SALISBURY AND GENERAL ADVERTISER OF WILTS, HANTS, DORSET\ AND SOMERSET. rr—*— r—- at- [ N'UMBER 3733. VOLUME LXXIII.] MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1808. pftia: SIXPENCE. / Stamp Duty.... j Paper and Print, 3M. Sirf. Monday's and Tuesday's Posts. FOREIGN NEWS. VENICE, August T. IN the port of Trieste, there has been lying for these seven months six large Russian ships of the line and frigates ; and here nine smaller frigates, brigs, and Cutters, are at anchor- These are now taking in Several months provisions, and it is hence concluded, that on being united, they will shortly set sail. LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST* 23. iinte Our hst, some Dutch papers and letters to thfe ; Sta inst. aittt Hatoburgh journals to tbe 17' tb, have been ' received. The tetters announce the return of King Joseph to Bayonne. A Mail arrived this morning from Corunna, and brought Gazettes from that place to the 19th instant. The ' cause of the Patriots continues to triumph in every direc- tion. The advanced guard of the army under Castano^ entered . Madrid on the 9th, and proceeded in pursuit of the French. The Onke del Infantado, JovSllanos, and • everij other distinguished Spaniards, are said to have joined General Blake, after escaping from the guards set « ver them bv the French. It appears that Joseph left Madrid with" 22,000 French troops. The enemy moved very slowly, to protect their heavy baggage and valuable plunder. The smugglers, however, who followed close in the rear of the French, sucCf i ded in cutting off property to the amount of 350,000 dollars The Madrid Gazette of the 9th contains a Proclamation, dated the 3d of August, by the Junta of Cdstile, which had assembled at Madrid, calling on all persons between the ages of Io and 50, in the capital, to repair to the patriotic standard, with a view of furthering the objects of their brethren in arras. A letter from Castanos also appears in the same Gazette, announcing his victory over Dupo. it. He estimates the troops under Dupont at 9000, and Wedel 3000. There is also a letter from Palafox, in which he states himself to fee in complete possession of Saragossa, and gives defiance to ' the French. The Polish troops in Spain have revolted and succeeded in joining the P. triots, after a severe struggle. The Spanish Papers state, tl-. at'the French troops which weie at Segovia and Valladolid have retreated to B, urgos, where it app- ars the enemy intends to concentrate the whole of his force. By the Cheerful £ un- brig, from Gijon, Government received a confirmation of the, news rumoured on Sa- tnrday, that the inhabitants of Biscay have at length taken tip arms against their invaders.— The Junta of the Province have already assembled, and are proceeding with the greatest • activity. Their first public act was the issuii » of a patriotic proclamation, calling upon the people- to emhjate- their brethern in arms in other parts of the kingdom, and to imitate the glories, conduct of their brave progenitors, •* bo- had resisted the attacks of the Gtrtbagenians and J^ onians. The Biscayans were in great want of arms and military stores, but his Majesty's ships on the North- West coast of Spain bad £ iven them every aid in their power, and a considerable body was already in a condition to take the field. The last accounts which Government have received from Sir Arthur Wcllesley- are" dated the I2th instant; at that time he was at Leira : he had been joined by General Spencer's division, and by a corps of between 5 and 6000 • Portuguese, and was advancing towards Lisbon. General Anstruther's division passed i'errol on the 12th, under convoy of the St. Alban's and Aimuble. Another packet from Bayafnne with dispatches for South America has been captured by his Majesty's ship Cossack. This is the fifth pa* ket with dispatches captured within these few weeks. On the present occasion the enemy succeeded in sinking the dispatches before the capture. Debts to the amount of 580,0007. have now been proved against the late firm of Sir Roger Kerrison and Son ; and it is supposed that at least 20,0007. more remain to be proved. NEW BARONETS.—"-' R Jonathan Lovett having no son, has obtained a new grant, extending the succession to the tnale issue of his three daughters. The following new patents ^ re also spoken of:— Rear- Admiral Edward Buller, Mark Wood, Henry Conj'Jighani Montgomery, Thomas Jones, James Graham ( of Lincoln's Inn), Sitwell Sitwell, Andrew Corbet, William Coles Medlycott ( of Venn House, near Milborne Port), Charles Hoar Marland, John Perring ( Alderman of London), George Piggot, and Gore Ouseley, Ksqrs.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 31. " Communications tiarvB certainty passed between our Government and that of Denmark, which it is hoped may lead to a return of good undemanding'and friend- ship between us and the Danes. We understand thart Government purpose to pay off immediately nineteen or twenty sail of the line, and to transfer the crews to smaller vessels of war, which arc to be sent to the Baltic and other quarters where thev are most wanted. It is no longer deemed ncc'cssary to keep up large fleets, since the enemy is no • where in sufficient force to meet them.— Suiu THE BRITISH NAVV.