LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 19, 1837.

The Paris Journals of Wednesday have all been received.
The Cbarte and Minziteur contain no official intelligence of
the capture of Hernani by ESPARTERO, but the fact is
happily confirmed. General ESPARTERO entered Hernani
on the 12th, after some hours' hard fighting. He made six
hundred prisoners, killed sixty of the enemy, and took thirty
guns, besides a large quantity of warlike stores and muni-
tions. The confirmation of this news in Paris produced
a rise in the price of stocks on Tuesday and Wednesday.
We copy from our Contemporary, the Morning Chronicle,
the following important news from the theatre of war in
Spain, purporting to have been received by an extraordinary
express, at an early hour to-day
BAYONNE, MAT 16.—The Infante Don Sebastain, was,
on the moring of the 14th, with four squadrons, at Huarte
Oraquil. Eleven battalions, and nine cannon, occupied Arbiza.
" The Viceroy was at Puenta de la Reyna, apprised of
these movements, and in communication with Gen. Sucrens
at Logrono.

" On the 15th Espartero was in possession of Astigarraga,
Hernani, Urnieta, and Andoain. He was informed that the
Christinos, from Vittoria, had forced the passage of Arlaban.
" To.day Gen. Evans is to march on Irun, to which the
garrison of Oyarzun has retired. The Christinos are to be
seen on the heights between Irun and Oyarzun.
" The Carlists are firing, and our troops are on the line to
protect the territory and receive the refugees."
We expect that the next intelligence will announce the
capture of Irun by General EVANS. Fontarabia cannot
hold out after the capture of Hernani, and thus at the very
commencement of the campaign the communication between
France and the head-quarters of the Pretender will be cut
off. In the mean time the Christinos have a strong force
on the Ebro, so that the Carlists cooped in on all sides will
be reduced to the alternative of fighting or laying down
their arms. All now depends on the vigilance and the
valour of ESPARTERO.

The Paris Papers of Wednesday contain no domestic
news of any moment. A Royal Ordinance, granting
an amnesty to such of the National Guards as have
been sentenced to imprisonment for breaches of dis-
cipline has given great satisfaction to that corps.
The question of the amnesty continues to be generally dis-
cussed in all political circles : and we are happy to add, that
on all sides it has produced the best effects upon the minds
of the people. All are unanimous in lauding the humanity
of the KING, and in expressing a conviction that no further
attempt will be made upon his person. A hundred
thousand bayonets, and the example of a thousand public
executions would not have obtained for the KING the free-
dom of action, and that sense of personal security which he
has experienced since the granting of the amnesty.
On Tuesday the KING visited the Museum at Versailles,
where he reviewed the pupils of the military school of St.
Cyr. As the KING was returning, accompanied by the
Duke of ORLEANS, the people collected in crowds on the
Pont Royal and on the Pont de Concorde, and greeted
him with loud cheers. His MAJESTY appeared deeply af-
fected by this unexpected proof of the returning love of
the Fiench nation.

The Timeit has published a Second Edition, confirming
the intelligence which we have copied above from the
Chronicle, relative to the occupation of Astigarraga, Her-
mini, "(Meta, and Andoain by ESPARTERO'S troops ; and
adding, that General IRRIBARREN was on the 14th per-
fectly aware of the movements of Don SEBASTIAN, and in
communication with Generals BUERENS and LocinoNo. The
accounts reached Paris by telegraph, and were published
in a second edition of the Charte of Wednesday night.
Thus ESPARTERO has succeeded in cutting off all commu-
nication between Irun, Fontarabia, and Oyarzun, and the
main body of the Pretender's army, so that the garrisons
must surrender at :discretion, unless they prefer flying
into France.

And now that the cause of Don CARLOS is hopeless, we
would recommend to Lord PALMERSTON the divising of
some plan for allowing the Pretender, his Nephew, and his
family to quit Spain in safety. His blood would serve no
end sanctioned by religion or sound policy, and therefore
we would, if possible, spare its useless effusion. When
France suffered CHARLES X. to take shelter unmolested in
Holyrood House, she did more to advance the cause of
liberal ideas, than she could have done by the execution of
twenty regal tyrants. She proved to Europe, as did Eng-
land in 1688, that a free people has, and dares to exercise, the
right of deposing Sovereigns and Pretenders to sovereignty,
without being driven to the commission of what despots
stigmatize as a judicial murder. She established the amen-
ability of Kings, as Kings, to the high behests of the people,
without staining her hands with the blood of the individual.
The same may be said with respect to Portugal. The
execution of Don 11liouEL would not have struck such
terror to the hearts of the• great Northern despots
as his presence as a pauper at the Court of Rome. The
miserable exile remains a living evidence of the abjectness
to which a free people can constitutionally reduce a bad
Sovereign without so much as hurting a hair of his head.
It would be worthy of our Government +4 recommend A
similar policy to the Spanish Author ties and even to
