WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 7, 1823. 1 . : 4 ,, —O.-- I •We have this morning received Bayonne papers of the 29th ult. from which we extract the following:— We have been looking impttently for the appearance i of a bulled's+, the delay in the publication of which gives occisfon to circulate unfavourable reports. We expect likewise the mail from Madrid, which we sup pose will net be stopped twice refining. Meantime It is affirmed that Saragossa, which our troops are said to have entered on the 25th, was on the contrary well disposed to defend fleet!. St. Sebastian is invested, but not so closely but that 'the garrison can come out of the town, and exercise en the glacis. The besiegers have attempted to hin der this, but have been repulsed with loss. The beery Winery intended for the seige of St. Sebastian and liaelpeluna begins to arrive. They are fide 42 ( ponders, made at Toulouse. An officer belonging to the hospitals, who arrived yes. terday from Vittoria, affirms that the hospitals are full, especially of wounded. A kind of proclamation has bees lewd by Egnia, to fix the rate of the French money which is to be current i■ Spain. It is terminated by an order to the inhabit ' ants of thwe places in which the French troops may be, • to supply the markets with previsions at a price which is to be fixed every morning by the Municipal Author!• tier. It is to be apprehended that this meant. will •not have the result experienced from it, for it is the im mense profit which they have made that has in duced the inhabitants to supply the French. The Garda du Corps are to leave us today. As an indi cation of the expectation that :he war will be of some duration, it is remarked the great hospitals are organised on the second line, and that a general magazine of medicines are going to be formed at Bayonne. 11. Burdon, who hss arrived here, being appointed by the . King, Intendant General of the Army, has resolved, it is • • said, an order from the Duke of Angoolema not to go to the allay, as he will not he received there. It seems difficult to explain how the will of the King and that of the Prince can clash. St. Ander, against which the right wing is marching, will probably make no resistance, —.....".... Paris papers to the 6t! Instant hare come to band. The Afonitsar of the sth contains - the following TELEGRAPHIC DESPATCH. e " Paris, May 5, 1923. " The advanced guard of General Molitor has advanced bposs Prigs. The Royalist garrison of Mequinensa has taken possession of the fort and town of Alcania. Belles • teros his retreated from Caltaged apse Roca. Several . barations of Royalists are organizing at Saragossa." • This intelligence announces no material change in the • positions of the armies. It only shews that the French ' continue to extend themselves along the line of the Ebro, and the Spaniards under Ballesteros, to carry on their - systematic retreat, inclining, however, a little more than they have hitherto done towards New Castile. That the Royalist garrison of Mequinensa, after being relieved . from their blockade, should be able to occupy undsfend. , ed places in 4be neighbourhood, is DO matter of wonder , or of boast; for in proportion as they extend they must • , - weaken their force. Marshal Moncey, however, has had ,I no occasion to waste his strength by the extent of I his operations or the rapidity of his progress ; for s-though it is some lime since be entered Catalonia, where . be seas expected to strike great and decisive blows be retains inactive where he was. His bead-quarter are ( ' ... , still.at Pentads. The private correspondence in the French papers, explains the cause of this inaction. One .'of the History . slants, it appears, who had form e rly b een Z , ' iievernof of Vic r and wished to seduce the inhabitants, 'Ai ter having passed several days on the frontiers, has re . turned to Perpignan alarrned,on finding " that the whole , • ',. petition of Catalonia had risen es masse to oppose the mien, and that their friends had abandoned them and *de common cause with the Constitutionalists; but r. ' ,1 l' liatlicet surprised them, and fi lled up the measure of •` 'th eir •estosislrment, was their learning that General Mi r ila, who was said to be almost without troops, was at Vioh with 9,1100 men ; that Rotten• was at Olot, with 2,000, exclusive of 400 rcen, whom lie bad detached upon I Campredou; that Lobera commanded at Besaluget