— According to the reports tip to the present day, there are in commission 822 ships of war, of which 162 are of the line, 2. S from 50 to 55, 1B0 fri- gates, 229 sloops of war, and 228 armed brigs. Besides which there are. repairing for service and building, a num- ber, which makes the grand total 1113 - hips, of which 271 sire of the'iine, 38 from 50 til 4- 1, 252 frigates, 292 sloops of war, and 250 armed, brigs. We have at this moment in the British Navy sixty- eight sail of the line, prizes taken from the enemies of this country at different periods! besides 21 ships, carrying from < 10 to 50 guns each ; 63 ships from 30 to 40 gun. each; 15, carrying from 2!) to 30 guns caeh; and GO, from 10 to 20 guns each, making a total of two hundred and thirty- two ships! a navy itself equal to cope with the united Navies of Trance and her vassal Allies, without adding thereto near SO sail of the line, besides smaller vessels, now in our service, built on the bottom of prizes, ill lieu of such as have been casually lost. About 25 transports sailed from the Nore, at an early hour on Sunday morning, with orders to proceed with all possible dispatch to Yarmouth, where a convoy is provided to conduct them to the Island of Lanjelan. l, fur the purpose of bringing away the Spanish troops. They' will come in the first instance to this country, in order to be furnished with ammunition and clothing before they are sent to Spain. Orders have been received for the immediate return to the Tower, of all the pikes which have been collected at the Ordnance depot at Dover Castle : they consist of four- teen waggon loads, and are intended to be sent with other stores, which are now shipping in the River, for the use of th • Spanish Patriots. Ten military waggons, laden with dollars for the use of the Spanish Patriots, left the Bank yesterday morn- ing for Portsmouth, with a military escort. There are now in this country Deputies from Liniers and the Cabil. lo, or Council of Buenos Ayres, and also from the Governor and Council of Monte Video, charged with an important ' mission to the British Government. The Deputies being accompanied by a confidential Agent of the Prince Regent, from Brazil, it is supposed that the insight which the emigration of the Portugues" Cow t gave, into the designs of Bonaparte, upon the whole of the Sotitb- IVeste-' n peninsula of Europe, had determined the Spanish colonies on the Rio de la Plata to take early precautions to secure their ultimate independence, and to maintain peace with their new and powerful neighbours in Brazil. A letter, dated on board the Warley East Indiaman, at sea, on the 24th of February, at which time she was • within a few days sail of Bombay, states, that oil her arri- val at Bombay she expected to be sent up the Persian Gulf with troops. The letter adds, that the market, at Madras, was very good. BRITISH AMERICA.— The inhabitants of the Canadas, according'io their public journals, feel no alarm from the threatened rupture with the United States. They boast that with IB, 000 British troops and their own militia they can repel any force that may be brought against them. The embargo in the United States has beer, very favourable to Canada, having occasioned a great inSu\ of Capital from the'former to the latter country, and also a great command for the staple commodities of Canada, viz. wheat, pot- ashes, and lumber. The Canadians have besides a consi- derable traffic by the Americans finding means to evade the embargo, in which they sometimes have skirmishes with the military which their Government has stationed on the frontier to enforce the law.— Hemp and flax are now culti- vated with success in Canada, and this year timber, for the use of the navy, has been cut in the forests reserved for that purpose ; " staves, flour, pork, & c. have also ben con- tracted for in great quantities for the use of Government. Monday afternoon, the Euryalus frigate, . com- manded by the Hon. Captain Dundas, arrived at Harwich, having on board Madame the Countess de Lille ( consort of I/ iuis XVIII.) the Duke and Duchess of Angouleme, Cpunt and Countess d'Qamas, Count Ktietme d'Damas, and 25 persons of the suite of the Countess de Lille. They landed yesterday morning, and immediately set off for Gbsfield Park.— On passing Yarmouth, the frigate made a signal to th- Majestic; Admiral Russell immediately hoisted the royal standard at the main, and the union at the mizen, tmd fired a royal salute, which was repeated by Admiral Douglas's flag- ship the Roebuck. On entering Harwich harbour, they were saluted by the Racoon sloop of war. Mmm. ESF. x MEETING.— In consequence of a requisition, signed by several freeholders, a meeting was yesterday held at the Mermaid at Haekney, at which only 45 of the free- holders attended. Major Cartwright pronounced an eulo- gium on the grand efforts making by the Spaniards, to rid their country of their unprincipled invaders, which he thought demonstrated that the people of other States would oppose the common enemy, if their rulers would give them - uflicient liberty to interest them in the contest. The Spaniards, in the proposal to establish their ancient Cortez, were promoting the very same reform which was wanted in this country. He read a petition, which he would submit to the meeting, on that subject, and was in- tended to be presented to his Majesty, along with a separate address, lie then concluded by moving the following reso- lutions : 1st, That for aiding the Spanish Patriots the King is entitled to the gratitude of mankind. 2dly\ That a People who will fight for their liberties are alone worthy of th; friendship of a free Nation. ally, That to have found such Allies is an event pecu- liar gratifying. . . 4t'bly, That we ardently desire to see re- established in Spain the an'ci - nt Government of a King, and an independent Cor- tez, so balanced as to secure their national liberties. Sthly, That in the erand example of Spain is seen how a nit > r. is to he defended, and how Europe is to be delivered. (,' rhly, That what has been lost to the sacred cause of human liberty', by the levity, the vices, and excesses of France, since from that she departed, we trust may be regained by the gra- vity, the virtues, and the moderation of Spain. These Resolutions passed unanimously. Mr. Mellish, one of the Members for the county, com- plained that the meeting was not sufficiently advertised, which accounted for the non- attendance of the Freeholders. JJe therefore thought that the meeting should be adjourned. The 7th Resolution was then read, viz. " ' rh . t Spain heing separated from France merely by a line of His, and England merely by a channel, neither nation can Jioiv for sif ty or repose, unless by means of national liberty ' national arms b aring, the sole, preservatives of which are the r : aiitvof representation in the Legislature, and a perma- nent ortanimation tS the males who are able to bear arms." Mr. MeHish objected to this resolution, as it involved an extraneous subject, totally unconnected with the purport of the meeting.