E NAT •thcr particulars of this memorable battle, we refer to the Offi cial account, because in letter' there is always some differepte In the relati ni,however well founded in fact. " The Spaniards are 'aid to have refused quarter to the French, and put every man to the sword that came in their way." The following is an extract of a letter from Lis bon, dated May 18: " On receipt of the intelligence that SOULT had united all his troops in the neighblurhood of Seville, and was marching on Badajoz, Generals BEKESFORD, BLAKE, and CAS FANos, held a Council of War at Valverde, and came to the determination of removing the large park of artillery employed in the siege of padajoz, and sending it to Elvas for security's sake, leaving 12,000 men before Badajoz, and with the remainder to march against nou LT. This plan has had the happiest results, and the *tory has remained on our side. 66 Mr. FORBES is just arrived from Bilboa, which he left the 4th inst. The people of Biscay are more and more animated. •The few persons who had emi•raced the French party are now seeking pardon from our Government, since King JosEru has returned to France wish Ifs friends. Let us see what the Tyrant will next undertake, finding be has totally failed in Spain. and that his brother has been unable to maintain himself there. Let us see how the few Spa niards will justif,• themselves who sided with the French, when these latter attempted to subdue and oppress us. • It is wished that the English would mete a landing at St. Se bastians, and siist the two provinces of Navarre and Biscay, which .:re both well inclined. We have recently seen two par ties of Guerillas, headed by EsPuz and MDIA, penetrate eleven leagues into France, where they were well received by the inha bitants. The English might carry on a great contraband commerce with France on the whole coast from St..Sebastians, from which they would derive much honour and advantage. You will already have received the agreeable tidings that the Catalonians havf possessed themselves of the strong fortress of st. Fernando de Eigueras. The French have sent all their heavy artillery from Bayonne farther bad: into France. N. w York Papers to the sth of May have arrived. The federal interest appears to be gaining ground in that State, and we shall soon expect to hear that it is extending to the. southward. The advocates for French connection in preference to English are • upon the decrease d ; and it is not improbable, that alter a few months experience of the advantages of the former, we shall hear that this unnatural par tiality is wholly confined to Maryland and Virgi nia, the principal focus of hostility to this country. There are strong complaints in these papers of the countenance and accommodation given to 'Trench cruisers by the American Government. A private letter from an Aid-de-Camp of Marshal BF:la:swap, states, that the battle of the 16th was obstinately contested for six hours and a half, and that the defeat of the French was cornpltte. Ano ther account mentions, that the whole medical staff fell into our. hands, and that the loss on both sides was extremely great., We have also heard that we have lost some valuable officers of the royal artil lery set vipg before Badajoz, in an attempt made by the enemy to ob3ige the British to raise the siete. 347 Paris Papers to the 3d instant, given in another part of our paper, contain Nl4sse.NA's account of the late actions in the neighbourhood of Almeida. Milking the necessary allowances for the exalt y. ra tions and suppressions to which he might neb-essa rily be supposed to have rec3nrse, in order to give his defeat the colour cf a victory, the report is a to lerably faithful narntive of the transactions. It ge nerally .ci incides with Lord WEI.4I,NoTo.N's dis patches as to the movements of the two armies, though it differs with respect to their result. i SEN a acknowledge that the French were frequently driven out of the important post if Fuent g de Ho nor; and ullimately,confesses, but in an incidental manner, that it remained in our possession. The French Papers state, that the Spanish Gene ral CAMPO VERDE has fai . ed in an endeavour to throw reinforcements and supplies into • the fort of Figuerts. The whole of the tter are stated to have fallen into die hands of the enemy, and the loss of the Spaniards is represented as enormous. Alt Eng lish coNtrin is said to have I ind?d near Rosas dun- . jog the action ; but to have been kept in died: by the garrison of that place. This column was most likely - a few marines ar.d seamen who landed from our cruizers on that part of the crw-A. The riim , ,ur of a marriage between FEItDiVAND the Vllth, and the second daughter of the E ror FRANCIS, is again noticed in letters received nit Friday from France. The restoration of FERDI. NAND to his Throne, it was supposed, would pre cede this: union.

We received on Thursday German papers to a late date. They contain a State paper issued by the King of the two Sicilies, and signed by his Minister, the Mii: - quis Circelle, in which his Ma jesty observes, that some malevolent persons at Palermo and Messina have circulated scandalous. reports of a pretended peace having been made be tween him and the French, and asserting that the conditions are, the restitution of the Kingdom of Naples, on the part of the French, prcvided the troops of the latter oeoapy Sicily. These reports are solemly affirmed io be unfounded, in a deciara tion transmitted to Lord Amherst, the British Mi nister at the Court of Pale• mo, which contains protestations . of the unalterable friendship of his Sicilian .atjesty for Great Britain.
