The former contains nothing Important, but the information io some of the latter is highly interest . tag, as will spree in an extract.from one of them insert.. ed in another of our columns. . While the Ultras of Paris - and of London pretend, that Mina has been forced into • a I.byrintli of difficulties, and got entanglid in the meshes of Money's net, it • appears to intelligent men that the Spanish Commander has completely outwitted the French. A presumptive proof this is the absence of offirill advices from Moncry's army, and the silence of the Afo:nitznr. It would appear that Mina's advance, and the positions be Lae taken, iu the defiles of the Py ren •es, has prevented Moncey, at present, from having any commuolication with France. In the absence of of ficial a4lviceA, private letters from Madrid to the Sib in stant, re.Tived yesterday, throw some light on the mi lt • tatty dispositions of the Spaniards in the interior of the Penivatila, and afford grounds for believing that Mina's advance is not the result of individual enterprise, hut part of a combined plan, which was to be kept carefully secret until the moment of its execution, and which, ac cording to the writer, " would, if successful, make the . Bourbons. tremble on their throne, or bury them under its ruins." Su.:h a threat would seem to indicate that the obj,mt was a !weal invasion of France, in order to afford the p opts of that conntry a military nucleus, ruled which they might form. The French exiles who,l the courier supposes. were with Mina, and who have rot been heard of lately, begin to occasion some uneasi• nets to the Bourbonists. 1: seems some such enterprise -easesAkiema.anticipateil by them, for the courier observes, that the Durken d'Anglateme {as fit coadjutor to her husband, in a political, if not a military capacity,] has taken up her residence at Bourdeanx, in order to check, Ly ller popnlarity. any seditious movements in the South of Franc.. Abisbal, who had been represented as hav ing assembled. an army of 16,000 n en, and advanced to join Ballasteros, it appears, by the Madrid letters still confinnes in that capital. Ile bad prevailed upon all who are respectable in rank or wealth to leave it. and was en sleavouring to increase the number of emigrants. When he does remove, it is probable it will be in the direction anticipated, when the united armiei might maintain the communications with Catalonia open, and if necessary, !match into that province to .support the operations of Mina. The celebrated Empecinado was posted near Avila with a strong Guerilla party, organizing other corps of the same kind to harass the flanks of the Duke of Angouleme as soon as the appointed time for acting on the offensive on every point tbroughourthe Peninsu la. should arrive. Ballasteros is said to have ha I re- peated skirmishing with the French during his retreat, in which his tropps behaved with the greatest bravery and resolution, and killed great numbers of the invaders. Such are the contents of private communications from the Spanish Capital, which remained tranquil notwith standing the threats of the approaching enemy. The Papers informs us that the hea.bquarters of the Dake d'A ngouleme were to remain at Burgos until the 18th inst. The Generalis simo may perhaps think proper to postpone his visit to *Madrid till the result of Mina's enterprise u ascertained- • r~ :. +. ~'_ THE The accounts we have last received confirm what had been formerly stated that the Royalist bands neither ae quire accession of strength, nor snake greater progress from the French invasion. Many of the late reports of their success are discovered to be fabricatioui ; among which is the story relating to Valencia. In spite of Ulwan, it continues in possession of the Constitutionalists. In consequence perhaps of this experience, it is understood that the Doke does not purpose to advance further than Ma drid, where he intends to establish the new Government, but will leave the Royalists to encounter Seville, and be content to secure his communications with France. It is even reported in a morning paper that the French have made offers to the Constitutional Government, which will hardly be refused, their object bring to men. snre their ground bark to France, as soon as possible after entering Madrid (which was to be on the 22d. " Reports of negociation have been frequently made of late; and we only notice the above," continues the sime paper," because we have heard from good authority that great reliance is placed on the successful issue, in high quarters."

