in this city, on the 18th, the intend:d junction of
the Trappist and Quesatla, and resolved to march to
Balbastro, which the first had kti on the 'sante day,
taking the road to Huesca; he put in requisition .;i1
the carriages and Cunlveyances that be met with, and
on the :21.st .ut day.break• overtook his adver4nry,
who most certainly did nut expect to meet hint. The
Truppits-werc surprised, and terror seized them;
the Empecinado completely routed them iu less than
un hour, killed 200, made a great many prisoners,
and took 60 horses, the baggage, the treasnre, and a
part of the pillage which they had carried off from
Balbastro. MC chief' himself was nearly taken,
and only escaped in the coufosion. Meantime Que-
sada reinlereed the posts on the whole chain of the
mourtains from Ochag wilt to falailla; the cavalry
pushed its reconnuitances as far its Satlava, three
leagues front Ayerbc, and Cul. Cobra, with 1,200
men, made an incursion on tne 24th into the valley
of Basun, into which lie hail lizthre penetrated,
threatening at the same time Yran and St. Sebast•
thin, where great aperebensions were felt. On the
o.licr hand, the Junta circulated its proclamations
through the whole country on this side the Ebro,
the invasion of which doubtless seemed to them very
easy. By this movement Quesala had placed him-
self between the troops of Tabitrica and those of
Guipuscoa, which already observed him; but the
route of the Trappist has, wiiliont doubt, disism-
eerie(' his plans, fir the troops of Cu!. Cobra have
fallen back upon 'rad, abandoning the valley tit*
Basun, front svhich they have carried off arias, Inn-
nattoition, an provisions.
The movements of the bands of the three pro-
vinces towards Navarre shoes that the Defendeis of
the Faith projected souse great blow, but at present
they seem all to have returned to thus positions,
No more troops have yet arrived in these provittees
to reiiiforce the Constitutionalists, except the militia
of Toro, which was already at Vi:torio cm the 24. h,
and 200 horse, which Espinosa brought with him;
but it is certaiu that two battalions would arrive eat
Vittoria on the 26:11 or i7tit, and two others at St.
Sebastian, miming by t.ca train Galicia.
The bands and guerillas of the two parties ennti-
' nue to desolate Navarre and the three provinces.

Fer linand, thin faction of impious republicans will instantly
vsniali, who endeavour to deprive us at once of eternal felicity
and of temporal happinvas, by plunging us into an abyss of in-
eskolatile erns. Unite without delay, and yna will give to
Spain a day of glory and renown, which will CIPICtIIIi to the
