester, (Eng.) “ Times” of June llith,
i containing an account of “ a meeting of upwards
400 members and friends of the Manchester
Society in the Exchange buildings, where they
partook” of a beverage of tea instead of alcho
fic drinks. The several speeches are given,
including some from Rev. Clergymen, &c. but
we pas> them all fur the present, to give the fol
lowing which will be found highly instructive, as
well as graphic A amusing. By the way we could
wish that temperance meetings in this country,
were of oner held on the plain republican plan,
so common in Old England ! in which the com
mon laborer vies with the statesman, the jurist,
the physician, and the prelate, in illustrating
the benefits of the temperance reformation. —
A ar- York Daily Advertiser.
Robert Rimmer, a journeyman dyer in Sal
ford, then addressed the company to the follow
ing effect ; Mr. Cheerman, and ladies and gen
tlemen : I have been as drunken a fellow as was
ever known in Manchester or Salford. Before
I knew of the temperance societies, I was with
out employment —1 could get no work ; and 1
was like a poor lost sheep wandering about in
the streets this day twelve months: and had it
not been for the temperance societies I should
have been like a vagabond in the s'reefs yet. 1
was out ofemploymen , I sab', and not a mas
ter in our trade in the town would give me work.
But there was a master silk dyer, who had
started in the countrv, an I ! thoufo’ 't would to \
a piacV where I was not known. I went and
axed the master for a situation. He axed me
what trade ! was; and I said a silk dyer. He
said, “Do you know any of our men ?” I said
“Yes,” and i told him the names of some of the
men; but then he began to be rather frightened,
for fear 1 should be fo«nd out. Then lie went
to inquire into my character, and when lie had
gone I thought to myself my job's done, —
(Laughter.) He soon came back and said, i
“We don't want any.” J then went up to the
man who had gone with me there and said, “ I
may as well be a thief ns a drunkard, I have
found that ou*. This man said he had been to
a temperance meeting in Campfield, and bad
heard some very good discourse from a gentle
man from Eccles. I said “ what's the meaning
of these temperance meetings ?” and he told me
I that the) were meetings of non wyo hud ie-|
frained from ardent spin's. I said to him, “ w htn|
is there another meet ng?” and he said he could*
not tell mo. But ns we were going up to Sa!-|
ford he saw a bib on the wall, and he read it tor 1
me. for 1 could not read myself. But now I canl
read a bit. ( Applause.) —The bill said that tncl
meeting was in Broughton road, on J ucsJay?
nex*. I went to it and liked it very well. I at-|
tended the next meeting in Gravel-lane, and IjR
liked that better: an 1 next was in|
Bloom-st. and 11 ked tuat better still. Fhe next-SI
i nice!ing was in Canal-st. Old field road, on thejj
i Is' of Angus’ last, and there I was convinced i ?
u as a good thing, and prayed to Go 1 to keen nu-S
to it. (Cheers.) I thank God I did do so. An|
old master of mine was the Cheerman that nect.l
and said to me, “ Rimmer, if thou had taken my|
advice three years ago, thou would now have*
been woith one hundred pounds; and 1 bawl
since found his words were true. Now 1 caul
draw mv wages corniortibix, and whenl getting
money I put it in my wife's lap, because 1 know |
; that she will lay it out to the bes* • vantage.l
(Applause.) For twenty-six or t cuty-seven|
years before 1 joined the Temperance Society.|
she was plagued with a drunken husband, an ig
she lias not had one moment's comfort only siocel
1 joined. Before I joined I had neither tab!os|
nor cheers, nor any pots in tiie house; -at now p,
1 have plenty of cheers and tables, and a goong
fio pig in the core. (Laughter and applause.)-|
] have left off*drinking altogether, except a gnlg
of beer at my meals which 1 send for to the loins
and Jerry shops. Those Tom and Jerry shops,|
Sir, are a big nuisance: men are rolling aboutg
from them on Sabbath mornings, and they a rep
worse places, Sir, you may depend than the gin||
shops. (Laughter.) 1 thank God that Tempe-g
ranee Societies were raised in Manchester.
Yesterday twelve month—no, Whissnntido is||
sooner tin’s vear, I think—but last V\ liissun Sun-||
day but one 1 was on Kersal Moore drunk, with-g
out siio ‘S, coat, or hat. —A csterday me and mvL
wife went arm in arm to Christ Church, and itp
■ was a blessed day to me. Who will then say j|
there is no benefit in Temperance Societies 1 I*|
thank God I have joined. I have now a goods
coat on my back, an 11 have the honor to say i
is paid for. (Cheers and laughter.) Everyg
thing 1 have in the house is paid for, and 1
never without a shilling in my pocket. (Re-S
n ove l cheering.) My Misses says an 1 declares ®
she; n ver knew comfort in the house, until 11|
joined the Temperance Society, and she telis tin
neighbors she is sure she has got a new hushan
(Laughter.) I pressed on her to come to the|j|
1 tea party, for I said I shan’t be comfortable there®
w idioiit thee ; but she goes out, you see, a wash-|S|
ing for gentlemen, and she said she could noU3
come, but she said 1 shall bo quite comfort ahSu||
when thou’rf. out, for I shall know where thou
art, & that thou will come home sober. (Cheers.)||
I will say this of her, there is not a better wifog|
in tiie land. (Cheers and laughter.) I have®
served in the army years, but I would not
illo,ooo to part from the Temperance regiment.||
W hen my wife used to travel on the
cart, the other women would say ‘ come
Rimmer, and take a glass of gin.’
wife would never fake it, but she said it alwaysfe

may depend on it. (Loud Laughter.) I think||
that the happiest ncet of my life that 1 signed llic||

son about 1* years of age; and a man who worksjra
with me said to me one tl iy, “ wliat benefit hasp

said to him, “ ax our Charley what benefit
is.” He said ; “well Charley, is there a nyfej
benefit in these Temperance Societies?” —And*?
Charley said, “ aye, 1 get more bn id and H:ecsefo

she has done her work she gives me a lesson. I,v
have found it easier to engage a downreet drinkerji

The speaker afer a few’ more remarks retired pi
from the platform.amidst thunders of applause.

