The Marshal Duke of Reggio arrivedahere on the 21st with the'rest of the division, and hisi ,Excellency immediately pushed' his advanced guard on the -three roads of St. Andero, Palencia, and Aranda. It would be to give air idea of the enthusiasm and joy with which •. our troops have been received at Burgos. The cries of •Live . the King," Live Religion," Live Louis XVIII." Live the Alliance of France . and Spain;' did not cease a mo. ment whila the .- corps were tiling oft' and 'the crowd was - ewry where so great, that the troops could with difficulty - advance. " The brigade of Albignac, of the division of .Bourck, has been direCted from Vilorin towards Santona and St. Ander°, having the'Swils•regiment of the guard for a reserve, in order to repel the enemy's columns ' which seemed disposed to pro ceed against the Spanish Royalist troops which blockade San tana. These troops got posseision on the 21st of the fort of Soredo, which makes us masters of the Bay of &intone. After •having operated in this quarter, the brigade of Albignac will • rejoin the first corps at Burgos, as will also the . other brigade of the division of 'Bourck. The diviSion Obert is still at Logrono4 it has pushed detachments in the direction of Soria and Tudela, •.where it has fettled a communication with the second corps ; it is going to occupy the latter town. Count illolitor, who con . aintics his movements on Saragossa, arrived on the 22d at Tu dela, with his advanced guard. Ballasteros had evacuated that town the day before, retiring Upon . Mallen and Tarragona ; a regiment of cavalry and a brigade of infantry were detached the same day in those twadirections. Every where on its march • the second corps have bond the population assembled to meet it. Triumpind arches adorned the entrance of the towns where; , our troops have entered .1' and' they were met with music, and with transports of the liveliest joy ; this reception has made a profound impression on our soldiers, and confirms their good .;.understanding with the inhabitants. " The corps of reserve 'under Lieutenant-General Count Bourdesonit occupies Vittoria, Bilboa, Miranda d'Ebro, and II aro. " The accounts coming from the interior of Spain, announce that the Revolutionary troops arc retreating in all directions-- Allot the desertion is very considerablee-and that a great num 'ber of militia, who had been compelled to march, are hastening to return to their homes. • " His Highness, Prince of Hohenlohe,-hasfixed to-day his 'bead-quarters at Tolosa. He has reported that the Governor of Pampeluna had attempted, on the 21st,. to send out about 290 men to attack a convoy . of provisions destined for the troops before the walls; 'but they were immediately driven back into the place. .. " General Canoe' will arrive to-morrow, at Iran, with the `first and second brigades, which are going to be placed en eche!. lops, as far us the Ebro, while the brigade under the command of General Sclueffer will continue the blockade of St. Sebastian.

Espinosa having lost 500 men by desertion by the time lie had reached Somosierra, continued his march to Madrid with about 1,000 men; and will probably arrive there the day after to-morrow. The political state of the province is highly satisfactory ; the people every where declare for the good cause, even before the arrival of the troops.

PAT{ I s, A rat t. 30.—The niasquerode representing the inter ment of commerce, at Lyons, which certain journals attempted to represent as a very serious aflitir, has not been considered .in that light by the tribunal of that city, which has acquitted the 14 young men who were brought before it. The .Journal of Toulouse gives the following accounts, taken from a letter from Perpignan of 21it . - " Our corps occupies the plain of Lanipouradan ; our troops have entered the town of PigUeiras by night; they left it again without a single shot having been fired front a cannon of the fort. Some musket shot were fired at a detachment of ehasseurs on horseback, which was reconnoitgring, and was led by its guide into an ambuscade; four chasseurs ,(one of them an WE . cer) were wounded. "All the troops date fnurth'corps have either entered Cato-, lonia, or will have: done so in two days. " The sick in the hospitals of this town are beginning . to be sent to Narbonne. Some carts, with soldiers of the Faith, ar- ' rived to-day. General Donnadieu has returned to Perpignan. We learn by a letter from Bayonne that the Spanish Go vernaient at Seville has already delivered 37 licenses or brevets. to authorise eicers•to form auerillas. It is not witlthut reason that we expressed our surprise at a certain piece of news published by the dugsburg and which the DrapMn Plane pretended to confirm. Licut.-Gen. Lount Cautir4; comwandar of .the first military division, has addressed the'following letter, dated 27th, to the editor of alai Journal " • Sir—The details which you gave in your No of the 24th instant, of the organization of Light-horse Volunteers, auxili aries of the Frendi armies of the Faith, may have the double inconvenience of implicating poisons who may confide in thou, and of. serving as a pretext, to attempt armaments contrary to the interests of the State, and alarming to the public tran quillity-. " therefore, ithink it my duty to inform you that the levy and formation of the Lighthcrrse of the Faith is disapprov ed by the Government, and that I have issued positive orders to cause to be arrested the pretended officers of a corps which does not exist (who would besides be subject to military juris diction), and to proceed against them with all the ri gour o f th e and especially according to the dispositions of the Royal Ordinance or the 10th of this month.

