PARIS, arPTRIIIIIIR
A Jinsvnal of this day commons the following st--
-" M. Benjamin Coward hoe been cited to
lappet, to day before M. de Belkyne, Jrige erits-
striseriois. The snosaiiina does not give M. B. Con.
ka-it the title of Deputy."
We see ignorant if the summons is drawn up es
this Journal states, but whatever rosy he its terms,
it is 414 the less true, that M. Constant preserves
his Sale sad rank as Deputy, and the wait of this
deaignation cannot take then, from him. We can-
not imagine that any judicial authority would ne.
&et or despise a title «Inch is independent of it,
and which exists till lib. constitutionally abolished.
We learn this evening. that iii the interrogation
to wArch M. B. Constant was subjected. he did not
reuse to acknowledge that he was the author of the
"nice to M. de Cancer, signed with his name, and
inserted iu the Journals which were seized ; and it

wsa esplained to him that it was a mistake thet he
labl rent'received in his summons the Ili le of Deputy.
,Pefasi de la CAarte de Nantes, of the 17th, an.
Demme, that at Names equipage., and a train of
Arid artillery, art embarking, destined, it is rind,
for Bayonne.
A soldier of the 21st regiment has written from
Grenoble to the Quolidieene, as follows:—" On the
last idetschment of the 17th regiment arriving. the
officers of the filet ioviied their comrades to a ban- ,
gag, which has furnished another proof of the ex-
cellent dispositioo with which these two corps are
animated. The toests, the King, the Duke of Bout-
. demob, the Royal Family. Legitimacy. oar Bro-
Mfrs of the Army of the Fuld, the union of the
two regiments were proposed, and received with
equal frankness."
• Every day strengthens belief in the victories of
the Greeks, which we announced when all the other
Journals were deploring their annihilation. The
Cozetre of Augsburg. at, met! to-day, contains news
which coaifirms the news it gore yesterday, and it
soy, that in fact the Turks were beaten several
clays .successively by Colocotroni. We shall at
the same time paint out an incorrectness of this
Journal. It speaks of the Commander in Chief,
Mehemed Ali Pocha. as if there were in fact
in the Mores a Csirurnatider of the Turkish army
of this name. There is some confusion as to
names. Mehemed is the Packs of Theamly who
adsenced into the Mores without being the Coin-
mender-in-Chief, who is Ali Pitch', surnamed
Tchsr Hadgi,that is bossy, General of the advanced
Guard, and we noticed his death several days ago.
The news we gave eight days ago will serve as a
text to the German Journals for some days who have
not been able to acquire any information but pos-
terior to ours.—(l' •ottitutionsel.)
In the pees.r.iit slate of nation., there is some-
thing common to therm i.ll and sympathetic. and
sill the determinations of the Holy Alliance on any
one subject will re-act stromiiy lois all Europe.—
Thai, the Holy Alliance, in dirt•cti,•A, its (rat views to
Spain, will direct them to -lie moat important in-
•terest of every throne, because •here tite principles
of revolution which menace let.inivrey at present
prevail. The doctrines which rely ferment in other
'countries are unelisitied in Spain. In other plaices
there ere menaces. but be Spate execution has com-
menced ; anon what obstacles can hereafter be op-
posed to revolutions which threaten the rest of Eu-
rope, if the men who meditate and desire them can
support themselves in the eyes of mankind with the
example of the first triumph? Residev, the Mo.
macho may perceive that there is concert and onion
isniriiig thine people, who have aii appetite for chenge
and ruin. Revolution has not yet public Con-
gresses, but it has every where secret and tnysteri.
sus elision:es. In France, in Poly, and in Germany,
;here exists a terrible fraternity, bound to de-
*troy, as the Holy Alliance is to preserve. This
smiledy of so many perverse and erring minds will
i.e kept in view by the Congress in its decisions.
Whatever may he the opinion formed is advatote of
the intention of the Sovereigns. it must be admitted
an effect nearly electrical will be the result, whkh
will be the same fur every country, and will kindle
or exiingnioh fur ever the flames of reeolauon.—

FRONTIERS OF SPAIN.
We (Chgotierienne) have received the following
intelligence from St. Sebastian, dated September
16, by an extraordinary conveyance :—The Trap-
pist and Quaid.. widi about 6,000 aisms, hid a
combat on the 14th, with the Constitutionalists in
the vicinity of Baclosteo. After thirteen hours
fighting, the latter were beaten and put to flight. A
column of their army, about five hundred strong.
succeeded in getting into Venasque; the Trappist
pursued them thither, and summoned the garrison
to surrender in twenty-four hours, otherwise he
would put every loan to the sword and burn the
town. The Trappist expected that the town would
surrender that evening. Whilst this Chief was
thus engaged. Qtresada pursued the Constitu-
tionalists, who had retreated on the rout to Tremp.
It is added that the Baron b'Erolcs. having
been attacked in the neighbourhood of Urgel, hail
routed the Conlin/ utiooalisrs, and taken 300 pri•
,otter,, whom he had marched to Seo.

EXECUTION OF GENERAL ELIO.
EXTRACT OF ♦ LETTER FROM A LIBERAL AT
VALENCIA•

The infamous General Elio has, at length, suf-
fered the pain of death (by the garotte). His exe-
cution took place this morning, at eleven o'clock,
after having been publicly diverted of his rank and
honours. The General was not condemned on ac-
count of his conduct as Captain-General, but in
consequence of the revolt of the catinoniers who
occupied the fort of Vulencia, on the 30th M.‘y
Being tried before an ordinary Court-martial, on
the 2d of June, at which General Villa-Campo
presided, he was, on the 27th of August, adjudged
to the oast ignominious death known to the Spa-
nish laws, that of the garotte. This sentence, sub-
mitted to the Auditor of War to be revised, was not
only approved, but the Auditor demanded its imme-
diate executions conformably to the Martial Law of
the 17th April, 1841. The arrival of the Brigintie..
'Rapine, who was provisionally invested with the rAi_
litary comtnand.of this district, was regarded r.s the
signal for the execution. If it had been regarded,
we should have broken into the prison, and our.
selves have conducted the victim to 11,e scaffold.
The people maintained that demeanor.r which be-
comes an heroic nation, and accomr,anied the cot_
prit to the scaffold with shouts of—.l, To death with
Elio! his blood mill cement the constitutional
edifice !"

Another letter from Veleivelo, written in a differ-
ent spirit, attires

" The scaffold on whir,:h Gen. Elio was strangled
at Valeocia, on the 4th. instant, was erected close to
a delightful garden .which belonged to bits when he
was all-powerful ir. that town. It appears that this
spot was selected in order that his tragical end
might be marked by a circumstance which was cal-
culated to make him regret 'rife. One of our Jour-
nals, which is at all times Aivtiliguished for its vio-
lence, affirms that Getter A Elio, previously to walk-
ing to the sceffold, ko At down and ar.ked pardon
of the Authorities, who were present, for all the
mischief he had oc.casioned—this is wholly false.
Above twelve thoassand persotis were witnesses of
the firmness which he &hewed out this occasion,
of the last wore,a which he pronounced. The Ge-
neral protester'I his innocence in the face of God
and men ; he, declared that he had only carried into
execution the orders which he had received from
the Crov.ftriment during the period of his com-
mand ; that he was utterly unconnected with the
re,:olt of the cannoniers; and, finally, that he beg-
r,4ed of God to pardon his murderers, as he himself
forgave them. " I wish,"- he added, " that my
blood env be the last which is shed in Spain. Spain
witl one day do justice to the purity of my inten.
Cons. and repeat the cry which is now my last
prayer—Long live the King and Religion."