— He moved an adjournment, for the pur- pose of procuring a fuller attendance, at which the whole business might he re- cwisidored, and the sense of't. lie county fitirly taken.— After some altercation, this proposition was taniud, and the meeting was adjourned to Tuesday next BREAD.— Yesterday the Lord Mayor ordered the price • of Bread to be raised Unit' an assize, or SMr in the peek loaf; to commence to- morrow, wheimthe quartern loaf of wheaten is to be sold for 12# J. and household 11 Jrf. EXTRAORDINARY PERFORMANCE.— A bet of 500 guineas was lately made by Mr. Wardle, a gentleman well known in the sporting world, to run his pony against the mail coach, from London to Exeter, Saturday night last was the time lined on to start; they accordingly left Hyde- park Corner at the same instant, the pony without a rider, led ' y a groom on another horse, and relays of men and horses were - stationed, on the road to lead, it on. They kept nearly together far upwards of one hundred miles, after which the. pony continued to gain ground, and arrived at the New London Inn, in Exeter, on Sunday evening, one hour, before the mail;.- having performed a distance of 176' miles in 23 hours 89 minutes. This extraordinary little animal is only 12 Hands high, very handsome, and strong made ; be went the first 64 miles without stopping to feed, and at the end of his journey was perfectly fresh, full of spirit anil good appetite ; but having unfortunately lost both hind shoes about 14 miles from Exeter, and it beirg uncertain how far he had got the lead, be went that distance without them, which rendered him rather tender footed. Besides the original- bet, very considerable sums were sported on the occasion. This little animal lately carried a weighty ridei seventy miles in one day. It is accustomed to drink ale and beer, and has frequently drank a pint of port at a time. EXECUTION of MAJOR CAMPEELL.— On Wednesday last, thi; unfortunate Gentleman suffered the sentence of the law at Armagh. When he found that no hopes of a pardon were to be entertained, he hurried the hour of his execu- tion, and appeared impatient to die. He repeatedly sup- plicated that he might be shot; but this, for obvious reasons, was refused. At twelve o'clock he was led out for execution, and the moment he made his appearance the entire of the guard tooK off their caps, and he, in return, saluted them. Hii father- in- law and another gentleman remained with him all the time of his confinement, and received his corpse, which is to be taken to his native country, Scotland, for interment. During the time of the awful and affecting ceremony, we are informed that an Officer of another corps took the guard, while the regiment were confined to their barracks. It is truly lamentable, that the arm of the law, in striking the guilty, must reach the innocent. This un- fortunate man, we understand, has left a distracted widow and Jire children; and Captain Boyd, who fell by his hand, had a wife and seven; sixteen victims immolated at the bloody tribunal of False Honour !—' From the Dublin Cor- respondent, Jug. 26. FURTHER PARTICULARS. — Major Campbell suffered amidst a vast number of sympathising spectators. He spent the last moments of his confinement with Dr. Bowie, the father of Mrs. Campbell, and met his fate with forti- tude. His body, when cut down, was put into a hearse, to be conveyed to Ayr, in Scotland, and interred in the vault of the Breadalbane family: the Major was first cousin to the present Earl. His fate has been rendered peculiarly interesting by the unremitting exertions of Mrs. Campbell to procure a mitigation of his punishment, in the prosecution of which she appears to have endured fatigues of body " and mind, which might have been sup- posed too great for female strength. Her Majesty and the Princesses had paid lier great attention at Windsor, and prestnted her memorial to his Majesty; but, from all the circumstances of the case, the Royal mercy could not with propriety be extended to the Major : to hive pardoned him would have been cruelty to thousands. Mrs. C. how- ever quitted Windsor with faint hopes that her application would finally be attended to, and returned to the house of a friend, in ISury- street, St. James's. She left London by the Glasgow Mail on Saturday night, almost frantic be- tween hope and despair, but still cheered by the faint ex- pectation that her solicitude would obtain at least " another respite. On Monday morning her friend iu Burv- street received a letter from Dr. Bowie, announcing that " Major Campbell was no more," and that he expected to reach Ayr with his remains on the 30th ( yesterday) the very day that Mrs. Campbell would arrive " by the Mail. Major Campbell made his escape from Ireland after the death of Captain Boyd, in June 1807, and lived with his family, under a fictitious name, for several . months at Chelsea ; but his mind became so Uneasy, that he at last determined to surrender and take his trial, be the result what it might. May his fate, and the misery he has en- taili d on an amiable woman and innocent family, cheek that practice, which, without such examples, must degenerate into direct assassination!

