Pyretteet as were then known. To-day we give his Lordship's dis patches at full length from the Loam Genetic La traorehary. The important operations which tenni minated in planting the British' and Spanish flags securely on French ground, occupied only two days; livery point being carried with that rapidity of move. *Rent which WXLLINGTON. and Wrua.matow obly, knows how to inspire. On the 7th, at day-break, the troops destined for the enterprite moved forward towards the Bidassoa. Sir THOMAS GRAHAM, at the head of the first and fifth British divisions, and the first Portuguese brigade, crossed the river in four bo. limns, bear its month ; a shitrt distance higher up, the 4th Spanish army, under General Flame, crossed in three columns. • The operations of the Allied Armies were corn idetely successful, and it is highly gratifying to us to learn from Lard *ELLINVON I S 'dispatches, that the Spanish end Portuguesf troops proved themselves kvorthy of the important service which they are now called upon to perform. While theta brilliant operations were going on to the left of towards the sea, the British light division under Bailin Atar..v, supported by General LONGA% division, ditacied the French entrenchments still hightr u 3 the river, at the past of Vera, as did the Andalusian army of 'reserve, under General those on the mountain la Rhune. The Pass of Vera was carried at the point of the bayohet, with a loss tb the enemy of 422 in prisoners, and three pieces of canndn. The Andalusian army established itself on the same ridge with the tressehi but the ditteme summit of the rock on whith they krere posted, was inictessible, at least for that even ing: ken day Lord WELL6GTON, having made a steavniainalste of the rock in person, directed an attitk on its right, and the Andalusian army carried it.— The French tamp at Sarre was subsequently stormed by the sank victorious army, and the enemy cbsap- Peaied in the course of the night from all his posi tions. Bin all thete important objects were not at tained without loss on the part of the Allies- betsina• IS and 1600 were killed and wouncltd„ The French must have suffered in a two-fold degree : they seem 1 1 / 3 have abandoned all their guns and positions with their usual alieritY, but, from the tntrtiber of priso eerie tfley 'Orem not so successful in taking themselves of as at Vittoria. A new Era in the militaty history of Europe has thus suddenly dawned updh ur. It is but a short twelvemonth slice the hopes bf mankind were limited to a natro* Siiizon—the genius of Lord WELLING. *tut the IMoism of the Russian armies were the last remaining anchors which afforded us a chance of riding out the st&tti. But Moscow Was in flame!' the Russian court its bad packed up their valuables for retnoiral froM St. Petersburgh-m-Cadiz was born- barded by a FrenCh army, and Lor4 Wituanorox, after immortalizing himself at Salamanca, was com pelled to retrace bis Steps to the Portuguese frontiers. What 1 tow ilk ttnidition of Europe, and what gre twig/I:Mt prospects ?—Boaae.taza, out of an army (accordhi to his own calculation) ambunting to 600,000 men, with which he advanced tfi the Elbe, has lost upwards of 200,000 men withitt the short period Of g ft* weeks. Be is now cooped up in Dresden, with but few chances in his favour of a successful retreat upon the Rhine. The whole of turope is now in arms against him ; Spain is deliver.; tdi and; thoegh last not least, FRANC E I S INVADED ! but while we point to the brightening prospect, or indulge in the brilliant inticipations ttrhieh will natu rally 'preient thernseltes to ardent minds on this topic, let tis not debacle ourselves with the absurd idea of subjtsgating France. Lord WELLINGTON, in his dis patches, affords us no gtounds for such anticipation. His forward movement Into the French territory will nevertheles, if conducted with caution and judgment, de more than subjugate France—it will have the -ffect cif making the abject and degraded population of that fine Country" acquainted with' the evils 'which they have been the instruments of inflicting ':icon %t ter nations.
