SPAIN AND PORTUGAL.

LISBON, FEBRUARY 16.

General Albuquerque abandoning his positions on
the Tagus, spade a retrograde movement as far as Se-
ville, and finding that that position could not be de-
fended withoUt a force of 60,000 men, he ordered the
troops in that place to withdraw to Agamente, and
directed that the city should capitulate whenever such
a measure shouldbecome expedient fonts preservation.
The same General then proceeded to Ezija, in
search of the enemy, and after having put him to the
, rout,- the Spanish Commander took the direction to
the right towards Xeres, to cover the Isle of Leon,
occupying for this purpose Ciudad Real. It was there
the enemy attacked our army, and he was much or-
prised to find the resistance he met with, the conse-
quence of which was that 32 waggons of wounded
French were carried into Seville. The French were
reinforced, but ineffcetn4y, for the Duke of Albn-1
qnerque had 'older his orders to the number of 16,000
infantry, and 4000 cavalry.
The army of Areisaga finding itself pressed by the
prodigious accumulation of 64,000 of the enemy, took
the direction of Granada, and in the retreat was at-
tacked by a French column.
General Blake assumed the command of the army
of Jaen, increased by a number of peasantry, and
proceeded towards Murcia to draw off the attention
of the enemy, who, by such an expedient, was render-
ed vulnetable in the capital.
The enemy detached 15,000 men from its army to
Badajoe, into which city on the morning of the 12th
of February they sent a flag of mice to demand its
surrender, but the Governor would not receive the
dispatch, aid, on the contrary, intimated that if they
sent any more messengers they would be fired upon.
On the 10th, a body of infantry with 600 French ca-
valry, had appeared before the place, 'and during the
whole day had skirmishes with our advanced guard,
supported by the peasantry, many of whom were
killed, and more wounded, but who rushed upon the
enemy like lions, armed only with their knives. On
the 11th, in the evening, the French began to with-
draw, and were most grievously disappointed if they
contemplated these running engagements, as any
thing like a siege, whit.h was to acquire possession of
the city. At that place succours were daily expected
of English and Portuguese intantry and cavalry.
The Usurper, Joseph Napoleon, during his stay in
Seville, occupied his time in issuing Decrees for the
suppression of the Religious Communities and the
Inquisition, promising felicity and repose, according
to the French manner, to all who obeyed him. At
last Andalusia, after recovering from her first sur-
prise, is convinced that she ought not to submit to
the effort of violence, and that the impolicy of the
French has exposed them to danger by inducing them
to pass three distinct chains of mountains, of Murcia,
Cadiz, and Badajoz, where their progress is ob-
structed. •
The urcertainty with respect to the situation of the
intrepid and patriotic General, the Marquis de la Ro-
rnana, will be removed by the following spirited Pro-
clamation which was transmitted to us yesterday :
4, Spaniards I it might appear unnecessary, after so
marqlproclamations have been issued, to address you
again, for the purpose of exciting more strongly into
action your ardent love to your country. But the
disasters that have of late happened, occasioned by the
vices of the Government, oblige me to take up my
Ten, to tell you that the alarm and consternation into
which the invasion of Andalusia appears to have
