hours, during winch, the Spaniards retained
their ground but finding themselves so inferi-
or in number, they retreated, during the night, to
Dlboa, anG, two days after, fell back 81 miles
further, when they were joined by the troops
from the B.4,ic, under the command of General

the French were completely defeated. Ncy is
