MONDAY, OCTOBER 5 1812.

We stopped the Press on Saturday last to insert,

in a Second Edition, the Telegraphic Message with

which we were favoured at the Admiralty, an-

nouncing the investment of Burgos by thcl.larquis

His Lordship's dispatches have since arrived,

and the following Bulletin of their contents was

this day issued :7-

WAR DEPARTMENT.

Downing-street, Oct. 5, 1812.
BULLETIN.

Dispatches have been received from the Marquis

of WELLINGTON, dated Villa de Toro, near Bur-

gos, 21st September, 1812.

His Lordship had been joined on the 16th, at

Pamphlica, by three divisions of infantry and a
small body of cavalry of the Army of Gallicia, un-

der the Captain-General CI-STENOS. On the 17th

the enemy took a-strong position behind Celada del

_„.
Camino, froth which thev retired iii the night.—
. _

The enemy, having left a garrison of 2500 men in

the Castle of Burgos, continued his retreat thrc,ugh

that town to Britiesca, leaving some stores and a

large quantity of wheat and barley.

'On the morning of the 19th, the Marquis o.

WELLLNGTON passed the river. Arrangon, and the

enemy's out-posts were immediately driven in

At night the born-works which they had con-

structed on the bill of St. Miguel, commanding

part of the Castle, and which they had occupied

in strength, was stormed and carried. Three

pieces of cannon, one Captain? and 62 men, were

taken.

The Allied loss was.severe•: on the part of the

British, 3 officers and 44 men were killed, 10

officers, and 241 then wounded.

Accounts were received this day from South
America, os which the following Bulletin was is-

sued :

Downing-street, Oct. 5, 1812.

By accounts from Curagoa and St. Thomas,
dated the sth and 25th August, it appears the City'
of Caraccas capitulated to the Royalist Army, un-.
der General MONTEVERDE, on the 28th July, and
that La Guira surrendered at discretion on the
31st.

General Mut.t;,.DA. is closely imprisoned at the
latter place. The greatest distress has been ex-
perienced at the Caraccas.

Corunna Papers reached town this morning to
the 25th ult. Souvr is Mated to have altered the
line of his retreat, and to have taken the road of
La Mancha. There is also a report that SucHET's
army had been routed with the loss of 6500 men
killed, wounded, and prisoners. The following
are extracts :

, CORVNNA, SEPT. 23.—Yesterday we received
Papers from Madrid,Guadalaxara, Zamora, neigh-
bourhood of Burgos, &c. &c. By them we are
pit in possession of the followilig communica-

tion

The Madrid Gazette of the 15th inst. says,—
We know for certain that SOULT, who made
indications of retiring by Hellin, has now taken
the road of La Mancha, by the Barranca Hondo,
to march for Infantes,"
We likewise know that between Alcera and
Alcoy, StCHET'S army has been routed, with the
loss of 6,500 men, in prisoners, killed, and
wounded, in consequence of which he was

obliged-to retire, information of which undoubt-
edly induced SouLr to alter his direction, and
take a wider and, less difficult road.

MADjUD, SEPtt. 15.---From a person' ziorthy of
,• . •
every credit,-we. know that hitherto there has not
been the
_least sign
.of any reinforcement coming
from France. .'

•
SEPT. 25.—dnthe 4th inst. disitnbarked in Ali-
cant, Gen. Elio, with 3000 men ; it is said he is
to take the command of the
.army of the • centre,
which bad 'received. orders to hold itself in readi-
ness to march,. but we are ignorant what is to be
its destination ; sonic believe that this resolution
has caused,SotmT's retreat, who is reptirtecl to be
in Guailix and Baza, and who will probably de-
sist from marching towards the points of -Loca
and Murcia, on account of the plague having ma-
nifested itself in these two cities.;,

On the Gth O'DokNEL was still in Heflin, with
all his infantry, the English General MAITLAND,
with 4is troops, were in the neighbourhood of
Alicante ; and General ROCHE in AlcoY, with the
reserve of that army. • -
The French were in Alcbra, and their advance
extended to S.Tilipe ; upon their right flank
there were 500 horse belonging to the 3d army ;
and General FRERE was in Albacete, with the 're-
mainder of the cavalry.
It is to he hoped that the Spanish and English.
will effect in that part of the Peninsula similar
scenes 'to thoSe•acted, in Castile, and that shortly
the enemy on the Ebro, will be Obliged to confine
themselves to its frontiers, even under shelter of
the `important places gair.ed by perfidy, and the
diabolical machinations of NAPOLEON and his
agents. .

CORUNNA, SEPT. 24.—8 y letters from Madrid,
it appear's that the. Holy Tribunal of the Inquisi-
tion had been•re-established.
MADRID, 'SEPT. 15.—The French have eva-
cuated the cities of Tilrazona and Borga, whose
garrisons, after having demolished the fortifica-
tions, marched for Zaragossa, supported by 300
'infantry and 200 horse, which, for this purpose,
had marched from that capital. This is an un-
equivocal proof of the fear-Which accompanies the
French, and of the necessity under which they
are of concentrating their forces in order to main-
tain themselves for any time,

• CoRUNNA, SEPT. 23.—A1l communication; and
the entry of provisions in the cities of Soria and
Vitoria, have been interrupted.
. Besides the garrisons of Tarazona, and ,Boya,
those from Mallen, Ahnunia, and Calatayud have
also fallen back to Zaragosa.
MASSENA has arrived at Bayonne without artillery.
A train consisting of 27 pieces, which he brought
with him has received orders to fall back. It is
said he will enter Spain with 5000 men, and that
he is to replace MARimos-T.
General MINA, in different actions during the
month of August; has occasioned the enemy a loss
of more than 2000 men.

A Malta and Gibraltar Mail arrived last night,
bringing Gibraltar Papers to the 26th ult. and ac-
counts from Malta and Sicily to the 27th of Au-
guSt.—lt is again reported, that the British troops
had effected a landing at Cattaro, but there is no-
thing respecting it, except the mere rumour. An
atrocious plot against the Parliament of Sicily was
attempted to be carried into effect on the 12th of
August, but the explosion taking place sooner
than was intended, happily no mischief was done.-

A Gottenburgh Mail arrived last night, but
brought no intelligence of importance, the Papers
containing no fresh accounts from Russia, nor any
thing further respecting the Swedish Exk,edition.

His Majesty's ship St. Albans, Capt. DEVON-
SHIRE, nrrived off, Falmouth from Lisbon wtih
French prisoners for Plymouth, and landed
an Aid-du -Camp of Marshal BERESFOLD.—
The Marshal was at Cintra, and ve are
happy to say, nearly r recovered of his wounds.—
We have about 6000 sick and wounded at Sala-
manca, who receive the kindest attention, and are•
recovering fast.
A reinforcement or 3000 men bad landed at
Lisbon, and marched to join the army.

The Marlborough-has arrived at Falmouth, with
convoy, from Cadiz. A letter has been sent to
Rear-Admiral LEGG E, commanding at Cadiz, from
the Government, acknowledging in the handsomest
terms the services of the British Navy during the
thirty months they have assisted in the defence of
Cadiz. A Spanish -74 had arrived at Cadiz with
two millions of dollars from Vera Cruz. All the
British troops that remained at Cadiz had marched'
for Seville to join Colonel SKERRITT.
