•nr, wEit ELBE,. JULY 12.—We have received in-
telligence from Spain to the 20th ult. inclusive, ac-
,"'ding to which, on the gth and toth, General
-LASkLLES had disarmed the city and province 'of
Palencia. On the .11th, at day-break, he broke up
for Caliezon, where the rebels,
,to the number of
12,000 men, With six pieces of cannon, had taken
post, under the command of General CUESTA.
Having reconnoitered the position of the rebels,
Brigadier-General SABATHIER made a rapid march
over the bridge under the fire of the enemy, while
General MERLE took the necessary steps to cut off
their retreat :towards Valladolid. The firing having
lasted abbut half an hour, the insurgents were -to--
rilY defeated; and, abandoning their artillery, fled
411 dire6ticfns in the greatest.disorder, with a loss
1000 men. The loss of the French is very in-
considerable, consisting only of six killed, and from
tight to ten wounded.
„• The Bishop and the principal Clergy of ‘Vallado-
lid went out to meet the General, to intercede with
hint for the inhabitants. The Frenclr.division en--
tereti the place amidst a multitude who deserved se-
litre chastisement. They were extremely surptrited
4,1 the clemency they experienced, and expressed
Their conviaion that the troops of no other nation
Would have treated them with such magnanimity.
The disarming of the masse was actively proceed-
With. .About 50 of the most culpable. of the in-
surgeots were shot. Some Monks were Carried off
from each of the cloisters as hostages.

Viecolumns to march towards Tudela, to subdue
inhabitants within a circuit of ten miles, and to
°ring them back to their allegiance.

übsequeni to the action whicirtek place at Ti
dela on the Bth, General LEFEBVRE permitted his
troops to rest on the 9th, 10th and Li th.. This in-
terval he employed re-establishing the bridge over
the Ebro, and disarthing the inhabitants of the
environs.
On the 12th, he , marched to Alagos. At. day 7
break of the 13th, he discovered on the heights an
army of insurgents, who were commanded by PAL-.
LAFOX, the Commander in Chief of Saragossa. Ge-
fieral LEFEBVRE immediately formed his troops in
columns, and ordered them to advance. The insur-
gents were supported by two batteries of six pieces
of artillery each.

General LEFEBVRE proceeded' in person, with his
cavalry and a company of light troops, to take the
insurgents in flank. They made one discharge be-
fore he approached them within reach of musket-
shot, and fled, leaving behind their artillery, and
throwing away their muskets in the flight. Up-
wards of 2000 threw themselves into the Ebro, and
were drowned. The Polish chasseurs cotaduded
themselves with great bravery. Many of them swain
across the Ebro, to cut off a column of the insur-
gents. Four Polish soldiers were killed, and one
Captain was drowned.` The total loss of the French,
on this occasion, consisted in four killed and nine
punded.

'After the affair of Alagos, General LEFEBVRE con-
tinued his march. On !the 14th, he came up with
a considerable body of the rebels of Saragossa,
whom be instantly attacked and defeated, with the
loss of 300 men and two pieces of cannon. After
gaining this advantage, he continued hiamarch'w-
wards the city.

General DUPONT, on reaching Alcola, in Anda-
lusia, on the 7th inst. came in sight of the insur-
gents who were under the command of Dori PEDRO
ESCREURRI. He charged across the bridge, attack-
ed the insurgents, and routed them with the loss
of all their artillery, consisting of six pieces of
cannon.

The numbers of. the enemy were very great,
but they were' dispersed like -clorith of dust; and
at eleven of the same day, General. DUPONT en-
tered Cordova, so that his march towards that city
scarcely experienced a delay of two hours from the
insurgents.

The MagistrateS and principal inhabitants of Val-
ladolid were expoSed to the most dreadful sufferings
while that city remained in possession of the rebels.
They .ereeted a gibbet under -the Captain General
LA'CUE,STA'S windows, in order to compel hint by
terror to place himself at their head. •

•Gener;l CEVALLOS, on his arrival from Segovia at
Valladolid, was put to death by the enraged popu-
lace. His head was stuck on a pike, and carried in
procession thtough the city, atter which it was tossed
about the streets.

