Letters from Gibraltar of the Sd instant, from Ca.
diz of the 4th, and from Madrid of the 10th, contain
the following details:
General Freyre has stationed 4,000 men at Port
St. Mary ; General Cruz occupies Chiclana, having
under his orders a division of 5,000 men; the cavalry
are united at Port Real.
A division of the Insurgents, 2,000 strong, com-
manded by Riego, issued from St. Ferdinand to pro-
ceed towards Tarifa, and General O'Donnel is in
pursuit of them. The fort of Tarifa was very strong
before the last war, but there is no longer, any trace
of fortifications. The rebels have transferred to the
arsenal of Caracca the superior Officers whom they
had arrested at the moment of theiirevolt. •
General Campana, Commandant of the, garrison
of Cadiz, proceeded on the 3d beyond the Corte-
Dora, with a column of 3000 men,. to notify to the
Insurgents the amnesty which the King offers them.
The Chief of the Insurgents required three days to
give his answer.
By a postscript to a letter from Cadiz, of tht 4th
instant, it is announced, that at that time the troops
of Corta-Duna marched upon the fort of Torre-Gorda
(the extremity of the causeway of Cadiz, on the side
of the Isla).
There has been taken from the Insurgents, in the
Bay of Puntales, an armed sicop, which guarded
the causeway. •
Colonel Santiago, who was at the head of the
tumult in Cadiz on the 24th ultimo, has succeeded
in joining the Insurgents.
