SPANISH PAPERS.

SANTA EUGENIA (GERONA), JUNE 24
Yesterday a party of guerillas, of the band of Mims, 'bolt
100 strong, attacked the advanced posts of Gerona, at Pedret
some troops being sent out they retired rather in eonfasina.
They likewise attacked a detachment of ours consisting of
18 mew, the commander of which was hulled. Os this sr
count the pin of Gerona has sot been opened, till we bad
reconnoitered the environs.

DARCPLONA, JUN 2 .22.
The town °filch is still Ihreateord by the Insurginta, who
ate •ery near it, and appear to hare within it nutty re-
sources and lauds protection.

Letters from Be►ge say, that great consternation prevails
there on account of a report that the few troops are going to
leave the place. With the militia and pailiotic iohnbitautt,
they may resist the bands of factious, but if they ge away
every thing will be at the mercy of the plunderer'', and the
friends of the system will have bottling left bat to emigrate.
What evils await this country.
From Gerona they write, " the factious swarm is this
neighbourhood, and commit the greatest excesses. It is
affirmed that their nsmber amounts to Iwo thousand,—
and that they have already tome horses. The people, ex-
bau.ted by the had harvests, and u. ithout hopes of recover-
ing themselves ou account of the bailees& of the present, lee
their habitations plundered by a horde of barbartaus, who
take delight in reducing them to misery.

JUKE 23.

Accounts from Perpigaas say, that various corps of the
minitery cordon, which gave a bad reception to the fugitive
limargents, are going to be relieved by others which the Go.
eminent thinks more likely to second its plans. A Dew tram
of artillery has arrived to reinforce the cordon. We esanot
absolutely believe this sews, but if it be true, we must cwt.
fen that the Freveh G•mrnmenl, by this alone declares it-
self as eacmy to our cunstitutioual ardent.

A division of oar troops entered Seisosa on the 224, and
used that town which was closely premed.

JUNE 25.

Accounts from Torloss of the 23d 'say, that all was trail-
quil there. From Vich they write (24th) that the Insurgents
remain at Ripoll, where they seem to hare fink head-
quarters, shire they bring their wounded thither. Ti.ey
swarm in this neighbourhood, and on the tlst ventured
within half a league of the place; bat scarcely bad some
militia marched out when they and it seems they avoid
fighting, and seek only pillage.
The Indirador justly said, that the grand plan of the fac-
tious was to get possession of the tUI tllit of Urgel, and thence
to command the whole mountain. The Commander of the
insurgents, well knowing its importance, prevailed on a
great number of tbem, by large promises, to attempt an
assault ; but the garrison sue; red them to approach, sad
then opened a fire of grape shot, which occasioned a horrible
sensation among them. Part of the garrison then sallied out
and completed the overthrow with the bayonet.

likewise commands that the two chapels erected i■ these
establishments, without license, shall be immediately clo.ed.
This order of his Majesty Is founded urn the constant refusal
of the society to submit its statutes to the approbation of

the supreme authority, and the reiterated exlsertattoas of its
ecclesiastical superiors.

VIENNA, JULY 4.
It mews that there is no truth in the report thzt Prince
Metternich would soon pay a visit to the cosntries on the
Rhine. He will not gait this capital, where t►e important

We have received the Paris Papers np to Tues-
day last. The Comstimaioanal states a report that
the troops in Biscay and Nava►re expressed • lively
indignation at learning the counter-revolutionary
movements at Madrid, and immediately addressed
to Government the most unreserved declarations of
fidelity and de►otion. The Gazette de France, on
the other hand, expects that the mutineers will re-
ceive strong support among the royal cartineers
end the guerillas.

Spanish Papers have been received at our Offrcr

the Insurgents in the several proviaces.

Some difficulty arose in the House of Lords on
Wednesday evening, as to the propriety of their
Lordships sitting on this day, it being the anniver-
sary of the Coronation of his MAJESTY. The
Loan CRAM:RU.Oa observed that Parliament had
never been sitting when the anniversary of the Co-
renstion of the late Kura occurred, which made it
necessary that precedents should be sought for in
preceding reigns. We understand, on examination
of the Journsls, that three precedents have been
found for sitting on that day, and not one against
it. Their Lordships will therefore sit this dry for
the purpose of passing the Bill for renewing the
Insurrection Act (Ireland) tlirough a stage (the
second reeding).

Therecommittal of the Canada Government and
Trade Bill wam moved by Mr. Wit.mor last night
is the house of Commons, who stated its objects to
be, to apply to Canada the principle of the Bill
brought in by the Beard of Trade reeling to colo-
nial trade ; to weans a fair appropriation of the du-
ties between the two provinces of Upper and Lower
Canada; and to alter to a certain degree the Consti-
tution granted to those provinces by the Act of the
91st Geo. HI. by incorporating into one the Go-
vernment and Legislatures of both provinces. The
motion was opposed by Sir JANIS MACKINTOSH,
as far as regarded the alteration of the Constitution
