Madrid journals of the 3d have arrived.
The cause of the retirement of General CONCHA
from the command in Catalonia is said to be the dis-
gust which he experienced on discovering how com-
pletely he had been misled by the Ministry as to the
state of the province and the strength of the Carlist
forces. His successor, VILLALONGA is, it is said,
about to adopt a hazardous experiment : believing that
tbe.Catalans refuse to aid the QUEEN'S troops because
they are gainers by the war, he is about to levy con-
tributions for the support of the war on the inhabit-
ants of the province, and to destroy villages, &c., as
he did in the Maestrazgo. The effect of such a
course will be to force the Catalans to rise en masse
and join the Carlists, a course which they are very
well inclined to pursue even without such provocation.
Solsona is blockaded by the Carlists.
The Gaceta contains the summary of a dispatch
from General CONCHA, dated Vich, 26th ult., which
says that the Carlists, under CAnRERA, ESTARTUS, and
other chiefs, attacked Ripoll on the night of the 24th,
and succeeded in entering for a moment, but were
repelled by the garrison, with the loss of several
killed and wounded. _ _ _

The Journal du Peuple of Bayonne, of the sth
instant, quotes a letter from Burgos of the 2d, stating
that on that day 54 wounded, including a commander
of the QUEEN'S troops, had arrived in that city.
They brought with them four Carlist prisoners, one of
whom, desperately wounded, expired shortly after
his admission into the hospital. The three others
were placed in capilla, and were to be shot on the
following morning. Those men were wounded in an
engagement which took place in the neighbourhood
of Lerma, between the Queen's troops and a new
Carlist chief, named EL TAMBOR•
