We learn from Saragossa that Gen. Milan, made a sally from Vich on the sth, but was repulsed by the Royalists, who besiege the place wok 4,000 men. The siege of Mequinensa is vigorously pinked by the Constitutional troops, and it is thought the garrison must follow the example of 'that of Dalapel, but its retreat will not be easy, and it cuu only retire into Lower Annan. A Flanders Mail arrived last night with Papers to the 23d iteitant. They state that Caneu, the capital of Caudle, had capitulated to the Greeks. The Paris Journals to the ettli inst. have arrived. An article of great interest at the present moment has appeared in the Etoile, an Evening Ministerial Paper. It expliins the recent depression in the French Funds to have originated in a rumour of the arrival of a courier from Madrid, with intel ligemp that the French Ambassador had been gross!, insulted; to which it was added, that the Freest t Ministers had, in contegaence, held an l:nar as ta y sitting, in which it was resolved to com the war without delay, and that three offi ceraaf high rank had received appointments in the army. To all these particulars it gives a distinct and positive contradiction; and further auerts, that a rumour of war has not even the ground of any new military movement to rest upon, fat., during a month twist no corps of troops has beeii sent to reinforce the French army on the frontiers. The tone of this article is decisive, and it is en titled to a more perfect reliance on its communien lions, when we consider the source from which it is derived. It affords no room to suppose that any dirpopition whatever to commence hostilities, exists no the port of the French Government. The same jotirnal states, that so far was the French Ambas sador, or soy Foreign Minister, from experiencing insult at Madrid, that a proposition made in the Cortes for sobjecting their residences to domiciliary visits was ►ejected, said one of a totally opposite nature adapted in its stead. Another motion fur demanding that France should be compelled to give a categorical answer to the question, " whether she considered herself to be in e mete of peace or war with Spain." was also diseased and rejected in the same Pitting. It war reported in Paris that Mitt♦ bad com pletely defeated the Army of the Faith, and war med them even into the French territory; that letters received frogs the frontiers up to the date of the I7th, do not make the slightest allusion to this affair, which must soon have obtaiued gene ral publicity, and from this circumstance we may conclude the Statement is unfounded. We have received a series of New York Paper., from the 20th of October to the 2d instant. The yellow fever had entirely subsided in that city, but at the date of the last accounts it raged with undi minished virulence at New Orleans. These Papers announce the failure of an expedition fitted out by some adventurers against the Spanish island of Porto Rico. The parties in this desperate under. biking appear to have been principally natives of the United States. A public meeting was held at Washington on the 23d ult. to decide on a proposi tion for raising money, by subscription, in aid of the Greeks; but," says The (omme►cial Adrereiser, " like the last meeting, however, although a great deal was said about sympathy,' the' blessings of liberty,' and the struggle between the Greeks and their oppressors,' we ure sorry to observe that the assembly broke up without deciding on any thing for their relief. Even a proposition to appoint a Committee, for the purpose of preparing an Address to be 'submitted toe general meeting of the citizens of Washington,' was lost on a motion of adjournment, which was curried. We ao not understand whence this supineoess on the part of men calling them selves Republicans proceeds. If all Europe had stood aloof at the period of our memorable struggle for independence, and no diversion had been made by oily foreign Power in our behalf, it is somewhat doubtful whether we should at this day have had to boast, as we are justly entitled to do, of those un alienable rights which are asserted in our Declara tion of Independence, and the enjoyment of whim is secured to us by our constitution.' We say' again, that although we do not think it would be good policy in our Government to interfere, yet we can see no good objection to such individuals us can afford it, subscribing for the purpose of sending the Greeks arms and ammunition." Bahia Papers to the 18th of September have been received. They contain an account of au en counter between the Constitutiouilf squadron of Bahia and the Auti-Constitutional squadron of Rio Janeiro.
