Flanders and German papeis ar rived yesterday. The following is a brief summary of their principal contents: The measures which brought about the restoration of the public tranquility at ids bon on the 17th ult. and e tabled the gnv eminent to revoke the irregular proceed ings of the military power on the 11th preceding, are chiefly attributed to Col. Sepulveda, who commands the light le gion. This distinguished officer, by his remonstrances and admonitions, ma’e the army sensible of its dangerous conduct, and once more ooedientto the civil autho rities ofthe state. GeneralTexeiia.'who redeemed a moment’s hasty vi deuce by a prompt and sincere expression of his re gret, was on the 18th commissioned by 'he Junta, to frame and organize a milita ry Council for the improvement and su urintendance of the Portuguese army The first act of this Council was to re commend a distribution of medals for good onduct amongst the the officers and pri ' ales, who had been already designated “ .y his Majesty as deserving of those ho unrs. The election of Deputies to the Cortes was to take place immediately; ■he instructions and details for their ar! '•angement being extracted from the new Spanish cope. It is plain that the govern ment found itself compelled to expedite i his important measure, that the Consti- Uition might be placed forthwith in a state of active operation, and that the people should feel themselves committed irrevok ably to reject or resist any orders from Brazil injurious to the liberties of Portu gal. The statements from Vienna of the 26th seem to assert that Count Bellegarde is to be despatched on a species of medi atory mission to the Neapolitan govern ment. The Congress is said to have ter minated its deliberations; the result of w hich will be made known by the Allied Sovereigns in a formal state paper, ad dressed to the people of Europe. This report, however, which comes from Leip sic of the 23d, is contradicted by subse quent advices from the Austrian capital ot the 27th ult. brought by last night’s German mail, which give a more precise detail of the political communications said to have trken place at Troppau, and in- Bulge a more definite prospect of their leading to a satisfactory and amicable is sue than any accounts which have yet j transpired on the subject ofthe Congress or its designs.
