I 4.—The fanatical journals continue to make it great noise about a pretended violation of the French territory by the Spanish troops. Now let us sea what this offence, which has culled forth such violent complaints, amounts to, accordiag to the . statements of all private letters, and the journals published in the provinces adjoining• to that in which it is pretended the vhdation took place. It appears, -then, that on the 251 th of last mouth, shit an with a lively anxiety. The public mind was agi tated, but no symptom of trouble - was manifested. Hostile intentions towards us, rather than actual hostilities, were expected from the Powers ; and, should war even take place, the confidence of the ' Spanish people in the means the country possesses of rendering all the attacks of Europe abortive, con tributed much to the calm and tranquillity which continued to reign in the midst of the sort of crisis In which we are platee4 e On the 6th; the French. Ambassador Jelivssepkt i eiour Government the .opy the instractioneof the French Minister. This nap irr educed little sonsatitm. • The notes of the Russian, Pruedim, and Alsatian' Ministers were delivered on the 64,- A Upon was at *nit spread that the Russian note was less mode rate than those of the other Powers; but it was seen learned that the notes were common to the three Cabinets. The Spanish Ministers have referred the notes of France and the three Powers to the Council of State, in order to liayc the upiuieu of that body on the an swers toelsegiven to these noter-aanswers which will be well , consillered, and will giVe a fresh pruof of the excelleikapirit which animates the men now ut the heaul qriffaies in Spain. It appears that the Council grifftitte is to pin to itself a certain number of the Deputies of the Corte ....ken from the parties who exhibit the different shades of opiisiOn remarked in that assembly. The at finale of the'Ministry and of the Cortes create in the people of Spain a feeling of confidence and security, which does equal honour to the Ministers and to the Congress as to the us tional character. Every one is perfecly satisfied that that the replies of the Cabinet of Madrid will be so , framed as to preserve uninfriuged the di r ,onity of Spain. at the tame time that they will, by their mg)• aeration, remove all pretext for hostilities, which Spaniards will always be rattly to repel, but which they are • r from meaning to provoke. The • • • Juts guldreeall. ALA.*, will. &ciliation respecting t authors of the conspiracy of the 7th of July, and their accomplices. In this vet iti:tg the municipality recites the measures which it has tnitea to finavnel the course of justice against these individuals; and it also reminds his Majesty, that it was only upon receiving formal promise that the traitors should be punished, that the militia consented to separate and retire to their homes on the 12th of July. The address concludes with a prayer that the King will command the proceedings which have liven commuted against the amid:atom of the month of July to be conducted with activity. A repres.aitation of a similar purpose was made by the latieluburian society on the sth, upon the motion of General Itiego, who said the rigour of justice ought not only to visit those individuals who have been placed under arrest, but also those who have ' hitherto escaped all molestation. ' The regiment of the cavalry of Almansa, which cotylutcal itself lei gloriously on the 7th of July, has departed train Madrid. On the day previous to its departure, in the square of liceollets. Attar the review, the soldiers demanded with loud cries to be led to the square of the Constitution. Having arrived there, they surrounded the stone of the Constitution, mid renewed their oaths to (lie ill de fence at their country, and the laws which they enjoy under the Constitution. The air resounde.i with cries of " The Nation ! the Constitution r the National Coligress, and the heroic people of Nladrid! the Constitution or death !" Our journals continue to he filled with relations of the operations of the constitutional forces des patched in pursuit of the factions. The troops of General Torrijos and Mina have been particularly mentioned as having mule the enemies of the coa stitutiou suffer considerable lsses. The latter are pursued in all directions, and are not permitted to have a moment of repose in any place. A curate and two other leaders of rebellious bands have been arrested in Biscay. The constitutional troops exhibit the game activity in Arregon. Toe furtress of Mequiliensa is closely blockaded. 'lite measures fiir entiireing the levy which has been decreed by the Cortes are conducted every where with regularity, and, in many of the pro vinces, with enthusiasm. Eight hundred recruits have set uut from Madrid to join the army. Similar detachments are on their march in all the provinces for the same destination. They sing patriotic surto, in passing through towns. sidle Fa u lt, is which the bitter Wein defeat ed, m usual, and tied, part lain France, anti part to. Valcarins, Astpusa, at the head of 200 ten, presented themselves at a village common to both countries, and demanded guides form the French to poi n t out their road. There is nothing hostile in this proceed ing; indeed, it seems to indicate a desire to reapedt the French roil. It was for the local authority tai• grant or refuse the guides; awl in the latter case. if their refusal were disregarded, to protest against such conduct; but it appears that in the absence of the Mayor, his Deputy made no scruple to furnitat the guidai who were demanded. Whether this fistictiona luta dime right or wrung, it is not con venient,to discuss here ; besides, the Prefect has already decided that point, by suspending him; all that we wished to d I was to show that Cel. Assurs• had not engtmitted the ofFeuce ler which he is re proached the Quogidienne, the Eteile, and the -Dropeau isc, with n violence and coarseness, of which, tOrturettely, thopFreneh journals afford few examples. Well, the Spanish troops having performed their march, arrived at Valearlos, where they completed the defeat of those enemies whom they had previously routed . . It is certain that Captain Anningel, the Msswssin of Col. Crtichaga, was killed in the action. As many as could escape in the confusion tied into France, whither no at tempt was made to purses them —a new moof that the Spanish troops never enter tained the design of violarieg the French territory. A letter from Bayonne, Jute,' the 7th, gives the following detude un the result of Gen. O'OonnePs expedition a— " The attempt of Gen. O'Donnel in Navarre has bad the consequences which we expected. On the 30th of last month that General was violently in sulted at Estella by his own soldiers, who were worn out by the marches and countermarches he made them perfia . m. The commandant Insulin had an interview with him, and represented to him the dis content of the men, and their wire, to risk a battle with the Constitutionalists. 0 Donne' showed his instructions, by which he was dimmed to confine insulted t to harassing and fatiguing the enemy. When Jaunito repeated this answer to the soldiers, they loudly testified their disapprobation; and O'Deuriel, whose health was considerably injured, apprehending that the minds of his withers would become still further exaspersted, resolved to give up the com mand, and to return to France, by the way of St. Jean-Pied de-Port, clung with some of his officers. IL is said that he arrived at Bayonne yesterday, but this we cannot confirm ; we only know that there have arrived at the St. Esprit, 24 cavaliers of the Faith, who, it issued, served him ter his escort. Wu know nut who will be his successor, nor whether he will have one. " The accorints front Navarre announce, that the position of the armies is such, that we every moment expect to hear of the complete detection of the troop,. of the Faith, concentrated us they are in the mono tains, and completclar surrounded by the Constitu tionalists. 0.1 the 2d, 120 of Jatinito'a soldiers presented themselves to the Alcade of Megrim to claim the armistice width was granted to them. " A commercial house of this town has been com missioned by another of Vittoria, to negotilte with the agents of the Frail, fur the ransom of six inch- Vidaats, who were taken as hostages and carried into the mountains. The demand made is 12,000 plus tres, and the half of that sum has been oltCred. In consequence of the %smut of money, there is little hope of these unlertunate captives recovering their liberty. 1 hey belong to the commune of Ciego, in Rioja. This is nut use first time that our town has bes:a made the theatre of such a shameful traffic." MADuID, JAN.
