COIMBRA, JULY IS.
PROCLAMATION OF ADMIRAL COTTON.
" The undersigned Admiral, commanding the
fleet of his Britannic Majesty on the coast of Portu-
gal, loses not a moment to make known, that he has
received an express from the loyal inhabitants of
Sines, and to assure them, as well as every true and
loyal Portuguese, engaged in a just, honourable, and
glorious cause, such as the re-establishment of its
rightful Prince, that all the support lying in the power
of his Britannic Majesty's fleet shall be given.
'. Captain Smith, commanding his Britannic Ma.
jesty's ship Comus, is charged to deliver this express,
and instructed to proceed to Sines, in order to lend a
prompt aid immediate assistance.
.. The British Admiral undersigned can assure the
inhabitants of Sines, and the whole kingdom of Portu-
gal, that the most energetic, valorous, and decisive
efforts have been displayed with the' completest suc-
cess to frustrate the perfidious designs of the French
against the independence and even the existence of
this nation. The French ships in Cadiz have been
battered and compelled to surrender to the brave
Spaniards-7-the people are in every part risen in arms
and the result cannot fail of proving glorious. Simi-
lar energy mast be attended with the same success in
Portugal, and thus will the inhabitants of both king-
doms hold an equal right to the esteem, applause, and
admiration of Europe.
" The undersigned has received deputations from
the provinces of the North of Portugal, already hi
arm" swearing to re-establish the Government ofl
their legitimate Prince, and to resist their oppressor'
At Oporto; Viana, in Entre, Minhote,Doio, and pait
of Beira, 100;000 Portuguese have risen in arms—.
and if their gallant countrymen k the South unite
themselves to them, they cannot fail overthrowing the
small band of Frenchmen now occupying the capital;
but to vanquish, unanimity is requisite—let them not
be intimida..ed by menaces, or colnipted by promises '
—let them bravely and resolutely determine to rescue
themselves from oppression, and to restore the Go-I
vehement of their lawful Prince.
General Junot has even in his last edict, of the
26th of June, fabricated the most sanguinary threats
against the inhabitants of Portugal—they are threat-
ened with the destruction of the most loyal and popu-
lous cities, and their inhabitants doomed to the point
of the sword by a handful of men, amounting at most
to ten thousand, bearing no comparison to the popu-
lation of Portugal. Woe to the criminal oppressors,
if the loyal Portuguese encounter them fearless—the
righteousness of its cause must triumph. Noble en-
thusiasm pervading the ranks can never be daunted,
if all access to. seclaction be precluded. A vigorous
rezistance cppjo:ned to the energetic efforts now ex-,
erring by your valorous neighboiirs and. friends, the
Spaniards, resolutely engaged in the same glorious
cause, must have the happiest issue—as yet there are
thousands in Portugal anxious to emulate the deeds
of their forefathers in loyalty and glory. I repeat it
to each loyal Portuguese, that all the aid, of which
his Britannic Majesty's fleet is capable. shall be given's
in behalf of a cause so just, glorious, and honourable
• as the restoration of its lawful Prince, in whose nam2i
the Standard ought to have been raised in the South,
as has le en done in the North, for all the loyal to re-
pair to.
Given on board his Britannic Majesty's ship HThelllla,
anchored at the mouth of the Tagus, July 1, MN.
(Signed) 1. CIIARLES COTTON."
.11.77. v 26.—General Loison passed through Carval-
los on the 18th, with part of his troops, and three
pieces of artillery, having fled from the neighbour-
hood of Leiria, for fear of being cut off by the Spa-
niards, v.ho have entered Abrantes. At Villa Franca
the French found 150 feluccas, which they were car-
rying to Lisbon.
JULY 28.—We have just heard that on the 26th
appeared off Figueira the English expedition of 70
sail, with troops and arms to assist us against oui
enemies. We have just received the imorortant news
of Dupont's surrender. •1

:that General Loison passed through that city, on his
way to Lisbon, in a miserable condition.
OPORTO, AUGUST 9.
We have nothing new since my last. Portuguese
troops are marching down to Lisbon daily. Colonel
Brolt, who was left behindiset Of this morning for
• ,
Figueira, where Sir Arthur has disembarked 4000
men, and will continue disembarking at fast as they
can get quarters ready for them. Some httastued
mules are going down to Figueira for the use of ISir
Arthur's troops. It is said here, that 9000 troopi
from Gibraltar ate arrived off the Tagus to assist Sir
Cotton. The Spaniards have completely routed
the French, as you will see. •
P.S. I just • open the letter to sayr that all the
troops are landed at Figueira, and that General
Spencer, with five thousand man, arc also landed
at St. Übe's. This is official. The• convoy is just
