women, and even several children, had the address and the good fortune to Ave themselves by throwing themselves on the naked swords of the Arabs; others plunged into the llames of the burning houses: twelve hundred, who could discover no way of de-troying themselves, fell into the hands of the enemy. The attention of the conquerors was soon drawn to the powder magazine. Tne size and the solidity of the building induced them to believe that the wealth of the inhabitants had been there deposited.

Saratoga Sentinel, Marchioness de Chaves. This lady, of whom we have heard so much of late, has accompanied the Portuguese insurgents in all their movements, and supported tneir courage amidst all their difficulties. She holds the commission of captain in the 7th Cacadorcs, and gallantly appears at the head of her company, both in the camp and in the field. Much of the success of the rebel cause has arisen from the b Idnessof:r councils, and the intrepidity which she inspires into the ignorent peasants, who have been misled by their loyalty or superstition. On the advance of her troops from the north, detachments of two constitutional regiments, under Zagallo, were defeated and dispersed. The colors of these regiments were carried to the Marchioness, who has made them into a dress, which she intends to wear on gala davs and festivals.

Somnolency. Jane Shaw, commonly called the sleeping beauty, a young woman of prepossessing appearance, the daughter of a peasant at Aike, near Beverly, was lately in a profound sleep for eighteen days, during which time the animal functions were entirely suspended, and the only symptom of life was a very feeble pulse. For a day or two previous a considerable aberation of mind had been observed, and when she awoke she was very languid and childish, but a fev? days restored her loa good state of heaMb, both of body and
