COPY OF A LETTER, FROM AN OFFICER IN SPAIN TO

wig pRIEND, DATED CAMP, NEAR ORGARGAU,
AUGUST 8, -1813 :
I am just joined my regiment, and• found
thetas at Qrgargau, after a march of 73 days, from
Lisbon.--!tumours at present are various. Some
say that an armistice is to take place on the I:,th
instant, others on the contrary assert, that Mar-
quis WELLINGTON will certainly invade France as
soon as Painpeluna and Sin Sebastian -surrender.
Indeed, I begin to be of the latter opinion, see-
lag preparations already making for crossing the
river since the 6th ; we bad constant arrivals of
tillery and pontoons ; the cavalry alsO .contmenced approaching us ; oar present position is
very formidable-,--all
.the divisions of infantry are
place4l along the passes of the Pyrennees ; my di-
vision is stuck upon a mountain, and literally in
the very"clouds ; when clear we see France as tar
as Bayonne. The whole of the enemy's camps
and lines, just in front of San Sebastian. (now
besieged), lieon the left 'under us. To the right
we have a continuance ot the stupendous reach of
the Pyrenneel on the Bay of Biscay ; from oar
left flank at In], the ,tvhole,forms Most-grad n
and interesting, sight, such as few mortals ever
'saw. The French in front of us keep very quiet ;
indeed, one would suppose all hostilities ceased.
However, since. SOULT'S defeat near. Painpiuna,
of which you must lia,ve heard by this time the
detail ot, there is little or no apprehension,that
they will again attempt to attack our position.
The fact is, that the French army has lost ail
confidence and hope ot ever beating a British
force; and all must allow, that Lord WELLING-
{ TON has done worriers."
