We re to say that serious disturbances have taken place during the past week througaout the colony, and the thops of the Portcguere traders have been piliaged aod Gestroyed by the negro population. There hes been for «long time existing among the creole negroes s latent feeling ageinst the Portuguese immigrants, who ara a thrif’y anv industrious race of people, anc this feeling is alro prevalent among the African iwmigrents and negroes from the islards, who have come to reside here. Chis la cent feeling of jealousy would not have broken out into active hos‘ility but for other circumstances which have cocurred ip this civy within the last tow weeks, About the end of the past year, » man named John Sayera Orr, better known ir Evgiand and in America by the ecgnomen of the ‘‘Angal Gubriel,”’ or, as the pe-ple of tcotland termed him, “Wicked Knavish,’’ re\urned to this colovy, of which he is a creole, and teck up his abode with his mother, in this ci'y. | This wan, who is # sort of religious fanniic, having created rerious riots, attended with bicodshed, in New York, Montzeal, Greenock and Glargow, by the vio'eace of his language. had not been many daysin this colony vefure ke commenced his old trade of disturbing the pablic on sgainat toe Roman Catholics, whom be accured of all sorts of crimes and immoralities. Had be copfined himself to this kind of preaching ne might bave preached till doomsday before he would have succeeced in inflaming the winds or arousing the pacstone of the ignorant portion of the black population; but having direovered that there was a considerabie de- gree of smothered jeslousy and ill-feeiing existing between the negro popuistion and the Portuguese, he adroitly veized upon that and mixed it up with nis attacks on the Rowan Catholics. In this he was only too successfal— like park dropped upon tinder, hostliity against the Portuguese spread rapidly throughout the city, and was soon communiested to the count istvictss in George: town the Portuguese were asssiled by men, women and chiléren, with cries of ‘‘Down with the Pcrtuguese; down with the Pope!’ The Portuguese exhibited very considerabie forbearance—and, however much they may have been annoyed, they did mot commit any breach of the peace in resenting the insults offered to them. ‘Thus matters went on until Sunday, the 10th instant when Orr mounted the town pump, in front of Stabrock merket, armed with a (agger end life oreverver, and ad ved a large crowd of persons in a most inflammatory For the reditious Ianguage used by him on that occaion, snd tor convening an unlawful assembly be hes since been arrested and committed to take his trial before ibe Supreme Criminal Court in April next.

On the 17th Ore was prevented frow preaching in the atree's—and he then proceeded to tis mother’s yard, and there he addressed the crowd who assermbied to hear him. After this moe dog, on Sunday evening, the disturbances commenced by tae nagross at- tackirg one or two Portvguese shops and pelting several Portuguese who had «--emblea in the neighborhood.

The horee police speedily disperred the mob, urd the examiaation of Mr, Orr vas con !ucted and con. cluded with perfect tranquillity. The people, howevor, slmost immedia‘sly commenced their attacks upon the Portuguese shops in the outlying parts of the town, and by micnight there was not one in those districts which hed not ‘yeon completely gutted of its contents, A large constable had been rworn .

From what has sitce transpired, it is unquestionable that emissaries must have started at the same time from Georgetown to the verioug rural districts, exching the people to follow the example of their brethren in Gvo: twa, and, which is more extraordinary stit/, asserciog: that they were carrying out the orders of the Governor In doing re. A fpeciat! merting of the Court of Poltey was sam- moned by the Governor on Monday, the 18h ivst., at 12 o'clock, and #n ordinance was puased to make pro- viston for more effectually repressing disturbaaces and aitempta to commit breacces of thy peace.
