after having joined at Talavera de la Reyna the advanced guard of Gen. Valli!), will proceed by Truxillo to Istretnadura. Having arrived in that province, it will operate according to circum stances, either to march on Iladajos, or to join the first column at Seville. The ijovements of these two columns will commence to day. The troops of the reserve will remain at Madrid, and - will be put provisionally under the command of Lieutenant-General Viscount Castoz. With the exception of the division of Curassiers, there will only remain in Madrid a corps of 5000 men, composed of three battalions and a regiment of cavalry of the Guard, and a part of the division of Autichamp. The Ist corps and the remainder of the troops will be encamped in the environs, so that they may be immediately united if circumstances require it. 3IADRID, JUNE 2. Mx LORD—III my report of the 26th May I had the honour to inform your Excellency that his Royal Highness having authorised the Count Molitor to suspend his movement on Valence, and to assist the operations of the 4th corps, the division of Pamphile La Croix will pass the Segre at Balaguer, ,and manoeuvre in the direction of Cervera. The first brigade will advance to Agramon, where they will find about the 25th the troops of Baron proles. General Pamphile La Croix received information from Manresa, that that town was occupied, by Donadieu., and that Winans and Llobera were retiring on Bar celona. According to this state of things, Gene ral Molitor decided immediately to march on Valence, with orders to General Pamphile La Croix to' follow his movement. Gen. Molitor arrived on. the 29th at Casp6, and on the following day was to proceed to Alcanez, to re connoitre a Constitutional corps, who followed in that direction 1500 Royalists. After having caused that corps to retire, and rallied his troops, who passed the Ebro at IVlequinesza and Caspe, he has marched a party of them by the difficult route which leads to Alcanez on the high road to Valence, while the main body of his army marches for Daroca. The Count Molitor will proceed rapidly on Valence, where he is impatiently expected by the numerous corp,s of Royalists who are in the environs of that place, and by a great party of the population.—The Count Molitor has left troops at Sarragossa, at which place the Citadel is in a goon state of defence, and, which forms the base, of his line of operations, and has procured to the Spanish General who commands in the province of Ara gon, every means to continue the organization of that district. COUNT GUILLEMINOT; REPORT OF MARSHAL DUKE CONEGLIANO% VIM, MAY 30,--On the 29th I went to re connoitre the positions of Mataro and Granolles. Today I went to Vich. The following is the position of the division of Donadieu:—That General, who will follow Mina in the Cer. daine, if necessary, is this night at Berga.-7 The Brigade Saint Priest and the Baron Eroles are also in pursuit of Mina, The Colonel Count Astorga commands at Manresa. The garrison of' that place will unite with that of Vich. At the'attack of Vich, Gen. Tarraguier was seriously wounded. liis loss will be greatly felt by the enemy. Five or six hundred men of the division of Curial continue to occupy Mataro. The 9th division continues to form, a Camp of Observation before Figueirase SOLZONA, JUNE I.—Mina, pursued night and day, will not escape at Berge, but by miracle. He has thrown himself on a hard precipice.— Without giving his soldiers the least rest he marched them over the highest mountains near Seo Urgel.„ where he arrived this night.- 7 - His intentions are to regain Cordone, by Saint Laurent. According to all the - reports I have re ceived, Mina's army is extinguished, and com pletely disorganized, and ho ravages the country he passes through, and forces the inhabitants to give him provisions. DONADIEU. (From La Quoti4liennc, June 9.) On'the 31st May, Mina arrived at Soo d'Urgel with his division of about 1200 to 2,500 men, and it is given as certain that the Baron Eroles is continually following him.

