MY Loam--In pursuance of your Lordship's in structions, I .put the troops under my orders in march from their several cantonments, and entered this province on 'the 27th instant, by Albuquerque, Villa de Rey, and St. Vicente ; and by the intelli gence which I received from various quarters, I was led to entertain the most sanguine hopes that I TO TIMBER. MERCHANTS AND RUILDF.RS. should have been able to surprise . the enemy's troops TO RE SOLD BY PRIYA FE CONTR ACT, I stationed in this town. I was, however, disappointed, AN extensive Forest of FIR. TIMBER, in Pee- in my expectations, by finding in La Nava, on our hies-biltre, Scotland, situate 011 the Banks of the River Tweed, and only' ti miles from the Port of twilit, where there is ' approach to that village yesterday, with the column every facility for shipping i t to the London Market. This Forest Alb uquerque, a party of theenemy, from contains Trees of large dimensions. being considerably • more of about three hundred voltigeurs and a few hussars, than one bun.lred years growt a autl fit fur buildings of every de scriptmii.

LOW% post paid. • 'taut. I invested Ciudad Rodrigo yesterday. Since the enemy have had possession of the place they have constructed a palisadoed redoubt on the hill of St. Fraitcisco, and have fortified three convents in the suburb, the defences of which are connected with the work on the of St. Francitce, and with the old lime by which the suburb was surrounded. By these means the enemy have increased the difficulty of ap preaciditg the ears; and Jt was necessary to obtain possession of the work on the hill of St. Francisco before we could make any progress in our attack.— Accordingly Major-General Craufcrd directed a de tachnient of the light division, ander the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Colbourne, of the 52d Regi ment, to attack the work shortly after it was dark. The attack was very ably conducted by Lieutenant- Colonel Colbourne, and the work was taken by storm in a short tim9 ; two Captains and forty-seven men were made prisoners, and the remainder of the garrison were put to the sword. We took three ieces of cannon. I cannot sufficiently applaud the iconduct of Lieutenant-Colonel Colbourni, and of lithe detachment under his command, upon this occa sion. lam happy to add that our loss in this of it 'has not been severe, six men having been killed ; I Captain Mein and Lieutenant Woodgate, of the 52d, Lieut. Ilawksley, of the 95th, and fourteen men ) having been wounded. The success of this operation enabled us immedi ately to break ground within 600 yards of the place, notwithstanding that the enemy still held the forti fied convents; and the enemy's work has been turned into a part of our first parallel, and a good com munication made with it. Lieutenant-General Hill arrived at Merida en the 30th of December. He had 'hoped to surprise Ge neral Dombrouski (who I had been led to imagine was killed in General Hill's last affair with the enemy) in that town ; but his advanced guard was discovered on the 29th, by a patrole from a small detachment of the enemy, which happened to be at La Nava, which effected its retreat to Merida, not withstanding the efforts of a detachment of Lieute nant-General Hill's cavalry to prevent it. General Dombronaki retired from Merida in the night, leav iug a magazine of bread, and one hundred. and slaty tboueand potluck of wheat in the town, and several unfinished works, which the enemy had been constructing. On the Ist, General Hill moved forward with the intention of attacking General Drouet, who com mands the sth corps, at Almendralejo. Ti.is Ge neral, however, retired upon Zafra, leaving a ma gazine in the town, containing four hundred and fifty thousand ;muds of wheat, and some barley. — On the 3d, Lieutenant-General Hill sent a detach meet, consisting of the 28th regiment and two s4uadrons of the 2c.1 hussars, and some squadrons of the 10th Portuguese cavalry, to Fuente del Maestre, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Aber cromby. Our cavalry defeated a body of the ene my's cavalry which was there; having taken two officers and thirty men prisoners. Lieutenant-General Hill having found that Gene ral Dcouet had retreated upon Llerena, and that it would be impossible for him to follow to a greater distance', returned . to Merida on the sth, in order to place the troops under his command in better canton ments, during the bad weather. I have the honour to enclose letters from Lieute nant-General Hill , of the 30th of December 7 2d and 6th of January, giving an account of his operations, returns of killed and wounded, &c.

