Bills Is. es. pr. The Government Bulletin, which we published on Saturday, contains the substance of Lord WELLIN6- TON'S Dispatch, as it has appeared in theCazette. The successfhl assault of the fortified Convent in front of St. Sebastian's the moment the breach became practicable, is only another proof of the characteristic promptitude of the' Hero of-Barrosa. It is proudly gratifying to Britons to find the first Captain of our country and age seconded by Generals of his own stamp and decision. The Portuguese troops have unifortay proved themselves worthy of their British Commander, but never more conspicuously than in the late severe but gallant assault at St. Sebastian's. Hitherto every thing has gone well in the West of Spain ; but, if we - may credit accounts, said to have reached town of the same date as Lord WTLLING ZON'S dispatches, the farther advance of his Lordship will be attempted with, ‘ caution. The accounts to which we allude state, that Marshal Soma, who was some time ago called to the North, of Europe, has suddenly made his appearance in the South, to take the command of JoceDAWS . discomfited army; and that CLAUSIL'S carps ha&also effected its retreat into France, and formed a junction with SOULT; whose force is novPsnore than 50,000 men. • In consequence of this, it is added, that Lord Wsr... l ZINGTON had found it necessary to make a halt, and to reinforce himself by withdrawing two divisions from before St. Sebastian's and Pa mpeluna, Tire Litt may be so : but roe have no apprehensions of the enemy being able to wrest from our gallant Command*? the advantages altemly gained : it will only induce a change of operations suited to the cir cumstances. The enemy threw a garrison of 4000 men into Pare- Felon a the day the. British arrnY up. They thrust out all the women anda.hildren, and most *of the inhabitants. The goOr s fetches, carrying their all with them, passed thiciti6h the British camp, on their way to the neighbotaing-villages s in search of A - . an asylpm. In the East or -Spit,. the dramatis persona preseptj a more perplexing . groupe.

Secure had evacuated Valencia .on the sth July, and it was soon occupied by General' Eue. Some of the naming Papers, looking :oily at the Gazette, leave Liird 13ey•riseK three day's Toarch from that city, but it will be seen by reference to the Bulletin; in the STAR of Saturday, that Go vernment have received dispatches from his Lord ship, dated Valencia, th., lgth Jul;. All foe movements of the French armies in Valen. Cif and ....krragon tend to Catalonia, where they will 1..-.robai.ly take up positions favourable to a retreat into Prance; for we do riot believe that there can have. heed any c , :nitnunicitions received by Sucifax of the jt•SEPE'S diSCCIIIE:ed army by SOULT.---ii; in de.. d, it Le true that he has in any considirable de -wee this eject. Since we icing the above, we have ourselves te ;:tiveci lo , ters,of the s',iroe•date as the dispatches, and we have gr at pleasure in stating that they are of a vory diq'..retit complexion from some accounts to vlicn vie have alit:del, as our Readers will see by ese 6tibjoixtud letter ft6nl a e Officer : " Camp near Bent, 19th July. We try: Iffidcl.y pushing on the siege of St. Se t-astian's, as we know that the enemy are collecting an army, and vii!! raise it if they can. Every thing is to be c:pectett, as Lord WELLINGTON has COM :•,itte.l the t) , lsinusz :o his favourites, Colonel DICKSON tile A *and MAjtx SMYTH Of the Engineers, I»en of the first rate talents in their respective pro f:ssi,x)F.

" In the assault ot the Careen' attempted on the 15th, General Bradford. whp'vras the general officer of the day, commanded, ind.the troops employed were entirely Portuguese. " From the resolution of the enemy to defend the shattered remains of this building (by no means neces sary. to the defence of the town, and commanded as it is by'so much of our ground).* we are assured of their determination. to make a remit resistance, and that the siege' will , cost tit many broken beades4.rOn the seCot4:attiek df-the Convent,: on the. 17th; it was carrini(J)y ilk, 9th /t!ginient, headed by" Colonel CAMg4 • c. •'T • • r " It if; • .

" Lord WELLIWO,ToN has advanced with the whale of the a'trny, and is about to attack the French army which is in a strong . position - which covers Bayonne,, and is in front of it. The consternation in France, in consequence of the advance of the Allied Army, is prodigious." • New York Papers to the 23th of June were re ceived in town this morning. They contain little or no intelligence of importance, if we except a rumcur thatthe American Genet-al DEARBORN had committed into close custody twenty-seven Britisk prisoners, with a threat of putting them to death, by way of retaliation for excesses alledged to have been corn mitted in Canada by the Indian Allies of the British Forces. Jamaica Papers arrived this morning to the fist June. We copy the following article from the Paper of the 12th June : '• From the Havannah we learn, that accounts have been received from Mexico of a most gratifying nature : the King's army have every where obtained victory over the insurgents ; the communication be tween Vera Cruz and Mexico was again open ;. and it was expected that the new Constitution of Spain would be shortly sworn by the whale population of the country.

The inhabitants of all the seapprt towns live in, continual apprehension of attacks. and the wealthy among them have removed the bulk of their movable property to the interior. • FROM THE l'alltft OF THE 1'917!

The master of a vessel, flying from Cumana, uho had been captured by a Carthagenian privateer,• re ports, that the insurgents had gained the ascendency at Cumana, and the Marquis del Toro had, in dif ferent engagements, defeated the Royalists. The ex pedition against Santa Mattha had not sailed as late as the 18th instant. " We learn that on • the 4th instant the Spanish corvette bomb had arrived at Santa Martha, fivrtt, Havanna, with three vessels under convoy, having on board 500 nitn. Immediately as the Brigadier- Getteral landed, he dispatched a flag of truce to Carthagenia, offering to treat with the insurgents for peace, and offering them a general pardon. One of the !Carthagenan Officers, who had been made -pri_ sorer, was sent with the dispatches on the' above stibject." Private letters from Liverpocil, received this day, mention the arrival of a ship from America, which brings an account of the destruction of the Macedo nian and United States frigates, by Si: THOMAS HARDY'S squadron, off New London. • Ti ARMY. .
