The obnoxious di cree relative to the extension of :pace cn inland bills, had been an. nulled; but still many at the Portugneso, look. Mg forward to the expulsion of the English, were keeping out of the way. A great deal of British property would still be left behind, after the departure of the convoy. The proceedings of the Portuguese Court are little known to the people, whe are even ignorant whrther 'the French are on their march or not. But it was the general opihion, that BumAPARTI will not press things to such an extremity 45 to compel the Plumes Klestil . to embark, but content hirnselt with hie shutting ma the English. Under this persuasion, many English merchants are said to have resolved to continue there iacog. rather than abandon thew property, in the hope that after a while there will 'be some relaxation of the severity of the order for their departure. They even louk forward to a a ccrued commerce. But tl.ese notions, it will be seen. are rather the suggestions of hope, than the cos. elusions of reason from any known fads.
