It was commanded by Don Fernandez; Constitu. tional Governor of Carclotta. Each soldier had four packets of cartridgee, end there were 2,000 cartridges in reserve.

We have received the Paris Papers of Sunday, Bayonne Papers to the 25th ult. -and German Papers to the .‘2oth, extracts from which will' be found in our preceding columns. A Telegraphic Dispatch announces the capitulation of St. Se bastian on the . 27th. The garrison, however, were not to give up the possession either of the town or citadel till the 3d of October, so that, the capitulation would seem to be conditional, and it s execution to..be dependent on some contingency •w II the French have not yet thought proper to explain. In . a long Bulletin, Count Guir.t.tmixoT has at length given 'Rime details 'of the brilli , an t t er b m u i t na u te n i f l o i r i: tunate enterprise of Iticao, which the defeat of his little arm., and in his own cap. tivity.. His troops appear to have fought with the. utmost bravery against a superior French force, and to have maintained with •-unexampl e d steadiness, on the 1:lth ult., a retreating conflict of fourteen hours, at the conclusion of which, though their loss amounted to five . hundred then, their columns were unbroken. Notwithstanding the fatigue of his soldier, Itrrtr.a availed himself of the night to make a masterly movement, and succeeded in reachibg and occupying the. village of iodar, from whence it would have been in his power either to attempt ajnitction with a part of HA u,Arrtnok's army tuntoned about Übeda, to efect,his retreat to the Sierra Morena, or to Carthagena, by the mountains of Swan. ItrEnO had gained this position with his 2,000 faithful fUlloWers, at eleven in the forenoon of the 14th ; b ut in the very moment of that , apparent secu. rity which they had so nobly earned, before they had enjoyed any repose after the excessive fa tignes of the preceding day and night, freSh corps of the French, Which had been 'milled forward from another quarter by LieUt.-General 'FOIBSA C LAToun, suddenly and unexpectedly made its appearance, advancing rapidly :to the attack. The: ill-fated ConStitutionalists • hastily formed themselves into two squares; but, worn down by fatigue, dispirited by the appearance or a new enemy, and convinced, as they must have been by that event, that they were surrounded on all sides, it is not matter of surprise that the first square was broken by the charge of the French cavalry, and that the second took to flight. Even then, wtve ver,RlEGo'S force does not seem to have been utterly destroyed ; and though the French allege that it is dispersed in the mountaini, the fugitives will probably form a guerilla, which may still bp of some service to their unfortunate country. It is remarkable, that in all this affair with RIEno, neither BALL.tsrEnns nor any part of his troops appear to have acted against him. A degree of mYsterY still hangs ov er the transaction, which we have no means of elucidating.. EXPRESS'FROM PARIS.

SEPt; 24.—Our letters from Port St. Mary, of the '2oth, state, that the confusion and terror which reign in Cadiz cause them in one day to take one hundred different measures. The junta form ing the defence do not know where to get men or trIPIIIIS. On the 18th, at night, they closed the ports, and pressed the sailors in the English style. The sailors resisted, and a number of the Militia have paid clear • for the Constitutional cause. As Col-Money, independent of "the forced loan of eight Millions of reaux, which has.been extorted from the merchants and inhabitants, a. new Royal Ordinance (for all is exacted in the name of the unhappy Ferdinand) requires of the merchants and proprietors to furnish 1,20000 reals'(3oo,ooo franks,) every five days. for the service of the troops. This has caused the inhabitants to emigrate to Gibraltar, or to the Ports occupied by the French. The little flotilla of the Cortes is commanded by Dionesio Capas. des hasfal len in disgrace. Quiroga cannot obtain any employ .from the Cortes, and he is playing a part by assembling in the streets of Cadiz different Winds of vagabonds, whom he calls the Sacred tiattalion !of Tragalista. They have thrown into prison in Murcia sixty ofhder•s (Spanish) of the corps of Riego, accused of beionging to the army of•Ballssteros, and of Laving violated their oaths. The Royalist volunteers of the little town of Mule, assisted by the peasantb, surrounded in a wood GOO Infautly and 200 cavalry, which 'were cut off'from the corps of Riego, and forced them to lay •down their arms. (Postscript to the F,lcile.) IVe have this instant received letters from Port St. Mury. l'he Duke of Infantado has arrived, and has dlrfed with the Dake of Angoulerne. One bun dred- bombs have already been thrown into Cadiz. The Vice. Admiral Duperre, to whom difficulties and obstacles had been suggested, has answered that the word impNsible' is not French.

Since the arrival of Vice-Admiral Duperr4 he has perfectly seconded the intentions of his Royal Highness. Yesterday Rear-Admiral Ro tours laid the Centaur, on board of which ship lie was, facing Fort Santi Petri, and attacked it by an angle. Ile was seconded by the Trident and a frigate ; but these two ships could not participate - long in the action, because the current was too strong, and their anchors could-Hot find a, good ground, and they only could take a position. —Near the end of the combat the Cestaur sus tained nearly the whole of the affair. During two hours and a quarter the Tort of Santi Petri was struck by 3,000 balls from our ships, while the land batteries fired 1,000. The enemy, affrighted, hoisted three white standards and sur rendered. We have taken from 150' to• 200 men, forming the garrison of that Fort.— We lost one artilleryman killed in the land battery, and three killed in our ships, which have not received any damage. The balls from the fort passed over the rigging. The Vice- Admiral Duperre' has not yet sent his written re port ; but during the night arrived a Lieutenant of the Trident, sent by Baron Itotours, and he has given a verbal account to the Duke of An gouleme of what had passed up to the moment when the troops were disembarked to occupy Sant; Petri, the possession 'of which gives us the key to the Isle of Leon, and prevents all further arrivals to Cadiz. It was by this road that Diego got out of, and Quiroga entered Cadiz. This conquest, besides, gives us the means to penetrate the Island of Leon, and to protect the. debarkation. —lt is positively asserted that the moment , this fort was taken the inhabitants of the island threw themselves into Cadiz. We have erected bat teries opposite the little fort called the 'Tele graph, which will soon silence its tiring, and protect the debarkation. From this fort we can with facility reduce. Torregorda, and. intercept all communication with Cadiz and the Island of Leon. A flying bridge, thrown half-way over the river from Santi Petre, affords a free passage to the island of Leon. All the windows fir the houses of St. Mary, are parois6es,and they sing Te Drum. His Royal highness has given the necessary orders that Riego should be given over to the Spanish Authorities, and delivered over to justice (or tried by the law), I vouch for the tru of this.
