Inc new Prussian decree which has pro-
h'oited all importation Of colonial goods into
the rrussian states. under penalty of con-
hscation and which forbids even the ex.
port OF such as are there at present, even
though furnished with certificates. has pro
duced great sensation, and has alrea :.
dy raised the price If colonial protluse. It
IS easy to foresec, that if this decree is exc
cuted with rigour, the price must expert
ence a still more considerable rise.

GlBRALrAR, August 81.
Part of General Ballesteros's division is ar
rived at AIgesiras.
A Diary Extraordinary of that town, pub
lished on the 27th inst, contains private &C
count from E,che, said to be entitled to Gre
dit of tbs action OF the 10th, between Souit
and Freyre, Of which mention was made In
our last. In this account it is acknowledged
that the right wing Of the Spanish army was
broken through bat, owing to the heroic re-
sistance Of the troops which composed 1t,
5000 in numbef) the enenly's loss was twice
as great as their own and Gen. Freyre hav-
ing succeeded in Withdrawing his routed
wing to the left, with an order hitherto un-
known in that army; our allies retired, with
ont the, least disper sion, too spot called Las
Nertientcs, 5 or 4 leagues from Grenadas.
There they stopped, and offered battle
to Soult,' who declined it upon see
ing which, the Spanish cavalry charged
the French horse and killed 500 of them.
Another sIirmish subsequently took place
between Lorea and Las Vertientes, the
result of which was, that the French aban-
doned the field and commenced their retreat
with precipitation, pursued, in their turn, by
the troops which they had SO lately seen retl-
ring before them.
Soult's force is estimated at between Is and
10000 men, and his total loss, to the date of
the account (the l5tb) at 5000 The Spanish
army is $4,000 strong, including $500 cavalry,
the horses ofwhich are in very good condition.
