Paris papers to the 9th instant have been received since our last. Those of Thursday contain the fol lowing TELEGRAPHIC DESPATCH: " Paris, May B.—The bead-quarters were removed to Miranda on the sth. The population from several Races had repaired thither, and showed the greatest sa tisfaction. " The 4th corps entered Gerona on the 2J, where it was expected with impatience, anti was received with the most lively enthusiasm." The route of the Grand Army, and the arrangements of the army of Catalonia, are thus stated by the Mo sitrer : ARMY OF TIIR PYRENEIS. Head-quOrters, rittoria, May 2. The Army will break up on the sth of May, and mirth on Madrid.—The firand [lead-quarter and the Citips of Reserve will proceed by Burgos, Aran,la, Boit- Tars, and Alrovendas ; the Corps d'Armee, commanded by Marshal the Duke de Reggio, by Palencia, Vallaolo did, ti.got•ia, Guatlarams, and Galopayar ; the Corps d'Anner, commanded by lien. Oben, by Tudela, Tara gona, Agrida, Almazan, Paredrs, Jadraque,Ouadalac- ara, awl Aleata; the (•orps d'Ann.e, commanded by Or neral Molitor, remains on the Ebro, to aq in concert with the dth corps; the Corps d'Artnee commanded by General Bourg, whose head-qnarters will be at Burgos, istppoioted to keep up the communication between St. Andero and Madrid ;—the Corps d'Armee commanded by Prince Ilohenlohe will continue the blockade of San Setastian and Pampeluna, and maintain the communica tion batwe-n f run and Briresca. FOURTH CORPS. OR ARMY OP CATALONIA. Head-quarters, Perolads, April 23. The enemy continued to: occupy yesterday his posi tion• of Bezalu and Tortslla. Lie will be attacked in them as won as the decrease of the Ruth will permit u■ to act on both banks. General Donnadieu was to arrive yesterday at Citnpre don. His appearance on the flanks and rear of the enemy will not long be delayed. General de la Roche Ayman observes the road of Ge rona. The inhabitants of that place have sent a deputa tion to him, in order to hasten the entry of the ,French troops. The Political Chief and General Bianco, at the head of from 300 to 400 militia, quitted Gerona yester day in great haste, and took the route to Barcelona. The occupation of Gerona by a part of Moncey's corps, would have been an event of li'tle consequence, since that town was nut defended by the Constitutionalists, it it did not seem to have encouraged the Duke d'Angou leme to cross the Ebro to Miranda. This advance of the 'lead-quarters is not above five and twenty miles, and; when there, they are full a hundred and sixty miles from Madrid, not having yet proceeded more than a hundred 'piles from Bayonne. Had Mina been able to •intain himself close to the French Frontier, nt. Du:se would not have been disposed to ad the from fear that his left Rank should be turned, vane` , .at his line of communications should be inter end ts It appears, I:owever, that the march of bloli• reptrtl. . toes d i moo to Saragossa has had the effect to make Mina ro i ls -push his original plan, and fall back in the ~lons, in order to maintain open his comma line of Ban. Ballasteros; but that he will evactute citations i t Catalonia with. sut a struggle, is extremely doubtful. The ral Rego with a strong division of Por entrance of Gen " *o Spain, is fully confirmed by these tuguese troops to. papers. He is sal, 1 to have proceeded beyond Ciudad as . far as Salamanca, in which case Rodrigo and yearly he would be able to loin the Count of Abisbal at the before the enemy could reach Prado in front of Maths th a t capital, even if win lamed amidst the passes of the , Sumo Sierra. Whether to ey would make a stand with their united force , whic h 'mild not fall far short of s. 25,000 men, or whether they s. ld f back on the Ta gus, and wait for the arrival of Ballasteros, must be re gulated by the numbers which ti. Duke of Angouleme w ill send or bring with him to occupy the Capital. With respect to Count Amarante amt his band, they have again offered their services to the enens,''. and again been refused. The following article from the Ministerial Journal des Debate will sho w, however, that this refu sal is a mere mockery ; for it declares tba although Amarante is not to be admitted in the French ranks, lie will be allowed to fight in those of the Spanis,i Royal ists, who, as well as the Freneh troops, form I, utrt of the Duke of Angouleme's army, and obey his ordea a, (FROM MR JOURNAL Ults DEBATS.) We think it necessary to remark that some Journals, in mentioning that the Count of Amarante has just effected a junction with the French Army, have made an incorrect report. It is known that the Duke d'Angou. leme positively declined the co•pperation of the Portu guese General, because France was not at war with Po:. tugal. An Aide-de-Camp of the Count of Amarante bariog arrived at Burgos to make propositions to the Duke de Reggio, the Marshal refused to listen to him, and even to see him, for the reason assigned by the Duke d'Angouleme. Truly we cannot carry our good faith further. But should the Count of Amarante nog join the Swinish Royalists, we have no right to prevent him ; and should General Rego, who pursues the Count, pre sent himself before our soldiers in the enemy's ranks, most certainly lie will be driven back. But all this does not involve as with Portugal, any more than we are in volved with England/ because Sir Hobert Wiliun is au ARR. 1 THE STOESMAN. iRg to fight in the armies of the Spanish Cortes, end perhaps may be killed by a French hall.

