chieri left Paris for Italy on Thursday night : he
nad told everybody he would not set out before Saturday
evening. Messrs. Cousin, Madier do Montjau, Mignet, and
Martin, were the only persons who knew the precise mo-
ment of his departure. A number of individuals who had
to settle with M. Thiers's accounts of a public and private
nature, called to-day, but to no effect at his residences, the
Folie St. James and the hotel of Foreign Affairs. M.
Thiers has left a quantity of business unfinishOd ; large
bundles of paper have been found unopofo bn his desk.
Madame Thiers and her mother*, Madame Dosne, were
ill when they left, notwithsterng which M. Thiers refused
to delay his departurrl for 24 hours. He intends visiting
Italy, SwitzerlP:ild, and Germany, but will not proceed to
Belgium. as was reported. During the last week, the ex-
Minister was "at home" every evening, but his drawing-
rooms, were almost completely deserted. His colleagues,
Messrs. Mottet, Cousin, Mignet, and " the unavoidable"
M. Maider de Montjau, were the only persons who fre-
quented them. M. Sauzet was continually with M.
Thiers. Messrs. Sauzet Passy, and Cousin, atcompanied
the ex-President, in a private carriage, a distance of about
two leagues out of town. The equipages of M. Thiers
consisted of two coaches, in one of which were a bed and
a portable library, composed principally of the collection of
Latin classics, published by M. Panckoucke, and the Pan-
theon Litteruire.—.Messager.
The Correctional Police Court of Versailles, after hear-
ing M. Salmon, the Attorney-General, in the case of M.
'Pillot, the Director of the French Schismatic Church of
the Pecq, and the defence of the latter by M. Ferdinand
Barrot, sentenced the accused to six months' imprisonment
and costs ; and ordered the dissolution of the Religious As-
sociation he had formed at the Pecq, near St. Germain
en Laye.
The conduct of Prussia, whose close connexion with the
Cabinet of St. Potersburgh is well known, may in some
degree justify the apprehensions excited by the report of
the extensive armaments decreed by the last ukase of the
Emperor Nicholas. Letters from Berlin refer to a loan
which the Prussian Government intends to contract, and
respecting which propositions have already been made to M.
Rothschild, of Frankfort. The Prussian Cabinet alleges
as a pretext for that loan, of which it appears anxious to
conceal the real object, financial difficulties of the Govern-
ment occasioned by a considerable falling off in the public
revenues during the last six months of 1885, and the first
six months of the present year.
The reality of those embarrassments is, however, doubted
and in Frankfort the proposition made to the house of
Rothschild is the subject of every conversation. Some
fears are entertained respecting the destination of that loan
and the preservation of general peace.
Nevertheless, it is not thought that the Prussian agent,
M. Munch Stadler, who is said to be related to M. Munch
Bellinghausen, President of the Frankfort Diet, will suc-
ceed in his mission. The brothers Rothschild are at pre-
sent too much taken up with the immense liquidation of
their father's affairs ; they are, besides, said to have re-
turned M. Stadler an answer, which would do them great
credit, if it were true. The expressed their astonishment
to that gentleman at his Government having recourse to
Jewish bankers at the very mament it had enacted, against
their co-religionists, measures that recalled the barbarous
intolerance of the middle age. It might happen that this
severe but just rebuke, addressed to the Prussian Govern-
ment, will induce the latter to repeal a decree offensive both
to reason and humanity.—La Presse.
M. Sauzet is of the late Ministers the one who seems to
be most affected by the loss of his portefeuille. The fol-
lowing words are said to have passed between him and M.
de Montalivet, on the formation of the new Cabinet :
M. Sauzet (with indignation)—" The Guizot Adminis-
tration will be the Polignac Administration of the monarchy
of July ; its 6th of September will be its Bth of August."
M. de Montalivet (smiling)—" Then, M. Sauzet, you
will defend M. Persil."

gave him a passport under the feigned name of Arthur, as
an attache to the British Embassy, which Lord William
Harvey, the First Secretary of the British mission, per-
sonally went to get countersigned by the Portuguese Mi-
nister. This was an act of great humanity; as the ex-
Premier would have assuredly met the fate oi‘ Qu'esada

English gentlttban accompanied Mr. Villiers's courier, but
no-one knew him, or could tell his name. On the road M.
Isturiz was robbed of some money.]

SPAIN.

