WAR DEPARTMENT.

DOWNING-STREE'r, SEPTEMBER 12.
Letters, of which the following are extracts, have been received
bt Earl Bathurst from Colonel Sir Howard Douglas, dated
Csatrorontsigo, 22d, and Asters', 29th August.

Cistrurvettigo, August 22. 1812.
When the Earl of Wellington transferred his head.
Tuners from Mojados to Cuellar, the Gallician di.
visions, then occupying La Nava and Folios, crossed
the Douro again, and General. Santocildtis esta-
blished his - head.quarters in Valladolid. On the
7th instant Tordesillas .capitulated, and the siege
of Toro was undertaken, but with means very in.
sufficient.

On the 12th the enemy advanced, with about
7,0(X) infantry, and 1,500 cavalry, from Palencia
towards Valladolid, which was only occupied by
one battalion. General Santocildes retired, taking
the road by Torrelobaton towards Villalpando.—.
The enemy now advanced towards Toro ; and it
was ascertained that their objects were to relieve
Toro and Zamora, and then to march to Astorga,
to raise the siege, and, having withdrawn the garri-
son, to destroy the works.
The Spanish troops were withdrawn from before
Toro, which the enemy immediately abandoned ;
and General Santocildes, having collected all his
force at Belver, on the Rio Seco, commenced his
retreat on Benevente, near which place the enemy's
cavalry came up with that cf the 6th army (about
4.00), and in the affair which followed we sustained
some loss.
On the 19th instant Astorga surrendered, when
the enemy had already reached La Baneza, from
which place they have since retired, on hearing of
the loss ofthat garrison, which was of such import-
ance as.to lead them into these operations. I have
no doubt, from the direction they have taken, that
they will now withdraw the garrison of Zamora,
and smartly abandon the line of the Douro.
Astorga was commanded by a General of Bri-
gade, was defended by a Lieutenant-Colonel of en.
gineers, and the garrison was ctanposed of two bat-
talions of the 23d, and one of the Ist infantry of
the line—in all 1,200, effectives a 4 the time of the
surrender. . .
Astorga, August 25, 1812.
The enemy retired from La Baneza on hearing
of the fall, of Astorga, and took the direction of
Zamora ; they • evacuated the tatter place on the
morning of the 27th, retiring by Tom towards
Valladolid.
The Gallician army has again moved forward and
now occupies cantonments on the Esla, in the towns
and villages neat Villamanan.

beaten. of which the following are extracts, have been received
by Earl Radium from Lieutenant-Colonel William Parker
Carrel, dated Zornoza, 24th August, and oft Visetnialette,
98th August.
Zornoza, Aug* t 4, 1812.
nave the honour to acquaint you, that, on the
13th instant, General Rouget, with a force of nearly
3000 men, advanced from Derango to attack Bit-
boa. General Renovates took up a position on the
left bank of the river, having his right on the heights
of Bolueta and 011argan, defending the new bridge
of Bolueta his reserve at Castrejana. As soon as
the enmity's force was ascertained, General Reno•
vales formed his plan of attack k part of the van-
guard and Campillo's regiment were to pass the river
at Portugalette, and proceed to the heights of Santo,
Domingo, to attack the enemy's right at day-break
on the 14th, whilst General Pottier, with the van-
guard, attacked the enemy who were in possession of
ae two bridges in the town, and the troops at the
bridge of Bolueta and the heights of 011argan were
to attack the enemy's left, which was strongly posted
Op the heights of Begone and el Morro.

- attack commenced with great vigour, and, afttr a
lim fire of four hours, the enemy was drivels from
the by ridges of the town, and from the heights of
Degonaind Morro ; and at nine o'clock, they com-
menced a precipitate retreat towards Zornnza, pur-
sued by General Renovales's division, and the van-
guard, headed by Porlier: had the troops which
were to have attacked the enemy's right, arrived at
the appointed time, the victory would hare been
most complete, and probably General Rouget, with
the greater part of his troops, would have been cut
off from Durango. Their loss on this occasion far
exceeded ours, which was 20 killed and 50 wounded.
It was highly gratifyint to see the steadiness of the
newly-raised troops of General Reeovales's division.
Too much praise cannot be bestowed on their Chief,
in s whom they place the greatest confidence, a9d who
is indefatigable in his exertions to complete and or-
ganise his division.
Since the 15th we occupied Galdacano and Zor-
noza, our advance close to Durango, which point
the enemy have strengthened, having two guns on
the bridge of Yuretta, and occupying several houses
in the town : they have also an encampment on their
left of the town, on the heights of Santa Lucia and
Betuno.

