That this meeting pledges itself to use every possible justifi able effort to obtain a repeal of the taxes on houses and win dows, and hereby earnestly invites the immediate co-operation of every city, borough, and town, throughout Great Britain, by instructing their Representatives to support Sir John Key's motion on the 30th of April, and by the adoption of such other measures as may tend to promote the attainment of an object which, after repeated promises,and as repeated disappointments, this meeting feels the people have now a right to demand.

" His Imperial Majesty the Duke of Braganza, Commander in-Chief of the liberating army, convinced of the necessity of defending at all risks the fine position of the Casa de Pas telleiro, for the purpose of securing as far as possible the means of disembarkation in St John de Foz, gave his orders to his Excellency the Marshal Major-General, who, after having reconnoitered the ground, determined what fortifies,. tions should be erected on this point, and charged Major_ General the Count de Saldanha with the execution of them. This officer displayed as much zeal and activity in he con. elusion of these works as skill and courage in defending them. " From the Quinta de Salahert to Lordello, from the Casa de Pastelleiro to the lighthouse, along this large space, on which, ten days ago, no defences existed, the General Saldanha was enabled to repel the utmost efforts,of the enemy's forces. The Committee of Deputies meets at the British Coffee house every Thursday evening at S o'clock precisely, when the attendance of any Friends to the cause is respectfully invi.ed.

"From the 3d to the 4th, the Marshal having reason to believe that we should be attacked, acquainted the General thereof, and made his dispositions accordingly. In tact, on the 4th, at day break, the enemy showed himself along the whole of our line, making a false attack upon the lines of Oporto. This ruse was too gross to deceive an officer ofthe least experience. General Saldanha, who commanded the out.post on our left, immediately made the following dispo sitions:— Just publi,herl, in 2 vole., 12rno. price 10. r. 6d. in cloth, TALES and CONVERSATIONS ; or, the New Childr:•n's Friend. rrHE W E NST E R REVIEW, -11- No. XXXVI , was published THIS DAY, . . 111 1 ----44 TIN and CO., No. 8, CORNHILL, 4 .,/ Ole (N," No. 86, Oxford -street, being duly authorised nftbe kitkgq(Tfnimkioners as their Agents for the SALE pubi;c, that ,h'CV L OTTFRY tn ,,, leave to inform the . k•-idPe! t pl ' ace on the 17th of April. 3 'v Priz a es 10.0001., rrt'n Y other Ca l The Property or _Mo . ne s y at the Co n . of the holders of the Prize , o ce p n i t. disc , unt.

" His Majesty's brig Royalist arrived this afternoon from Lisbon and Oporto, after a long passage of 18 days from the former and 13 days from the latter place. Her latest despatches from Oporto are up to the 11th instant. At Lisbon an impres sion was afloat, and currently believed, that Oporto had capi_ tulated, and the friends of Don Miguel were not a little sur prised on being undeceived by the commander of the Royalist. On her return the packet had no communication with the shore, but received her mail from his Majesty's ship Druid, which con tained particulars of the affair of the 4th, which had been the means of restoring great confidence at Oporto. " There were a great many vessels off the bar, landing stores of all descriptions. " The day the Royalist left Lisbon a detachment of 2,000 strong left to reinforce the army of Miguel at Oporto. " OPORTO, MONDAY, MARC'S " No packet has yet come up from Lisbon, but as the mails are going out, I do not wish to omit an opportunity of giving you the latest information. I was rather too sanguine in my anticipations with respect to the landing of provisions in the quantity and with the speed I had hoped, but ultimately there will be no disappointment. During the week, up to yesterday, there were in all but about twenty boat-loads landed, from un favourable weather and the jealous watchfulness of the Mi. guelites, who have now mounted four guns at the Castro, and placed field-pieces at the huts and on the Cabodello sands,with a breastwork thrown up for infantry. From this point they,inter rupted the landing considerably; but last nignt, I am happy to say, all the deficiencies of the week were made up, and 72 large boat loads were landed, including launches with bullocks and pigs, droves of which have gladdened our lunging eyes this morning in different parts of the town. I enclose you the , Gazette account of the affair of the 4th. Many here say that the Marshal did not exhibit sufficient energy or take advan- • tag° of the points gained by throwing out his reserves, and taking the redoubts, which our countrymen in this service declare they would have done alone. Great anxiety has also been expressed that an attack should be made on the Castro, but I believe the Marshal will follow his Fabian plan, which hitherto has been successful, and all is joy and congratulation in the town to-day, on the supply which came in last night without loss or hazard. As the wind cantinues in the same point, we may expect as much or more in to.night, and thus the enemy's object is defeated, even should his fleet, as is said, be at sea ; for the wind, so long cur enemy, is friendly in both points, keeping the sea quiet here, and preventing Miguel's