FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

The following is the article from the Corunna
it. del the operations to the Southward
of Valencia preceding the attack by the Duke del
PARQUE, and for which we had not mom in our
publication of yesterday :-.-
X%TIVA, JUNE IC—The General in Chief of
this army gave orders that at two in the morning
~,yestert a , this army should march in four di-
visions, to make a strong reconnoitring upon the
enemy's position on the.left of the Xucar, which
extended from Sueca to Antillar, Font. of Gene-
ral Roche's divisions were destined for this ope-
ration by the right.
The enemy occupied Alcira and Carcag;nte,
widi 3,4500 infantry 400 horse, and 6 pieces of ar-
tillery, under General" Itari§pe, who; when he
knew mu' troops were'near and driving in his ad-
vanced posts, demanded assistance from Alberique,
from which point he was reinforced in addition
to which, the 117th regiment came from Sueca,
so that he collected from 5,500 t0'6,000
He detached his horse and artillel y against the
Prince of Anglona,,who.was upon the high road
to the left, with only, the single hattaliOn of Cre-
mona, and two squadrons; which not being able to
resist the enemy's charge, bigan to retire. Ge-
neral Roche reinforced him with the Alicant bat-
lalion of Cacadores, which suffered considerably
in ails affair, notwithstandingitilifaverY, losing
two hundred men and, some officers; and suffer-
ing some dispersion by thecharge of the enemy's
Itoree. _ .

- In this situation was General Rochess division
at ten in the morning, when be was informed a
strong ecetny's Ooluum was marching to the heights
on his right.
At the same moment the Arriigon 'battalion,'
part of that of Chincilla, and the Valencian Coca-
dores, took` a position on the highest of them, for
the purpose of making a stand in that position, and
even fighting the enemy, who had made himself
master of the place and high-road ; 1,700 men only
defended this point against the enemy's superiority,
who made no progress till 2 o'clock in the after-
noem. It was expected they would have been v-
sisted by other columns, but objects of no less im-
portance kept them employed. Their ammunition
failing, because. it was not easy to convey it to that
poSition, orders were given for them to retire by
echelons., The fire was very brisk : the enemy
suffered a considerable loss—it amounts to 00
men ; .and Roche's division lost from 250 Co 300
men. Their cartridges being spent, the troops
retired by various ways to this point Of re-union.
The enemy did not dare to advance from Carea-
gente ; both parties remained in the former posi-
tions. The battalion of Canenas was in the rear,
carrying an important point. Welave lost some
excellent officers.

COPENUAGEN, TUNE 22.—Our official Gazette
has published the following under date of the lfitli
ilune
" ',ln a Bulletin from the Swedish bend-quarters,
which has issued from the Ca! p3igu Printing
'Press, and appeared at Stralsund, as well ;is in the.
Rostock Gazette, are, among other passages, found
the following
'' That after the arrival of President Kass, at
the French head-quarters, at Ilaarburg, there was
concluded ,bitwcen him and the - French Com-.
mandaiit a Secret Convention, in virtue of
which, the Danish trOops were conjunctly with
the. French troops to attack and. with, Ham-
burgh, and that, in conseqnence, the S-we-
trotips, which were in • the town, and
its neighbourhood, were obliged to retire, because
they I-wittined alone. It is announced, besides,
in the " that President Kass, at
the same time he was negoeiating with. Prince
D'Ecknitthl, had caused it to be said to the Rus-
sian General Tettenborn, and the Swedish (ie-
ncral (who is nit named), that the King of Den,
mark was ready to unite twenty-five thousand
Danish troops in the Swedish Army:" We can
form a perfect knowledge of the object of Presi-
dent Kass's mission, which consisted in proceeding
to the Emperor Napoleon'sbead-quarters, upon the
ring's busineSs,to assert, that belted no convention
to negociate at Haarhtteg,eit her p tiblic or secret,and
that he still less made an oiler of the nature which
the Swedish Bulletin announces, and which is as op-
posite :o the views and di ,nity of the King; or the re-
ports in which the Swt dish Government opposed it-
self to Denmark , by making demands which had fin;
their 'object breaking the bonds which unite two,
sister kingdoms. President Kass refused all com-
munication with those who wished to make pro-
positions to him on the part of -S wed'on , whose
views are known, as his refusal took away all
means" of throwing odium upon his Government,
and as it was wished to excite mistrnst, of hint.
In the hope of arriving at this end, r declaration
loss been attributed to the President, which the
situatioa of things could give no motive for, and
any ca e, ic.un
any benat; fOr'.the Co-tTerUtloll sit I.IIC
facilitated the entrance of the French tr(owi into
flaniburghi because the terrified inhabitants de-
manded their mediation. FrOili that time there
was no longer any motive for the DIOICS joining
the Swedes, who were retiring:"

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, tit) TA 20.

Monitis V. coLmAN.

The day was wholly consumed iii the.argniTierit.
on exceptions, taken to the Master's report in this
case.

Mr. ilv.tt, argued in support of the exceptions,
conteoding, that the Master's report was-wrong
and erroneous, in finding Unit the defendait-t,..n%
Colman, while .a prisoner•in the Rules of the
King's Bench,, had for years, in that unfor-
tunate situation, conducted, and wits capable of
duly conducting the office of tieneral Alanagtr.of
the Theatre, according to the articles of
,eopart--
nership.
Mr. HART and Mr. SIUDW'ELL opposed the ex.
ceptions, on the gi•ounds that the great noilities of
Mr,. Colman had so successfully promoted the in.
lerests and emoluments of the Theatre, notwith-
standing his embarrassments and dtiress, which
embarrassments ‘vere,fully known to Mr. Morris
at the. time of the execution of the articles of co.
partnership, that no snrpris‘l, or fraud had been
practised against hint by the defendant ut the time_.
of the contract.

The affidavits of nine persons, six of them being
theatrical performers, were read in support of the
Master's report, spewing that Mr: Colman bad
duly directed the rehexrsals of pieces at his house,
in the London-road, .within-the rules, written thii
most admired drathatic pieces, and had cast the
parts, as well as regulated the dress, conduct, and
other acemnpaniments, of the theatrical perfarm-
ances, with .consinnixwe ability and skill.
Sir SAKI: t;, KomiLLY argued in support of the
exception at not only by the articles of eopart-
norship; but by the written statement.tm a former
occasion Of Mr. Colman himself, it was wholly
and physically impossible for him to discharge
the duties of Acting Manager, even with the, aid
of Mr. IN .stun, the .Stage'..Manager, Ivlto NV :18
bound implicitly to obey. Mr. Colman in .all di
rections to be given to hint in the stage manage,
ment. , .

The Lotto CHANCELLOR intimated his opinion
to be in unison with that of the last speaker, and
promised to. give out the minutes of lot,l judgmcnt
in a clay or two, which should be all the delay
be should interpose to 'the opening of the Theatre
for this season, if such opeuiug could now be of
any practical use or benefit to the parties cow-,
cerued.
