THE STATE OF SPAIN

Despatches received from Paris, under yester-
day's date, mention that at eight o'clock in the
morning of the 23rd inst., the troops were masters
of every point at Barcelona, but still remained
under arms. The struggle was very sanguinary.
Preparations were being made for executing the
persons who were taken with arms in their hands.
General Ruiz commands the garrison at Gerona,
which has risen. The above news only serves to
corroborate the intelligence which we have already
received by telegraph. Since then we have received
advices from Bayonne of the 24th inst., state that
according to a letter from Saragossa, dated the
20th inst., General Falcon had held a review of
16,000 men. A battalion of Royalists, which had
left Tudela, revolted on arriving near the town, and
joined the insurgents. The Custom-house officials
did the same 15,000 militiamen or peasants,
coming from Quinca, were advancing to join the
Arragonese. The frontier of Navarre is tranquil.

AMERICA.

The steamer Edinburgh arrived at Greenock on
Thursday morning, from New York, after a passage
of twelve days and fifteen hours, bringing dates
to the 9th instant, which are four days later than
those received by the last arrival at this port,
From the intelligence brought by this source,
we learn that the New York Herald, in an article
on the election for the Presidency, states that
the relative position of the candidates for that high
and responsible distinction stands thus. [Be it
remembered, that in this announcement we
merely quote our Transatlantic cotemporary.]
The New York Herald thus sums up the claim•
ants to the presidency :—Fremont, head over all
northern ; Fillmore bristled up in the south,
Buchanan losing ground.

News from the Kanzas, via Chicago, is to the
11th inst. Thus we learn that on the 11th inst.,
at Kanzas, General Lane had been driven back on
the, 4th instant into the town with a body of

emigrants.

Some doubts had been expressed with regard to
the news, inasmuch as it was believed that General
Lane and his company were 108 miles distant from
the Missouri river, in New Orleans, on the 10th
July, and could not by possibility have been
present

We learn from New Orleans, under date of the
10th instant, that the steamer Quaker City had
arrived at Mobile, with Havanna dates to the 6th.
Shares were then buoyant. The cotton trade was
easier, the sales for England, in three days, being
13,500 bales, at 101 c. to 10/c. for middling. Ashes,
small sales, and prices buoyant. Cotton firm, at
full prices. Rice firm. Sugar firm. Freights to
London 2s 10bd to 3s.

COUNTY COURT.—BEFORE JOSEPH PoLLOCK, EsQ.—
There were upwards of 140 cases disposed of in this court
yesterday. They were moitly undefended actions, and were
of no interest, except to the parties concerned.

MILITARY , EMBARKATON; —Yesterday, cur town was
delighted, and we may add honoured, by the passing
through to their respective destinations of two distinguished
regiments in her Majesty's service. The first in order, is
the nth Royal Irish, who (en. route from Aldershott,)
marched to the landing stage in the attire in which they
won glory in the Crimea—a costume not improved by their
recent encampment on their native shoree. They presented
nevertheless, a most warlike and bror zed appeaeance, and
though the uniform they wore might be faded, the medals
worn on the breasts of m any of the heroes, bespoke a hearty
and enthusiastic welcome from their fellow countrymen.
Others of the veteran class, besides the Cfitnean decoration,
wore the Burmah medal, reminding .those.who have a rem_
niscence of military affairs, that this gallant regiment had
only returned from its Indian achievements slx. months,
when it obeyed thesummons to transfer its brilliant serviers to
the Crimea • of their heroic exploits, others have already
essayed to do justice. Tue 18th embarked on board the ship
Imperatrice for Dublin, there to do garrison duty, and
receive the genuine welcome which Irishmen can give to a
distinguished Irish regioriouments 18. Itth is

the pl ace t sing
of
ular
that scarcely had the gl
embarkation, than detachments from other regiments of the
line approached the same spot. A recognition between the
brave fellows immediately took place, and in remembrance
that both corps had bled side by side in India, the band of
the latter regiment struck up, as the Iraperatrice got under
weigh, the well-known and universally cherished air,
c, Auld Lang Syne." As the Imperatrice was relieved, with
the most perfect nautical skill, from her moorings, to com-
mence her passage to Dublin, the heroic 80th set up a
cheer. which, while it might resound on the Cheshire coast,
at once displayed a devotion to the service to which both
regiments were pledged, and a recognition of the gallantry
which both has displayed before the enemy. The destination
of the 80th is the Cape of Good Hope, where we are as •ured
they will exhibit the same prowess that in other climes has
won for them imperishable honours. To both the gallant
corps we heartily wish " God speed.' '
