Government yesterday received dispatches from
Mr. WELLESLEY at Cadiz, dated the 15th ult. It is
understood that the troops with General BLAKE had
embarked on the preceding day to set sail for Huelva,
district of Niebla, to join General BALLAsTsuos, and
with him to proceed in the direction of Seville.—
Sour has proceeded to meet and form a junction
with Mott riatc, who detached General MARTINIERE
with 2000 men to facilitate that object. It is the
npinion in Cadiz, that all the French armies will be
concentrated, and that they will be strong enough to
!Llzard a battle. _ _

A legion is now forming by Colonel DOWNIE,
%v:,iCll is to consist of 2000 infantry and 1000 cavalry,
and is to be called the Legion Estremania. This
T,'rce is to be commanded chiefly by British officers,
and is to be attached to the fifth army, stationed in
-Lt:rernadura. The following is an extract from the
tatter we have alluded to, and which was put on board
at Lis'oon on the 420th ult..—
" The Spani,h Fifth army, which suffered greatly from the
treacherous surrender of Badajos, is at present in Portugal be-
hind the English, and consists of front 6to 10,000 men. Gene-
r‘l BaLI.tSTEROS is scouring the country as a Guerilla with a
I.w thousands of Iris carps. He and General Don CARLOS Ds
T ANA are considered zs very able and active officers, and as
_ssing the confidence of the army."
A letter has been received from Colonel WATERS,
:zing the circumstances of his escape to the Eng.
i,sh a:my. It is dated from head-quarters, the 17th
of April. He says that he was confined seven or
&ght days under a guard at Ciudad Rodrigo, having
ntuscd to accept of his parole of honour, and that he
r.; raged to elude the vigilance of his myrnndions.
A vessel has arrived from Lisbon, which left the
Taus on the 27th. When she sailed, it was reported
that Lord WELLINGTON had advanced towards An.
dglusia at the head of 7000 English and Portuguese
cavalry, and a large body of horse artillery. He was
accompanied by Marshal BERESEORD'S army, in which
the Spanish and Portuguese corps are said to amount
to 25,000. The first object of this movement was
understood to be to operate a junction with the Spa-
nish;xpedition from Cadiz, under General Duals.
