rAPIIRS 'PRISENTRD BY HIS MAJEsTY't COMMAND
TO BOTH HOLTiES OF •PARLIAMENT, VEllitt7.4ltY

2, 1805-
No, I .-- Extraa of ; Dispatch. .from T. If. Fairies, Esq. to
Lord HAWK eSBURY, dated Madrid, tot!' June, 1823. Re-
ceived 3 ist July.
It. is pos%ible that the inclosed intelligence may
have already reached you through Lord Robert
Firzgerild.
On queationing the Prince of Peace, he declared,
that the King had made repeated .instances to be
informed of the asseintilege of such, a body of
Troops, but that no explanation had been obtained.
This certainly does not appear very probable ; but
it is a fad that this Government are treated with
great reglea. on the subject of Portugal, and are
kept in the dark as to the objea of
,the Corres.
pendence which has. been passing with such aai.
'lcy tier ween Generals Bournoriville and Lanntai.
M. Cevallos, when I mentioned to him the intel-
ligence which I had received, said that he had re..
ceived the 'same, but that later intelligence had.
persuaded hint that the assemblage would not. be se
great or so immediate ; and I yesterday received a
report agreeing with this latter opinion.,
(Translation of Inclosure in No. I.)
Extras of Intelligence from Bayonne, dated 3oth May.
thave already mentioned to you the arrival of
some Troops at this place ; two other Brigades are.
expected the r3lll Floreal (ad June), the 77th anal
the 24th. There will be, independently of the
two divisions of 35,030 men each, intended for
the conquest of Portugal, a body of reserve of
tz,ooo. The Camp is already marked out at Bi.
lard (a league and.a halt from hence). I believe I
have already.. told you that one of these divisions
will march by Pcrpignan, and the other toy Bay.
onne.- Thirry.sevcn thousand men are therefore
exprclrd bete ; but as I have just said, the 12,000
cf reserve only will remain. The Army will after-
wards snatch into Spain. The command of it is
rieisionally given to General Cara St. Cyr, .a re-
Liion, I fancy, of who was Ambassador at
'Madrid. General La Marque is intrusted with the
organization of these Troops.

Sth lune.
There the present nothing new, or, at least
very intetebtiug; 'rue arrival et suine Battalions,
and of a Regiment of Cliabseuts Cavalry, ,the 24th,
that which in the laat war,scrved the campaigri
of
Portugal; they are tolerably well trounced, but
badly equip*, or rather badly clothed. We art
now assured that the Army which is coming here
will net exceed 5 or 6000 men, although it is stiil
tepUrted.tilat it will be augakented to 40.603. I
believe it, for I do not see that the Povanment has
Lts largets disposable Force;

No. 1 1.--Extraa of a Dispatch from J. 11. Fa sn s, Esq.
to Curd tlsw ass U Y ciated Madrid, 6U I uly 1801. ltc-

c-eived ,scl Aug.

. I have to acknowledge the receipt of your Lord-
ship's dispatch of the ad ult. and I have great.satis.
faction in relleCting that the last which your Lord.
ship will have received from me will thew that I
have been fortunate enough to conform soy conduct
to the general spirit and tendency of the instruc.
crone which your Lordship had laid down for my
guidance. • -
The present state of-things is one which it it not
very easy' to define. The Prince of Peace has not'
yet thought 'proper to commit hiMielf .ank 'die.
tinel proposals upon the subjett of obtaining a gut.
ranter) for that neutrality which this Country pro.
slesses itself to have adopted ; at the saute time there
is an evident increase in the ill.hutnour of the
French 'Ambassador, and some serious -altercations
hive, passed between him and the Prince of Peace.
Upon my making some inquiries upon the subjedt
of" the French rassemblement-at Bayonne, • upon
which he had beforedemanded an' explanation of the
French Ambassador, as mentioned in my letter of
the toth ult. he told me, that he at last declared to
him that if an Army was .colleCted there, he should
eitablish a superior force in eampopiiosite to them.
Some few days since General Buurnonville declared
that the French Army was dispersed into,canton.
Merits, and the orders for joininuit countermanded,
and ilisisted against the eetablishment .of a Spanish
Camp.' The Prince of Terme, however, told him,
that. it could still be adhered toss a measure of re-
caution-, He has said likewise, that if the French
attempted to force* a passage he would reise an Army,
and that the King •would pot ,himself at the head of
it to oppose them.
When I last called upon him, after the receipt of
yonr Lordship's dispatch; hold him,. that though' I
had already explained to hitn the intentions or His
Vldirsty respecting Portugal, yet that I had receiv.
td• such positive instruftione from your .Lordship
Opon the subjeCt,. that I couldtsorforbear repeating
the crime declaration in a more formal:manner. To
this he answered, that he believed that the difer-
ences. between France and Portugal were in a train
of being settled, but that this-. Country would-still
continue' its prepatations, •amrthat •he had given
orders for twelve Regiments of Militia to be mem.
bled, to form part.ot,a campin Castile. .
It should Seem singalar;-and'even suspicious, that
while language of- this kind is pasting, no pOsitive
deClaiiition should be made to Great Britain, nor any.
distina. statement 'made of the means which might be
necessary, and Which they, miihrexpett Great Biitain
to contfibute in vindication ut their neutrality if
attempted to be violated.. It is,' Owever; remark.'
able, that- many Spaniards 'with 'WhOrti I have eon-
Versed, and whet were ardently desirous'of an alliance
against France;' have never seemed. to look lot' any
rotivance (rota England beyond her cooperation;
.the various symptoms cif ill-humour on the port
of ily<;Frvtich IVlinister, are evidently real and tad.
