CORUNNA, JULY 17.

Erigadier General Don J. D. Porlier has trans-
mitted the following Report to the Superior Junta of
Galicia, dated Santona, the 6th instant :
• MosT EXCELLENT SlR—After having sailed from
Rebadeo in the five frigates, commanded by Commo-
dore R. Mons, it was the first object of my intention
to effect a landing, agreeably to the plan which I
pointed out to your Excellency, through my Adju-
tant-General,
.Don Angel Vallego, but as circum-
stances afforded us an opportunity of reaching San-
tuna, the landing was made in this port, where my
troops, as well as the English who were on board the
frigates, disembarked, to take the garrison of this
place, consisting of 120 men, 20 of whom were ca-
valry. I really succeeded in beating them, with the
loss of four killed, and 27 taken prisoners ; thirty
escaped to Laredo, and the rest were dispersed, and
are surrounded by our light parties.
66 The following day, I detached the Chasseurs of
Cantabria and the ist Cantabrian Regiment, amount-
ing in the whole to 400 men, on the road to St. An-
der ; and finding in Galezana 250 French, who came
from the said town, they defeated them, with the loss
of three killed, many wounded, and 19 taken priso-
ners ; 13 horses were also taken, and 50 small barges,
with an American ship.

44 Several parties which are in this neighbourhood
are joining me, and I shall soon have a sufficient force
to rout the enemy, and liberate the inhabitants from
the yoke of the tyrant who oppressed them.
44 I flail continue to inform your Excellency of the
occurrences which take place ; and, in the mean time,
have the honour to salute you with the most pro-
found respect.—Gon preserve," &c.

JULY 23.—Yesterday landed in this portiPthe 600
man commanded by Brigadier General Porlier, and
300 peasants of Biscay, who entreated that he might
take them with him, and whose numbers would have
been much greater but from want of shipping, be-
cause they were all, without distinction of age or
class, anxious to be liberated from the dominion of
the tyrant. Porlier did not suffer any losses, bscause
the English being apprehensive of the enemy receiv-
ing reinforcements, and fearful, kst they should lose
their artillery, determined to embark, but he intends
soon to renew the enterprize. Four landings were
effected at different points of the coast, all the bat-
teries of the French were destroyed, the Spaniards
whom they kept imprisoned were set at liberty.
—The forts were levelled with the ground, and more
than 100 pieces of cannon and great quantities of am-
munition thrown into the sea. Upwards of '2OO psi-
sonars have been sent to England, five vessels loaded
with iron to Rebadeo, and to this place (Corunna)
an American ship and several prisonc:s. It is a mat.
ter of astonishment that our whole loss consists of
only three wounded.
It k said that 3000 men, commanded by a partisan
of the name of Lorga, w..Te in Orclma, expecting
orders from Porlier, which it was found impossible to
communicate to Itim.
The celebrated Cuevellas has taken from the French.
General Avral, the military chest and SOO men, and
compelled him to a shameful flight.

Tn another part of our Paper we have given an im-
portnnt document, explanatory of the line of policy to
be adopted by o►►r Government, with respect to the
Spanish Colonies. It is a copy of a Dispatch, trans.
witted from this country to the Governor of Curaccra,
in consequence of the late declaration of the indepen-
dence in the Caraccas. The British Government con.
siders itself pledged to maintain the integrity of the
Spanish Monarchy and possessions, so long as Old
Spain continues to make a stand against the common
enemy ; and it is only in the event of the Trench being
completely successful in subjugating the mother coun-
try, that Great Britain promises to ::ountenance the
Colonies in erecting an independent Government.
At the same time, our Ministers wisely disclaim all
views of aggrandisement at the expence of the Spa-
nish Settlements.

The French Tribunals have lately determined, that
the marriage of a French prisoner of war with a Bri-
tish woman in this country is not valid. Several
women, who accompanied or followed their supposed
husbands to France, have been consequently aban-
doned and esposed to the greatest distress.

losses it hits sustained in that climate. The
thus increased to about 900 men, is °steatite
highest disciplined and finest corps in the Weit !o-
ldies. The depot of this regiment, which has forsome
time past been stationed at Ottery, in Devonshire,
under the command of Capt. Gomm:men, consisting
of between 5 and 600 uncommon fine yount,,, men, is
Ito be immediately incorporated into the 241 battalion,
which, with the addition of the volunteers from the
Irish Militia, who are flocking to their national corps,
will amount in a short time to 1000. It is expected,
the moment these reinforcements arrive, that thishat-
talion will proceed to join Lord WIMLINGTON'S artily.
That distinguished regiment, the 50th, comman-
ded by Colonel CHARLES STEWART, if, we understand,
to be marched to Shorncliffe Barracks, near Hythe,
if they are not considered sufficiently recovered from
the effects of the Walcheren fever to be embarked.--
Shorncliffe is one of the healthiest barracks in the
kingdom. The 2d battalion of the 52d regiment
are there at present, and have benefited very much
from the air.

