Those to the 26th make no mention Of the disease having found its way into the garrison, aleiough they state that the necessary precautions had been adopted by the Commander to prevent - the in troduction of the disease. Others of two days later date state, that it had actually broken out. All the letters agree in ascribing the failure of the expedition under Brigadier-General Lord BLANC to a fatal mistake on the part - of the Commander. of the Forces, who mistook the enemy for Spaniards. In addition to the particulars which we gave yesterday, others will be found in Gibraltar letters given in an -othqr column of this paper.
