indulged theinseltes in every species of cruelty and
excest. King Joseph is at present at Port St. Mary's,
riding in his coach and six ; he has with him about
3000 men. The enemy are throwing up spaldones
(breast-works), and have already taken possession of
the warehouses of Port Royal, where their force at
present appears to be strong.. The Government of !
this city have placed an embargo on all vessels laden
with oil, wine, and provisions. We have had six men
killed on board one of the gun-boats, and a bomb fell
near the San Justo, which is moored close to the beach.
Two frigates have arrived from South America with
upwards of five millions of dollars, and we are abun-
dantly supplied with all kind of provisions.
" FEBRUARY 20.—One of the most extraordinary
events of the present war is, that the famous Pourliet,
commonly called " El Marquisito," and who has
made so much noise in Asturias, is at present the
Governor of Xetes, under King Joseph."
