FXSRACT OF A LETTER FROM AN 6F1'.11611 1N T:l6

.BEITISII ARMY, DATED ANTWERP, APRIL '2O.
66 The Duke of Wat.triarom formally assumed
the command of the Grand Belgian Army on the
11th. The advanced corps of the Russians are ex.
pected on the 15th of M.iy on the Rhine, and it is

the general opinion in the army, that until the Cos-
sacks come up in a considerable body, no grand
movement in advance will be mode. Great reliance

is, of course, laid en the impression mule by these
Gentlemen in France llst year.

“ The B: itish force in Bclgium does not at present
exceed 3250 cavalry, :?0,100 infantry, and 2500 artil-
lery. Tne Gelman and 1-I moverian troops in our
pay, all of whom are brave and ttust.worthy to a
proverb, amount to 3600 cavalry, 11,500 infantry :
total amount, 6350 cavalry, 37,400 infantry and ar-
tillery. Besides these, the Dutzli troops, who are in
a high state of discipline, and who are animated with
a proper degree of hatred Against the French, what-
ever may be s lid to the contrary, are 10,000 in num-
ber, and the Belgians 'amount to 10,000 more.
•4 All these united forces occupy a line of frontier
posts running from Ostend through Fumes, Roes-
brugg, Poperhinge, Ypres, Messine, Menin, Cour-
tray, Tournay, Atli, and Mons. Brussels, Ghent,
and Antwerp form our rear support, and contain our
depots and reserves. On the lett we are flanked by
80,000 Prussians, whose head-quarters are at Liege
and Namur.

41 The advance cavalry patroles daily see those of
the enemy, and they have already had an engage.
ment. The Germans behaved nobly, and cut down
a few of the Vive Napoleon gentry :ant phrase. Ant-
werp is the head-quarters of th.i 7th division of the
army : it consists of the 25th, 37th, and 81st regi-
ments, besides 5000 Hanovtrians."
The surviving Officers of the Second Brttalion
59th Regiment, who were, present at the storming
San Sebastian, have lately presented Captain FULLER,
of that regiment, a valuable Sword, in testirthiny of •
the hi .1i opinion they entertain of his pliant con-
duct on that occasion, wbefilw succeeded to the com-
mand of the regiment almOst immediately on their
quitting the trenches, and maintained it in tinc most
distinguished manner during the whole of the assault,
and until the next morning, uhen he was I elii-ved by
Major (now Lieutenant-Colonel) Horaill. who had
just arrived from England. -Captain
commanding the regimait ani setting a most bril-
liant example to those under him, . escaped unhurt.
The 59th Regiment lost 'A/ officers And 338 rank and
file during the assault. Ca pt:iin Ftn.Ltit has since been
twice wounded, but is sufficiently recovered to accom-
pany his (the Grenadier) company on service, tor
which they are now under orders.
Tile letters from Antwerp mention that the garri-
son of that city was no longer to be composed
British troops, their services being requirod on the
more ac:ive theatre of the war ; and notice bad been
given that 12,000 Hanoverians were aiproaching
that fortress, to whose gallantry its protection was to
be confided.