MADRID, AUG. 31.—During the last four days the
Government has adopted several measures and published
some very important decrees :
I. One which renders 40,000 men of the National
Guards moveable out of their provinces. By this decree
the efforts of the numbers anxious to contribute by their
personal efforts to put an end to the civil war will be
allowed fell scope.
2. new levy of 50,000 men is ordered. Regulations
are introduced into these two decrees whereby all persons
desirous of avoiding to serve are required to pay certain
sums in the latter prior to the drawing, as afterwards no
exemptions will be admitted. This last arrangement will,
it is thought, produce considerable sums without dimi-
nishing the number of recruits.
3. The Government being eager to profit bo the enthu-
siasm excited in the provinces by the Juntas, issues orders
that the Juntas of armament and defence, charged to
effect such object by extraordinary means, without touching
the ordinary revenues of the State, shall be associated
for the perptite with the provincial deputations.
4, Notice is given to all the authorities to use their ut-
most efforts to carry forward the mobilization of the Na-
tional Militia and the new levies.
5. Orders are issued to all persons receiving pensions,
&c., from the State, to take the oath to the Constitution,
or they will forfeit their rights to such pensions.
6. Several of the Ministries and public offices have been
purged of suspicious persons, and others attached to the
Constitution named in their room.
7. The distribution of the new levies among the pro-
vinces has been speedily Aetna.
8. Don Joaquatin Maria Lopez, a young and spirited
orator of the Liberal party in the late Estamento of Pro-
curaderes, has been appointed Under Secretary in the Home
Department. This nomination has given satisfaction, par-
ticularly as in the first 24 hours he effected the removal of
upwards of 40 of the agents of the Isturiz Administration,
and named decided Liberals in their room.
9. A decree is issued to give notice that in the Home
Department none but decided adherents of the Constitution
will be employed. Such of those as served in the former
period of freedom, but do not preserve their energies, can-
Opt expect to be employed.
10. The National Guards are ordered to be re-organised
according to the law of the Cortes of the 29th of June,
1822, and their officers are to be elected by it. Inspectors
are ordered to be named in each of the provinces, to encou-
rage and arrange the National Guard.
1L 'r most important decrees have been published
respecting the raising 200,000,000 reels, by payments in
advance of the provinces, in order to meet the increasing ex-
penditure of the army, and to pay the approaching .divi-
dends or interests of the debt.
Preparations are going forward for electing through all
the country the ayuntamientos or corporations, according to
the regulations formed by the Cortes in 1821, and a com-
mittee is to be named to examine which of the other mea-
sures then sanctioned ought to be now called into practice.
Several of the convents of nuns, containing but a small
number, have been emptied by the removal of the recluses to
others of their own order.
SEPT. I.—The courier not having started, lam enabled
to state, that the impatience of the public to learn the exact
details of the affair at Jadraque is very great. Exagge-
rated rumours are current, and of course tend to increase
that impatience.
The details of this affair, as far as I can learn them from
good sources, are, that the column of the Queen'S troops
which left this capital on Tuesday week, consisting of a bat-
talion of the provincial Grenadiers of the Royal Guard, an-
other of the Chasseurs of the same corps, two piece's of can-
non, and 25 Cuirassiers, having encountered the rebels,
showed the greatest eagerness to fight. They were the sol-
diers whose conduct at the Royal residence of La Granja
had produced the change of Government. Brigadier Lopez,
who Was at their head, expressed his wishes to delay the
contest until other columns of the troops should come up,
upon which, with cries of " No delay, no pie making, no
wavering." they, although they had.but few officers in whom
they could place confidence, demanded to be led forward.
At the first onset they took 40 prisoners, and in pursuing
their enemy they fell into an ambuscade ; for while Gomez
with 1,500 chosen Navarrese kept them in front, Don Basi-
lio, who, instead of having crossed the Ebro, as was asserted
in the Madrid papers, had effected a junction with Gomez,
attacked them in the rear. Another small party of insur-
gents had also come from Arragon. The great object of
the rebel chiefs being to obtain possession of the cannon,
seven several attempts were made before they succeeded.
The Queen's troops lost 500 men. Lopez, with 600 others,
is stated to have gained Siguenza. The loss of the Carlists
is described as equal to that of the Queen's troops, as the
soldiers fought with great desperation. The Queen's troops
had but 25 cavalry, while the rebels had upwards of 200.
The Minister of War, General Rodil, continues with the
column which left Madrid at Alcala, in order to protect
the capital, while the other columns mentioned in the of-
ficial article of last night are in movement towards Jadraque,
between which place and Brihuaga the rebels, to the num-
ber of 5,000 men, still remain. There are said to be some
French and Portuguese officers with them.
As the garrison of Madrid is with the column at Alcala,
the National Guard does the duty of the city, with the ex-
ception of the mere Royal Guards at the Palace.
This movement of the Carlist appears to have awakened
the. Government to a sense of the danger which the lying
despatches from the Generals in the province of Old Castile
had completely disguised.
The Gazette of this morning contains some important
decrees-Ist, for punishing according to the law of the
Cortes of the 17th of April, 1821, all conspirators against
the Constitution and the Throne ; 2d, for making effective
regulations for criminal trials, according to the law of Sep-
tember, 1820 ; 3d, for authorizing the civil magistrates to
grant licenses for the marriage of persons of thepoble caste
in certain cases—the caste of Nobles in Spain extends to
individuals of old families, however poor and debased, yet
they were called on to pay fees for permission to marry ;
4th, for abolishing the system of entails, and rendering
property free, according to the law of the Cortes of the
27th of September, 1820. All these arrangements are of
course subject to the revision of the Cortes, and those men-
tioned in yesterday's letter, owe their validation at present
to the Committee of Patriotic Donations, and of the Ways
and Means for putting down the Civil War, of which M.
Mendizabal has been President since the late resignation of
the Marquis of Miraflores. The Government, since the
resignation of the latter, has given considerable power to
that Committee, which consists of several patriots who de-
dicate themselves to promote the welfare of the country
without fee cr emolument.

