Oats had advanced to 20s. per hush-). the price of cattle had falhn3 or -it) per cent, within the last ciht months But this is not all an alarming fever pi i-vails in Dublin to a frightful extent, which has been biought on by privation Sc distress. A letter is published ftom Dr. Magic, senior physician to thesick i'oor Institution, which gives many painful facts as to the progress of this disvse. The fever commenced as early as April, when the hospital for fever paiicn'.s wee all filled up. Application was then made to the lord lieutenant for more extensive accommodations But down to the latest dates, none had been afforded. The average number of fever patients enteied per month, in 'he hospitals for several yeais past, was about 65 In this vear, the number entered in Mav, was 4"8 ; in June, 623 ; and in July, the number was swelled to 1.396 And one third part ol t e applications were not entered, from the limi'cd accommodations, ard the utter impossibility of attending so many. Only one name, moseovcr, of a family, is entered though there may be si or eiizht ill in the same family. The calamity lias aviscn from the miserable condition of the

poor, the want of sufficient nourishment j and clothing, and the filthiness of their I ill-vcntilatcd apartments. The disease is 1 centagious, and increases in malignity. A Dublin paper says j Distress, we are concerned to say, . prevails to a large extent in thi town, ; Cashel, New Inn, and the surrounding country. In many places the people are j living on one meal a day, c the food then consists of boiled nettles Fever, cholera mot bus, and dyscnteiy, are very prcv- i alent in town and country. In many pla- ! ccs the people are living on bread ifiad of pollen but this also is rising in pru;ei Water, too, is failing in many towns, arid ' in various parts of the country. Cattle, are every day deteriorating in value, in '

consequence of the want of grass, and have already arrived at an unprecedented ptice. The most gloomy prospects arc to be apprehei.dcd in consequence of the want of rain. Yet, amidst this general want and distress, it is truly melancholy to obscivc that the masons in this town have tefus.cd to work, unless an increase of wages shaii take pi ce. The corn crops on 'lie Continent, arc said to b most ahurdan' The heat has been very excessive, u i.tl gem-rally ac- j companied wit!) d ncu.us fuvers, to i which many, chiv.fi', tne aged and the young, have fallen victims. In Copenhagen, the mortality has been great. I he rye harvest has been very dvncieut in D n i nark. A ntiMib r of ve-srls were filling out at London, said to be destined to join loid Cochrane. Bepm ts c ntinued, that a dt claration or manifesto would shorllv be made by the European powers, relative to Greece. The Algeiine stpiadron is ordered to cruise for Si-anish vessels.

PORTUGAL No subject a?racred more notice in Europe, al the l '.t .-t dates than the affairs of Portugal. Tas parti zan.s of the prince don Mie,tiel, absolutist, had raised his standard, quand meme or in spite of his own admonitions, anil declared the constitution transmitted liom B:azil,to be illegal and inadmissible. A teport exis:ed at Vienna of an intcndeil int v rmasi iatc between him and an Austrian archduchess He is not Hki ly to pro ea faithful friind to the new constitution, tisid should he soon i etui n, may be ab'e and tiver to ovcrthnnv. or modity it Whole regiments telie'led and withdrew into Spain.

The same individual, in a despatch, addressed to the minister at war, states, that the 24th regt of the line had had the audacity to arrest all its superior (Hirers and openly to rebel against the government. 44 I shall hasten," he adds, 44 to march against the rebels, with the faithful troops that remain in this province ; but, in the meantime: it seems to me that it would be veiy advisable that your excellency should speedily despatch a corps of troops towards this frontier." Viscount tic Santa Martha wt ites from his head quarters at Braga, that he had ordered two regiments of infantry to march to Chaves, to support gen. Mcllo. The vincount dc Monte Alegrc, is at the head of the rebels The objects of these disaffected persons arc not spccificallv declared, but it may be supposed they wish to perpetuate the blessings of the ancient system of government in Pot'ugal Wcare prepared, however, to find, in the progress of the business, that their leaders are not acting frem their own views solely, but that

something like political intrigue will be , found mixed up with the spirit of faction. ' And should this prove tb be the case, what language could be too sttcn, applicd to those, who, fur the chance ot a petty triumph of this kind, would expose a country to all the horjoi s of a civil war ?" 44 The Journal des Debats contains some very impoitint intelligence from Lisbon. The monks in the nt igtiborhood ot Lisbon have been anathematizing the constitution, which has given i ise to tumultuous scenes. According to the Etoilt ot Monday, disturbances have taken place in the province of l'laz-os-Monles. At Uraganza, the 24th regt. of infantry mutinied, and 200 men, having at their head the In i gadier de Monte Alegte, passed if. o Spain. Movements have taker p ai e at Chav cs, snd in the prov incc ol Alcntejo.
