Downing-streer, August 20, 1808. Sir—This letter will he delivered to you by Capt. Lefevre, whose talents as an engineer will be of much use in accelerating the survey of the military line of the Asturias, and the principality of ;it. An dero. The examination of the country to the east ward of St. Ander° is hardly of less pressing im. portance. In addition to an examination ofthe.principal roads by which the enemy may attempt to penetrate into either of these provinces, which upon the map appear to be limited to the road from Burgos by Reynosa to St,Ander, and that through Leon to Oviedo, it is de sirable to ascertain what the facility is of lateral corn immication between these two lines of operation— that is, how far a corps in the Asturias can move to support one in the Montana, and vice versa ; and fur ther, how far a corps, pressed in the Asturias by a superior force, can fall back on Ferrol. The inclosed will point your attention to what immediately relates to the Asturias in a defensive sense. I should wish you, however, to extend your views to the practicabi lity of offensive operations, and to state your opinion upon the comparative advantages of a forward move ment upon either of the lines above referred to, or whether a line more to the eastward can be looked tn. In considering this question, you may take it upon the two suppositions-Ist, of 20,000, and, 2cfly, of 90,000 British troops being disposable for this opera tion. You will observe the defensive view of the sub ject is taken upon the supposition that only 10,000 men are at present applicable to service in the North of Spain, which must be considered as the limit, till *our operations in Portugal are terminated. You will feel the importance, as our army will have to depend altogether upon the resources of the country in xhich they act for moving their supplies, of avoiding, as far as possible, an extended line of operations.. I state the embarrassment to be the transport of the prowl ions in the interior, as I can have no hesitation in un. dertak,ing to meet all the wants of the army whilst on the coast. I should be glad to know what number of trans. ports may be conveniently sheltered in the S ports of Gijon and St. Ander ; and whether cavalry can be , disembarked at either place. You will also apprize me, without committing the Government, what the disposition at present is of the Juntas of Asturias and St. Ander, to receive the co-operation of a British corps, either for offensive or defensive purpose , . You will also inform me of the state of the climate which may be expected in the ensuing months—during what period the troops can continue to operate without un duly exposing their health—and what covering they may expect to find when they can no longer keep the field —what influence the climate is likely to have on the operations of the enemy—is it to he expected that they will be compelled to suspend operations dur ing the winter, or is it more likely that they will con tinue, as has been their habit in other countries, with -out interruption in the field ? You will communicate, as early as possible, your sentiments on the points above stated, as well as any others which you may deem material, to Sir Hew Dalrymple, or the Officer commanding in Portugal, as he will be instructed, under certain circumstances,' to act without waking for orders from home. What measures would you recommend for encou raging Biscay and Navarre to rise ? If you see a prospect of a diversion so important being produced in the rear of the French armies, you will address yourself, on the subject of arms, to Sir Hew Dal rymple, and the Juntas of Oviedo and Gallicia ; 50,0(X) stand having been lately forwarded to the latter authorities for the service of the Northern De. partments of Spain ; and 30,000 stand, together with 30,000 pikes, having been sent with Sir Arthur Wel lesley to Portugal. Can you contrive, by some confidential Spaniard, to open a communication with General Palafox in Arragon, for the purpcse of ascertaining what his situation and means are, and how far he could co operate in breaking in upon the French line of opera tions en that side, which seems to extend for not less than 260 miles, taking it from the frontier to Segovia ; and as they have to guard both the Victoria and Pampeluna roads, a number of light corps of armed peasantry, I should apprehend, would either intercept their convoys, or compel them to waste much of their force in escorts. I have the honour to be, &c. To Major Gen. Leith, &c. (Signed) CASTLEREAGH. Downing-street, Sept.l7, 1808. Sir—Fourteen thousand pikes have been embarked, and consigned to you at Gijon. They are destined for the use of the peasantry in the province of Biscay, or elsewhere, as may be most advantageous ; and I am to desire you mill take such measures for the dis tribution of them, or for storing them, as, under ex isting circumstances, you shall consider most advan tageous fur the general service.—l have the honour to be, &c.

The strength of the corps may be estimated at about 30,000 infantry, and :500X) cavalry, and they will carry a large. supply of provisions with them in victuallers, but will of course require to be supplied with cattle on their arrival. Sir John Moore will be directed to send a Commis sary from Portugal to superintend arrangements. — Till his arrival, the Commissary attached to the troops under Sir David Baird's orders proceeding from hence will act. In the mean time you will proceed to make ar rangements for the reception of the troops from 'lease, which may be expected to sail in the course of a few -days from Falmouth.

Downing-street, Sept. 25,1808. have to acknowledge the receipt of your let ters noted in the margin, which have been laid before the King. I have the satisfaction to communicate to you his Majesty's entire approbation of the zeal, diligence, and ability with which you have hitherto executed the duties entrusted to you, and I trust you will continue to use your utmost exertions in prosecuting the im portants objects of your mission to a sussessful result. I have to acquaint yciu, that his Majesty has de termined forthwith to assemble a large force in the North of Spain, under the orders of Lieutenant-Ge neral Sir John Moore. As it is not deemed adviseable that any part of this corps should be committed in operations till the whole can be assembled and equip ped for service, it has been determined to send the force now assembling at Falmouth, under Sir David Baird, to Corunna, there to meet the force which is ordered to proceed from Portugal to compose a part of Sir John Moorc's army. A Deputy Commissary, Mr. Assiotti, assisted by Col. Hamilton, of the corps of Drivers, has been sent into the Asturias and the Principality of Santander, to purchase horses and mules for the British army ; in the prosecution of which important service you will render them every aid in your power. The horses and mules can be forwarded in such di visions from thence, as may be most convenient to the cantonments of the British army. Feeling all the importance of your suggestion with respect to strengthening the force which now covers the Montana, I am happy to acquaint you that the Marquis of Romano has consented to order his army from Corunna, consisting of nearly 10,000 men, to be disembarked at: Santander. As this corps is entirely composed of veteran and - highly disciplined soldiers, I trust its utility will not be confined to its own exer tions ; but, that by an incorporation of the trained ,peasantry in the Northern provinces, it may give im mediate solidity to an army of much larger amount. The Marquis proposes immediately to triple his in fantry, by forming a regiment of three battalions upon each battalion of his present force ; and I have as sured him that he will receive from you every aid in doing so. The total want of regular force, both in Asturias and the Montana, to form even the basis of I any army, will, I hirve no doubt, render the arrival of this valuable corps, a matter of the utmost satisfae tion to-those entrusted with the chief authority Of those provinces ; they will feel that in no way can their present force be to usefully employed, as by be-1 ing consolidated with so large a body of regular Spa nish troops, and I should hope, that from the distin guished name Oral character of the Marquis of Ro mano, who has recently given so important and in teresting a pledge to Spain and to the world of his devotion to the cause of his country and of his Sove reign, those provinces will be anxious to place so ex perienced an Officer in the chief command of their armies. I have given the Marquis de Romans as surances that you will concert measures with the Bi shop of Santander for the reception and accommoda tian of his troops upon their arrival. They proceeded down channel yesterday with a fair wind for Corunna, from which place orders will this night be sent for their repairing, without loss of time, to Santander.—' You will feel the importance of laying the ground, • without: delay, for- inducing the Government of the Asturias and that of the Montana to unite their armies with that of the Marquis of Romans.
