"It is said Riza Pacha has been named aide-de-camp

lead to a crisis for the present Ministry."

We mentioned yesterday that intelligence had been
brought from Lisbon to the 6th by the steamer
Achilles, and that CASAL had defeated the Miguelite
General, MACDONNELL, at Braga. The following is
CASAL'S official dispatch :
" Most Illustrious and Excellent Sir,—lt having come
to my knowledge that the Miguelite guerrillas, with
Macdonnell at their head, caused much inquietude in
the province of Minho, carrying their hardihood to the
extent of appointing authorities in the name of the pro-
scribed usurper, and giving it out that my division is in
accordance with them, I resolved to march on this city
for the purpose of attacking these enemies of her
Majesty's throne and of the national libertiz-s ; and I
now proceed to give you a succinct account of the attack
which took place yesterday, to be submitted to their
Majesties, until I shall have time to describe it more in
detail. I entered Braga yesterday by main force, and
succeeded in completely defeating Macdonnell. That
adventurer had entrenched himself within the city, and
forced from 1,500 to 2,000 men, whom he had with him,
in great part soldiers of Evora Monte, to fight despe
rarely. They had 240 killed, some of them being
colonels and lieutenant-colonels, and one major prisoner.
We had 36 killed and wounded—four officers of the
number. We had also two horses wounded and one
killed. The fire lasted for four hours.

Casa', issued the following proclamation the day
after the battle :

" Inhabitants of the province of Minho,—An English-
man without character, a Spaniard utterly unknown,
four ecclesiastics, the disgrace of_their order, and half-a-
dozen men without name, virtue, or morality, seducing
some and forcing others, have waged war against him
who offered you peace, and sealed with blood my en-
trance into this province, when I meant to have strewn
my path with roses. The valiant division under my
command has inflicted on them the merited chastisement
—may the lesson prove beneficial ! Mercy is open to
those who shall repent, but justice will fall with all its
rigour on those who shall not desist from their criminal
intentions. Inhabitants of the province of Minho, the
legitimate authorities are installed, anarchy has ceased,
and the necessary orders are issued for the re-establish-
ment of tranquillity. I reckon as much on the subordi-
nation of my soldiers as on the devotedness of my
countrymen. Misled and deceived men, abandon for
ever a banner—if such name it deserve—abhorred for its
injustice and forgotten for its antiquity. Spare your-
selves inevitable chastisement. Run to me—the arms
of a brother are open to receive you, and I guarantee
the clemency of the illustrious Queen who presides over
our, destinies. Let ' Queen and Charter' be our de-
vice ; obey, and you will be happy. (Here follow the
usual vivas.)

The insurrectionary Junta at St. Michael's sent
on the 19th of December an officer to Terceira, re-
quiring it to join the movement. The Governor,
however, refused, and sent the officer back to St,
Michael's.

The extreme severity of the weather has prevented
SALDANHA from undertaking anything of import-
ance. He was at Pombal on the 31 with the Ist and
2d brigade of the army of operations. His dispatches
announce that very many of Das ANTAS'S soldiers
have deserted over to him. On the 31st no fewer than
43 came over from the 7th Infantry and 7th Caga...
dores. On New Year's-day 21 came over, and on the
following day four more.
On the last day of the year the QUEEN gave a
grand dinner at the Palace of the Necessidades to
Admiral PARKER and the Commanders of the several
vessels composing the British squadron in the Tagus,
and to Colonel WYLDE and Mr. SOUTHERN, the British
Charge d'Affaires.

The Diario announces that—" Her MAJESTY
desired by this dinner to give a testimony to our
ancient ally of the value she sets on the relations of
friendship which bind the two countries." The
Ministers and other official persons were likewise
present.

The Diario thus describes the state of Portugal at
the close of the year 1846 :
" Here, on the last day of 1846, we are without trade,
without authorities, without law, without security, with-
out property, without peace, without order, without
means, without credit, in the midst of bloodshed, loss of
life, and every calamity and disaster."
Accounts from Angola announce the destruction of
two slavers by the Portuguese war schooner Nympha.
The Portuguese troops in that colony had achieved a
victory orer the natives.

Madrid journals to- the sth have arrived.
The father of Senor OLozAciA. died at Madrid on
the 3d. His death, which, it is said, was hastened
by the treatment his son has received, has excited a
great sensation. Senor OLOZAGA is himself confined
in the citadel of Pampeluna, where he is retained

au secret.
The following are copies, in the original Spanish,
followed by translations, of the passport of Senor
OLOZAGA, delivered to him by the Spanish Consul
at Bayonne, and of the warrant of PIDAL, the
Minister of the Home Department, for his arrest :

" COPY OF THE ORDER OF ARREST.

" Ministry of the Government of the Peninsula,
Section of the Home Department.—(Private.)
"It having been intimated to her Majesty the Queen
that Don Salustiano Olozaga has made his way into
Spain, her Majesty has ordered, in concurrence with her
Council of Ministers, that he be arrested wheresoever he
may be found, and conducted to her citadel of Pampe-
luna, where he shall be detained until he is tried ac
cording to law by a competent tribunal. Captain D—,
of the Civic Guard, the bearer of this, is one of the per-
sons entrusted with the commission. It is her Majesty's
wish that the Political Chiefs, and other authorities to
whom he may apply, shall render him what assistance
he may think necessary. " PIDAL.

" Madrid, Dec. 28, 1846."

Notwithstanding the wording of the warrant, that
"he is to be detained until he is tried according to
law by a competent tribunal," it is generally supposed
that he will not be tried at all, but that he will be
sent back to Bayonne. Many of the firmest sup-
porters of the Ministry have expressed their disap-
proval of the arrest of OLOZAGA, and their conviction
of its illegality. To all remonstrances ISTURITZ re-
plies, that OLOZAGA is the enemy of the QUEEN.
The Chamber of Deputies is still occupied in inves-
tigating the validity of the election returns. On the
4th, in reply to a speech from the Minister of the In-
terior, PIDAL, defending himself from the accusations
brought against him of having unduly interfered at
the late elections, Senor MENDIZABAL made the fol-
lowing speech, which may be considered as the pro-
gramme of the Progressista Parliamentary policy :
" I have just heard M. Pidal declare that one of the
two consfluences of his administrative course is the
creation of a govemment. He ought to have said a
national government.' After an absence of four years,
I fancied, as I entered this ball, that j had been dreaming
