•!, • . arms against the traitor Silveyra. His regiment, which had been - made prisoners at the affair near Chaves, was obliged most unwillingly to follow the rebels. The brigadier Pamplona, who was also taken prisoner in that action, arrived last night at eight o'clock at Verin, accompanied by a Major of the 12th regiment of cavalry, a sergeant, and six soldiers, who were or dered to'guard him by Silveyra, but who have all abandoned the rebel, resolved to support the Constitutional cause. The remainder of the troops of Silveyra are dispersed, and he him self with a small body of men escaped, by taking refuge in Rirandela, at the same time ordering the evacuation of Chaves, and the removal of the artillery and ammunition to Braganza ; he will, however, be speedily pursued, and before long will doubtless expiate his crime by an ignominious death on the scaffold. I have not yet received' any further information respecting the numerous priests who have dishonoured their sacred office, and profaned that holy Catholic religion, which is alike pro fessed by the Constitutional Portuguese and the Spaniards. I seize this occasion to announce, that a treaty has been con cluded between Spain and Portugal, by which they bind them selves reciprocally to expel from their territories the factious deserters and refugees.

Amidst the shouts of joy which resound from every quarter of the city, I have the satisfaction to announce to your Excel lency, that we may now consider ourselves as entirely freed from the faction by which we were threatened. The gallant Colonel D. Ant on i o Bazan, provisional Commander of the Proviice of Castellon, while on his march from that point on . Valencia, encountered between Murviedro and Almenara the Rebels as sembled to the number of 11,000 men, with three pieces of ar tillery, and ranged in order of battle, with the avowed intention of disputing the passage. The Colonel had only 1,000 men under his command, but all of tried valour. In less than ten minutes he gained a complete victory,—a victory, perhaps, unparalleled in the course of the eventful struggle which Spain is now making for the defence of her liberties. The result of this memorable day has been 800 of the enemy's farcef killed an d 200 taken pri soners, w i t h 1000 muskets and ammunition waggons. But perhaps the greatest a& vantage which we shall derive from this victory is, that the remnant of the faction are struck with panic, and dispersed in all directions. This affair took place at nine in the morning; and at eight this evenin g t hi s victorious column arrived hsre, and assembled round the stone of the Constitution, where it raised its songs of triumph.

Mina frequently visits all the points on the frontiers where his troops are posted. The forces destined for the defence of Barcelona are estimated at 900 regulars and 15,000 militia. The ramparts are mounted with cannon, and the fosses round the town filled with water." We received also by the same Express private intelligence from Paris which possesses considerable interest. It appears still to be the general opinion among the well in. informed in the French capital, that neither Pampeluna nor San Sebastian will be besieged, and that the French army will halt on the Ebro. We may then begin to hear of Generals DALLAsTEnos and Monitx.o. The views and projects of niA continue to be the subject of numerous conjectures and considerable uneasiness ; but this skilful and bold Com mander is not likely to remain long inactive, for it ap pears that General Count de COETLOSQUET passed through Pau on the 10th instant, on his way to Perpig nan, whether he was proceeding with the utmost dispatch. It is believed that he is the bearer of orders from the Army under Marshal MoarcEY to enter Spain immediately ; and should such prove the case, the Army under MINA will in stantly invade the French territory, if this event has not already taken place, which previous advices render not impro bable. The contract with M. OUVRARD for supplying the French Army with provisions and supplies has, it is under stood, been annulled, for two cogent reasons ;-- one, that the contract had been found very extravagant, and the other that the supply has been ill provided. The reported advance of Russian troops gains ground ; and rumour says, that the Emperor ALEXANDER is going to the waters of Bud-Ems in Germany. FRENCII FUNDS.-APRIL 17. Five per Cents.