(Front the Quotidienne of ?'hursdatb ) BAYONNE, APRIL . 27.—The provinces of L ug o, O re n se , and Mondonedo, iu Gallicia, and a part of the Asturias, have risen against the Constitution. The Constitutionalists made some resistance at Laredo. After six hours combat, in which the Royalists bad only five killed and six wounded, 150 pri soners were taken from the Constitutionalists. The couriers sent from head-quarters to the different corps in some towns in Spain, travel with such safety that no escort is requiied ; the roads are as safe as in France. Letters from. Cadiz, of a very recent date, say that the Mu nicipality of that city 'has declared, that if the, Cortes should attempt to transfer the King and , the seat of Government to their city, they would not be received into it. If we may believe one of our Liberal Journals, the Duke of Belluno will go anti take the command of the 4th Corps of the Army of the Pyrenees, instead of 11arshal Moncey, whose great age does not allow him to make the campaign which has just commenced. We know of nothing to confirm this news, and to make us believe that the Duke of Belluno is again to quit the War Department. The eagerness of the. Liberals to pub lish such a piece of news, makes us think they have some in terest that it should be true. .But when the Liberals hope any thing, is not that a reason for the Royalists to fear it ? (Front the Journal des Debuts of Friday, May 2.) It is said that Ulman has entered Valencia, and that he has caused all those persons to be shot who were concerned in the condemnation of General EIM. LFrom the Journal de Paris Friday.] PARIS, MAY I.—We learn by letter of the 23d, from Per pignan, that Cargo], one of the Chiefs of the Army of the Faith, whose arrest we have before mentioned, was still in the military prison with four of his officers: all the other officers of this division are under arrest in their camp. It was feared that a plan of desertion had been formed in this part of the troops of the Faith, and there was an idea of incor porating a company in each of the battalions of our army. Letters from Bayonne, received to-day, say that Gen. Janre guy {called the Pastor) endeavoured to cover St. Andero with 6,00 men. Our troops closely press Pampeluna ; and though it is pre. tended that the 4,000 men who defend it have provision for 14 n'unths, it is hoped it will share the fate of Logrono, which place, after being thrice taken and retaken, was carried the 4th time by our brave soldiers. A letter from Bayonne, of the 26th of April, says—" A re• port is circulated here, that M. de Martignac is gone to Seville on a mission;' it is even added, that three of the most distin guished Members of the Cortes had repaired to the head-quar ters of the Duke of Angoulerne. We know not what to think of these reports." Count Molt , and the Minister of Foreign Affairs have publish ed their speeches in the Chamber of Peers, the one against the other in support of the project of l aw relative to the young soldiers of the class of 1811. The concluding paragraph of M. de Chateaubriand's speech is as follows :—After speaking of the vain fears which it was attempted to excite on the appearance of the tri-coloured flag, opposed to-the white flag, he said, "'Well, Gentlemen ! the experiment has been tried, and, as I never doubted, it has perfectly succeeded. The cannon fired on the llidassOa has dispelled many illusions, dispersed many phantoms, and overthrown many hopes. Eight years of peace have done less to consolidate the foundation of the legitimate Throne, than twenty days of war have done. A King, who, after having restored 113 liberty, restores its - glory ; a Prince, who in the midst of the camp, has become the idol of 100,000 French soldiers, have nothing more to fear from the future. Spain de livered front the . revolution—France resuming her rank in Europe, and again sendin g u n arm y—l eg i t i macy acquiring the only iiirce which it still wanted these, Gentlemen, will be the fruits of a short war, whi c h w e did not court , but which we did not decline. "These great considerations ought to put an end to all po. Utica' divisions ; we should imitate those old companions of Conegliano, those veterans of the army of Conde, who now repose under the same tent, and h ave th e same fl ag .' , ( From tlie ConslitutionneL) PARIS, MAY I.