• tavir,LE, Nov. tl...According to the latest ad-
vices from our Army of the Centre, the head-quar
ters were at Eierincia, and the advanced guard near
Aranjtiez. The accounts from Madrid confirm the
impatience and enthusiasm with which than loyal
city waits its deliverers, in order to take every possi-

ble part in the expulsion of the enemy. Gerona
continues to defend itself. Generals ST. CYR and
VERD:ER have been recalled to Paris, to give an ac-
count of the attack on Gerona, on the Igth which

was so glorious to the patriotic arms.
SEVILLE, Nov. 15.—We are assured that our
Army of the Centre does not advance a step without
fighting : its head quarters are at Dos Barrias. Since
the 9th there have been several partial affairs, in
which, our amy have had 'the advantage. The de-
tails are not yet known. The Patriots have made
a second sortie ; they engng,:d the enemy, and, at
the expence of some lives, the city has been re-
lieved.

VALENCIA, Nov. 3.—Some ships from the Eng-
lish squadron are constantly cruizing between 'Barce-
lona and Escala ; and the 'cordon of Llobregat, pre-
vents the entrance of any provisions into that place,
which is now reduced to the greatest distress.

LISBON, Nov. 16.—The Princess Elizabeth ar-
rived yesterday, with the mail of the Ist, instant.—
The Princess of Wales will sail to-morrow morning,
the Duke of Marlborough on Tuesdly next, and the
Princess Elizabeth on the following Sunday. We
have no certain account of the Tonkin fleet—rumour

says it is gone to Sicily.
OPORTO, Nov. 10.—The Fylla is now under
weigh, with 55 ships ; 2g are left here, not being
able to complete their cargoes.

CADIZ, Nov. 7.—ln company with other English
ships, escorted by the Ajax ship of war, arrived in
this port, the transport Harriet and the brig Maria.
The former brought, by order of her Government,

muskets, as many bayonets and accoutrements,
100,000 flints, 200,000 cartridges, and 10,000
sabres. The Maria brought teats and other field
imple63ents for 30,000 men. Two other ships of
the same nation have also arrived with gunpowder,
grape shot, and other warlike stores.

MAWILESAI, Nov. t.—We learn from the neigh-
bourhood of Gerona, under yesterday's date, that in
consequence of part of our army having changed its
position, the enemy has been thrown into the ut-
most confusion, and obliged to reinforce his line
further.; that some firing was heard, and that a con-
voy was said to have entered that city from the side
of Las Angelas.
SEVILLE, Nov. 14.—Our cavalry continhes to
cover itself with glory. The enemy's horSe, pur-
sued as far as Odaua, endeavoured to take post be-
tween that place and Guardia, but they were' speedi-
ly dislodged, with the loss of 250 killed, although
our troops did not obtain victory at a cheap rate.
The head-quarters have been removed from Temb-
lique to Barrios ; the army is pushing forward with-
out any delay, and the cavalry hangs continually on
the rear of the French.

SEVILLE, NOV. 13.—Lieutenant-General Don
Manuel Frere, General in Chief of the Cavalry of
the Army of La Mancha, has written, under date of
the 6th instant, the following dispatch to the Ge-
neral in Chief :

" Six o'clock in theevening.—l have just alighted 1
in Madreligas, after pursuing the enemy, who has
retreated from Mora, as he has also done from Con-
suegra and Camienas, so that the cavalry is station-
ed in the towns assigned to it, excepting that the re-
giments which were to have remained at Wide, have
advanced to-Consuegra ; the whole day has been
one continued attack, from Punto Lascia to two
leagues beyond that town. The force opposed to us
at the three different points I estimate at from 2600
to 3000 cavalry ; the enemy has cavalry at Tern-
bleque and La Guardia; to-morrow we shall see if
they will share the same fate as these ; the troops
have displayed the greatest valour. We have had
both killed and wounded, but I cannot yet intotm
your Excellency of the particulars.--Here follows
a detailed account of a battle fought on the Bth of
November, in the vicinity of La Guardia, by the
troops under General Frere, which terminated in
the defeat of the enemy. His dispatches con-
clude by saying, " At eight o'clock at night, the
enemy evacuated Ocana, and proceeded towards
Araujoex,- according to intelligence I received
from that town this morning,, dated from Tern-
; bleque the gth of Nov: 1809.

