CORDOVA, NOVEMBER SI

Our army of La Mancha is advancing against the
enemy without meeting with any opposition ; the ad-
vanced parties are already in Damiel. Extraordinary
movements are already observed in the French army;
and every thing seems to announce, that we are on
the eve of Important events.

TRUXILL.O, NOVEMBER 9.
A Courier, who yesterday passed through this
place from La Mancha, brought intelligence that the
head-quarters of the army of that province have been
transferred to Damiel, where they still were on the
above day.

INVIRONS OF GEROSA, OCTOBER 22.
We are fighting at all points. Hitherto complete
success has attended our efforts, and we hope it will
continue. The French have been completely defeat-
ed, and a great number of Poles and Neapolitans
have deserted over to our banners.
VICH, OCTOBER 24.
The day before yesterday arrived in this city 80
French prisoners, taken in the late actions which took
place in Junqueira, in which our arzned.peasants, un-
der the command of Claros and R9vina, kehared

An Expedition is intended to be immediately sent
off for the capture of the Isle of France.—This island
ought to have been taken possession of long ago. It
has always been a harbour for the enemy's privateers
in the Indian seas.

Since our last a Lisbon Mail has arrived, which
brings Spanish Papers and letters to the 16th ult. and
Portuguese to the 21st ult.

The retreat of the Duke del PARQUE from Sala-
manca is confirmed. The French, aware of the great
danger of the occupation of Salamanca, detached a
considerable force to the support of General MAR..
CHAN% against which the Duke most prudently de-
clined to try his strength. He left Salamanca on the
sth ult. and fell back to a strong position in the moun-
tains to the southward of Cuidad Rodrigo.

King JOSEPH, it appears, has proceeded to Valla-
dolid, and Generals JOURDAN and NEY are stated to
have set out for France, in all probability for the pur-
pose of communicating to the French EMPRROA the
most authentic information on the state of affairs in
Spain. In an article under the head of Cadiz, Nov.
lith, it is stated as a conjecture, that the enemy in-
tended to collect a considerable force in Valladolid to
interrupt the progress of the Duke del Pa RQUE.
Some interesting particulars are given under the head
of Malaga, October 31st, respecting the defence of Ge-
rona, which still continued to hold out with unabated
confidence and vigour.
Lord WELLINGTON returned to Badajos on the
12th ; but we hear of no preparations for the advance
of the British, or Army of the Centre.

We have also received French papers to the 2341
ult. The Moniker of the 20th contains an account
of the defeat of General BLAKE on the Ist of Novem-
ber. The number of troops engaged does not appear
to have been very considerable ; but we fear the re-
sult of the engagement will tend to acid to the hard..
ships of the garrison of Germs.

By an article from Munich of the 7th Novetaer,

blockaded. Captain BALLARD, in the BJ.OSDE

Three French prisoners are now confined in Ply-
mouth-Dock prison, charged with forging the local
and Bank-of-England notes, on board the Genereux
prison-ship in Hamoaze ; one of them has turned
evidence against the others. The ingenuity of these
snen is truly astonishing. The notes are 5o well excc
cuted as not to be distinguished from good ones ex-
cept on a very close esammation. They had rubbed
a penny-psece down to a smooth surface, and on that
cut the government stamp for the local notes. The
Solicitor of the Bank has been to Plymouth to wit.