Every fresh arrival of intelligence from France and Spain serves now to confirm • the belief that the contest will only be terminated by the utter failure of the French, or by the entire over throw of the Constitutional party in Spain.— The latter branch of the alternativei not withstanding all that has hitherto passed, will not be so soon or so easily effected as seemed from sore p recent circumstances to be at one time probable.. It is to be regretted - that the judicious' and patriotic course recommended in the letter of Count ABISBAL tO MONTIJO seems to have been equally rejected by his countrymen and by the French. The Spanish Regency, the Spanish Consti tutionalists, and the French invaders,appear all to, be obstinately determined against making conces- I sions of any kind, and to calculate on nothing less than the unqualified triumph of themselves, and the entire ruin of their adversaries. — In THE SUN of the 30th ultimo, we said, " The only • circumstance that seems. to de tract from the character' of the recent pro ceeding of Count Mini:4AL, is the publicity which has been given to his correspondence with MoN TIJO. 13ut MONTIJO is (was) himself a Constitu tionalist; and it is only fair to presume that ABISBAL did not intend that his letter should be published." From the Declaration of ABISBAL, of May 17th (see our Foreign Intelligence), we are glad to find that our Conjecture was right, that his letter Icas published without his knowledge, and that he remains firm in his alle giance to the Spanish Government. We have received Cape Town Gazettes to the 2(1 March, but their contents are unimportunt. We extract the following from the Chronic* of this morning, merely for the purpose of chew ing to our Readers how easily the most clumsy fabrications may be palmed, even upon people of sense, when their judgment has been warped by the het of political , animosities. One woujd almost believe that the Correspondent of the Chronicle is a humourist, who has adopted this method of trying the extent of his friend's. cre dulity ! " SECRET TREATY OF VER.ONA. " The following State Paper (in French) Was communicate() to us by a Correspondent, with an assurance of his having ground for believing in its authenticity. We publish it as we rezeived it, without giving any positive opinion of our own on the subject 'The undersigned Plenipotentiaries, specially. authorised by their Sovereigns to make some additions to. the treaty of the Holy Alliance, after having exchanged their respective fall powers, have agreed upon the following articles:-- ` Art. 1. The High Contraeting Parties, well convinced that the system of Representative' Government is as incompatible with the Alonarclueal principle as the maxim" of , the Sove reignty, of the. PeoPle is opposed to the principle o f Divin e ',tight, engage in the most solemn manner to employ all their means, mid unite all their efforts to put an end to,the system of Representative Government whenever it is knovrn - to &ist in the States of Euro2e, and to prevent it from being introduced into those States were it is not known. Art. 2. As it cannot be disputed that the freedom of the Press is, the most efficacious means employed by the pre tended defenders of the rights of nations, to injure those of . Princes, the High Contracting Parties reciprocally promise to adopt every possible measure fot its suppression, not only In . their own States, but in all others in Europe. Art. 3. Being of opinion, that religious principle* are those which may still. powerfully contribute to maintain nations in that state of passive obedience which they owe to their Princes, the High Contracting Parties declare it to be their intention to support each in his own states, the measures which the Clergy, with a view, to their own interest, aye enabled to carry into effect far the purpose of maintaining the authority. of Princes, and they, in common offer their acknowledgments to the Pope for the part he has, already taken in this respect, soliciting his constant co,aperation,with a view to the subjection of nations. ‘. Art. 4. The situation, of Spain and. Portugal uniting un- I :fortunately all. the. circumstances, to,Which this Treaty refers,_ the Iligh Contracting Parties, in confiding to France the task of putting. an. end to them, assure her of assistance which may least compromise them with their. people and with the Freneh people, by meal* ofqs.sabsidy on the part of the two Emperors of 110,0011,1100 francs each per annum, reckoning from the day of the ratifirati,on,of this treaty, and during the whole term, of the war. . • Art. 5. In.order to effectuate in the Peninsula the restora. don of the state of affairs existing previous to the Revolution of Cadiz; and to secure the entire fulfilment of the views point ed out in, the stipulations of this Treaty, the Iligh Contracting Partiqs give a reciprocal assurance, that sp long as their ob ject shall remain unaccoMplished, they will, rejecting every other idea of utility or cipecliency, cause to he expedited the most precise orders to all the Authorities in their States, and to all their Agents in foreign parts, to the end that the most per feet agreement may be established between those of the four contracting Powers, with reference to the object of this Treaty. Art. 0, This Treaty shall be renewed with thealterations required for its Object, and adapted:te.the circumstances of the moment, either 'at a new Congress or at one of 'the Courts of the High Contracting Parties, as inOn, as the war with Spain shall have terminated.

The follnwing are the passages to which we allude, —(Lap of Nations, Book ii. c. 6, and Book c. 7):— NEUTRALITY. " As long as a Neutral' Nation wishes securely to. el joy the advantages of her Neutrality, she must in all things shew a strict impartiality toward the Belligerent Powers; for should she' favour one of the parties to the prejudice of doe other, she cannot complain of being treated by hitn as an adherent and confederate of his enemy. Her neutrality would be a frau4, t. lent neutrality, of which no nation will consent to be the dupe. " The 'Nation or Sovereign ought not to suffer the Chirp's to do any injury to the subjects of another. State, much less to era 'that State itself; and this not only becauselio Sovereign ought to' permit those who are under his command to violate the precepts of the haw of Nature, which forbids all injuries, but also because Nations ought mutually to respecteach other and tonbstainfrom all growl!, from all injury. trom all wrong. " If the offended State has in her power the individual who has done the injury, she may, without scruple, bring, 4im to justice and punish him. If he has escaped and returned to his own country, she ought to apply to his Sovereign tohave justice done in the case. " And sinbe the latter ought not to suffer his subjects to m 0... lest the subjects of other States, or to do them an injury, much less to give open and audacious oji:nce to Foreign Powers ; he ought to compel the transgressor to make reparation for the damage or injury, if pogible, or to boa on hint an exemplary ! punishment. " The Sovereign who refuses to cause reparation to be made, for the damage done by his subjects, or to punish the offender, renders himself, in some measure an accomplice its the injury, and becomes responsible ftn: We do not !nee% to controvert the reasoning of MATTEL on this important subject ; but we do not think that it will be difficult to show t,hat it has been improperly appkied to the measure at present adopted in this country its favour Of Spain. if the People, as as the GoNet;n -,t aunt ) ig must ) in all things 4 she a ftrict frivasc!. ticdity toward the Belligerent. Powers," it is, as much a breach of English neutrality 'to furnish the, French Government with a Loan of English, money, for the purpose of en abling that Government to increase the vigour of its military, operations against Spain, as it is to furnish the Spanish Government with Egglish arms, for the purpose of enabling Spain to, resist the aggression,. of France. English subjects, lend their money to France, because they are satisfied with the security, whick,F,rance offers for their advances. Other English'subjects give 'a portion of their money, or of commodities, to Spain, because they approve of the cause in which Spain is em barked. The effect of both these proceedings, on the part of English subjects, is.precisely similar,' viz. th4t of aiding and assisting the respective Bea.' gerents. The motive of the parties subscribing to the donation to Spain ikat least a,s good as that of the parties subscribing to the loan to' France. 4 .* Strict impartiality" would, require that even a loan should be withheld from.a, nleu tral Nation to a Belligerent Power.

