The military commissions still continue their pro-
ceedings. During the month which the first four have
been exercising their functions, the number of cases
brought before them have amounted to nearly 4,000, of
which 150 have been referred to the general of the
division, to be tried before the courts martial; 1,700
persons have been declared guilty of having taken
part in the insurrection, and are ordered for trans-
portation, and 2,004) have been set at liberty.
Among the persons arrested for the insurrection of
June, there are found very few known to the pubic
who had sufficient icfluence to drive the insurgents
into the battle. Nevertheless, the previous examina-
tions have disclosed enough to put justice on the track
of some of the real instigators of the insurrection. One
of these is said to be the director or inspector of an in-
surance company, who came to Paris on the eve of
the events, and took a lodging at which, it is said, he
held secret councils tor considering the steps to be
taken and the direction to be given to the insurrec-
tion. He is pointed out as an ardent communist,
perfectly known at Paris, Rouen, and other mcnufac-
taring towns. He was arrested, but set at liberty
agaiii,froin want of sufficient proofs against him. But,
further evidence having been obtained, he has been
again, taken into custody, and committed to trial upon
a charge of having excited the citizens to take up
arms against each other.

SPAIN.—The Madrid mail of the 10th has ar-
rived. Accounts from Catalonia state that a band of
republicans had invaded the province from France; and
had entered the town of Mansanet do Cabrenis, where
they pillaged the house of the mayor, and exchanged
some shots with the troops, after which they joined a
Nlantemolinist chief. Engagements between small
bodies of insurgents and the queen's troops are re-
ported; the most important being an encounter at
Llora, where the insurgents, five hundred in number,
headed by Marsal and other well-known chiefs, were
dispersed, after having had four men killed, several
wounded, and many horses captured.
