PoLTUGAL.-We have important intelli-
gence, with accounts from Lisbon to the 29th,
and Oppurto to the Both ultimo.
The Telegraph received by way of Paris
and Madrid announcing hg.insurrection Of
the 0pporto garrison on the 25th Of April,
is fully confirmed. No contest took place,
and but three lives were lost.
Marshal Saldana entered Opporto on the
9th qlt., and was greeted with the most en-
thusiastic reception by the entire city, which
turned out to meet him.
The insurrection in his favor was spread
ing in all parts of the kingdom. The troops
were unanimous for his cause, and were
marching to join him from all points.
The King had left Coimbra, and was re-
treating upon Lisbon. Most of the forces
under his command having pronounced for
revolution Immediately after the news OF the
Opporto revolt was known in the Capitol
Count Thomer's Ministry had resigned, and
the Count fled from Lisbon, having been
conveyed from .hence to Vigo in the British
Mail steamer Montrose, where he remained
watching the turn Of events.
The queen thereupon entrusted the forma-
ton of Ministry to the Duke Of Ferara,
but twas thought the Duke would decline.
Fears were entertained, of the rising Of
the populace unless, the Queen should gently
take steps TO clothe the victorious Saldana
with full power to form new Ministry,
and it further feared that Saldana would re-
qlire the abdication of the Queen, or the
PROCLAMATION of Regency.
A Spanish army Of observation was col
lected on the frontiers.
AUSTRIA A.-From Vienna we learn that q
note had been sent to Constantinople demand
ing the detention for two years longer Of
fourteen of the Hungarian Refugees Aus
tina offered to bear the expenses.
The latest advices from Vienna and Ber-
lin give us a clue to the probable termination
Of the Dresden conferences. The Prime
Ministers of Austria and Prussia were to be
presented.
1t is stated in some of the German jour
nails, that fresh symptoms of agitation are
perceptible in Hungary. A letter from vi
emma states that the agitation is confined tc
the question of Tobacco monopoly, which
encounters much opposition.
