shot up. The coutisaition of English goods is
postponed until the ittith of next month, at which
thee the Courier who is to bring- the decision of the
fate ofPortugat is expected. Thedisturbauces which
which took place on the teth and lith inst. were
occasioned by the heisting of the French colours,
which irritated the populace against the foreign
military. The soldiers fired setcral volleys, but

lives were lost on both sides, on that occasion.—
On the lath the public tranquillity was perfei tly
restored, and there is no reason to appreheail any
farther commotion, unless a famine should goad

the people to despair.— ( StockAolis Ga:ette, Feb. 3.)
