SIR, • Shrewsbury Chronicle Office, July 1, 1809. AMONG the numerous testimonieTs to the benefi cial qualities of the CORDIAL BALM of GILEAD, in this neighbourhood, two have come within our notice, a tew days ago. Thomas Roberts, of Wilmington-Hall, Esq. in this County, men:ioned that he had for some time been-affiicted by ill health; he had lost his appetite, his breath was short, and his cough vio lent and long continued. By taking three bottles of the Cordial Balm of Gilead he was restored to health and strength. Mr. Roberts moreover said, that during the time of taking this meth cime, he perceived one of his tenants, Mr. Wheathill, labour ing under similar complaints; and by giving him only two doses, he was perfectly cured. Another confirmation of the efficacy of the Cordial Balm of Glad, we received from the lips 01 Mr. Izzard, of Shawbury, near this town, whose complaints were somewhat similar to tho-e of Mr. Roberts; in addition to which, however, le had an al most total stoppage in his throat, and a difficulty in breathing. Two bottles completed his cure. _ _ ..• These testimonies were unsought, and unsolicited by 11.4, and the Gentlemen now appear in perfect health. Im am, (for Mr. Wood), yonr's respectfully, . HOWELL.

SPAIN. INTERCEPTED LETTER FROM MARSHAL SOULT TO JOSEPH BON A l'A We have received an entire copy of an intercepted letter of Marshal SOULT to JOSEPti BONAPARTE ; it iS of cr , nsiderable length, and occupies ten quarto pages • , f small print. Some parts of this letter have al ready been given, but it is worthy of more ample ex tracts. Marshal SOULT begins his letter with stating the march of the army from Lugo on the 2d of June, and details various operations of minor importance, until his arrival at St. Clodio, he then proceeds as fol lows : ‘• After the actions of Montiferrado, Lavocces, and Puente the whole of these insurgents were dispersed in the moun tains ; hut those which Ns-, re in San Clodio continued their agres sions, and took advantage of the situation of the town, which is on the bank of the side opposite San Martin de Quiraga, to keep up a continual fire on our column, which was obliged to defile within . half cannon shot by the right bank; this occasioned it some lots; the N a b ra , being passed, I ordered General Loison to send 4 de tachrnent to Sall Clodio to burn the town by way a chastisement fr • ;of-moss conduct of its inhabitants '; I also directed him t.) ::&:: to Castro de Cald4s, to make a similar exam -I;,a. the :,:tassitation of ari horie chewers of the 15th • rugl PMCE SIX PEZ:L ~a~.: rrv~:t~ mefit, which took place on the Zd of F. ruaty, and in wisici: t;. inhabitants of Sin Clotho, Puebla de Tribes ; and Cuba, j,4io.d; tho renoiw of these unfortunate men were found, and havi collected them, they were placed near to an inscript;on wh;-•h r,— curdelthe or this just vengeance. General Lc:I:on pans Boned the inhabitants of Puebla de 7•t !hes, who came i body : 4 acknowledge their rventance, and:promisiog tc cunduct them. wive!' property for the future. [Here follows an account of his movements, till he gained intelligence of the position of the Marquis of Romana's army, which was stationed between the Gudinha . and Viana—he then proceeds.] " In any other circumstances,l shutild have followed Rpm3na. although to overtake him, and compel him to fight, would wasted considerable time ; but, as I had the honour ot your Majesty in my letter of the Stith May, I cousids red tl a► after my retreat Loin Portugal it could not be my duty to remein in Galicia, where moreover 1 had' rib means of supplying n.y troops, and furnishing them with the necessaries they requited; where there was no place (except i.errol and Comma) in *deb I could deposit the great number of sick who followed the rile meats, and whom I was obliged to convey on theeorses belongrog • to tni• cavklry ; I ahio consitt.red that the English army, which • had advanced to line° at the time of my retreat, had r:- - turind suddenly to Prutugal, with the avowed purpose end , design of marching against Marshal Victor, sod proceeding lo Madrid; and that it might easily have effected either of tirose movements, coking for granted that they no longer appeared en the frontiers of Gal I, anti only one corps of Poe iuguese had joined Romana. On this supposition,lt was of the utinosi cons.. quence fur me to advance to Atmore, in order to co-operate with the troops which are between the Deura and the Tagus, in covering Madrid. I considered alio, that I would not fail to be nigh a place ,wll.:re I could deposit my sick, receive succours, and might rest hays in order to continue oper..::onsilterwards, and act according to circumstances.—Such was nty lineation on the : , :oth May, when I wrote to your Majesty, and I at ranged my operations with Marshal Ney according to this plan, the 6:h cor•l.s secs to retake Vigo, and to send a column to t)rense to commu nicate w ith me. If elk movement had been executed, the cups u• Rontarra, would him been much endangered; but M.aahal. Ney wrote me from Santiago on th•t loth, that tuvrng followA tae enemy to the bridge of .ranipayo, he tourist him entrenched on the left bank of the Caldilas, the brolge broken, and a force of . truth 10 to 1 2,000 Elm', of whom 3 r,r 400 b were ut the one, and the rest peasants, tle whole under the ,eiders of Iretteral rs moo s, •General in Chief of the army of Minho, and Generals Mort to and Carrera ; that the Eeglislr had two ships and three l'ettes us the bay of Vigo, whose crews were on sour, at,d Lau arged . . _ - - themselves