and , Tortola, where he had established himself with 2500 men, , and that Thins was posted at Estella, Linda, and Het i nod& with 5000 men ; in short, that the ci-dennt Go ( 1 , rrnor of Vich despaired of bein g e na bl e d t o f u lfil hi s L sisiesioo, sad could rot resume his post so easily as was .'imagined." By this disposition of his forces the skilful . ' T Commander is enabled not only to cover a vast extent of country, bat also to alarm the enemy in his position, and k *. te compel him as it is admitted in these papers, to alter the arrangements made for the march of troops from one only tattle other; so that all direct communications be ' lean Marshal Moncey and the Doke of Angooleme seem .to be internyted. Another account from Perpignan . states the forces of itlina, exclasire of the division of Genes, at 20,000 men, troops of the line. The division of Milan. was within 6 league and a half of l'ignonet, which was occupied by the Baron d'Eroles. The Spa aish peasants who come from that part of Lampourdan occupied by the French army state that besides these troops, this Constitutionalists bare a considerable num. , her of Guerillas who will be in motion in a few days. 11 Itappeais," adds the letter, "that there was much more ' , correctness and exaggeration in the reports respect. big the spirit which animates all the inhabitants of Catalonia; the division of d'Eroles which was to bar 1 Da ly. hi 1141, WI 1 0 Sin • b., - SATE raised the whole country, has ■ot received it 01401 recruit, and the monks and priests who wen tto hive game forth, still remain in great members upon the frontiers. Several have returned here." A letter from Vittoria of 29th April, written by one of the Oacers attached to the household of the Doke of A ogon leme to his brother in Paris, says, " His Royal High ness is to leave Vittoria on the sth of May, to stop four days at Burgos, and to arrive at Madrid on the 20th." There are accounts in the French papers from Madrid, but not of a later date than those mentioned yesterday, repeating,what was stated before,that Count Abisbal was preparing to leave the capital with his army, and that the emigration from Madrid continued, and all the valu able effects that were in the capital had been sent to va rions strong places in the Peninsula. The General has pointed out the cantonments which are to be occupied in the neighbourhood of Madrid, by the different corps of his army. On the 18th ult. he made a grand review of the 3d year of operations, of which be has the command in chief. The different corps =atoned in the environs of Madrid were summoned to be present at this review, which drew all the population from the city. After hav ing defiled on the bank of the Mangansres, the troops manoeuvred till evening. These troops Led a fine ap pearance, and displayed much ardour. The 18th, in the evening, the pieces of cannon began to arrive there, and the artillery baggage, which was in the depot of Segovia. The Political Chief of Seville has addressed a Pincla. (nation to the inhabitants of that city, felicitating them on the good spirit which they have displayed under re• cent circumstances. The Militia of Madrid were re viewed on the 14th ; the review was very splendid, and it furnished to the inhabitants of Seville a new opportu nity of manifesting their enthusiasm for the Constitution. Accounts from Cadiz of the 9th, say that General Riego had been received there on the Bth, with the greatest enthusiasm : he made a short speech to the people, recommending unanimity, and strict observance of the Constitution, for which every Spaniard on gbt to shed his blood. The intelligence from France is unimportant. It only details the fetes given in Paris to celebrate the ninth An niversary of the King's return to his capital. lo the evening all the public buildings were illuminated on the occasion, as well as some private bosses. The Funds are not quoted, as the Exchange was closed on account of the Fete. STOCK EXCHANGE, 12 o'CLocx.—Consols opened this morning at 791181, and at the latter price, they remain steady. The Express from Paris this morning, brings, it is said, last Monday's prices of the French Rentes,—. 89, 50, and Spanish, 40. The rise of the French Funds bas contributed to Improve our Market.—Letters direct from Madrid of the 24th, received yesterday, state the i preparations are making there by the inhabitants, t o receive the Duke D'Angoulease.

