s'ho conducted thrmseivee remarketly well. They were aided by - Captain Rainstord's company of the Royal Artillery, who were indefatigable; some of them having never quitted the batteries. I a m much indebted to General I,eite, the Governor of the Province of Alentejo and of Elvas, for the assistance Nvhich he a2ain afforded me in this operation. inclo.e a return of the killed and wounded throughout the siege, from which yoiir Lordship will observe that, excepting in the atreniets•to obtain possession of St. Christoval, our loss his not been • evere. We still nylintain the blockade of Badajoz. I ha-e not yet heard that the enemy have moved from their position at Lierena, ana I imagine that the arrival of the 9!ti corps has been detained longer than was expected ; and it is probable that Sault will be unwilling to move till he will hear of the movement of the army of Portugal. They broke up from the 'formes on the 3d, and their ad vanced guard arrived at Ciudad Rodrigo on the evening of the 'sth. They moved again on the 6th, and Lieutenant-General Sir Brent Spencer withdrew the advanced guard of the troops un• der his command first to Nave d'Aver, and then to Alfayates. The enemy patroled on the 6th into Fuentes de Honor, and into Nave d'Aver. I inclose Sir Brent Spencer's report of these operations, from which it appears that the Royal Dragoons, un, er I.ieut.-Col. Clifton, ant .1 troop of the 14th, the whole directed by Major- G..n. Slade, distinguished themselves. • I imagine that the enemy's march in this direction was in tended as a reconnoissance, and to cover the march of a convoy to Ciudad Rodrigo; as on the following day, the 7th, the whole moved from thence to Moras Verdes, in the direction of the Pass of Banos, near which Pass Gen. Regnier had been with two divisions of the army of Portugal, since the sth. On the Bth, in the evening, one division of Gen. Regnier's troops had (-pine through Banos, and I expect that those divisions will have arrived at Placentia on the 9th, and the whole army on the 10th. THE NATION. - P. S. Since writing this dispatch, I have received accounts that Gen. Drouet's troops joined on the enemy's right .at Ber -1 lima and. Asuaga yesterday, and a report that their cavalry were in movement towards Los Santos this morning. The B itish cavalry, and the f../c1 and 4th divisions, were about to irch from Villa Franca and Almendralejo towards Albuera, .and I have ordered there General Hamilton's division, and proceed there this night myself, if l should find that report c :mitred.
