Morning (Boulogne bearing about S.S.E. six leagues)
his Majesty's sloop under my command captured a
French privateer, named la Fortune, of 1* guns and
58 men, and commanded by Captain Tucker. She
was from Calais, two days on her cruize, and had not
made any capture.
From their usual intrepidity, they did not surrender
until the Beagle ran her alongside, notwithstanding
it blew strong with a heavy sea. One of their crew
was mortally wounded.-4—l have the honour to be, &c.

The MtnElva, Captain Hawkins, which
..arrived
at Plymouth on Thursday last, has been crazing for
some time on the north, and part of the south coast
.of Spain : every part of the north, Captain H. states,
is now in possession of the enemy. During the length
of time he was on the coast, he frequently went on
shore at Coruna, Gijon, Oviedo, St. Andero, Vie,
and other places. The officers report, that the inha-
bitants, with few exceptions, are totally indifferent
as to whether they were under the Government tif
their own Prince or the French, and many of them
even acknowledged that they should conceive them-
selves more happy wider the dominion of the latter.
The Bishop of SANTANDER did all in his power to
animate the inhabitants of his province to a noble at-
sistance of the French, and whenibe, found his exer-

tions or• example could no longer avail, in order to I
avoid falling into the hands of the enemy, he took
refuge with his suite on boardtbe MINERVA, aid was
most hospitably entertained by Captain HAWKINS for
ten days. He could not, however, be prevailed upon
entirely to quit his province, and was landed at a
port to the Southward, not then in possession of the
ferny. Captain H. relates the following anecdote
a, this Prelate : when invited by NAPOLEON to attend
him at Bayonne, with the time-serving Grandees
whom he had invited thither, the Bishop returned for
answer, that he was confident the Usurper would
never see the face of the ALMIGHTY in heaven, and
he should not see his (the Bishop's) on earth 1 '
We have received Oviedo Gazettes to the 7th in-
stant, and letters from Gijon to the Bth. They were:i
brought by the ketch COMMERCE, Captain Cnews,
which sailed from Villavitiosa, a port about four
leagues to the east of Gijon, on the 9th instant, and'
arrived at Plymouth on Saturday, with dispatches foi
Government from Colonel CARROL. The contents
of the dispatches are supposed to relate to advanta-
ges obtained by the. Marquis de la ROMANA over
the French, and to the general Vint stnd enthusiasm
,which is said to prevail in the Asturias. We sub.
join some extracts from the Oviedo Papers, but the
reportr of the evacuation of Spain by the French,
and the Declaration of Russia against BoNnevrrt,
are statements which show that little credit can be
given to the accounts published- in 'the Spatial
'Journals: The Oviedo Gazette contains an anima-
ted Address from Colonel CARROL to the Asturians.
A few hours before Captain CREWS sailed from
Spaih, he received a letter from Mr. Foams", the
Secretary of Colonel CARROL, dated the 7th instant,
in which he states, 44 we are in high spirits, in con-
sequence of two important victories having been
gained by the Marquis de la RomAslca And General
Votterica.”
While Captain CREWS was at Gijon, where he lan-
ded his cargo and remained some time, a large French
frigate-built ship,-mentiting 22 guns, commanded by
the (amens Soharme', laden with a valuable cargo,
consisting of the plunder which he had made in the
East Indies, amounting, it is supposed, to £200,000,
not knowing the change of affairs in Spain, was de,
toyed into Gijon, but it being a tide-harbour, she
grounded near the qnay, fell over, and bilged, but
goods to the amount of nearly ABO,OOO have been
saved. All the crew and passengers were marched
prisoners to Oviedo.
A private letter from Gijon, of the 7th says—" I
really believe I shall not be under the necessity of

~
'

•
changing my quarters, for this province irmitet be
occupied by the French for a long time to come, even
should; their armies be completely successful in the
neighbouring provinces. The Junta of Oviedo has
already 24,000 men, well armed, disciplined, and
' clothed. Well-planned measures will be put in exe-.
cution, the moment the French get through ani drie
of
the passes actually defended by the Asturian troops,.
, which will gtoduee, in the course of tito-br three;
days, a body of 80,000 men, independent of the
24,000 troops already armed with pikes and sabres.
Nothing can equal the activity observed by the Junta
in arming this province, and the inhabitants seem de-
cidedly determined to make a bold defence. The
Junta is now fitting out the schooner Conception, for
London."

