FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, Nov. 4.—Letters from Bayonne, of
Oct. 29, give very little news from Spain.
It is said that Guergue, who gave the order to
massacre the 160 men to whom a capitulation
had been granted at Estrella, is taken prisoner.
.Guergue, as well as the Cure Merino, to make
use of the words of the Drapeau Blanc, is well
known for his opinion in the North of Spain.
Travellers who met the band of Quesada during
their precipitate flight before the Constitution-
alists, inform us that they are in the most miserable
plight. They are almost naked, and dying with
hunger. lie was directing his route towards
Guipuzcoa ;—his retreat into France is cut off.
It is thought he will endeavour to reach the
.coast to embark. A part of the forces under
Zarco Del Valle, Espinosa, and Jaureguy, are
• in pursuit of him.
On the 28th repo'rts prevailed at Bayonne that
orders had arrived at the Sous-Prefecture to
make the Spanish Refugees repair into the in li
-
ferior of France, or return to Spain.
An order of the Municipality has been
published here (Bayonne) for all Spanish Refugees
lo present themselves during the day before the
Commissary of Police. This measure is perhaps
in consequence of the demands so frequently
made by the Spanish Government, that the
factious Refugees should not be allowed to retain
any power of encouraging disorder in Spain.
All the park of artillery which was on the
glacis has been sent to Marrac. It is complete)
und will suffice for, an army of 50,000 men.
General Charles O'Donnel, who is still here,
proposes, it is said, to assemble all the Spanish
refugees to form with them the skeleton of a
.7.lew regiment of the Faith ; but who will com-
plete it ? The Chiefs of the Serviles have had
several conferences among themselves, and with
some other persons, which have astonished many
people.
The directing Spanish Committee of the coun-
ter-revolution has appointed a Jnnta for the Bis-
cayan Provinces. The device which the Servile
Committee has adopted is—" Religion and the
King, or Death."
The Servile Chief, Salaberry, shewed before
-his execution at Pampeluna profound repentance
for having assisted in plunging his country into a
civil war. He avowed that he had allowed
-himself to be deluded, and he asked pardon of
his country.
The three regiments of Engineers are to fur-
nish, it is said, each three companies, to form
.part of the Army of Observation.—(Constitution-
nel.)

Another letter from Bayonne, of the same
date, says that Mina is prosecuting his prepara-
tory operations : he leaves nothing to chance;
'is plan is comprehensive, and his first movement
will be decisive.—(Journal de Paris.)
Yesterday the King received, in private audi-
ence, M. the Duke de Fitz-James, President of
the Electoral College of the Department de la
Vendee.
The following intelligence from Rome is dated
the 19th ult.:—" The Duke de Laval Montmo-
rency, Extraordinary Ambassador of his Majesty
the King of France to the Holy See, yesterday
presented his credentials to his Holiness. This
morning the Chevalier d'ltalinski, Envoy Extra-
-ordinary of the Emperor of Russia at Rome, set
of!' for Verona."—(Moniteur.)
The French Funds on Monday had again rallied a little. The
Five per Cents. opened at 931. 25c. ; declined to 931.15 c., and
closed at 93f. 20c. Neapolitan, 804 f. Bank Stock, 12871. 50c.
Exchange upon London, one month, 251.40 c.; at three months,
25f. 25c.

ZANTE, OCT. 12.-f1 firman of the Grand
-Seignor of the 10th of last month, directed to
the Pacha of Lepanto, enjoins, that in ,conse-
quence of the infidel Christians persisting in their
rebellion,-and finding men to purchase them when
they are made slaves, and even when they become
-the property of Turks, if the hardness of their
hearts does not permit them to embrace Islamism,
they shall not in future be made slaves, and
every one of the faithful, armed for the cause
of the Prophet, is to put every Christian to
death who asks quarter. The days of favour
for the impious race of the Nazarenes being
passed, never again to be revived, the only one
God and his prophet having ordered it thus at
present and for the future. In order to fulfil his.;
orders and accomplish his high will, all the slaves
not sold, belonging to the Grand Seinnor, ac-
cording to the law, shall be put to death im-
mediately after the receipt of the present order;
and hereafter the house of Harb (Christianity)
shall be treated in this mariner, from the begin-
ning of the next campaign, in the two hemis-
pheres, Anatolia and Europe.
consequence of this sacrilegeous order, 12
Christian families, and a multitude of the inha-
bitants of the Morea, detained in the Castle of
Lepanto, have been beheaded' in the fortress.
Among these unfortunate people were the father,
mother, and sister of a man named Demetrius,
formerly the servant of the Consul of France at.
Patras, who had saved a part of these people,
and almost the whole of the population of the
village of Drepanium, situated near the Castle of
the. Morea.*
We are so accustomed here to such horrors
that our Government has found this natural and
according to order of things. In consequence it
has been prescribed to the British Chanc,4lor of
the Consulate of Patras not. to interfere in favour
of aay,Christian ; a direction which appears very
-useless to a man to whom the Greeks are in-
debted for many of their misfortunes. This in.
dividual, as well as the the Consul Descamisado
of Spain, who has particularly distinguished him-
self-by a blind fury- against the Greeks, merit
the en tire confidence of the Turkish Government;
and if Ali Pacha returned to the world he might
safely take them both into his service.—(Drapeau
Blanc.)
TRIESTE, OCT. 20.—Reports are again in cir-
culatiun of another engagement between the

