F.xtract of a private letter of a recent date from Rome:—“The defeat of the Portuguese rebels has only served to redouble the ardor of their friends in tile sacred college. At a meet ing of the Apostolical*, held in this capital the 3.1 January, it was resolved that circulars should be sent to collect money in all the mon asteries and catholic congregations, for the purpose of sending it to Span!.

It "'as believed, howev er, that he dissembled, and that the whole af fair was a preconcerted plan, founded on tho removal of the members of tho government, who are gone to Aguira, in order to seize on tho reins of the government, a conjecture which the well known connexion between Ypsilanti and the (Jrivas reuders probable" The damage susUitltd by the Dutch expedt citement which is daily increasing. General Saint Jean, we are assured, calls for something to be done of a decided character, for he announces the desertion of a great part of the regiment of- Arragon. As it respects this regiment, I can assure you, that when it lately left Saragosa for Valencia, it was so lit tle favorable to the absolute government, that several liberals who were pursued m »b« city, quitted it with this regiment, which protected them on their route until their arrival on the frontiers of Portugal. It is said, besides, that the Spanish troops sent in pursuit of the de sorters of the regiment of Arragon, passed the tier, for B itavia, in thoeafts it encountered, is frontiers, and were repulsed by the Portuguese said to amount to two nnllions offforins. c„n.o,m,„„ Q lu, e A private letter of the 31st ult. front Rrussels eay-—“The Spanish captain, Dun Valdez Al- g'lt-r, of the guards of kpig Ferdinand, who, while at Paris, had taken part in flic intrigues that brought about the Portuguese rebellion, ami who was exiled from France, has been a- boat a week at Brussels. It is singular that this individual, who must be ranked among the riii'i-coiistitutionulists, frequents here several Spanish exiles, who are banished from that country, for their attachment to the constitu tional cause. Brers--Is papers state, that tho coronation of the emperor of Russia as king of Poland was to take place early in the spring at Warsaw, with great military pomp and a succession of brilli ant fetes. Agents of the viceroy ef Egypt at Lausanne have been endeavoring, it appears, “l>v the most seducing promises,” to engage in his service young men who had finished their time in the French army. Nobody, however, wo arc told, had been caught by their harangues, and they hail met every whore with marks of hatred and contempt. Paris, Fobruarv 8. An extraordinary comler"was sent _o(T from the Austrian embassy ou Monday night, for Vi enna. The despatches of which ho is the bear er, aro believed to relate to the antipathy man ifested towards his excellency, on account of his refusal to give the Frcucli marshals their titles. It seems that fresh representations were tnado a few weeks ago to the court of Madrid by the cabinets of St. James, the Tuileries, and St. Petersburg!! combined. Tho object of them was to bring Ferdinand to measures calculated to allay party spirit, and satisfy the w nts of Spain. ’ These representations are sn - d to have been repubed with some degree of haughtiness. This intelligence is rumored to have arrived at the Russian embassy at Pa ris two nights ago. A letter of the 1st instant from Marseilles, states that on 3d, lord Cochrane was to give a splendid ball, take leave of his friends, and im mediately after set out for Greece, “We arc assured,’’ says the Courier Fran rob, “that the count do Villele had a confer ence with M. Bonnet, the reporter of the com mittee on tho Press Law, in which tho former declared that if the amendments resolved on by the committeo were adopted by the charftbcr, the law would bo withdrawn, seeing that it is impossible to govern France, if tho system laid down in the ministerial project be chang ed in tho slightest degree. A lottcr is also said to have been written by M. Bonnet to one of his friends, in which the honorable deputy ex presses his sense of the difficulties of tho task he is about to perform. -Placed between the ministry and public opinion, lie docs not dis semble that there is little chance of satisfying every body, and much more of satisfying no body." * Paris, February 9. Tho report of the committee upon the Slave Trad . Law Project will be made to the cham ber of Deputies tomorrow. The three commissioners appointed Don Pod re, to accompany the Infant Don Miguel to Brazil, have arrived at Paris. It is not known whether they will here await his royal highness, or go to Vienna, or elsewhere to meet him. Tho Pope has augmented his Swiss guards by a hundred men. A letter from Aviguon represents the state of the manufactories in that town to be in a most suffering state, aud the distress among the work- int-u as extreme. Wo learn by intelUgencc of the 2d instant, from Madrid, that several persons suspected of favoring the insurrection iu tho environs of Velez Malaga, have been executed in that pl-.ee. The Austrian Observer contains the follow ing article:—“Accounts from Corfu, of the 1st of January, say, that the grentsst anxiety pre vails ut Napoli di Romania; the several chiefs who are in ihat fortress are engaged in contin ued quarrels, which often end in bloodshed.