The head-quazters of the 3d army advanced, on the afternoon of the 9th, from Castella toVillena. Our,respectable gild warlike bode, light .troops, and, artillery, ,are clearing'. the> raid and defiles. The troops of. the 2d and the 3d army divide the fatigues with -Military fraternity,' which is the presage of durable.,triumphs. Their state of in . strttetion and diiciplitle gave their General that confidence requisite to . discharge: with glory a pit of the. gtTat plan;..' During this ,Gen. Don P...Roche's , ',x'aliant division began its rapid march upon 4 Cancenthmi, and attacked the post of Albaecia ;,••the enemy ,was immediately driven from that formidable' position, abandoned 04encenti and other places to Xativa,' in which city we have nn doubt Gen. Roche now is. These troops, equally warlike as accustomed to great privatious,, follow-the back of the fugitives, and anxiously desire the -moment-for battle.

We have this day given'farlhe'r extracts from the Corunna Mail ) : but we'stre:without intelli gence front Spain or tunee ulterior to that which we (1% ith feelings ; of boneSt triumph) submitted to the public on Saturday. The 'e*trart from Field-Marshal WELLn dispatch of the 26th, which will be found in the Gazette we were enabled . to publish - in substance in our common edition, and almost verbatina our second edition .)1 that day, so that we have no remarks to offer.in sequel to those accompa nying the annunciation of the glorious .news.--. Upon a more mature review of the accounts contained in the Cortmna Mail, we see no reason to mistrust a particle of the commit. nications. : therein, made. The official letter of our illustrious Commander confirmi them to the full extent its date could enable it to .ga s and 'prepareS„us to expect all the rest which these chceringstatemeitt asserts .to have taken place. We therefore look impatiently for the,next arrival, which we have no doubt will - bring accounts of other successes to warm and elevate every British heart. The Gazette contains Captain BROKE'S Dispatch relative to the capture of the Chesapeake, and though the Public have already had the substance of this gallant exploit before them in a variety of fortis, the modest history of it from the brave Officer himself will be read with feelings of una bated interest. We have no wish to dilate upon the Subject, but beg to direct attention to the admirable manner in Which Capt. B. recommends his valiant comrades to the Government. of their country. The truly hetOic cOinbat sustained by Captain BLACK, and the,ship's company of the Weazle, in th© Mediterranean, is worthy of its place in the same official publioation, beside the achievement of the Shannon. The Gazette also con t a i ns Dispatches f rom Si r J. B. WAitREN, respecting the late descents which have been made on the American coast, principally with a view of cutting off the enemy's supplies, and destroying their foundries, stores, and public works. In.all these respects, our readers are al ready aware, that the proposed objects were at tained, by a series of attacks eondmited with much bravery and skill,- by.the Officers to whom the 4i rection of Service Was confided. A rumour prevailed on Sat.erdity, which rut tabbing no credit, we abstain,:d from.noticing it), that the Caowrr PIUNCE bad advanced and taken Ilaniburgh. It proves, as we suspected, a most baseless Lubrication. By the subsequent arrival of a Heligoland mail, with letters to the fith instant, all these idle stories are dissipated. A Gentleman had reached the island, who found means to quit Hamburgh on the :id, up to which time, not only had no battle been fought; but the (Idiom.; PRINCII was understood to have acceded to,the armistice, and to be remaining in his posi tions,!as agreed upon, in consequence of that measure. He was, however, indefatigably ern , ployed in organising and reviewing the volunteers, who from all .tbe neighhouri it States flocked in crowds to his stand:ad. ilk reputation ns a Ge neral being so well established in the North of Germany, it was confidently believed that besides his Swedish troops and the Russians and Prussian 3 that are to be put at his disp3al, a few weeks would see him at the, head of a patriotic force large enough to bid defiance to any army that BuosIaPARTE could assemble in that quarter; and that the armistice would be nosooner terminated, than he would be seen over-rznning the French and Westphalian territories on the Elbe, and ad vancing to the very frontiers of Saxony. 'rile sick person whose residence in the Palace of Dresden we noticed in our hest, is SllPPosed to be BenTMErt, ^' whom we _know to tre been, lattly very much induspoiNl le not to 'have ;relit' , ally died, W I high dignitiesas'p'ire Constable of the Pt ench Empire i and .

Major-General of the kriny, must be, of so much imputtancy ifusma- ts, ti We have inserted a letter, said to be,ththpro duetion of the Queen of ,StctLY. We.know no on whatauthurity. An Officer arrired this Morning at'the Admiral. ty, and it is stated, that he brought an account oi the notorious CoMmodore RODGiIfS, in the Pr sider,t frigate, having mark his appearance among our mercantile vessels employed at Greenland.— Other,aceo un t s report him. to ue off the -coast' o Norway. ~... ,i _ WI STMINSTER'S PRIDE--- .

" Amongst these, and not the leasi prominent; are the twin . Gloriesof Wertminster, the renowned Illuminator BUTWETT, and the dig . tinguished Advocate of Our spiritless Navy, Lord COCHRANE.

Indeed' we cannot help observing and lamenting a d,isposi tion which has of late been too much encouraged of bringing subjects forward for discussion there, which in their nature are utterly unfit for such appeal, and which, if indulged in,.:would soon occupy the Legislature so much as to pre clude the possibility of their applying theni selves to the beneficial purposes for which they are constitutionally assembled. Bottoms- has been turmoiling about seamen's wages ---endea vouring, as it were, under the mask of reform,to induce Parliament to throw open.: the door to every species of fraud, isnposition, and forgery, in jurious alike to the real interests of the seamen and the country, rather than rest satisfied with the existing system, which, as was justly observed, brings information and relief to the cottage -of every relative of every sailor who diesin the ser 'But this leading Character in this glorious pursuit is the Noble Naval Lord upowwhom the Party Prints conferred the command of a seventy font. ; Redenut Saturqin revla, nut it was a fabulous age!
