SUPPLEMENT 2'O THE LUX DON GAZETTE.

SATURDAY, MAY 9.

WAR DE:PA R EN T.—DOW NI N G •N'l' ft ELT, MAY 9.
A dispatch, of 'which the following is an extract, has been received
by Lord Liverpool, addressed to his Lordship by the Earl Wellington,
dated I•bz ti 16th April, ISI2.
Marshal Soult collected his army at Villa Franca, in Estremajura, on
the Bth inst. and having there heard of the Fall of Bad.:fjux, he retired
before day-light on the 9th, towards the frontiers of Andalusia. Lieu-
tenant-General Sir Thomas Graham directed lieutenant-General Sir
Stapleton Cotton to follow their rear with the cavalry ; and he attacked
and defeated the French cavalry at Villa Garcia with Mojor-Genqral
Le Marchant's and Major-General Anson's brigades, the latter under
the command of Lieutenant-Colonel the Hon. F. Pousonby, on the
' morning of the 11th inst. I have the honour to incluse _Lieutenant-
General Sir Thomas Graham's letter, inclosing Lieutenant-General Sit'
Stapleton Cotton's report, and the return of the killed and wounded on
this occasion ; and I have only to add my commendations of the cow-
duct of Lieutenant-General Sir Stapleton Cotton, Mt jor-General
Marchant, and the Officers and troops under their comm and.
The enemy retired Lai that day from Llerena, and, since, entirely
from the Province of Estrernadlira. .

I have not yet heard whether General Ballasteros had entered Seville .
The Conde de Peene Villemnr, with a detachment of the sth Arm,,,
which had been sent from Estremadura into the Condado de Nielda,
had approached that town by the right of the Guadalquiver, and was
engaged with the enemy's garrison of Seville, and of the fortified coil-
vent on that side of the river, on the sth jun.. and had obligeO theist
retire within their works. The Conde de Penne V illemur retreated on
the 10th, according to a suggestion which was made to hiM by me in
consequence of the fall of Badajoz, and the certainty that I had that
Marshal Soult would return immediately into An.lalusia without i
an action, to which it was not in my power to bring him; and I tris,t
that the Conde de Penne Villemur will have communicated to General
Ballasteros the intelligence and suggestion which I desired twig it he
conveyed to him.
Since I wrote to your Lordship on the 7th inst. I have receiv, d repcl-tr
of transactions in the neighbourhood of Ciudad Rodrigo only to the int.
instant. The enemy still kept the place blockaded, hut had ,11.. d. 11,,
attack upon it, nor had repeated their visit to Almeida, having suthrek..
sonic loss in the reconnoissance-of that place on the 3d instant.
It appears that on the 7th, the greatest number of the troops iu-
neighbourhood of Ciudad Rodrigo, broke up and marched towaro.
