et whisk these proceedings will have, it is as yet ,
Minirto speak. A letter from **Viscount de 81,
t.. Übes, May 26, states it to be his intention to re-
sist keel & intervention by force of arms, and to submit only 1
to the or of the victor. But, subsequently to this, the I
Plissween same in from Oporto, bringing despatches
vr aialakted, it wee currently reported, the acceptance,
of the mediatory terms proposed by England
aad , and throwing the responsibility of dirk being
into full and complete effect upon the powers byl
Whose Instrumentality they were imposed. This sounds
pknibly enough, and, as Polyphemus was despatched out
of the Tagus within an hour of her snivel, it
seems likely that she has gone to St. Übes to
I convey the orders of the junta to Sades Bandeira,
r who, in that case, will make his immediate submission.
In the mean time, there was a great deal of firing heard on
the morning of the 28th in the direction of St. Ghee, hut
from the inquiries I have made I have been led to believe
that the cannonading was oanfined to a few redoubts, and
that no sortie was attemtted.
The Superb is at St. bee, where, together with Phcenix,
she is observing the insurgent forte under Sade Bandeira.
A few days ago an account reached Lisbon that one of the
Oporto stamen had fired into the Donna Maria frigate, and
several shots having taken effect in her hull and mmenutast,
the latter bore up and made the best of her way into Vigo.
Polyphemus brought intelligence that the Mindello (one of
the junta steamers) was steaming close behind her on her
way to St. Übes. The mission of Polyphemus to that
place is, as I am since informed, for the purpose of putting
a stop to any naval movements on the part of the rebels.
She brought, also, intelligence from pO eto that, on the
21st inst., a meeting of the British inhabitants there had
been summoned by the consul, when he declared to them
that he had received orders from Lisbon to demand a sus-
pension of arms from Des Antes; end that if this sou not
acceded to, he informed the meeting that, as the Gladiator
would probably have to leave the River Douro, he there-
fore intimated these facts, in case any person wished to
take refuge en beard and to leave the cry. This meeting,
like the preceding one, called in January last under similar
circumstances, produced no results, as the British inhabi-
tants at Oporto did not appear to be apprehensive of the vio-
lence of the Portuguese. I also learn, by a private letter of the
27th, that the Fos Castle had been reinforced with 1,600 men,
avowedly with the intention of firing on the Gladiator and the
Spanish brig stationed in the Douro, in case the junta's
steamers should be taken possession of by the British or
Spanish war vessels. The Bulldog is still here taking coals.
The Dublin Steam Company's packet Duke of Cornwall,
commanded by Captain Kempston, went this afternoon to
' Figueira in order to convey despatches from the governor to
Saldanha, who remains still at Oliveira de Asemms.
P.S. I have not adverted to the fact that France com-
bines also with England and Spain in this armed interven-
don : the assistance Louis Philippe is to render is confined
to the " moral weight of his recommendation and approval
of our policy."

FRANCK—BAYONNE, MAT 29.—The Spanish
general, Alma, and Co!. Don Lnis-Antonio Garcia-Puente,
both of them Carlist refugees, were arrested yesterday, by
the police, in a house in which they had secreted themselves.
General Don Juliano Joaquin de Alias is one of the leading
men of the Carlist party. He is still young, and bears a
name unblemished by any set of cruelty during the civil
war. Under existing circurnstancea, this will be a death-
blow to the desperate hopes entertained by the Carlini of
Guipmcos, of Biscay., and of Navarre ; and in this respect
his capture is one of high importance for the cause of the
Queen. General Alma is considered to share the full con-
fidence of the Count de Moutemolin. Different modals,
bearing the effigy of the Duke of Bordeaux, which were
found upon his person, prove that he was in communication
with the French legitimists. Col. Garcia Puente held a
high office in the department of the ministry of
war under Don Carlos. Other artiste have been
made, but of little or no importance. A corre-
spondent writes to us, under the date of the 31st ult., that
" General Alma was to leave Bayonne on the let inst. for
Limoges, which had been assigned to him for his future
abode by the French government." The mayor and muni-
cipality of St Jean de Lus have sent in their resignations
to the French government in consequence of Dr. Dop, one
of their solleagues, having been subjected to a domiciliary
visit by the police in quest of Carlisle.

COLONIAL.
NEW SOUTH WALES.—The following satiafac-
tory extract of a letter from a gentleman of high position in
this colony, dated Sydney, Feb. 17, contains in brief space
the substance of all the intelligence we have received by the
latest arrivals. From other sources we learn that the wool
clip of the season, though later than meal in reaching the
coast, on account of the floods in the Mader, is excellent
both in quantity and qtaility.
