THE SUN, LONDON, S

ev o lted provinces, in supposing that their resistance was
chiefly excited by patriotism. They took up arms because
they.were paid, fed, and pretty well clothed ; now that
they begin to be in want of every thing, they desert in
bodies, and the time is not far distant when Don Carlos
will find himself alone.

Letters from St. Sebastian say that the loss of the Car-'
lists on the 6th was greater than at first supposed ; they
add that the scarcity of provisions is daily more and more
felt in the army. Thus the troops encamped near Ernani
are obliged to live on maize bread. Even this wretched
food is but sparingly supplied. The Pretender's purveyor,
weary of not being paid, is gone to France. Even the
smugglers will no longer give any thing on credit.
The Sentinelle des Pyrenees says—Two battalions of
the 4th regiment of light infantry, are expected at St. Se-
bastian, to complete the Anglo-Christino corps, which will
then consist of 16,000 men. _ _

The Carlist deserters prefer enlisting in the corns of the
Chapelgorris. A great number of Christino prisone.rs,
who had been forced to serve in the battalions of Castille,
have at length fled, and been able to join their old standard.
The discouragement of the Carlist troops becomes every
day more threatening. It is deplorable that the Queen's
Government make so little use of this state of things, which
is so favourable to it. The late checks are certainly the
cause that the rebels are so disheartened ; and it is probible
that if they were to experience any'other checks, the de-
spondency and discontent would increase, and that they
would be in a very deplorable situation. This is the mo-
ment that vigour and activity would be well enforced ; but
General Cordova doubtless thinks differently.--Messager,
June 23.

BOURSE, QUARTER TO FOUR.—The Three per Cents. have
declined from 80f. 45c., which was the opening price, to
80f. 40c. sellers, and 80f. 35c. buyers. Spanish Active
Stock has been pretty firm. The opening price was 42i, it
is now 424, buyers. Very little business has been done.
Money is very scarce. London bills are offered at three

The latest advices from Madrid, received in Paris
up to a late hour on Thursday evening, were to the
16th inst.; and the accounts from Bayonne came down
to the 18th. Don CARLOS had appointed General
VILLAREAL Commander-in-Chief of his army, in
the room of EourA. The pretext for this change is
that EGuIA is suffering from over-fatigue, and re-
quires to take the baths ; but the real fact of the matter
is that ERRo, the favourite and principal Minister of
the PRETENDER, dislikes EGUIA, and has contrived
to effect his disgrace. The new Carlist Commander-
in-Chief is a Basque, enthusiastic in his attachment to
the institutions of these Provinces. He titerefore may
be fairly presumed to fight rather for the franchises of
the natives of Biscay than for the elevation of Don
,AnLos.to the Spanish throne.
We have no account of any renewal of hostilities
on the part of the Northern belligerents. The
Christinos and the Carlists seem to have come to
a tacit understanding, that they mutually required
repose after their late fatigues.
The:intelligen(!e from the Capital is wholly unim-
portant. The inhabitants were tranquil, and the New
Ministry in a state of suspense as to its future pro-
ceedings.