On the night, of the 20th, we received intelli-
gence that the enemy were moving to attack us, and
that a column had marched to Orduna, the high
road from which to Bilboa joins the road from Zor-
noza to Bilboa, about a mile from the latter town.
General Mendizabal determined to fall back and wait
the enemy on the left bank of the river, in nearly
the same position a; that occupied by General Reno-
va4es on the 14th inst.
On the night of the 21st the enemy advanced from
Durango, in three columns, two by Zornoza, the
other by Valero, with a view of possessing them.
selves of the heights that led from Arrigorriaga, and
flanked those of Bolueta, which was the right and the
key of our position. Renovales's division occupied
from the heights of Bolueta to these of Oiaviaga,
which supported our left, covering the bi idges of St.
Anton, the wooden bridge, and the bridge of boats.:
At day-break on the morning of the 22d, General
Mendizabal with part of the vanguard, proceeded to
attack this column, directing that the division of
Iberia should meet us at Arrigorriaga. Dispositions
were made, which seemed to ensure the destruction
, of this column. The enemy, on finding that we were
jn possession of the bridge of Arrigorriaga and roads
leading to Bilboa, changed their direction, and by a
most rapid march, favoured by the thickness of the
woods, effected their junction with the second co.
Warn, which was destined to make a simultaneous I
attack upon the bridge of Bolueta. General Mendi,
zabal, with the vanguard, and Longa's division, at.'
rived in time to resist the enemy's attack ; their prin-
cipal efforts were to force the bridge of Bolueta, which
was defended in the most gallant manner ; the enemy
suffering ctmsiderable loss- without being abte to gain
a foot of ground; their efforts on the lieft.of our line
proved equally unsuccessful.
General Renovales at the head of his brave misarit
soldiers met their attack at every point : the enemy
attempted in vain to force the two bridges of the
town, and that of boats ; night coming on the enemy
retired to his position on the heights of St. Domingo
el Morro and Begona. Arrangements were made
for a combined attack upon the enemy's position, but
finding that he had, upon being attacked by Reno-
vales, who crossed the river in front of the heights of
Banderas, early in the night, commenced his retreat,,
no time Was lost in puriuing him, and notwithstand-
ing the great advantage he had in point of time, from
the rapidity with which the division of Iberia marched
we came up wi.h him near the town of Zornoza, and
attacked his rear with such vigour, that his retreat
became a confused and disorderly flight ; insomuch
that they did not avail themselves, as they might
have done, of several strong positions which the road
from 'Zornoza to Durango presents. At one of the
strongest of these positions they made an effort to
stand, but the gallantry of the Commandant-General 1
Longa, who at the head of his troops led the attack,
animating them by his example, who charged the
enemy with a few cavalry and a small body of in-
fantry. obliged him to abandon this position, and fly
for safety to the town of Durango.
The enemy's loss has been very considerable we
have taken some horses and prisoners. As yet I am
unable to give you a detail of this victory, as my
attention was occupied on our right, and in the put,.
suit of the enemy with the division of Iberia.
The General in Chief has not yet received the de-
tails from the commanders of divisions.
This victory has been highly creditable to the Spa-
nish army. The advantage which will result, and
the confidence it inspires in this newly.taised army will,
I have no doubt, produce the very best effects. The
enemy's force appears to have been from 5 to 6000.
We understand, from prisoners and deserters, that
Rouget, Duvernette, and anothe; General, lately
from France, commanded in this action.

I have the honour to acquaint your Lordship that
we have just reeived informaticm that Caffarelli, who
is much exasperated at the failure and defeat of Rou-
get, has marched a force of from 2500 to 5000 men
to Durango, to reinforce Rouget, and that they pur-
pose =slung another attack upon Bilboa.
I am returning to join General Mendizabal. T
troops are in the highest spirits.
