Dispatches were yesterday afternoon received from
Mmiral DE Councy at Corunna, dated the 23d ult.
*dosing dispatches flom Sir DAVID BAIRD, dated
rig 17th.—It was rumoured in consequence that ac.
'bilious of the actual junction of the British troops has
,eve bOlo received. This event, there is every reason to
iiii
. , , has before this time taken place ; but when
*Dario Batp *rote, it had not : he was, how-
, on the point of joining Sir JOHN Moon:, whose
wod.quarters were then at a distance of about twenty-
"), miles.
This intelligence is highly satisfactory. The com .
pooication between the two armies was already esta-
blished ; nor did it experifnce any interruption : and
they might be said to have formed a line extending
From Benevento to Torn. The Marquis DE TA Ro-
yoa, who had collected a well organized force of
between 20 and 50,000 men at Leon, had marched
from thence, for the purpose, it was supposed, of at-
tcking a French division at Burgos, and which, it
u generally supposed, he would have very little
iculty in subduing; and the position of the British
o was at the same time so advantageous, as to
the most favourable result from their future

The French Army may prosecute their advantages
l 2 line towards the South ; but whilst the British
srces possess the means of pressing upon any }lard.
ilar part of the line of their communication with
ranee, ►he enemy must at all times be exposed to

INe possibility of being cut off from those points
berm they are to expect the arrival of reinforce-
tents. Besides which, it is said that such a commu-
Aitation had been established with the army of Ito.

r.t, as would enable the British and Spanish

brces to effect a direct concentration, whenever such
measure should be deemed necessary ; and thus
Auld the Allies, in case of emergency, be able to
oppose to the enemy an army of 60,000 men, induci-
ng 40,000 British troops, a force competent, we
rust, to the task of maintaining itself against any
fivision which the enemy can now spare to send
tiliast it, and certainly capable of s"ccessfully en-
sauntring the reinforcements now on their march to
ktio the French artny in the heart of Spain.
The above accounts were brought by the SWALLOW,
