LISBON, MAY Q.
The day before yesterday a Spanish Gentleman at.
Lived here, whom I have seen, and who passed through
the country in which a great part of the army of the
enemy is encamped, and who gives the following in-
formation :--The French are encamped between Sa-
lamanca and Ciudad Rodrigo to the Southward, and
at Menvia they have a strong force of perhaps 15,000
men. In the whole, he computes that there are in
that line between 50 and 70,000 men ; but this cal-
culation, considering the scattered manner in which
the enemy is posted, must be somewhat vague.
In point of clothin, the troops of the enemy are
very well off. Thos that have lately arrived from
Madrid, and they are numerous, are equipped entirely
in new regimentals, and large supplies of clothing for
the rest had reached the head-quarters, which are in
the neighbourhood of Ciudad Rodrigo. A sort of
depot is forming at Salamanca, and quantities of bread
(both French and Spanish) had been brought there.
Meat was rather scarce, particularly beef.
This Spaniard mentions also, what I am rather
disinclined to believe, that King Joseph was expected
from Madrid. Marshal Massena arrived, it is said,
on or about. the 9th inst.

The following accurate calculation of the loss of the French in
the month of March, in the kingdom of Arragon only, may
give some idea of what the frantic attempt to subjugate Spain is
likely to cost theist. It is to be observed, that notwithstanding
this loss, the enemy has not advanced a step, but on the con-
trary, the design which Sachet had upon Valentia, has been
frustrated. Augereast has found himself obliged to retire from
Rens, and to abandon his project of investing Tarragona and
opening a communication with Arragon. Their loss in killed,
wounded, prisoner', and deserters, is stated as follows: About
the cad of February O'Donnel attacked the French in the
plains of Vick. The battle was very sanguinary en both sides, so
that the twe armies returned fatigued to their former positisns.
The loss of the French exceeded 2000. Sucbet, with 12,000 men,
endeavoured to make himself master of the city of Valentia, but
after remaining five days before its walls, judged it proper to retire.
—At the same time the Arrogenese division of Villa Camp; a--
tacked the garrison Which &Ice LT had left at Ternal and Aven-
toss to secure his communication, causing them a loss in killed,
wounded, and prisoners of more than 430, they also lost five
pieces of artillery, and a quantity of baggage, at Mena, in the
Cisto villas (free towns), more than WO ; different attacks near
Manzo, 100; when the first convoy entered Hustairich, 40;
the Regiment of Hussars of Olivetti's, made prisoners, 70;
the Garrison of Villa Franca, 000; at Esparaguera, 1200; at
Manusa, 800; deserters, 600; Barrio Loco:), 76; Francisqueti,
60; two villages of La Mancha, 300; deserters, 17 ; making in
the whole a total of 7103: and more than 400 dispersed about
Manusa, which have doubtless fallen into our bands.—Lishos