The Stirlingshire Militia left Margate on Saturday,
for Ramsgate.

The South Gloucester Militia were relieved from
c'uty on Monday evening, at Brighton, and are suc-
ceeded by the Sussex Local Militia. The Serjeant-
Major, lately reduced to the ranks, by a Court-Mar-
tial, has been permitted, to retire.

Conowea's Iwuutsr.—We stated a few days Since
that a Captain HANTS W 45 wounded in a duel on
Mousley Hurst, with Mr. CoLasuAu., a4ew days ago,
:uul that he was considered in a dangerous state. The
above Gentleman died of his wound, which was in the
left chest, on Sundaylast, having previously been remo-
ved Co London. The ball was extracted the day after
the duel. There was no evidence before the Jtfry as
to Mr. COLESNALL. It was merely stated, that four
Gentlemen alighted from chaises on the Heath, ac-
companied by another on horseback, and that two
fires were exchanged when the deceased tell, and he
was put into a chaise and driven off. The Jury de-
livered a verd:ct of wilful murder against some person
or persons unknown.

All the letters and packets !nought by the late fleet
from India have been delivered. None have been re-
ceived from Madras ; the Sarah Christiana and Wil-
liam Pitt, which were under dispatch at that Presi-
dency, and which were expected CO sail in time to ac-
company the ships from Calcutta and Bombay to
Europe, did not join convoy at the appointed place.
Their arrival, however, is daily expected.

We are kappy to hear that the attention of the Go-
vernment of Bombay has, at length, been attracted
to the preservation of the noble rem.tins of Oriental
art and antiquity, in the celebrated caves of Elephan-
ta. The dilapidations of the images, throu'rk the
wantonness of individuals, have of late been s'grt...:
that no person is now admitted without an 0r,1,4. from
the Supertillendant of Marine and Town Major of
Bombay, to whose care these caves have been com-
mitted.

Mr. Salt, formerly Secretary to Lord Vilentia, and
now charged with a mission from the Brit: it Govern-
ment to the King of Abyssinia, had arrived at Aden,
an island at the entrance of the Red Sea, in Novem-
ber last, and was preparing for his departure to an
Abyssinian port.
Some hundred huts were, on the 17th of February,
destroyed at Calcutta by accidental fire : a grove of
cocoa-nut trees caught the blaze, and presented a
singular and picturesque spectacle. Notwithstanding
the flames were so rapid and evens' ve,Pnly two lives
were lost—those of a Portuguese woman, and an in-
fant at her breast.

The 67th regiment had been removed from Dena-
pore to Bemires, but was expected to resume its for-
mer quarters during the month of April.
The Manilla market was, at the date of the last ad.
vices, so overstocked with piece goods and other ar-
tides of Indian produce, that few sales were effected
without loss. An extra ship was to be dispatched to
Acapulco in February, which it was hoped would re-
lieve the market ; one thousand pieces of Europe
chintz had been sold so low as fiveisixteenths of a
dollar per yard.
The cold in the upper provinces of India, in the
early part of the present year, was more severe than
ever before known. In the neighbourhood of Mut-
tra, most of the indigo weed, and all the cotton plants,
which survived the first rigours of the season, were
destroyed by the frosts in January.
Accounts from Prince of Wales Island to the be-
ginning of this year mention, that Sir EDMUND STAN.
LEY was unrem►ttingly employed in establishing all
the Jurisdictions and Courts under the Charter ; and
in endeavours to reform the depraved 'and immoral
state of society in that island.
A severe shock of an earthquake was experienced
at Manilla, on the night of the 15th of Sept. last.
During a late overflow of the Ganges, near Hund-
war, three fakeers, who came for the purpose of per-
forming their ablutions, were washed away and
drowned—a circumstance considered by their bre.
thren as an especial mark of Divixe favour, and ce-
lebrated accordingly.
It is mentioned in the Penang Gazette, of the 17th
February, that a dreadful conflagration broke out at
Rangoon, in an arrack shop, which destroyed nearly
7000 houses (mostly of wood) leaving only six buil-
dings standing in the town. Several persons lost
their lives.

CIIEROICEES...w.A survey has been very recently taken
of this nation, by which it appears that there are
12,395 Indians, of which the females exceed the males,
/200. The whites in the nation are 341, about one-
third of whom have Indian wives. There arc also
841 negro slaves, 19,500 head of cattle, 6100 horses,
19,600 hogs, 1037 sheep; they have in active employ
13 grist mills, 3 saw mills, 3 saltpetre works, and 1
powder-mill, 30 waggons, 500p1oughs , 1600 spinni ag.
-wheels, and 467 looms. These advantages have been
mostly obtained since 1796, and have rapidly increas-
ed since 1803.—0 n their roads they have many pub-
lic-housts, and convenient ferries on their rivers.

