" By a communication from the Second Legion
of Castile under 1). P. fVl4ett, to the Orin:Nl in
Chief; it appears that near sallagan,, .out.
thou
itand i:vlantry and cavalry
.of the .enemy, who in-'
fisted the adjacent country,' had- been 41,10dged.,
The eitterprize was six days in prosress, and was!
completely succeksfui, after a 'series of ` sangui-
nary cotifilas. In the vicinity of G;nti0,.3130 Fiend)
appo'ared, both horse and foot, .who were attacked!
by Cu), Posoa, ceinnianding at Foncebadan, whd
put stted diem as far as Murins. Some o' her. Guerilla'
parries followed up the advantage to the very gates
of Astorga, where such of the fugitives as escaped
at lint obtained an asylum. The circuit of country
immediately round Astorga is at present under, the
power of the enemy. Of the city they are improv..
ing the fortifications, seven additional pieces of ar.
tillery are mounted ,on the walls, and others are
collected, which, it is supposed, are: to
,be applied
.to the like purpose.
Ativiees from' Castile state, that there has been a
considerable movement among tim 14ench troops
belonging to the garrison of Valladolid. About
5000 twit bid taken the dire6tion of Arevalo, and
3000 that of Medina del
.Pairpo, 'So that 70tt were
411 for the proteaion or Valladolid. The objetiMir
these movements was not correily ascertained, but
it was sopposed;o be to protect Ciudad Rodrigo from
any inclessaiion by the British army.
The superior Junta of has, in a public
'order, in terms of high, compliment, expressed its
gratitude so Brigadier-qeneral Sir 1-.l.flouctt.As, now
res:cletit at Corunna, for his inaefatigable exettions,
in ,cunjcnation with the Commarsaer in Chief, to
render etleaual the defence of that province, and to
procure arms and clothing, not only for the forces
attached to it, but for the patriotic parties ,chstri•
bused through the kingdons.
BynNArAttTE has been some‘sikit impolitic in de-
vising swum: of' Government which he pretends
to have extracted front the condua of this country,
for if our Ituters were, to retaliate, and deduce
MAXIMS from his cordati, personal and political,
what a Code NAPOLSON might they derive from the
whole of his public life, in order to instruct Usurp-
ers in the arts of plumifer, murder, ingratitude, op-
pression, and every species of turpitude that can
degrade human nature, bring ruin and misery on a
people, and even shake the fabrib of society, by de -
stroyisig the principles of religion, morality, justice,:
and all sense of patriotism. For an outline of his
open enormities, the following summary, from a
respes9able competitor, may at present suffice :--
The bloody enslavement of Switzerland, against
afipulated treaty and natural rig:it)—the devastation
eat theTyrol ;--the murder of the Duke D'ENoitlaN,
kadeably on neutral ground;---the annexation.
of Holland, after a solemn promise that ;her. hide...
penclenco Should be 'ptateeted on condition Of her
tesigniog some of her territories, which she aid re-
sign ;...tbe seizure of eight millions of. American

assurances of equitable tradelr,dle entrapping the
!loyal
.Fareily of Spain to an amicable conference at.
Bayonne, and then carrying them of, and retaining
them id captivity ;----trig conveying French, troops'
into Spain, on pretence that they were to march
apinst Portugal ; and seizing the strong holds of the
former kingdom, whist 'in, perfect amity with'
France ;—and, lastly,—for time and town, not sub-
