The Marshal returned to Gerona yesterday, and Mina is at
Olot. We have not yet any details of his march, nor what
may have been the movements of (lan. I)onnadieu. At the same
time that Mina published the above Proclamation, Gen. I'.
Villa Carnpa, commanding the Army of Reserve, published at
taeville, on the 12th of May, another Problamation, announcing
equally decisive and rigorous measures.
ht Amelia; de rouloor of the tith has the following part',
4.uutars of the events in Catalonia :-»
*c Lta Se u 4 Jit m arrived in our walls yesterday
afternoon, about four o'clock. His army, which is corn-
paitod of the regiments of Laredo, Gourona, Tarragona, Bar.
4.elerat, suit four companies of sappers, form a total of 3,000
infantry, and 100 cavalry, 50 belonging to the regiment of
Ow Prince, and 50 to that of the Infanta. These troops ar.
rivtui in the most forlorn state, the soldiers fainted for want
of food.

41 in the night of the 29th, twelve loads of biscuits had
looi taken, from the posts, unit conveyed to Fournes, where
Mina remained till ten o'olock on the morninot the 31st.—
His retreat by Bogus, Ciosol, Touchin, and Fournes, has
besil the occasion of new arrdsts and new fusillades. We
are assured that eleven individuals, moat of whom belonged
ur lire village of Gosol, were arrested and shot before reaching
Yoh rii es. ,
" The Royalist troops are approaching us; they are not very
jr a 0 It is affirmed, however, that a part of the corps of
Mrtron d'grolea has gone by forced marches towards Soliona,
where 400 men of the garrison of Cerdona heti arrived ; anti had
already burnt the College of St. I)ominich, the Convent of the
Capuchins, and a house out of the town.
Mina, not to diminish the provisions in the forts, has given
up to his soldiers those of the inhabitants. A poor woman, who
Minted to give a grenadier the food she had reserved for her
children, received a blow with a sabre. Several persons, even
Constitutionalists, have, in consequence, left their homes, and
. taken refuge in Andorra.
" It is not to be supposed that Mina would throw himself
into the Paillaa.
" Romagosa arrived yeaterda at Delon, with 500 men.—
lie occupies that post with 800 men. It is not come to our
linowledge that he has yet advanced."

: The news of the arrival of the Constitutional General Mango
in Upper Catalonia, with 6,000 men, seems to be confirmed by
letters from several quarters : they add, that on thin occasion
a great council was held at the head-quarters of the 4th corps,
at Cardeden, at which several Generals attended. •
Nothing new from Figueiras. The division Damns remains
in the L'Anyouratian, and closely obierves the besieged. It
Is 'said our troom;hava entered Leon. It is asserted that, ac-
cording to letters received to-day at Paris, Gen. llallasteros had
arrived before Saragossa with fotees very superier to the garri-
son that our army has left in it. It in positively known, by
letters of the 25th May, that 'there was moth discontent among
the inhabitants of that city, who had shewn more attachment
to the Constitutional system, and on whom the new authorities
had imposed a contribution of 100,000 hard piastres.
It is reported that Count Abisbal is to leave Spain, and come
to France.

A letter from Madrid, of the 31st of May, published in the
Journal of Toulouse, says--
"Count Molitor's head-quarters were still at Fraga on the
26th of May. An attempt of the 4th of the line on the fortress of
hlonzon had failed. The grenadiers of that regiment mounted
the scaling-ladders with great resolution and courage, but suc-
cess did not crown their valour. A sapper and some men were
wounded. These brave men wait with impatience for an order
to renew the attack.

MADRID, JUNE I.—On account of the absence of Messrs.
Vargas, Laguna, and Garcia de la Torres, the Regency had
named to replace them, ad interim, M. Victor flamianzaiz,
Minister of btate, and M. Salaza, Minister of Grace attdylustice.
Notwithstanding the care taken by the authorities to preserve
tranquillity in the capital, some disorders still take place here.
Yesterday the furniture of a liberal was burnt in the street
Toledo ; and in the afternoon a considerable group collected at
the gate called the Sun Gate, exclaiming against the tradesmen
and merchants, whom they accused of having furnished funds
to have the people massacred. •
The consequence is, that .the emigration becomes consider-
able ever since the entry of the French ; above 400 persons
are enumerated who have left the city, fearing private yen-.
geance.
Count Amarante is still in the province of Salamanca, at the
head of 4,000 or 4,000 men; it is not believed that this corps
mill increase, or that it tan long remain at this point.
Ballasteros was on the 24th of May at Jaliba, extending his
line as far as Valencii. It is said he has from 8,000 to, 10,000
men ; he has imposed on the provinces a contribution of six
millions of reale. _

The journals of Seville and all the provinces not occupied by
the French are prohibited at Madrid.
tut's, Ju NE 6.—We have nothing very new in our Pro•
vinces. It is still affirmed that part of the troops.f the Faith,
before Pampeluna, have abandoned their General. Jauregny
is at Vigo, ill from the suppuration of a wound which he re•,
ceived in the last war; on this account, the Constitutionil troops,
under his command, said to be seven or eight thousand men,
have not made any movement.
The Biscayans and Navarrese, to whom the restoration of
their ancient privileges was promised, see with pain that the
Custom-house officers still remain on the frontier.

