herself issued from a shop in view OF the
whole party. For an instant she seemed al
most thunder-struck ut the unexpected
meeting; but in the next Instant she rccov-
cred her self-possession, and walking dciiU
eratelyup TO herparamour, she eOolly placed
her arm within his. The husband became
doubly eXasperated Mt this additional insult
and his friends found it necessary to restrain
him by main force. After much alteration,
however, the lady was separated from her
sseducer, partly by persuasion and partly by
force, and two post chases and four being
procured, she was broughtto town and safely
lodged in the house of her father ID.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Feb 1O.-A long time
since the Pacha OF Egypt found himself
wrestling with the hordes of N,b;a and the
Mamelukes, who devastated the country
for the plumber. lie lately gave to his SON,
lsmael Pacha, the command of an armed
corps OF 5000 men, who took up his march,
and encountered the enemy at Eve days
march from Dongolah. The enemy op-
posed him with an armed corps of about
1000 men, infantry and cavalry. 4 bloody
combat elsued, many men being killed,
wounded and taken prisoners and, ALTHOUGH,
Vlctcrolis, the L lcha was constrained to re-
main IN the interior of Nubia. The PachI
conducted the principal prisoners to his
camp, andmade an address TO them, in which
he endeayoredt to make them know his power
and that of his father he then made to them
rich presents, and sent them to their homes.
recommending them TO tell their chiefs, that
if they would be tranquil, and submit theia-

army of lsmael Pacha was cnfecbled by the
combat; although ii was true, he had been
victorious, the result was not certain hia-

Gulph of Arabia, ard Abyssinia, in order "a
take their flight TO Morocco, by the great
desert OF Africa, if necessary.
The officers OF the Porte have circulated
report which was communicated TO the
foreign ambassadors, that the army of the
grand seignor had gained wonderful vic
tory upon the troops of Ali Eacha, and thar
the Tartars had carried many sacks full! Of
heads to Constantino9lc. These reports
have been considered false for several DAYS:
and we learn that Oh the contrary,thc troops
of Ali Pacha had made a sortie upon
the camp Of Pacha Bey, and came near
taking HIM. The troops OF Ali Pacha, having
driven the Turks from The field, pushed OIL
to Preyesa, where they were Joined by G00o
Albanians, eager to enlist under the banners
of their old master. THE first report was
undoubtedly untrue, as the Soi-Gisant tro-
plies of the Tartars have not been placed,
as usual, up at the Seraglio.

much opposition. On the 18th article be
inS proposed, Mr.. FerraO took occasion &,
introduce the project of decree, in The
preamble TO which he represented the evils
that had accrued to Portugal, both in it,
riches and population, from the expulsion OF

In the sitting Of the ed, a very important

the Legislative add the executive, which he
proposed, he said, that the cortcs may adopt

and give 1t such form and attributes as thew
should think suitable, and that the SPAN

power, such as another chamber but sew
raj members thought that such an object
might be attained by giving the king an al

Mr.. Trigoso rendered Just homage TO his
majesty, and weighing his duties as a deputy
of the nation, said, that the power of the
King was extremely limited by the article in