ships from coming up. There arc upwards of thirty sail with provisions now at anchor, and if we get all in, Miguel has no chance of taking the town. It is, however, said that he is in tent upon this, :Ind that San Lourenco's failure this day week has thrown him into a phrensy. A report strongly prevails that the new Commander-in-Chief is degraded, and that Sir J. Campbell now holds this very precarious office. The report :Aso prevails that this gallant Scotchman says he will no longer have the child's play that has gone on for some time, anti we are promised an assault in four or five days. I hope we may have this threat fulfilled, for, if so, Miguel will have to look for another commander, as I am morally certain, even should the King himself come, he will be soundly thrashed. Sartorius and the squadron are coming down ; I wish they were here, as they could keep the batteries employed, and then provisions could land by day as well as night. Our lines are becoming stronger every day : to go into particulars of localities would be useless, and it is sufficient to give the simple fact that we are, in the opinion of the best judges, secure on all points. How 'different from this day three weeks, when directly the reverse was the case, as re garded our communication with the seal—and it is but justice tcadd, that our present improved condition is chiefly owing to the indefatigable zeal and perseverance of Count Saldanha. Steamers have, I understand, been despatched to Brest for the expected reinforcement. 2,500 men, including Colonel Cotteis, are, it is said, expected; and measures are taken that they should join and effect a landing on the coast, in the rear of the enemy. Let this only be done, and it is im possible to tell the result, the people here being a mystery, the nature of which becomes the more obscure the more you inquire into it. Their partiality for the stronger side has never been doubted, and if this project succeeds, the game is still alive. One of our greatest wants—gunpowder—was last night supplied, and the whole aspect of affairs is wonderfully Lmproved. We have received all the mails from England, and are so overpowered with the mass of news that we know not what to begin. In the Times of the 19th of February. I saw " Colonel Pacheco was charged with the defence of the pine-wood redoubt on the left of the Pastelleiro, with a batta. lion of the 10th infantry, under the orders of Major Cameiro, and with the first battalion of the Minho, commanded by Col. Onoria. " Major Cabral, commanding the 3d Infantry, defended the House of Pastelleiro with a part of his regiment. " The stockades which unite these two works was occupied by a strong picket from the 3d and 10th. " Colonel Fonseca, Governor of the Castle of Foz, by di rection of General Saldanha, caused the lighthouse to be occu pied by the let moveable battalion of volunteers, under the command of Major Rangel. " The cnmmunication between Pastelleiro and Lordello was confided to the brave Major Shaw, who had under his command a detachment of Scotch and the English volunteer riflemen. Lordeilo was occupied by a battalion of the 9th Infantry. " At break of day the enemy threw out a cloud of sharp shooters upon our outer line of defences, the fire from whom General Saldanha would not allow to be returned. These sharpshooters were supported by strong detachments in ad vance of their columns, which advanced in close order to attack the works. These columns marched with some vigour against Lordello, the Pastelleiro, the pine wood, and the points of communication between these positions. At the same time another column advanced between the pine wood and the lighthouse, when a company of the 3d, under the orders of Captain Moniz, supported by two companies of the 10th, com manded by Major Magalhaens, charged the column vigorously with the bayonet. The enemy, thus received at close quarters by our brave troops, covered the earth with their dead, who fell by our bayonets, the fire of our musketry, and discharge of grape from the guns on our positions. " A handful of Scotch and the riflemen of Major Shaw, with a detachment of the 12th Cacadores, under the command of Col. Queiros, repelled with the greatest intrepidity the at. tacks made by the enemy in front of his intrenchments, who, upon all points, poured a heavy fire on our troops. " In vain did the rebel officers attempt to bring their troops again to the charge; the coolness with which our brave fel. lows awaited them, filled them with terror. The rockets thrown from the lighthouse, with the artillery of the Pastel leiro, completed the total rout of these stays of the Usurper. " Thus concluded this attack, in which 10,000 rebels were engaged against only 1,400 of ours, as none of our reserve had occasion to open fire. Such were the valour and courage with which these few gallant soldiers behaved themselves. " The liberating army lost two officers killed. Col. Pachero, Wounded at the beginning of the action, could not quit his post ; but ten other officers were likewise slightly wounded. We had 13 killed, and 84 wounded ; and all, as well officers as soldiers, rivalled each other in courage and valour in this glori ous combat. " General Saldanha mentions with praise the manner in which the following officers behaved:—Colonel Menezeo, of the 9th ; Major Cobral, commanding the 3d ; Colonel Queizoz, of the 12th