THE DUKE OF SUSSEX.—There was no official
notice of the Duke of Sussex's health published yesterday
morning, hut we are informed that his Royal Highness is
going on most favourably.
A letter received yesterday from Lincolnshire,
mentions that Lord Brougham, with his family, is still at
Harrington, the seat of his friend, Mr. Eden. His Lord-
ship's health is said to be nearly restored, but it is understood
that he will continue in the country during the summer.
Lord Ward (of Himley) arrived at Mivart's Hotel
yesterday from a tour. It appears that there is a singular con-
dition annexed to the will of the late Earl Dudley, the bulk of
whose vast property he will inherit—namely, that unless he
forms a matrimonial alliance, he will not enter into possession
of the estates until he attains the age of five-and-twenty. His
Lordship is only in his 19th year.
LORD C RANSTOUN.—The Inverness Courier says
ti,at this Nobleman has given some substantial marks of his
sympathy with his tenantry at Arisaig, who, with many other
persons on the western coast and isles have been suffering
severely from scarcity.
Miss NUNN'S CONCERT.—This lady, who has
not yet made her debut before the public, has, we perceive,
announced a concert for Monday next. Miss Nunn's talent as
a vocalist is spoken of in the highest terms by those who have
heard her in private fashionable circles, and we therefore feel
no hesitation in strongly recommending her to the patronage
of the public.
ENGLISH OPERA HOUSE.—A farce, in one act,
called Mrs. White, was produced last night. The plot turns
on the attachment of Mr. Brown (Hemming) to a young
widow, named " White" (Miss Novello), whom he has de-
scribed to an old anti-matrimonial uncle, Major Pepper (Wil-
liams), as a paragon, and to ensure his consent tells him that
he is married. already, and that a. child, which is at nurse in
a neighbouri:ng cottage, and which is really the child of ano-
ther Mrs. White (Mrs. F. Mathews), is the offspring of this
marriage. His inquiries excite the jealousy of this lady's
husband (Oxberry), who had some suspicions of another Mr.
Brown. In the end, an explanation takes place. The piece
wolf off well, in spite of a little disapprobation at the end,
its success being attributable solely to the goodness of the
acting. Mrs. Keeley made all she could of a very trifling cha-
racter ; while Williams, Oxberry, and Mrs. F. Mathews well
sustained the other parts. The burlesque dance between the
two latter is worth al lthe rest of the piece.
This day has been celebrated at the Assumption
the marriage of M. de Peuche with Mademoiselle Chateau-
briand, niece of the great writer.—lmpartial of Wednesday.
The meeting of the naturalists and physicians of
Germany, for 183 w, will be held at Jena, in the Grand Duchy
of Saxe Weimar, commencing on the 10th, and ending on the
26th of September.—Galignani's Messenger.
Dorchester County Gaol does not contain a single
prisoner for trial at the ensuing Assizes. A man is confined
there on a charge of coining, but the offence was committed in
Somerset.
At Edinburgh on Sunday morning, six young men,
tailors by trade, who had been up all night, went to bathe in
the, sea at the Figgate Whins. A heavy shower of rain com-
ing on, they left the water, and soon after discovered that one
of th eir number was missing. On searching, he was dis-
covered lying in shallow water, with his mouth full of sand;
he was breathing, but soon expired.
A st em of rhubarb was lately grown near Ulver-
stone, wl dch measured upwards of six inches round its base.
The size of the leaf was a still rarer curiosity ; being in cir-
cumferenc to not less than seven feet eight inches 1 This sur-
prising pri Auction was of about eight days' growth.—Kendal
Mercury.
We ur tderstand that the inhabitants of Todmorden
and Hebde n Bridge are very indignant at the introdnction of
certain you ng gentlemen in that neighbourhood into the magis-
terial office ; and that strong remonstrances upon the subject
have been i e:irwarded to the Lord Chancellor and the Lord
Lieutenant .—Halifax Express.

shou
id contribute his mite to a subsi;ription which, to the credit
of ou

early ,
and ardent promoter in the Mayor.--Hull Advertiser.
HA `.LF SOVEREIGNS.—A considerable number of
gold five
I'-guilder Dutch pieces are in circulation, and from the
great res
emblance they bear to the half-sovereign, nineteen
persons c of twenty are imposed upon, and take them for
that coin.
Then t hag been a fearful prevalence of fever in the
little tow n of Douglas for several months back. The oldest
inhabitant s cannot remember of so many deaths as have been
in the em lof winter happening in that town.—Edinburgh
Courant.
On the r afternoon of Friday sennight, some base
miscreant f ire 'd a ball through the dining-room window of Mr.
C. Wallis, 111 irgeon, Liicham. Fortunately the family were
from home E. it the time, and Mr. Wallis had just quitted the
table, or the a lnsequences might have been fatal. The villain
has yet escapoe I detection.
On Friday evening some horses were turned loose
from their stable in Wymondham, to go to water. In their
passage to the water, ono of them ran over a child, and
killed it.
An immem ;e concourse of people assembled on
Thursday afternt ion, at Thorp and Witlingham, to witness
a running match! rem Francis' Gardens to Witlingham Church,
the men to cross • the river three times. Eleven competitors
entered for the pr izes, and notwithstanding the men had to
swim the stream three times, the distance (nearly a mile)
was done in ten linutes.—Yorfolk Chronicle.