STOCK EXCH tNOt, Twar.vu o'Cr.ocw.—The avowal of Mr. Canning last night, of . the Russians assembling an army on the Vistula, caused some sensation in the above market. This morning Consuls opened at 78U. We, cannot have any Express this morning from Paris, with the French &flies, as it was a close holiday in the above capital on Thursday. Up to this hour, Consols remain steady at 7533. Foams MARIET.—Very little business is doing in the above Market ibis morning.

We are indebted to Captain Seaward, who arrived yesterday from Cotracoa and who has given us the following intelligence : —The Markets were overstocked, West India produce was high, and very scarce. A new Tariff took place on the first day of March, imposing an increase of duty of 50 per cent. both on imports and exports. The Restriction of Commerce nearly amounted to a prohibition. Captain 'Rowley, of the Sybil/clots his 'arrival at Maracaibo, on the let of Jan., stated to Colonel Loper, that the object of his visit was to demand from him the delivery of all British property, then in the city, which Lopez declined doing; giving as a reason, that it belonged to the ene mies of Spain, and as melt could not be delivered up, even by Moral .s himself." 4 , llavaxxa, MARCH 7.—A person on whose informs. tion we depend. has communicated to malt, following : On the 23 of February, arrived at the Port of Holguin, Captain Manuel, who left Maracaibo on the I3th of the said month, and positively anoouuces that General blo ndes had entered Caracras, with his Army." Letters of the 27th ult. from Bilhoa, mention that are. sidence in the place has now become insupportable'; b u t t he misfortune is, that the inhabitants cannot get away : the scarcity of conveyance is so great, not a mule nor even an ass is to be lad. The Royalists bare begun with contributions of a very oppressive kind, and every respectable person is loaded with insults. The French will rouse the Provinces, and the sooner the better; but they already begin to appreciate the diffieul ties of the enterprise. Letters from Vittoria of the 2511 i, state that a ',wirier had just been sent oftto Seville, with despatches from the Prince lieneralissimo, offering the French Charter, or something equivalent to it, which' of course, will he rejected. It is added, that the Duke has also sent off to Paris to demand a reinforcement of 50,1100 men and one million of francs, for all the money he brought with him has been consumed ; but this, and twice as much more, would not answer the object; for the temper of the people is getting u p . and will soon chew itself. The Army of t he Faith in garrison at Bilboa i± composed of nothing but smugglers, malefac tors, and all kinds of scamps, acting without order or regularity in any thing. • The King received a long visit from the Duke of York yesterday. Yesterday the Earl of Liverpool transacted business with Mr. Canning at the Foreign Office. Monday night Mr. Mitlv, the King's Messenger, ar rived in town with despatches from Spain, Yesterday Prince Leopold had a numerous grand din ner and evenine party. The Queen of the Netherlands and Princess Marianne, as well as their Royal Highnesses the Duke of Cumberland and Prince Charles of Mecklenburg Sirelitz, ace now at Berlin. It is said to be now settled that the Duke de Polignac is to be the accredited Minister from France to this country. A/111:1$ oe 110SIORABLE.—In 19'22. the Earl of Fife was a dismissed " Lord of the Bed-chamber. In 1323, the Esti of Fife is matle a Knight of the Guelphic Order." — His Majesty was graciously pleased to invite this Noble man to Carlton Palace last neck, and on Lord Fife's be ing ushered into the Royal apartment, the King, with that dignity so peculiarly his own, and which was so correctly and emphatically expressed by Al. de Chat eau briond, " took the Order from his own person, and placed it mend the neck of Lord Fife; honouring him at the same time with the most flattering expressions of his Royal favour and regard." What signifies Ministerial vengeance after this ? Who need be afraid of the Tres- sury whipper-in, or hesitate to give an independent vote in the House of Commons.* The King of England is no Patty man—it is ONLY his Ministers. whose *, system" it is to make men feel the " weight of party." The Minia ters may go on endeavouring to " detach" men from the body of the People and from the cause of the country, by making them act from motives of " private inte.•cst : ' against the public good—n'importe. So long as the s ine . reign rewards where the " Minister punishes" who's afraid ?l' '.—(Morning Chrnn.) • Lord Fife last year voted for the reduction of. a Junior Lord of the Admiralty, which lost him his place. A private letter from Paris, in the Algenicine Zcitung, says, that the name of the Governor who had agreed to give up San Sebastian lo the French is La Hanna. Bal lasteros, who had obtained information of the intrigue , . superseded the Governor on the eve of the attar!: made by the French. The saine'letter states; that to obviate the effects of similar acts of trearliery, the Spanish Mi nisters have appointed two supleineutal `commandants to cult fortress, who will control the acting Commandant, should he be induced by bribery or other motives to fa• your the enemy. At a Meeting of several . highly respectable gentlemen, friends of liberty and national independence, held on Thursday last at the Crown and Anchor 'Cavern, it was resolved, that a general public meeting be convened in the metropolis next week, in order to express the opinion of the Ili ittsh public on the unprincipled invasion of the Peninsula. A Committee was appointed for carrying this resolution into effect.

