DEFECTION OF GEN. BALLASTEROS.

EXPRESS PROM PARIS.

We are sorry to communigate to our tteaders
the intelligence that BALLASTEROS, imitating the
conduct of A imam. and itiORILLO, has abandoned:,
the cause of his country, and has acknowledged
the Regency of Madrid ! The successive trea-
chery of tbrec: of the principal: Spanish Coni,
manders of vairse explains Ow facltity With which
the Frencl,l have marched throligh every part
of SPaio except Catalonia, where the fidelity and
valoor of the iilnstriousMi A. and his Lieutenant-
Gexierals have proved an over-niatch for the
ti:ilitaryidence and superior force of the enernli.s
of their country. .if the Constitutional Go-
vernment must fall under the repeated blows
inflicted upon it by the treason of its
mi-
litary Commanders, it must be et last acknow-
ledged that its misfortunes Itre not nttributable'
to the want of due Preparation for the conflict
(as has been so often alleged), but to the base
desertion of their duty and their oaths by some
of those to whom the exectition of the measures
prepared by the Government was unfortunately
intrusted. The following is the official annuncia-
tion of this new and
.almost overwhelming disaster
to the cause of the Constitutionalists.

" PARIS, Ata. 9.

4' TELEGRAPHIC DISPATCH.

" 'Telegraphic Dispatch, dated from the
Ifead-Quarters at, Carolina,. the 6th of August,
announces that BALLASTEKOS has given hi his
submission, and acknowledged the Regency."
The Paris Papers of Sunday, which bring the
foregoing Telegraphic Dispatch, do not contain
any other news of importance.

The following articles are extracted from the
Madrid Gazetto Extraordinws, of Sunday the 3d

instant :

" MADRID, Aua. 3.—(OrrIcIAL AitTfctr.)

" The Government has received information
that the valuable health of their Majesties and
their Royal Highnesses continued unchanged
during the 28th and 29th of last month: .

" Two. of the nine gun-boats preparing at
Puerto de Santa Maria ,were got out of the port
on the 28th, and pleasures are taking to forward
the remaining seven with all expedition.
" The news of the, journey to that quarter,
undertaken by the Duke d'Angoulerne, has
caused great exultation at Puerto de Santa
Maria."

The Goterm-tient has also received the follow
ing official dispatch, which is here inserted lite
rally, for the satisfaction of the public :--

CAPTAINCY-GENERAL OF THE KINGDOM AND
COAST 01' GRANADA.

" Most Excellent Senor t—Yesterday at 3 in the afternoon,
his Most Christian Majesty's troops, under the command of
Camp Marshal the 13aroti de OrdonO, took possession of this
capital,
it having that moment been abandoned by thdse call.
ing themselves Constitutionalists. in the morning of that day,
Gen. Don Josef de Zayas marched off with an army, in name,
consisting of a deluge of officers, but only 1100 cavalry and
1,60 infantry—tt small number indeed, and yet sufficient to
harass the unfortunate towns which are incapable of defence. I

am confident, however, considering the public spirit in favour
of his Majesty, that this force is not likely to be kept together.
In consequenee of the Arrangements made by the General com-
manding his !host Christian Majesty's troops, I have taken
upon myself' the command of the captaincy of this kirgdoni

and coast; and I yesterday restoied the Ayuntamiento, the
Chancery, and other authentic?, as advised by the said French
commanding General, sing directed by. the Regency.

" I have: this. day established a subsistence junta, composed
Ofpersons decided for the Royal authority, that" they may pro.-
ceed fn the collection 'of provisions, and take'care that the allied
troops be . properly supplied, as the commanding pelletal hal
directed ; what the said troops' onsume being paid for. • ,
" '('he officers and company of the provincial regiment of
Guadix, left here by Gen. Zuyas to presaye public tranquillity,
did notwish to follow their cavalry, and made an offer to serve
his Majesty, which was accepted by the General. -
« Doti Rafael del Barrio, not being dispOsed to follOw the
rebel army, threw up his commission, and remained. here.—
Severci other chiefs and officers of the. same corps have followed
his example.
" The King's Lieutenant bas been restored ad interim, be=
cause he was dismissed In the year .1320 for his decided attach-
meta and fidelity to Lis Sovereign.
" I hate taken measures for forming two depots, in which
(ndividtials belonging to the Conititutional armies will be col-
lected t and I shall report their number to your Excellency by
the next couner. •

" All the persons belonging to the military finance depart-
inent of the district have remained, and have applied to me to
be employed, as they had not followed the army..

" The number of deserters arriving from the armies of Zayas
and Ballasteros is considerable. The latter sustained a defer
in the plains of Iliontejicar, in consequence of which 8 officers,
2 cadeti, and 40 privatet; all Cavalry badly wounded, lave been
brought in here prisoners.