Her Royal• Highness the Duchess of ANGotr- LEME evinces more activity at Bordeaux than has yet been displayed by the martial Prince her bur band since he entered Spain. It has been sar castically said of the Duchess that she is the only male of her Family ; and it must be allowed that she seems determined to establish her pretensions to the energy and spirit which have hitherto been thought characteristic of the rougher sex ! She is acting the part of the SOVEREIGN, while the Duke, her husband, is , playing that of the Gene ,ralissimo of her forces ! The journey of the DUke ,d'ANcour,EmE to join the Army, was distinguished by nothing like the pomp and bustle of the following scene, in which her Royal Highness appears to have in one morning reviewed the troops at Bordeaux, and to have received in state all the Civil and Military Authorities, and all the Public Bodies, down even to the Schools, including, we should imagine from the enumeration, nearly one half of the inhabitants ! There is much, however, of sound policy in all this. Nothing captivates the French more than parade ; and nothing impresses them with greater respect for their Rulers, dr convinces them more of their capacity for Government, than the execution even of the most unimportant movements with rapidity and dis patch. The Duchess, no doubt,. has found it necessary to get up a spectacle, in the preset. state of the public mind in France. ( From the Etoile of Thursday evening) " BOURDEAUX, APRIL 13. " BULLETIN OF THE ROYAL FALACE. --- " Her Royal Highness the Duchess of AN GOULEME passed in review this morning the Guards on duty, and a detachment of 150 men of the 19th regiment of light infantry, stationed in the Palace-yard. She expressed her satisfac tion at their fine appearance. " At 11 o'clock, Madame received. the Gene ral commanding the divisor, the First President, the Prefect, and General de la BOURDONNAGE, commanding the Department; the Mayor, the Lieutenaut•t.Teneral of Police, and the Officers composing the Staffs of the Gendarmerie, and of the 19th regiment of light infantry ; the Ge neral Council of the Department, the Mayors of the Arrondissement of Bordeaux, their assis tants, and various deputations from the towns of Libourne, Reole, and Lesparre; the Com missaries of Police, the Director, and several Officers of the Marine ; the Academy; the Society of Medicine, the Secondary Royal School, the Chirurgico-Medidal Society, the Philomathic and Botanical Societies ; the Royal Brotherhood of Montuzet, the Rector of St. Andre and his vicars; the Directors of the Deaf and Dumb Institution, and a great number of persons belonging to the Civil, Military, and Judicial Orders." We have 'this morning received, by the German Mail, accounts from Odessa to the 24th March. It was thought that upon the whole Russia would be satisfied with the answer given by the Porte to Lord STRANGFORD, and that a Russian Minister will soon be sent to Constantinople. We have also received, this morning, Bayonne Papers of the 10th inst. but as the news from the French Army, previously received, is to the 15th instant, the intelligence in the Bay onne Papers is comparatively unimportant.— There was considerable dissatisfaction amongst the troops at Bayonne, in consequence of the badness of their provisions, and the irregularity with which their wants are provided for. The pledge of the Duke d ' ANGOULEME to watch over the wants of the soldiers has not been very faith. fully fulfilled ! {FROM A CORRESPONDENT.] STOCK EXCIIANGE, Twelve o'clock.—Consols opened this morning at 76f, at which price they remain steady, w ith little business doing. FOREIGN MARKET.—Spanish Bonds opened this morning at 301 if I. Colombian Stock has experienced a considerabl e rise within these few days, owing to the expectation that the Loan 'will be ratified. Our Readers will see from our Parliamentary Report that Ministers have engtiged to lay be fore both Houses of Parliament, on Monday, some further diplomatic documents relative to the subject of the late negociations. I« the Lords the Earl of LIVERPOOL stated that His MAJESTY'S Ministers are in possession of in- formation, which proves that . French gold rens employed for the purpose of stirring up insur rection in Spain; and that the complaints of the Cabinet of Madrid on this head are of course well-founded. Every day, therefore, some fresh circumstance transpires to aggravate the guilt of France, and to convict her of a degree of perfidy which we at one time should have expected least of all from the restored Govern ment of the Bounnows! In the House of Com mons, Mr. JAMES MACDONALD gave notice of his intention to bring the subject of the 4te Nego ciations before the House, probably in the shape of a Motion for an Address to the Crown. Last night, in the, H ouse o f C ommons, the Navy and Army Pensions' Bill was read a third time and passed, as was also the Merchant Ves sels' Apprentices Bill, after the theoretical and ineffectual opposition offered to the measure by Mr. RICARDO had been withdrawn by that lion. Member. We have received inforniation from a quarter on which we can rely, that from 80 to 100,000 Russians are marching to the aid of the French Ultras, and that they will arrive by ,way of Dantzic.