their escape. General Pike, with about, 200 then,
were killed, by the blowing up of a magazine in one
of the batteries) and in which they had a train of
powder for the purpose. About 50 of the British
artillerists were killed by the same explosion. The
loss on both sides is considerable. Our army is
now in possession of the town, and is expected here
shortly. Our troops behaved with the greatest
gallantry. Immense quantities of military stores
and Indian good* were taken at York, which seems
to have been the depot for these articles. The veg.

ICORVNNAI JUNE 7.--(Nua o'CLoca, P. M.).—
The post from Castile has just arrived; it brings ac-

heard of the French having abandoned Valladolid.
1 SANTIAGO, June 4..—A1l the troops have gone
lout from Ciudad Rodrigo. On the 25th, they were
I preparing to enter Salamanca (and, to fact, it is u-
serted that they did enter on the 26th). Gen. Hill
was to fall on Madrugal and Medina almost at the
same time. Gen. Penne was with the cavalry le
, Vellar de Ckryoa ; and the letters from Alcanices
suppose that some English troops had an engage-
meat at Zamora, under the command. of General
Graham, who will collect there a considerable army,
which some make to 'amount to 40,000 men. The
same accounts add, that all the troop-, bare left Se.
nalirk, except one'battitllon, which wiltimatediately
take the same road, Their direction appears tote
:.the 13aveza, to join the array wider Gen. Giron,
who, on the 29th ult. made a general movement, in
order promptly to take a position on the bank of the
Orbigo, where the advanced guards have already ar-
rived.

In Leap, are the Generals Salazar and Monso►
with 800 infantry, and 700 cavalry.
In Mayorgo,- Castro Gonzalo, and Valderas, are
the enemy, and with respectable forces to observe
our troops•; all appearances and advice, show that
the movement of the latter is rapid, uniform, and
well combined. Lord Wellington was, on the lth,
at St. Munoz ; 6nd General Castanos, on the 29th,
at Marti! del Rio.
The reports that have been circulated that the
armies have already engaged, and that our troops
have possessed themselves of Salamanca and Zamora,
are not improbable. The horrors of Castro Urdiales
are confirmed.

In a Second Edition of the STATIIII4 or, last night,
we announced the Arrival of Paris Papers. They
come up to the 10th inst. and announce the entry of
the"Freach into Breslaw. General LAURISTON en-
tered the city on the-Ist of June, where the Civil
and Military Authorities remained, and 'whence a
deputation proceeded to the &mane Occh,o FRZNCII,
at Neumark. The Prussian rising fa 'same, thei44
fore, seems to have reposed in a RUM 3 for It
hii rot,
as we predicted in a former STATRI*I3.I, operated
the least good whatever.
The Russians and Prussiani it seems are separated,
and it is high time they did so ; for they have been
out-manoeuvred by their experieuced adiersary, who
has driven them into a.nook, whence we can, with
difficulty, devise the possibility of their escape, sepa-
rately or conjointly, unless the Emperor of AUSTRIA
does at last take pity on them, and allow them a pas-
sage through a part of his dominions.—llere is a ful-
filment of the fine predictions of the Courier and
Post, with a witness, and & verification of their bold
assertions with respect to the issue of the three battles!
The German Count BustrA is so indefatigable with
Ilaipect to the treaty going, on, that we may safely
-assume the fact of the Estesepa himself being cor-
dially interested in the effecting a permanent Conti-
mental peace. Nowlsthe time for the Poles again
to raise their heads. It ie
_highly probable that their
late new masters areibitat to visit them, for the last
timel en their return home. This Fist cannot but
appear externally as that, of friends gad a fare-
well will be offered as such : but we are
well persuaded that the inhabitants of M-
used Poland will immediately arm, and assume
-mgain an independent position, as we confess we
'hop% for a permanency. They have reason to love
neither Prussia nor !Lassie, put may say With oar

At a General Meeting of the Roman Catholic Pre-
, totes of Ireland, held in Dublin, on Saturday, the
!9th May, 1813;• the. Most Rev. W. O'REILLy,
President, the following Resolution was unlit&
intoady adoptei :
Resolvett:—Tbet the RION Rev. Hector JOHN MILNER,
Bishop of Cabiaboln oat vigilant anvil incorruptible agent, the
powtrfal and noweeiled champion of she Catholic Re:igloo% coo.
times to possess fir esters. our amide's's. and our inti ude.
RICHARD OIEILLY. Presiiirat.
A. Meeting of the Catholic Board was to take
'keit On Saturday last, at which it was intended to
mete bra vote of Thanks to Dr. MlL‘un, fur his
ibittleOthduct in defence of the Catholic Religion.
At the CATHOLIC BOARD n Efelplio on the Stb hut,
Mr. Fists said, that 'he had it that moment re,
ceived a thost interesting communication from a highly
respectable Clergyman of the 'County Monaghan,
which gave a most alarming account of several late
acts of wanton atrocities and unprovoked outrage
committed by certain Orangemen,of that county, on
his Majesty's Catholic subjects. The Clergyman
front whom he received this communication, had res
ideated that the Board would state the grievances of
the Catholics of that county to Government„ in or..
der that they might be protected from mardeP andi
assassination !
Mr. HUGHES said that the accounts he had lately
received from the county of Monaghan were shocks
ing to humanity. A few days ago, at the fair of
Clones, a Roman Catholic was murdered by some
Orangemen, who were supposed to escape with bag
punity.
Mr. O'CoNnsu. sugg'sted, that it would be ne.
cessary to institute a previous enquiry, in order to
ascertain, first, whether the facts would warrant the
Board in applying to the Legislature for relief. It
might also be necessary to bring this subject before
the Court of King's Bench in tile ensuing Term.—•
He would, therefore,- recommen4 to Mr. throngs to
prOpose; that a Committee of fise be appointed to
receive information, and investigate this important
subject.
A Commitiee, consisting of Mi. n7BOllll, Mr.
O'CoPussia., Mr. Scotty, Major' Bier AN, &lid Mr*
.R.IHYONNELL, was accordingly appoitited.
