to be one of the chief objects of public attention. His
movements evidently excite great interest, some fear,
and much moailication. Ile is of such an active,
enterprising, and intrepid spirit ; his feats are so many,
and hi, escapes from the secret snares and open hos-
tilities of his enemies, border so much on the mar-
vellous, that he must necessarily be an ohject of in-
ten..e curiosity. Three corps, conducted by three of
the best Officers in Strain, are engaged is his pursuit

war or the Peninsula, informs the Cortes, that he
came up with 31Eatxo, after a march of eleven
leagues, near Bo:eio, aad that he killed thirteen or
fifteen of the r,:;cl.c on the spot, and took seven pri-
soners, of whom six were badly wounded ; and it
appears he was directing his course towards the
mountains of the Sierra, when he was attacke I.
