Much alarm at present prevails here, in
consequence of official intimation to the Rr;I
tish merchants of the necessity of removing
cncir property and persons as soon as possible.
Several of the Portuguese men of war. are
ready for sea, but it seems vet doubtful if the
Prince will embark for the Brazils. The
Commander of the Raven, which is stationed
outside the Bar, has directions to cause all
vessels that may arrive from Newfoundland
to wait at Cuscaes Bay, until an answer he
! received from the Corsignees. The Iiyelv

"By the arrival of the Walsinp,hani from,
Lisbon this morning, all the doubts relative
to that city are cleared up. On the 25th ut,
Lord Strangford, our Charge d'Affaires, and
MIR Gambler, our consul there, called a.
meeting OF the Factory, and acquainted it's
Members that the ports of Portugal would
shortly be shut against the British, or rather
that tic country would shortly be shut against
the British, or rather that the country would
be invaded by the French.
"Of the intention cf the Portuguese 20
vernment with respect to embarkirg for the
braz;is, nothing certain was known bat it
was generally understood that the three men
OF war which had tirop't down to Belem, to-
gethe1 with several frig1tes and corvettes,
were intended TO take the ROYAL family, in
case OF necessity, to that country This idea
was strengthened by the payment of the bills
on the crario being postponed for 5 months,
LITIGATION at Pcnicha, on the coast of Portu-
GAL mounting 200 pieces of cannon, and gar
rlsoned by COCO men, from whence it is sup
posed the Court would embark, to avoid any
opposition from the popu!ace by attempting
to-efHbark at Lisbon.
There was, however, still a ray of hope
entertained By the Portuguese, that the tyrant
OF the Continent woad be appeased, when
he found the English had quilted Portugal,
and that the fear Of having their property
contscated, and their persons seized, would
prevent their return and consequently, that
the departure of the Court, from its hcredi-
tary .''At, would not be necessary. This hope
they cherished the more, as it was known at
Lisbon that the French and Spanish Minis
tiers had only proceeded few leagues from
the City, and were still halted at a small VIII
lage in its Vicinity"
