UR Friends, and all those who may have to write
N., to us, are requested to be particular in directing,
HEINE BROTHERS, in HAMBURGH,
and to observe, that a letter with one inclosure doubles the Postage
only, but several inclosures would by far increase the same. Thus
lilt., 201., or 301., for instance, if remitted in One Bank of Eng-
land Note would only cause double Postage, but 101. remitted in
iwo notes, would be liable to a much higher charge. It is there-
fore most advisable, for any Person having to remit Money to Ham-
bur 711, to forward the amount in One Note; or having to receive
Aloney from Hamburgh, to receive the same in One Note, when-
ever possible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England,
surpassing the usual amount of One Bank of England Note, may
'rat,ler be made in Bills of Exchange, on London.
To save expenses that may as well be avoided, we request our
Correspondents not to overlook these particulars.

LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 9, 1836.

DEFEAT OF GOMEZ.

We have just received most important news from
Cadiz and Gibraltar. The rebel GOMEZ and his
bands were dispersed by General NA RVAEZ, at the
head of an inferior force, on the evening of the 25th
ult. We predicted this termination of GOMEZ'S
campaign, from the instant we learned that NA It-
VAEZ had been appointed to succeed ALAIX as
second in command under the General-in-Chief.
The details of this brilliant affair will be read with
interest. General NAttvAEz is a fine fellow, full of
enthusiasm, and in the very flower of his age. He
is just the man to oppose to GOMEZ, who is as full of
stratagems and tricks of every kind as an old fox. We
have not the slightest doubt of the speedy extermination
of the whole of the Carlist'rebels in the South of Spain.
The QUEEN'S troops want only fair play to be vic-
torious everywhere, and that will be no longer denied
them, if further changes be not suddenly made in the
command of the army. It is barely possible that
GomEz may succeed in escaping with his life back to
the Basques, but the plunder which he amassed, toge-
ther with his followers, ,are already lost to him.

The instant NA It VA EZ and RIB EIRO have settled
with the rebels in the South they will proceed with
their united forces to pay Don CARLOS a visit in the
North. We already know what must be the result,
and so by this time does the CITIZEN KING. His
:West Christian MAJESTY, as Sovereign of the Tele-
graphic Despatch Office, will of course carefully con-
ceal, for a few days at least, all intelligence respecting
the successes of the QUEEN'S troops ; but will this alter
the opinion which Europe has formed of his conduct
with respect to the Quadruple Treaty ? With all his
cunning he will discover in the end that " honesty is
the best policy." The following arc the despatches
just received from Cadiz :

" OFFICIAL NOTICE OF THE MILITARY COMMANDANT OF

THE PROVINCE OF XERES.
" Marshal del Campo the Conde de Mirasol having yes-
day affected a junction of the troops under his command
with those of the division of General Narvaez, has just ar-
rived in this city, and has communicated to me the follow-
ing intelligence
Yesterday, the 25th of November, at two o'clock in
the afternoon, the division under the command of Narvaez
encountered the faction under the command of the rebel
Gomez, near Arcos. The rebels were to the number of three
battalions of Aragon, five of Valencia, and four of Castile,
with 900 cavalry. Brigadier General -Narvaez•attacked
them without regarding their strength, and drove them from
position to position as far as the Sierra of Aznar, which
position the enemy, already benighted, also lost. The
only cavalry under Narvaez, which consisted but of 210
horse, did prodigies of valour ; and the panic-stricken
enemy, dispersed on every side, re-assembled about half-
past twelve at night, to the number of 2,000, at Villa-
martin. Brigadier-General Narvaez, with a thousand
horse, marched after them on the 26th at three o'clock,
to consummate his work, and will proceed this night
towards Montellano, followed by General Rivero, with
9,000 infantry. Those who are acquainted with the Sierra
de Aznar will appreciate the great merit of the division of
Narvaez, in having carried by night this position, which was
defended by three battalions. The troops of Narvaez saw
perfectly the convoy of their plunder, which consisted of an
immense quantity of baggage ; but the troops of her Majesty
the Queen had only to seek out the enemy and exterminate
them. All which I make known to your Excellency.
"PEDRO BASA-DONNA.
gc Xeres, Nov. 26, 1836, at midnight:,
REPORT OF THE THIRD REGIDOR OF TIIE MUNICIPALITY
OF ARCOS TO THE COMMANDANT-GENERAL OF Tux

