An extraordinary correspondent of the Megsbline Gazette pretends that M. de Closteauhriabd has somewhat astonished the diplomatists at Veiona by ggaleavouring to impose his opinions upon them, argitetially as from his personal situation he had no a.ght to form a part of the Congress, he brit* no 'Minister. fits iiropo-ittons, it is s.iil, have been generally rejected. It seems, however, that the Noble Is.-er of Fiance had at lent Occeeded in exciting some doubts in the minds of the Sove reigns, and that he has contributed to fortify the Emperdv of Russia and Noce Metternich in their previous dtiposition for a war against Spain. But the Duke of Wellington is said to have cooled these warlike indoors. and 'to' have surprised the Congress by talking to theta of charters und con atit ut ions.

CHRISTIANIA, NOVEMBER 7. In the sitting of the Storthiog yesterday, the King's message respecting the final payment of the Norwegian debt to Denmark was discu►sed. Majesty, by a preceding message. had proposed that toe Bank should advance the sum respired, and there was reason to believe that the onepeojel would he acceded to; bnt before the Swilling lied decided, offers were made to the Government fat it foreign loan, which quite agreed with the b. laid down by the Storthiog in its Add►ess of 25th July, 1821. The King therefore withdrew the . fir►t pro. possi by • mes►age of 9,1 November, and invit ed the Storiliing to deliberate on the new offer. This proposal of his Majesty was adopted by. great majority, and the Government consequently con tracts • loan with the house of H•mbro •nd Son for 2,400,000 dollars, on the terms that have been already published. _ _ Thin we shall be rid of a debt, attended with many inconveniences, as a foreign Government was the creditor. It is true we contract another debt instead, but the conditions are very reasonable; we have a very long period (49 years) for the gradual repayment, end may discharge the whole after ilia lapse of ten years, if the state of ear finances shall permit. The means placed at the disposal of the Government, and the surpliss of the revenue suffice to discharge the interests and annual payment or the new debt. The 'Bank remains untouched, and will be a valuable resource for the state, in case unforeseen events, bad Nutmeg, or other misfortunes should oblige us to have recourse to it. The Storthingfull of confidence in the wisdom and paternal care of the King has left the affair en tirely to his Majesty, and the whole transaction affords a 'fresh proof of the good undentaudiug between the King and the national representatives, and of the patriotism of the latter.

The only point in which all these conflicting opinions on the consequences of this new European Congress agree, is, that it will form a remarkable era in the annals of Europe, sod that whatever is discussed and resolved on, it will have to other 'object than to consolidate the Mo narchical principle in Europe and the Holy Alliance, founded on the 25th December, 1815, and con firmed at Aix-la-Chapelle, November IS, 18111. FRANKFORT, NOVZIMBER 17. Our Tribunals have frequently rejected, (as founded on usury) complaints of the non-delivery of public security, sold at a certain exchange for a future dote. The ease with which such bargains are made, as thespecislators make no real mde and purchase, but merely settle the difference on the day appointed, is very tempting; and many (es pecially Christian) houses hove been ruined.

It ' •ppeors that Torrijos will follow a different plan horn his predecessor, and that the three provinces will be the theatre of a sanguinary war. Two bat tailor's, making 1,200 men, were expected every mo ment it Vitoria. The Royalists commanded by Guerguet, Juranito, and Santo Ladron, were attacked on the 16th, in the mountains between Salinos and Vittorio, by a column under Julian Sanchez, who was at first obliged to retreat and seek reinforce ments: having received them, he attacked a second time, dislodged the Royalists, killed about fifty, arid burnt a village, the Alcade of which informed him of the strength of the enemy. No other action has yet taken place between the troops of Torrijos and the Royalists, who received daily reinforce ments, and were impatiently expecting General O'Donnell. An express just arrived from Pampeluna states, that Torrijos was expected there on the 20th, and that by his order the Members of the Municipality who were arrested in the late tumult had been released. Letters from Saragossa highly praise Velum, the new Commandant in Arragon, and soy that Mins, after some actions with the troops of Erolles, in the Conque de Tremp, has pushed his recon noissance on the 12th to Organjs, while Milieus set out on the 10th from Vich, with 5,000 men towards Olot and Campredon.

THE BRITISH PRES S. LONDON, MONDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1822. Paris Papers and letters up to Friday last have arrived. The French Funds fell on Thursday to 88 f. 60 c. It is presumed that the decline was the result of gloomy accounts received by express from London. The news in the Paris Papers was favour •ble to the peace of the Continent, and as such cal culated to raise them. That the Urgel Regency is on the eve of resigning its functions, and that its cause is hopeless, is asserted io the Paris letters without reserve ; though the Journals do not, by any means, supply a clear history of it', expiring strug gles. MINA, as it is admitted by the Ministerial Journals, has made himself master of the city of Ur gel, but they add that the garrison. 1,000 strong, had retired to the citadel. This force is known, from other and more impartial sources, not to exceed half that number; but even these, according to the Coo of Thursday, have been abandoned by their leader, the Baron d'EROLLIS. He is said at first to have entertained the intention of defending the fort to the last extremity, but had since retreat ed towards the valley of Andorre, a territory the right to which is in dispute between France and Spain, and bad sent on the records of the Regency to Llivis, which place is now described as a neutral State, but which is at all events wholly surrounded by the French territory. Bet the commercial letters quoted by the Constitutiomtel, place the Regency in • still more desperate condition : they state that General MINA had gained a decisive vie. tory over the remains of the Army of the Faith, and that all those troops who had neither been taken prisoners, nor joined the ranks of the Con stitutionalist'', had taken refuge at Llivia. Mere than half the Baron's troops, it is said, have joined N/INA, who has also captured large stores of arms and ammunition provided by the Regency. MINA'S army in Catalonia is stated at 30,000 men. Gene ral O'DoNtist.t., who, next to the Baron, may be considered the chief stay of the Regency, was, by the list accounts, at Irati, and up to the 18th last had made no hostile movement. This, though an imperfect our, is the best account of the state of mi litary operations on the frontier. Bayonne Papers to the 23d ult. arri►ed last night. They confirm the account of the arrival of General Toaat.sos at Vittoria, where he was received with every demonstration of joy. He was expected at Pumpelun• on the 20th. On the 18th he addressed at Vittoria a Proclamation to the inhabitants of the sth District, in which he charges the Army of the Faith with • long catalogue of crimes, including ' robbing the temples. The Army of the Faith, we presume. derives its name somewhat in the way of /stews a nom heeled°. Letters from Verona of the 19th last state, that the rising of Congress is definitively fitted for the Bth instant. It is at last resolved that there shall be oo general declaration, or official document, with regard to Spain, issued by that Assembly ; even the expedient of addressing separate notes to that Power by each of the members is said to be abandoned. All the Ambassadors accredited to the Court of Madrid will receive instructions to 'remain in that capital only so long as a particular course of proceeding is a►siatained by the Spanish Government ; and, that deviated haw, iinmedi 'ately to demand their passports.
