That Leveuvas was defeated at Tudela, on the
.nth, is pretty clearly admitted, since he passed
three days, immediately after the action, in repair-
ing the bridge over the Ebro. But it is not equally
apparent, from these mystical documents, where
LEFEUVRE was, by the latest accounts. We
strougly suspect, however, that he had been
recall-
id by his Master, probably with disgrace. For,
though I A.FLEIVILE is said to be, in one article,
near Saragossa, on the Itith of June, waiting for
the contrition of the inhabitants, in order to spare
them the horrors of a storm ; and though, in ano-
ther place, he is stated to be about to march into
the Province of Murcia ; yet, in a third paragraph,
it appears that be had got back to Bayonne, on the
sintli, and had been examined by 'NAPOLEON him-
self us to the insurrections in Arragon. Such con-
tradictions are not meant to be reconciled. Their
object is to confound and mislead. We have gut
time to continue war reworks on these insertatable
pnblientions : but we trust that CASTANOS. PALA•
sox, and exist's, wilt soon furnish us with some

commentaries on them, which may elucidate the
dark passages. At present we may say with AD-
DISON, On another occasion—

Our andel-standing traces them in vain,
Lest sad bewilder'd in the fruitless search ;
N.ir sees with hew ouch art the windings run,
Or where the regular confusion ends.

The in►ulting mockery of the Junta at Bayonne,
and the termination of the new Corsican Consti-
tution for Spain, we see, were continued down to
the day preceding JOSEPH'S departure for his new
kingdom. The indecent and impious introduc-
tion of religious rites, of altars, and masses, by a
man meditating and acting scenes of slaughter, and
commanding atrocities at which human nature re-
coil', is one of the characteristic features of NA-
POLEON. The Archbishop of Buttons degraded
his episcopal office and dignity by becoming the
actor in this farce ; as be appears to have subse-
quently done by addressing pastoral sr admonitory
letters from BONAPARTH to the Insurgents. It is
tlins that he employ., and then renders infamous,
the victims of his power. On the surrender of
his fleet at Cadiz, he is discreetly silent ; but it
cannot long be concealed. He will naturally nu-.
pute so atrocious and horrible au act to " the
eternal enemies of the Continent." We trust,
that they are preparing new matter of the most
♦irulent accusation for the Corsican, in the Tagil..
BONAPARTH makes no mention of the Duke of
ABRANTF.S ; but, we hope, that Sir ARTHUR WI:1.-
14414 Y may give us some account, ere long, of that
worthy Viceroy of Portugal.

Pri;ttte letters from France state, that King
CIPOSLEII IV. of Spain, the gams of SPAIN,
Queen MARP,A Lotu4a. ;Id the PRISCO of Peace,
Were all residing at Fontaiithleau, where they
were to remain till the Palace of Compeigne, which
was under repair, was ready to receive thetu.
The Prince of Assuasts, and his two brothers,
were at Valeuccy, the country reisidence.of TA LEL -
RA ND. TA LLMA ND hitlifelt had them in chart4e,
and so anxious was he to secure Ins Royal pet-
*otters, that he was said to attend on them.
Notwithstaociitsg this precaution, Don CARLOP,
brother to the Prince of AM) D I AO, contrived, iu the
latter end of last month, to make his escape from
hiS chamber. with a view of flying into Spain. De
hod not proceeded Gtr, however, before he wt.a
seized and brought hark to the Chateau, whew,
with his Royal Brothers, he now remains closely
guarded. It von. supposed, in Parisi, that the per-
sons to whom the young Prince confided his listen-
tioaof escape, mod by whosn it was planned, had
betrayed hins. By others, it was itna4ined that the
Prince W.11:4 treacherously induced by him to make
this attempt to PICIITC. 111 order to afford a pretext
for the inure rignurous coutineinent of himself and
his two Ilrotht rs.