Letters of the 234 ult. from Madrid mention that the people and local authorities expected the French to ar rive there in about a week from that date, every obstacle being removed that could impede their advance. Count Abisbal, in all probability, would withdraw his troops towards Estremadura, in order to be ready to operate en the Bank of the enemy. Upwards of 20,000 persons had quitted the capital with their valnables, and so fixed had been the determination of sacrificing the town for the moment, that the appearance of the white flag would be a subject of exaltation. The Spaniards conceit e that when they can get the French safely p i ned in Madrid, and in the centre of the country, they will be able to act with efficiency on their flank and rear, brr cutting off their supplies and communications and carryies on a guerrilla warfare on the most harassing system 77 Letters from St. Sebastian of the 24thyspeak in the most enthusiastic terms of the defence made by the gar rison. The first sally, they mention, was extremely gin rious, and the French must have experienced great loss. Several others have subsequently been made, with great effect. They have provisions for five months, and are in receipt of supplies by sea. These letters add, that in their attacks on Legrono, the French lost 1,400 men, • circumstance that had created some surprise and alarm to the Duke d'Angonleme. The garrison of St. Sebas tian is composed of three regiments of infantry, viz. Union, Valencay, besides several companies of artillery, in all upwards of 3000 men. The following are extracts of letters received yester day from . Madrid and Seville:— " MADRID, APRIL 21.—The proclamation of the flew Re gency organized under the auspices of the French Govern ment has just arrived here, and has filled every one with as tonishment and indignation. Ilan the object been to excite in every Spaniard the most irreconcileable animosity igainst our invaders, nothing more effectual for the purpose could have been prepared. To atter a formal disavowal of all the acts of the Spanish Government, political and administra tive, sines theft% of March; IWO, is to compromise, and of course make an enemy of, every respectable man in the country. Had a different course been pursued, the French, in entering Madrid, might have met many friends, and still more persons disposed to wait the result of the Government to be established by them, believing it to be founded at least on liberal principles. Mote will now be no persons of note or tespectability to slippbrt the r..•-klovernment, or to give it consequence in the byes ef the iii:e s ple. There Is scarcely a house the inhabitants ief which are not removing or prepar ing to remove from the espitalt All the members of public offices, the bureau, and thertfithileipal administrators, quit in the present week.' . " SZVILLS, APRIL 19.—A question is in agitation here re specting the removal of the King to Cadiz, not on account of any danger that threatens the Royal person, but, it Is said, owing to some distrust that prevails respecting the militia, and the want of harmony between them and the regular troops, In consequence of which some tragical events are ap prehended. it has been judged necessary to establish pa trols of horse and foot, both within and without the city._l With regard to the King's inclination, it is said that he is unwilling to quit Seville, and that he ventured to declare so to several persons who have lately been introduced to him. Rut the most important topic under discussion is the expected changes lathe Ministry. On the I eth in the even ing, a secret meeting took place of the chief members of the Cortes now In Seville, In which it was determined to pro pose to the King's acceptance, as Minister, Calatrava in the first instance, and that Sancho should afterwards be united with him if possible, with the power of selecting their own colleagues in office. This step has arisen from a persuasion that the present men Its power hare acted imprudently in re jecting the mediation of England, aid that at the present moment Ministers Must be selected who incline to the policy of sitemptieg an amicable accommelation with France.— Whether this end will be answered by thi Mmation of the ew Ministry Is still it, be proted.".

The de- Nada . 4 . u convicted of perjury at Ch es t er , an d t h e 1 judgme of the Court was :--" it is ordered that the I prise be t rans p or t e d to t h e C oast of N ew South Wales some one of the Islands adjacent, for the term of seveit years.

Th e judg ments ments • found to be erroneous, and were reversed on that ant, for that the law bad appointed a certain and understood term, and would not suffer any ether be used. If it were no j.idgmerit the prisoner ought be discharged, for the Court below cannot alter or awe d after the Session. edit* Jorrice.—There are many instances of judg ments having been respited. Mr. Juntas coatinned.