" We ttltall nut leave this piece so soon as we had reason to expect, owing to the number of failures among the Can ton merchants, who cannot raise money to pay the np-eountry traders for their tea. A circumstance occurred here the Irtherdeyrasitich we were all afraid would have occasion a stoppage of the triikbeigillg-beesexer.. izt this ins Chinese justice , prevailed crier Chinese prejulices,' we came off with dying colour. Two China-men cant alongside our ship in a small covered Unpin, or host:. and seemed anxious to lay their hands on any light thing they could find. They were repeatedly ordered to leave the ship, but to no purpose. and at last two or three coals were thrown at them, one of which hit their boat; en this they set up a loud yell, and dragged out from under the covered part of the boat,, an apparently dying map, with his head cut and covered with blood. They gave us to understand that we had wounded the man, and they put him into our coinpodor's, or waterman's boat, and there left him whilst they went on shore : to glee in formation to the Mandarins. In a very short time after they left the ship, the poor4tenn died, and on exatniaing -his body it was found to be much emaciated, as if from long illness, and the blood on the head proceeded from three small cats, made with a knife, or some other sharp Into went. which could not have occasioned his death. The ea. lidos who brought him. returned in a short time with unit or two petty Mandarins, and refused to compromise matters under 5,000 dollars. The Captain instantly seized the ras cals, and kept them in confinemenron board our ship, and st,i the Chinese who were alongside at the time of 1119 death had a strong guard set over them. The Captain then went to Canino, and laid the state of the case before the super cargo, from whom it was forwarded to the Viceroy of Can ton. Next day the Viceroy seat down proper officers to examine into the affair, who held a Court of Justice on the shore-uppos:te our ship, where the villains were brought to confess that they had the barbarity to bring off a man whom they knew to be at the point of death, hoping to frighten the English into a belief that they had killed - him. and thereby to obtain from them a handsome sum of dollars as hush-money. They were taken up to tows, where they are to tee beheaded , and Id or 1 Slecomplices. it is said, are to be banished for. life. So much fur the friendly inhabitants of he Celestial Eupire.". • - !. POSITIONS OF THE SPANISH AND FRENCH ARMIES IN CATALONIA. InTitAcT OP A arms PROM pAntS, MAY 15. " Mina has entirely- oat-geperalled his antagonists; both the French and Spanish Royalists, both regular officers and men of the Faith. A despatch arrived this morning from Marshal Moncey, dated the 11th instant, in which the Marshal announces a revere check to the invading army. It was the intention of the Commander of the nutted French and Spanish forces to compel Mina to fight near Vich, or to drive him within the walls of Barcelona. For this purpose all the divisions of their army had been maineuvring for ten days. The Constitu tional General saw their intentions, and he entirely de feated them. Instead of retreating by Olot and Castelfollit upon Campredon, aiiwas at first said, he turned right upon Itipoll,drove before him Romagosa and a division (arena; troops, and with the greatest part of his force has march • ed upon Bergs. He has now a free passage into Arra gon. Having gained the valley of the Segra, he can either proceed towards Lerida, occupy Cerdagne, or threaten the rear of the allied troops in Catakinia. able movement excites the admiration even of I,ls anta gonists. Some of these antagonists will be reprimand ed, and otherwise most likely recalled for allowing themselves to be so out-generalled. Curial, d'Eroles,. and Donnadien, have got orders to exert themselves to repair the fault which they have combined, but that will not be in their power. Mina and his troops are ac customed to the mountains and the climate. The French are already suffering from heat, scanty subsistence, and fatigue, and there is no chance now that they can do any i t' thing in Catalonia. ; • " As the account of these events has only yet reach/ Ole GovorirapaS, Saab of the details have bees tinny; picated, The ilositemr and the JourNat den Pebed the only two papers worth leokinff at ter Govasyl . news—will notfoubt all Mina's admirable movement 4 I on Arragon a *Ott, but they will carefully conceal the facts and circumstances which make it equivalent, bath in merit and effect, to a brilliant victory. . " The report current, among . well-informed persons is, that he has taken 2,000 prisoners. This I merely mention as a report, but the previous Bets may be relied on a ith perfect certainty. " P. S. The Government here is in gi e.,i eoesterna• tion. Moncey has ordered the Generals engaged to be reprimanded ; at the same time orders have been given to pallia , e their fault, by saying that Mina is dying be fore them." OLD DAILEY.-(TII1S MORNING.)
