The follows, gis from the Loinluii Times of lhe7tli idt. i’ii*.- apprehensions of the friends of Port guse freed om, were yesterday pain fully excited by uccnuobi which reached town in the morning, that the Marquis of P-tiaiella had arrived at F dinouth, from and had brought intelligence of the total failure of Dun Pedro’s expedi tion I'he sturv wis vaguely told, au<) had multiplied vi'Tsions ; but in every as -et the news appeared disastrous.

The very positiou of the ex- FI n i-rur, may be regarded as not a w.ir r.'» for sotn - apprehension lie I tnded 0.-i i.i B:ii or y.li u!t and we find him at Onorto mi rlu.‘ 30th. instead of fighting th<* trooju of h;s brother on the road to Lisbon, In' is obliged to attack them north of tie Donro. The victory of the 33d is sand, adeed, to have been complete, hut it was followed by no results. The Mi {fie.liti-s tn still uortii of lhc Douro, and t • i npcrnil troops are fortifying Oporto. Thus three weeks have been lost for the invading tinny —the spirit of the people lias had an opportunity of displaying it tatioii of the friends of liberty—and the desertion, which was to thi> the ranks of the Usurper, has not taken place. The reasons of the delay at Oporto, in stead of a rapid advance on Lisbon, is said to be the want of cavalry —but if this he the case, the necessity of such an arm . should have been f reseen, or a land ing ought to have been effected at a place where its absence would have been less felt D< ii Miguel who supposes that Ins brother’s forces came to fight and not to exercise, will scarcely allow them time to organise and discipline a necessary part ol the troops. If the commander of the expedition lias to purchase and tram hor ses, before lie ventures southward, the war cannot be finished in a single cam paign. Such arc some forebodings which we cannot disguise from the public, but we at'- bound at the same time to add, that as yet we see no ground to despair. The Imperial troops fought gallantly at the battle of the 23d, and as thcv can have no chance of remaining in their native country, or of escaping military execu tion, but in victory, we may relv on their continued fidelity, and their most perse vering exertions. Po those who arc unacquainted with the condition of the Portuguese nation, it may ap tear ominous that the expedition has been joined by so few of the inhabit ants of the country. A little reflection will remove this source of arxiety. The Portuguese who live beyond the limits of the two capitals of tin; Kingdom, Oporto an 1 Lisbon, take little interest in public uifers, or in conflots between different schemes of government. They are under fit. dominion of their priests, or of their landlords, and unless when excited by fa jiatieiMn, remain passive spectators of po litical changes. Even in the struggle of 1826 the hos tile armies of Don Miguel and of the Constitutionalists, passer! through the provinces as through ‘an unresisting me dium. * Don Pedro has been enthusias tically joined by the people of Oporto, as he would by the people of Lisbon, hot all that he can expect from the inhabitants of the country, is their neutrality mid indif ference. lln Marquis of Paluiell* arrived in town last night. The affairs of the continent are freely discussed in tin British Parliament, and the Eumeror of Uitssiu is handled with out gloV l*s.

GERMANY. The Amsterdam Cuuraiit contains the following iccount of the present state oi •he Prussi in armv:—Between the Rhiin and the Moselle, there are - neamped two divisions oi infantry, 24,000 men strong, and 2,000 cavalry. Between the Meiisi and Uie Rhine, four divisions of infantry. 48,000 strong, and 0,000 cavalry :—to which are .itt.-u- ad -24 battalions of aitil lery, with 3,000 men, and an engineer corps of 1,500 men. Thus the amount <d the three army corps, which occupy the hue of the Rhine is 86,100 men. The bulk of the disposable Prussian armv, canton-,;d lietween the Elbe ami the Oder, vanguard at* Erfurf Another army corps, wlucli was cantoned hi Silesia, is now on its march to the Rhe nish provinces. Filially, there is a corps constantly stationed in the Duchy of Po sen. i’lie force of the two last mention ed is 75,000 or 70,000 men, which makes the whole strength of the Prussian armv now ready to take the field about 291,000 men. London, August 7.—' The French ad vices of Sunday, by the Est.ifette, men tion that a courier had reached the French captt::!, Winch quitted Madrid on the 26th nit Flit Spanish Government is repre sented it. the letters received through this ch.cinel as being kept m tin. greatest state of alarm, at the inability of Don Miguel to drive Don Pedro «nit of Portugal. 1 he Spanish army does not appear, how ever, to have crossed the frontier iq. to the 21st or 22d ult.—This is important, not only ns it related to the success of the young Queen, hut also as it may save our own government the necessity of assntn mg a tone towards Ferdinand which might he attended with some inconven ience. It is reported, notwithstanding all that has been stated of late, that the King of Holland is more determined than ever not to enter upon any treaty of peace with Belgium, as such eonduct inay serve his interest, hy ultimately engaging some of the leading powers of the continent in a war. 'I he French papers of Sunday contain no news. Paris was tranquil Skvkx days later from Europe. New- York , Sept. 22. At half past 8 o’clock on Sunday eve ning, our news sclir.

Light vessels from the F.ast Indies, Brazil, &c. taken by Don Pedro’s squad run, arrived at Oporto, Aug. 3d and 4th. It appears that the new boundary line for Greece, which Inis been considered so advantageous, was obtained from the Grand Singnor at the price of fifty mill tons of Turkish piastres, which are to lie deducted from the stun which lie hail un dertaken to pay lo liussia.

Tlm- Capt. of the whale ship statei tliat the Pomerei, having sailed from O • alieiti for the otlier Island , anchored at one of tin m, and the Captain with some of the crew took the boat to go out a fish ing; Mr. Dourslher elso accompanied them m the Inrat. Soon afterwards s<ucc Indians came ofi’ near the sluji ex-1 iifiiiting hostile attitudes, as the crew saiil, I and they consequently fired upon them uid dispersed them. Afterwards there appeared a greater nunilier ot canoes round the vessel, and th* people on hoard, to escape-an attack, wciged audior and fieJ to Otaheite, leaving the Capt. and those tn the boat behind. Before the Will. Ti II left Otaheite for tins port, the I omen had sailed m company with the *elir. Eliza (whic left here some months since) to go in search of the bout. Capt. G. states that the Indians are very peace able, as he liiniself has lived among them, winch gives good reason to hope that the persons left behind have suffered no harm ; from them, and the first visit of the Indi ans seems rather to have terrified the crew ’than given real cause of alarm.

C., September 28. We stop the press to aunoOee that our city has been visited hv aiiothe. dreadful calamity. At one o’clock yesterday morning, a fire broke out at the -tore of Mr. Rich aid Smith, which destroyed every build ing on that square, fronting Fayetteville street, with the exception of the Bank of Newborn, which was preserved with «real difficulty. Nearly till the houses burnt were occu pied-as stores Most of the dry goods, excep those hi the store of Mr Richard Smith, were saved; but a larg< portion of the groceries were destroyed. The books end records of the office of the county Register were consumed. Furth er particulars next week.— Star. New- 1 or/., September 17. IRON CASE.—A case of considera ble interest to merchants was tried in the Supreme Court on Friday, which turned upon the question whether certain iron imported hy William Lacon, such as pal isading for balconies, gratings for win dows, and the part of andirons called the horse, consisted of manufactured articles, nr was bar iron. If the former the du |ty would he 25 per cent ad valorem. If the latter, $37 per ton. The Collector levied upon it as bar non; hv which the dutv was enhanced from $2411.90 to $1131,7"*. —The present action was brought to recover the difference, $884,- 76. The Jtirv gave a verdict in furor of the plaintiff, for the full amount claimed.