Indian Murders. —A party of Fottawatimles,®
who had encamped at the mouth of Eel River,S
got into a drunken frolic, and one of tiie men be-a
came offended at his squaw, and it seems tb.atS
i nothing would satisfy him but the forfeit of hers
life ; he seized his knife and gave the fatal s’ab.
It entered under the right arm and penetrated to
the heart. The hardened wretch had scarcely
effected his purpose until he met the fate he me
rited—the avenger was at hand : a squaw, relat-j
cd to the murdered one, seized a tomahawk and!
buried it in his head. He fell lifeless beside hiss
murdered companion. —Indiana Paper. I

In the House of Representatives, Mr. Ryan intro-g
duced f hc following preamble and resolutions, which!
were read, ordered to be printed, and i |r l ade the order|
of the day for Thursday next week .
Whereas the Tariff Law of the laot session of Con
gress has not satisfied the just ex pectation of the peo
ple of the Southern States. Whereas the recent at
tempt to provide a remedy for the evils which we suf
fer from the Protective System, by a State Convention,
nut only will probably be abortive,, but is likely, if per
i-fisted in, materially to disturb ype public harmony, and
ilessen the moral force of the State. And whereas the
I Resolutions adopted by the T Jelegates of a minority of
ithe People, and which are about to be submitted to the
|wnole state for ratificatic are j n several respects of :
|most objectionable character, it becomes the duty of;
|tho=e who are the unc jestionabic representatives of the
Ipeople of Georgia, to interpose, for the purpose ot!
|rranqutlliz.ng the public mind, and concentrating the
ipublic will, by tk c recommendation of a course of po
ilicy which they trust will obtain the general approba
tion oi the cc mmunity. Therefore —
i Resolved , That, if a Southern Convention is desira
gble, it is expedient for the State of Georgia to invitt
Bthe States of Virginia, North-Carofina, South-Carolina,
g Alabama, Tennessee, and Mississippi, to concur with
Sher in electing delegates to a Southern Convention,
llwhich shall take int» consideration the Tariff System
■of the General Government, and devise and recommend
■the most effectual and proper mode of obtaining relief
gfrorn the evils of that system-.
33 Resolved, That in order to ascertain the sense of the
gPeople of Georgia on this subject, the following plan of
Ha Southern Convention be submitted to them, and that
|ltheir votes on the same be received at the appointed
Sgtirne and places of voting for county officers in the se

Whereas divers portions of the Pxople of Georgia
M. h.ave assembled in Convention (or the purpose ot taking
>Sinto consideration the grievances under which they labor
iflrom the protective system, and to devise the most dfi-
end proper means of relief, at which the following
have attended as Delegates from the counties
to their respective names, viz :
0 Be it therefore Resolved by the Delegates of the pen.
yUle of Georgia in said Convention assembled, That the
f /Federal Government is a confederacy formed by the
Jjstates composing the same, for tlie specific purposes cx
ggpressed in the Constitution an for those alone.
m 2. That every exercise by the federal government, cr
Kby any department thereof, of powers not granted by
K|the Constitution, notwithstanding it may be tinder the
ilforrns of law, is, in relation to the constituent states, a
Egniere usurpation.
M 3. That a government of limited powers can have no
right, to judge in the last resort, of in
use, or abuse, of the powers conferred upon it,
SSsince that would be to substitute for the limitations of the
||constitutiona! charter, the judgment of the agents who
® were employed to carry it into effect —to annihilate thoso
by a power derived from the same insiru
wimem which created them.
M 4. That the Federal Government, is a Government,
||the powers of which are expressly limited by the Con-
Institution which created it, and can therefore have it
right to judge in the last resort of the u* s
abuse of those powers.
M 5. Tiiat it is essential to a confederated Govcrnirten
prlte powers of which are expressly limited by the Con
institution which creates it, that there should exist some
where a power authoritatively to interpret that insim-
to decide in the last resort, on the use or abuse ot
tijihe authority, which it confers upon the common aptru
_ lof the confederating states : that such a power c^ nn( ’ 1
Sjjiieiong to the agent, since that would be to subfunt
fghis judgment for the constitutional limitation, any 1 _
I[ in tlie absence of a common arbiter expressly design
Jed by the constitution for this purpose, each st,lte ®
‘such for itself, and in virtue of its sovereignty is nec -
isarily remitted to the exercise of that right,
i 6. That tlie several states composing this Lnton
? a t the adoption of the federal constitution, free, ?o 'q'
Ireign and independent states : that they have not oi vcs "
a eel'themselves of this character, by the relinquisnm*-
>of certain powers to the :-'deral government, havings-
Lociated with their sister states for purposes e
with the continued existence of their own
f griiriiial freedom, sovereignty and independence. ,
g 7. That the act laying duties on imposts, passed
f . gJuly, 1832, as well as the several acts of which j
r®is amendatory, in »> far as it transcends the
greveuue, and is intended to operate, and does oper
;lf substantively for the protection of manufactures, m
fSercise of powers, not granted by the constitution,
..Spluin and palpable violation of the true intent, nira pr c jj
! «and spirit thereof z that the said acts cannot be jn Si -
funder the power regulating commerce with fi? T V^ rin _
wtions, since to regulate is not to destroy ; and
