DOWNING-STREET, MAY 18.
A dispitch, of which the following is a copy, was this morning
received by Fail Bathurst, from Lieut.-U(llva' Sir John Murray,
Bart. :

Castalla, Aptit 14, 1813.
MI( Lonn,—l have the honour to inclose to your. Lordship, a •
copy of a dispatch addressed this day to General the Maiqms of
IVellington ; and I am happy it is in my 'power to lay before your
Lord-hip so con% hieing a proof of the gallantry and spirit whick
pervades this army.
I have, indeed, but faintly described the exertions of the officers.
and soldiers who have been engaged, but I still vaule to hop*
that they will appear sufficiently meritorious to attratt the notice
and obtain the approbation of his Royal Highness the Prince Re.
gent.
This dispatch, with its inclosure, will be delivered to your Lord.
ship by .Captain D'Aguilar,. of the gAst regiment, my Military Se-
cretary. I have, with great inconvenience to myself, selected this
Officer, because he is so well qualified, from the situation he holds,
to give your Lordship every information relative to .this action, and
indeed relative to this ar:l- y and the province.
I think I may safely venture to assare your Lordship, that Cap-
tain D' Aguilar eminently possesses every quality which we prize in
the character of a soldier, and I take the liberty of earnestly re-
commending him to your Lordship's tavourable notice and protec-
tion. . I have the honour to be, &C.
(Signed) J. MURRAY, Lieut.-Gen.
The Earl Bathurst, &c.

Head-quarters, CastaUa, April 14, 1813.
My LORD,—T have the satisfaction to inform your Lordship,
that the allied army under my command defeated the enemy on the
13th instant, commanded by Mar-ha l Singlet in person.
It appears- that the French General had, far the purpose of at-
tacking this army, thr some time been employed in collecting his
whole disposable three.
His arrangements were completed on the 10th, and in the morn.
ing of the 1 1 th, he attacked and dislodged, with some loss, a
Spanish corps, posted by General Elio, at Yecla, which threatened
hi= right, whilst it supported our left dank.
In the evening he advanced in considerable force to Valetta, and
I am sorry to say, that he captured, on the untruth!, of the 12th,
a Spanish garrison, which had been thrown into the Castle by the
Spanish General, for its defence.
On the 11th, about noon, Marshal Suchet began his attack on
the advance of this army, posted at "liar, under the commaed of
Cidonel Adam.
Colonel Adam's orders were to fall I),lck upon Castalla, but to
dispute the passage With the enemy ; which he did with the utmost
gallantry and skill, for five hours, though attacked by a force in.
finitely superior to tkat which he commanded.
The enemy's advance occupied the ',ass that evening, and Co.
Ilough Adam took up the ground in our position watch had peen Id.
lotted to him.
""..at nn--Ast. the enemy's columns of attack were formed,
