TrIF, NATIONAL REGISTER- . . . 4 . About the time that the corpse was lowering into the grave, the High Sheriff proclaimed that an hour had e lapsed since the reading of the Riot Act, and informed the multitude that those that did not instantly disperse should be taken into cle:tody as rioters, and some were seized who did not immediately obey, but we believe were shortly set at liberty, and the whole con course quietly dispersed: many more, we understand, were wounded in the various conflicts, and reports have stated several others to have lost their lives, but which reports we hope are un founded. " In the town, every poisible precaution has been taken by the corporate Magistrates to preserve the public peace. 46 A great number of the more respectable housekeepers have been sworn in special constables; and the Local Militia of the town were last night, at seven o'clock, noticed by the public crier, to attend imme.iately at the Riding Schoal, to receive the orders of their Commanders; a party of whom was stationed to do duty over their military depot, at the Durham x, in Pelham street." Troops are moving towards Nottingham from various parts of the kingdom : two troops of the 15th light dragoons passed through Stamford for that place un Sunday, from Colchester, where a route for them arrived by express at two o'clock on Friday morning. The rioters had acquired a great degree of daring by the success of several of their destructive and preda tory attacks, and it was apprehended would require a strong force to sub due them. The Ist and 2d regiments of Notting hamshire local militia had been called out, as well as the posse scomitatus by the Sheriff; and very vigorous measures have by this time, been taken to suppress this most alarming commotion. Three more rioters, Oesides the person before mentioned, had died of their wounds on Sunday. LONDON GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, MONDAY, NOVE \IBER 18, 1811. FOREIGN-OFFICE, NOVEMBER 18, 1811. Dispatch, of which the following is an Extract, has been received this morning by the NI arquis Welleslt y from Charlet Stuart, Esq. his Majesty's Minister at Lisbon, dated Novem ber 2, 1811 : The movement of Gen. Girard on Caceres induced Gen Hill to break up from Portalegre on 22d ult. He reached Albu querque on the 24th, and on the 26th his head-quarters were at I\4alpartida. Gen. Girard havi: . ; fallen back from Cacen son this day to Torremacha, was endeavouring to gain Merida, when Gen. Hill came up with, and surprised him at Arroyo dui M°- linos, on the morning of she 28th.—One column of the French had proceeded on the road to Merida before the corrupt ricement 'of the action,and although pursued, will probably be tnabled to cross the fluadiana, before the %rrival of our troops. Gel,. 1 : irard was badly wounded, and escaped to the niount.this with about 300 men, followed, by the Spanish corps under Gen. Murillo.— Two hundred French were killed, and one thouFand taken, in cluding Generals Bron and the Prince d'Aremberg, two Colonels, and forty Officers, with all their artillery and baggage. DOWNING-STREET, NOV. 18, 1811. -Dispatches, of which the following are Extracts, have been this day received at Lord Lititrpool's Office, addressed to his Lordship by General Viscount Wellington, dated Freueda, 23d and 30th of October 1811. Freneda, Oct. '43, 1811. The enterprise of Don Julian Sanchez, to carry off the cattle from Ciudad Rodrigo, adverted to in my last dispatch, was very well conducted anti very successful. During the night of the :4th he posted the troops near the places at which he had been informed that the cattle from the garrison were usuall y brou g ht • fo graze in the morning, and he expected that they would come o the ground on the left bank of the Agueda, between the hills • n the El Bodon road and the fort ; and he placed two detach etas of cavalry behind these hills. The Governor, General Regnauld, had come out of the fort and across the Agueda, at tended by some Staff Officers, and escorted by about cavalry; • and he was surrounded by Don Julian's detachments as soon as he entered the hills, and was taken with two of his escort, under the fire of the guns of the place. remainder of the escort escaped ; one of the Officers attending the Governor living been wounded. Shortly afterwards, Don Julian's detichmEnts on the right of the Agueda, drove otf the greatest nutnber of the cattle which had been sent to graze under the guns of the fort, en that side of the river. The enemy's troops in front of this army have made no movements of importance since I addressed your Lord ship last. A detachment of the Army of the North, which had crossed the Tormes with a view to plunder the country between that river sod the Yeltes, have returned to their cantonments without deriving much advantage from this expeditiono—l have 741 directed Gen. Hill to endeavour to force Girard's division of th -sth corps to retire from Caceres, as, in that position, they dis, tress for provisions the troops un der the Conde Penne V.llamui e and Geri. Murillo, belonging to Gen. Castanos. Lieutenant- General Hill was to move from his cantonmentson this expedi tion on the 22d.—By the accounts which I have received from Cadiz to the 15th inst. I learn that Marshal Suchet had entered the kingdom of Valencia ' from Tortosa,.with 20,000 men, and had advanced as tar as Nlurviedro ; he made three attempts to obtain possession of the fort of Sagunto, near that town, by esca lade, on the 29th of last month, in all of which he was repulsed with considerable loss, and left behind him his ladders. He was still at Murviedro on the 4th in t —ln the mean time General Blake had thrown himself into Valencia. .:).11 the strong hold's of Valencia were occupied, and the greatest eirorts were making to bring a large force into that kingdom, in order to annoy the enemy's communications with his rear. The utmost confidence appears by the accounts to be placed in Gen. Blake ; and the people of Valencia appear determined to co-operate in resistance to the enemy.—There has been no movement in the North since 1 last addressed your Lordship. Freneda, Oct. 30 • 1811. _ _ _ . . The detachment of the Array of the North, which was at Le desma, moved from thence towards Salamanca on the 28th inst. Excepting that movt inent, the troops of the Armies of the North and of Portugal have made none since I addressed you last. 'file last report I received from Gen. Bill was dated at Malpartida de Caceres, on the 26th. Gen. Girard retired from Caceres on that morning. By the last account* which I have received from Cadiz, of the 18th, it appears that 'General Belles teros had retired under the giins of Gibraltar; and that the French were at St. Roque, and had taken possession of Alge siras. I have received no farther accounts from Valencia. .It.apPears from all the accountc which I have received, that the Guerillas are increasing in numbers and boldness throughout the Penin sula o:.e par►y te,der Temprano, lately retook, at the very gates of Talaver.., Lieuit nant-Colonel Grant of the Portuguese service, who had been taken in the beginning of September in Upt.r Estremadura, whik employed in obseuvatiou of the ene my s movements Both the Empecinado and Mina were very suece-sits' against some tile enemy s posts and detachments, when armi e s were late. !
