However, as we find, that, by some "extrac.

The Corunna Mail, to which we alluded yester day, and the contents Of which we have now in serted, brings down the information from that port to the 18th, hut conveys no very 'recent or material news from the Pyrenees. The sieges of Pamplona and Sebastian appear now to be regu larly commenced ; 15,000 men arc employed .the former, and the batteries which had been erected against this strong place began to play on the 6th. Other heavy guns have been landed at Reba, and, new and more powerful means of mock Will Of course shortly be employed, from wliieb; and the dispirited state of the gtirrison, We hope we arc not too sanguine in anticipating its speedy reduction. ' The, late of St. Sebastian could not, we imagine, he long delayed. --Of the army with which the intrusive King tried the battle at Vittoria, and which on that memorable day consisted of 60,000 4 r00t trod 7000 hdrse, we are told, only 17,000 of the former, and 3000 of theiatter remain—the rest have been sa, crifteed on thealt.Ar of ruthless tyranny and law less ambition ! • With regard to other points announced in these Papers, it is more than probable that the zeal and enthusiastn of. the Cormina Editors outrun their intelligence. The entrance into Bayonne, and the Deputation mentioned from that City, are, we fear, only creatures of the brain—excusable, in deed, because the brain is heated frmn an honest and patriotic heart. The few circumstances stated, relative to the retreat of SUCH ET from the Xucar arc more in teresting: His destruction of the bridges, mining of the roads, and dismantling of the batteries, is a clear demonstration that he never contemplates a return, but gives up the cause of French do- . minion in Spain as utterly lost and hopeleSs. He is followed by many pursuers, but they do nut seem to. he close enough at his heels, though .there is a paragraph which would in duce us to think that rAto had come up with and attacked the rear under 1-Imusre. We confess we shall he disappointed if these des perate oppressors shall have the. dexterity to effect their escape without tasting the ven geance of acountry they have so horribly mangled and filled with blood. This, howeVer, is ,only. a natural feeling; all our political desires are &ids fied by the glorious .regolts of that immortal achievement which has rescued and liberated a great nation from the fangs of despotism and the miseries of slavery. It would have pleased us that such monsters as could exe cute that refinement of diabolism by which were murdered the wretched peasants and fishermen of Guiteria, should have tasted the ' punishment their atrocious crimes deserved, and . that Stivturr himself should have been called to answer for the massacre of hundreds of Ivo, men and children. on the' beach of Tarragona; but amid the mighty sources 'of gratulation we poqsess, SVC will not repine even should the in diction of justice 'be deferred' for a season, and these .blood-thirsty caitiffs Make gadd their ' re- treat.
