Our readers will,Lwe trust, do us the justice to rot:0110a, that on the 2d of this month, in 'peaking of the position of tho armies in Pottu wo expressed our conviion that the time was rapilly approaching when some flieot of importance would take place in that country, 'and Alta attive operations would commence as soon as the rein forcements under Sir J.

It nowlq: • peartilhat our opinion wls perfectly correct, for on the 4th the reinforcentenls reached Lobon, and on that very day IVIAMNA broke up .from Santarem, And colurnet , ced his retreat, or, (if the accounts which have reached us are comet, his disordeily Bight) before the British Army, On Saturday last we adverted to the otpedition which sailed from Cadiz under General GliAli n to, and stated our aln pine hopes that we should igim be enabled to COLT tnnoicate to our Iteaders satisfactory intelligence with regard so its result, and we have now the sv ti s faction of stating, that our hopes were well found : that expedition, as f‘.r as the British were con cerned, was completely successful, and another and a glorious proof has been given of the superiority of the firittsbover French troops, At ,twelve o'clock host bight, Copu Horn, Aid _c o mp to General GRAHAM, arlived at Lord L vr , B ront,'s Office, in DoWning.street, with _ flion tiot gallant and able Officer, dated rd,triii 6.

British Force engaged._ G.lneral GRAHAM coonnaoded a part of a joint ex- edition, and ailed under ti►e orders of _a Spanish, If Generil GitAtuod had fortunately I►ad le Mel Command, ►lie result of the whole Ex pedition wou:d, we have no doubt, have been as advaniageotts to the cause of the Allies, as the Batik of BarrOM was glorious to the British arms. The bailie was fought on the 5t h bolween Baron and the Isla, near the sea shore. General GRAHAM had about 3000 British and , 2ooo Spaniards under his immediate command., The French-were upwards of 6000. The contest was obstinate and bloody, but the 'victory was decisive. The'French left 2000 dead On the field, and there were taken between 5 and 600 pri:toners, two Generals (one of Division), two COlOnels, an Aide de-Camp of the Duke of BEL:LIINO'S, mnd the Chief of the Flehch Staff; six pieces of cannon, and Iwo Eagles, which .niter have been deposited in Lord LivEttrioot.'s Whiles the armies were engaged, the ravy a" eMPIOYd (in the oniv way in which, from Ow situation of the troops, they could he or any wisi,t mice) itt making a eery useful and gallant diver sloth 'by attacking Putt Si.