—There never was a case in which this Court has passed judgment on a criminal aentesce of the Court below. The judgment was also bad, gems, the seven years' transportation ought to be hj the bad Geo. 11., In addition to the punishment awarded by_thasloastuon Law ; and the Court could not add to or diet au& the punishment awarded by the statute. la the case of the Xing and Walton, which was one of High Treason, the atilliaift was ease ed after the execution of the prisoner, 09 the ground that the taking Out and burning of the entrails was omitted in the seams«. A diminution must be the act of the Crewe, sod not of this Court. The 4th of George I. first gave poster to transport in cases of perjury. The 6.fh GPO. 111. gives power to the Ling in C0111)0 to change the place of transportation ; here the Plat ' was left uncertain. Who was is chose it? If the Cos, it ought to have named it pr e cisely ; if the King in C : i i I, the Court ought not to have interfered at all. The Learned tientleman concluded by grooming up the very able arguments be had adduced in the course of his speech. Mr. Lirrtioa tit, on the other side, was proceeding to read the words of the Statute, under which this sen tence was passed, and which were, that the Court should order the prisoner to be transported for 7 years, and that it should afterwards proceed tojudgment. Ilere the Chief Justice intimated that this was only the order and no jag/meet, and that the prisoner must be taken back again to Chester, that the Court belbw might proceed to give judgment. Mr. Jones said a faw words on tho hardship of his client havlpe now been confined above a year on board the Hulks, on ,What now turned out to be no judgment. Ile then mov- Miktotn writ of Habeas Corpus to bring ttp the prisoner to be discharged, sines he was now in no lawful custody. COMM—That you must do on affidavit. At pre_ent we know nothing about where be is, nor in what custody. The only way in which you could have benefitted your client was by 'hewing us that this was an erroneous jedgmest, which we were bound to reverse. After a rreat deal of cot:sultation about the course to be pursued, on its being declared that no lodgment bad passed, the Chief Justice said, the final decision is:—it is ordered that the Court below do proceed to gi rejodk moot. &CAPS Of BARING BURGLARS AND THEIR Re carruae!—Last night, Islington was thrown into the greatest alarm, owing to the firing of pistols, in one of the main thoroughfares, and the report that the Police officers were in pursuit of two persons concerned in the Murder of Mr*. Richards, at Clapham. The real facts woe these: about four smiths ago, the house of Mr. At, is Coudoitestreit, Bond-street. was robbed of poo rly of the value of near 500/.

Price, one of the burglars was apprehended some time ago, and de- I Wined in custody for the apprehension of his coadjutors, two desperate characters, named Harry flicks and Jolla Gloyd, who were taken on Friday night last,and conveyed to St. Margaret's watchhouse, for examination next day at Queen Square Office. Strict orders were given to the watchhouse-keeper not to let the men out of the black hole on any account whatever. On the Saturday morning, the prisoners asked fur some cater in a basin to wash themselves, and as it was being handed to them through the door, they forced it open and knocked down and beat the Keeper and his wife, and effected their es- cape. For the last three nights and days, the Officers, Pace, Handler, and Cooper, have been lying in the fields near Islington, watching for them, and last night, as they approached a field near the Britannia, a suspici ous character rushed by them, towards a Skittle ground, and instantly Hicks and Gloyd were seen by the officers running along Britannia Row. The Officers cried "Mur der," and on Pace approaching the robbers, he tired, and the ball passed by the face of one, and the back of the others' heads, and Uloyol was,after a desperate resistance, secured. Hicks escaped, but was taken this morning within a few miles from Tottenham They were both examined this morning at Queen Square, and committed for the burglary. Tat Rm.—No day has yet been fixed for the Drawing Room, owing to his Majesty sot being sufficiently strong to bear the fatigues of It. The following answers to inquiries at Carlton Palace were yesterday given : First—" The Drawing Room will not be held this week, because his Majesty is not able to undergo the fatigue." second—" The King has been free from the gout some time, and the statement that be has experienced another at tack is untrue; his Majesty Is still indisposed, and the Drawing Room is postponed."

It was observed by one of the Gentlemen presto?, that with the vote of thanks to Mr. Plunkett, (in the pro priety of which be fully concurred,) there ought to be general vote of thanks to those liberal and eelightenrd Members of the House of Common', who were_ always favourable to the Catholic Claims. Sir Edw. Bellew, Mr. Hugo O'Connor and Mr. O'Con nell expressed their apprehensions that such a Res°, lotion might be construed into an approbation of die course adopted by the Opposition Members; who, though agreeing with Mr. Plunkett on the general prin ciple of Catholic Emancipation, seemed to differ in opi. nion with him as to the manner of bringing it forward. They, therefore, thought it better not to bring forward such a resolution. Mr, Costelloe, Mr. J. D. Mellen, and several other Gentlemen expressed themselves very decidedly in Layette of the resolutton of thanks to the other Members of the House favourable to civil and religious liberty. . Lord Killeen conceived that stirh a resolution migltt be drawn up, expressing the gratitede of the Catholics towards all their friends in Parlianiont, and that so ob jectionable inference could be dr:ten frota3i.
