Ballesteros lauds his troops, but French forces push toward Madrid and Seville, with Morillo’s loyalty wavering and Madrid possibly to fall as King Ferdinand contemplates return.

Reports agree the grain price rise stems from a harsh winter and late spring. Autumn wheat failed in many areas, wet cold conditions delayed vegetation, and a late harvest will exhaust current stock before next year’s crop. Prices may climb further if the next harvest is short, or ease if yields rise, though bread corn could be cheaper than in recent years.
