a disposition to advance against Tartlra by the Pass of Lapina• The Tuscan, with the gun-boat, Nu. 14, and 'lie whulii of the Stately's bitats, under the command of the First Lieutenant Da vis, took up their anchorage close to the beach, and from a smart tiring kept up during the night, the enemy was not able to pass. Next morning, after some mucenvring, they marched back, and we have not seen them since. This morning Col. Skerritt, wish all the troops, -is marching after them. The easterly gale still blows hard, but hitherto we have all rode it out very well ; and I have great pleasure in reporting to you, Sir, that the exertions of Captains Shepherd and Jones, also Lieutenant Davis, of the Stately, with petty officers and seamen, in landing the stores and guns, meet my warmest acknowledgment. I have the honour to he, &c. (Signed) G. S. DICKSON, Captain. To the Hon. A. K. I egge, Rear-Admiral, &c. Extract of a Letter from Commodore nrose to John Wilson Croker, Esq. dated on board his Majesty's ship San Juan, at Gibraltar, Oct. '2O. I haVe little to add for their Lordships' information since my last letter by the Woolwich. The French greatest force has been ten thousand under Gen. Gudinot, drawn from a great variety of piaces, and only three small howitzers. A british force of one thousand infantry, and a detachment of artillery, has arrived at Tariffa ; but a strong reinforcement of Spanish troops has been prreentql from getting up to that place by the fresh easterly gates, which prevent any attempt being made to drive the enemy trolli his position. The inhabitants of San Roque are all under the protection of the guns of the garrison, and those of Algeziras are retired to the island and shipping. A detachment of British troops garrison that island ; a few dragoons have entered the town, Out retired again directly. I have no►v four gun-boats guarding the shore of the hav, and and they prove of the greatest use in keeping the enemy fi o:n the coast.