Cacadores ; Colonel Fonseca, Governor of the Foz ; Colonel Serra, of the Royal Engineers; Major Shaw, com manding the Scotch ; Colonel Ozorio, of the Minho battalion ; Major Target, of the let moveable battalion ; Major Barros Lobo, commandant of Artillery; Major Leine, governor of the Lighthouse; Major G. Paulet Cameron, of the brave Scotch corps ; Captain Phelan, of the Riflemen ; Major Car neiro, of the 10th ; and Lieut. Joachina Francisco de Mauraes, of the Caqadores, placed at the orders of Col. Serra. " Brevet Major Meedonca David, aide-de-camp of the Mar shal, who has for some days acted as chief of General Sal. danha's staff, and another of the Marshal's aides-decamp, Barreiros, charged with the direction of the works, both took a glorious part in this combat. " The Aides-de-camp of General Saldanha (Brevet -Major Don Fernando d'Almeida, Lieutenant George Van Zeller, Captain of Militia Joaquin Carlos, Fernandez de Couto, and Lieutenant Don Miguel Ximenes), who serve on the Staff as volunteers, answered the noble confidence which Count Saldanha reposes in them. Captain Solla, also of the Staff, had his horse killed under him while leading a company of the 3d infantry to the charge. " Brevet-Major Magalhaens, of the 10th Infantry, Captain Moniz, and Lieutenant Vega, of the 3d, and Lieutenant E. Smith Burgh, of the Scotch, behaved in so distinguished a man ner as to merit being particularly recommended to your Ma jesty's consideration. " The manner in which the Second-Lieutenant of Artillery, Jose Victoria Damazio, conducted himself is beyond expression; a ball having passed through him, scarcely was his wound dressed, when he returned to his post, resumed the command of his gun, and consented only after repeated orders to retire. " The Surgeon.in.Chief of the second division, Queimado, distinguished himself by the care with which he treated the wounded, and superintended that service. " General Saldanha gives his best acknowledgments to the military Intendant-in-Chief Vallade, who during the action twice presented himself and took proper measures that nothing should be wanting in his department. " '• " His Excellency the Marshal will have the greatest satis. faction in laying before his Majesty the names of many officers, inferior officers, and soldiers, who by their courage have entitled themselves to the consideration of the said august Lord. _ " The loss of the enemy must have been considerable. 300 bodies left around our positions, the number which we saw them carry away, and the still greater number of wounded who succeeded in retiring, compel us to believe that he had more than 1,500 put hors de combat. " From three until nine o'clock in the morning, the 'enemy directed upon the Serra a fire from every battery which bore on this point, and continued until mid-day on the 4th ; more than a thousand shot and shells were thrown against that position. " At eight o'clock A.M. the enemy marched out in columns from the camp of Caravela towards the church of St. Christ°_ vao, and then, taking the road of Quebrantos, approached the wall of the Cerca. A little before nine o'clock another column marched from the same camp, and took the road of Feruenca, in front of our right. A little after they formed a line of sharpshooters along the wall, and opened fire. " General Torres ordered the troops not to fire, but com mence a discharge of artillery upon the reserves of the enemy, beside a wall near St. Christovao, in the direction of Feruenca. The fire of the sharp.shooters immediately ceased, the reserves retired, and did not again make their appearance. We had wounded on this occasion—one officer, three soldiers, and two workmen of the garrison." We have great pleasure in publishing the following extract from the Chronica of Oporto : " TO 1113 EXCELLENCY THE MINISTER OF WAR. . " Sir,--I am requested by the officers of the Scotch FLU i leers to beg you will have the goodness to lay before his Impe rial Majesty the Duke of Braganza their request that they may be allowed to continue their services in the cause of liberty, justice, and humanity, without receiving one fraction of pay from the Ist of January, 1633, until her Most Faithful Majesty Donna Maria is proclaimed in Lisbon, when they have no doubt all their just claims will be instantly settled. For myself, who have been a witness of the sacrifices of the Portuguese officers in the Azores, and of the sufferings of the inhabitants of Oporto, I hope his Imperial Majesty will allow me to serve on the same terms as my brother officers, &c. &c. " CHARLES SHAW, " Major Commanding Scotch Fnsileers.' We add an extract from the letter of a very respectable and distinguished officer, who tells us that he is confident •f ulti mate success : " The business of the 4th has done wonders. The loss of the enemy I cannot compute at less than 1,500 men, and the Miguelites say '2,000. This appears incredible, but is, never theless, true. Our tire was uudcr cover —sure, cool, delibe. rats; whereas the Miguelites were in large masses, exposed to grape and cannon.shot -Our whole loss was under 100, owing to the admirable arrangements of General Saldanha. 1. have lost one officer killed, three wounded, and tweive privges— i remarkably few, considering the numbers we had- weed to us for lire hours ; but the secret is, that Ilsaitiv every inch of ground, and took advantage of it and of the walls."

