I believe you have everything correct.. I also think you have all of Barbara Florinda's name because I believe the next words are Forão padrinhos... (godparents were...). As for the dates, baptism is as you said, 9 Aug 1868; birth is certainly October 1867. I think I see the word primeiro (first) but I'm not sure because the bleed-through on that line is terrible. I think that line starts with the name of the parish then says "no dia primeiro do mes de Outobro"
