SATURDArs 'LONDON GAZETTE. i f.. it I •1: . • Foreign Office, Nor. 11, 18C9. A Letter, of which the fnlloowing is an extract, was this day receivrd,by Earl Bathurst, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of State'for Foreign Affairs, from Lieut.-Colonel Carrel, dated Army of the Left, Camp on the Height of Tamames , , Oct. 19, ISO 9. ' have the honour to acquaint you, that the army of Marshal Rey, now commanded by General Alarchand, advanced on the morning of yesterday, in force ten thousand infantry and one thou-and two hundred cavalry, with fourteen pieces of artillery, to attack this army, which was most judiciously posted on these heights. The enemy divided his force into three columns, which advanced against the right, centre, and left of our line; it soon became evident that the principal object of his attack was to force and turn our left, it being the point in which our potAtion %;t weakest. The enemy, at the commencement, gained some advantage of position on our left, in c4,msequence of the retreat ► of a small party of our Cavalry, - *tined to cover the left of our line. This success, hOWCVer) t‘' . llS tuotuentary) as the vanguard, led . THE NATIONALfitGISTE*,. NOV. lt. on by Generals Menclizabal and Carrera, charged with the greatest spirit of gallantry, routed the enemy, and retook at the point of the bayonet, six guns, of which the enemy pos• sensed himself during the retreat Of the division of our cavalry. The vanguard in this charge committed great slaughter amongst the enemy, taking from them one eight-pound - gun, with a quantity of ammunition, After a long and obstinate contest, the enemy, being unable to gain a foot of ground, began to give way in all points. About three o'clock in the afternoon* the 'enetny betook himself to a precipitate and disorderty"flight. • The loss of the enemy, as far as we have been yet able to as exceed, one thousand, in killed and prisoners. • 'The numbers of the wounded must be very considerable. Our losS has been comparatively very trifling, not 'exceeding three hun dred ; one Imperial Eagle; one eight pourider brass gun; three ammunition waggons; twelve drums, with four or five thousand stand ot arms ; an immense quantity of ball cartridge; carts of provisions and knapsacks loaded with Wander, fell into our hands. No language can do sufficient justice to the gallant and intrepid conduct of the troops on this memorable day ; it would be impossible to make any distinction in the zeal and ardoUr of the different corps, for all equally panted for the contest. The vanguard and first division, however, had the good fortune, to occupy these points ag ainst which the enemy directed his prin. cilia! efforts, and to ad fresh laurels to the wreaths • they had acquired in Lugo, St. Jago, and San Payo. The steady intrepidity displayed by the second division, thrOugh whose ranks the party of retreating cavalry passed, and the Spirit and promptness with which it pushed forward against thc enemy, who had at that moment turned, our left, is deserving of the highest approbation. The entire of the• cavalry, with the exception of the party attached to the vanguard, about three hundred, who, from being overpowered, 'were obliged to retreat, evinced the greatest steadiness and resolution in main twining the post allotted them, and •keeping the enemy's ca valry in check. It is, however, to be lamented that our cavalry did not find themselves in a situation to enable them to take advantage of the enemy's disorderly flight across the plain between these heights and the village of Carrascalejo, 'a league in extent ; for had five or six hundred horse charged the fugi tives, the victory would . have keen most decisive. The van guard of 'General Baltesteros's division is in sight; we oily wait his arrival to pursue, aml annihilate thediscomfited enemy. prisoner' we learn that General Marchand proclaimed at Salamanca, his intention of annihilating, .by two o'clock on the 19th, thirty thousand peasant insurgents. His orders to his army were, on -pain of death, to possess itself of the heights by twelve o'clock, as he praposed•proceeding to de. stroy Ballesteros's division, after having dispersed and annihi lated this army. The Freud' General certainly appears to have held this army very cheap ; judging from his plan of at tack, which was far from judicious, but executed, to a certain point, with the greatest bravery, and with that intrepidity which the confidence of success inspires. Our light troops pursued, and hung on the enemy's rear ; several parties of which, amongst whom were two hundred of the.regitnent of Ballastro, have not returned as yet, having expressed a deter mination of hanging on the enemies flanks as long as the cover of the woods afforded a facility of so doing. The number of the enemy's dead already found and buried, amounts to up wards of eleven hundred. Several; no doubt, will be found in the woods. • wm•im •••• The Gazette also contains accounts of the capture of the French Privateer, Rodeur of 16 guus and 121 men; and the French corvette Le Milan of IS guns and 115 men. The former was taken by his Majesty's ship Seine, and the latter by the Surveiltante. •• ••• BANKRUKITY ENLARGED.