— Those who arc tho most embittered against Cach other aro»Fotatnara, commodore of the ci- - tidel, and the brothers Griva, from Missnlong* iii, who command in Fort Patamidi. On the '13th December, they fired on each other for Several hours. The unfortunate inhabitants sought refuse in the churches, and afier the fi fing ceased, assembled in the market place.— Notwithstanding the bad harvest last year in Sweden, no scarcity is fell, even in the pro vinces that suffered most in consequence of measures taken by the government to facilitate (lie importation of foreign corn. Paris, February 10. An English cabinet courier passed through Paris on Wednesday evening, on his way to Madrid, with Mr. Canning’s reply to the des patches by which Mr. Lamb announced to him the second invasion of the Portuguese refugees. Tint Journal rlcs Debuts says upon this sub- (t/U.— YTC Hutt; iwuiuii *u Lolrerw <•»«♦ *1*® English government is far from being satisfied with the distftis.nl and trial of general Lotiga; that it demands fuller satisfaction and further guarantees of the Sjdtoifli government; and that a contention of a more serious nature than any that has preceded it is on the point of breaking oat, and which is calculated to excite fresh apprehensions relative to the maintenance ofa good understand.ng botwcon the two pou rs on ilio one hand, and between the cabinets of Madrid aud Lisbon on the other." The .If mortal Ilnrdeltiis mentions a letter from Ciudad Rodrigo, which states that three Portuguese generals and a multitude of priests and monks had arrived in that place. The of ficers tin | privates, it is adJoJ, have remained in Portugal to taka advantage of the act of am nesty and submit to the constitutional govern ment. Tiin Academic Society of tho Lower Lo.ro (Nantes) held a meeting ou the 1st instant, when it was resolved that a supplicatory ad dress against the Press Law Project, should ho sent to tho kin constitutionalists. Mr. Lamb, the British minister, is preparing to depart for Lisbon. Tho day before yesterday, lie gave his fare well dinner to the diplomatic corps. He leaves bis secretary as charge de affaires. He ap pears to have had but little faith in the protes tations of the Spanish ministers, and less in their ability to comply with their promises. Paris, February 13. They write, under date of the 27th of Janu ary, from the frontiers of Poland, that the en voys of Eugland and Austria were daily ex- l>e«to<i ot Petersburg, to assist in the confer ences respeclng the affairs of the east. The cabinets of Enfl.aiid and Russia are on tho best terms, atul itlis believed that a second cam- Tiic Dutch papers contain tho following notices of the ships of the Java expedition:— “Tho companies of voluuteers that were ou board the Wassenxr, and assembled at liar* lent, have been supplied with new accoutre ments, etc. We leant that of the crow of 25S men, only 7 peiished, and of the troops 15 or 16, so that the whole number of the victims of this misfortune appears to he at most 23. The agreeable news lias been received at Groningen that tho Waterloo sailed from the place it was lying off, Borkum, since the ice has baiUed c* very attempt to get near it. Several vessels have since put to sea, to g» in search of her, and take oat the troops. Wn hear that Sho ins on board pilots both for tho Weser and Elbe. Tho king has appointed a commission to inquire into the causes of the disasters that occurred to these vessels.’* An unfortunate occurrence happened at Rouen a fisw days since.—Mr. Drake, ot Lon don, about 50 years old, a dealer in snakes, ar rived in tho morning at a hotel with the inten tion of setting out in tho afternoon for Paris— he had three rattlesnakes and several young crocodiles. Notwithstanding the precaution he had taken to protect them from the cold, one of them was found dead; the two othors wore carried into tho eating room, where the temperature was milder. Mr. D. stimulating them with a stick, found one aiono gave signs oflife, opening the cago to ascertain if it were dead, tho serpent bit him in the left hand; D. gave a shriek, without lotting it go, he then placed it iu the cage, where it gave him ano ther bite in tho hand. He sent for a physician, and in the mcau while rubbed his hand with which was in the yard. Two minutes af ter the accident he made a ligature on the arm Ten minutes after the accident, the doctor ar rived; he cauterised the wounds with hot iron, and gave Mr. D. olive oil internally. At 11 in the morning ho was better, but at 8 in the evening ho died. A rabbit was bitten by one of the serpents, and died in a few minutes. Lisbon, 25M January.—(Private Corres pondence.)