Nay more; some secret agents stole into
the city and in the darkness of tho night
threw stones against the palaee of the ab
sent Cardinal Bishop. The ill concealed
trick was exposed by the arrest of the
gtiilty persons. It now became impossi

Tho cholera at Paris was on the in

STILL LATER.
The packet ship Canada, Cnpt. White,
arrived on Tuesday from Liverpool, hav
ing left-that pot t as late as the 19th' tilt
to which date the editors of the Mercaa*
tile Advertiser have received their regular
files, including London papers to the 18th.
and Shipping Lists to tho 17th inclusive,
• The arrival of Don Pedro at Oporto is
confirmed. We give below the particu
lars of his landing, &c. so far as had bccu
received. Some of the papers express
disappointment at tho manner of bis re
ception, and doubt the, statement cf the
destruction of a Portugnese regiment
which declared in his favor, though no
doubt existed of his ultimate success.
The London correspondent of the Liver
pool Advertiser says. “the most important
ftnt'er to be decided by the next .advices
from the scene of action is, whether the
Spanish army notv open the frontier and
amounting to upwards of 30,0**0 men will
march to tho succor of the, usurper.. Let
ters from Lisbon speak in th? most confi
dent manner of the intention of tho Span
ish government to .assist Miguel with their
whole force iu case of need,' and invoke
the support of the northern powers, in
case that Knclnnd and France should at
tempt to chastise her for this interference.”
„ The accounts from llohaud concur in
holding out but small hopes for the enn-
tinullnce of peace—they ^represent the
gorernmeijr as being determined t« at
tack Belgium without delay,.which on
her part will no, be unprepared for the
onset—it is likewise believed by the best
informed porsons that the French Am
bassador. Marsha) Mortier, h:*s withdrawn
from St. Petersburg,which .would iu some
measure account for the ftrsnge obstina
cy of Holland in holding out against the
conference, and her apparent determina
tion for the commencement of the discus
sion, ultimately to appeal to the sword.
The-last pans papers contain accounts
of the surrender of Acre to Ibrahim, son
of the Pacha ofEgypt, (of Navarino no
toriety;) of some disturbances said to have
occurred among tho Russian'troops at
Wars.iw;of considerable naval preparations
going forward at Cherbourg, and of the
increase of the cholera at Paris.’ In eve.
ry other respect the French capital was
perfectly tree from excitement.
The dcolcft Reform Bill has rccoived
the Royal assent.
Paris remained perfectly tranquil, but
measures of precaution were still in ope
ration there. Considerable naval pre
parations contsona to be made at Cher
bourg.
The heat of the weather in*?avis had,
in some measure, moderated. On the
4th July the temperature reached between
£5 and 88 degrees of Fahrenheit. On the
15th the tame thermometer marked only
SO degrees. The cholera continued on
the increase.
The African Erpedition.—The vessels
comprising the’expedition to Africa were
•till detained at Liverpool. In order to
obviate the risk of carrying the cholera to
Africa, the vessels are to remain at Mil
ford for a week or ten days, to ascertain
Ihntthe infection is not on board.
LANDING Of DON PEDRO AT OPORTO.
On the 14;h, the Firebrand steamer ar
rived at Falmouth, from Lisbon, whence
she sailed on the evening of the 9ib,
guns ofSt. Julian are in particularly good
order, and the men have be^n well trained
by firing at a mark. Migutl's troops at
Lisbon were strengthening aod building
batteries and outwotks, both above and
below Lisbon 4 , which are now perfectly
useless, as far as respects the musing of
Don Pedro, who will enter Lisbon by the
4)portorond.

object of Don Mignel not to risk an action
without the certainty of victory, and to

Holland and Belgium.—The King of
Unhand hag given a final answer to the
requisition of the Conference respecting
Belgium. lie has absolutely refused to
recognise the independence of the Belgi
an, on any otherterms than those vt the
closing of the Scheldt against them, the
annexion of Limburg to Holland, the re-
tentipu of Luxemburg, and an appoint
ment nl a much larger amount of debt to
the Belgians. It is taken for granted that
tlits iiltimntion will be rejected hy the Con
ference. Indeed alt accounts from Hol
land now breathe of immediate war. The
King, and with him the nation, appear to
consider that they h ive, by this communi
cation, thrown down the gauntlet of defi
ance to the Conference, and they were
preparing to abide the resitlf. Hostilities

