PARIS, OCTOBER s.
Private letters from Bayonne state, that C.4nettl
Blek (or Blake, an Irishman, who has been long in
the Spanish service) had advanced from the Astu-
rias to Bilboa, with about 80($.), men. The French
garrison there immediately retreated, according to
the orders they had received, to Mondragon, whilst
Marshal Bessieres, who had moved his head-quarters
to Burg, marched with 8000 men to cut off theenemy's ,
communication.
On the 24th of September, accounts reached Bay-
onne from Vittoria, that he had already arrived at
Laredo, and it was expected that not a single Spite
niard would escape him.
The same letters add, that this movement of Ge-
neral Blake, being probably a feint to cover one of
cmeater importance, Marshal Ney had also marched
with 3Q,000 men to fall upon General Castanos,
should he appear before the French line, whilst Ge-
neral Moncey made the necessary dispositions to attack
him in flank.
Tranquillity being restored in the kingdom of Na-
ples, his Majesty has dissolved all the military corn -
missions. A pardon has been proclaimed for those de-
serters who shall rejoin their corpswithin a limited time.
As the expenditure for the public service of the
year, 1809, will amount to 12,700,000 ducats, and
the revenues are not at present sufficient to meet that
charge, his Neapolitan Majesty has resolved to aug-
ment the. land-tax.

DIVIDENDS.

" Erfurth, Sept. 27.
" It is stated in the German papers that the Em-
peror, on his journey to Erfurth, wrote to the Prince
Primate a letter, in which he says—" I am goinrto
Germany to gtve Peace to Europe."
PARIS, OCTOBER a. •
By letters from Bayonne, of the 80th of Septem-
ber, we learn, that the Spanish General, (Blake) en-
tered Bilboa on the 20th, at 10 o'clock in the morning,
at the head of 8000 men.
The French garrison, consisting of 1200 men, of-1
fected their retreat in good order. AU the Constitu-1
ted Authorities, all the French resident at Bilboa,
and a great number of the families of distinction, and
among the rest, that of Massaredo, also left the place.
IThe object of this movement on the part of Blake,
was to make our army quit its position in the Ebro ;
but the dispositions taken by Marshals Ney and Bes-
sieres, frustrated the expectations of the Spaniards.
1 On the day when the above letters were sent off,
official intelligence had reached Bayonne, that our
troops had reoccupied Bilboa on the 26th. The Spa.
niards fled, without attempting to make any resist.
lance. The movement of Marshal Ney alarmed them
m, that their precipitate flight prevented General
Mouton from coming upon their rear, and totally de-
stroying them.
The insurgents had also made a movement in ad-
vance on the side of Amenago,- two miles from Mi-
randa. Marshal Bessieres marched to attack them,
d'feated them at every point, drove them back a great
way, and threw them into complete confusion. When
the courier came away, the Marshal was still Occu-
pied in pursuing them.
The letters from Bayonne of the Ist instant confirm
the above, and give the following statement of the
positions of our army :
The King's head-quarters are at Vittoria, Marshal
Bessieres has his head-quarte, sat Miranda. Marshal
Moncey at Pampeluna, and Marshal Ney at Bilboa.
It was reported at Bayonne, that Marshal Moncey
was engaged with the insurgents of Arragon along
the whole of his line, that he had obtained a 'complete
victory over them, and taken 60 pieces of cannon.
An immense quantity of provisions of all sorts has
been collected at Bayonne. All the magazines being
full, it was found necessary also to fill the cathedral
with bags of flour, biscuit, &c. The Director of the
fortifications had received orders to prepare 60,000
Isand-bags.
