The enthusiasm foi the new sys tem increases in proportion to the tacles which are raised against it, and neither t mgress of OM rortlism in Catalonia, •aublep an nor the alarming reports w pleasure in spreading , o f an a foreign in vasion, can diminish this entbstaliasm:ma4 thmineaks. l minatioti to support the new instkialintss Malevolence has spread a report, that the King Lad refused to convoke the Comes: there appears to have been no foundation fetthis repott, and there is more reason to believe thee his Majesty acceded to the measure with the same indifference that he daily assents to many others that are pliposed to him. However, people in general expect a favourable re sult from the approaching session, and latter them ,selves that entire harmony will prevail between the Cortes and the Government. • Great activity is observed in thfriffices of the several Ministers. The interest of the loan is regularly paid in the capital, amidst all the embarrassments which the Government experiences at this usonsiint • r ANCONA, SEPT. learn from Naples that the Carbonari implicated in the conspiracy of Mont forte, which began the revolution of Naples, are to , be immediately brought to trial. It is supposed that 14.9 individuals will be condemned to math. Important news is still expected frail thM coast of the Morea. The Greek fleet, 90 ma. strong, has appeared there, with fire-ships built in America. , The expedition of Chsurschid Pacha in the Mores appears to have failed; he has even evacuated Co rinth, and is retreating on Thalia and Larissa. Napoli di Romania is still in the hands of the Turks, the English vessels which were to transport the garrison not having arrived. FRONTICRS OF MOLDAVIA, A VG. 28.—The Turk ish troops have set tire to Toksan, a considerable town of Walachia. Some Greeks have been asaas aiStatt.d at Bucharest. The Hospodara who have come back to this town have written to their emi grant friends, advising them not to return. The Hoepodar of Walachia was to leave Constantinople on the 20th of August. PARIS, SEPT. 24.—His Grace the Duke of Wel lington set off on Sunday morning for Vienna. His health compels him to trav‘l by short stages, and to stop every night to sleep. The last advices from Vienna are dated the 15th inst. His Excellency the French Minister of Fn. reign Affairs, it appears, will not set out on Lie re. turn to Paris until the beginning of October. A letter from Lyons states, that on the 13th inst. two pollee commissaries want to the Masonic Lodge, called Memphis, at Pilate, and took away all the lists, papers, registers, &c. of the Society. This was done in consequence of an order front the Mi nister dthe Interior. We have received the fidlowing intelligence from St. Sebastian, dated Sept. 16th, by an extraordinary conveyance:—" The Trappist and Quesada, with about 6;000 men, had a combat on the 12th, with the Constitutionalists in the vicinity of Baclosteo. After thirteen hours' fighting, the latter were beaten, and put to Sight. A column of their army, about 500 strong, succeeded in getting into Ye nasque ; the Trappist pursued them thither, and summoned the garrison to surrender in twenty-four hours, otherwise lie would put every man to the sword, and burn the town. Whilst this chief was thus engaged, Quesada pursued the Constitutional ists, who had retreated on the route to Tremp. " It is added that Baron D'Eroles, having been attacked in the neighbourhood of Urge!, had routed the Constitutionalists, and taken 300 prisoners,Whom he had marched to Seo." CORVNNA,Serr. 4 —M. the Duke de l'lnfantado arrived here yesterday, to give a new proof of his obedience to the orders of his Catholic Majesty, whom he solicited, in a spirited representation, to allow him to retire, or to go to Portugal. EXECUTION OF GENERAL ELIO. _ repeat the live the Extract of a letter from a Liberal at Valencia, dated Sept. 4:—" The infamous Gen. Elio has, at length, suffered the pain of death (by the garotte.) His execution took place this morning, at I t o'clock, atter having been publicly divested of his rank and honours. The General was not condemned on ac count of his conduct as Captain-General, bat in consequence of the revolt of the cannoniers who occupied the tort of Valencia, on the 30th of May. Being tried before an ordinary Court-Martial, on the 2d of June, at which General Villa-Campa pre sided, he was, on the 27th of August, adjudged to the most ignominious death known to the Spanish laws, that of the garotte. This sentence, submitted to the Auditor of War to be revised, was not only approved, gist the Auditor demanded its immediate execution, conformably to the martial law of the 17th April, 1821. The arrival of the Brigadier Espina, who was provisionally invested with the mi litary command of this district, was regarded as the signal for the execution. If it had been retarded, we should have broken into the prison, and ourselves have conducted the victim to the scatlidd. The people maintained that demeanour which becomes an heroic nation, and accompanied the culprit to the 6c3tti)ld, with shouts of—" To death with Elio! his blood will cement the constitutional edifice.' " Another letter tioin Valeacia, written in a dif ferent spirit, states—" The scatlidd on which Gen. Liu was strangled at Valencia, on the 4th instant, was erected close to a delightful garden which be longed to him when he was all puwerful in that to%%n. It appears that this spot was selected in or der that his tragical end might be marked by a cir cumstance which was calculated to make him regret life. One of our Journals, which is at all times distinguished tin. its violence, affirms that Gen. Elio, previously to walking to the beaffold, knelt down :old asked pardon of the Authorities, who were pre sent, for all the mischief he had occasioned—this is %%holly false. Above twelve thousand persons were witnesses of the firmness which lie shoved on this sad occasion, and of the last words he pronounced. Hie General protested his innocence in the face of ('lid and man; h e d ec l are d t h at l ie h a d on ly carr i e d tine execution the orders which lie had received from the Government during the period of his command; that lie was utterly uneonnected with the revolt of the cannoniers; mid, filially, that he begged of God to pardon his iuurderers, us he himself forgave them. wi-h,' lie added, that my blood may he the last - which is shed iu Spain.

