It is confidently rumored in the circles
connected with govunment, that minister-I
have resolved immediately to withdraw the
British army from Portugal. Vlcthcther this
resolution has been adorzted in cons< quence
of the increase of the French army being
'such as to leave us little hope of ultimate
success from a prolongatiou of the strusgle,
or from what other motit'e, we know not ;
but we have reason to believe the present
determination ol minisrctsss to be as we have

the spot where they moored her, to take
her down into the bay. The watchman at '

he thought it was by herown crew. The
