LISBON, Scrr. 6.

Another Act of the Portuguese historical Com has
past, and the curtain has fallen offer the island '(Ma-
deira, which surrendered to the invading expedition on
the 24th of last month, after two date delay and two
days' struggle—in which, by mistake, ore oian was
killed, and one man was wounded. A Portuguese
packet, after a voyage of nine days, arrived this fore-
noon with the intelligence; and while some English
residents laugh with derision at the late bombastic pro-
mites of the Constitutionalists, and others ark curing
in ire at their cowardly defence, the Miguel'tes appear
thunderstruck at their good fortune, and some ate
dancing in the Government offices with joy at their
Sovereign Lord's success. and others are filing off
rockets in front of the Senate House and of the great
Convents. The ships and signal posts have the Portu-
-Buese colours flying, and they and the Castle have
bred a salute in honour of the day. The current ac-
count of the affair is, that the expedition, which sailed
on the 9th ultimo, arrived off that Wend after nine days
voyage. A frigate was sent to apprise the Goserno
Valdes of their art ival. and of their deter migration to
attempt taking forcible possession, and demanding to
know his intentions; he replied he would make them
known in two or three days. In the mean *bile, some
the most daring of the invading 'squadron ven-
tured to approach the shore, to see what opposition
would be made at Machico, a small landing-place
about five leagues from Funchal. Perceiving no obsta-
cle, they made signal to the squadron to approach, and
all linded with ease on the beach, where even men of
Madeira say that 200 men, by rolling down louse stones,
could repel 20000; but no re-issairce appeals to be
made on the first landing, and having climbed up the
precipices, the invade' s got into the middle 4,f the island.
Souse show of resistance was made on their approaching
Funchal, but it soon ceased. The "courageous.' Valdes
having fired one shot, fled on board a vessel in the bay.
Some call it a French one—others an English one; and
the people of Madeira have yielded. end shouted " Viva
Lion Miguel I. oar absolute King r Such is the re-
port circulated in town by the Captain of this packet,
and by the agents of the Government.