" As soon as. the allied army shall resume its opefationt, that
Which Zayas cotnmands will vanish, if it be not already dis-
persed in consequence of the effervescence in the territory into
which it is marching ; fot, acenraing to the direction taken, it
has passed the Alpujarra. This it all the information I have
at present to communicate your Excellency, &c.

We have in our Weceding cohimns given an
extnict from the Moniteur of Saturday (not re-
ceived yesterday by our express), and some fur-
ther extracts from the Paris Papers of the same
date, and also from the last arrival of Dutch
Papers.—The article from the Moniteur contains
the annunciation (so important at the presettt
moment), that an ilide-de:Camp of the Duke
d'ANGOULEME who preceded his Royal High-
ness from Madrid, bad proceeded direct for
Cadiz !

A Oanders T,fail bas arrived, but it brings no
news of any intetest.

Corfu the 18th June, front Malta the 28th, and
Gibraltar the 9.3 d July, and was off Cadiz the
‘24th, but not 11 a..owed to go in, it being blockaded

an attack on the Constitutionalists at San Roque,
and drove them: out ; they afterwards made an

repulsed by the latter, and returned to San

frequently before rejected. At midnight General Vego and

eb4whiinti
t had
other 'principal officers arrived in a steam-packet from Co-
runna. My intercourse with General Morino had been ap-
proved by all at Corunna. Colonel Robinson was dispatch.
ed with my last letter to General Morino. General Quiroga
came in a steam-paeket, going via England to Cadiz.—
General Nivella had been left Governor of Corttnna, and Ge.
neral Romai, being superseded by General Vego, is about to
sail in a steam-packet for Cadii via England ; a more amiable
man, and better Spaniard never served his country ; but titan
a variety of circumstances (in no degree imputing censure to
him) General Vego is now more likely to animate to general
exertion. It appears that the general and principal officers left
in Corunna had resolved to hold out as long as possible, but
they relied on relief, in one shape or other, being Worded in
time to prevent a surrreuder. The French had established some
guns in battery, and the arrival of the French frigate secured
the communications between Ferrol and Bestangoa. A great
many inhabitants had left Corunna. The factious still retained
Tuy, and obtained a few days since some advantage over
a small detachment of Bayonne militia.—The pieces of
cannon, forty men, and an engineer, were sent to Bayonne yes-
terday evening.—lt is ever to be lamented this fortress had
not long since been put into a state of defence;_ it might
have been made a place of very great strength at little
charge; and, one engineer reports, could have been rendered an
island by a few days labour of 300 men.—Colonel Robinson re-
turned at midnight. He bad seen Gen. Morino, and brought
back an answer. Gen. Morrille seemed to require the surrender
of Vigo, but appeared to be no longer master of his dint will. He,
however, asserted, that he never had, and never would, obey the
Regency of Madrid, notwithstanding the French statements and
proziamationa. Ile added, that he had, at one time, thought of
giving himself up to the French ea a prisoner, which Col. Ro-
binson regretted, for his own sake, he had not done. CoMmu-
nication through my correspondence has now terminated ; but
still an intercourse is preserved through other channels, which
will probably lead to sonic private arrangement : bur whilst
Morale's troops are evidently eager for an adjustment, which may
eittricate them from their present painful state of hostility to
their own countrymen, the troops of General Palarea are very
animated, and apparently resolute, sti as to render concili-
ation more difficult; hut the force is not sufficient to check
the enemy in front, and carry aid to Corunna, which is the most
important of all objects in Galicia; and therefore every measure
which tends to the attainment of that object is imperative upon
the authorities. Three hundred French cavalry and fire hun-
dred infantry had reached Ponte Vedra yesterday more were
expected, arid General Morillo's troops- have Ceen collect.
lag barks in the neighbourhood of Congos, in the bay of
Congos, to menace, as it is presumed, a disembarkation be-
tweeti Bayonne and Vigo, but 100 more men will be sent to
Bayonne this day, and General Vego has directed the French
detachment to enter there, as the peasantry here manifested
much ili-will at their movement into the interior, and thus
their safety might be compromised. It is probable the greater
part will disperse and pls..; into Portugal. General Vego
is pursuing his measures with the same skill, zeal, and
activity which he heretofore displayed at Corunna.--Sir
John Doyle wilt sail this day : he brought in his steam
amid several French who were wounded, and who, if the
place had been taken, must have !Welted their lives. He
takes them. to England .under the same imperative circum-
stances, and perhaps the Conimittee will think that the expense
of their transport ought not to full on Sir John Doyle,
whateVer may be the generosity of his disposition. Should j
untoward circumstances render the evacuation of Galicia
necessary, it is my intention, after a due consideration of
all circumstances, to go with such persons as have beer.