( Laois, which will give you a good deal of insight Into the nature and success of the operaUoni. " Picquet, Mstaaett, March 4, MU. " Sir,---I have the honour to report to your Excellenc,.. that about six o'clock this morning, I yercoivad the enemy ag. proaching in two heavy columns, on the position between Lordello and the Pastalleiru, the defence of which you were kind enough to intrust to the Scottish ' , lancers under m) command. By the greatest exertions of the officers and men, the picquet house of Mataeett was so fortified during the last two nights, that I felt convinced the men would show them. selves worthy of the trust reposed in them. I was not disap pointed. I detached Major George Powlett Cameron to the left, in the most open and unprotected position, with orders Ireat proceeded obstinacy to the b by thel left, ft.Fusileers, to see h 6 u,, .n . t 1: M ajor reinforced, c o a rc in ed er , on abo u tv,.a sto keep hi s post, at all hazards, while I remained with the picquet.

I indul ge d them , and your Excellency via:, a witness of the gallant cond uc t of Major Cameron and brave countrymen. We arrived within a. few pares of two columns, who, luckily for the Fusileers, did not see their small numbers, but broke and fled in the greatest panic. I ordered Major Cameron to hold the ground he had taken, which was made easy by the position of the three-pounder from the Pastal lei ro. " The conduct of the Scottish Fusileers and the English Volunteer Rifles was witnessed by your Excellency ; there_ fibre it would be unbecoming in me to mention how proud 1 was this day of being a Scotchman ; but I am sure your Ex cellency will excuse me for mentioning how highly lam in. debted to every officer and soldier under my command. " Permit me to mention my admiration of Lieutenant Fi_ mund Smith de Burgh. It is to him I owe the splendid dt fence of the picquet-house. He saw his favourite brother killed by his side; he himself was the moment after shot in the breast, but be would not leave his post. I regret to say he afterwards received another wound, which, I fear, will deprive me of his services for some time. Allow me to recommend him to your notice in the strongest manner. " I regret to say Lieutenant Waiter Laurie has also been dangerously wounded, while exposing himself, in order to show the soldiers where to direct their fire with the greatest effect. Considering the desperate attack which was made upon the men under my command, the loss, I ain proud to say, has been trifling, which was owing to the quiet manner in which the men obeyed the orders of their officers not to expose them selves uselessly. Annexed is a list of killed and wounded.— I have the honour to be, your Excellency's melt obedient ser vant. (Signed) " CHARLES SHAW, " Lieut.. Col. Commanding Scottish Fusileers. " His Excellency Lieut.-General Count Saldanha. " Killed, 1 Ensign—Wounded, 3 Lieutenants (dangerously), 10 privates." Our army is highly elated by its ♦ictory' on 'Monday, and nothing short of an advance to Braga—nay, even to Lisbon— is talked of amongst the subalterns. The Generals and Field Officers, however, are more circumspect and discreet—acknow. 'edging that notwithstanding tho advantage gained, a great deal remains to be done: yet the Miguelites are depressed in the same proportion ; they acknowledge having sustained a signal defeat, and lost a great many men. On Monday after noon a telegraphic despatch was transmitted to Villa Nova, and would reach Lisbon before night, that they had failed in all their attacks on the Fos, the Lordello, and the city, and as to any attempt to renew it, the thing wa► quite out of the clues. lion, as nothing could induce their men to advance again—not even the promised plunder of Oporto, the old hobby-horse of Don Miguel and his ferocious satellite, Telles Jordan. Mancit 7 Last night, at Marshal fielignac's, I bad an opportunity of congratulating General Saldanha upon his victory of Monday. tie praised the gallant charges of the Sd and 10th regiment of the line, and the 12th Cagadores, the Scotch Fusileers, under the brave Major Shaw, and Major George Paulet Cameron. The latter was hit by a musket-ball, which could not penetrate the thick leather stock he wore, whilst charging several hun dreds of Miguelites, with thirty.six Highlanders, up a lane. This ball in the neck gaVe rise to the report that he was wounded in the leg. The riflemen, under Captain Phelim, .listinguished themselves greatly, and picked out many of the 3figuelite officers. A Lieut.