I don't speak Portuguese but here's what I make of it.

Date of bap: sete di Junho = 7th June      mil oito novente nove = 1899
d.o.b. quatorze Abril = 14th April
filho legitimo = legitimate child of Gabriel and Maria Valenti

The name at the end,Angela Valente, is probably the witness/godparent.

Thank you very much! I really appreciate you taking the time to look at it. Thank you

Thank you, CF1981.  Scotlands People gives the date of baptism as 1819.  Burn appears to be the name of the house.  Latin phrases are quite common in the writing of lawyers, and Presbyterian and Episcopal clergy of this period.  I have adherents to both faiths among my Scottish ancestors, but no Roman Catholics that I know of.  A working knowledge of Latin was a requirement of most university curricula in the era.  Jane was the older sister of Grizel or Grace McCallum who was my direct ancestor.  I have attached the record of Grace's baptism record.

It says James McCallum is from Clarkston, which is an area of Glasgow if that's any help

Ah right, I am a Roman Catholic myself... And was always under the impression that the Calvinist churches were very anti-anything to do with Catholicism, like statues and crucifixes and Latin, since that is the official language of the church, I will bear that in mind, thank you.
I would say, Burn in Scotland is a name for a small river.... That may be something to do with it. I'll have a look at the other document you posted

Hi, I found this entry for Gabriel and Maria Valenti from Brazil. My GG grandparents names were also Gabriel and Maria Valenti (from Italy), and I'm having trouble finding anything about them.
I'm beginning to wonder if they went to South America like many Italians did at that time, and then I found this....
I can't even make out any letters that could be put into translate 
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Probably a NCO and not an officer as he is posing with a rifle. Going by the British Army he looks like an Italian Lance-Corporal. But that is a wild guess. Scroll down to very last image and that might give rank and choices of army units. On the bottom line (right of the trumpeter) there is an X image  badge similar to the X image which is near the plume of the hat on your photograph.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. He's actually holding a sword. I should have cropped the photo a bit better, sorry. Thanks for the link, I'll have a look it
