On the 94th I caused the troops to move from Arronches; for Quints Reguenga, a little more tkm hall way to this place, and the division of Gv. ticral•Cole for Arronches ; and having joined yes. terday at tett in the morning, I put the whole in minion for this town. I could not know the in tention of the enemy with royal to this place : but in case he should endeavour to maintain it, .1 sold posed to post - myself between him and liadajoz, and ilms cut hint off from the latter, " We discovered the enemy's advanced cavalry on the heights of Lop° de Matto about a league distant y tiut per ceiving that. wo.Avere inantzuvring on their flank, they retreAted, and some bkir iohing took placeat the loot of the walk of the town with the advanced cavalry. When I reached the.keights of the place, C diwovered the enema "a force on the Outside of the town. 1 did ; not however know whether or ocit. 110 was tliutta of the.ploce.

My ob• jet was to detain the force of the enemy till some intaotry could. arrive. The Brigadier-made a widor circuit than was intended, so that be . morceirearial. ly . flanked enemy, anckAdiged him. to retreat hastily, and indeed with extraordinary The cavalt y ad + anced upon his right flank,. and. Brigiolier-General Long ,eeing a favoarable (Tor tunny, ordered Colonel Brad, with two sqoadrons a t h e I , ,: pj, Li g h t Dragoons,- to charge, the cavalry of the enemy', which obliged the infantry to fall back to support it. This charge, followed by Col. Otway, with t‘vo stinadroni of the 7th Portuguese, and stappm ted by General Long with the remainder of that regiment, the tst Portuguese and the bri• Bade of CAnnel De , Grey, was made with the most detertnined courage, and the French were intirely ,routed, and pursued into the town of Badajuz, two lengtres distant, in which the greater part of them wore shied, as were the conductors and .401- :laymen of it l pio.es of cannon, which were taken :on the , road, but tilturwards abandoned. This suc cess, though it occasioned a great loss to rho ene my, was lu Some manneronfortnnate, becattaC'ribt knowing what had been done by the cavalry that , ;,had made the charge, and continuing to pursue the infantry with the femaining cavalry and two pieces' of aviiittry for the space of a 6100, to support the : detached body which had advanced, and not having r e ceiv e d wilco of It, nor knowing what new force, the enemy might Nend from iladajoz, prudence . obliged ntu to h 'it with my cavalry till the infantry eould come op.

No accounts have been received from Holland in .addition to those which we'y6terday communicated to our Readers. It is natural to suppose Ott the Agents of BUONAPAWIT'S tyranny in' Holland would take every possible peeminion to prevent any intel ligence from being transmitted' to this country, re 'speeting the insurre4.lionary spirit which has mani fested itself, and there.tore some time may elapse before we receive any auttialitirterlifi. — We' have already said, that we have nut .kititticient .intormat ion before us to authorise any very sanguit.e expecta tions at the result of this movement of the people of Holland, but there are certainly many circuni stances which must at this moment operate strongly in their favour. The recent disasters of the French in Portugal must speedily be known throughout the Continent, and consequently the terror' inspired by the notion of French invincibility will be in a great degree removed. The inhabitants of the;Hansa Towns have already iduswn 'that they ate . vvilling to make the most decisive efforts to recover the r 'free dom, and if the reports which are so 'con dandy circulated respeeting an 'approaching war between 'Russia and Franca are well founded, we may ye t look 'forward with hope to the deliverance of the North of Europe. Since writing the above we learn, from a quarter on which we place great reliance, that all the Danish sailors that were put in requiiition to man the Scheldt fleet have deserted. The report of an Mimi - - rett;on, of a very serious nature', having broken out in Flaud6s, is very generally believed. • We were mistaken yesterday in stating that 'dip patoiies had been received from Lord WELLINGTON; it was a private Letter from his Lordship to Lord LIVILItrooL, in which he refers to dispatches which are not yet arrived, We have made this day ample extracts Corn the Portuguese Papers, which contain the details of the movements of the French until their completees pulsion from Portugal. , The proceedings of Marshal BERESP•oRD are alSo given in a Letter from that gal lent Of ; they agree in every particular with the accounts which had previously reached M. MRS• semi's army is, as we stated yesterday, divided-one part is gone towards Salamanca,' and the other. to Placentia. All accounts agree in representing them to be itr a most deplorable state. We received this morning Jamaica Papaya° the btil ult. from which we hive made the following extraas KIbiGSTOO, MAliCif b.—We underatand by re cent accounts from Carthagena.; that on the 4th nit. a serious commotion took plice in that city. One of the regiments of the garrison, instigated by two of their Otlicers and ireve'rai European Spaniards, mutinied, intending to seize on , the Members of the present. Government, and send them to Spain.• The mob in great numbers instantly.overawed'the regiment, took the instigators prisoners, when 'trim _quility was gradually re-established. To the ho. flour of the people it must be said, that 'although the confusion was great, and every one armed with some description of weapon, no blood was shed, nor any robbery perpetrated. By accounts from SALVO Domingo welearn the death of General SAN"CHRE DS RAMIREZ. He had previously ►aboured under a dropsical complaint, for which he liad been repeatedly tapped, but it was un availing, and notwithstanding'every medical aid, he expiroit amidst the regret of. the garrison and of every one connected with hitt). The Government of Martinique have lately been very cautious in admitting any Frenchmen to land on that island. A short time since, several with only French passports arrived there, who bad not obtained the regular British ones. They were all ordered avay, and the Captain of the vessel, who took them thither, was compelled to receive them on hoard again, and depart froM the Colony., iltoAun, who arrived from France lat St. Do mingo in July last, is unquestionably an emissary of IlueNAPipures. The mode he adopted taftteclim capture by the British was to disguise himself, and aa Is a cook on board an Altlexicon vessel, from Bowed:atm to Philadelphia.
