VITORIA, OCT. 11 .—LoNGA has marched ftom Ordunna to Treas, with 11s valiant division. The want of harmony among the French Generals is now notorious. BERGA, OcT. 10.—According to confidential intelligence from Cedana, on the 9th instant, the Vandals spread themselves all over that country for the purpose of collecting wood. Their total force did not exceed 2000 men, with 150 horse. The loss which they have suffered from desertion since the Ist September, amounts to near 1300 men, they are not in a condition to attempt, such is the fear with which they are penetrated. CADIZ, OCT. 30.—The Duke del PARQUE has been named General in Chief of the 4th army.— According to intelligence from Granada of the 27th, the 4th army was preparing to march in the direction of La Carolina.—(Redacto; General, Oct. 30.) • GENERAL BALLESTEROS TO THE MINISTER AT WAR. ". Excellent Sir,—From the time of the surren der of Barcelona, Figueras, Pamplona, and San- Sebastia, at which epoch I was at Madrid, I began to omit no means to bring about the revolution. Maintaining a conununicatika with various pro vinces of Spain, and acting with an energy sur passed by none, I flatter myself that no person con tributed more than I did to the success of the 2d May, from which has resulted our present situation. The motive which animated me to act thus, was a knowledge that it was the general wish of the nation to be informed for what purpose the surrender of these fortresses was intended, not withstanding the political manner in which they were given up. Froth that epoch I have not quitted my arms, but resisted, to the honour of my country, the attempts which have been made to injure her by a foreigner. "Always inflexible in remaining a Spaniard, my country has found me ready to support her under every circumstance, without consideration to my fortune, which I have ever viewed, as your High ness must admit, with the greatest indifference. " I Was surprised at learning that the English General Lord WELLINGTON, was appointed Chief of the Spainsh armies, by a resolution of the Ge neral Cortes. They who, to preserve he reputa tion of their country, have buried in the grave thousands of our companions in antis, are observing our proceedings, and I should no t consider myself as having been born in the king dom of Arragon, if I did not submit to your Ex cellency for the information of Government, that I cannot condescend to a determination that tar nishes the honour of the Spanish name, degrad ing their Chiefs who arc at their head; supposing that they do not perceive the certain superiority to which this measure must lead, particularly with a nation with whom we have always culti vated the best friendship, and of whose bad faith and fair offers no person can give a more satis factory account than the Duke DEL INYANTADO, President of the Regency. " I have received an account of this event, and, in consequence, orders to move my army, an order which compromises the honour of all the individuals belonging to it, either in the capacity of citizens or military men. 1 cannot hide with out usurping the rights which belong to them on the event of acknowledging Lord WELLINGTON General in Chief of the Spanish armies ; and as this point in question is of the utmost importance to the general good of the country, I wait the re , solution of your Highness for my ulterior .deter mination. ' " In the same order your Excellency informs'me that Lord WELLINGTON returns thanks to the Generals of the nation for the benefits, political and military, which they peformed, to obtain the present results of the allied arms. Then, to whom is to be confided the armed force of the nation ? Is Spain to be considered as a little kingdom of Portugal ? Is not the origin of our revolution, to our honour be it spoken, different from that of the Portuguese ? Have we not the honour of being allied with the greatest natlonlin the world? Have not our arms resounded in the four quarters of the world ? Can we give the command of our array to a foreigner without disgracing the nation ?--- No ; Spain has still resources, her generals, chiefs, officers, and soldiers, still 'fortunately preserve the honour they inherited from their forefathers, and in the present war convinced the English and French, that in battle they display equal valour and discipline to themselves, and that their Chiefs know how to conduct them to victory. The fields of Baylen, Albuhera, Saragossa, and Gerona, with many others, which I omit to state, because I would not be thought to boast of my self, are indelible testimonies of this truth ; and the 4th army, which I command, may tell the nation that in these qualities they are no, inferior to any soldiers in the world, and that without degradation they cannot descend, to sub the extraordinary serviCes they have perfohned, out of compliment to Lord WELJ.INGTON, al though tl.ey are always ready to in combina tion with Lastly, 1 intreat your Excellency to dematidThe opinion of the national armies and citizens, and I agree to this nomination ; I will resign my em ployments, and retire to my house, to convince, in this manner, all the world, that only honour and the. good of my country, lead me to this exposi tion, and no ambitious vier.rs as to fortune, which malice may sometimes attribute to me, without respecting the notoriety of my patriotism, acquir ed by weight of constancy and signal services. Head-varters, Grenada, Oct. F. BALLESTEROS. To his Excellency the Minister At War, (Conciso, Nov. 2 ) CADIZ, Nov. 2.