—Next Saturday, May 3, the ninth anniver sary of the King's return to • his capital, the Municipal Body Will go in procession to the Metropolitan Church, to attend at the solemn celebration of Mass, at half-past nine o'clock, to give thanks for the return of the King.and the Royal Family, conformably to the foundation made for ever by the Chapter, and approved by his Majesty. After Mass the Municipal Body will'go in the same order to the Tuileries to pay their homage tohis Majesty. In the evening there will be &general illumination of the Town-hall, and all the other public buildings. On Friday the City of Paris will give a grand dinner at the Chateau St. Ouen, on the same occasion.; 500 cards of invita tion are issued. llis Majesty will Visit that place, when the first vocal and instrumental performers are to attend. (From the journal de Commerce of Friday.) The Memorial liordeluit of 28th April, says, "We know positively that several French vessels are loading in our port for Spain, and that some are named as - destined to Bilboa." It were to be wished that the Memorial, which ism) well informed, had mentioned the rate of insurance. GERMAN PAPERS. We have received. the Allgemehie ZeHung , to the 4 27th ult.— If any credit is due to the following article from Constantinople, the Magnanimous Alexander is now bestirring himself to fa vour the Turks against the Greeks : " CONSTAVTIN'OPLE, MAucit letter from the Reis-Effendi to Count Nesselnxle must have long since reached its destination. Many of the Turks flatter themselves that Russia will now deliver up the Asiatic fortresses, which the Porte has so perseveringly demanded, especially as the last accounts leave no doubts of the present policy of the Russian Court, and have clearly convinced the Porte of the sincere and noble conduct of the Etnperor Alexander. The Russian Ambassa dor at Teheran, M. Maz.irevich ' a friend of Count C a p o Wl:stria, and probably instructed by him, who is supposed to have promoted the Persian war, to recalled, on which ,the Persian Court, convinced that the Russian Emperor sincere ly wished well to the Porte, immediately opened a negocia tion for peace with the Porte. Whoever is acq ua i n t e d with the relations that have subsisted of _ late years between Persia and Russia, will be sensible of the importance of this step. , It was long since conjectured that Persia had commenced the war chiefly at the instigation of the above. mentioned Russian Am bassador, and the Persian Minister often said, since the last un fortunate war with Russia, that Wan Emperor, fond of war, reigned in Russia, Persia would be ruined. It should seem, therefore; that Persia began the war with the Porte At the break ing out of the Greek insurrection, partly for its own interest, and pertly at the insti ga ti on of t h e R u ssian Envoy, and that it now acts quite In conformity • with the WisheS of the Russian Coust. This event is a }vein blow upon the Greeks, its Turkey may now direct its whole force against them. Their fate now depends on their oin efforts, and the will of Heaven." FLANDERS MAIL. CONSTAN.T NOPLU,MAittni 25.—Three weeks have scarcelf elapsed since the great,catastrophe, and already we see new ha. bitations rise among the ruins, built as slightly and as carelessly as the preceding, so that there will he no watt of fuel for future tires !—The deposed Grand Vizir has chosen Nicomedia for his residence. his dismissal is unconnected With political events. He did not feel himself equal to his post ; he is generally cor sidered as - amnia of probity, as a proof of which it is said, that when he laid down his office his' whole property amounted to only thirty piastres. When the Sultan was informed of this he ordered 20,000 piastres to be paid to him, and assigned hint a monthly pension of 15,000 piastres. The most enlightened persons m the Ministry speak highly of his' successor, Ali, It appears that the Reis .Effendi will remain in his office. The new Grand Vizir finds powerful assistance in tnaintaining the peace of the city from the Aga of the Janissaries. There per. baps never was a time when the Janissaries were so humbled and so submissive as they now are. Proposals of peace have been made from Persia. The Porte wishes the negoerationsto be carried on at Erzerutn. The Algering and Tunisian squadrons, consisting of 24 fri. gates, corvettes, and brigs, sailed on the 24th, for the Archipe. 