* It is useless to observe that this Christian Consul, proud
.of calling himself " a subject of the Bourbons, the defender of
the Cross, the stay of the miserable," is the Chevalier Hugues
I'9uqueville, whom Providence has miraculously saved and re-
storeii to his country. This dignified Consul is at present at
Marseilles, where he is highly honoured by every Royalist, and
.every friend of religion.—(Note of the Editor of the Drapcatt

ree_ _is Teets. They were seen on
Oct. 6, in the waters of Milo ; the Turkish fleet
appeared to direct its course to the Dardanelles.
VIENNA, OCT. 23.—Official news from Bucha-
rest announces that Prince Ghyka, Hospodar of
Wallachia, arrived on Sept. 26, and was solemnly
installed Oct. 6.
On the 27th September the garrison of Bucha-
rest, composed of Turks and Tartars, under the
orders of the Kiaja Pacha and the Sultan of the
Tartars, evacuated that town. On the 21st the
Saporagers had begun their march to cross the
Danube.
Immediately after the departure of the garri-
son, the Capidigi- Veschi, Ka va nos Oglu, ele-
vated to the dignity of Vasch-Vaschli-Aga, was
appointed to take care of public tranquillity.
His troops, amounting to 2,000 men, occupy dif-
ferent parts of Wallachia, and perform the duties
formerly confided to the Arnauts.
Letters from Jassy of the 11th, say that the
Turks evacuated that city on the 9th to return
home. The new llospodar, Jean Stourdza, ar-
rived on the same day with a numerous suite.
The police agents arrived with the new Vaschi-
Veschi-Aga amount to nearly a thousand, and
are spread abroad in different districts, as in
Wallachia. ln this manner, the total evacuation
of the two Principalities is carried into effect by
the troops of the Grand Signior.—(Austrian Ob-
server.)
Chourschid has caused the three Archbishops
and the Priniat'e whom hp sent into the Morea to
propose an amnesty, to be put to death at Ter-
novo. They could not succeed in the project be-
cause Odyseus would not let them pass.
NuttEmBERG, OCT. 28.—The Grand Duke
Michael of Russia has arrived at Warsaw. The
Grand Duke Nicholas is also expected there
from Petetsburgh. The Grand Duke Constan-
tine, it is said, will again repair to the frontier
provinces to make several regulations relative to
the cantonments of the troops under his orders.
The division of the corps Sabanieff, which
lately quitted Bessarabia, has been disposed
of in Malone, at a short distance from the
former, from where it was only removed on ac-
count of want of subsistence. For some days
there were reports of new orders transmitted by
the Emperor Alexander to the Graud Duke
Constantine, and to General Wittgenstein two
days before leaving Vienna for Verona. These
orders are said to be very important, and of a
nature to make it be believed that a change has
taken place in the dispositions of Russia with
regard to the Porte.
A letter from 13rody,of the 18th of this month,
just arrived, announces that all the Ottoman
troops which were able to go from Bulgaria to
Thessaly, have received counter orders.. Thus
Chourschid Pacha has only received a reinforce-
ment of 6,000 men from the Danube, forming the
first column of the army, which was to have re-
inforced him.
DARMSTADT, OCT. 28.—The Germans about
to set out from Marseilles for the Morea amount
to nearly 500 men. The expence of sending
them will amount to 75,000 florins ; they are to
be provided with arms, ammunition, and some
field pieces. To prevent every species of em-
barrassment, they have repaired in companies of
five men to the place of their destination, and
the regulations have been so made that five indi-
viduals who set out in the morning from any
place, are replaced by five others.

STocKnoLar, OCT. 18.— It is reported that oar future
Princess Royal is expected to :.onte here in tbe month of May
next year. A ship of the line will receive her on board at
Warnemunde, and convey her hither.

CHRISTIAN A, OCT. 18.—The Storthing continues its la-
bours with great activity, and there is every reason to hope that
its sittings will be ended in the course of this month, or the
beginnit, of the next. His Majesty sees with satisfaction,
that all the represcnratives act in concert in promoting one com-
mon object—the honour and welfare of their country.
HANOVER, OCT. We learn that we shall be shortly
made acquainted with very important changes, madeby highest
authority, in the Constitution of our country. These changes
are stated to have been announced by the last courier from Lon-
don, and to be the result of the journey of his Royal Higness
the Duke of Cambridge, and of the Privy Counsellor Heppen-
stedt. There are various reports of the nature of these changes,
which, it is said, will affect the administration of public busi-
ness, and also the relative positions of some.of the departments.
The Cabinet Ministry itself will undergo, it is thought, some
alteration.

