THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 14, 1836

day, Mr. BEAUMONT, a British subject, was tried for
being a member of the Society of the Rights of Man,
and conspiring against the French Government. By
the advice of Mr. O'CONNELL, Mr. BEA UNIONT
protested against the authority of the Court ; the law
under which he was to be tried ; and claimed to be
released on the ground that he was a British
subject. The Court heard him with much pati-
ence, but overruled the whole of his objections.
Mr. BEAUMONT had previously submitted the parti-
culars of his detention to the English Government.
We shall await the sentence of the Peers of France
before expressing an opinion on the conduct of the
Government with respect to Mr. BEAUMONT. The
question is very likely to be brought under the consi-
aeration of Parliament as soon as the Session shall'
have fairly commenced.
PARIS, JAN. 11.—A letter from Brest of the 7th says,
"The 127th, 128th, 130th, and 131st permanent companies of
the division of crews of the line of this port will embark, it is
said, on the 10th on board the Sante Petre, which will go into
the road the same day, and be soon followed by the Jena.
The Jupiter (of the line) is quite ready for sea, and it is sup-
posed it will sail for Martinique between the 10th and 20th of
this month. The Terpsichore frigate will probably sail at the
same time. The Dryade frigate is to lie-repaired. '
It is affirmed that Marshal Settle will not go to the Chamber
of Peers this year, and will not quit his seat at St. Anans.
On Thursday, at midnight, three Messageries, escorted by
soldiers of the Municipal Guard of Paris, passed through the•
city of Amiens, going to the .citadel of Doullens. It is
affirmed that these carriages contained about 40 persons con-
demned for political offences.
A Ministerial paper says, '‘.‘ Placards hare been posted up a
Nimes during the night demanding Brind or Death.' "
Though a certain class of the citizens is in great distress at
this moment, it does not seem that these placards originate
with them ; on the contrary, they seem grateful for the efforts
of the Magistrates to relieve them, and for the assistance which
they give.
The Indicateur of Bordeaux says, that the damage done by
the fire in the wine magazines at Chartrons is happily much
less than was at first said. The two magazines are not wholly
destroyed, and many hogsheads seem to have been saved. It
is even affirmed, that the insurance companies will not have to
pay above 200,000 francs.--:Messager, Jan. 12.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday, bring advises from
Madrid to the sth instant, and through other channels
we have various communications from the north of
Spain. It appears that the announced capture of the
petty village of Guetaria by the Carlists was prema-
ture, as the outskirts of the village are only in pos-
session of the rebels. Had it not been for the drunken-
ness of so►ne twenty soldiers, to whom the defence of
the place was entrusted, even this would not have taken
place. It is rather amusing to listen to the Post's
fiftieth recapitulation of theAcriertions of the Chris-
tinos, and the growing power of the Monk-KING and
his army. " For the fun of the thing" we are tempted
to quote the following article. given by our Tory Con-
temporary yesterday, and preceded by a flourish of trum-
pets as loud as proclaimed the victories of the Duke of
WELLINGTON. At the same time we would premise
that the advocacy of the Post is almost always ()tui-
tions of ruin to those whom our Contemporary takes
under his protection. We have long remarked that
just before the breaking-down of any party the Post
was sure to step in as a protector, covering it with an
xis much more vulnerable than invisible

" On the 3d instant four peceleros of Zarandaja's column
joined the ranks of his Majesty's army; and since the 15th
the following have likewise deserted :—Two Englishmen,
with their arms, belonging to the garrison of Vittoria ; a ser-
grant and a corporal, one from the province of Soria, and the
otherfrom that of La Quebla : a pecetero from Pastor's band,
and a soldier of the regiment of Almanza ; Don Antonio Gar-
cia, a distinguished sergeant of the 15th regiment of the line;
a soldier of that corps, and an artilleryman ; a soldier of the
4th Light Infantry, and another of that of Soria, coming from
Isabella's troops in Navarre; a Lieutenant of the regiment ot
Sarragosa ;' three sergeants, of whom two are from the regi-
ment of Almanza, and the other from the 4th Light Infantry;
a pecetero and trumpeter from Burgos : these have come from
Bilboa and other garrisons of Biscay."

Let our readers well weigh the extent of these
losses, and then tell us how can any Government pre-
sume to stand against them ? No fewer than two—
yes two !—of the valiant British mercenaries, as the
Post calls them, and whom the same Post has an hun-
dred times told us would swoon at the cocking of a
pistol, have actually deserted—and that too without
flinging their firelocks in a ditch—and joined the
army of Don CARLOS ! But this catastrophe,
fearful as it is, might be remedied had not
DON ANTONIO GARCIA, the distinguished ser-
jea,nt, also joined the deserters from the Constitu-
tional camp. Then, again, the valiant Corporal, and
puffing Trumpeter, whose names are not yet recorded,
must be a vast accession of strength to the Post's-
Anointed—Don CARLOS ! But why should the,
names of these latter distinguithed worthies remai❑
unrecorded ? In justice to such surpassing valour and
long-winded loyalty, the Post is bound by its prin-
ciples to dispatch a courier to Onate, the head-quar-
ters of the Post-King and his army, to learn the
names, birth-places, pedigrees, and adventures of tile
Corporal and Trumpeter, who are about to drive con-
stitutional freedom from the Spanish soil. But lo
we had overlooked the zeal of our Contemporary in
satisfying the legitimate curiosity of martial-minded
Governesses, and hero-loving Lady's-maids. Yes—on
referring a second time to the article published in the
Post,—we find that La Quebla and Burgos had the
honour to give birth to those illustrious worthies whose
fame is destined to spread to the uttermost ends of the
earth. Whether any of the ancestors of this valiant
trumpeter assisted at Jericho we cannot tell ; but we
only await the coronation of Don CARLOS in the
capital to pronounce his brazen blast more terrible
than the rams' horns of Israel. We have only one
question to trouble the Post with, and we beg to ask
it for the information of those fair damsels who peruse
most attentively our Contemporary's warlike lucubra-
tions ; and that is—Pray what may be the ages of the
corporal and trumpeter--what the semblance of their
exterior—and—and—we almost blush as we ask it—
are they provided with helpmates ?
The accounts from Spain are, on the whole, exceed-
ingly favourable. The popularity of MENDIZABAL
increases.

We have received Brussels and German Papers.
Extracts from them will be found in another part of
The Sun.
