Carllst Victory. London, 14, Herald Special. A battle woa fought it Puerta de Erault, near Stella in Navarre, on May 5io, which was most important, and was a complete victory for Dorrogaray. .Four days previously the Uarlist troops were surprised at Pera C'errado, by a government govern-ment column, and retreated with the i greatest precipitation towards the mountains, and the government forces, co-operating, joined in pur-sait; pur-sait; thus live columns, encouraged by the Carlists' flight, pursued them with such energy that Dorregaray during dur-ing eixty hours could give his command but twelve hours rest. Cn the fourth day the Carlists troops were completely broken down, but the government troops irere left far behind, excepting one column under Col. Kovarra, composed com-posed of regular troops with a battery of artillery. Dorregaray contrived to turn suddenly, probably to deliver a blow to cripple this force. He consequently conse-quently formed line of battle at Puerta de iCrauIt, on a range of low hills partly covered with scrub oaks and chap-paral. chap-paral. He had about 3,000 men in position. The centre was commanded by Tji.arrago, tha left by Elio and tbe right by Dorregaray. The government troops on coming up occupied occu-pied higher ground, which gave their artillery command of the Carlist position and to sweep the ground between. Tho Carlists had no artillery. The skirmishers skir-mishers of the government troops ielt the Carliet lines for some hours, At three o'clock in the afternoon the government gov-ernment troops advanced, handsomely supported by a fire from their battery, which, alihoufiU not very tlestrucuvo, mado the Carlists, who have exaggerated exaggera-ted respect for cannon, very uneasy, evon while doing little harm. When the government advance hrst came within with-in range, Lizarrago'a men opened from the chapparal and bushes an exceedingly exceed-ingly destructive fire, which staggered the line, broka the advance force, and compelled them to relinquish that part of the ground already gained: but the troops preserved perfect order, and the skirmish lino kept the fellows in the chapparal busy. When battle was en-gagtd en-gagtd at this point, Elio, who had overlapped over-lapped the government right, made his way through the chapparal, thus getting get-ting well on the flank of theforcosin front of Lizaraago, and peppered away to Borne purpose, keeping his men mostly under cover. The right continued contin-ued on the-e terms, the exchange of tho musketry tire for tho playingof'the government gov-ernment battery, for nearly an hour, both sides losing quito a number of men. Meanwliilo Dorregaray, preparing prepar-ing for an effective stroke, had a body of chosen cavalry composed entirely of young men of Catholic families, mostly cadets of tho Hasquo nobility, commanded com-manded by marquis Valdespiua, put in position. There was some trouble in getting the force m position to charge tho battery, but finally, at four o'clock, the cavalry wai ready, and colonel Ro-das' Ro-das' battalion was also prepared to advance ad-vance with bayonet, against the government govern-ment left, the samo battalion that was charged so splondidly at the battle near W ich. The signal was given for a simultaneous eharge and an advance along the whole lino, which resulted in a tremendous belter and skelter charge, tho cavalry on the most dillicult ground, an obstinate but shert band to hand combat between Rod as' men and the government troops, when the latter broke and lied in a complete rout in every direction, to the mountains moun-tains and villages, to getaway from the cavalry. Valdespina had a buyonet thrust in his arm. A number of cavalry cav-alry were killed, and two captains were wounded. The cavalry captured ono cannon, carriage aud caisson; they had two others but it was impossible to get the guns away by the mountain path beforo night, when they were compelled to retire. They also captured four chief officers of the republicans and sixty-lour subaltern officers and privates- Tho Carlist loss in killed and wounded is one hundred and fifty. |