PROVINCE.
The 3d regidor of the Ayuntamiento of Arcos in an
official despatch of this date has communicated the fol-
lowing ;-
4. General Narvaez remained last night encamped in
sight of the rebels a little more than a league from this
town, and to-day he has effected a junction with General
Rivero, who at the same time was at the head of the po-
pulation. The battle of yesterday was a glorious one for
the Liberal cause. The faction suffered much loss, without
abandoning its usual tactics of endeavouring to avoid an
action ; but this did not save them from suffering a heavy
loss. At the present moment, according to the same ad-
vices, they are attacked by General Alaix in the neighbour-
hood of Villamartin.
In order that the defeat of the faction of the rebel
Gomez may be complete, it is necessary that the National
Guard should be on the alert to scour the neighbouring
country, and seize the dispersed rebels, who must still be
numerous, since I am assured that the faction consisted of'
2,500 men, and that half of these at least have escaped from
the destruction which on all sides pursues them. The tri
umphant troops of the Queen arc now conveying great num
hers of prisoners to this capital.
(Signed)
" Xeres, Nov. 26.
To the Commandant-General of the Province."
in:addition to the above, letters have been receive

" MANUEL PINO.

in the Mcity, stating that GOEZ, after escaping from
NARVAEZ, was attacked by ALA Ix, near Villa Mar-
tin, from whence he made a precipitate retreat with
only 2,900 followers. The rest were scattered in every
direction. The rebel Chief had lost his baggage, and
the greater pant of his military stores. At eight o'clock
on the morning of the 26th, RIBEIRo's division
effected a junction with the force under NARVAEZ,
SO that NARVAEZ had completely beaten the enemy

before RIBEIRO arrived. He instantly selected a
thousand horse, and pursued the enemy, while
RIBEIRO followed with the infantry. _

The following letter from Gibraltar is copied from
a Second Edition of the Times. We have great doubts
of its authenticity :
" GIBRALTAR, NOV. 25.—During the last four or five
days we have been in a state of constant excitement by
the appearance of General Gomez and his band in our im-
mediate vicinity, while the retreating Queen's troops from
Ronda, Algeziras, and San Roque, came nearly under our
guns. These were under the command of General Ordovez,
Governor of Ronda, and in all about 1,000 or 1,200 men,
but not more than 200 regular troops, whilst Gomez is
stated to have had 14,000 of all sorts.
On Saturday last it was known that the latter was draw-
ing nigh our neighbourhood by the people flocking towards
Gibraltar, bag and baggage, and on Sunday morning masses
wire assembled on the neutral ground, surrounded with
trunks, beds, bedding, &c. None of these, however, were
admitted within our walls, indeed it was a sad sight to see
so many poor creatures, especially the women and children,
in such misery ; but the benevolent feeling of the garrison
has not been idle, and a large subscription, for the purpose
of giving them soup and bread, has been made, and most
seasonably administered to them.
" On Monday we were in hourly expectation that the
Carlists would make an attack upon the miserable Queen-
its ; but our Governor having sent Gomez a flag of truce,
intimating that—if he came within our lines—he would
be compelled to fire upon him, it is supposed prevented
it ; for neither on that day, nor the following, did they
show any disposition to do so. On Tuesday, about noon,
the Carlists began to move off from our neighbourhood to
Algeziras, to do which they have to pass two rivers de.
bouchant in our bay, towards which our brig of war
Jasseur, and a Portuguese corvette, Eliza, stood for the
purpose of annoying their passage. They were too late to
do so effectually ; but they peppered away at them for two
hours, and it was thought had made great havoc ; but on in-
quiry we cannot learn that they did much damage, but they
certainly prevented more passing by that route. During Wed-
nesday Gomez quitted our neighbourhood, and, as you will
see, it was time, as General Ribeiro's division marched into
San Roque on Wednesday night, and started again yesterday
morning in his pursuit, but not before our Governor had
time to ride out to San Roque and take a look at them,
and they arc a very fair body of men, especially the cavalry
(800), who were well appointed and well mounted, com-
manded by the same officers who gave them the thrashing
at Villa Robledo. If the Queen's troops mean to fight at
all, now is their time, and Gomez cannot escape. We shall
see ; they are pressing him so hard now, that 50 or 60 pri-
soners were made of his rear-guard yesterday.
" Our exchange upon London is 511. They have lately
shipped off 30,000 Mexicans to Corfu ; they are not re-
lished here."

We have received Gibraltar Chronicles to the 25th Nov.,
from which we make the subjoined extracts :
" From Los Barcos, Gomez last night pursued his
march by the road leading to Alcala de los Gazulez.
General Ribero had arrived at San Roque in the afternoon,
and set out in pursuit of him this morning at 8 o'clock.
His division is composed of between 7,000 and 7,500 foot,
under the orders of General Pardo, and upwards of 800
horse under those of General Leon. At the moment of
starting he received information that the Ximena militia
had taken 400 men of Gomez's rear-guard. General Or-
doncz accompanies him. His own troops remain behind,
though they have marched from the Spanish lines, together
v.ith those under the Commandant General of the neigh-

bouring district.
" The Queen's authority has been re-established in Al-
gesiras and St. Roque. It is reported that five boxes, with
spucie in them, supposed to have been shipped off by Gomez,
have been seized in the waters of Algesiras by one of the
Queen's armed vessels. A rebel officer, who was wounded
the other day by the shot from the Jascw, is also stated to
have died. _

