LAIIIES AND GENTLEMEN,
TO the PROPRIETORS; who were pleased to
honour me with their support on Tuesday last, I re-
turn .my most sincere thank's : and my sense of obligation to_
them for such support, is not in any degree diminished by'rny
want of uccess.
I must, also beg leave to return my thanks to the consider,
Ole number of Proprietors, who assured me,,_ during the
course of my Canvas, that their votes were pre-engaged when
I declared my intention of becothing a Candidate for the
reetion, and who promised me their support upon a figure
occasion.
I have'with-held these thanks longet than I should outer-
- wise have done, because :at the time- of o&ring them, I
wished to coo.municate to the Proprietors my determina-
tion, as to my future conduct ; and I should be sorry, to
have that determination looked upon as the result of hasty
decision.
W hen I first became a Candidate for the Direffion, I did so
under a persuasion that my offering myself to 'the Proprie-
tors, to whom my conduel was well known, would be.ac-
Ceptable to them f and l,also thought, that I might he able
,to render some service to the Company.
The result of the Ballot has, I omfess, much abated the
vanity of these exTivaations ; and the labour of the Canvas
kas increased that desire of ease and retirement, the:prospeet
of which I was willing to relinquish.,
In haVing gone thin far, I gel 'as if I had icltScharged a
duty. But I do not feel it to be incumbent upon me to go
turther. My only hope is, that by retiring I shall not forfeit
the good opinion either of Iny personal friends, or of the many
respectable Proprietors who have, honoured me with their
support. The strong proofs olapprobation whiCh have been
bestowed upon me, and the various instances of kindness
Which I have received, have made their proper impression
upon my mind, and they will prove a comfort to mess long
as I live.
I am, Ladies end Gentlemen, with 4inucil iespea, your
Lost obedient and very humble servant, -

Strand, Jan, 19, 1810. •

hood of the town of Arcos, and Mina having learn-
ed that Chavarria was in his rear, ordered his party
of cavalry, consisting of forty men, to- pursue, as
soon_ as the action' commenced, whatever individual
of the enemy might take flight, because it might be
Chavarria himself ; and this order was,so well exe-
cuted that they adtually did seize and kill him, at
the same time allowing the two who accompanied
him to escape. They tied him to the tail of his
own horse, and dragged him through the streets
of the town, leaving him at last torn in pieces. His
death caused
.much joy to the intiabitanta of Pam-
' plonia, on account of the cruelty. with which he
had treated them. He states further, that, in the
same aetion; they killed above
,200 French, esclu-
siVelY of those who; escaped..in disorder by the way.
of Pampl-Uha, where they saw many arrive without
arms, and without necessaries. The same corres-
pondent learnt by a ftiehd of his, that. at Bayonne
Oloron, auclßordeos,
.there were, no troops. That
on the 22d of November, they had shot at Bay-
onne two Officers, -who had arrived . from the
forNorthfor having said that things did not go on
Well there : that forty smugglers entered Belchite
on the and. attacked seventy Frenchmen, kill-.
u g -eight of them, with a loss only of four on their
part ; but the Ftencly having taken their drummer
nailed him up alive to a post in the market.place of
Belchite ; that at :Pampluna, they had been above
two months without any. courier, and knew nothing
of what Wa: going on at. Madrid ; that at Alcaniz
alone there were in the castle.fot.r hundred French,
and: in the town a regiment of Poles : that
,at
Pamplona no exultatiou • was expressedon account
of the peace with Austria ; but on .the - contrary,
the. French' were afraid that, being obliged to eva-
cuate,Madrid, they should be compelled to retire to
the forts, and that much depression inigeneral pre-
vail among thorn'.

have thus laid before your Excellency the
whole of what I have heard, assuring you that you
may rely on whateter my Correspondent has
has stated to me, from the good opinion I know
him to deserve.

May God preserve your Excellency,
