A letter from Lisbon, dated June 21, brought
by the Mail arrived on Monday, tays—" The Portu-
guese Government still petrist its their unfriendly
condua towards England. A cartel la:ely arrived
in the 'fagus, with 187 French prisoners from the
Cape. 'These ruffians rose upon the guard on board
the cartel, beat them, plundered the ship, and made
their escape in the ship's boat. The guard fired
upoa them, bet without etre& In consequence of
the guard's hating thus done their duty. the Portu-
guese Minister wrote to Lord StItANGICAD, our
Gawp d'Affaires. informing him, that an embargo
had been placed on the cartel. and that she would
not be allowed to quit the port, for having dared to
fire upon Frenchmen on neutral ground. Lord S.
communicated the Note to the Cmimanding Officer
on the station, from whom these particulars have
been colleeed.
This makes the second ship which the Portia.
guese Government have thought proper to en.bargo
in the course of a eery few days, altli.iiigh both of
them were a:tually employed upon important ser-
vice. This condua is not agreeable to the people
nor to its Sovereign. Mons. D'Aitariso, the Prime
Minister, has long been attached to France. of whose
Grand Legion be is a Member. He is a person of
neither family nor talent, and it is only by the
French interest that he continues in office.'
The day before the packet sAiled, it was reported
at Lisbon, that the expedition which lately pro-
ceeded from the Cape of Good Elope, supposed at
the time to be destined to the River de la Plata, had
really cone against the Mauritius, an account of the
surrender of which mi-ht be soon expected. It is
not stated through What channel thus intelligence
reached Lisboa.