The glorious intelligence was brought about eight o'clock last night to Lord Castlereagh's Office by Captain Campbell. It was soon after communicated by'his Lord- ship to the Lord Mayor. COPY. " DOWNING- STREET, Sept. 1. My LORD— I have tlie honour to acquaint your Lordship, that Capt. Campbell ar- rived this evening with dispatches from Lieut. Gen. § ir Arthur Wellesley, dated Vimiera, the. 22dult. giving an account of two Victaties obtained over the French arms in Portugal— the first on toe 171) 1 at Zambueica, over the advanced corps of the French, consisting of 6000 men, commanded by Generals La horde and Bernier, in which the French were defeated with th. loss of l. yio men, killed, wounded, and prisoners; the second, over tft* whole of the French army in Portugal, con- sisting of 14,000 men, commanded by Gen. Junot, wherein the French were completely defeated, with the loss of 13 piecas of cannon, 2- 3 tumbrils of ammunition, and about 0500 men, in killed, wounded, and prisoners. " In consequence of this action, gen. Kellerman arrived with a flag of truce at Head- quarters on the 2- 2d, to treat for terms. " Lieut, Gen. Burrard landed, and arrived . in th - field of action sifter the battle had commenced on the ilst clt.; but he 5 ruri-. usly declined taking the command from Sir Arthur " Wi- lleslcy. On the S2tl, Lieut. Gen. Sir 11 W Dilrymple. landed; and took the command — I have the honour to b'e, & c. ( Signed) " CASTLEREAGU. Ta the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, A » " c." In addition to the above letter, the following particu- lar- ure lated in private accounts :— it will be recollected that on th » 43th Sir Arthur, who had been joined by Gen. Spencer, was near Leyria. He continued his march with all possible speed, having the welcome information that The enemy were advancing from Lisbon to meet him.— CrftiieJSth Uickb W4S an affair of advanced posts near Cauda, and Oviedas.— OIJ the 10th the enemy halted.— OA the l" th our troops came up with the advanced corps o'. tire French, amounting to 6' 000 men— they'were most advantageously posted in the passes; but as Sir Arthur bad fatten in upon their line of march, he was under the iieqe'^ tv of attacking" them, though the position was so Bijeh in tjieir favour. Only part of our troops was en- gaged, ch'eHy the 5th, 9th", 20th, 69th, and 95th regi- ment ;; of these the 2i) th and 95th bore the brunt of the battle. Nothing could exceed the steady discipline and the cool and determined courage with which our troops adia-. eed to the attack. It was a very severe conflict, but here it was remarked, that our artillery was infinitely better served than '. hat of the French, vaunted to be the best in Europe. The enemy at length yielded to the * al ur of our countrymen, and fell back in confusion, and with great loss." They had GOOO. infantry and 800 cavalry.— The following was the order issued to our troops— Drive the French out of the pa ses on the road to Lisbon ; "•— And this order was executed. Sir Arthur pursued the enemy on the 18th, and pressed on 011 tiie li) th. On the 50th hi halted and drew off nearer the sett to cover the lauding of General Anstruther's division, As ^ jon as tho lauding was completed, the whole army iv. es refreshed after the fatigues they had undergone. On the A'l- t. Sir Arthur found that the enemy were determined to give him battle. They commenced the attack rat- her- before it was expected, and the letters describe them as coming on with great gallantry and good order. The onset", as usual • with the French, wa> impetuous in the extreme. They hoped by thisiinpi tuositv to throw our ranljs into confusion, and gain the victory., But they had British troops to deal with; and our men, nothing daunted by the violence of the onset, or the furious fire opened upon them, advanced without tiring a gun with fixed bayonets.— The enemy were di- mayed bv this steadiness and coolness, and were soon forced to fall back. The eouiliet then began to be most severe and sanguinary— ut though the enemy fought with ^ Wifflllafi'tl'JI affinfeteriff! tn£ ti" on, th y were never able to make any disadvantageous impression upon our troops. At length victory decided in our favour— the enemy were com- pletely beaten and dispersed into the woods contiguous to the scene of action. The action was fought at Yeinierai. Junot commanded 111 person, a\ d his main attack was commenced on our centre and left— our right, containing about 7000 men, was not < 0 much engaged as the other tw< V civisipii « . The French General Shibault was killed, ani? General Branier was wounded and made prisoner.— When taken by one of our grenadiers, lie offered hi in Ids purse and watch to let- hint go, but the grenadier spurned the oiler, and - brought the General to his Colonel.— The French General expressed to the Colonel much surprise at the disinterestedness of the grenadier.—'• Don't be sur- prised," said the Colonel, " We are not' come as robbers." —- Render then addressing himself to Sir A. Wellesley, said, 4t From the manner in which \ ou have fought, I suppose you have got the picked men of the army of England"— " By no means," replied Sir Arthur," this is only a speci- men of what the rest are." ..... After the battles on the 17th and the 21st, Sir Arthur Welleilcy issued the following General Orders : — " HEAD- QUARTERS, LOWRENHA, ' Ai: g., lVi The Lieut.- General was perfectly satisfied with the conduct of the troops in the action of yesterday, particularly with the gallantry dis- played by the i'th, 9th, 2<> th, 6' oth, and 95th regiments, to whose let it principally fell to engage. the enemy. " From the specimen afforded yesterday of their behaviour in action, the Lieutenant- General feels confident that the troops will distinguish themselves . whenever the enemy may give them another occasion, and it is only necessary for him to recommend to them a steady attention io their preservation of order and regularity, and strict obedience to the commands which the Officers niey give, " G.