'ago, commanded by an experienced naval officer of the name of Pcpeglii. It is reported, that many European seamen have been induced by high pay to engage in his service. Morea and 'tear:lama, are now entirely in the hands of the Insurgents. There is indeed no news of the surrender of Pa tras, bait is fully expected. The Turkish karriSon of Corinth, .according to accounts which can hardly be discredited, as they have been . received by the' Embassies here from several quarters, and all agree, has had a cruel fate. Driven to extremities by famine, it was resolved to 'leave 400 men in the citadel, and with the rest, stated to be 3,000 men to go if possible to Patna. On the way thither 1200 men were surrounded by the Insur gents near Vraka, East of Vostizza; they sought refuge in a difile, where they surrendered to the enemy, on the sole con dition that their lives should be spared. They were all cut to pieces the following day.' In Albania, the disasters experienced by the Turkish corps besieging Alissolunglii had excited such alarm, that fears were entertained even for Prevesat. But it is thought that the orders sent to the Pacha of Scutari, to march with his whole force, will ►ive a new turn to affairs in that quarter. The Pacha of Egypt has again promised the Porte the most effectual assistence. We hesitate to specify the particulars, because the statements seem to be exaggerated. However, all that has been said of his projects against the Porte is cer tainly false. VIENNA, APRIL 21.—Illetalliquee, 82 3-16.—Bank Shares, 902 1-5.

SPAIN. MADRID PAPERS. MADRID, APRIL. 24.—An extraordinary courier passed last night through this capital, with dispatches for the Government from General Mina. Nothing has transpired of their con tents. The messenger only said, that that General was still in Figueras, and that he had under his orders many and excellent troops. The Political Chief of Burgos, in the dispatches in which he states the entry of the French into that city, says, " In all the villages I perceive indignation against the French, on ac count of the eagerness with which they repeat the evils of the ' last war, and among the timid alone, I observe a certain apathy. I doubt not, however, that at the moment they commence the work of violence, violation, and plunder, they will rouse against them the anger of the most passive, and will pay dearly for the temerity with which they have invaded our territory." 1-li,Y Majesty having received the resignation of Senor Banos, has nominated Don N. Maratequi to the Governmeneof the Peninsula, who has also sent in his resignation, and is firmly resolved not to accept the department. It also appears that his Majesty has nominated to the department of Uhratnar, a Lieut.- Colonel of Engineers, named Munoy, whom we know nothing of, we can only state that he is a native of the Carraccas. Wee have received also papers from Seville, from the 17th to the 20th, inclusive. The Espectador, of the 17th, announces the entry of the French merely as a rumour, and that of the 20th states that up to that day the Government had received no official intelligence of that important event. SEVILLE Aran. 18.—Yesterday the King, and other Members of Royal Family, took a airing. About the place called El poza de las Bruges, the coach in which his Majesty was stuck fast, and so firmly, that a good deal of force was ne cessary to extricate it. Some of those Andalusians, who are naturally quick and humorous, suddenly observed, " that if his Majesty had always kept the good road his carriage would not have stuck fast." The consort of the Infant Don Francisco de Paula has hap pily given birth to a fine infant boy. Two Deputies of the Cotter attended to recognize the birth. We can assure our readers, that the intelligence of the in. vasion has not yet arrived to the Government in such an of ficial manner as was to be expected. This circumstance may afibrd some reason of suspecting the certainty of what we yes terday said in our number on this subject.' It appears to us scarcely necessary to repeat, that, by all means, we should pro- ! emit in the same manner as if the invasion hart taken place. SEVILLE, APRIL 20.—The Government has received of.'. ficially the news of the entry of the French into our territory. General Morino, as soon as he heard the invasion had really taken place, adopted the most expedient measures to make war (these are his own words), " against the enemies of our country and liberty." lie has chosen Benaventa for the basis of his operations, where he has arranged that one member of each of the provincial deputations of the third and fourth districts shall meet him. Yesterday, we Raid, that we considered as more eminently 'criminal, those bastard Spaniards, who are infamous enough to unite their arms to those of the invaders, than the in- - vaders themselves ; to-day we do not believe that we contra dict ourselves in affirming that we ought to carry on a more exterminating war against the French, than the Afraneia mins. The reason is very obvious, the object of the imitators of the assasins of the second oft day is, that we, Spaniards, should destroy, each other. The greater, therefore, the number of Spamardi who should perish, nu matter to what party they may belong, the more Spain is weakened end bowed down, by so much then are the