OF the late operations IT 3ayonne and Toulouse,
are conveyed in dispst Chez from the marquis
OF Wellington 20 The 23.,l inst. The battle on
the 10Th was severely contested. The enemy
we're advaltageais:y posted in the suburbs Of
Toulouse which had III three sides the LAM
guedoc canal and the Garoane; and its de-
fence was completed by strong Notifications.
The lett of the British army under marshal
Beresford, attacked the enemy's right; and
their eent'e was assaiied by the Spaniards un.
der general Frere. The latter were, however.
soon repulsed. and being. with = heavy loss.

Instance by the exertions OF t,ielr officers,
hey were. however. rornaed anew !; and, aided
by the brave division under Sir L. pictvn. IL
turned to the attack. Inthe mean time sir w.
Serestord had compalled the Anemy's right to
abandon their ground; and had directed his
valiant troops against their centre. Here he
was emincntly success,ui; and t.,s return Of
the spaniards decided the fortune Of the dav.
The enemy were not. however. followed int
the city but they abandoned it on the nights
OF the 18th. The loss Of the allies was consi.
derable, amounting to 1859 men; of whom
1l245werc British. 1923 Spaniards, and COY

The loss sustained by tho allies by the aalIv
from BAyonne was not exaggerated; and the
allegation OF treachery against the governor
was unfounded. AT the commencement tn.
attack was successful; but it was completeIv
frustrated in the end. The loss of the allies
amounted to 844 men, and the loss of officers
was particularly severe.
The people of Toulouse hoisted lord Wei.
Ilington on their shoulders, and carried him in
the same manner as the Roman soldiers used
to hail atavorite commander imperator.