" HEDD- QUARTERS, VEMIEKA, Aug. 21, Lieut.- General Sir Arthur Wellesley congratulates the army on. the signal victory they have this day obtained over the enemy, and rettJms them his warmest thanks for their resolute and heroic conduct.

In the mean tithe Gen. Kellerman was sent with a flag of truce 011 the 22d to propose terms. Junot had • expected, with such confidence, to beat us, that he said to his tfoufps before the battle—" Comrades, there are the English, and behind them is the sea— Be cool and steady ; vim have only to drive them all into it." The Negocfation was going oil when the accounts came away.—- A body of Junot's Guards, grenadiers, fought so steadily on their part, that 300 were found dead in their ranks. -' • It is said that in the terms proposed by the enemy, they wished to stipulate for the carrying off their plunder, which they have to an immense amount; but this, of course, would not be granted them.

ARTHUR WELLESLEY. Lavps, 4 th Aug. 1808. Oviedo Gazettes have been this morning received to the 21- t tilt. The French troops are in full retreat from Madrid by the way. of Vittoria. Joseph Bonaparte wa - to leave Burgos on the 12th, in the evening. Marshal Moiieey, who commands the van- guard of the retreating army, was to remain there, and the- division . of Bessieres was then entering the town.. Castanos was said to have entered Madrid on the 5th ult. The French entered Bilhoa 011 the I'fith, but not Without an obstinate resistance. The town offered a eonribution of eight millions of reals; and it is expected the Fteneh will evacuate it in a fna days, (^ olonel Doyle- is with the army of Gen. Blake, the head- quarters of which are at Astorga. On the day the French entered Bilboa, Captain Towers, of the Iris, landed there, spiked 43 pieces of cannon, and destroyed 500 barrels of powdery but he had scarcely left the batteries before the French entered the town, and be with difficulty got off. It is. confirmed that on the 4th ult. Le Febre made a fresh attempt ou Saragossa, and entered the city with 14,000 men, but after a most sanguine conflict was driven out again with, the loss of from 4 to 5000 of his troops. The French garrison in Barcelona is said to have proposed to capitulate. A Gottenburgh Mail arrived yesterday; it only brings a repetition of the report of an eugngeme t in the Baltic, between the British and Russian fleets, in which the. latter were defeated ; but we fear that it is without any foundation. Private Letters received this, day from tlie Continent state, that, the ports of Holland were open for exportation of all goods to England, excepting bark, hides, and salt. It lias been clearly ascertained, by information re- ceived from the Officers lately taken in the Sylphe French brig of war, that'all letter; wKTeli" arrive in a y part of France, having the. oflicial stamp of the Transport Board upon them, are, by order of the French Government, immediately burnt. This shews that Bonaparte is deter- mined to. suffer those who have fougbt and bled in his ser- vice to linger out their days in confinement, for the sake of wreaking his vengeance on the comparatively few Eng- lishmen whom he has in his power. It is by the Transport Board alone that any negociaiion for the exchange of pri- soners can be opened". I11 cnnsequcncf of the great demand for marines, the militia were lately put on board the several prison- ships at the ports in their vicinity, to do the duty of marines; but Gover irveni hiving taken steps to strengthen this me- ritorious branch of the service, the militia have bee., de barked, and the marines have resumed their duty, to the great s Itisfaetion and advantage of the navy. Vest, rday the Annuity Plan, instituted by Government, commenced its operations Several Annuities were granted, and Stock transferred in lieu of them. HAYMARKET THEATRE.