M. Sauzet (wiiiiaignity)---" And you, my dear Count,
you will save him."

The King of Naples is said to have given orders to as-
semble a corps of 15,000 men on the frontiers of the Pon-
tifical States.

The new Russian Ambassador, Count Leon Potocki,
was expected in Stockholm.
The Augsburg Gazette states that the Grand Duke Mi-
chael is to proceed to Prague, in order to attend at the
coronation of the Emperor of Austria. The Russian Am-
bassador, M. de Tatischef, will repair from Prague to
Warsaw, after the ceremony, and there await the arrival of
the Emperor Nicholas.

It has been reported in the German circles which are
generally well-informed, that the reigning Duke of Bruns-
wick intended shortly to visit Paris. The object of hi,
journey is said to be a matrimonial negotiation-
with one of
the daughters of King Louis-Philippe. It is doubtful,
however, adds the correspondent, that Prince William will
be more successful in Paris than in Berlin and Vienna, as
few Sovereigns feel disposed to accede to the reigning
Duke's demand, before the difference between him and his
brother shall have been adjusted.
The Moniteur Algerien, of the 27th ult., states that,
notwithstanding the results of the battle of Sikak, Abdel
Kader still retained numerous partisans, and kept the
province of Oran in agitation. In Consequence, General
Letang left Oran on the 16th, with a strong column, to
scour the country in different directions. That night the
troops bimuaeked at the Fig-tree. On the 17th they
fell in with a party of Garrabas, of whom they killed
two, and took two prisoners, with as many horses. On
the 18th it halted for the night near the sources of the
river Tlelat. On the 19th the second brigade remained
in this position, while the first moved towards the Beni-
Amers. The vanguard fell in with some Garrabas, and put
them to flight. Soon afterwards it became exposed to a
re from the Beni-Amers, who assumed an attitude which
induced the Genc-ral to march on till he reached their silos
(corn stores), 'which were given up to the auxiliaries. The
flocks and.'aerds could not be surprised, but the enemy had
two nr..a killed and three horses taken. The chiefs of
Aukfd Aly and Sidi Rhanam came in the afternoon to
C"..ttleral Letang, who enjoined them to accompany him in
the further excursions he intended to make, under the pe-
nalty of having their corn carried off. He likewise insisted
upon their sending provisions to the market of Oran ; con-
sequently, nineteen oxen and several loads of corn were on
the following day brought in to be sold. General Letang
intends to continue his excursions round Oran, and thus
keep in subjection, or at least in neutrality, such tribes as
might otherwise be inclined to take up arms.
The Messager has a letter from Bayonne, which says :
—" Don Carlos has solicited an intervie-:v with General
Harispe. The latter, after apprying; to the Government of
M. Thiers for instructions, consented to the desire of the
Infante. But Don Carlos having thought proper to fix
upon a village on the Spanish territory, near the frontier,
for the meeting, it did not take place. General Harispe
replied to the Pretender that, as it was he who wanted to
see the French General, he ought to give himself the
trouble to come to him at Bayonne. Here the affair rested."

The Duke del Infantado, who during many months has
resided under a sort of surveillance at Guadalajara, arrived
yesterday in Madrid. His notorious adhesion to absolute
principles, has rendered him much suspected. Several of
his best horses, as well as those of other inhabitants of that
town, were lately sent to the rebels.
THURSDAY AFTERNOON.— Nothing official has been
published, for although several despatches have arrived
from General Redd, none have come from Siguenza. It is
said that General Rodil, finding the division of the army of
the north under Brigadier Alaix had attacked the rebels-in
the direction ofßrihOagd, has moved from Alcala in order
to sT.T.tlt it. The diligence from Guadalajara has left this
city. Nothing new from the north.
THURSDAY EVENING, Eight o'clock.—General Rodil
arrived in this capital at two o'clock this afternoon.
The apprehensions of the inhabitants of Madid have
passed over.
