She describes the wife of a mariner, and with a ready-made lale of woe,excites thecom- iniseraliou and charily of the people in even town through which she passes. Last week she was at Llangollen, where she said her husband had been impressed at Liverpool, and that she. was raising 80/ to procure his dis- charge. She carries with her a written peti- tion, in it staled, that 40/. had been collected lor her in Chester, and that Ihe cash is lodged ill the hands of Mr. Parry, book- seller, under whose direction she was going to Anglesey. We trust, from the very exten- sive circulation of ihe NORTH WALES GA ctl e ZETTE tbronghOut the Principality, that this will operate as a caution — We had nearly omitted mentioning,that at flaiigollen chapel, a small collection was made for .-tlie woman, wilh which she irnmedialely decamped. It is supposed she is a native of Llanberris, in Car- narvonshire; she is a lusty woman, short in statute, but has a very bold and confident ap pearance. The lively interest excited in Denbighshire, for establishing an Auxiliary Bible Societv for that county, (seeadvl. 2nd page) leads, as to anlicipal a very numerous and respectable attendance of Ladies and Gentlemen at I be in- tended meeting. The objects of the Pafen i Institution so grand, and at the same tune so simple, have found warm supporters among the regular Clergy, who will no doubt contri- bute materiaHy to the success of he pro posed Auxiliary Institution, which is likely to flourish under the patronage of several dis tiuguished characters.

In their retreat from this position the eneiny lost a great number of prisoners. I cannot sufficiently, applaud the conduct of ail the general officers, officers, and troops throughout these, opera huus. The attack made by the, Earl of Dal. housie was admirably conducted by his Lord- ship, and executed by Major Gen. Tnglis and the troops composing his brigade and that by Major Gen. the Hon. 15.

White these ope- rations were going on, and in proportion as 1 ,o,l) 9 r v ed I It e 1 r s,,j me,. <>.bser\ed their success, I detached troops to the support of Sir II. Hill. The enemy ap- peared in his front iate in the morning, and i in mediately commenced an extended ma nteuvre up#n his left flank, which obliged him to wilhdraw from a height which he oc pied behind the Lizasso to the next range.— He there, however, maintained himself, and I enclose his report of the conduct of the troops.

The y wi t hd rew fro 111 his front in thenfht, and yesterday took up a strong position, with two divisions, lo cover their rear in the nassof Dona Maria. Sir Rowland Hill, and tlie Earl of Dalhousie, attacked and carried the pass, notwithstanding the vigorous resistance ol the enemy rand the strength of their, position I am concerned to add that Lieut. Qen Hon. William Stewart was wounded upon fins occasion. I enclose jLieut Gen, Sir Rowland Hill's report. In the mean time I moved Wllh Major Gea. Byng's brigade and the 4th divi- sion under Sir Lowry Cole, by the pass of Ve late upon Irurita, in order to turn the enemy's position on Dona Maria. Major Gen. Byn took, in Elizondo, a large convoy going- u, the enemy, and made many prisoners. We have this day continued the pursuit of I he enemy in the valley of the Bidassoa, and many Prisoners and much baggage have been taken. Major Gen. Byng has possessed himself of the Galley of Baslan, and of the position on the PUCflo de Maya, and the army will be tbin night nearly in Ihe same positionswhich they J'ccqpied on the 25U July I trust that Isi's '1' H. the Prince Reenl will be satisfied with ,tiC ¡,nd,,c! oj ¡ he tr,,(\'s..f his Majesty, and ofhis Allies on this occasion. Til(I etieniy having been cons iderabiy reinforced and re equipped after their late defeat, made a most formidable attempt to relieve the blockade of Panipc-luna with the whole of their forces, ex- the reserve under General Villatte, j winch remained ia front of our troops on ihe j great road from I run. This al'empt has been entirely frustrated hy the operations of a part only of t'.e allied army. an,I the enemy have sustained a defeat and a severe loss in b<>tii oiffcers and men. The enemy's ex pertations of success, beyond the point of raising Ihe blockade of Pampeltma, were cer- tainly very sanguine. They brought into Spain a large body of cavalry, and a great of, I Illls, lieitlibr of which arm's could lie used lo any great extent by either parly in the battle which took place. They sent- off, .the guns to St. Jean de Pied de Port ou the evening of the 28tb, which have thus returned to France iti 'safety.