—A courier extraordinary arrived yesterday from Madrid to the Spanish embas sy. The count de Casa Flores leaves here, and his secretary fills the office of charge do affaires. Tho force of the Spanish troops as* scmblcd on the frontiers of Portugal, amounts to 9061 Infantry, and 1242 cavalry* total 1090§ —of which 2441 infantry, and 367 cavalry, are under the orders of adjutant general Radii —another brigade of 3364 infantry, and 875 cavalry, are under the orders of adjutant gen eral Sesti—also another brigado of 3856 infan try, arc under the orders of adjutant general Unidl. To these troops must also bo added those which compose the army of observation, which aro at present collected in the villages of Trux- illo and Talcvcirn, under the orders of lieuten ant general Sarsfield. Such an assemblage of forces on the part of the Spanish cabinet, will necessarily cause a corresponding concentration of Anglo Portu guese troops ou the frontiers of Portugal. Madrid, 29<A January,—Three couriers extraordinary, arrived yesterday, one after the other, to the miuister of war. One came from Gallicia, and had been despatched by the gen eral Egui, the other two came from Estrama dura, and have been sent from Vulontia by tho general Saint Jean—and contrary to cus* tom, the greatest silence has been assumed re* spooling tho despatches of these couriers.— General Eguia has announced, it is said, a continuation of partial disturbance among bis troops, and moreover a great ferment among tho liberals, particularly in that part of Galli. cia, in the neighborhood of Ferrul, Corrognc, and Vigo, in to much that the general is appre hensive that those villages will commit some overt act in favor of tne constitution, unless sufficient garrisons are kept up to check the ex- paign against lersia will not take place. Hos tilities betweej the two empires have been sus pended on acount of the inclement seasons, aud the Rus^aii troops which were on the march to the /rentiers of Persia have becu or dered to halt. Tiie neds from Greece is not favorable.— The friends of the Greeks flatter themselves that the Christian powers arc forming plans for their emancipation; but others, better ad vised, fear that the nego nations have no other end in view, tlwn to place Greece under the dominion of some such hospodar, as prince Milosch. However, according to letters of lOih January, from Constantinople, the last campaign was rather favorable to Greece.— AH Lividia, as jyell as tho east and west part of Greece, were in a state of insurrection: the people from Colo to Salona bad taken up arms. The government also was reorganized on the 10th November, at Aigina; on the 15th, the re venue of the country had been established, and on the 17tli, measures had been adopted for the suppression of piracy. The government had also declared the blockado of the island of Ne- gropont, and intended to adopt the same with respect to Candia. Lord Cochrane was ex pected in the Archipelago. LATEST FROM EUROPE. New York, March 23. By the packet ship Janies Cropper, captain Graham, from Liverpool, English papers to 17th February, and by the ship Cadmus, cap tain AUyn, Ire in Havre, Paris journals to the 16th February, have been received. The corn question has been again postpon ed, to the -nth of February, in consideration of Mr. Canning’s illness, which was so far re moved as to leave little doubt that on that day the right honorable gentleman would be able to bring the question forward. It is confidently anticipated, that sir F. Burdett’s motion respect ing the catholics will be also postponed, should Mr. Canning not be so fur recovered as td re sume his seat before the day fixed for its dis cussion. Information had been received from Brigh ton, that Mr. Canning was recovering from his severe illness. From the following remarks upon this intelligence in the Courier, the read er can judge of die space which this distinguish ed statesman fills in the eye of the British pub lic at this moment:— “If this distinguished statesman could know the absolute dismay which was inspired by the supposed alarming character of his illness, ho would understand how all classes of his coun trymen appreciate him. It was not the ordi nary anxiety which is naturally felt for the health of an eminent public man; but it was the mingled feeling of fear, lest we sltoukl sus tain an irreparable loss, and of anticipated sor row, for the premature extinction of such a master-mind, that pervaded every bosom. At no period in the history of this country, since the death of Mr. Pitt, has there been a conjunc ture of affairs pregnant witli consequences of greater magnitude and complexity, both abroad and at home, than at the present moment; and, as in the case of Pitt, their issues, at least of the former, are in tho hands of one man.— This is the conviction of the country; and hence the deep anxiety which the country must feel, at the most distant prospect of such a ca lamity os the one we have glanced at. Tho announcement, consequently, which we made on Saturday, and which wo rejoice in being a- blc to repeat today, will be received with sin cere pleasure throughout the empire." It is said that sir Walter Scott will receive a large pecuniary augmentation from die pub lishers, in consequence of tho “Life of Napo leon." extending to eight volumes. It is doubt ed whothcr the work will be published in Lon don, in less than three months from the present time. The late William Gifford left a fortune of twenty-five thousand pounds sterliug^accumu- lated as editor of the Quarterly Review,'and as the writer of