FRANKFORT OCT. 23.—AccOunts from Vienna say, that
his Majesty the FRANKFORT,
of the Two Sicilies intends to resign his
Crown, and then to fix his residence in the Austrian dominions

SPAIN.

BAYON NE, OCT. 28.—( Extract of a private letter.)—'
Royalists had lately disposed of a great number of prisoners on.
this side Urgel, and near the French frontiers. Some Spaniards,
who have taken refuge on our territory, aided by some of our
revolutionists, formed a design to liberate them ; in order to
effect which, they organized a band of about one hundred
French smugglers, who were well .-acquainted with the passes'
Happily the plot was timely discovered; four of these wretches
are in custody, and a rigorous pursuit is making for the others•
This audacious enterprise gives reason to believe that the Liber-

." The

dux had entertained the hope of exciting some commotion in the
South of France."-•_(Gaeette de France.)
OCT. 29.—The mail from Spain is not yet arrived, but we
expect it every moment.. The frontier provinces, which about
three weeks ago were in a tolerable state of tranquillity, have
assumed a very different appearance since Espinosa summoned
the troops away ; the bands of Royalists have become more
numerous and daring than ever, and pillage and assassina-
tion are the order:of the day. There is no safety for travellers,
who have been plundered in many', places. The inhabitants,
especially if they are attached to the Constitutional system,
are still more in danger, so that the Liberals, dwelling in the
small communes, have been obliged to abandon their habita-
tions, and take refuge in the garrison towns. Besides the bands
of Zabala and Barrulia, it may be said that the majority of
the peasants have turned banditti. In consequence of this
state of things, and the presence of a band which holds
the road between Burgos and Madrid, the Government
has resolved that the mails shall not pass by Tomosierra, but
by Valladolid ; and if the garrison on the road front Burgos to
Irun cannot be reinforced so as to be a match for the bands there,

we must not be suprised if the mail should be sent from Val-

ladolid to Sant Ander by way of Palencia, and embark there

for St. Sebastian or some other port. Such is the melancholy
picture of Spain, whose Government seems not to possess suf-
ficient physical or moral force to check the enemies of the sys-•

tem, who seem to increase at the approach of winter. The

- -
plan of the Royalists to insulate Madrid, is insensibly carrying

„
into execution in the North East Provinces, while the bands

on the frontiers of Gallicia are increasing, and intercept the

.communication with that Province. As for New Castile: it is

notorious that no one can venture out of the capital without
risking to be plundered by the Guerillas ; that pis, the poor

Spaniards in those countries threaten to take arms, not to de-
fend the cause of the King, for that would be stating a false-
hood ; but to plunder the rich. The Constitution is the pre-

text. Andalusia and Gallicia still remain steady, but a re-
verse in Catalonia might induce them to revolt, and therefore
we see Mina act with the greatest caution, avoiding any general
action, and remaining in the fortresses, where he continues to
reinforce himself. The Ministry is certainly in a most critical
situation, having to combat, with an insufficient force, so many
internal enemies, as well secret as open and declared ; to
struggle With the fatal effects which this state of things pro-
duces on the minds of the people ; with the total disorganiza-
tion of all the branches of the Administration ; without finan-
cial resources, but disadvantageous loans with some French
houses; and, lastly, it has to cope with foreign influence,
and the efforts of the Royalists, who were more determined
than ever to overcome all obstacles to restore the Throne to its
legitimate power. We leave you to judge what will be the re-
sult of this state of things, which the peaceable Spaniards
would willingly see calmed even with the aid of a foreign
army." We are of opinion that the above statements, which
we have taken from the correspondence of a very respect-
able person at Trun, are rather - too highly coloured, and that
the fear of the inhabitants of an invasion of Quesada has con-
tributed to make them view things in so unfavourable a light,
though it cannot be denied that the situation of Navarre and the
three provinces is very critical.

Hay:past Five, P. sr.—No mail yet nor any news from the
country beyond Irun and Urdatz, so that any statement we
might make would rest on no solid 'foundation. •Pampeluna
was tranquil on the 24th.-:—(Bayo7zne Papers.)

The Echo du Midi of the 30th October says—". We have
received Urgel Gazettes to the 25th October. The following

are extracts :

" Don Pablos :Hirailles has communicated to the Regency
the following intelligence
" A shot fired from the fort of Castelfollit has wounded Gen.
Torrijos; he died in consequence on his arrival at Cerbera•
The enemy having attempted to carry the fort, were repulsed
with considerable loss. A battery which he had constructed
and mounted with artillery, to reduce the fort, was totally de-
stroyed. The enemy have in consequence lost all hope of get-
ting possession of the place.

acquires strength. The most distinguished Liberals have,
it is reported, been arrested, anti thrown into Fort Saint