A consmercial letter from Rt..Petersburgh by the last mail says, it is now ascertained that the duty paid on sugars in 1821, i. e• during the , pe riod that all descriptions were admitted, was above seven, millions of rubles in, the capital alone ; while, in the year IV2, i.e. u d der the restrictive system, the entire duty hardly ex ceeded one million of rubles.

L. B. ALLEN, Esq. presided during the investigation, which lasted from half-past ten till,,nearly four. It presented various circumstances tending to inculpate the 'prisoners and anot h er man, of ihe name of Pritchard, not yet taken ; but the interest which might have been felt in these particulars is in a great measure destroyed. by this following confessien . made by Stof fell two days after his apprehens ion, which Mr. Allen judi- • ciously kept frorti the Public eye until a train of evidence was established which completely eiibr&ced the conduct of the three prisoners, and of Pritchard, who is yet at liberty, but for whom a large reward will immediately be offered • Philip Steffen made this confession :—I was one of the men in 'the murder; there were three more besides myself,. Thomas Scott oThowyer.lane, was one ; Willis Was not. One; the others. I do not know ky name, Nit they live upon IValweirth Common.' I met with them at the Prince of Wales.

On the Tuesday we met at the Prince of Wales abOut half-pastsix, and after having a pint of , beer amongst us at the door—one of the plaiterers went in for the beer, and brOught it out t t i us: Here it Was agreed that Scott' should give the parcel, and that another should hold the old • woman.; We went tOwardsC;laphan: by the South !,itnibeth road. . It was . agreed as we went along, tat if Mni. Bell Was at home we were to rob t he h ouse . We 'arrived at the house about half-past seven o'clock ; Scott knocked at the door.

Mrs. Richards opened the door;, Scott asked if that wag Mrs. RiclardS's hOilse ; she re plied yes ; he said he had a parcel for Mrs. Bell ; she asked how' much there was to .pay ; Scott said a shilling ; she replied she .would pay no such sum.' By thiktime the plasterers had come ently towards the hpoite.

I went, and took the poker, by the desire of the plas terers, in My hand, I opened the door and put my head out, and, seeing nobody, cried out, " All is right." Scott then put out the candles, and we all came away and shut the door after uk. We then' went two on the one side of the road and two on the other, till, we cattle to the Bedford Anna, and then we joined all fohr together, and turned 'down 'liove-lane. When we were going down the Lane, I remarked; " the poor old crea ture a'nt dead?" but received np answer. We walked down the bane without talking much.

We'came altogether . cef foot to the Mint. The plasterers; as We we r e going to wards town, said they knes a shop where we could 'dispoie of the'things, and they took us to an old iron shop in the I\Bnkian die rt hand icicle of the way. We got there about nine o'clo c k. When wt got to the shop we produced the Things alqig . ether And sold them' for twenty-five shillings. We were to receive the money next night. 'A man in the shop houghs the things of us and his wife and two.children were having their supper in the back shop. The man looked at the articles, and aske d uethe price, but did not ask ukhow we came by them.

The 'plasterers chanod one of the sovereigns for die liquor, snd agreed to divide their owls share when they got home. We were all theWorie for liquor; I don't know what became of. the 'rest since 'that time, and I 'don't know what happened to myself, but the next morning I found myself in bed at a public-house In Suffolk-street.

I staid there about an hour and a half, and then came back to Wilks's, and dined there, and afterwards lay down on the bed. The plasterer to whom Scott gave the watch to be' sold the old iron shop, gave it to me at the publtc.house to dis Pose of.'
