ANSWER.

SlRE—With the greatest pleasure we have receiv-
ed the Royal Order of your Majesty, of the date of
15th, enjoining us to redouble our exertions for the
supply of the English auxiliary troops. We have
the satisfaaion to inform your Majesty, that the in-
habitants litre supply every thing with the greatest
alacrity, and this town contributes 1000 rations
daily, and meal and oats more than could be ex-
petted front a country so ravaged by the enemy.
We have used every means to coned all the grain
belonging to the Government of Garovillas, which
is daily grinding in the mills of Talaban. The flour
is afterwards deposited on the two bridges in the
said town of Garovillas, in order that it may be in
readiness whenever the Intendant may apply for
provisions. The oats are deposited in Santo Jago
del Campo, all within the distance of four leagues.
If SENHOR DON LAURENCE CALVO will send an or-
der, it shall be immediately executed.

Wu request your Majesty to be convinced that our
patriotism cannot be exceeded. Provisions are daily
arriving, even more, in the opinion of almost every
one, than are necessary, this Province being as frank
and liberal as any other., if not more so.—Liston
Gazelle of 29.
