THE FIGHTING QUALITIES OF THE PORTUGUESE.
The fighting qualities of the Porto- guese, who, as their President bas
announced, are, to render assistance in France, were made manifest during the great Peninsular War of a century ago. Throughout the terrible campaigns of 1812, 1813 and 1814, Portuguese troopa shared the labours and glories of Wal- lington's army, anul on more than one occassion turned the scales of victory by their valour. Wallington had a grost admiration for the Portuguess section of. his command, particularly the brigades organised under "Bradford, Beresford, and Pack, praising them unstintingly in
writpatches, and on one ocCRAIO
The Portuguese are now the fighting cocks of the Army."
