MY LORD, Placentia, 15th Jufu, 1809. After t had written to your Lordship on the Ist instant, Joseph Buena parte crossed the Tagus again, and joined Sebastiani with the troops he had brought from Aladrid, and with a de tachment from Marshal Victor's corps, makinA the corps of Se basiiatai about twenty-eight thousand men, with an intention of ;Clarkin, Vanegas' corps. Vanegas, however, retired into the mountains of the Sierra Aloretia, and Colonel Lamy with his advanced gwird attacked a French advanced corps in the night, and destrty , d army of them. The French tro,ips then returned again to the 'fagus, which river Joseph had crossed with the t.laforcAnctit which he had taken to Sebastiani's corps; and this last corps, consisting of ten thousand men only, was on the left hank of the Tagus, about Nladnelejos, in front of Vanegas, who was ng.l in advancing. The last accounts from this quarter were o f tie Bth. The French Army under Victor, joined by ere !eta !totems brought by Joseph from Sehastiani's corps, and a 8601.. ting in the whole to about thirty-five thousand men, are es Ice. , trated in the neighbourhood of Talavera, and on the Ailterche; Generol Cuesta's Army has been in the position which I informed your Lordship that it had taken up since 1 addremed AUG. 13. you on the Ist inst. The advanced guard of th.s British Army arrived here on the Bth, hold the troops which %vete with me on the Tagus arrived by the 10th ; thetid Light Dragoons and the 4 - 111 arrived yesterday ; the 61st Regiment will artiv.! to morrow. I went to General Cuesta's Quarters at Almara on the 10th, and stayed there till the 12th, and I have arranged with that general a plan of operations upon the French army, which we are to begin to carry iatt; execution on the 15th, if the French should remain so long in their position. The Spanish army under Genet al Cuesta consists of about thirty-eight thousand men, (exclusive Of VallegßS% corps) of vs hick seven thousand are cavalry. About fourteen thousand men are detached to the bridge of Arzohispo, and the remainder are in the camp under the I'uerte de Mirabete. 1 have the pleasure to inform your Lordship, that the seven battalions of infantry from Ireland and the Islands, andtl , e troop of horse artillery fioni Great Britain, arrived at Lisbon in the beginning of the month.

MY LORD,— Accordingto the arrangement which 1 had set tit..o with General Cuesta, the Army broke up from Placentia on the 17th and pith instant, and reached Oropesa on the 20th, w here it formed a junction with the Spanish army under his command. Sir Robert Wilson had marched from the Yenta de Bartgoa; on the Tietar, with the Lusitanian Legion, a battalion of Por tuguese Chasseurs, and two Spanish baitalious on the 15th ; he arrived at Arenas on the 19th, and on the Alberche, at Esca lona, on the 23d. General Vanegas had also been directed to break up from Madrileyos on the 18th and 19th, and to ?march by Trenhleque and Ocana to Puenteduenas on the Tagns, where that river is crossed by a ford, and thence to Arganda, where he was to fir• rive on the 2itl and 23d. On the 22d, the combined armies moved from Oropesa, and the advanced guards attacked the enemy's outposts at Talavera. Their right was turned by the Ist hussars and the 23d Light Dragoons under General Anson, directed by Lieutenant-General Payne, and by the division of infantry under the command of Major-General Mackenzie, and they were driven in by the Spanish advanced guards under the command of General Sarjas and the Duc d'Albuquerque. We lost eleven horses by the fire of cannon from the enemy's fiositio,t) the Aiherche, and the Spaniards had tiqme men wounded. The columns were formed for the attack of this position yesterday but the attack was postponed till this morning by desire of Gen. Cuesta, when the different corps destined for t he attack were put in motion, hut the enemy had retired at about one in the morn ing to Santa (Yalta, and thence towards Torrijos; L conclude tu .form a junction with the corps under General Sebastiani. 1 have not been able to follow the enemy as I could wish on account of the great deficiency of means of transport in Spain. I enclose the copy of a letter, which I thought it proper to address upon tkis sullject to Major-General . O'Donoghue, the Adjutant-General of the Spanish army, us soon as I found that this country would furnish no means of this desc General Cuesta has urged the Central Junta to adopt vigorous measures to relieve our wants: WI lam supplied, I do not think it proper, and indeed I cannot, continue my operations. 1 have great hopes, however. that before long 1 shall be supplied front Andalu,ia and La Mancha with the means which I require, and I shall then resume the active operntions which I have been compelled to relinquish. 1 have the honour to he, &c. &e.

G. Head-Quarters, Middelburg, August 7th, 1809. MY Loan,—Nothing very material 'has occurred since my last dispatch of the 3d inst. We have been unremittingly em ployed iti bringing up the artillery of siege, ammunition and stores to the vicinity of Flushing, and the troaps have been oc cupied in the con-truction of the batteries, and in carrying on the several works before the place, but which have been neces" sarily interrupted by the eery heavy rains which have fallen here. The enemy is active and enterprising, and the garrison has certainly received considerable reinforcements from the op posite coast; nor has it been hi the power of the flotilla hi therto to prevent it.