FROM THE OVIEDO GAZETTE, OF THE 4th INST.

Major-General Don FRANCISCO BALLESTEROS, from
his head-quarters, Villanueva, under date the 29th
ult. communicates, that two Officers had presented
themselves there (Don FELIPE LESSE and Don loNocto
GEROLA, both of the regiment of Navarre), who, be-
ing examined on their word of honour, have declared
as follows that on the 29th ult. they were made pri-
soners of war in the battle of Mansilla de los Mu-
las, by the vanguard of the French army, com-
manded by Marshal Souvr ; that in a eonversa-
tion en the road, they learnt from French Officers
that conducted them to Burgos, the defeat of the
French Dragoons by the English Cavalry at 8e.:..-
vente ; and in that City they learnt that the rest of the
dragoons which they saw there, were wounded and
thrown into disorder ; that in Pancorvo they saw the
French Emperor pass oil his road to France; and the
report ran through his army of a decla: ation of war
by Russia and Austria against France, adding, that
this rupture was the cause of his precipitate return,
and that of the evacuation of the whole peninsula,
which they also observed by this flight ; and lastly,
they were certain, from the direction of the army,
that they would be compelled to join the army claw
Ncrth, which obliged them to desert, and fortunate-
ly were able to accomplish it, which is all they could
say to different questions put to them.
By an official dispatch of the 29th ultimo, received
from the Representative commissioned from this Su-
preme Junta, Don RAMON de LLANO POSTE, we
learn, that the division of Mandonedo has armed its
inhabitants against the French, pursuing ancLcuttiug
them up, and that the inhabitants had intercepted
some, and destroyed others of them, taking, at the
same time, some important dispatches. In the town
of Villaba, the inhabitants repulsed a party of the
enemy that attempted to enter it ; and In- order -to
support this valiant determination, we have giVen
them all the succour that was in our power.
By accounts received from a person just arrived
from San Andero, and who, from his situation in
life is entitled to credit, we learn that the inhabitants
of Trasmiera have taken up arms, which accounts
for the departure of the American vessel, a prize to
a French privateer from Santona : they were' ssisted
by some soldiers of the army of RoSIANA, who main-
tained themselves in that quarter. From San Andero
the enemy detached two parties, who were both re-
pu hoed, one of them to seven leagues from Santona,
killing a great many, and taking other prisoners; two
hundred men were also sent from Unquera, but met
with the same fate ; and at San Andero, whet" at
present not more than twenty remained, from IS to
20 carts arrived daily, with sick acid wounded be.
longing to the division of Boum
It is also said here, that the French have been re-
pulsed in three different assaults made on Saragossa
with great slaughter, and aceording to a letter taken
trims It Frenchman, resident at Valladoli,d, the Est-
reaoa has ordered that the siege of chit city should
be abandoned. •
By a letter from Bandana, of the 19th November,
we learn that on the 16th of the said month, 40,000
miquelettes presented themselves within cannon-shot
of Barcelona, and that at the same time the .Eng-
lish bombarded the Mole and the Citadel, in order
to draw the attention of the garrison of Mcmjni.
—At day-break on the following day, under ceoverof
a great fog, the miquelettes commenced the assault on
the citadel. The troops from Monjui immediately
came down to its assistance, leaving but a few men to
garrison it. By these -means General REDING was
able to assault Monjui without the loss of a man, and
in the assault of the citadel we had 400 killed, and
1000 wounded ; but both places were taken.
SUPPLEMENT TO THE GAZETTE OF THE 4th.
By a dispatch 'list received from Don RAMON DE
LLANO PONTE, of the 2d instant, we learn that our
troops, commanded by Lieutenant-General Josef/.
Vourrichr the Commandant of the 2d of Cataluna
Orozco, and the General PONTE, entered the town
of Rivadeo, driving the enemy out of it with the loss
of six killed, a great number wounded, 'and six pri-
.3lleri.
