HZAD QUARTERS, SAItTON, SErT. 20.
" In obedience to the instructions contained in the royal
Order which I received, I marched at day-break from Sa-
cedon, in the direction of Siguenza. On passing the bridge
of Aunon I received a dispatch from Count Luchana, in
which he conveyed to me the gratifying intelligence of the
complete victory obtained over the rebels the preceding day,
and informed me that the greater part of them had taken
the direction of Pastrana. In consequence of this infor-
mation I changed my route, and advanced towards that
place. When I had got beyond Alhondiga, my scouts in-
formed me that a considerable force of the enemy was ad-
vancing. I then detached the cavalry by the high road,
and the infantry by the heights at either side. The enemy
beaten the day before by the expeditionary troops of the
army of the north, were totally ignorant of my proximity,
and, seized with terror, and in a disordered state, they dis-
persed as soon as they perceived half a troop of my ca-
valry, and proceeded towards the Tagus, which river they
crossed, by the fords and boats of Almonacid, Zurita, and
Sarton. All the troops under my orders, continued in
rapid pursuit of the enemy until night-fall, at which time
we reached the river side, and we made 200 prisoners, be-
sides the multitude who joined our ranks, and rescued an
officer and 10 privates of the royal horse guards, captured
several horses, some baggage, fire-arms, &c.
" Although the troops have made painful marches for 20
successive days, without any repose, they pursued the enemy
with the greatest enthusiasm and valour.
" I have been informed that the 'Pretender is not with
these forces ; but as they Consist of 5,000 infantry and 500
cavalry, and are commanded by Cabrera, Forcadell, Sanz,
Tallada, Castellar, and others, and apparently purpose to
march upon Cuenca, it is my intention to follow up the pur-
suit, and avail myself of their disorganisation and dismay.
" I shall apprise your Excellency of my movements fre-
quently, and with exactitude.
Signed) .‘ MARCELINO ORAA."
" Head-quarters, Huete, Sept. 21.
" The news which I received yesterday, although no
positive statement was made, that the Pretender and all the
faction had crossed the Tagus, was such as to induce me to
believe that this was the case, and in this belief I resolved
to follow himTlnforming Count Luchana of my determina-
tion, in order that he might give me the necessary orders on
this head.

" Having, in consequence, followed the route taken by
the faction, which should have all assembled at this place,
an advanced guard of my cavalry came up with the enemy's
rear guard, and took several prisoners. The cavalry con-
tinues to pursue the faction although the night has closed in.
" I have ascertained here that the fugitives with Cab-
rera, Sanz, Zavala, Forcadell, Martinez, and Castellar,
amount to about 6,000 men belonging to the factions of Na-
varre, Aragon, and Valencia; the greater part of the pri-
soners belong to the first mentioned chief. The rebels fly
in the greatest disorder and dismay, scattered about in all
directions, for which reason it is difficult to overtake them.
I shall follow them up to-morrow, and in the mean time
have given orders to all the commanders through whose dis-
tricts they may pass, to send out detachments, and use every
effort to capture the many stragglers that must necessarily
remain behind.

" M. ORAA."
" Head Quarters, Fuentes, Sept. 21.
"At eleven o'clock this night I reached this place with
all my troops, where they have been encamped, being un-
able to proceed further. The enemy on hearing of my ap-
proach abandoned Brihuega this very night, taking the
direction of Trillo. At day-break I propose pursuing
them. To-day the prisoners marched, to the number of
200, guarded by four companies to conduct them there.
I have given the provincial authorities directions to put
themselves in communication with the Government for
the safe conveyance of these prisoners to the capital.
The number who have passed over from the ranks of the
enemy to those of the national troops exceeds 500 men.
The details of the action of the 19th I have been unable,
from incessant marching, to transmit ; but I can assure
your Excellency that the results of that important day
are of great consideration in every point of view."

M. ORAA.

The above includes the whole of the intelligence of
any interest received this morning from Spain, either
direct from Madrid or by way of Paris.
The KING returned on Saturday from the reviews
at Compiegne. They passed off in the most satisfac-
tory manner.

Complaints of the harsh treatment of Count GON-
rALONIERI are repeated in all the Liberal Journals.
The Constitutionnel indignantly denounces the conduct
of the Police and the Government as equally arbitrary
and tyrannical. The following are extracts from the
Paris Papers :
A letter from Odessa of the 14th September contains
the following statements :
" The arrival of the Emperor at the camp has been an-
nounced as an important event. The superior Turkish
officers whose term of quarantine was expired, have set out
in haste ; they as well as all the other persons will have all
their expences paid. This expense is defrayed out of the
Imperial Treasury, which is said to be deeply in debt, ex-
pecting, however, an increase of revenue. But the Court
of Russia has this assemblage more at heart perhaps on
account of its political result than of its military importance.
Favours, orders of knighthood, presents, promises, caresses,
will be lavished on all whose good will it is desirable to ac-
quire or retain ; the object in view is to gain partizans in
every state—to inculcate the Russian policy upon all—in
a word, to seduce, to gain those persons on whom the Em-
peror wishes to be able to depend. The legitimists of all
nations who have been invited will also be of some use. It
is something to support civil war in the want of anything
better, and likewise to cherish hopes.
" With a similar vie*, the Emperor would have it be-
lieved that he is not averse to an amnesty of the Poles ;
he has ordered a report to be made on the subject. Be-
sides, it is known beforehand that pardon will really be
granted only to the deserters, and that the neutrals will
hardly obtain a commutation of punishment. As for the
men who are really patriots, snares will be laid for them ;
so much the worse for those who shall suffer themselves to
lie deluded.

" An English vessel, with a cargo taken on board at
Constantinople, has been detained by the Russian cruisers,
twenty leagues to the south of Zaturka, on the Asiatic
coast. The vessel has been carried into Sebastopol, and
we have just received the news that the crew has been
thrown into prison."—Constitutionnel.
We have received to•day a letter from Marseilles,
dated the 26th, which unhappily confirms the intelligence
that had already reached us, of the appearance of the cho-
lera at Toulon.

A telegraphic dispatch from Toulon, which has this
moment arrived, announces 27 deaths by cholera. From
noon yesterday to noon to-day, a battalion of the 22d of
the line, which had just arrived, had lost twelve men.
There have been cases so rapid in their progress, that
eight more were carried off in two hours.--Le Commerce.
