other hand, the presence of an 'army so brilliant in
Xespea, and in particular-cavalry and artillery,'

bead the celebrated and fortunate Genetal:Wellesley.

the very probable prespeet of the near, complete de-,

Private Letters from Tralog. Montes state, that a
Spanish corps of 9000 Men, has entered Chaves,
whence it will probably direct its march to the.
Minim. It is supposed• that the said corps is proba-
bly marching in the above diredion, to suspend and
obstruct the retreat of the French army, shOuld -it in-
%ltd. to escape by that road to Gallicia. :Tee must
'd'etettnine whether this supposition correct,

Colonel Patrick, after having, covered with regi.-.
i.nent of foot the retrograde, movement from .IYlao-
bufe; he reached the, bridge without being wounded ;
.
that haVing- afterwards dislodged the enemy from
the bridge, and pursued them as far as Amarante, he
was there wounded, and immediately conveyed, first
to Mezanfrio, and afterwards to Lamego, where he
unfortunately expired. England has lost in him a
meritorious subjoft, and Portugal a defender, whose
undaunted valour rendered him worthy Of a better
fate.

Letters from Alien- rigo assert that Echevarria, one
of the General Officers who commands the van of
General Cuesta's army, destroyed a French corps of

ligence is not official, yet very little doubt.is enter-
ot its truth.