— A new musical farce, called Yes or no ? was 011 Wednesday evening brought out at this Theatre. It is said to be the first performance of a juvenile writer, is of the same flimsy texture with most of the new piee - s lately produced, but has some pretty poetry and music, the characters are drawn to suit the talents of the principal performers, and it was favourably received, and repeated last night with great applause. At Worcester Assizes, the action brought by. Sir John Cottrell, Bart. against Mr. Harris, late Steward to Mrs. Sarah Freeman, of Henley Park, Oxfordshire, an old Lady of immensely large property, both real and personal, to set a ide a codicil to her will, by which, afier bequeath iug one large estate to the plaintiff ' who, had she died in- testate, would have been her heir at law) and several an- nuities and other legacies, she bequeathed the remainder of her property, real and personal, to Mr. Harris. It ap- peared that Mrs. Freeman had made her will from a form giVen her by Mr. cowper, an attorney; that she kept it locked up for several years, but in her last illness she handed it to the defendant, who found it was very defective; in par- ticular, after her several bequests, - lie bad not left the resi- due of her property to any one. To remedy th'- s defect, Mr. Harrisdrew the codicil which ^ ave it to himself; the deceas- ed copied it in her own hand writing, and it was duly exe- cuted and attested. It. was contended by Sir Thomas Plome'r, the Counsel for the Defendant ( who spoke first, because he had the affirmative proposition to maintain) that the codicil was fair and . just. The earl of Malmesbury and other witnesses proved that Mr. Harris was much in the confidence of Mrs. Freeman, and were firmly of opinion that that Lady would not have been dictated to by him, if she had not intended that he should possess her estates. It was proved by a person who had been her confidential ser- vant, and by other persons who, were with her in her last illness, that she was in full possession of her senses on the day 011 which she executed the codicil, though her intellects appeared infirm two days before, tmd she again fell into a state of imbecility some . days after, which continued till her death. Mr. Garrow In. id.' a long and eloquent speech for the Plaintiff, and called the physician- aud surgeon who attended Mrs. Free- man in her last illness, and were attesting witnesses to the codicil, both of whom deposed that they did not think Mrs. Freeman of sound disposing mind when she executed' it ; that tli'ey thought it was meant merely to remedy some legal defects in the will, and had they been aware that it passed away her real estate, they would not have attested it. The < Jud » cj in summing up, expressed an opinion that it was impossible to overturn a codicil thus executed, and the Jury, after a short deliberation, found a verdict for the Defendant.— This is the second trial of the question, in both of which the Defendant has had a verdict. The trial lasted JJ3 hours, an adjournment for the night taking place in the midst of Mr. Garrow's speech. That gentleman and Sir T, Plomer attended on special retainers of 300 guineas each. At the Assizes for the county of Cumberland, James Wood was tried for the wilful murder of Margaret Smith and Jane Pattinson. It appear*! in evidence that the prisoner worked as a weaver for Mr. Smith ; that he was a depraved wretch who spent hi? earnings in liquor, and murdered his mistress and her - ister, with circumstances of great barbarity, merely to rob them of a small sum of money, with which he absconded, but was pursued and taken in Scotland. He was found Guilty, and executed on the following day ( the 25th. ult.) At Wells As'sizes, on Monday, Duncan Campbell, E- q. fligh Constable of Bathford. was tried for' Manslaughter AV Grand Jury • having thrown out a bill preferred by t\ ie parish of Weston, 011 the charge of murder} in firing a loaded pistol at Robert Strong, at Lansdown Revel, which caused hie death the third day ati. ee. . The evidsu. ee wits contradictory, the wines= es for the prosecution stating that the populace we're not riotous, till Mr. Campbell's violent interference produced a slight resistance to his authority. The witnesses for the prisoner said the conduct of the mob was very \ ialent. and that Mr. Campbell's life was in dan- ger therefrom. The trial lasted the whole day. The Jury found the prisoner guilty. He was sentenced to pay a fine of 51, a id to be imprisoned three months 111 tiie county Gaol. In passing sentence, the Judge observed, that Mr. Campbell n id brought ou the danger, which could alone justify the deed, by great temerity : he had 110 doubt of Mr. C.' s good intentions ; his interference. at the Revel was legal, but it was a severe and unnecessary enforce- ment of the law, and to have had pistols for the sake of such a. i enforcement of it, was extremely reprehen- sible. He had been properly found guilty, and had cause for severe reflection for . the remainder of his days. BIRTHS.] A few days since, at Badminton Park.