In the Spanish Papers received yesterday
Mail from Cadiz,* transtAtiun appears of the
of which we insert a copy :

_........,-tir.riERAL LATARD.
• Dowiliausireet,
Slit—Your dispatch. with its enclosures,
received and laid before the King.
1 am commanded by his Majesty to express
Cobation of your conduct In sending your '
amp, Captain KAlly,..ro dths country, with
ligence of the events which have recently
the province of Venezuela.
I think it of the utmost importance that
Kelly should return with as little delay as •
Curacoa, and that you should be apprised ,
of conduct which, under the circumstances
your letter, it is his Majesty's pleasure that •
pursue in his name.
the great object which his Majesty
} mew from the first moment when intelligence
I ceived in this country of the glnriciles resistance
ISpanish nation, against the tyranny and
of France
the great , was to assist by every means in
i ellNirts of a breve, loyal, and hi
i people, and to secure, if possible, the indepen,
the Spanish Monarchy in all parts of the -,
As long as the Spanish nation ivasevere
resistance to their invaders. and as an;
hope can be entertained of ultimate success
1 cause in Spain, his Majesty feels it to be .
1 cording to every obligation of justice and
to discourage any proceeding which may
effect of separating the Spanish provinces in
from the parent state in Europe ; the ,
the Spanish Monarchy upon principle* of
true policy, being not less the object of
than of all loyal and patriotic Spaniards.
If, however, contrary to his Majesty'!
ous wishes, and as he still continues to

founded expectations, the Spanish dominions
rope shall be doomed to submit to the
common enemy, either in consequence of
or of any compromise which may leave to
the semblance of independence, an even(
Majesty, relying on the tried energy and patriotim of
the Spanish people, can in no degree consider as re-.
bable, his Majesty will feel himselt bound by the same
principles which have influenced his conduct for the
last two years in the cause of the Spanish nation, to
afford every assistance to the provinces in America,
which may render them independent of French Spain,
may afford a place of refuge to those Spaniards, oho,
in disdaining to submit to their oppressors, may look
to America as to their natural asylum, and may pre-
serve the remains of the Monarchy for their unfortunate
Sovereign, if it shall ever be his lot, underiuch cir.
cumstances, to recover his liberty ; his lejesty in
thus explicitly declaring the motives and principles of
his conduct, disclaims every view of territury or ac-
quisition for himself.
His Majesty observes with satisfaction from the
papers which have been transmitted to him, that the
proceedings in the Caraccas appear in a great mea.
sure to have originated in a belief, that in conse-
quence of the progress of the French arm;es in the
South of Spain, and the dissolution of the Supreme
C.... I.re of the parent state had become ,les-
pci.ee. He truat..i, therefore, that as soon as the .c-
-tual state of things shall have been correctly knots n in
that quarter, the general acknowledgment throughout
Spain of the Regency. and the unremitted exertions
of the Spaniards in defence Of their country under
that authority, the inhabitants of the Caraccas will be
induced to return to their connection with Spain as
an integral p.ut of the Spanish Monarchy.
His Majesty is led more particularly to entertain
this expectation, from the consideration that the Re-
gency now established at Cadiz appears to have adop-
ted the same wise and generous principles, with re-
spect to the provinces in America, as were previously
.adopted by the Supreme Junta, in establishing the
connection between every part of the Spanish Mo-
narchy, upon the most liberal footing, in regarding
the American province t as integral parts of the em-
pire, and in admitting them in consequence to a place
in the Cortes of the kingdom.
His Majesty feels confident that the same generous
and enlightened policy which has dictated these mea-
sures, will induce the Government of Spain to regu-
late the intercourse of the American provinces with
other parts of the world, upon such a basis as will
contribute to the growing prosperity, and at the same
time augment all the advantages which the parent
state may justly expect to derive from them.
His Majesty trusts that this exposition of his senti.,
ments will enable you, without difficulty, to regulate
your conduct in any intercourse you may find it ne-
cessary to have with the contiguous Spanish pro-
vinces in South America ; and as his Majesty has
directed that a copy of this letter should be commu-
nicated to the Government of Spain, he can have no
objection to your making any use of the avowal of
these his sentiments which circumstances may appear
to you to require.

On Friday noon last, a balloon, 33 feet high, and
4.5 in circumference, was I.4unched from the Park
of B. HOWARD, Esq. at Farnham St. Genevieve,
Suffolk, which ascended in very fine style to the
great satisfaction of a numerous company ; and after
continuing in the air for about half' an hour, safely
descended near the Telegraph at lcklingham, being
a distance of more than six miles.
On Monday last was played at. Royston the return
match of Cricket, between the Cambridge and Royston
Cricketers, for 100 guineas, which was won by the
former, leaving four wickets to go down.
Considerable retrenchments are made in the Covent
Garden establishment this season. There are five in.
struments short of the former number in the band, and
the same principle of teconomy into prevail throughout. •

be for French consumption, and expected to be re-
