MADRID, SEPT. 17.

Yesterday. passed thmugh this city, the divi3loll

is on its march for Sail' ; to-slay entered that of Le
Reding, commanded by Sem Yenegas, which is said
to consist of 10,000 men. It is said that, to-mor-
row., 1000 men, of the Walloon Guards, with some
other troops of this garrison, will leave this city ;
and that, on the day following, the division which
entered to-day will again set out.

We are ustturixl, that, on next Monday will be
held the first Siwitin of the Central or Sovereign
Junta. A report is current to-day, that the French
have evacuated Patupeluna, fearing to be attacked
by the artniea of Blake and Palafox; but this re-
port requires confirmation. The volunteers of this
city ure embodied, and preparations are making to
equip them as speedily as possible.—( Diario de la
