POSTSCRIPT TO THE WEEK'S NEWS. SPECTATOR OFFICE, SATURDAY, Two O'CLOCK.

Information has been received from Dublin, that the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland has refused to recommend to Parliament the application of the Insurrection Act to the County of Tipperary. His Grace has caused a letter to be addressed by his Secretary to the High Sheriff of that County, in which he states, that nothing short of the increase and extension of the existing evil, and the proved failure of the exertions of the civil and military authorities under the existing law, could jus- tify him in giving such a recommendation. He anticipates from those exertions the removal of the evil, and of the disgrace which must otherwise attach to the continuance of the disturbances in Tipperary. Sir JOHN BYNG has informed the Sheriff, that he will adopt the sug- gestion made to him for permitting military parties to meet the magis- trates at given points to assist in putting down the disturbances. The Lisbon Gazette of the 12th instant contains an account of the defeat of the Miguelites at Terceira. It acknowledges a loss of nearly 500 men and 26 officers. It states that a new force will be fitted out to proceed against the island, which is still blockaded. Private Letters inform us that the remnant of the expedition has arrived at Lisbon in a very shattered state, and with the loss of nearly 2000 men. We have made inquiry, but are unable to throw any light on the following statement, which appears in the Chronicle of this morn- ing:— " We have received an address to the French Army, commencing thus= Sol- diers ! the combats of Liberty against Despotism are about to recommence, in our beautiful and unhappy country ! Such is the will of that Family which for forty years, has been the scourge of France.' The address is of such a nature that prudence forbids our giving publication to it. It is lithographed, and must have been extensively distributed ; for several copies, received by different gentlemen in London from Paris, have been shown to us. The letter in which a copy was enclosed to one of our correspondents, by his friend in Paris, stated that the address had been extensively distributed among the sol- diery. We know nothing more of the matter. It may be the work of the Liberals, or it may be the work of the Ministry, plotting the discredit of the Liberals."

Accounts from Lisbon state, that the Terceira squadron, on its return, brought two British vessels as prizes, and eleven American seamen, who had been taken out of an American vessel as prisoners.
