TRADES AND MANUFACTURES.

This day was published,
Handsomely printed in Quarto, the First Part, price 3i, and the
First Number, price ed. of a New Work, entitled
THE CIRCLE of the MECHANICAL ARTS,
or a DICTIONARY of PRACTICAL SCIENCE; be-
irg a Complete Guide to the Knowledge of the Manual Arts,
Trades, and Manufactures.
'THOMAS MARTIN, Gut Excanesa.
Assisted by Eminent Mechanics.
To the Public.—lt has been justly remarked by those who have
had occasion to consult the numerous treatises already published
on the mechanical arts and manufactures, that they are so defi-
cient in detail, or so involved in abstruse terns, as to render
them almost unintelligible, and therefore proportionately useless
to the generality of practical readers. The present work is
in-
tended to obviate the defects of former publications, by treating
of the different subjects in a plain, dear, and comprehensive
manner, suited to thVoses of the Practical Mechanic.
The ldiror has ois the co-operation of men of the most
eminent and'exptrience in every department of the undertaking;
and having hinuelf devoted a long and laborious life to mechani-
cal pursuits, be trusts that this work will form the most com-
plete body of practical information ever offered to the public.
The following are some of the loading subjects which the work
will embrace:

Architecture, House Carpentty, Joinery, Cabinet-making,
Masonry and Briek-laying, Painting and Glasing, Ptutnbery,
Practical Geometry, Mansarmioh Surveying, Comb, Bridges,
goads, Mach Mary,

WAR DEPARTMENT.
DOWNING a MEET, APRIL 2.
Viwatthee, of ;which the following are extracts, have been re-
cce.vcd from the Earl of W ELLIN otos:, addressed to the Earl
cf Ltesa root.:

Dna, March Is, Ult.
I moved the head-quarters from Mena& on the
Ith, and arrived here on the 11th instant.
hereare none of the enemy's troops in the field
an Estrernadura, excepting that part of the sth corps
gm se the.garrison of Badajoz, the brad-quarters of
tithich are at Villa Franca, and a detachment, con-
sisting of about a division, under General Darken,
whose head-quarters are at La Serena.
The enemy have made no movement, and I have
burdttfao operation of importance slate I,addressed
your Lordship last. According m the last accounts,.
blarsital boult was in the lines Delete Cadiz.
Curap bathe Badajoz, Marsh !S. I,
According to the intention which I announced th
your Lordshir, I broke up the canymments of the
army on the IStls and 16th invent, and invested Ba-
clajoz on the left of the river Guadiana, on the 16th.
vn.h tint 3,i, 4th. aid light divisions of infantry, and
with a brigade of Lieutenant-Genetal Hamilton's
division on the right. These troops are wider the
command of Mai sisal Sir Wm. Bneiford and Lieu-
-4,o6ant-Geneval Pietun. We broke ground on the
fdlowieg day, and have established a parallel within
yatds ci: the outwork called the Picurina, 'which
sesisreces the whole Ad the south east angle of the
fort. 'The we' k has contiaued ever since with gnat
celerity, nowidtstiutcling the Tog bad weather which
1V244.9 since ti)e 17th.
Ise enemy made a sortie yesterday fora theism

called 1,,a Trinidad, ca the right of out attack, with
about 2000 men. They were almost immediately
driven in without effecting any object, with coma-
derable loss, by Major-General whb com-
manded the guard in the trenches. We lost upon this
occasion a very promising officer, Captain Cuthbert,
Aid-de-Camp to Lieutenant-General Piston, killed;
and Lieut.-Colonel Fletcher was sliglidy wounded,
but I hope that be will soon be able to resume his
duties. 1 have not yet got the returns, but I believe
that our loss since the commencement of these opera-
tions, amounts to 120 men killed and wounded.

On the same day that Badajoz was invested,
tenant-General Sir Thomas Graham crossed the
Guadiana with the Ist, 6th, and 7th divisions of in-
fantry, and General Slade's and General Le Mar-
chant's brigades of cavalry, and directed his march '
upon Valverde and Santa Martha, and thence to.
wards Llerena ; while Lieutenant-General Sir Row.
land Hill, with the 2d and Lieutenant-General Ha-
milton's divisions, and Major-General Long's cavalry,
marched • from his cantonments near Albuquerque
upon Merida, and thence upon Almendralejo. Tkese
movements induced General Drouet to retire from
Villa Franca upon Hornachos, in order, I conclude,
to be in communication with General Darican's di-
vision, which was about La Serena.
I have heard from Sir Thomas Graham and Sir.
Rowland Hill to the 19th inst. The former was at
Los Santos and Zafra, with General Slade's cavalry
at Villa Franca • and the latter at Almendralejo.—.
Lieutenant-General Sir Rowland Hill took three offi-
cers and a few hussars prisoners in Merida.
I have reports from the neighbourhood of Ciudad
I Rodrigo t f the 17th inst. The enemy had sent.a
small detachment to Bejar, principally with a view
to plunder ; but there was no appearance of any im-
mediate movement. The 6th division had moved
from Talavera, through the Puerto del Pico, on the
Bth and 9th instant ; and the 4th division, on the
same days, from 1 oledo through the Guadarrama ;
and the first division only remained on the Tagus,
near Talavera.
