Not one officer, not a single soldier of General

a, pretty large number ef, his men, among • them
two entire squadrons those of Nettie:Ohl and

the 11th.
" During this time the mast)] es ordered by

the half of his..,tronpSt. with him ; however, he
caused an attack to be made on ail points, and in.
few instants the town was in our power. The

direction of Mancha Real ; but soon the 4th

sudden appeafroice caused, and, without suffering
hims.elf to be, delayed by the fire of the Posts, 'he
made his regiment proceed along' one of the ex-

it dispersed, flying in all directions, while Colimel

ed the destruction of a corps composed of the re-
volutionists who were the most implicated and

the most deternittieu, nas cost the enemy 613
prisoners, among whom are one General, six Co-

.60 killed and Wounded,

The Constiattionalists give the following account of their
short and bloody enternrise :---." The troops consisted of the
Ist and 2d battalions of Catalonis, the battalion of the Consti.
tution, the foreign battalion, and a squadron of 'encore.. In
the lst battalion were all the soldiers who had left the hospi.
tal, and did not belong to the garrison of Barcelona. trite
fateigh battalion was. formed of !'Tench and Piedmontese, and
other Italian refugees, and the tiquidron of lancers was almost
wholly foreigners.
"'They landed on the 10th between Montgut and Mastior,
with the exception of the lancers, of whotn only thirty-two
were Landed, the weather having changed, and the wind become
contrary-. It was commanded by Don Fernandez; Constitu.
tional Governor of Carclotta. Each soldier had four packets of
cartridgee, end there were 2,000 cartridges in reserve. In thbt
state they began their march for .Upper Catalonia, passing by
2.llonmelo, Sanseloni, Itetlai Moullen and Olot. On the l.ith,
at two o7eioet: in the afternoon, the, met, the French troops,
occupying the village of 'dada and the neighbourhood. The
Freneharoaps left their positions and retreated .towarde Liars.
The Constitutionalists say they made somipristmers, among
whom are some .ollicers. ' •" On the 111th .they, moved towattis Idlers, and after several

they surrendered to Gentral.Datuas. it was agreed, that the
lives of the French who fought in, their mite should be spared,
and that all the officers should keep their swords."

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY; OCTOBER 'l, 1823.

We have received the Paris Papers of Sunday,
Bayonne Papers to the 25th ult. -and German
Papers to the .‘2oth, extracts from which will' be
found in our preceding columns. A Telegraphic
Dispatch announces the capitulation of St. Se-
bastian on the .27th. The garrison, however,
were not to give up the possession either of the
town or citadel till the 3d of October, so that,
the capitulation would seem to be conditional,
and its execution to..be dependent on some
contingency •w II the French have not
yet thought proper to explain. In . a long
Bulletin, Count Guir.t.tmixoT has at length
given 'Rime details 'of the brilli,antterbmuitnautenifloiri:
tunate enterprise of Iticao, which
the defeat of his little arm., and in his own cap.
tivity.. His troops appear to have fought with
the. utmost bravery against a superior French
force, and to have maintained with •-unexampled
steadiness, on the 1:lth ult., a retreating conflict
of fourteen hours, at the conclusion of which,
though their loss amounted to five. hundred then,
their columns were unbroken. Notwithstanding
the fatigue of his soldier, Itrrtr.a availed himself
of the night to make a masterly movement, and
succeeded in reachibg and occupying the. village
of iodar, from whence it would have been in his
power either to attempt ajnitction with a part of
HA u,Arrtnok's army tuntoned about Übeda,
to efect,his retreat to the Sierra Morena, or to
Carthagena, by the mountains of Swan. ItrEnO
had gained this position with his 2,000 faithful
fUlloWers, at eleven in the forenoon of the 14th ;
but in the very moment of that , apparent secu.
rity which they had so nobly earned, before they
had enjoyed any repose after the excessive fa-
tignes of the preceding day and night, freSh corps
of the French, Which had been 'milled forward
from another quarter by LieUt.-General 'FOIBSAC
LAToun, suddenly and unexpectedly made its
appearance, advancing rapidly :to the attack.
The: ill-fated ConStitutionalists • hastily formed

themselves into two squares; but, worn down
by fatigue, dispirited by the appearance or a new
enemy, and convinced, as they must have been by
that event, that they were surrounded on all sides,
it is not matter of surprise that the first square
was broken by the charge of the French cavalry,
and that the second took to flight. Even then,

wtvever,RlEGo'S force does not seem to have been
utterly destroyed ; and though the French allege
that it is dispersed in the mountaini, the fugitives
will probably form a guerilla, which may still bp

of some service to their unfortunate country. It
is remarkable, that in all this affair with RIEno,
neither BALL.tsrEnns nor any part of his troops
appear to have acted against him. A degree of

mYsterY still hangs over the transaction, which
we have no means of elucidating..
