Extract ola letter dated Lisbon May 26.
Bercsford and Sout have had most
bloody battle at Aibuhera near Badajoz about
700 miles from this--it continued three days
(l6th, nth, lSth,) The victory is in favor OF
the allied armies-The French have re-
treated v It'll great loss.-Indced the loss Ill
killed and wounded or both sides is immense.
Report says, IL to $4,000 French and to
1000 allies. No quarter was given on either
side. Some say that Soult is killed. Beres
-ftsrd Was a prisoner for about hours, but was
rescued The British (heing always placed
in the hottest Of their battles) suffered severe.
" indeed the 66th, Slst, and Sd. entered the
action 500 strong and On the 18th, could on
" muster SOS men-the loss of British officers
is immense the Esd Regiment lost q off,
GERS, the Sd Regiment or Bluffs have only ore
officer that was not hit Chilled or wounded j
many Brigades after the action were COM
manded by Captains. On this occasion it is
said the Spaniards behaved CALAMITY.
-" Although the French were inferior in
point Of numbers yet they were three to one
in cavalry; they had two Regiments Of Polish
Lancers that did incredible execution. They
were several times charged by the British
Dragons, but on account of the flags at the
end Of the i.ances, the horses could not be
brought to face them. Lord Wellington
Joined Beresford on the 10Th, and 1900 of his
army were also on their march to join Beres-
lord-Gen. Hill from England arrived here
few days ago on his way to the army. Ano-
Their reinforcement of $4,000 men is coming
from Britain and Irelard-Indeed part OF
them have already arrived.