with the defence or the place, as 111}.:.wase uuh the entrenchment which had bet n mrin.24.l on toe puha of Runua ; and in short, that he hall not thou g ht prrper to proceed in h:s a. ack, or to send to Orense the column which %se nad agreed that he was falling back upon Santiago, and stationed his ced posts in El Padron, observing the right :molt of the ::A•,- ; tie moreover wished to persuade me to remain at valucia, and r pre sented the fatal consequences which might ensue abalutin.ed it. This proposal astonished me, and it appeare,:, to tie that Marshal Ney aced purposely to oblige me to rennin in Gallicia, since cer tainly nothing could prevent him maiacuvring towards Orense, while I advanced against Romana, atter the 'vier i:ad remated he might have taken Ca r.ia in LA, and cut 613 . his troops, ur com pelled him to embark precipitately, hut he acted 'entirely contrary, and from that moment I have thought mys:ll obliged ni,se than before to pursue my first design, and to continue the movement we had agreed upon." [Here again .follow some detailed operations of little consequence.] • " On the 24th al/ the troops of the corps of my array formed a junction in the eniffoess of Velala de Sanabria, where I intetid to halt them for four or five days, in this time we shall collect pro visions, repair the shoes, get the horses shod, and shall again threat en Portugal—perhaps, I shall also send a detachment to make an incursion towards Braganza, with a view of making a diversion, which will not fail to producesome good eWect. I shall not there fire set out on my march till the 29th or et.th of this month, and shall arrive on the Ist or eel of July at Zamora. I earnestly entreat your Majesty to be pleased to send thither your orders, and the supplies which i had the honour to solicit in my letter of the 30th May. Before I finish this relation, I shall take the liberty of making some observation; to your Majesty, relative to the present state of Uallicia . The i'rovinccis in continual ferment; the threats of fire and sword made use of by Rotnana, the multitude of agents who act in his name, the number of exectitiens they make, the inevitable devastatiors caused by the tit Lewitt met :meets of the troops, the ruin of tee greater part ot the inhabitants, the w ,nt iif euthurities to rej resent to your alajesty, theinilueece ot the Aele,y, of whom there is 4 great number, and alines: ail ene mies—the motley which the English circulate—the poverty, of the French Generals, who, for want 01 . means, cannot fre e In ently pay their emissaries—all these causes contribute to aug ment the euniher of enemies, and to render the war in this country very sanguinary, infinitely disagreeable, and of con sequence still very remote. ei long warfare must take place before your Majesty can derive any etivottege from heece, unless your Majesty adopts the system of tortityitig seven or eight im portant places, capable of containing from sto sec men each, an hospital, and four months previsiun for the popuestion Ike principal passes should besides be closed and guarded, so that in future the enemy may not take advantage of them. The columns which act in the province would thus have points of support, and in whatever direction they moved, they would thus be eitabled to receive supplies, and to take care of their sick ; this last conside ration is extremely urentr, end I ought not to conceal from our i\lajesty that it ha; a great moral iiifluence on the soldiers, who, in the present state of things, find themselves exposed to perish with misery, or by the sobs of the peasantry, if they have the mistor tune to be wounded or attacked with the fever, being far from a se:ure place where they mighebs taken care of. " l think, by expending a million, Gallicia might be placed its this state of defence, and c rtainly money could not be better em ployed, inasmuch as in future the member of troops which are now requisite might be reduced. Convinced of this, I have en gaged with Marshal Ney for the forti'ying of Lugo, and the con struction of three blockhouses on the line of Villa Franca. " The towns of Fuy, Mon tforte, Monterey, Viana, and Puebla tie Sanabria, which may have cannot:, which have walls and rt. ioains of fortifications, might easily be repaired, and would fully answer this object, and it it be requisite, there are also other ituintin, which by their sea:it:ion might contribute to the defence without greatly augmenting the expenses. If these measures which I consider as urgent And of safe consequence ale not adopted, it will be necessary to send reinforcements to Marshal Ney, though it should be merely for the sake of supplying his losses, and of maintaining a free communication notwithstanding at pre sent he has a farce sufficient to oppose the troops of Romans and Carrera united, in case they should present themselves in that fern ; but the system of these being to harass incessantly and to avoid a general engagenseet, it would in the course of time ex haust the s - rongest army, and in case of not being supported would finally destroy it without the necessity of battles; thus iafuties numbers would be lost without obtaining the end proposed. - 1 " It is probable, that I shall not yet have an opportunity pf speaking to your Majesty on the subject of Gallicia; for avidek reason I have thought it my duty to avail myself of this occasion to lay before you the observations which ray residence in this part of your Majesty's dominions, and the knowledge I haveacquited ot the character of itkiethabitants,have afforded me.
