The Prince. accompanied by two lieutenants, mounted on horseback to proceed to St. Christopher's to obtain sanction of the King, which was immedi ately accorded. The King gave his signature, and the Prince returned full speed to the place du Rein, where he was almost stifled by the joy of the people who pressed round him. Having re...ascended the platform, he announced diiiimpointment of a no w ' ministry, whi c h w as rece i ve d' with unanimous siva:. Shortly after the members of the new administra tion waited on the Prince; and M. J. da Costa Quintella, who was named first minister, in passing along, was hailed joyously by the people, who caused him to enter the theatre. At nine the Prince again appeared on the plat. form, accompanied by the Bishop, and the new mi nisters, and took the oath of adhesion on the Gospel, in the name of the King. All the ministers fol lowed his example. At this scene, which became more striking from the cheerful demeanour of the Prince, the people and soldiers became animated by the highest transports of joy, and embraced each other like brothers. At 11 the King arrived at the theatre, and was drawn in his carriage by the white population to the castle. Shortly afterwards the whole of the Royal Family appeared at the balcony. All the garrison then defiled, and took the oath to the constitution ; after which the Prince advanced, and exclaimed aloud, " All that we have done was by my father's order." The whole then retired to share the joy they felt with their families and friends. FEB. 28.—Yesterday the whole of the navy took the oath to the constitution. Advices were de spatched for Bahia, and for Pernambuco the same r day, and this morning for Monte Video. A sub scription of 42 milreas has been raised for the troops. The choice of the ministers has been generally sp. proved, having fallen on men of known probity and , zeal. The bank has resumed its payments in specie. The Gazette of' this day, which 1 send you, re lates to all the facts in its accustomed manner, with submission to the royal authority All credit is given to the King. The decree is dated the 24th, but that is an antedate, assumed to save his delicacy.— It seems certain that a portable printing press was conveyed to the theatre, from which it was issued. The mode of relation use d by the Gazette is far irons Inning given satisfaction to the people. MARCH 4.—The discontent which I foresaw, in consequence of the Gazette of the 28th ult. having become general, it has been attempted to apply a remedy to it by the publication of a supplement.— All is tranquil, and every one has resumed his usual occupations. GAZETTE OF RIO DE JANEIRO.

My Ministers and Secretaries of State, to whom this decree is directed, will make it duty known, by despatching the proper orders to the tri bunals and governors of provinces.

WEDNESDAY, Fes. ,'B.--Thu heroic deeds of the brave Portuguese nation are su well known through. out the universe, that a detailed enumeration of them would servo no other purpose than to excite distrust it was sufficient, therefore, merely to an nounce the successes--equally promeroos and rapid —of the ever-metuorable .2(31i of February, which will render our history illustrious. Brazil echoed the voice of our brothers in Portugal; tool the noble tire of patriotism, inflaming the generous breasts of the inhabitants of Rio de Janeiro, bust through all übstaJos, and displayed itself everywhere with the greaten enthusiasm The people, actuated by the desire of seeing their situation ameliorated, ambitious of the glory of regenerating their country, but not able by thetahelces clone to effect so great a wail. called to their sasiatance those who more than once have succoured them in time of neat, and found in their tirainess, courage, and honour, the help a hit+ the? required. PRICZ 94d. We have judged it necessary to insert a second time in this supplement the relation of circumstances already minutely described ; and we cannot conclude without giving all the praise in our power to the firmness and Ainthusiasin of the people of Rio de Janeiro. to the valour and subordination the 'troops equally distinguished for their brawny and fibasielapie LAsd above all, to the magnanimity of a generous - nines, who, protecting the cams of justice, unites with the constitutional principles of his subjects the paternal sentiments of the best of Sovereigns. FREYCH PAPERS. PARIS, MAY 6.—At the last court held by the King, all the Princesses, including the Duchess of Berry, were present. When the Duke Cases pre sented himself in his turn pay his duty to his Ma. jesty, the Duchess of Berry, on hearing his name announced by the gentleman in waiting, uttered a shriek of horror. Monsieur, who was by her side, astonished and alarmed at her conduct, begged her to tranquilize her spirits and control her temper.— In spite of his remonstrances, she continued to show strong symptoms of mental agitation, and began to appear seriously indisposed. All the family sur rounded her to hide her situation from the King. who would have been highly offended at her beha. viour. All they could say or do was useless: she expressed a wish to leave the room, and Monsieur took her by the.arm and led her ont. The Duchess then exclaimed—" You may do what you like, my dear father; but J must tell you, nothing on earth can oblige me to be in the same room with the murderer of my husband." She shut herself up foe the rest of the day in her own mom • and though previously invited to dine with the King she sent a letter of excuse on account of sudden indisposition : nor did she tell an untruth, fur she was seriously ill. This strange and absurd behaviour shows to what a . degree the mind of the Duchess has been poisoned by the interested intriguers of the ultra-Royalist party, who all the while are laughing in their sleeve at the credulity of their dupe, and are hugging themselves to find that a calumny too gross to itn.• , pose on an infant has the good fortune to pass cur. rent in a quarter where it might do much injury to , the great object of their hatred. The following passage from a private letter to a French editor, was struck out by the censors:— . " The King of Naples has, it seems, at length consented to go back to his states. He has lingered a long time in the Tuscan and Papal territories, and his delay has given rise to many conjectures. It is said that he is very much displeased with the con duct of the Prince of Calabria, and that the adoption of some measure of rigour respecting him is con templated." The distribution of provisions in celebration of the birth-day of the Duke of Bourdeaux was abundant. Eighteen thousand pounds of sweetmeats, from Ver dun, were thrown amongst the people in the Champ Elysees ; besides bread, wine, and sausages, 37,500 patties were given to as may pour families on the preceding day; each cost the city half-a-crown, though their price at the pastry-cook's is only 15d. So much for corrupt influence. The revolution which has taken place at Rio Janeiro, the seat of the Brasilian Government, was accomplished without the shedding of blood. The conduct of the King of Portugal on the occasion has insured hint the love and veneration of his subjects, as he issued a decree on the '24th of February, declaring that he would front that moment heartily approve and sanction the constitution established at Portugal, and receive it its his Nlajtsty's Kingdom of the Brazils and ell the other dominions of his Crown.

