I enclose a letter of the 1 21st inst. which I have re- coved from Marshal.sir William Beresfeftl, contain. big ilettir from kletseral .Crizan -to Marshal Snult, which had been intercepted by some of our patties. • General Gazan, himself wounded, was marching ''-virith the wounded;' and froth his Itccount ofthose with him, from the account of thaw at Almendralejo, and those Irft on the ground atAlbuera, from the num. Mrs found dead on the field, and the prisoders, the Marshal computes the enemy's loss not to f.tll short' -of 9,000 men.—l hve the honour to be, &c. waLLINOTON. Mv.l.oaso Camp near Albnera, May 4.1. I have the honour to transmit to your Lordship' e accompanying intercepted letters of some importance. After the severe battle we had, it is satisfactory to know that our calculations of the enemy's loss were not exaggerated, and you will see by General Gazan's letter to Marshal Soult, that in killed and wounded it cannot be less than 8,000 men ;—left dead on the field and taken, we have the knowledge of near three thousand; General Gazan .states that he has more thm, four thousand wounded with h im ; three hun dtWand twenty were at Almandralejo, by the same F letters; Gazan says many have died on the road, and which we know must have been the case, as it is in t i the few first days that the bad cases die in numbers, and a precipitate retreat and want of convenient ear lriage must. encrease the mortality ; thus we can i scarcely calculate the loss of the enemy from these ' data at less than 9,000 men. Our advance was close to Azuchal and A lmendra- Tejo, and I propose putting a strong column of infan , try in march towards those places to-morrow morn ing, and shall accompany it. I hive, &c. (Signed) w. c. BERESFORD. TRANSLATION. - • Albers, 19th May, Ist, Monsieur le Marechal—l have the honour tore. port to your Excellency, that I am just arrived with the whole of the column, which is infinitely sooreihn rnerous than I could have believed. I am endea. v outing to organize it, in order to avoid disasters, and particularly plundering, which would make us die of hunger, and which I found at the highest pitch this., morning upon my arrival at Almendralejo. I found upon my arrival here a letter from M., Le Normand to Major D'Aubersac. I annex it herewith, after having acquainted -myself with its contents. As I imagine that it can be only the 9th, corps wisich is at Allmaraz, I write from hence to the' Count-d'Erlon, in order to induce him to hasten his march and to join you. However, as it is also possi. ble that they may be troops belonging to the army of the centre, 'commanded by General D'Armagnac, Write to him likewise, in order that he may move to wards you. I send an answer to CiPtain . Le Normand, to intimate to him that he should correspond with yottr Excellency, Major D'Aubersac having rejoined the, army ; I have ordered him to collect - a large convoy of provisions,, and to accompany it to you, that it may' the more securely reach you. The great heat Will do a great deal of harm to our wounded, the number of whom amounts to more , than 4000; especially as we have only fire Surgeons , to dress them.

The GAZETTE details of the Bank of the 16th amply confirm all the hopes which we had raison to entertain from the cbeeringeonots rhich preceded . - it. The loss of the Allies has indeed been great, bat that of the enemy far outnumbers it. The stiperiCtiti of the enemy in cavalry, gave him idvantiges in his . retreat, which secured the wreck .ot his discomfited army i but even in this description of force,* it was numb. rs, and not valour, which saved him g fOr• the handful of cavalry which the Allies broiaght into the y field ably seconded the efforts of their brethFen in arms, In addition to the very coplous details publishect in the Go: .:, the following particulars, fin* the belt ' authority, were yesterday circulated : • " After the dispatches were written, it was ascertained that - the force of the enemy did not amount to less than 30,000 inert, and thq left on the Held of battle nearer 2500 dead than what is trated. Upwards of 700 wounded were leftlry the enemy, and he is so pressed by our cavalry, that he was obliged to abandon many more to their fate. Marshal Soutr boasted, in General Orders to Ms army on leaving Seville, that he was going to melt and defeat the British, ad likewise repeated the same verbally ts hls troops. A copy of this Order was found on General Will LE, .W:10 Wall killed, and the latter was' affirmed by deserters and 9Firir.m • • . . • " The British in the battle scarcely amounted to eight thou sand —the Portuguese to seven thousand—the Spaniards from tea to alerts thousand —making in the whole about twenty-six thou sand men.