Sunday's Post. By Express. The London Gazette Extraordinary. (- Published an Saturday, September- 3 J DOWNING- STREET, September 2. DISPATCHES were last night received from Lieutenant- General Sir Harry iSujrard and Lieu- tenant- General Sir Arthur Wsllesley, brought by Captain Campbell, Aid- de- Camp to Sir Arthur Wellesley.. The amine details given jn the preceding page, and under the head of Port News, are fully confirmed by these di patches, and almost every important fact being there related, the following extrac ts from Sir A Wellesley 3 dis- patches are now only ne'ccwy. A letter from Sir A. W- ileslev, dated Head Quarters, Caldas, Aug. 16, relates a skirmish of advanced posts 011 that dav, In which hv the too grxat eagerness of the troops, sora men were lost. Lieut. Bunbury, of the 2d battalion of the 95th, was unfortunately among the killed, and the Hon. Cant. Packenham was slightly wounded. In another 1- tter, dated Villa Verde, Aug. IT, Sir Arthur Wellesley details, the action of that day, and states the force of the enemy to have been at least tiOOO men, of which about 500 were cavalry. The return of killed, wounded, and missing amounts to 4* 2 men, among whom are 4 officers killed. The columns being formed, the troops moved from Oebidu • about seven o'clock in the morning. The pas- es were 11 difficult of access, and some of them were well defended by the euernv, particularly thit which was at- tacked bv the 29th and 9th regiments. Tiiese regiments attacked with the greatest impetuosity, and reached the enemy before those'whese attacks were to be made on the'r flank ; • the defence of the enemy was desperate, and it was in this attack principally that we sustained the lo; s we have to lament, particularly of that gallant officer the Hon Lieut.- Col. Lake, who distinguished himself upon this occasion. . The enemy was, however, driven from all the positions lie had taken in the passes of the mountains; but he suc- ceeded in effecting his retreat in good order, owing, prin- cipally to my want of cavalry. In a letter dated August 18, Sir A. Wellesley relates the landing of Brigadier- General Austruther. The following is given in a letter from Sir Arthur Wel- le-. L- y to Sir Harry Burrard, dated Vimiera, August 21 :— The enemy attacked us in our position at Vimiera this morning, with all his force. ., , . , The enemy first appeared at eight o'clock m the morn- in » , in large bodies of cavalry, on our left, upon the heights on the road to Lourinha; and it was soon obvious that the attack would be made upon our advanced guard, ami the left of our position. The enemy's attack began in several columns upon the whole of the troops on the height to the southward and eastward of the town; 011 the left they advanced, not- withstanding the fire of the riflemen,' close to the 50th regiment, and were checked and driven back only by the bayonets of that corps. At length, after a most desperate contest, the enemy was driven back in confusion from this attack, with the loss of seven pieces of canon, many prisoners, and a great number of officers and soldiers killed 6nd wounded. He was pursued by the detachment of the 20th light dragoon);, but the enemy's cavalry were so much superior in number; that this detachment has suffered much, and Lieut. Colonel Taylor was unfortunately killed. ill this action, in which the whole of the French force in Portugal was employed under the. command of the Duke D'Abrantes in person, in which the enemy was certainly superior in cavalry and artillery, and in which not more than half of the British army was actually engaged, he has sustained a signal defeat, and has lost l( i pieces of cannon, 23 ammunition waggons, with powder, shells, stores of all descriptions, and 20,000 rounds of musket ammunition.— One general officer ( Beniere) has been wounded and taken prisoner, and a great many officers and soldiers have been killed, wounded, and taken.

A letter was this morning posted at Lloyd's, staling in substance that Junot with his army had de- camped from Lisbon, and . was attacked on the 24th ult. bv the British, and totally defeated, with the loss of 5000 men; and that 03. waggons, laden with plate and other valuables, the plunder of Lisbon, had fallen into our hands.— This account requires confirmation. Intelligence of the surrender of Juuot and thelius- siati fleet may, however, be hourly expected. After such a defeat he could hardly think of any further re- sistance, by which he could at the utmost only pro- tract his surrender for a few days. Government have received accounts that General Reding had advanced to Madrid, and that Castanos was shortly expected there, for the purpose of making arrangements for tire establishment of a general Go- vernment. The Cortez were expected to meet on the 19th of September. Ferdinand VII. was to be proclaimed King at Madrid 011 the 27 th ult. Lord Cochrane has, we understand, succeeded in conveving the Spanish regiments of the line stationed in Majorca, from that island to the Continent; a service which cannot fail to be highly appreciated fav- our allies. Oviedo Gazettes to the 26th nit. and those of Madrid to the 18th, have come to hand. The accounts from Co- runna state, that the French have left Burgos ; and letters from Palafox, of the 13th, announce, that the enemy had attacked him the day before, but had been'repulsed. . FALMOUTH, Sept. I. The Duke of Marlborough packet arrived yesterday from Malta, Sicily, Gibraltar, & e. She left Sicily about the middle of July, when Sir John Stuart was preparing to embark with 10,000 British and 12,000 Sicilian troops for some part'of the continent of Italy. Com motions still continued in Calabria, and had spread to the adjoining country. When the Marlbo- rough left Gibraltar ( loth ult.). Sir Hew Dalrymple sailed in the Phoebe frigate, accompanied bv about 1000 men, to take the Command in Chief of the British forces in Portugal. The Carteret packet, fi- tn Corunna, and the Black Joke lugger, from Gijon, arrived yesterday. By the latter we have accounts of t!; e French having failed in another attack on Saragossa. It is said great numbers of the enemy were blown up by a train of gunpowder laid in their way. BRIXHAM, Sept.