political essays. It is said to bo the intention of the British admiralty, to build six steam ships of 4he larg est size, capable of carrying one hundred car- ronade guns of increased calibre, and to be propelled by two engines of two hundred horse power each. „ ' The Liverpool Chronicle of the 17th ult, says: Letters from Madrid received in London, by the French mail on Thursday, aro to the 2d inst. and the political intelligence which they contain is as usual, very scanty. One tetter, however says tho Gloue, mentions that Mr. Lamb has sent severnlVsry unpleasant remon strances as to tho reception of the Portuguese in tho Spanish territory, of the leaders, and that the relations of the two countries appear still unsatisfactory. It was believed in Madrid, guuse Constitutional army hud found it necessa ry to fall back; and that several new bands ofin- surgeutshad appeared in the south, but in small parties; lint from the manner in which all these details are given, we think, they are not believ ed even in Madrid. Late accounts from Malta, received at Liv erpool, 16th February, slide that peace had b*.n ronelu/tpd between Spain and Algiers. Gen. Morales, well known as the command er of the Spauish forces in South America, a* gainst tho patriots, has been appointed Cap tain-General of the Canaries, and was to em bark from Cadiz, with 1000 or 1200 troops to take possession of liis new command. There have been serious disturbances in Carlisle, arising from the distress of the manu facturing population, and the Military had been called out. • k is reported that Sir Humphrey Davy, will soon # resign his seat as President of the Royal Society. Commodore Hamilton boarded and took a piratical corvette at Hydra, cut out several vessels which had been captured; and obtained the restoration of three English cargoes. Greece.—The news in the French papers and which must be received with caution, is favorable to tho Greeks and there is no doubt, froth alt the accounts, that Karatskak.it gam ed a considerable advantage in western Greece, having starved and slaughtered a force of 2,000 Turks, who had suffered themselves to be blockaded in a village. The Greeks are re presented as wholly defficient in discipline, and in leaders of spirit, yet the enemy suffers great losses, and no where produces quiet submission. Liverpool, February 16. Parliament.—The ministers are likely to have warm work of it this session—called on loudly by the people to reduce the price of coru, and almost menaced by the great and in fluential owners of the soil, who have an inter est in keeping up the price of bread and bo-^ r roughs. Then there is the ticklish question of %9 Galigni's Messenger. the catholic claims, which must be disposed of one way or other, or ministers will subject themselves, x'ery justly to the reproach of tam pering with a matter of. vital importance to the safety and Well being of the empire. They will have also to meet and answer the remonstrance of the shipowners, who, after complimenting Mr. Huskisson with a superb service of plate, for bis advocacy of free trade, now call upon that minister to retrace his steps, and put matters in statu quo. The assessed taxes, the game laws, the im pressment of seamen, the Irish emigration, and the tithe question, with many other subjects of great magnitude, will try the patience of the parliament and of the people, and conspire to givo unusual interest to the present session. Tho important subject of impressment of seamen was, we find, incidentally introduced on Tuesday evening, when the report of the committee of supply on the navy estimates was produced. London, February l6. t Accounts hive been received,' this morning, from Spain, through Paris, by which we learn that a small body of Portuguese rebels had marched through Tras-os-Montcs upon Opor to, aud were at no very great distance from that city on the 30th ult. It appears, they took advantage of count Villa Flor, being employ ed in covering Beira, to make this unexpected movement. Letters from OpOrto, however, of as late a date os the 4th instant mention, that count Villa Flor had immediately moved down to cover the city, and had reinforced the garrison, so that all apprehensions as to the ul- tiniatc operations of the rebels had ceased. The accounts from Brighton, this morning, state that Mr. Canning, though not free from phin, was gradually advancing towards recov- cry, '/ (by the CADMUS.) The Journal du Commerce, of February 16, contains the following paiagraph: “One of tho journals of today says, that in the council held last Tuesday, the question was agitated wheth er the chambers should bo transferred to Tours, Blois or Bruges, in order to removo it from the influence of the capital; but tho motion was adjourned, as well as that for the' creation of new peers. It adds, that the regiments of the guards in garrison at Rouen, Orleans, Com- peigne, &c. have received orders to approach the capital. , The Etoile (a ministerial paper) denies the first part of these statements, but takes no notice of the other." Of news, these papers are unusually barren. The Constitutioncl says, a great number of the electors of Paris, greatly alarmed by a suc cession of rainisterialacts and projects which threaten to deprive them of the rights guaran teed to them by the charter, are at this mo-, ment signing a petition to the king. The Russian ambassador had issued cards of invitation to the number of eight hundred or nine hundred, for a grand ball to be given on 22d of February. The marshals of France aro all addressed fay their titles and not by their names, os was the case when invited by the Austrian ambassador. Tho prince royal of Denmark and suite, ar rived at Marseilles, on tho 6th February, and departed on the 9th for Toulon. M. Pupicr, a missionary to the East Indies, and a professor of tho Chinese seminary at Pu- lopinang, is dead. Discoveries in Egypt.