On the whole, this of is of 'the must brilliant charaeter ; and there seems little reason to dontit that, lizid the efforts of our allies been as well di , ectett ours, cOrnpleie abaii.lonmetit of the siege of Ca►fiz muht have been the result. We have indeed heard that the Spanish Genersi ,urn4A, who commanded ►he Expedition, con- dated Ittn) 7 t4 very unßatisfatliorily, and that he bits been in consequence disgraced, ,and his comm Ind tran‘lerred to another Officer, This, (it is only mentioned in private accounts), it the foot be so, will be a cause of serious reoet, but we eatmoi 'ta. a monteot perinit it to cloud the joy and Humph that this adlitional proof of the,akill valour of our Army and our Navy must excite throughout the country. Such, a victory cotlid not be cheaply bought, and we lament to say, that that it has cost iyou killed and wounded, of whom about 60 are Officers. Since writing the above, we have received the following, Official Bulletin Di»patches have been received by the Earl of LI VERPOOL, from Lieutenant• General GRAHAM, dateo sie de Leon, 6th and 10th Mulch, 1811. " By these it appea►s:that the Allied Forces un der G neral Us PENA, having marched from Vcjea on the evening of the 4th, had reached the heights Barrr►sa (itho , it four miles from the River St. Peter) oh the morning of the bslr, LiCilikileHt*GoHer3l GRAHAM was theh order- eel to move with the BritiMh division, to secure the coinrounicatiott with the Isla, across the river. Upon his march through the pine woods, he learnt, that the enemy was advancing in force, and very rapidly to the ground he had quitted, and was con sidered of the greatest importance to the- safety of the Allies. " The Lieutenant.Generni hrunediatefy returned, ;ind finding ilie enemy very close, decided upon an. tiipating the attack, although his troops coutld not b© completely disentangled trout the wood and in. tricrwies of the ground. •' The enemy's force under Marshal Worms, wo Divisions of Rona and was composed of tha .t L*VAG, the torruer 'haviug already occupied the heights of Burma, white the law advanced against the lift wing of (kcal GRAUAM'S corps, although , expose(' to severe 10$5 from the fire of fl Britigh Artillery. " Aftcr a heavy fire of musquetry, three Compa nies of the Coldstream Guards and the 07th ltegi- ment, 6aq:ea Gen. LAVAL'S Division, and routed it, taking the Eagle of the Ath Light Infantry, which Reginient suffered very great loss. "The right wing of Lilo Btitish, led by the Guardit under Brigadier-Gen. DILKES, adva,ncing to chase the Division rtuii wt.re met by their op- ponents, and a sanguin.ly cotalicA was terminated tiy she complete defeat of the French, Who let the Gen. IturiN and ROUSSIAU, and some - pieces of cannon, in our possession. A squadron of French cavalry was towards the claw of the battle charged and routed by, a squa- dron of - the 2d German Hussats, under Liputenant- . . Colonel PONSONBY and Captain Busque, and the advance of our artillery, prevented an attempt on the part of the enemy to rally his crisper sed divisiocs. " General GamiA4 bestows the 'warmest praise on the whole of his CQii;s for their extraordinary exertions of valour diiplayed azaing an enemy so greatly superior in numbers. "The .loss, inclutting that of the 20th Portu• guese Itegiwent, amounts to 7 Otbeets And 19 kid. d; 56 Odic:els, and 683 ~wuunded—,,none N s o field Ottieer.awongst the Lieutenant - .

" Finding it impossible to procure supplies on the ground lie occupied, Licut.•G,ner:►l.GnAßAM was under the necessity of withdriwing his division into the Isla de Leon, on the morning of the 6th of having: three companies of the 9,6 th regi. wont on the other side of the river St. Peter and be adds, in his Letter of the loth ininant, tie grab• Eying iiitelligence That his wounded aro in general doing well.

General GRAilAbl'S division marchrd from , Pailfa on the 25th ult. ; on the bth iust. after a night's march of sixteen 'hours, they arrived at the 'bridge of Barrosa, about four miles to the southward of the St.• Peter River, ,and corn- menced a well conducted attack an the rear of the enemy's line, near St. Peter, by the van-guarsl of the Spanish Arnly,under General LADRIGAII t.,and open ed a eommt , nication with the Isle of Leon. Lieut. General Ga AII AU having received the direetions o the Spanish Commandei-in-Chief to move down f, o w the position of Barrosa to that of Torre d& Borlinga, received notice on the march that the enemy had appeared in force on the plain, and was advanced towards the heights of Barrosi : in thii position a most desperate action took place, in which the enemy was completely ' repulsed, 'With -the loss of an eagle and six, pieces of cannon. The General Of DiViSlOll, ritlFPEig, rind the General of ilrigade, Ros'tku, were wounded and taken. The Chief of the Staff, General BELGRAT)E, an Aid-de•Camp of Ge.netal Vttrroa, one Colonel, 'nine Captains, and about 480 rank and file, were made prisoners. The field was covered with the dead bodies of the enemy, and it was supposed that their loss amounted to about 3000 in killed and wounded. " The ,loss on titer part of tb British ttoOp3 amounts to 2 Captains, s Ensigns, and abot 00 rank and file killed ; 5 Lieutenant•Cnlonels, I Major, 14 Captains, 26 Lieutenants, - a Emig° , and aliOnt g4O rank and file wounded.