—( liforning Chronicle.) On Thursday evening, Mr. Ews, the King's Messenger, arrived at the Foreign Office with dispatches from Vienna. Yesterday the Duchess of GLOUCESTER spent the morning with the KING. Prince LEOPOLD paid his dutiful respects to his MAJESTY. Yesterday Count MUNSTER had audience of his MAJESTY. 'The Duke of GLOUCESTER rode out on Thurs. day, for the first time since his indisposition. Sir CHARLES BAMPYLDE was yesterday in the same state as the day preceding. On Tuesday, the 15th inst. the mortal remains of the late EDWARD BERKELEY PORTBIAN, Esq. during many years M.P. for the county of Dorset, were conveyed to Bryanston House, attended, from within the last three miles of that place. by all the neighbouring resident gentlemen in their carriages, by a numerous body of his tenantry, and by a large concourse of persons on horseback and on foot, all testifying, by their very marked respect, the regret un i versally felt for the loss of their most upright friend. On Wednesday, the 16th instant, the body was deposited in thee family vault at Bryanston, privately, as had ever been wished, and attended only by a part of his afflicted family and servants. NEW ARGYLL Roosts..—The very numerous audience which attended Mr. HAW ES'S Annual Concert last night, at this place, is a gratifying proof of the esteem in which his private and professional character is deservedly held. The Great Room was full, and many persons, of both sexes, were hardly able to procure seats...-. The Orchestra was most amply supplied with the best Performers that the Metropolis can afford. A printed Apology announced the ina bility of Miss STEPHENS to attend on ac emit of indisposition, but stating that Miss PATON had kindly consented to sing two Songs in. stead of those allotted to Miss STEPHENS. It stated also, that on account of Mr. J. B. SALE'S indisposi tion Mr. T. WELcit would assist. The audience had abundant reason to be satisfied not only with these substitutions, but with the general merits of the Concert. The chief singers were Mrs.SALMO N , MISS PATON, MI SS G OODALL , MI S* VENES, BEL LAMY, SAPIO, DURUSET, If.twts, TEItRAEL, and the others, were all persons of knqwn talents. We have not space to select particular excellencies, but we must not omit to notice that the finale " God save the King," verse and full chorus, was sung with loyal fervour, and received by the audience with correspondent emotion and hearty applause. We are informed that the Masquerade at the Argyle Rooms on Wednesday next is likely to be the most brilliant that has been given for many years.—CHARLES Wit/ WIT, the Wine- Merchant, of the Opera Colonade, it appears, promises his choicest Wines on the occasion. A reprieve arrived at Horsemonger-lane gaol on Thursday night, for Charles Bonnick, who was convict e d at t h e l ast Kingston Assizes for highway robbery, and sentenced to be executed. His associate, Thomas Hooper, who was al so tried and convicted at the same time, and sentenced to transportation for seven years, was removed yesterday from Horsemonger.lane, and lodged in the Maidstone gaol, to await his trial for similar offences committed in that county. A warrant for the execution of Edward Hales, aged 18, on Monday next, was also received at Horse monger-lane gaol. The wretched convict was tried and convicted at the last Kingston Assizes for ravishing Maria Vernon, an infant under 10 years of age. THE KING'S DRAWING ROOM.

COVENT-GARDEN.--Tlie. Comedy last night was The Belle's Stratagem a Comedy sup ported by such a variety of characters as to render it very diverting on the whole,and which is likely to keep its station on the Stage, because many Actors and Actresses will be ambitious of appearing in the parts of Doricourt and Miss 'lardy. The dialogue. is light and flimsy._ The assumed madness of Doricourt is borrowed from that of Valentine, in Love for Love, though for a different purpose, and the hoyden vulgarity and ignorance of Letitia Hardy is obviously taken from The Citizen. Mr. C. KEMULE, whose ad mirable performance of Falconhridgc the night before we had not an opportunity to notice, dis played the variety as well as force of his talents in the part of Doricourt. Mrs. CUATTERLEY hit eV; as the phrase is, the hoyden part of Letitia, and was by no means uninteresting in passages of fashionable gaiety and tenderness. The rest of the characters were duly supported by FAWCETT, JONES, ABBOTT, Miss FOOTE, and I particularly Mrs. Glans, whose Mrs. Racket was a specimen of admirable spirit and humour.