As I considered the intercep'ing of the entire of this party to be Gf the greatest importance to eur ulterior operations, I directed the tavalry above mentioned to make every effort to etrect it, or at least to check its march uatil toe arrival of some in fantry. 'The intrepid and admirable manner, however, in which the .eene►^y retired, his infantry formed 'in square, and favetned as he was by the nature of the country i of which he knew how to take the fullest advantage, prevented tine cavalry alone from effect ing any thing aga►nst him, and after following him for upwaads of a 19agut , „ and making an bled: ctual attempt to break him, I judged it advisable to „,ive over the pursuit, and he elected his retreat with the loss of about '2O killed, and as'many wounded, from four nine-pounders, which, by the great eser. tions of Major Hanker, and his Officers and men, got within range, and followed him for some dis tance, but were unable to close upon him, owing to the deepness of the country. " One wing of the 71st light infantry, under Lieut.- Colonel the Honourable 11. Cadogan, also exerted themselves in a most laudable manlier to overtake the enemy, but *ere et too great a distance to ad• mit of ti it accomplishing it iu any reasonable time. The arrival rf the abovementioned party at Merida made the ~my acquainted with our approach, of which I have reason to think he was before entirely ignorant, and he i i censequence erfteuat the town during the having unfinished some works which he was constructiug for its defence, and we entered it in the coos of day.

Extract of a Letter from General 11111 to Lord Vlocoaat Hugton, dated Ahneudralejo, Jan. 2,18 Ix. Since my letter to your Lordship from Merida of the 30th ult. I have the honour to report, that front all the information I had received, I had reason to suppose, that Drouet was concentrating his troops at this place, I consequently moved on yesterday for the purpose of attacking him. On my approach to the town, I found that the greater part of the ' enemy's troops had moved off the preceding day, in the direction of Villa Franca, and that his rear guard was on its march, covered . by his cavalry, which skirmished with the hussars of my adranced guard, and retired after receiving a few rounds from the horse artillery. In this town we found a few stores, of which the enclosed is a return , . I thought it pos. sible the enemy might have afforded me an opportu nity of doing something here.

Ms Lo a n,-My letter of the 24:1 and 3d instant would acquaint your Lordship of my having, on the Ist instant, marched with the corps under my command to Almendralo, in 'the hope that Count d'Erlon, who had collected the greater part "of la troops at that place, might hive given me an °ppm- Sanity of. doming in contact with him, as well as of my disappointment in that respect, he having pre. viously fallen back in the direction of Llereua, leaf. ing only a small reat-guard in Almendralejo, which retired also on our approach. I have the honour to acquaint your Lordship, that it wit my iutentlon'to • have followed the enemy, and, falling tu my desire to bring him to action, to have given him every pos. , bible annoyance in bis retreat; but the dreadful, state of the weather, - the condition of the roads (which are daily becoming worse), and the conse quent difficulty of getting up my supplies, render - any further operations on my part impt.ssible for the present, withoutlncut ring risks, and making mil. fices, greater than could have been justified by the occasion, dr by your Lordship's instructions. I therefore determined, after halting two days at Al mendralejo, and occupying Villa Franca and Fuente del Alaestre, to put the troops into cantonments in this town and neighbourhood, there to await a more favourable opportunity of acting ; trusting that the alarm occasional to the enemy by the movement el. ready made, will have in part effected one of the ob jects with which I was instructed by your Lordship to take the field. A part of the troops accottlittg!y returned here yesterday, and the remainder are now on their march ; the enemy being, by the last a::. counts which I have received, also in full march L. • • • ' .44 i• '• I ci N I k TWENTY THOUSAND POUNDS, IN SIATEEN SIX TEENTHS.