- 2. Arrived on Tuesday last from Portsmouth, the Forester brig, with a small fleet under convoy bound for Spain, put in here by contrary winds. Arrived also on Tuesday night, about eleven o'clock, the fleet from of ushaut, untie* the command of Vice Admiral Sir J. T. Duckworth, consisting of'the following ships: Royal George, Dreadnought, Neptune, Temeraire, LaTi- gre, Pompee, Valiant, and Achille, of the line ; Naiad fri- gate, and the Nimrod and Betsy cutters. Arrived on Wednesday, from a cruise, the Fervent gun- biif. Sailed the Naiad frigate 011 a- cruise. The Neptune and Pompee are ordered for the Mediterranean, and will sail the first opportunity. PLYMOUTH, Sept. 2. On Saturday came in the St, George, of 93 guns, Rear- Admiral Harvey, to victual and relit. On Monday came in L'Espoir, a French schooner, from Bourdeaux hound to L'Orient, with naval stores, captured by the Shannon frigate. On Wednesday came in the Prueba Spanish frigate, of 44 guns, from Corunna, with a Spanish messenger charged with dispatches for Government; she has also onboard 150 troops, with which she is bound to Buenos Ayres. During the gale the preceding day she carried away her main- yard. Came in the Phoenix, of 36 guns, from a cruize; Plo- ver and Surinam, of 18 guns each, from a cruize; Reso- lution letter of marque, from Madeira; Alphea cutter, from Cadiz, with dispatches; Peacock, of 18 guns, from figuera, with dispatches, of importance, which were for- warded immediately for London. They relate to the operations of the army under the command of Sir Arthur Wellesley on the 15th, 16th, and 17 th ult. It appears that on the first day they had some slight skirmishing with the French, in which they lost 2 Officers and about 20 men, killed, wounded, and prisoners; that on the 16th the army halted, and* on the 17th they had some very hard fighting, in which the British troops were annoyed by means of masked batteries, but they forced the French to retreat about seven miles towards Lisbon, with consider- able loss In kjlled and wounded, and 2 pieces of cannon : the British loss was also very great; the 29tn and 45th regiments had about 300 men killed, wounded, and taken prisoners. Among the Officers that suffered in the several actions were Lieut. Col. Lake, killed:— Majors Way and Egerton, wounded ; Capt. Todd, prisoner ; Capt. Hodge, wounded; Lieut. Birmingham, killed, all of the 2,9th regiment;— Col. Stuart, killed; Major Molloy, wounded, 9th regiment:— Lieut. Morhir and Ensign Dawson, killed, 45th regiment:— Capt. Geary, Artillery, and Capt. Brad- ford, 3d Guards, killed; Lieut. Bunbury, killed; Capt. Packenham, wounded. On the 20th instant, Junot had drawn all his forces from Lisbon, and was in sight of Sir Arthur Wellesley's army the whole day : on the 21st, the two armies were generally engaged, and the battle was expected to lie decisive. For- tunately, about two hours before the battle, the British and Portuguese troops were joined by Generals Acland and Anstruahcr, with 5000 men, who had just arrived at IVu- cipe, with the St. Alban's man of war, and had not been encamped five hours. Sir Harry Burrard had also joined and taken the command of the army; and the troops under General . Moore were proceeding from Figuera to Peneipe, having been sent for by express. The Kangaroo sloop of war was waiting to bring the result of the battle. The Portuguese are said to have Behaved very w* ll, and that all the French that fell in tiieir way they put to the sword. The battle of the 21st was lighting at the villages' of Lorenzo and Mezeitee, and will, 110 doubt, be a very destructive one ; the issue of which will be soon kniJwn. OnThursday arrived the Orestes, from Cadiz, and Lisbon, with dispatches : she left the latter place the 24th ult. and brings an account of the action of the 21st, between the armies of General WeUesley and Junot, which commenced at four o'clock in the morning and did not end until near eleven at night: it was fought with great obstinacy on both sides, and the loss- on the part of the French is said to be 2300 killed and 600 prisoners, besides two Generals killed, and two others prisoners, who are coming to England. The British and Portuguese are said to have lost 1500 men, and many officers. The attack w as made by Junot, who has retreated towards Lisbon. Came in the Black Joke lugger, from Gijon : she brings an account of the French having attacked Saragossa, with 15,000 men, in which they were so completely defeated, that only 300 men are said to have escaped, and that all tilt1 others were killed. Camu in the Favorite cutter, from Corunna, who brings an account of the French having re- entered Bilboa, and that the Spaniards have been defeated there, with the lass of 1500 men; and that the French committed every brutal excess on the unfortunate inhabitants, sparing neither age nor sex. Also came in the hindostan, of 50 guns, from off Lisbon. PORTSMOUTH, Sept. 3. The Forester sloop of war, which sailed on Monday for Spain and Portugal, had 500,000 dollars on board for the use of our patriotic: allies, and the payment of our troops. On Thursday Major Brown arrived in the Kangaroo sloop of war, from Lisbon, bearing dispatches from Sir Ar- thur Wellesley, announcing the important and decisive victory obtained over the French army in Portugal. The Major, 011 first lauding, could obtain only a pair of horses; but was soon accommodated by a party travelling in two chaises and four to Fareham with a pair of their leaders, and then set off with his dispatches for London. A French General, wounded in the thigh, and a Colonel, taken prisoners by Sir Arthur W'ellesley's army, arrived here yesterday ' from Lisbon,, ill the St. Alban's.
