ENGLAND AND PORTUGAL.
Lisbon, Feb, 13
The Portuguese press violently attacked the British Consul at Oporto, for declining to recognise the challenge issued by Signor Andrade. The feeling against England still exists, and yesterday being a month since the English ultimatum was received, many of the shops have been draped in mourning, evidently as testimony of sorrow the proprietors feel in the submission of the Government to the demands of Lord Salisbury on the Zambesi question.
London, Feb, 13
Lord Salisbury’s despatch on the Zambesi dispute characterises the alleged Portuguese title as bogus, and points out thet it has not been asserted for centuries. Ho also remarks that the Treaty of Berlin does not apply io the African dispute.