—It is at length pla ced beyond a doubt that the Nile of which Bruce conceived he had discovered the source in Abyssinia, and which .the Portuguese had seen and described in the sixteenth century, is only a tributary stream flowing into the true Nile, of which tho real sourco is much nearer to the equator. For this information wo are indebted to M. Cnlliaud, a French Traveller, who accompanied the predatory expedition of the two sons, Ishmacl and Ibrahim, of tho Pa cha of Egypt, into Nubia, and who, in conjunc tion with M. Lators, has made known a new region in tho exterior of Africa, more than 500 miles in length, and extending to the tenth de gree of Northern latitude. This gentleman has likewise determined the position of the city of Meroe, of which he found the ruins in the Blue River,) precisely in the spot where ly I the ' 1 Anvillc bad placed them upon the authority ancient authors. A venues of sphynxes and !1 lions, propylea and temples in the Egytia, style, forests of pyramids, a vast inclosure fo rc , cd witli unbaked bricks, seemed to pour out it this place tire existence of a large capital, ajj may serve to to elucidate tho much agitated', U still undecided question—“Whether civilij,' tlons followed the course of the Nile from Etk. opia to Esypt, or whether it ascended from L gypt, to Nubial" Extract of a letter from Italyr— <f Wlii] C ; , j Rimini and Pesaro, I heard some curious Jtj.1 ries concerning an individual whom the elur I ter of incidents has linked with British histori! You will immediately rccal to mind the n^jj of Bergami. This famous personage is a verrl conspicuous character on the Eastern coast fll tho Adriatic. Will you believe that, besides I an estate at Ravenna, tho splendid villa occa.| pied by the late Queen Caroline, and a placeasl Pesaro, he has purchased no less titan twelve I farms, jn the neighborhood of the last mention.I cd place? M. Bergami, or rather Baron Ber.

I low the villa to bo shown to an English familyJ which presented itself at the gate for that pur.f pose. The good people of Pesaro are quit, I at a loss to conceive how the Baron (who is fl.1 so a Nnpolitan Count, by purchase,) could haul accumulated so much wealth, though they can] account very easily for his possessing such a I profusion of plate and jewels. It is needless to] say that this person is not associated with by ny of tho gentry or nobility; indeed, he ap.1 pears to have found his level, and to bo univc;.] sally regarded as a mere vulgar sensualist.”- that the rebels were in a great force on the Delta, formed by the Babr-el-Abricl (the northern and eastern frontier; that the Portu-!

Accordingly,! on the 27th of June we sailed from Guayaquil,! and ou the 30th took our departure from St. £.[ lora, (an Island at the entrance of the bay): on the 4tb of July anchored in Essex hay,] Charles’ Island, on the Galiapagos’, and t correctly described by Commodore Porter, isl his Journal, that nothing is left for the anxioat voyager who follows him. Novelty, and a de sire to get a stock of tortoises, prompted ut i anchor at this Island, both ofwhicbobjectsb ing fully accomplished in four days (having t ken upwards of 300 terrapins on bon'd) on i 8th, we put to sea,.shaping a course for W« ington Groiipe '(or Marquess Islands) situates in 140 deg.

At Massadiu*] setts Bay we remained eight days, during whid time the ship was visited by almost the \vho!e| population of that part of tho Island. Tbtir| surprise and admiration appeared insatiab!c:| nor was it until long after tho ship was ua’crp way, that the King, and many of his subject, took their final leave of tho Peacock.' There were numerous applications among the your.gl men to accompany us to America, two of whoal wo now have on board, and may probabty.r gratify you with a sight of them. Massachusetts Bay, you will remember, i the port Commodore Porter occupied with the I Essex, and her prizes, during the late war, h:i| transactions thereat comprising several cbaptertl of his very interesting and useful Journal. I'l is, therefore, uatural to supposo, that evory A‘l merican naval officer must be highly gratified I in reviewing a scene rendered conspicuout ul history, by tho unwearied gallantry and «»•! summato skill of a brother officer. The t^'l parts of Fort Madison aro still visible, and the| wall that encompassed Porter’s camp remaut-'.l though in a dilapidated state; but thej name of Porter will live in the recollection < the Nooahcevian, as long as memory scrv^J them.