COURT OF KING'S BENcH.—Tuts W. Benbow appeared to receive the judgment of tae Court for publishing an obscene libel contained in la translation of Count Funblus. The defendant put in two affidavits, stating that he was insolvent, and indebted to the amount of 1,5001. ; that he had produced in Court all the numbers he bad left on hand of the libel, viz. 2,500 nninbers, which► he was ready to give up, and undertook not to republish the same. The Court intimated to Mr. GURNEY that no judgment ought, under these circumstances, to be prayed for. Mr. GURNET said that he ought to give op the prints and plates. lienhow said they were not his property, nor in his possession. The COURT ordered the defer.dant to enter into re cognisences to be of good behaviour; and to appear to receive judgment wheal called upon; which be entered into, and was discharged, after ant intimation from the Judge that if he connived at thepublication, he would be punished. DUN. .0 SCOTCH MARRIAGE. HOUSE OF LORDS, May 9. Gems REID, Esq. Appellant—Mrs. Jeam RCM Re spondent. In The Statesman of Thursday last, we gave a sum mary of the circumstances atieniling this case, and of the proceedings in the Courts below. Dr LOSHINOTON, for the appellant, now resumed his argument, which he had commenced on Wednesday, and contended, that the writing, termed a "declaration of marriage" between these parties, could not in law be held as imporing a matrimonial consent de prwsenti, and meat, therefore, he construed as bearing nothing more than a promise of marriage to be contracted at some More time—a promise to which the law will give no effect, unless it has been followed by a copula, of which iuiportant fact there was, in this case, no evidence beyond that of Rachel Forrester, upon whose testimony he made some very pointed observations. Mr. ATTORNEY.ORNIRAL, for the respondent, argued in support of the interlocutors appealed from as well founded in law, and justified by the , whole evidence In the cause, of which he laid before the House a very able anal ysis. Mr. Morece:EFF, on the same side, with much ability and clearness, awed the various modes by which mar riage may he contracted in Scotland ; holding it to be per settled and understood in that kingdom, that, wherever mutual declarations, such as appeared in tills case, had passed between the parties, they became co ipso married persons, without reqniring any proof of comestbitos • and, in addition to the authorities cited in the respondent's case, he referred to the decision of th i s House, 14th February, 1787, in the case of Robertson against Inglis, as directly in point. But, holding the declaration of the 13th of October 1908, as a mere promise de .1 - whir°, the Learned Counsel submit ted to the House, that the evidence of consequent copula was here as strong and convincing as could be expected to occur in any such case; and, after tracing from the mass of corre spondence of thel perties,4beir various meetings under the cloud of night, the length of lime that they continued toge ther, and their studied privacy, he was unable to figure a more powerful presumption in favour of such intercourse. than the certainty which must have been felt by the respond ent, that, by yielding to the appellant's wishes in this re spect, while she had such a writing in her possession, she would at once be raised from the situation of a menial ser vant, to be the wife of the appellant. Under such circum stances, the parties must have been more or less than mural, if they had employed all these opportunities in amusing each other with moral sentiments. And the Learned Counsel con cluded this part of his address, is the following appropriate words of Lord Stowell, in toe casco( Cadogan v. Cadogans: —" It may be possible that persons, of peculiar and eccen tric dispositions or habits, may live together, in such a man ner, without actual criminal connection ; end it is physically possible that persons may be In the same bed together with out criminal intercourse. Courts ofJusticr, however, cannot proceed on such grounds : finding person* in such a situa tion as presumes guilt generally, they must presume it in all cases attended with these circumstances. They cannot adopt the extravagant professions of Platonism, as the principles of their decisions." It being now four o'clock, the LORD CRANCRLLOR said, Mr. MoNcateve,the House will, with pleasure, take what re mains of your at gement on Tuesday morning. • 2 Haggard's Consistorisi Repotts, p.B.

