Wilson C'roker, Esq. dated at Gibraltar the 2:2d and '.3sth of
last month.

San Juan, Gibraltar, Oct. 2'2, 1811.

reqnest you to inform their Lordships, that ye.:;tc.-d:ty
Morning the French quitted St. Roque about half past Seven,
the advance having left Los Barrios about t rec.
They took the road towards Ximeties, and the last
gence w::s, that the advanc: of General Ballasteros' cavalry
were keeping sight of their rear. I take the opportunity of t.Lo
Scout (without delaying her) to give you this information.
I have the honour to be, Ste.
(Signed) C. V. PENROSE.
San Juan, Gibraltar, Oct. 25.
SlR—The Scout being put back, owing to the westerly winds,.
and carrying away her main boom in a squall, I take the oppor-
tunity of enclosing a further return of Rrrivals and sailings, and
state of ships in the bay, and to request you to inform their
Lordships, that the French army which lately appeared here, is
again divided to the several parts from whence itwas assembled,
after General Ballasteros, who followed the enemy with great
judgment and gallantry,:had gained a considerable advantage
over their rear guard, cm, the 22d, taking several prisoners and
..
some baggage.
,
It appears that the Frencn,. uneasy at the active zeal of Bal-
lasteros, and at our works tit 'the island of Tarilla, assembled
their force in the hopes to •'c'itiSh him before his pri, arations
were advanced, and also to tekveraritla ()Libre we were pre-
pared for resistance, and that want of wine and grain, owing
perhaps to the baste of assembling,
,obliged them to retreat.
have the honour to be, Scc.