Rio DE JANEIRO, FEB. 27.—Although it has been long expected, we did not think the day of our revolution was so neir. The King's decree of the 18th instant, in which be reserved to himself the nomination of the Cortes, and assumed the nomi nation of the Junta, has brought on the crisis. I give you a brief summary of the facts, as they have come to my knowledge : of the greater part of them I was an eye.witness. Amidst the general discon tent which sueceeded to the events at Lisbon, the hope still existed that the King would voluntarily accede to the general wish. That hope, however, was destroyed by the publication, by authority, of the pamphlet in which the policy of the House of Braganza, with regard to Portugal, was discussed, and in which the Portuguese were treated as rebels. Some patriotic individuals determined on profiting by the universal dissatisfaction, (placing their reli ance on the decided bias of popular opinion in favour of the constitutional system), to effect a revolution. They possessed no personal influence, except over a handful of soldiers. They held their deliberations on board a vessel in the harbour; and the Ist of March was the day fixed for carrying their measures into execution. The secret was intrusted by a son to his father; and the result was, an order for their arrest on the night of the 25th or 26th ; the execu tion of which was confided to the battalion of the police. Their measures, however. had been so well concerted, that this circumstance only hastened the execution of their plans, without deranging any of them. It is generally said that one of the leaders even sent an intimation of their plot to the Prince Royal, to guard against any alarm to the Princess, who is far advanced in her pregnancy, assuring him that no danger could accrue to any member of the House of Braganza. Many respectable merchants were included in the order of arrest, and all were to have undergone deportation to Angola. The principal conspirators were Goiz, who for merly served with reputation as lieut.-colonel; Da Costa, major in the 11th regiment, much beloved by the troops; Pimenta, formerly major in the southern division, a sufferer by the injustice of the old mi nistry; Cipriano, lieutenant of artillery; Major Padoa, son of Lieutenant Rey, who was massacred in an attempt to make himself master of the fortress of Almeida ; Father Silva, and Mocamboa, a man of letters and an advocate. At midnight, on the 25th, the regiment of chas sours left their barracks: their colonel, who attempt ed to restrain them, was arrested and placed under a guard. On their arrival in the city they called on the Brazilian chasscurs to make common cause with them, which was acceded to, and they all re paired to the place du Rucio, where the depots of ammunition were situated. It was three o'clock in the morning of yesterday, when , the Prince Royal received notice of what was passing, when he im mediately manifested the resolution of placing him self at the troops, with the view of sparing the effusion of blood—the Prince is liberal; and the great day, of which he from that moment became the hero, owes its chief lustre to the frank, loyal, and decisive manner iu which he has acted. The Prince appeared wholly unattended. It is said that a cannonier, whom he desired to extin guish his match, having related, he expressed his approbation at his declining obedience to any but his officers, On passing before the chnsseurs they received him with cric. of " Live the constitution!" to which he replied by repeating them. Alter a short deliberation with the officers, surrounded by the people, whom curiosity had drawn to the spot, the Prince ascended the platform of the theatre royal, which overlooks the place du Rocio, and read the written act of adhesion to the constitution, in the form to be decreed by the Cortes of Portugal.-- It was received with loud acclamations, which gra dually spread on all sides. The torts fired a royal !elute, and all the bells of the churches were put in motion to spread the happy news. The act of adhesion was si p ined by the o ffi cers, and by all who could press sufficiently near to participate in that honour. The Prince having asked it any thing fur. ther was required, four students advanced to claim the liberty of the press; but the Prince replied, that at must of necessity follow the act he had just per forated, inasmuch as " a constitution without tha liberty was a body without a soul." - • torr. . •• MI - - - AMP., 4111/11r11,- 411111, 1111P911.._ ~'~~ I .. ~1