" We hear , from Malaga, by the Calpc, that Brigadier
Narvaez was by the last accounts in Algar—a town between
Alcala de los Gazulez, Arcos, and Borgne, opposite the
Cabra mountains, where he was waiting for the band, in
case it should shape its march towards Puente Ojen. The
same letters state General Alaix to have spent the night of
the 221 in Monda, whence he proceeded to Ronda.
" Gomez is leaving our neighbourhood. Ills troops arc
seen from the rock, on the points which they occupied, in a
westerly direction. The Cadiz Estafette has not arrived,
but the Manchester has brought accounts from that city.
Tho rebels being known to be in.the province, the Captain
General declared the city in a state of war, and the division
of Militia belonging to it had been stationed in the island
of Leon. The country between Cadiz and Cordova must
have been clear of rebels. _ _ _

~"Gomez on the 21st ult. entered St. Roque, but it being
mail-day we had not time to alter the article. His num-
bers are variously stated at 8,000 to 9,000 foot, and from
1,000 to 2,000 horse. They are well clothed, well dis-
ciplined, and the leader alone levies contributions, the men
being made punctually to pay for all they get. Their main
body remains at St. Roque, and the Queen's troops in the
Spanish lines. A few gun boats are lying at anchor in their
wings. The latter have occasionally fired upon some small
Carlist parties, which come down to the beach."

The following intelligence from Lisbon—most im
portant if correctly stated—appears in a second edi
lion of a Tory Morning Contemporary :

" LISBON, DEC. L—All minor topics are thrown into
the shade by the important intelligence that the long ex-
pected Miguelite expedition has at last made its appearance.
It consists of two steamers and a large sailing vessel, all of
which were seen off Lagos, with the old Portuguese, or,
as it is called the Miguelite, flagc, flying, by the French brig
of war Orestes, which arrived here this morning with the
news. The Orestes chased them, but they soon contrived to
get out of sight. As there are two Portuguese ships
of war cruising off the coast, and as the chief measures of
precaution have been taken in that quarter, I should not
be at all surprised if their appearance there should prove
to have been a mere feint, the really intended point of de-
barkation being somewhere in the North. The Govern-
ment, whatever they may pretend to the contrary, are
greatly alarmed ; for they know very well that the troops,
especially the cavalry, are not to be depended upon, and
that the people are generally disgusted, and would gladly
accept any Government that would release them from the
miserable thraldom in which they are kept by the clubs
and the National Guards. The force in Algarve does not
amount to 2,000 men, and the whole of the army falls short
of 10,000.
" A decree was issued for a recruitment of 8,700 men. It
is rather droll that they should think of raising more men
when they cannot pay those they have got. The soldiers
are all five months in arrears—the officers double that time.
The navy have nearly given up all hopes of ever more me-
in.- the value of a penny piece. The Friars' titulos for
their stipend are at a discount of 85 per cent. The Monte
Pio, or pension tickets, are valueless in the market, and
altogether there is about as Lmuch wretchedness and starva-
tion here as there ever was. The discontent created by
all this is highly favourable to Don Miguel's views."

The speech of his Excellency the Lieutenant-Go-
vernor of Upper Canada, on opening the Provincial
Parliament on the 9th of November, will be found in
another part of The Sun. Its language and tone—
with the exception of one paragraph—is firm with-
out arrogance, and conciliatory without meanness. In
the paragraph to -which we take exception, the Lieu-
tenant-Governor informs the Canadians that the Le-
gislature of Upper Canada " is not imbued with power
to alter the Constitution imparted to it by the Impe-
rial Parliament ;" and he then goes on to repeat a de-
claration made by him on arriving in the province, to
the effect that if the inhabitants of the whole province
were simultaneously to petition him to alter a single
letter of that solemn Act, he had "neither the power nor
inclination so to do." Now, if the agitated state of
the public mind be seriously taken into considera-
tion, and if the feelings of high excitement under
which this declaration must necessarily be read be
taken
fully
into account, it must be granted that
such a declaration as the above is calculated to drive
the already disaffected 'to a state of frenzy. The Pro-
vincial Parliament of
Upper Canada is much more
competent to decide
upon the extent of its own powers
than is Sir FRANCIS BOND HEAD ; and as for the
inclinations of the Lieutenant-Governor, apart from
the authority appertaining to his office, the people of
Canada sought not to be made
acquainted with them.
We have frequently expressed our admiration of the
HEAD conducted
way in which Sir FRANCIS BOND
the affairs of Canada ; if we have a prejudice, it is in
his favour ;- but we cannot pass over in silence such a
very unwise and uncalled-for declaration,on the part
of the representative of our Gracious SOVEREIGN, in
an address to the representatives of his people. The
Canadians are a people not to be intimidated. Th
_..ey
know, as well as we do, that the moral power of their
Legislature is only bounded by the physical strength of
the people who voluntarily acknowledged.it, as the organ
