On the 14th, having determined to attack General Schwartz in Bisbal, he divided his troops Wino* corps, one of which he put under the orders of the Marquis de Campoverde to act as a reserve and prevent the enemy's escape, and himself proceeded, at the head of the other, and with the utmost rapidity, to Bisbal where the enemy shut themselves up in an old castle. The cavalry immediately invested the town ; and the infantry . entered it, occupied the houses close to the castle, and, both from them and the steeple, opened upon the enemy. Their number, however, being very small, and the castle still hold ing out, General O'Donnell determined to set fire to the gates, and, as he was advancing to reconnoitre it, was wounded in the right leg by a musket-shot. Ge neral Schwartz protracted his defence until sun -set, but at that time surrendered with the body of men under his command. In the course of the day, seve ral of his patroles which were coming back, and a re inforcement of 132 men who advanced from the side of Torruella, had been charged by the Spanish ca valry, and taken or dispersed. . While this was going on at Bisbal, Colonel Fleyres, who had orders to surprise at the same time the garrisons site r..sec u o r f is S g . 414• Fel 4 iu et t . l i e cta G n u ent ixol o s t. a .rr n oevi d 4:ly Palamos, va a ra t" t te i r t. sending Colonel Aldea against the latter with part of his division, marched against the former with the re mainder ; intercepted an express sent to General Schwartz to inform him, that the guns of the small fort on the left of the harbour, and of that of San Telmo had been shipped off on the preceding night ; and succeeded in . approaching to within pistol-shot without being discoveredby the enemy's sentry, who, then seeing him so near, supposed him to belong to the French army. The Colonel availed himself of the mistake to make his dispositions unmolested, and suc cessively entered the town, his drums beating the charge. The sentry, now undeceived, gave the alarm, i and the enemy began to fire upon the Colonel'sl troops ; but the latter, disregarding their fire, moved rapidly through the streets to the beach, halted there, drew up in column at the foot of the rampart of the small fort on the left of the harbour, marched up with the greatest intrepidity, and so overawed the French, that they agreed to surrender. Four barks laden with a 24-pounder and warlike stores were also brought to the beach and delivered up. On the other hand, Colonel Aldea was carrying on his operations against Palamos. His detachment met 'with., greater resistance. The enemy held out, for a ihile, outside of the castle ; but, a charge of the bayonet having driven them in, they kept up, from their new position, a very brisk fire of artillery and musketry, for eight hours together, in such a' manner that the Colonel's troops were left without ammunition. Aware of the danger to which he might be exposed, if the enemy should find it out, he' immediately resolved upon storming the place, and effected it with such resolution and quickness, that the French had no time to fire their guns, although ready loaded, and were all taken prisoners to a man. The boats of the Cambrian and Diana, and the Fe luchos supported the attack with their fire ; and the former frigate had one of hers sunk by the enemy. ' Master of St, Feliu and of Palamos, Colonel .Fleyres, pursuant to 'his instructions, marched upon the castle of Calonje, where the enemy had fortified themselves ; and, upon his informing them, previous to proceeding to acts of hostility, of the surrender of the above , vaendoftecl places and of .

BELLINZONA, NOVEMBER 4. All the colonial produce in various parts of Ger many, so soon as suspicions were entertained of the riew tarn impmed 'by. the Sovereigns of that country, was sent into Switzerland, from whence it was trans-. ported to the Italian Bailiwicks to be conveyed into Italy. The-Viceroy ordered these BailiWicks to be occupied by an Italian division, under the command ' of General Fotanelli. . In one of these Bailiwicks, that of Mendirtio, Thiel) is contiguous to Milan and the delosiche: of the plain, it is said a great quantity of colonial produce and . British merchandi•.e were seized. BANKS OF THE NECKER, NOVEMBER 4. The King of Wurtemberg has given orders, that ell British manufactures found in his dominions shall be burned, as well as those that may be imported hereefter. 'Yesterday the English manufactures seized at Stuttgard were publicly burned at some distance( from the town, in the presence of an immense co*; coarse of people. COPENHAGEN, OCTOBER 27. The report is confirmed, that on the Ist of Nhvem ber a part of the Danish army, consisting of 30,000 men, will receive leave of absence until spring ;--so that during the winter no more men will remain with each regiment than is necessary for the common duty. This prudent measure, as we have no longer any enemies on the Continent, will be a great relief to our finance ,, , and cooperating with/ the measures that Lave Leen adopted respecting the exportation of color produce from the Duchy of Holstein, will bring- the course of exchange, which has fur some timebeen: agaiftst us, again in our favour. • OCTOBER e 7.
