THE- STATESMAN.

LONDON:
SATMA Ye liAlf IC, 1812.

We have received Cornona Papers to the 9th inst.
—They represent the French armies as defeated mid
dispersed in every quarter, and on full retreat to.
wards France. We have been frequently told a si-
milar tale, and as frequently been obliged to contra-
dict it, By-and.bye we shall see how far the ac-
counts contained 1n .the Portuguese Papers of the
defeats and reverses of the enemy, are well founded.
The following are extracts
DIBPATCiI mom FIELD-AtAasuAL ESPOZ
AND MINA, DATED ZALDUENDO, APRIL. 119 TO TILE
GENEILAL-IN.CIIIIEF OF TILE SEVENTH ARMY.

On the 9th inst. L attacked, between Castellejo de
Arlaban end Guarnicion de Salinas, on the high
road of Vittoria, 2000 infantry. and one hundred
and fifty horse ; the result bas been the falling of
the convoy into my power they protected-500 of
the enemy were killed on the field of battle, 150 pri-
soners made (some of whom have since died), and
400 Spaniards released ; 100 wagons have entered
Vi.t4ria, with wounded, of whom the greater part
base had an arm or leg amputated, in addition to
those who have arrived at Sal.ioas. There remains
in this kingdom various colamns of enemy's troops,
for the purpose of pursuing me. I have received
your Exczilency's official dispatch for Colonel
Carcumsa, and the ammunition. I have determined
that ono of my officers shall deliver the prisoners and
liberated Spaniards to Senor JAUrtEQUE, to be for-
warded to Senor LONGA, that they may successively
-be give; to your Excellency ; nevertheless my M-
iser has orders to-present himself with them to your
Excellency.—(Ezado Corrcso de Corunnu, .31;kys8.)
POTES, Aran.

In a short time this kingdom will be entirely free-
from the enemy, as the troops have, in effect, zone
to attack Torrelavega. In Villareayo and Medina
we have the division of Iberia, which is composed of
4000 inf.-tufty and 600 horse; and in Arduna two
batralions have been organised. We positively know,
that 35,000 men have marched through !►un for the
North; and that to the amount of 50,000 are to
proceed LI the same direction.--(Corunnu Diary,
Pray S.)

VILLAFItANCA, APRIL 48.
We know from good authority that the French
are reduced'ts a state of desperation, and are taking
every possible means to conciliate the Spaniards.—
Part of the troops which marched for the purpose of
bombarding Ciudad Rodrigo have returned to Valla-
dolid, and the remainder have beia distrilsated among
the garrisons from where they set out. Of these
troops 2000 are about to proceed to Burgos, and
will, we are assured, continue the route for France.
They find a great change in their situation ; the pride
they formerly manifested is completely lowered, they
fully comprehend how adverse is their fate. Our
guerilla parties augment daily, and interrupt all coin-
snunigations of the enemy's garrisons in Castile, and
prev e 4 them from collecting contributions, notwith-
sta.icii,lg the extreme misery to which they are re-
duced,—(Sumo Paper.)
