MAY -1. -•••. 01 : the Atli Portuguese regiment, lost his left; and I am o traid I shall be deprived for a considerable time of his assi.tance. 'the SGth, 41it. 79th, and tilst regiments, lost considerable num bers and were highly distinguialied throughout the day. I cannot sufficiently applaud the ability and conduct of Marshal Si W.. ftt rear id thronghont the operations of the day ; nor that of Leiit,-Gens. Sur L. Cele and Sir H. Clinton ; Major-dens. Pack and L nib rt, and the troops mo!er their command. Marshal Sir W. beresfottl particularly reports the good conduct of Brigadier-Gen. D'Urilan, Q. ,11._G.; and Gen. Britt) Mozinho, A. G. of the Porta gor,t: hriny. The 4th division, although exposed on their march along the enemy'atrolir in a galling tire, were not so !Midi engaged ter the (Ali di visitor, and did not suffer so much ; but tkey conducted them seives with their usual gallantry. I lied also every reason to be satisfied with the conduct of Lieut.- Gehetal !)nn Manuel Freyre, liieut..Goneral Don Gabriel Mendi tuba', Mariscal de Campo Don Pedro De La Barcena, Brigadier General Hon J De F.speilata, Mariscal de Campo Don A. Oar-es J)e :tilareiila, and Chief of the Staff Don r. S `ilk:Tiro., and the Otlict rs of the Stall of the 4th army. The oll:vors and troops conducted memo elves well in all the at tacks'which ti:ey made sub e• pont to their being re-fornid. The ground not having admitted of the operations of the cavalry, they had 110 opportunity of chargina. NV:We the Wry:46nm above detailed were going forw ar d on th e left of t se aunty, Litait.-Gen. Sir U. Hill drove the enemy flout their ext.erior winks in the rb, 01 the left of the Garonne, within the aneieut wall. Lieut.-General Sir T. Picton tikewise, with the 31 division, drove the (mealy within the tete de-pont on the bridacail the canal nearest to the Garonne ; but the troops haying made an ( Alit to carey it, they were rcpulsed. and sonic loss wf:l /sustained. Alajor-Gen.llriYbalie was ‘Vt1111111(41, but I hope not so as to deprive mt• for aoy .length of lime of his assistance; and Lieut.-Colonel Forbes, of the 4atli, an officer of great merit was killed. • The army being thus estabbshed on three sides of Toulouse, 1 immediate tietaehed our light cavalry to cut off the communication by the only road practicable for carriag-es which remained to the ete_miy, till I should be enabled to make arrangements to establish the tioops between flue canal and the Garonne. The enemy however retired kit night, leaving in our hands Gen. Gen. Burrot, Gen. St. Hilaire, and 100 prisoners. One piece of cannon was taken on the field of battle ; and others, and ntitirs of stores *Wall descriptions, in the town. Since I sent my last report. I have received an aocount from ltrar..liinural Pe. rose, of the successes in the Gironde of the boats of the squadron under his command. Lient..Gtn. the Eail of Dalhousie crossed the Garonne nearly about thc time that Admiral Penmse entered the river, and pushed th e eoem: ,.s parties under rien. L'l hillier, beyond tile Dordegne. 11u• then eros,ed the Dordegue on the 4th, near St. Andre de Culm.te, with a uletichtiknt of the troops under his comm.md, with a view to the attack of the fort of Blaye. Hues Lordship found (;cii. I:tinnier and Gen. Des Barreaux posted near Etaidier?, and inatle disposition to attack them, when they retired. leaving abont ;;tin prisoners in his hands. I inclose the Earl of Dalirousie'% report of this affiir. En the opera , ion ‘vhich I have now reported, I have haul every reason to lie satisfied with the assistance I received from the Q. M. and Adj -Gen., and the officers of their departments reuspecti% ely ; from Nlmisc:ll Ile Campo Don Litmis Wimpten, and the officers of the Sp inish Staff, and from Major-Gen. Alava, front Col. Dickson, commanding the Allied artillery, from Lieut.-Col. Lord ntzroz,. Somerset, and the officers of my personal Staff. _ .
