FROM THE SAME PAPER OF THE 5111 MAUCH.

On the 27th of February, in the vic.nity anti Om%
Marshal Soult was completely be.iteii, his army
dispersed, was retiring towards durdios, in di-
rection the Duke of Ciudad 12.1drigo, w*,
ing his having been wounded in the aim, as k:r. ►
General Alava, was pursuing him. We have not
received all the particulars of this brilliant victory ;
but it is stated that an English Gener :I was killed,
and two or three others wounded in it ; that the num-
ber of French killed exceeded 3000, with 900 priso-
ners, and that they besides lost eight pieces of artil-
lery. It appears that the division of Morillo, took a
brilliant part in this memorable day, and it is even
addeethat this valiant Captain lost a horse.

SUSS*EX ASSIZES.

HORSHAM, MONDAY, MARCH !3.

COLLYNS V. CAFE% N.
This was an action tor the breach of an agteeernent.
The defendant was lately a tailor and draper in the
town of Horsham, and being about to remove ce .
Brighton, he agreed to dispose (E his business to the
plaintiff, for a premium of £5O. and the plaint ff WAS
also to take all his stock at prime cost, for which he
Altered into an agreement that he would not tarry on
kusiness within ten miles of Horsham. He, how-
ever, although he moved his residence to Brighton,
solicited custom, and actually served many persons
in Horsham and; its neighbourhood.
Several witnesses having proved these facts, the
Jury found a verdict for plaintiff—Damages £5l
BULL V. ALLEN.
This was an action to recover the sun of fiftv-
seven potinds, f,r money advanced and pild for
Miss E. Allen, the defendan-, by the plaintiff.—
The plaintiff resided at Brighton, as did also Miss
Allen, the defendant, where she and her sister kept+a
boarding-school. The plaintiff had pid the sum in
question for goods bought at a sale, which the de.
tendant had had. The tact that the plaintiff had paid
the money was not Uisputed, nor that the defendant
had had the goods ; but it was insisted, for the de-
fendant, that Mr, Bull had made a present of them
to Miss Mary Allen, the sister of the defe-rdant. 'The
Miss Aliens were described to be the daughters of
the late Dr. Allen, a respectable physician, who bc;ng
left in rather narrow circumstances, were obliged to
keep a boarding•schnol, and being highly repected,
many most respectable characters had made them
presents. The plaintiff had a daughter at their school,
and being willing to serve them, bought the goods in
question, and gave them to Miss Mary Allen. To
prove this case, Mrs. Brookes, a married sister of the
Miss Aliens, stated, that the defendant, Elizabeth
Allen, had requested the plaintiff to take an acknow-
ledgment for the amount of the goods, hut that he re-
' fused, saying that he meant them a present f Mary.
' An old servant also stated, that when a part of
' them (a lot of crockery ware) came home, Mrs.
• Brookes was about to take some of them : the plain-
' tiff asked what she was going to do with it, as it was
' Mary's ? She said Mary had given it to hers he re-
' plied, he had given it to Mary, and she might du AS
she pleased with it.
The Jury found a verdict for the defendant.

Advices from St. Petersburgh to the 18th ult. state
that the two younger Brothers of the EMPICROK, the
Grand Dukes NICOLAI and MICUAEL, had taken their
departure from thence to join the Russian army.
