cc We are informed that Regnier, with a consider-
able force, has erosssd the Tagus, near Alcantara, to
:proceed to the southward. His motions are watched
the brigade under General Hill, and the Spanish
army under Marquis Romana. The head quarters
have been removed to Gouvea, but the cavalry under
General Cotton still remain at Celerico.
" The Portuguese army under Marshal Beresford
has recovered from the impression made by the fall
of Almeida. They, as well as the British troops, are
in high health and spirits ; while the French are COM-
pelle4 to suffer every deprivation, and in every respect
are in a miserable condition."
