44 In England L imagine you have lately been all
wonder and surprise at the rapid advance of the
enemy, and the consequent retreat from Fuente Gui-
nada. With an idea of relieving Ciudad R3drir,
the enemy c.,rne down upon this town with an int-
mense fence ; and the advance of diont innumerable
cavalry was a tine, though an al inning sight. I
assure you, in this link affair, w if have bent
detailed yoo ere no .v, the 11th and 1211. Brni.h dra-
goons behaved with unparalleled bravery. totting
their way thr .ugh the enemy': immense force several
times. Fionre Guinalda stands oa an extensive
plain, and the convent of it, every movement
could be plainly seen. When the sup:nattily et the
enemy's force was accurately ascertained, t; hat a
saws f illou eJ ! The French were pr.ur;ng into nne
end of the place, and at the other the distressed
bitantswere flying away. What a scene of horror
• and confusion did the raids from Gitinaldo to Cas-
celles dos Flores, and from thence t't Allayates, pre-
sent ; women offering up intreaties to cur soldwts to
put their children in the prevision ears ; sick natives,
, crawling from their mis:rable abodes, fearful, for the
third time, of experiencing French prointiets the Bri-
tish and I'. rttigucie army crossing tie river, followed
by the heavy artillery, and some nattering train ;
6000 muses going off with the baggage; others
loving it behind to accelerate their flight ; our own
sick and wounded'receiving medical aid, while re-
treating over a rugged roai, almost impervi us ;
such were the scenes of a movement, for A retreat we
must not term it, as we are again in the carne
ditec-
tian. The enemy drove us from the front of, and
all around Ciudad Rodrigo, into which the French
successfully threw supplies : I think this wan the only
ohject they wished to accomplish. At ttlfayates,
Lord Watunieros, during the advance of the enemy
upon It, displayed his usual magnanimity and cou-
rage. Alfityate s stands on an emineace, and over-
looks the wood and plain between it and Cascelles dos
FLres, alongside of the Castle 'furrett stood his
Lordship, General STUART, and Lord 7.011111 T MAN•
NUM ; and it was not until the cavalry of theenerny
were at the very entrance of Allayates (which I
think is the most wietchtii place in Portugal), that
either of them made a move ; his Lordship stood,
with his slats in his hand, watching the enemy's
movements ; and to the superior speed of English
horses, was Lord Rosana. IVIANNEES indebted for l'ia
safety, being the last of the three ; coming down the
hill, hail the villey, he was closely parnued by ten of
the enemy's dragoons, and his base leaped over one.
of the high walls, so peculiar to Portugal in the sepa.
ration of its fields, and thereby with pod Mannar, left
his pursuers in the rear."
The detachment of the 4th Battalion of the First
Royals, landed at Gravesend on Friday last, from
Leith, consisted of 675 men—they were accompanied
by upwards of 200 of the 25th regiment of foot.
Parties of the sth, 28th, 461 h, and 62d regiments
are now recruiting in Plymouth, from the volunteers
of. the Roscommon and King's County Militias--
The sth, commanded by the General of the Plymouth
district, (Enocann) meets with the greatest success.
Lieutenant CHARLES SMITH, oldie Royal Marines,
son of the late Colonel W. P. SMITH, of the Royal Ar-
tillery, Lieth Fort, was the unfortunate sufferer in the
boat which upeet alongside his Majesty's ship Eu-
siorr, on the 22d ult.
Monday sennight, some experiments were made it
General Money's, is Norfolk, with artillery on a sl -
ding carriage placed on a waggon, when the shot came
so near the mark that they would have struck a slur, if
within reach, lying at anchor : the gun was Werkcil
and fired by labourers. Shells acre .t the same time
thrown from a howitzer, used as a mortar on this ca -
riage, and, although at 45 -degrees of elevation, no -
jury was done to the waggon, and the shells thrown
(when no diminution or increase was made in the
charge) with the greatest accuracy. Many military
men were present, who expreised much surprise, .
they bad never seen shots much lets shells, throes
frow.a waggon.
