" The Marquis de Angejaverites from his head cyan.
ters in the Pousadouras on the 2.,J, and detailing pre-
ceding circumstances says, that en the 21st of this
monh, the advanced posts df Colonel Zsgallo, placed
in the Ferrol, and on the bridge of blisarella, wtri:
attacked by a force ashore .500 men, commanded by
the , rehei Aeostinho Cachapuz, who calls himell
Colonel,' Scc,&e. This force was composed of veterans,
dismounted soldiers of the 6th and 9th regiments of
Cavalry, aad many peasin.s Well armed with Eloanil
arms,' cchnni 'tided by Utficeis• of veter ins and of ca.
vAry. The first *tack was noon the Fe 4.11, which
briPel,y defended by some companies of the 9th
regiment: of. infantry, commanded by (:captains Jose
Luiz de 11.ito, Duarte de SA Ozorio, and feenteriasst
Jtise Brandao de Castro, a hich 'companies stets' sup-
ported by some chasseurs Nd. 12. Major Le ipol xr
'says, the Marque, was at the same time ordered to
occupy the bridge of the Arco,- and the tear, of Us,
tebels being thus thecateuedohey were beaten and dm-
pers:d. The rebels left behind five killed and 16 pri-
soners, and our soldiers had some wounded. Colcroel
Zagallo gives the greatest praise to all the troops that
he commanded. 'lite inhabitants of Haitian afFnsled
the most generous assistance to all the soldiers who o e e
engaged on that day. The Marquis de Angeja says,
that Colonel Zagallo, who directed those movements,'
deserves peat praise.
g, The Matqois de Angeja writes front his head-
quarters' at' Braga, on the 26th, saying, that having
ordered General Jose Correa de 'Mello to cause some

reconnoisances to be made-on the roads leading to the
different points on the line of the Tamego, they were
made on the 24th. Major Antonio de Goutrea e
concelloz marched with sixty men to Telhldo by
Quembro : this force of thi 21st regiment of foot, united
_ _

with a detachment of Chasieurs. No. 10, defeated in
that direction large corps of guerillas, who left four
'dead no the 'field, and fife prisoners including an En-
' sign. The whole corps merited the commendations of
its commanders. Captain Ozorio, who advanced by
othe road ol Montealgie, beat in Paradella another gue.
tilla, from which he took some provisions and horses,dtc.
• The detachmerts which marched between the Salto
and Caves also mrt with several guerillas, which they
repulsed and defeated. The 12th regiment of Infantry
behaved bravely in these action,.
• I'he Tame General continues, saying, that the regi-
ments of militia of the province of Tras-os-Montes,
having repassed the Douro, and the guerillas .being
almost as numerous as the population, the movement of
General Mello could not be made with the rapidity that
was desired.

Colonel Ignacio Pereira, of the Regiment of Ore se,
has approached the frontier with his guerilla, where he
saw a great many Portuguese rebels in almost all of this
province of Minho, some Spanish forces having ap-
proached Ilia frontiers of the same province..
"General Azeredo writes on the 27th from Toddella,
which he es:tered the same day, the vanguard of the
rebels having retired from k, after having plundered
some houses in the town. The same General writes
that he had information that the corps of the rebels
was retiring ftom Viseu by the read of Mangualde. •
.8 To-morrow (says the same General) I continue my
march towards Viaeu, and thence I shall follow the re-
treat of the rebels, it not being possible to overtake them
unless they stop in some position, because they are five
'leagues in advance of me.'
Count de Villa Flor writes from Ganda, of the
25th of this month, announcing his march to Celorico
as the beginning of further operations. The same Ge-
neral wrote on the 94th, that the Militia of Lamego and
Miranda, united with 40 Chasseurs and 40 horsemen of
different corps, and some Guerillas, endeavoured to
oppose bts entrance into Guarda, but they were coura-
geously beaten by the battalion of the Ist Regiment of
Foot and Chasseurs No. 6, flying precipitately in the
direction' of Almeida. The 'forge of the rebels was
commanded by Viscount de Mutellos, President of the
Junta established in Guarda.

1 have learnt,' says the Count, that Almeida was
in the hands of the rebels, and from all that I have learnt
respecting this affair, I conclude that the fall of that
place was owing to the illness of General Pego, and
still mare to the disloyal conduct of Colonel Eiezeario,
of the 10th Regiment of Cavalry. Magessi was at
Almeida; Tellis JorJao at Ausur. Guarcia was nearly
deserted, a great part of the inhabitants having left it
with the rebels, and ethers being obliged, like them,
to do so.