I have already mentioned the conduct of the regiments of Pravia and El Pr ncipe, belonging to the army of reserve of Andalusia, in a most trying siluai ion and the whole corps appeared animaled by the sallie zealous spirit which pervaded all the troolis in that position. Marshal Sir W. Beresford was wsth me throughout these operations,and 1 received from hail all the assistance which his talents so well qualify him in afford me. 1 he good conduct of the Portuguese officers and troops in all the operations of the present campaign, and the spirit which they shew on every occasion, are not less honourable to that nation, than they are to Ihe military character of tlie officer; who, by his judicious measures, has re-established discipline and revived a military .spirit in the army. 'I have again to draw your Lordship's attention* to the valuable assistance t received throughout these operations from the Quarter Master Ge uerai Major Gen.

My LORD, J/rhj 31, 1813. I have the satisfaction to acquaint YOIP Lordship that, although from the immense su- periority of force, which the cllemy directed against the position entrusted to my charge, yesterday it became in my opinion,imperiously necessary for me to retire from that g,-rotsiid- the conduct of Ihe officers and troops, British and Portuguese, was such as to entitle.them to my entire approbation, and I could not have wished it to he better. Major Gen. Priugle, with Major Gen. Walker's, brigade, under Lt. kol. Fitzgerald, of the 60th regiment, sup- ported by the 34th regiment,and 14lh Portu- guese regiment opposed the ascent oftbeene my to the ridge on the left of the position, in a most gallant style; drove iiiiii back, and although unable ultimately to'pre- vent him from ascending lite ridge, hy a Irlore distant movement, our troops kept thetr ground firmly, and when ordered to retire. pcrformed It. under Major Gen. Pruigle, with the greatest regularity, and with small loss, 11 It covered by a battalion of the 14th Portuguese regiment, under Lieut. Col. M scdonald, of the conduct of which officer, and the steadiness of his regiment, the Major Gen. speaks in terms I of the greatest praise. Colonel Ashworlh's brigade, also attacked in his position by a superior force, metlhe attack \%ith the greatest steadinesss, and drove file enemy before hill) at the point of thehayo net, and held his g-rouild as long as I thought t prudent for him to do so; and a battalion of Brig. Gen.

Gen. Costa, and finally driven down 'he ridge at the point of the bayonet by that battalion, a part of Colonel Ash worth s bri- gade, and a small detachment of the 28th re- giment. On the whole, I can assure your Lordship that ihe enemy had nothing to boast of, nor was our loss severe, considering the disparity of our forces. i feel particularly indebted to Major Gen. Priugle for bis conduct on this occasion, as well as to Col. AsiiworUi, Col. O'Callaghan, and Lieut Col.

On our arrival at the foot of the pass, we (lie elle. my ascending the hill ia great haste, and closely pressed by the I ii division., moving by a road paraliel and to the right of that which my eolainn .was on, The rear of the enemy's column having began to ascend ihe hills befoie our arrival, if. was t;, was, however, cCJnsiderdhly annoyed on its inarch h} one-nine-pounder and a howitzer. [ immediately ordered the 2d division, under Lieut. General Sievvart, to ascend the bill by the road we were on, whilst the Earl of Dalhousie's column as- cen(led by one more to, the right.

Barnes' brigade was formed for the attack,, and advanced, before the foul lh and light divisions could co-operate with a regu- larity and gallantry which 1 have seldom seei equalled, and actually drove the two division: ol the enemy, notwithstanding the resistance op- posed to them, from those formt lable heights. I* is impossible that [ can extol too highly the conduct of Major <ren. Barnes, and Ihese brave i roops, which was the admiration of all who were witnesses of i t. Major (Jen.

The attack of the hreaeh in fhe line wallon Ihe left flank of San Sebastian's, took place on the mbrning of (he 25th, when the fall of the tide (lie foot of the wall dry, which was soon after day-light. I am sorry to say, that not- withstanding ilie distinguished, gallantry of the troops employed, some of whom did force their way into the town, the attack did not sncceed,- The enemy occupied in force all the defences of the place which looked that way, and from which and from all round the breach, tliev were enabled to so destructive a lire of grape and mus- ketry, flanking and enfilading the column, and to throw over so many hand-grenades on the troops that It hecame necessary to desist from the as- sault. The 10" sustained was therefore severe, especially hy the third battalion Royal Scots, the leading one of Major-General Hay's brigade, which being on duty in 1he trenches, formed the column of attack. Major-General Spry's Por- tuguese brigade, that of Major-General Robui- n, and the 4th Cacadores of Brigadier-General Wilson's being in reserve in the trenches; the whole under the direction of Major-General Os- wald, com uanding the 5th division. Though this attack h;is tailed, it would he great injustice not to assure your Lordship, f hat the troops con- ducted themselves with their usual gallantry,anu only ret ired, wben I thought a further perseve- rance in the attack would have occasioned a use- j less sacrifice of brave men..
