the Montezen roa,:, after exacting a contribution
of a million of rials.

We have not received our correspondence from
Madrid, and therefore know no further of Gene-
ral HILL since the Ist, _when his cavalry entered
Behnontc ; such a movement .plainly indicates
how little fear our Generals have of the junction
of the triumvirate, SUCHET, SOULT, andJouRDAN,
and replies to the fears tli4t some still entertain,
that these three impostors pretend-to reconquer
Madrid.

VALENCIA, SEPT. 1 .-JosErir arrived here yes-
terday a little before noon. All the renegadoes
svent out to meet him, cariying crosses, streamers,
and dancing to different kinds of music. All sorts
and sizes were in the procession, and the Arch-
bishop and Municipality took care to distinguish
themselves, and the whole rabble rout proceeded
to the cathedral.

This mighty Monarch, JOSEPH, is but mean in
his appearance, and acts rather awkwardly in
these farces. The Patriarch, Ministers, Generals,
and their ladies, seemed to be, many of them, in
but an ill-humour notwithstanding their pretended
joy. They are in no small perplexity to guess how
all this will lend. The officeri and soldiers of Su-
CHET utterly abhor JOSEPH and all his set.
Lisnox, 10.—They write from Madrid,
of the date of the 2d, that on the 13th September,
18,000 men, of the Army of the Centre and of
..Irragon arrived at Ahnansa, of which force 2000
men were detached to Albacete. "

On the 3d inst. it was not known with certainty
at Seville, what position SMUT occupied.

The army of General HILL on the 30th ult. oc-
cupied the line of the Tagus, from Puebla de
Montalban, to a little beyond Aranjuez, the ad-
vanced guard of his cavalry entered Belmonte on
the Ist inst.

CADIZ, OCT. A.—By order of the Duke of
CIUDAD Itomuco, the English General MAIT-
LAND, Chief of the Expeditionary Troops from
the East, has been deprived of his command, and
has been replaced by his second in command.

GRANADA, SEPT. 26.—0 n the 24th, the last
French marched from Guadix ; but none of them

CAniz, SEPT. 26,---The General and Extraordi-
nary Cortes of the Kingdom, in the secret Sitting
of to-day, appointed Senor Don Juan Perez
the Fifth Individual of the Regency of
Spain.

The following is the substance of the Dispatches
received yesterday from Lord CATHCART

Foreign Office, Oct. 22, 1817.

Dispatches were this morning received from
General Viscount CATHCART, K. T. dated St.
Petersburg'', October 3, containing the follow-
ing particulars
Reports have been received from the army to
the North of Moscow, up to the 28th ultimo in-
clusive, by which it appears that the advanced
ports of that army patrole daily to within a few
versts of Moscow, on all the roads leading to the
northern, eastern, or western direction, and that
French parties have not ventured far on any of
them—whenever such parties have been met, they
have been driven in, or'cut to pieces.
The main army, under Prince KU TUSOW, oc
cupies ,a strong position to the south of Moscow,,
at the distance of little more than twenty versts.
It commands all the roads leading in a southern
direction, and communicates with the patroles of
the northern corps, in the eastern and western
roads. Several French detachments and convoys
of ordnance and ordnance stores have been taken
on the Smolensk° road, and detachments from
the main army have been successful on other quar-
ters, particulars of which are not yet received.
" A powerful Russian force is assembling to the
westward, of which the Moldavian army forms a
part. Count WITGENSTEIN has bad several bril-
liant affairs with the enemy on the Dwin2, and a
corps from Riga took possession of Mittau on the
30th of September—the enemy every where re-:

" Several supplies, intended for the French
army, have .been taken ip that quarter. The
French have burnt tile greater part of Moscos()
which they found stript, and evacuated by most
its inhabit:nits—the Steward of. the Foundli4
Hospital being the most eminent public function'
ary they found in the city.

" The ar►ny is reinforced, and the zeal of
ranks of the people continues to be manifested
by contributions and personal voluntary service."

The Chief of the Staff, Baron de WINTziNov
RODE, reports, under date of the 25th of Sep'
telpher, ay, follows :

" Upon the roads of St. Petersburgh, of Dmr
triefsk, of Jaroslaft, and of Wolodimir, all i;
well ; and the enemy has made no movement in
advance. My van-guard towards Moscow re,
inains as in my last report ; and Colonel JELO'
WAISKOY, who
,commands it, has reported to me,
that the Solnik PSCHENITSCHNIKOFF, who had
advanced from Tchenov-Jam towards Moscow,
met with the enemy near the village of Nikols,
and having charged , his advanced guard, made 30
prisoners. At Nikols there are only some cavalrf
. - -
of the enemy, the patrole of his infantry having
retired to Mos Cow.

" Having learnt that the enemy bad occupied
the town of Wolokolamsk, threatening by this
movement my right flank, I immediately detached
Colonel BENKENDORFF, with the Cossacks of the
-Guard, and the regiment of Tchermosonboff.
ordered him to reconnoitre the enemy, and to
draw him away, if it be possible, from Woloko-
lamsk. I ordered Colonel JELONVAISKOY not to
retire one step, that the enemy might not perceive
my movement.

" In the mean while, I have advanced with the
whole of my detachment towards the town of Klein,
and posted myself seven versts off in the village
of Davidofka, in order the better to support
Colonel BENKENDORFF, and anticipate the enemy
in his movements from Wolokolamsk towards
Twer. Yesterday I received accounts from M.
BENKENDORFF, that Wolokolanisk was only occu-
pied by a party of the enemy, who have retired
towards Roussa. I have ordered ALBENKENDORFF
to post himself near Rousso., and to occupy the
environs of Mojaisk ; and then, after having joined
the detachment of Major PRENDELb, to act 4.
all the roads which lead from Mojai3k towards the
north.

" This very moment, I have received from Ma-
.,
jorPRENDELL the intelligence of his having already
had some affairs with the enemy: I am convinced
that the movements of Major PRENDELL 'Were the
cause of the abandonment of Wolokolamsk, by
the enemy, who, according Co Major I)IEN-
nELL's report, suffered great loss. He has sent
me thirty-six prisoners.
" To-morrow I -shall myself advance towards
the town of Woskreseuck, whence it w;li he easy
for me to reinforce my advanced guard, which 15
at Tschernoy Grjas, as well as BENKENDORFF'S
detachment at the same sime, I shall attain by
this means my principal object, which is to cover
Klein and Twer, as well as tho road froMPeters-
burgh."
