are strong batteries called Montju.ch and the

Condestible ; the walls are in many places en

" 1 .cncral Bake has resigned the C"mmnnt!

succet d him ; lie is thought to be an able man,

" Dec, 23,—It is, an ( predicted—"the invr.or

received here. It has cast a gloom over the
whole place ; the general cpin on litre is, that
this province must soon fall. 1(1,000 French
a ely l.-ft Madrid,and have arrived at Saragos

after its capitulation,was pillaged by theKrench,
and a contribution ol 230,000 Hollars laid
upon
it. Since
the capture of that place they have
marched into Palamos, Blunes, and 3t. Eelicu.
on their way toward, Barcelona ; a partof them

the Spanish army in La Mancha has been en
tirely destroyed by the French ; they brought
to Saragossa 12,000 prisoners taken from "he
Duke del Parque. We hear the Sumatans
ere
on th borders of Fi ance, and but yesterday,
a monk told me that ' by this time France is
ota-s !' Poor ignorant fellow, 1 could almos
say, that by this time Spain is conquered; af
intis wear a most gloomy aspect. What the
Samav.ns are doing on tht borders of France I
cannot teli ; they have made prisoners of

war ol a large number of fat hogs,
com

is a most
valorous action. They are poor miserable

' here ts n..

" Nothing further has transpired since ray
first date. That Gerona is taken is confirmed
beynnd doubt. I shall have the ensuing Christ
mas a uhanct to observe the manner in which
the ( athohrs keep that greatest day of the
