DOWNING STREET, Aug. Is
Dispatches of which the following are co.
pies and extracts, were this day received
at the Office of lord viscount Castlereagh
one Of his rajesy's principal secretaries
of state, from lieut.. general the right hon.
sir Arthur Wellesley, K. B. dated Ia
lavera, Iuly 90.
Talavera de Ia Rey'sa, .JJaly 90.
My Lord,
General Cuesta followed the enemy's
march with his army from the Alberche on
the morning Of the Gath, and as far as Santa
Olalla, and pushed forward his advanced
guard as far as 'Turriios.
For the reasons stated to Your lordship
in,u,y despatch of the 2A,h, I moved only
two divisions of infantry and a brigade of
cavalry across the Alberche to Cassalsgoes,
under the command of lieut.. general Sher-
brooke, between gen. Cursta and me, and
with Sir r. Wilson's corps at Escalona.
1t appears. that gen. Vensgas lad not car.
risd into execution that part OF the plan Of
operations which related to his corps, and
that he was still at Daniel, in La Mancha;
and the enemy IN the course Of the 24lh,
25th and 2Sth, collected all his forces in
this part of Spain, between Torriios and
Toledo, leaving but a small corps of 1000
men ia that place.
His united army thus consisted Of the
corps of marshal Victor, Of that of general
Ssbas.iana, and of z or 5000 men, the
guards OF Joseph Bonaparte, and the garri-
son of Madrid, and it was commanded by
Joseph Bonaparte, aidedby marshals Vic
tor, Jourdan, and gen. Sebastiana.
On the Goth, gen. Cuesta's advanced
guard was attacked near TorrIos, and o.
bligsd to fall back, and the gen. retired with
his army on that day to the leis bank of the
Albershe, gen. Sherbrooke continued at
Casalegos, and the enemy at Santa Olalla.
ltwas then obvious thar the eaemy in.
tended to try the result ola general battle,
for whioh the best position appeared to be
in the ncighborhood of Talavera and gen.
Cuesta having consented to take UP this po-
.;,;on on the morning OF the 9Th, order
ed gen. Sherbrooke to retire with his corps
to its station inshe line, leaving gen. Mac
Kenz;e with division of infantry and a
brigade of cavalry, as an advanced post In
the wood, on the right of Alberche, which
covered our left flank.
The position taken up by the. troops at
Talayera extended more than two miles !;
the ground was open upon the left, where
the British army was stationed, and it was
commanded by height, onwhich was, in
eschellon and in second line, division of
infantry, under the order of major general
Hill.
There was a valley between this height
and a range of mountains still further upon
the LETT, whichvalley was not at first occu-
pied, as At mas commanded by the height