The general-disarming was carried on without in-
termission ; and all the people in that, quarter were
returning to their duty.
After the affair of Alagos, General LEFEBVRE con-
tinued his march, and on the t 6th arrived in front of
the gates of Saragossa. He made himself master of
the entrenchments which the insurgents had thrown
up, on the piece of ground which was formerly co-
vered with -olive--trees, carried off the 18 pieces of
artillery by which they were defended, and got pos-
session of the middle, gate.
The greatest anarchy prevailed in the City. On
the -Oth and
,18th various negociations took place
with the insurgents. General LEFEBVRE intended
to remain for some time in the position which he bad
taken, in order to prevent the welhatfeded inha-
bitants from being exposed to the horrors of an as-
sault; and it was supposed that his expetlations of
the happy result of this measure would not he dis-
appointed. _

Marshal-.lVloczY left Cuenza on the 16th, and
was
.directing his march towards Regnera. General
LEFEBVRE was. marching rowards-Alvacette, in the
Kingdoin of Murcia. General WREDEL was ad,
vaucing into the Kingdom of Grenada.
The Prince of CASTEL FRANco, the Councillor of
Castile Don IGNAZ MARTINEZ DB VILLELA, and
the Alcaide Don Louts MARCELLIN PEREIJRA, had
returned from their journey into Arragon. They
madea report to his Majesty on the subject of their
mission, assuring him that the orderly clases of the
inhabitants had concluded themselves in the. most
satisfactory manner; but that it was impossible to
open a correspondence with the insurgents, as they
had returned no answer to any'of their letters. Ge-
neral LEFEBVRE also had a conference with him on
the 20th. The Emperor gave orders that every ef-
fort should be made to open the eyes of the insur-
gents before the City of Saragossa should be exposed
to all the horrors of an assault, which would bent-
tended with the destruction of a great number of
well-disposed people.
Marshal BESSIERES had tried every means which
clemency could suggest to bring the mountaineers to
a sense of their duty, but they had sent him no an-
swer. The Archbishop of Burgos had also written
to: them, and addressed them in a canonical letter,
but these applications having been equally unavail-
ing, the Marshal found himself compelled to resort
to forcible means.

General Ducos marched against the Escudo, and
General MERLE to attack the narrow passes in the
mountains of Reijnora. The insurgents were routed
before they could make more than one discharge,
leaving on the field four 18-pounders, and several
hundreds killed.

On the 21st, the Corps under both 'these Gene-
rals, which had formed a junttibn, approached St.
Andero. The City made proposals of surrender, in
order to prevent an assault.
The Prince of PONTR CORVO was this day to set
out from his head-quarters at Altona for Rendsberg.
It is rumoured that Gluckstadt will speedily be oc.
cupied by a French garrison.

about the middle of this month, will again 'leave the
Baths, to take a journey to Gallicia ; and about the

Hungary, where a Diet will be held, at which,
,kowever, the usual costly ceremonies will be dis-
pensed with. Upon the conclusion of the Diet,
which will not last long, the Coronation of her Ma-
jesty the Empress, as Queen of Hungary, will take
place at Osen, on the 28th of August, on which oc-

again shewn itself in the Dardanelles, by which se--
veral small vessels had been placed in a state Of re-.
quisition, but which had again departed. The ap-,
pearance of this Frigate,gave rise. to a report, that
an English )Feet had made its appearance, which

ancient Macedonia.. Others suppose, however,

RELATIVE TO SPAIN.

PROCLAMATION.

COURAGE TO THE CHRISTIAN ; AND TO SHEW THAT

WE KNOW ALL.

UNFORTUNATE CHRISTIAN—ALLA* spews his
approbation of-you in several ways: You were first
oppressed by a tyrant t, avaricious of money, who
ro4bed my Cousin CHARLES of his treasures, and
you of yobr blood. He fell ; and you aged very
wrong not to treat him with ZARRA,- ZARRA,
(which is as lunch-as to say, not to cut qif his head).
Why did you not do so ? Because you were asleep.
Since that time you have met with another tyrant,
ambitious of kingdoms; and he deprived my Cousin
CHARLES of his throne, including in the privation all
his race in 'order -to keep the possession to himself,
and to come before much lapse of time to deprive
the also of my throne. Arouse,- Christians ! !
French bog; why did you give opium to the Chris-
tians, to get the possession of principal persons,
and to effect your entry without exciting apprehen-
sion ? Why did not you enter sword in hand, that
your objeeis may be'seen, and the Christians may
treat you 'with ,ZARRA ?

Christians, you have lost time ! Desert this tyrant,
as you regard yourselves. Let Seville be loyal,
brave, and firm in doing justice ! Christians, attack
thtse dogs, and defend the Kingdom for the Son
,of
my Cousin ; andlet that cut-risk nation be abhorred
for ever. • Courage, brave Christians!
.Attack them,
and let ALLA the Great assist you. I intreat you to
defend your Kingdoin for my Cousin,.and for the
Englishmen likewise. Let all nations see this, in
order that they, may know who the French Dog is,
and that they may rise against him.
.Sleep no more,
Christians ! Noble Junta of Seville, do strip} and
severe justice on-every traitor towards the Son of my
Cousin ; and may ALLA reward you!
