MADRID, MAY 30.--The Extraordinary Ga_
zette of this day* announces, that the second Divi-
sion of the Spanish Advanced Guard had occupied,
on !he z Ist inst. Alegrette, with its Castle, and
Porto Alegre. The Portugueze, who were retreat-
ing , precipitately, have repassed the Tagus, and
have assembled at Abpantes.
,We have I:und a great
quantity of
,provisions, many arms, two iron can-,
non, and four ammunition waggons. This new
position of the Army secures its communications
with Spain. The PRINCE of PEACE proposes to
retain it until the moment when the arrival of pro-
visions, and other necessaries, shall allow his Army
to display their zeal and their devotion to the ser-
vice of His Majesty.

Note of the French. Editor.---[Abrantes is a forti-
fied place,, fourteen leagues from _Lisbon, of which
it is the bulwark. When' the Combined Armies of
France and Spain marched against 'Ora' ntes in 1762,
the King of Portugal demanded an Armistice, which
was granted, and the English, although they had an
Army in POrtugal under the' command of General
BURGOYNE, hastened to 'conclude a Peace.]

LETTER FROM THE PRINCE OF PEACE, COMMANDER
OF THE ARMY OF OPERATION, DATED JUNE 6,

ADDRESSED TO THE KING.

" SIR,

" It is now half past 'nine in the evening: I
.am
hastening ,to conclude the Conditions on which
Campo' Maggiore is to surrender. I shall to-mor.:
row take possession of that large place. The Army
of His Imperial 'Majesty and myself shall go and
dine in the ruins of it. Auguella has also surren-,
tiered.. This is a castle and a village dependant
upon A/bre-fueryue, and which has greatly annoyed
the troops which have passed through it. If I have
powder, and-Peace is not concluded, I shall fortify
these two places. The troops who are besieging
it deserve reward."

JUNE 7.—" It is six in the Morning; and Yam in-
formed of the successful result of the Expedition which
the Commander of the First Division, Don Diego
Gob(); is carrying on. Ile is marching against
Evora. I shall in my next advices give you a cir,
cumstantiat account. I have granted the last Arti-
cle hi the Capitulation of Canz4bo Maggiore, as a
boon to the vanquished, for their valour, and be-
cause it would not haVe been worthy of Spaniards
to have sought to destroy them. It is necessary
that a Soldier should accustom. himself to that gene-
rosity frOm which as a Spaniard and a suhjel of
your Majesty, he can never swerve."—Madrid Ga-
zette Extraordinary, June to.