tify the Retiro, and at the Casa de la China they
have planted loaded cannon against the city.
Our head-quarters must have arrived at Aranjeuz
the Frerch in Old Castile endeavoured:to draw the
Duke del Parque into the plains.
SEVILLE, Nov. 1 t.—The agreeable scenes of the
25th and 26th of last July have beets repeated in
Madrid: The French have all fallen back upon the
Retiro, and the degenerate Spaniards have put them-
selves under their protedion. Infatuated wretches !
there cannot be a clearer proof of the proximity of
our army to the capital, and of the state of the ene-
my's force. The people of Madrid with uplifted
arms, and our armies supplied with every necessary,
marching without intermission towards the enemy,
overcoming every obstacle, what a glorious prospe& !
We have just loarnt that the patriotic troops, to the
number of 14,000 infantry and 4000 cavalry, have
entered Aranjuez.—(Diary, Nov. 13.)
SEVILLE, Nov. 12.—The convoy, consisting of
60 ships, which sailed from Toulon, and, according
to some, carried provisions for Barcelona, or, ac-
cording to others, troops to reinforce the army,be-
sieging Gerona, has been destroyed by thalEnitish.

They write from Tarragoni, under date of the

SEVILLE, Nov.•ls.—Don Rosendo Porlier, COM-
mander.of his Majesty's frigate called Nuestra Senora
de Aotcha, has reported to his Excellency Don An-
tonio de Escano, from Tarragona, under date of the
bth instant, that the Captain of the English brig of
war Alacrity, informed
.him, that a division of three
sail of the line, and two frigates, having sailed from
Toulon on the 20th of Odober, convoying 20 tran-
sports bound for the coast of Catalonia, it was at-
tacked by Rear-Admiral Mattin on the otf
Cette, who pursued it with the seven ships under
his orders, the result of which was, that three of the
enemy's ships were driven on shore, two burnt, and
the other rendered perfedly- unfit for service.—
Afterwards several ships of Admiral Colliagwoud's
fleet attacked the enemy off Cape Crouse, took five
of the line, sunk four, and the remainder tool: shel-
ter in the Bay of Rosas, where four more were
burnt, and five taken ; so that the final result of
these operations was, that. one frigate only, and
two transports, out of 20, escaped being- tal.en by
the English.---(Government Gazette of Nov. 16.)

Yesterday morning were buried at Fulham, the
remains of Sir PHILIP STEPHENS, Bart. aged 88.—
He has left the whole of his property and estates, in
Middlesex, Norfolk, Suffolk, and Essex, to Lord
Viscount RANELAGH.

The following atie6ling account of the disastrous
effects of the late storm among the shipping in the
neighbourhood of the Tees is contained in a letter
from a person who was an eye-witness of the dis-
tressing scene:—" On Friday, the tsth instant, a
fleet of Colliers got out of Shields; the day fol-
lowing, the wind coming on to blow a heavy gale
at E. N. E. about twenty sail wire caught clOse in
with the land, near Hartlepool, and were under the
necessity of running tOr the Tees. The first ship
struck on a sand near the mouth of the river, and
falling into deep water, went to the bottom, and all
on board perished. The second vessel ran upon the
beach, as did also the fourth, and held together till
the life-boat, which was drawn along the beach from
Redcar by horses, arrived to the rescue of the crews,
who were all brought safe to shore, though nearly
exhausted with cold and fatigue, having been cling-
ing to the rigging upwards of four hours. The third
vessel struck upon a shoal, and almost immediately
afterwards went to pieces, thus consigning the whole
of the crew to a watery grave. One of the ships
struck upon the bar, and had four of her people
washed overboard. Several of the vessels had two
or three of their people thrown out by the violence
of the sea. Eighteen sail got into the Tees, seve-
ral of them with the loss of boats, masts, or yards.
On the following day the body of a well-dressed
woman was taken up on the beach, with two gold
rings on her fingers, having a 501. in her pocket,
with 20s. and a one-pound note. Her name ap-
pears to be Mary Lockwood, of Scarborough, and
the vessel in which she was lost, the Plymouth, of
that port."
In the garden of Mr. Richard Mason, of Strange-
ways, Lancashire, akraspberry-tree is at this time
bent down by the ripe fruit which loads its boughs,
being the second crop it has' furnished the owner
this year.
MURDER.—The following are the particulars of
the horrid murder committed on the body of Sarah
Styling, of Broadhurst, near Bridgewater, in Somer-
setshire

