PARIS. June 1.
The Moniteur of this day relates the
handsome sortie of the garrison OF Almeida,
commanded by general Brenier. Summon
ed by numerous enemy, who surrounded
the place on all sides, tins brave officer does
mt he ,itate he unites his troops, takes the
small quantity OF provisions remaining, and
capitalization, he blows up all the fortifcati-
ons: but in opening The place TO the enemy,
he precipitates himself through the besieg-
ing army, overthrnws every thing that he
finds i'll his way, and arrives 1T the head
quarters OF the I'd corps, bringing with him
considerable number Of prisoners.
Lord Wellington had announced in SIEVE
raj successive dispatches, that the garrison
and the town of Almeida could not escape

that defended the place. English papers

passed through their army and caused il
considerable loss But in order to lessen the
shame of the affair." they pretend that the
fourth regiment OF the English line was not
at its post that other corps had marched
in aditferent dirsc ion, and that the French
garrison OF Almeida firing cannon every
evening In order to inform the French &c.
neral thai they sill occupied the town,
they had believed at the moment when &c
neral Srenier came out OF the place. that
the explosion proceeded from the same
cause. such reasons are contemptible.
when General Bremen determined to reioin
the French head quarters, he certainly did
not calculate upos the absence of the Eng
hsh and besides it Is difficult to conceive
how beseging army, an army that has
summoned TIE town, should not be on the
spot when the garrison makes sortie, and
when it blows up five bastons and all the
