The treasures I The King had amassed, we have rea son to believe, have fallen to reward his conquerors, the latest of whom, by arapid movement of, light infantry on the heads Of doc ,Bidassoa, couttibuted greatly to precipitate his retreat. • Of the division which is maldng its exit by It.un, a very full, particular, and satisfactory account is given by Sir T.
