" They write from Seville, of the date October 31,
that General Godinot, with a part of his division, en-
tered Seville from the camp at San Roque, which
General, after having had a conference with Soult,
killed himself the same night ; that on the 29th, ano-
ther General, whose name is not known, but who also
arrived at Seville, died in consequence of his wounds ;
that Soult, on the 2d instant, set out for Estremadura,
and passed the night at Constantino, whence he
had sent off a part of his baggage and some detach-
ments of the regiment of infantry No. 103 ; that the
force with Suult consists of th_e regiments of infantry,
Nos. 12, 22, 103, the 4th Polish, and from 200 to 300
dragoons and hussars of different regiments, amount-
ing in the whole to 4500 men ; thata was said in the
villages in the neighbourhood of Seville, and in those
on the road, there were more troops which had the
same destination ; that the said troops from Seville
had begun their march on the Ist instant ; that
Godinot, having been joined by three thousand
men from the corps of General Victor, had attempted
an attack on General Ballesteros, who had retired
under the artillery tf Gibraltar ; and Godinot, per-
ceiving that he could gain no advantage, and the
French soldiers having had nothing to eat but biscuit
for eight days, began to retreat, while Ballesteros
harrassed his rear-guard, and caused the regiment
No, 55,• to lose not less than 300 men in killed,
wounded, and prisoners, which produced a strong re-
prehension from Soult, and the consequent suicide of
Godinot.

,d P. S. On the 3d inst. at eleven in the morning,
1000 infantry and 200 horse from the vs of Drouet,
entered Merida.

" It is said that Girard passed the Tagus in
boats from Talaban, in order to join the 6th division
c,f Marmont, commanded by Briene, which occupied
Placentia and its vicinity, but that in bis passage he
was attacked by the parties of Chaleco and Cuesta,
and suffered considerable loss."

" LISBON, NOVEMBER 18.

a On the 30th ult. General Boner, the new Governor
of Ciudad Rodrigo, set out from Salamanca, and in
the night arrived at his place of destination, escorted
by a division of infantry and 600 cavalry, drawn from
their cantonments upon the Upper Tonnes ;—lie
brought with him a considerable number of sheep.
Durindg these last three days, the prisoners taken
by the division of his Excellency General Hill, in the
glorious action in which he annihilated Gen. Girard%
division, have continually arrived. On the ISth and
14th a number of boats,
,with many of the said pri-
soners, arrived and landed them at the Royal Marine
Arsenal, and yesterday were disembarked from S to
400 in Caes dos Columnas, besides officers, who were
conducted separately.
" It is said that General Girard, in his flight, was
thrown from his horse, and is expected to die; some
people attribute his fall to the effect of weakness, oc-
casioned by the wounds he received in the action."

The Lisbon Papers to the 10th, and Cadiz Gazettes
to the 18th, received yesterday, contain the dispatch
of the Spanish General GIRON, relative to General
HILL'S victory, which w?have given at full length.
He justly pays the highest compliments to General
Hua., and mentions among the enemy who were
killed in the field of battle, General DoMBKowsKY
and 20 other Officers.

We learn by the CANOPUS, which is arrived from
the Straits, that the Mediterranean Fleet, commanded
by Sir Envinan PELLEW, is gone to Minorca to re-
victual. 'rte CANOPUS left Cadiz on the 18th ult.
and brought dispatches from thence and from Sir
EDWARD PELLzw, which have arrived M town.

SS MAJESTY continues in the same state.
THE PRINCE REGENT.—We have great pleasure in
saying that his Royal Highness's foot is daily acquir-
ing strength and getting better.
Yesterday morning the Princess CHARLOTTE of
WALE.., accompanied by Lady Da CLIFFORD, went
to Oatlands, on a visit to the PRINCE REGENT, and
after taking an early dinner with her Royal Father
and the Duchess of YORK, in his own apartments,
her Royal Highness returned to Warwick-house.
