This notice has alarmed the ship owners, who, stiebrthat there will be no ship of war to convey their vessels, ItillWobliged to dismantle them." Tbe Journalist has forgotten, •and doubtless very innocently, to say that this notice concerns .only vessels bound Co our West India •Colonies.

The Ministry think of forming an army of reserve, just as the campaign is about to commence; for this' want of foresight,. one might be tempted to think, •that there are no military per sons in the councils of the Minister, or that they have suffered thetas to be ignorant, that without an army of reserve,, a battle often decides the fate of a campaign. But if, as some orators have said, the war with Spain is an affair of three months, it is of no use to speak of a reserve, which would not be organised by that time.

Pott;that the greatest misunderstanding prevails in the corps of O'Ponnel, which principally arises from the General's desiring to put Officers sent by the Regency, in the places of the ancient Officers belonging to the corps that have come from Navarre and Arragon. an consequence, all these Officers, it is said, have sworn rather to leave the Army of the Foith, and even go • over to the .donstitationalists, than obey these .new C,hiefs, who.are .unknown to them, and have not made war, . with them ; the soldiers in general are animated by the same sentiments ; they wish to continue the war under those with whom they began it, and would desire to have Santos Ladron for their General.

If the French troops behave thus in Spain, they will have even the Royalists against them. The people are far from being patient. The troops continue to arrive, anti are .sent to the neigh houring villages. A part of .the Guard has come into the city, on account of the expected arrival of the Duke of An , . gouleme.

The factious have not yet come down upon our detachments ; • the bridge of Cavez is secure, and I send thither s ome of t h e troops that arrive. " The spirit of the troops is excellent, and they are eager to revenge the outrage done to the brave Cazadores. Thepeople in this part of Traz-ez-;pontes are almost all in a state of Msurrection, ddiuled by the Proclamations of An tonio de Silveira, and armed ; but I fear nothing from this arm ing of the people, as when we enter again, the presence of the troops will keep them in check. " I hope that Brigadier -Claudirio• will - join me as soon as possible; as soon as he arrives, and some • more force, I will effect the movement of our troops. Ido not much desire to trouble the Militia, who ought • only to be employed in gar risons and etinVoys ; but unless I obtain some mere troops of the line, it -will be absolutely necessary to employ them on other services. I have sent to the Governor of the district of . oporto'for 3,000 pair of shoes, the soldiers being nearly bare foot, from the long marches, anti the dreadful roads on the ,mountains. " In order to tut . off the rebels from a retreat by Galicia, I applied to the - General of the Provincs of ()reuse, and to the Commander ~o f the, Forces at Monte Rei, with a view to' gain. time to meet again with the rebels, who suffered considerable loss in the skirmish of the 13th: A great part of the Cazadores who were taken prisioners fled, but the people took some and delivered them up at Chaves ; several have come to our posts of Lamego, Cevez, and here. Nothingcan equal the consti tutional spirit of these soldiers, a spirit which likewise distill. 411, ishes the troops of the line that I have here, and those that defend the Tamega. " Of the Commanders of the two battalions which fought, I tip not yet find that any saved himself except Major Lima, commoner of the seventh, the first attacked, and which Most resisted the impetuosity of the cavalry. The unfortunate Bri gadier Pamplona, after the light troops were dispersed, joined the 21st of the line, and, with it, opposed the enemy for some time, making great slaughter among them ; but at length he yielded to the sperionty of the cavalry which surrounded him, and he was taken prisoner in a house to which he had retired, being denounced by the owner of it. This is what I have learned by persons who came from those pant; lam taking measures for the public safety of this country, which is tran quil.—God preserve your Excellency. " LUIZ DO REGU BARRET°.
