he saw a Spanish officer, who was
going TO 'Cadfz With dispatches. The
officer Uniformed him that he left the
headquarters Oxford Wellington on
the 1 .h of October, and at that time
there had been no fighting since the
% h ofSeptember. He SAID the com.
bined forces. were in high spirits, and
that Lord Wellington was prepared
to meet the enemy.
The gentleman with whom we con.
vsrssd has been in Spain aud Portu.
gal tor six or seven years past, speaks
the Spanish language fuently, and
appears to be perfectly acquainted
with the affairs of those countries.
He gives it as his opinion, that the
French can never conquer the Spanish
and Portuguese until the people are
entirely extirpated. He says there is
such an enmisy against the French.
that they can never be safe in the
Peninsula, as long as there is a Pcrtu.
guese or. Spaniard in 4 the country.
The Spanish soldiers in the paw Of
France take every opportunity TO as
sassinate the French. AS an instance
OF their deadly enmity, he states that
a French general had left garrison in
a small town of-about 500 men, near.
ly half of whom were Frenchmen. the
rest SPaniards. AS soon as the main
army had marched of, the Spaniards
rose upon the. French, and put every
one of them to death. Cadiz, he
says. can never be taken, and though
the French kept up the lombard ment
OF that city, they can do very little
damage, and the people are under no
apprehension.
The French treat the Americans
with the greatest indignity and seve-
rity possible. At Ayamonte our in
tormant saw the captain aud supercar.
60 OF the schr. Mary, which had been
taken by the French. The captain
and crew were marched across the
country almost bare-focted to Seville j
where they were imprisoned in an ass
stable, and were soon to be marched
to bordeaux as prisoners Of war. But
by the assistance of the Spaniards.
the captain and sepercargo had made
their escape, and travelled disguised;
as muleteers to Ayamonte !; where
they wefe generously supplied by the
Spaniards with money and clothes.
Our informant was at Cadiz on the
1st of October, and saw several regi-
ments embark for Portugal to rein.

the young English officers were so
anxious to meet the French, that ma
ny had peti,ioned their superior of.
GERS tobe sent to Portugal. The rea.
der will perceive that the 18th of Oc-
sober IS the latest date from the seat
OF was. And as our inteIligsnce comes
direct, IL must. conyisce every one
that the tales whichghave been circu- |
lated ofibs,<i~fcat OF lord Wellington
are unfounded. If there has been q !
battle, It could not have been known
in Dublin, at the date OF our last ac-
counts from thence. There has un-
1oubtedly, however been an action