—A dispatch has arrived from Grenada, in consequence of which the fears of some, who see an accumulation of difficulties on every side, appear to be unfounded. General BALLASTEROS received orders from the Go vernment to quit the command, and Gen. BAL LASTEROS now has no command. Many are the circumstances which have occasioned this, and the opinions relative to it. That which is alone interesting and certain, is that his subalterns and soldiers have evidently shown that, they are good Spaniards and devoted to their country. This expression is attributed to the Commandant of the BOURBONS, but Nve (10 not hesitate to attribute it to every good soldier ; and by good we here understand true and faithful de fenders of their country's welfare. We have heard that the divisions of Grenada Lave made a movement. God grant that our fourth army may fall into good hands, and that its brave soldiers may increase the fame which already dis tinguishes them, and which they acquired under the command of their valiant, patriotic, but un fortunately ill-advised General BALLASTEROS. Besides the satisfaction we have in seeing these fears removed, we have also the pleasure of com municating to the public that a vessel has ar rived from America wit favourable advices. Letters from Vera Cruz of the sth of August announce, that the communication with Mexico, from which city we had received Gazettes, is re established, that the numbers of the insurgents is considerably di► niched, and,cannot inspire dread, though they may produce inconvenience.—(Con ciso, Nov. 3.) Official notice has been given, dated Grenada, October 30, that the Regency of the Kingdom had been pleased to discharge from the Command in Chief of the 4th army, and the Captain Gene ralship of Andalusia, DOH FRANCISCO BM...TASTE ROS, and to appoint in his stead, ad interim, Don JOAQUIM VIM; ES. Rear-Admiral SURRIDGE is appointed to com mand his Majesty's ships and vessels at Chatham. The Revenge. 7-1, Sir JOHN GORE, is fitting for the Mediterranean. Reports of the death Of BIJONAPARTE continue to be circulated and on Saturday wagers to a considerable amount were made upon the event in the city. Ten guineas were given to receive fifty, should the rumour prove true. The account was said to have been communicated in private letters from Paris ; but we cannot take upon us to vouch for the fact 01any late arrival from France having taken place. KING'S BENCH.—Williant Fleet, Editor of the Brighton Herald, having suffered judgment to go by default, was brought up this day, to receive the judgment of the Court for a libel on the Hon. Miss ELIZABETH SOMERSET, daughter of Lord CLIARLES SOMERSET, accusing that Lady of a faux pas with Capt. WINonAm-. The Court sentenced him to pay a tine cml lOU/. and to be imprisoned for three months. THE '!'H EATRE.—After the representation of the Tragedy of Alexander the Great, the hero of which was represented by Mr. BETTY, the new Farce of Love, Law, and Physic, was performed for the si4- cond time, and with unabated success, on Satur day.—The imitative powers of MATHEWS, the humour of LI;TON, and the rustic archness of EmnaY, gave spirit to•the piece,::nd abundant en tertainment to a numerous audience. The humorous operatic Farce of Netley Abbey, written by Mr. PEARCR, author of many success ful pieces of a similar nature, was revived at Drury-Lane Theatre on Saturday. - It has much of the broad fun which suits the taste of the day, with a certain portion of interest_ that will render it always acceptable. In the notice which we took a few days ago of a most extraordinary_ boy, whose powers of calculation have excited universal admiration, we were i'mcorrect in some particulars. He is not a Russian, but a native of America, and was born on the Ist of September, 1804, in the State of Vermont, he consequently is little more than eight years and two months old ; his name is Zerah Colbourn. The rapidity and apparent facility with which he answers the most difficult arithme tical questions is really astonishing. Ii t ORBERY OF- THE_ N2WItY •liLY.-We are ex tremely sorry to state, that on Friday night the Newry Fly was ,robbed at the Turnpike of Dun leer. The robbers suffered the Mail -coach to pass unmolested, but immediately after they barrica doed the Turnpike Gate, and robbed the Newry Fly of every article it contained, and also what .property they found with the passengers.—We understand that Government have resorted to the most prompt and vigorous measures to discover the persons concerned in the above robbery.— Dublin Pape-. 171 V iC A.I.A V V • PLYtitotitH, Nov. :N.—Arrive 1 the P0m. 03 , e from Lisbon; the Bittern sloop of war from L i " verpuol ; Selsette frigate froth the eastward ; a n d the Sandwich lugger from a crnize: Put back the Margaret, Aurora, and Bedford they sailed from hence about a week since, 0 4 ale driven in by contrary winds.