owr, 7.—The Archduchess Maria-Louisa of
Parma arrived ut Inspruck on the ht on her way to Vienna.
The public attention is at this moment fixed on Wurtemburg,
on account of the recta of the Ministers of Prussia, Austria,
and Russia, who resided at Stutgard. It affirmed that the
three great Powers are dissatisfied with certain acts of the Go-
vernment of Wurtemburg, which do not harmonise with the
system of the Holy Alliance, or with the kind of opposition
which it manifested by its Minister in the German Diet, on the
communication made to that assembly, of the resolutions
adopted at the Congress of Verona. Nevertheless, nothing
very serious can arise from this, for it would be necessary to
overturn the whole confederation, if one of the members was
attacked singly.
The following is the text of a Letter, addressed by the Em.
peror Alexander to General Benkendorfi; his Minister, to the
King of Wurtemburg
" Desiring to give'you marks of our particular favour, for
the exact accomplishment., in perfect conformity with our will,
of the last mission with which you have been entrusted during
your residence at the Court'ot' Wurtemburg, we appoint you
Knight of the Order of St. Anne, of the first class. Weenier
you to wear the accompanying insignia of that order, in a man.
ner conformable to the regulation.-1 am, your well affected,
" ALEXANDER."
It now remains to be seen what was the nature of the mis.
sion of the Russian Envoy to the Cabinet of Stutgard, which
he seems to have executed to the satisfaction of his Sovereign.
On the other hand, we give the text of the resolution of the
German Diet on the 10th of May, which suppresses a ‘Vu nem.
berg journal.
``l. The German Observer, published at Stutgard, is sup-
pressed by the German Diet, by virtue of the authority con.
ferred on that assembly by the resolution of 20th September,
11119 ; and the continuation of that jaurnal is wholly prohibited.
" 2. The Government of Wurtcmberg shall be requested,
through its Minister as the Diet, to cause this resolution to be
executed.
" S. This resolution shall be communicated to all the other

Members of the German Confederation, by their legations,
and they &hall, at the same time, be requested to forbid the
German Observer from continuing to appear in those parts of
their dominions which form a part of the Confederation. The
responsible Editor of that paper, M.S. 0. Lieschlng, is further
prohibited from editing any other periodical paper of a political
nature, during► the space of five years.
"4. The present resolution shall be communicated in an ex-
tract from the Protocol, to the Central Committee of Inquiry
at Mayence ; and an observation shall be added, that the Diet
considers the grievances laid before the Diet, by the letter of
the President of the Committee, of 23d March, this year, as
being redressed by the present resolution."
[PROM A PRIVATE LETTER.]
" NUREJIBERG. JUNE 7.—We learn that an Extraordi-
nary Council of Ministers has been held at Munich, in conse-
quence of a communication of the highest importance, made by
the Envoy of Wurtemberg, in the name of his Sovereign. Ux-
traordinary Couriers were dispatched at the same time to
Vienna and Berlin.

" Letters from St. Petershurgh, written to persons of conse-
quence at Vienna, say that the 'Emperor Alexander had re-
solved to consent, without any restriction, to all the demands
made in the last note of the Reis Effendi, transmitted by Lord
Strangford to Petersburgh. The result of this would be, that
besides the restoration of the fortresses in Asia by Russia to
the Porte, the latter power would be free to act as it pleased
in any thing relative to Moldavia and Wallachia, notwithstand.
ing the stipulations of the treaties, especially that of Bucharest.
These letters add, that nothing more was expected at St. Peters-
burgh than the consent of the Sultan to send a Russian Am-
bassador to Constantinople. These news, though credited at
Vienna, need confirmation. Their great importance makes it
necessary to wait for the publication of some official document
by the Russian Cabinet.'
OuxasA, MAY 17.—Privnte letters from St. Petersburgh,
which certainly need confirmation, though they came from good
authority, say that the followingt, circumstance caused the dis.
missal of Messrs. Wolkonsky, Menzikoff, and Jakrefsky. The
Emperor, during the Congress at Vienna, wrote to General
Yemioloff, commanding the Russian army in the Caucasus,
desiring him to state whether any disadvantage would result to
Russia, by ceding to the Port the frontier fortress of Asia which
the Porte continued to claim.
The General replied to the Emperor that, if he consulted
the Military Archives of the Empire, he would see how much
blood the conquest of those fortresses had cost, and that the
safety and tranquillity of the Asiatic frontiers depended on the
possession of them, since they checked whole tribes, and hin-
dered them from making incursions into the Russian pro-
vinces ; that, consequently, if the Emperor bad ordered to re.
storatiun of those fortresses, he begged his Majesty would
spare him the execution of the order, for he would rather give
in his resignation.
The Emperor then ordered Prince Wolkonsky to give his
opinion, who declared, as well as Messrs. Menzikoff and Jak.
resky, that they could do no better than sign the opinion of
their companion in arms, which was their own, and they would
rather offer their resignation than advise a measure to disad-
vantageous to the Russian Empire. We give this news with.
out warranting it ; but it seems probable,
.because, at the same
time when it is affirmed that the restoration of the fortresses
was resolved on, the Russian Ambassador in Persia was recal-
led.--( illipburer Gazette.)
