OPORTO, Aram 1?.
Here we are again, with brigs of war in the river for
protection, and the :ekes on the frontiers, and most
usforiunately equally hared and despised by both par-
*. The spirit of the Quezn and Don Miguel is most
Curious against England, and that of 'their party gene-
rally hu,tile. The country is tolerably quiet, but per-
lecithin has begun, and when the ci-devant rebels come
la there will be sad work here. The troops are still
Constitutional, but corruption is in full progress. We
stall probably be tolerated for a time by Don Miguel,
and see may be safe ontil he completely throws off his
titguise and feels strong enough, through our weakness,
to hid us defiance, which he will certainly do if he ever
loathe opportunity. Meantime the friends of the Con-
!Mation are now our mortal foes, and they too may
one some day.
Our situation is one of considerable danger, and de-
