FRIDAY. APRIL c 27.

Mr. SH4W, one of His MAJzszv's Messengers,
arrived yesterday at the Foreign Office in Dawn-
ing-street, with dispatches from Cadiz. He came
over in the Countess of Chichester packet, which
has ar.-ived at Falmouth with a mail, after a pas-
sage of 11 Jaya. By this conveyance we have re-
ceived Cadiz Papers to the lithinst; On the sth last
the French appeared before Valencia, on the 6th
they occupied the ,üburbs, hut on the 11th they
broke up, and retreated precipitately in the direc-
tion of Arragou. They were, however, closely
pursued b the Spaniards, who took from them
the ,iluti,ier which they had carried off, killed
some, and made some prisoners. Thy French force
is stated at 17,000 men. The cause of their precipi-
tate re-treat was not known. General Blake's forces
have occopiid a situation which enables him to
protect Valencia. Nothing new land taken place at
Cob:. The confidence of the innabilaitts in their
aft lay to defend it appears to ii.crease.
We have not space to recapitulate the different
partial actions which the patriots have with strag-
gling pal ties and detachin.•nia of the enemy. 1.. this
dowltory warfare the Spaniards seem particularly
,alsilfel, and it *poem to be the wisest course that
they could pursue.

We have received German Papers, (e series of
