we learn that the day before sailing, the
'own was Eliminated in consequence of
victory obtained by the Constitu,ionalis,s
over the Royal party in the district of
Iras Monies, near Oporto. 1t was said
hat the general Of the royal party was
taken prisoner, and that most of his forces
had gone over to the side of the Con-
stitutionalists. This battle was regard
ed as putting an eLd to the civil war in
Portugal. Baltimore american.
An arrival at Baltimore from Lima
and Rio Janeiro, brings unfavorable in
telligence from that quarter. The ex-
pedition which had been sent from Lima
against the Spaniards in Upper Peru,
had entirely failed, and the Patriot army
was SO signally defeated that their cause
was looked upon as lost. Great dis
'ress prevailed, specie had disappeared
and paper money was at discount of SO
per cent. The Spaniards, it was thought,
would soon regain possession of Lima,
as the patriots we're destitute both of mo-
ney and troops.