wishes of the infamous Government of France fulfilled. That' Government seeks for nothing more eagerly than to annihilate this heroical nation, which has dis played sufficient energy to prostrate that great man before whom the Despots of Europe crouched. They wish to, weaken our strength, without diminishing their own ; and they desire that the battle field shall be dyed with Spanish blood alone. Ought we not, therefore, to do every thing in our power to frustrate the infamous object on the part of our adversaries. War, then ! war to death ! and ex termination to all those strangers who violate otar soil. If Spaniards fall, let Frenchmen also perish, and let them never be able to say that they made war against Spain through the and at her sole expence.---( E t tpec. tador.)nlean of Spain herself, We have before us various letters and journals from the Island of Majorca, which speak of the dreadful condition in which that island is placed, in consequence of . the'frequent arrests which have been made by order of the Military Fiscal of Barcelona. BAYONNE PAPERS. BAYONNE,a PA IL 26.--Yesterday we heard daring the whole of the day a cannonade in the direction of St. Sebastian t we know, however, that the place is not attacked in form. The cruizers stationed before the port do not at all hurt the city, and several triquadores go in and out with the greatest facility. The 25th regiment of the line is going from this ci►y to reinforce the besieging corps. An official Note sent to all the Public Func tionaries announces the nominations and promotions made by the Prince. . . An Express has arrived here coming in the greatest haste from Paris, to carry, it is affirmed, to his Royal Highness the Duke of Angouleme directions to suspend the march of the troops till the return of an Envoy Extraordinary, who is to go to make new proposals of peace to the Cortes. If it is true that M. de Martignac is to go on this inheion, it is s a id he will have to go to Cadiz, because the King and the Cortes were to go for their security to that city, as soon as information should be received of the actual invasion of the Peninsula by the French. This news, though it is very possible does not agree with the dismissal of the Constitutional Consul, and the public recognition of a successor appointed by the Junta. It is noon, and the mail from Madrid which we expected with im patience, is not yet arrived. It .is not even probable that it will arrive. We learn by letters from Bilbao, that a great commercial house has issued a circular, in which it states that it shall sus pend its business fora time, on account of the present state of things, and because the head of the house has been appointed President of the Committee for the defence of the province. Those who are always in a hurry to spread good news, had reported that Santona was taken by Gorostitlo, which seemed highly probable ; we now find that he has recently taken the little fort of Laredo, and made sonic. prisoners who had not time to escape. The detachment of the Royal Guard which was at Bilbao, left it almost immediately to advance towards Saint Andero. A detachment of National Guards, which cannot exceed 140 men, 4;3 duty in the town, together with two companies of Swiss Guards. The Custoni.houSea have been established on the Ebro, and so far the privileges of the three provinces have been restored to them. HIS MAJESTY'S ANSWER.-(SPAIN.)

We have received the Paris Papers of Thurs day and Friday, and have given copious extracts from then.' in our preceding papers. They contain nothing later from the French army, however, than the intelligence communicated by the Telegraphic Dispatch of Friday, announcing the surrender of Saragossa and Jaca. The only correct version of this Dispatch appeared in THE SUN of Saturday, our copy of it alone having been pi:tidal. There j is some ambiguity in that part of the Telegraphic Dispatch which relates to Jaca. It says that the citadel is in the hands of the KING'S Army, — that the Revolutionary Chief was arrested, —and that the garrison had surrendered. Are we to understand by " the KING'S Army, " 1 the troops of the King of FRANCE, or the Army of the Faith ? By whom was the Con stitutional Chief " arrested," —by his own troops previous to their surrender, or by the vic tors after the capture of the place ? Was the citadel taken by surprise, or carried by storm, or giyen up by treachery ? We must wait for further information before these questions CO be solved. The place itself is .unimportant; and it is only of consequence to ascertain wile titer or not the Constitutional troops who were entrusted with its defence were faithful to their oaths. riZrNeli FUND .-APRIL 30.
