NEWS ?SOX SOB ISLAND UP' TIMCIIIIIA AND =II

The Portuguese bombarding Soceorro, from the island of Fop,
brings news from Terceira and the squadron. The Doss John VI.
has rendered important services; it bas detained a yacht, which
bad news and letters from England for the rebels, and also an
English brig which had a cargo of provisions and arms ; and lastly,
a schooner which came front the island of Terceira itself. On the
6th of June the boats were sent to take possession of a yacht
laying under the batteries of the rebels ; but, after some smart
firing on both sides, they were obliged to retire without effect-
ing their object. The next morning, however, they succeeded
boarding it, and returned to the skip In spite of the firing
of the rebels, who were enraged at seeing a ship snatched front
them in the sight of the sentinels, and under two fortresses.—
By the schooner which came from the island, it was known that
there was a great scarcity of money, tobacco. and arms, in the
island, which caused muck discontent among the soldiers, and
obliged the dicers to be very vigilant, as it was certain that hi some
places there had been cries of " Dos Miguel for ever I" which the
armed force had endeavoured to put down with moderation ; that
the principal families of Angra bad returned to their country seats.
Every thing was scarce in the island, especially money, sothat they
bad melted the bells to coin paucoons, to which the Dentinal value
of 100 roes was given.
The whole number of vessels that bad been detained was three
English and two Portuguese.
On the 9th of June the boats again returned to the island, and
captured a lock of 42 sheep, notwithstanding the lire of the rebels,
and brought the prise with great joy on board the ship. It is known
that such confusion prevails anises the rebels, that on the 29th
!slay last they assassinated Jeronymo Montle° Pamplema,brother of
the Conde de Subsets*, who acted u Minister of Justice In the
Government which they established there.
Front the above fact, it may be expected that as soon u t►e ex-
pedition sent to the island appears, the rebellion of the traitors will
cease, and the peaceable inhabitants enjoy the repose and traniuMity
which we sincerely wish them.—Correie de Po*, .tutee 30.
