Several private le;,e,s received from
Lisbou, by the Albion, mention the proba'
bii,,y of 40 insuTecsioa among the popu'
lace, if the prince regent should Psrslstini
his determination in shipping himself and
his treasures for the Brazls. This VIC
think extremely likely to happen; not'hal
we imagine the Portuguese would much
care what would become OF their prince;
but, we .hink. they must be rousedwheo
they see the treasure abou, b:ing convey
