LISBON PAPERS.

LISBON, OCT. 24.—We have given no accounts of the
liberating army, because no movement of importance has
taken place, nor any event worthy of attention. It is no
part of our system to make vague declamations, without
any reason but to deceive our readers. Realities and facts
,re the only foundations on which we shall give our
opinions. We shall spare no pains to collect them, but
when we do not succeed in this we judge the talent of
inventing them much beneath honesty.

We know for certain that the situation of our enemies at
Santarem is desperate. Some days ago the want of every
thing, especially bread, began to naake the soldiers feel the
dreadful effects of hunger, which have been for some time
felt by the wretched inhabitants of that town, because all
there is, is lint little for the troops.
This distressing situation will soon be aggravated by
the season. Santarem is an island of mountains, in the
midst of vast plains, some of which are inundated by the
overflowing of the Tagus, which renders them impass.
able; others are converted into marshes by a fall of rain,
and others covered with water by the overflowings of the
many ditches which traverse theta. Where will they be
able to get provisions ? The liberating army, occupying
the eminences from the Castaxo to Az9ia, has intercepted
the roads by which the enemy might escape or receive
the necessary subsistence, no road remaining to him but
that of the Campo, which the Tagus will inevitably dis-
pute with him. In our opinion, it was a measure of
consummate prudence to suspend operations against San-
tarem, where, in the absence of spirit and courage in the
rebels, the nature of the ground favoured them, the place
being difficult of access, and this advantage might
even animate their desperate cowardice, and render mere
dear to us a victory which is always certain. In the
distress in which we see the unnatural usurper and his
ferocious soldiers, we think that an event not distant
will put an end to the deluge of evils anddisasters in which
he has plunged our unhappy country, and which would
have been wholly ruined, had not the invincible arm of
the saviour of legitimacy, the immortal giver of liberty,
rescued it from the abyss.
VILLA FRANCA, OCT. 24.—This town enjoys unin-
terrupted tranquillity. It does not appear that the
rebels have made any movement since they concentrated
their forces as much as possible in Santarem. Nothing has

SITUBA.I, OCT. 24.—The greater part of the force
which the rebels had at Alcacer, was ordered to St. Jago

de CasPem, where they lately received a lesson which
they will not soon forget. That place has now a sufficient
force, not only to defend itself against any attack on the
part of the enemy, but to meet and vanquish them. The
rebels in Alcacer do not amount to 600, men for the most
part without discipline, or the organization necessary to
resist the attack of a regular force.
The rebel Remechido, one of the most barbarous and
sanguinary commanders of Guerillas, m ide another attack
on Lago, but was again repulsed, with the loss of above
300 men, and fled with precipitation and disgrace.
LISBON, OCT. 26.—The Gazette contains a circular
to the Minister of State, and the public departments
which it concerns, from the Minister of Justice ; " in-
cluding copies of the decrees of July 30, 1532, and
Aug. 13, of the same year ; the first abolishing the tithes
paid by the landowners and farmers of these kingdoms ;
the second regulating the future amount of the property
of the Crown and of the orders, in order that your Ex
cellency may give orders to carry them into effect, so far
as your department is concerned, that the people may, as
soon as possible, know and enjoy the benefits which they
well deserve from them, and have this additional reason
to bless the efficacious solicitude with which the august
Regent of these kingdoms endeavours to promote the
general felicity of the nation, which he so wisely and pru-
dently governs in the name of the Queen.
