Downing-street, April 2, 1812.
Dispatches, o which the folio ving are ext-vic„
have beew received troin the Earl of Welliiivor,
addressed to the Eail of Liverpool.

- Elvas, March 13, rBiz.
I moved the head-quarters front Frenada on the
6th, and arrived here on the,lith instant,

There are none of the enemy's'troui s in the field
im Esiremadura, excepting that part of 1!“. sth
corps not in the Orison of liidajoz, the head-quar-
ters of which are at Vfl.a Franca, and a acii-
ment, consisting of about a division, under,Generel
Darican, whose head-quarters are at La Serena.
The enemy have made no movement, and I
baire heard' of no operation of important since I
addressed your Lordship last. According to"the
last accounts, Marshal Suult was in the lines be-
tore Cadiz.

Camp before Badajoz, March zo, £Bl2.

According to the intention which I announced to
your Lordship, I broke up the cantonments of the
army on the I sth and 16th inst. and invested Ba-
dajoz, on the left of the River Guadiana, 'on the
16th,- with the 3d, 4th, and light divisions of in-
fantry, and 'witch a brigade of Lieut. Gem Hamil.
ton's division i;ii the right: These troops are under
the command of Marshal Sir William Beresford and
Lieut. Gen. Pi&on. ,We broke ground on the fol-
lowing day, and -have established a parallel within
200 yards of the,soutwork called the Picurina, which
embraces the whole of the south-east angle of the
fort. The work has continued ever-since with great
celerity, notwithstanding the very bad weather
which we-have had since the 17th.

The enemy made a sortie yesterday from the gate
called La Trinidad, on the right of our attack, with
about 2000 inen. They were almost immediately
driven. in without ell-sealing any object•, with consi-
derable loss, by Major-General Bowes, who cor
flialld'ta the guard in the trenches. We lost upon
this occasion a very promising officer, Capt. Cuth-
bert, Aide-de-Camp to Lieut. Gen. Pi&on, killed;
and Lieut. Col. Fletcher was slightly wounded, but
I hope t Hat he will soon be abht to resume his-du-
ties. I have not yet got the teturns, but I believe
that our loss, since the commencernel:tot these ope=
rations, amounts to 120 killed and wounded.'

On the same day that Badajoz was invested,
Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Graham crossed the
Guadiapa, with the Ist, Gth, and 7th divisions of in-
fantry, and General Slade's and General Le Mar
chant's brigadeS of, cavalry, and direled his march
upon Valverde and Santa Martha, and thence to-
wards Llerena ; while Lieut. Gen. Rowland Hill,
with the 2d and Lieutenant-General •Hawilton's di-
visions, and Major-GenerAl Long's cavalry, marched
froM his cantonments near. Albuquerque upon Me-
rida,-and thence upon Almendralejo. These move-
ments induced
.General Drouet to retire trom Yi)la
Frinca open Hurnachus, in order, I conclude, to
be in communication With General Darican's thrif
Alan, which was about La Serena.

I have heard from Sir Thomas Graham and Sir
Rowland Hill to the igih..instant. The former
was at Los Santos and Zatia, with Genera! Slade's
Cttalry at le:ilia 'Franca; and the latter at /Omen-
dralejo. Lieutenant -.General Sir Rowland Hill
took three officers aryl a few hussars prisoners in
Merida.

I have reports from' the neighbourhood' of Ciudad
Rodrigo of the 17th instant. The enemy had sent
a small detachment to Bejar, principally with a
view to plunder; but there was no appearance of
any immediate movement. The 6th division had
moved from Talavera, through the Puerto del Pico,
on the Bth and gih inst.; and the 4th dh'ision, on
the same days, from Toledo through the Guadarra-
ma ; an.i tly.t first:division only remained on the Ta-
gus, near Talavera.
