FROM LISBON.

The brig Charles, captain N1slDonr, sail
ed from Lisbon the 9th June, and brings
the following statement of transactions In
Portugal at that date.
The French armies under generals KEEL
lerman and Berniers, were advancing to-
wards Gallicia. Lord Wellington's head
quarters were at Celorico, the remainder OF
the army at Guaida, Francoza and Plnhel
The orders Of the ed instant were for the
soldiers to retain one shirt each, and to send
all the heavy baggage TO Coimbra. Exclu,
siye of the army under lord Wellington,
5000 men were at Portaolegre, commanded
byggnsral Hill, in the whole about 70 900
regular Portuguese and English uoops, be-
sides militia. The army under gen. Hill,
was becoming Jealous of the movements OF
part of the French army commanded by
Rrenier, who was advancing by way OF Al
betquerque with about $4,000 men. On
the 18Th and goth the French made incur
sions near Badaios, and succeeded IN carry
ing off all the cattle in the way.
Massena's head quarters were near I'm
dad Rodrigo, which place was invested by
the French. but no attack had been made i;
it appeared to be their intention TO force a
capitulation by famine, in which it was pro-
babe they would succeed, the city being
in wan, of every necessary, and would pro-
badly fall in a few days.
The French forces are estimated as fol-
lows, near Ciudad Rodago, undo, Mas
sena 10000; Or the frontiers of Gaiicia,
2o,oOo in the vicinity q Badajos 1900,
under Regnier. and abou: the same number
under Gen. Laborde. The English were
destroying the harvest Eherever they re-
rested.
There were FIVE lines Of defence between
Lisbon and the English army, in the whole
more than 1000 pieces of cannon. The
English have six men OF war. and from 3
to 400 transports. laying at the Tagus and
at Oporto, which were kept in constant rea-
diness for the embarkation of the troops in
case of repulse. A line of Telegraphs was
erected, by which intelligence of the army
on the frontiers could be conveyed to Lis
bon in hours. Deserters from the French
army were almost daily arrivingas Lisbon.
The inhabitants of Lisbon are very sam
guine of success.
By the Charles we have received Lisbon
papers te the 9th of June.
Left at Lisbon brig Louisa, M'Namara,
to sail for Alexandria ms days.

NEW YORK, Auguss 10.

By the Niagara, from Rio Janeiro, we
learn, that the Prince Regent was so much
pleased a, the arrival Of Mr.. Sumpter, the
American minister, that he, through his
secretary of state. made present of 1000
acres OF land to Mr.. Pintard, the American
secretary, and Mr.. Balch, the only Anne
rican merchant at that place. This act OF
generosity bespoke in strong language, the
qualification which the prince experienced,
on the arrival of minister from the y.
States.