-Colonel, with two epaulettes, h oeenemy certainly losing was found among the dead. Ar only 300 or 400 men of our army actually engaged, the execution done with their bayonets, an te d rm ca ed nn t o h n e , f m at a h y e h r e of ju h d is ged troo fro ps m , h m h 1,500 me n in killed and woundgd. General Conde C ar l os d e Saldanha n u a e ty is inspired with matchless alacrity, to erect and defend their new works at the Lordello,Pastelleiro,the Pine-wood,and Lighthouse. He wears a short jacket, but a long , sword; exile and grief for his country have prematurely blanched his busby locks, but the lire of youth sparkles in his dark eye, and vigour grand, by a certain " tournatre militaire,' a planeb; and frankness, distin guish him from the Portuguese Generals, wearing a profusion of orders on both aides of their breasts. Marshal Bereaford originally discovered his merit, and advanced him over the heads of many candidates for promotion ; and, though widely differing in politics at , present, Saldanha speaks always of the Marshal with gratitude, and paid his respects to him the other day in London, when on his journey from Paris to Oporto. When Don Migueldeclared himself absolUte, Saldanha offered to take him prisoner, and bring him on board the British flag. ship. Such was his influence in the Portuguese army, that all the regiments had sent deputations to him, to signify their readiness to support such an attempt; but the British. naval and military authorities (Sir H. Clinton) felt bound by their in structions to decline the proposition. The subsequent failure of the Constitutional expedition from Oporto to Coimbra, which is could not jinn till the defeat had become irretrievable, broke his heart almost ; but still his popularity, both among the inhabitants and army, is unbounded; and Marshal Solignac has evinced the confidence he reposes in Saldanha, by in. trusting him with the defence of so highly important a position as the For, which, next to the Serra Convent, is our salvation. Mattel& 8, FRIDAY AFTERNOON. The Government received yesterday and this day, large GUMS of money, part of which was landed from the Neko steamer, transferred into that vessel outside the bar, from the Lisbon packet. Thirteen gallegos, laden with gold and silver, were employed to carry the cash in bags, to the office of the Minister of Finance; a good set-off for a few protested bills, brought back this afternoon by the Savage brig of war—the filth mail arrived since Wednesday from England. Letters from Paris and Boulogne of the 24th of February, reached the palace by this opportunity, stating that 2,000 Ftenth soldiers were ready to embark—the money and accoutrements for them being likewise on the spot. They are now daily expected, as well as Colonel Cotter's Irish brigade, who furnishes them at the inconceivably low rate of 31. a man. SATURDAY, MARCIE 9. The British residents in Oporto have again suffered by the bombardment. Yesterday a ball went through Mr. Forrester's house, in Rua Nova dos Ingleses ; and this afternoon some British officers, in their scarlet uniforms, showed theinselves on the balcony of Mrs. Simpson, on the water side, opposite the Miguelite batteries, which immediately sent a 36tb. cannon ball through the upper stories of the house. 'Whereby a servant was slightly wounded. War, pestilence, and famine have rendered this once. flourishing town a vast scene of desolation, unparalleled in modern history. MONDAY MOSSINa, IIiaRCH 11. A report prevailed last night that Don Miguel had dismissed his new Comniander-in-Chief, Count St: Louiiinco, who is in disgrace since the failure of the attack on the 4th, and that General Viscount Santa Martha had committed suicide, of been assassinated by his master's satellites.