WELL DONE OLD CHATHAM.
When the occaiion ha* needed the voice of
this county, she has never been found wanting
in thn expression of opinion,but has always yiv*
freely and fearlessly.x The crisis had ar
rived, when it was expected that she would ho
beard oo tho subjects, which ore now agitating
the state, and on the doctrine which has recent
ly heen stalking through her, liko a demon de
structive in it* coarse: but it has been met by
the patriots of tho stato, and its progress, we
tra<t, completely arrested.
The people ofthis county, according to pro.
vioas notice, assembled yesterday at the Ex
change and in numbers nnt equaled by any
meeting ever bold bere.previoxsly. The room
was crowded to over flowing, end every citizen
present,with but an ex-reptiea,which made una
nimity the more striking, was animated b y the
high,yet temperate resolve, to resist any at
tempt to sever the bonds of our glorious and
happy Union, while all were ardent with the de
termination to oppose, by all the means which
became them ae men and citizens, the oppress
ions of.tbe unjust sad odious “system of protec
tion.”
NoHiScatioo, like du.«t« was thrown to the
wind, end ere the meeting uwdpd there waft hot
one found who held to thh doctrine.

was deceptive as promising peace, and calcu

Inw. null nnd void: the State was the pro

thnfifthb proceedings of the proposed Conven

The question ou the passage of the resolu

four dissenting voices—two of which were boy*.
'Vs cannot but record tho remark made
yesterday by an old veteran of the Revolution,
who know* the value of the Union by-its cost,
ani from the benefit which it now affords to
millions of happy people, lie said, while ex
ulting over the results of the mooting which
hud jpst j^journed—and to attend which he had
rode several miles that morning, bringing with
him oil those patriotic feelings which supplied
the place of the blood lost in tho achlbvemcnt
of our liberties—- 4 Union now and forever—
the daT after tor the Ncllifiers*!* The
manner in which he uttered it. drew forth the
applauso of several who were around him; and
it appeared to afford as much pleasure to the
old vofdior ns the return cf the day r.a which
America was declared free and independent.
At ft meeting of the CUIsens of Chatham

To cuitipuvs iiiat Committee, wuo retired—
and after a short absence, returned and offered
the fmiT'AMig Resolutions;—
The citizens of the county of Chatham
impressed with a tense as well of the op
pressions to which they, in common with
the inhabituofu of the Southern Statcs.are
subjected by tHe lawsImposing duties on
imports, auof the dangers with which the
public security, thb stability of our insti
tutions and the existence of the Union aro
uprcinncy
them, would be subversive of the de.]ib<*r-
ate and sovereign will of the people aa ex
pressed in the Constitution of the sftjte,
anti-republican in its tendency, destruc
tive! of tho fundamental principle of demi
crude government, for “the very idea of
the |M>wer aqd ri|ght of the people to es-,
tabhsh a government presupposes the du
ty of every individual to obey the estab
lished I'overuiuoui,” rcvojuiiuuai v ill its
character and would have a direct tenden
cy, by bringing the stuto government into
disregard and impotency to prostrate the
rfdiief bulwark of the riglits of the people
aud of the sovereignty of the statqs and to
precipitate the states into a consolidated
government. If the individuals who shall
compose this convention can thus set nt
naught the established guvt-riimeui, upon
whom will their acts be obligatory or
whose authority can they be regarded a*
exereisineT
Heeuuse the power proposed to be con
ferred upon said Convention is^wnhout
Jimir -unrestrainedby any restriction whe
ther i»l the Constitution or of law, but a-
hove and beyond either,not subject to the
adoption or rejection of the people and to
; l>o exercised by those wlio, not returning
to them for re-election, are not responsi
ble to them, and might,under the impulse
of passion’or of factious intolerance, be
employed in the enactment of bills ol at
tainder, in-the deportation or other more
grievous punishment of the generous aod
con tiding citizens of ib$ slate or for oth
er purposes however despotic nr in other
modes however tyrannical.

said convention would not be according to
the forms of the constitution nor in obedi

tahiished law, and who could nut therefore

in behalf of the good fkoflf. of die State**
—an assumption of the exercise cf power

ver the interests by which that system has
been hithetto sustained, and with an Ex

the most illustrious defender of our liber

and frieudly to our interests aud who holds
that it is the duty of government to con
fine itself to “equal protection and equal
benefits" and that tlut which ad ministe rs
is not to be maintained nor our Uniou