SEPT. 22.—A British Cabinet Mes senger passed through this city last night on his way from Vienna to London. A Russian Courier from London to Vienna has also passed through. His Royal Highness Prince Aug ustus of Prussia arrived at Frankfort on the 16th . Letters from that city say, that in consequence of a request made to tile King of Prussia by Prince Hardeuberg, the Chancellor of State, his Majesty has been pleased to dispense with the attendance of that Minister at the Congress of Verona. The accounts front Rome say, that Cardinal Gun salvi, Secretary of State to his Holiness, had lately had several conferences, and that it is supposed he is on the point of receiving his final instructions previous to his departure to represent his Holiness at the Congress at Verona. It is positively affirmed that the Austrian and English Ministers at Constantinople have again strongly urged the Porte to send an ambassador to Wills frontier town, to confer with ti Russian Mi nister. N'l EN NA, SEPT. 11t.—The Emperor Alexander went yesterday to Luxemburg with their Majesties and the Archdukes and Duchesses, where the birth duy of the Emperor (of Russia) was kept, but nut publicly, only a select circle being invited. A p.►rt of their Majestys' suite is to 11(t out fur laspruck next vial, to proceed to Verona. our+ 0 PRICF. 9fd. BAYONNE, SEPT. 16.—We have no certain news . of Quesada since the affair of the 7th, but the return to France of eke Apostolic Junta of Navarre, which was at Ochagavia, as well as of several other indi viduals, seems to shew that Gen. Espinosa has dis.. lodged the Defendtin of the Faith from the moun tains of Navarre, with the exception of trail, which he reconnoitred on the 13th with 1,500 men. !rum, Sari. B.—M. de Pouqueville, the Consul of France in the Mores, arrived on the 6th at Milan Irons Florence. The noble conduct of this faithful 'and intrepid servant of his Most Christian Majesty has obtained bite the S hoat flattering reception from the Ministers, Ambassadors, and Censuls, of his Majesty at Naples, Florence, and Milan. The Pore • having met lain/ lit the Villa Albatti, designed to honour with his benediction the preserver of so many thousands of Christians, and it is not doubted that if his voice could be heard at the Congress of Verona, it would induce the Sovereigns to interest themselves in the canoeist the Greeks. M. Pouqe vile is said to be going to Marseilles. BATONS'S, Sari. 19.—Sir William A'Court, set out this morning for Spain ; it is thought he will sleep at lrun, where preparations are making to give him a most brilliant reception. The military preparations continue without inter ruption.; every day there arrive powder waggons, gun carriages, cartridges, tents, corn, Sic. but hi therto no troops; we are therefore still in the same uncertainty respecting the object of these particu lars; but the general opinion is, that they are merely Intended to alarm our neighbours, the Spaniards, Mute so fai there is nothing that indicates the en trance of the troops of the pretended Sanitary cordon into 'Spain, whose numbers would not suffi:v to oc cupy Guipascoa. The French soldiers, besides, me not animated with any eagerness to make part of an expedition of this description. On the 16th General Espinosa had an aetioo with the troops of Irani, which, after losing four killed, and thirty wounded, declined the combat. The Junta of Navarre, the members of which are at this moment at Bayonne, have lately caused pro clamations to be circulated in Navarre, inviting the inhabitants to enlist under the banners of the I. aith, and to obey the legitimate government of the King, established at Urgel. It is said that Equoia is called to the Regency at Urgel, and that he has also re ceived orders to suspend from his functions Colonel Abren, who is to give an account of the large sums that have passed through his hands within the last twelve months, for the purchase of arms, ammuni tion, &c. The Spanish refugees at Bayonne loudly blame this Colonel, whose malpractices have been denounced to the Junta at Urgel. MADRID, SIFT. 11.—It is affirmed that various General Officers and Colonels, who are quartered at Valencia, have just been ordered to go into exile, as follows : Lieut.-Generals--Perellos, to the Canaries; and Conde de Calderon, to Ibiza.
