less than 5000 of their men are sup
posed to have fallen. Besides which.
we took prisoners Gems. Rufen, Ros-
seau and Belgrade, the former of
whom was wounded, and about 400
rank and file, together with an eagle
ana SIX pieces of cannon. The loss
on the side of the allies consisted of
100 killed, $40 wounded but most of
the latter were expected shortly to re-
cover.

ed this morning ON the occasion of this
important triumph the dispatches will

The following is the official commu-
nication 20 the CITY:
Downing street, March "a, mid
night.
MY LoRD-Capt. Hope, Aid de-
camp to Lieut.. Gen. Graham, is lust
arrived with the account of the glorious
issue OF an action fought on the 5 tn inst.
oy the division under his command, a.
ganst the army of Marshal Victor,
composed OF the two divisions of Ru.
ten and Laval. Gen. Graham's divi-
sion marched from the Pacfa on the
18th ult. on the 5th instant, after a
nights march of sixteen hours, they ar
rived at the bridge of Harrosa, about
4 miles to the southwark of St Peter
h'ver. A well conducted attack On
the rear OF the enemy's line, near St.
Feter, by the van guard of the Spanish
army, under Gen. Lardizabel, and had
opened communication with the Isle
or Leon. Lieut.. Gen. Graham having
received the directions Of the Spanish
commander in Chief, to move down
fro the position of the Barrosa to that
OF the Torrode Barriage, received no.
sice on the march, that the enemy had
appeared in force on the plain. and was
advancing towards the heights of Bar
rosa. In this position most desper..
ate action took place, in which the
enemy was completely repulsed, with
the loss of an Eagle and six pieces of
cannon. The Gen. of ID vision Rufen
and the Gen. of Brigade Rosseau,
were wounded and taken. The Chief
of the Staff, Gen. Belgrade, an Aid
de-Camp to Gen. Victor, one Colonel
nine Captains, and about 48O rank and
file were made prisoners. 4 he field
was covered with dead bodies of the
enemy, and it was supposed that their
loss amounted to about 5000 IN kill
led and wounded.
The loss on the part Of the British
amounts to two Captains, FIVE Ensigns,
and about one hundred and ninety rank
and file killed FIVE Lieut.. Colonies,
one Major, fourteen captains, twenty
six Lieutenants, eight Ensigns, and
about nine hundred and forty rank and
file wounded. 1t appears that the
enemy had about 5000 men engaged,
and that the British, with the Spani-
ards attached to them, amounted to
about FIVE thousand.
Lieut.. Gen. Graham, with the troops
under his command, had crossed the
st. Peter river, and re entered the Isle
