CADIZ, ArluL 12.—We have been under consi-
derable anxiety here respecting the result
,of a
counter-revolt-atoll, which had been planned and

lieve he intends to erect a large mansion there,

to build a large country house and a botanical
garden. The General.% and others of his suite, in
,order to imitate him, have hired lious,e for a yeor ;
this seems to give credit to and confirm their plan
of supporting the important line of the Douro,
till a. powerful army, or a second Arapiles oh-
lige them to take shelter behind the Ebro.

a great review of 'tilt infantry and cavalry here

Intelligence from the frontiers of Beira and
Tras4Ninontes.—lt appears that the .Frettell will
evacuate Satama»ca, and entirely ruin the city, and
large buildings. which served for hospitals and ma-
gazines for the Allied Artny ; this intelligence we
believe because we know the since the 20th_March ,
the French have been sending toyalladolid all their
sick and baggage, and all thane attached to the
French party have,taken the same road, an evident
sign of an approaching retreat.