On the morning of Wednesday, the l sth inst. the
husband of the deceased went out, and did not return
home until about ten 'o'clock e4t night, when he
found all his doors and windows fast, and not re-
ceiving any answer to his knocks, he forced his
way in—to his great grief he found his wife a corpse,
murdered ! the back part of her skull being cut
open. The horrid deed was supposed to have been
perpetrated by a small hatchet, as one was found in a
bloody state. The deceased's pockets were turned
out, and the contents taken also, for the purpose
of getting her keys, as the drawers were unlocked,
two tOl notes, some cash, a watch, some small valu-
able articles stolen, some articles of plate, and a
large quantity of wearing apparel; which it is suppos-
ed were taken away in a .corn bag. A, gun and
horse were also discovered to have been stolen. A
lad about IS years of age, a servant to Mr. Styling,
who was left in the house when Mr. Styling left
home, was suspeaed, as he was not in the house, nor
was he to be found In the neighbourhood; and he
has not since been heard of. He hired himself to
Mr. Styling by the name of 'Thomas Gage ; but
there is since, upon enquiries being made after him,
every reason to believe his name is Tarr. He lived
with Mr. Jeffries a butcher, of Dalverton, from
whom it was suspeaed he stole a guinea, when he
was a mere boy, and left his place when his master
was gone. The last time he was seen was about
seven o'clock on the evening the murder was com-
mitted, by a farmer crossing Gunnore Park, about
a mile from Mr. Styling's house, on horseback,
Sitting on a bag, which, it was imagined, contained
the stolen property. He had a gun in his hand,
supposed to be the one stolen from his master's
house; and there is no doubt but it was loaded, as
he had purchased some powder and shut a short time
before.

itIOTi AT COVENT-GARDEN THE A TaN

Bow-ifitEET.:---At the end of the second na Of
the Ballet; last night, two pers6ns were brought intd
the (Ace; charged with Creating ti riot in the i)it of
the Theatre.

Jame 3 Osborne, of Aldersgate-street, builder, de-
posed, that the prtsoners, on their entering into the.
pit, at hall-priCe, commenced a riot, by *calling btit.
0. P., Standing bn the seats, dancing and•lteeping
time with the ejaculation of 0. P. and that they
forced their way to the fiont of the pit, driVing
fore them several females, who were in the houSe
when the curtain rose, and Who were driven out of
.the pit"; that he, the witness, had been ascitiltect by
them ; he gave them a caution to conduct them-
selves more orderly, or else they would be 1.-ikera
into custody. This made them more violent, and
they ra❑ up and down the seats, in the most outra,
geous maihner, and sang ‘e God save the Knig,"
while two of the actresses, Miss Bolton and Miss
Martyr, sang on the stage, which perfeetly drOwned
their voices, and prevented Elie audience from

hearing.

His testimony was corroborated by Peter Cum-
mins, of Lancaster, and Mr: Bronden.

'dr. NARITA ca:leri on them for their defence..
The first s:ate.l, that his name was
Showers, a Clerk belonging to the East India House;
that he had stood on the benches beca.o.ic he could
not otherwise see, as the petsoni betnre him w ere
standing up ; and 'that he had Walked along the
benches to find out a place where he could sit
do,vn, and, at the same time., have a view of the
sLge; he denied having mEde a noise, or having
disturbed any person.
The other defendant stated his name to be
Richard Adams, and denied the entire of the charge
against him, except that he had joined in the song
of " God s:we the King."
Mr. GISAHAYI observed, it was impossible that
they, the Magistrates, could give much credit to that
loyalty which went to injure a part of his Majesty'S
subje6ls, and to prevent another part from enjoying
rational amusement.