The great increase of population In Brighton, within the last six years, has been ascertained by the numbers of men returned between the ages of IS and 43, who are liable to serve in the militia. in the year 1817 the number was IslBl, and in the present year 2140. We regret to learn, that by the fall of a tree near New Brunswick, on Sunday last, Mr. Mathews, the commedien, received some injury, and Mr. Price, the manager of the Park theatre, had his leg broken. These gentlemen wereon their way from Philadelphia to this city, in a private car riage. [The foregoing information is derived from the Philadelphia Gazelle. If true, it is singular that the news should not have been received hers before this late period]. —New York paper, April 2. BALTIMORE, APRIL 3.—The President:of the United States, in commemoration of the distinguished services of Major-General Fayette during the Revolutionary war, has directed that the fortress at the Narrows, heretofore called Fort Diamond, should be known hereafter by the name of Fort La Fayett.

WINDSOR,MAT B.—DRITRUCTIVIC FIRIL-00 Wednes day night, soon after toelyt o'clock, an alarming tire broke out in the premises of Mr. Disbrow, bookseller, in Castle-street, which in a little time was burned to the ground. The fi sines caught the adjoining, house, which was just fitted up for ,Ur. Rietard Cloile, corn-chandler. Notice was immediately given to the Foot and Cavalry Barracks for their assistance : their engines cause imme diately-, but they could not get water in time. This se cond 'house was consumed in a short time, the wind being high, and every thing so dry, the flames commu nicated to Mr. Roberts' house, a very large grocer's shop, which was soon consumed to the ground. The next adjoining house was Mr. Blunt's, saddler to hie Majesty, which was shortly gutted to the ground. Mei adjoiuinklimise to Mr.Blunt's was a widow woman's, of the name of Ward, the half of whose house fell in, and here the fire was got under. The engines hare been playing all day on the premises ; the wind shifted in the morning, otherwise many other houses would have shared the same fate. Great ilimaga is done to Mr. Knight, the bookseller's house, which is opposite, owing to the great heat of the flames ; and the engines were ' obliged to keep constantly playing on them. Great praise Is due to the Fusileers and the Life (Wards for their assistance in every respect—helping the people to move their goods, and guarding th.'m afterwards. *Chili was the most alarming tire that ever waiknown in Wind sor, and-many of the starters could lot save any thing.

Con voy is also to be afforded to the Straits of Calais and the North Sea, as likewise on their return. The vessels intend ed for this service are to sail at fixed periods ; but no pro• tection is to be afforded to such merchantmen as are toa•ded wholly, or in part, with warlike stores. ALEXANDRIA (Ea 'I PT) J A N. 9. —Several European na-. lions derive great advantages from the war between the Greeks and Turks, as the vessels of both are thereby hin dered from carrying oa the coasting trade in Egypt and the Archipelago, and hence the ships of Foreign nations, when they are not too larga, find advantageous freight*. In the course of last year 900 vessels arrived here, among which there were:- 292 Austrian-223 English-143 Sirilinian —76 Swe dish-57 French-54 Spanish-15 Danish-10 Russian —2 Dutch. Our Mackarel boats have brought on shore, during the week, three or four hundred fish at a time,• which hare so 'd at good prices ; nevertheless, the fishermen es. press a wish for more wind, which, they say, esuses the fish to leave the bottom, and to swim nearer the mutt, e of the sea.
