Some of thenvit i$ said, ivereitaken prisoners,
and the rest escaped to the Boulevard of the
Temple, where: they- set 'up the cry? not only of
" Vive Manuel," but' of " Success to 'the Spa-
niards." „The.,Serjeant of theXationsil Guard,
who with his party refused to obey the rash or.
der to turn M.-Manuel out °Utile 'Chamber, is a
lace-manufacturer of the name of Mercier, and
has become eminently popular. Many Deputies.
of the Opposition called at his house to thank ,
him for the firmness and decision which he dis-
played on that occasion, and as . the. National
Guard in general is known to be actuated by the
same spirit, no measures have been taken,
either bye the majority of the Chamber, or
by the Government, to call him to account
for his conduct, lest offence should be given
to the whole Body to whom it had been
originally intended, to entrust the police of the
capital during the war with Spain. .A precedent
is' thus established which, if the violent sway of
the Ultras is not promptly revoked, will probably
not long remain solitary and the National
Guard of Paris, which in: point of numbers and
discipline composes a strong and efficient army,
must from this moment become an object of

jealousy to the Government, and a powerful
check to the establishment of arbitrary despotism.

. We have received Bayonne Papers to the 28th
nit.; the Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday,
the 6-thand 7th inst. have also reached us by ex-
press. All accounts as yet concur in represent-
ing war to be inevitable. The faction who hold
the reins of power in France are plunging into
the conflict at all hazards, and Spain seems re-
solutely determined to meet the shock, and to
risk every vicissitude and danger sooner than
sacrifice an atom of her liberty, or an article of
tier free Constitution. Fifty Guerilla Chiefs are
stated to have offered in this trying hour their
services to Spain, and two hundred thousand men
are expected to be in arms and organized under
their orders, ready, before another eventful
month passes, to net in that warfare best suited
to the country, and to rush ow the invader from
every pass and glen. The inhabitants of Sara-
gossa, that city so remarkable for itr immor-
tal defence, with its national militia, amount-
ing to three thousand men, have sworn to
bury themselves under the ruins of their city
and reduce it to ashess, sooner than see their
Constitution altered, or their liberties torn from
them by a foreign army. The traitor, Quesada,
had arrived at Bayonne, where a full council was
held of all the Serviles and their leaders then con-
grlated in that neighbourhood. Priests,outlaws,
monks, and smuglers, were all assembled and con-
federated together, aallured by the gold of France,
ten millions of francs were scattered by the fife.
brand agitators of the Pavilion Mersa'', and placed
at the disposal of Quesada ; and this was the mer-
cenary standard around which the' Spanish traitors
were collected. The. Trappist was as yet with-
out employment; the worst outlaws shrunk
at the idea of serving under the dark stand-
, and of this ferocious fanatic. Ile was wait-
ing on the extreme frontier like a muzzled
bloodhound, looking for the order from Que.
sada to rush on Arragon again, the former
scene of spoliation and murder. There is some-
thing appallingly horrible in a cowled fanatic of
this sort deserting his melancholy cloister, where
human communion was never held, and even °the
silent whisper was unknown, to raise 'the stand-
ard of bigotry and the bloody Inquisition, and
spread carnage and desolation in the name of an
Almighty God.

[MORNING HERALD.]
Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday have
been received since our last. There was still
considerable agitation in,Paris, from the expul-
sion of M. Manuel. There were some groups
on the Boulevards in the course of the day ; and,
after night-fall on Thursday, but they merely
shouted " Vivo Manuel !" committed no excess,
and were easily dispersed by patroles of cavalry
and infuntry,,which paraded the streets. The Li-
beral party appear to have seceded from the
Chamber—their benches have been unoccupied
since the coup d'olut, which has made such
noise. It is probable that in France their se-
cession will embarrass and alarm the Ministry
and the Ultra Party much more than the most
energetic opposition of a minority in the Cham-
ber. There can be no doubt, that the left and
left centre, -which the expulsion of Manuel has
made one , compact party, ,will bold meet-
ings and concert means to overthrow the
.Ultra domination—if they should indeed con-
fine themselves •to a mere change of Administra-
tion. At no period since the restoration has
there been so strong a party marshalled against
the-Govertneut—not only the Constitutionalists
and Buonapartists, or those who rose under the
imperial Government, but even that party of
Senators ("Poignee de Sentdeurs," as Buonaparte
called them), who, with Talleyrand at their
head, prepared and effected the transaction of the
restoration, are at present in open hostility to the
Court. In tbe Chamber of Deputies there has been
nothing worth notice. The law for re-embodying
disbanded soldiers was passed with scarcely any
opposition—the Members of the left and left
centre being absent, with the exception of some
very few who answered to their names when
called, but declined speaking. Some of the
Ultras disburdened themselves of speeches,
though wholly uncalled for, the measure
being unopposed. One of thorn, .M. Clause)
de Cossergues, "cried out that the Spaniards
are in danger of being uncetholicised by
the revolution—no doubt, because the. reformed
Government has withheld from the. Pope the
millions of .hard gold which his Holiness wrung
from,the-Spanish peasantry, as a return for the
favour of his Lpermitting them to contract mar-
riage and have their children baptised. 'Now it
appears. they. presume to do so without asking his
leave. General Donadieu, a personage of the
Ultra party, who was quite unknown. in the
campaigning times, of France, but .who makes
more noise than ten since the field of politics has
opened to him, made some observations relating
chiefly to, himself,. and to calumnies that were
circulated against him—but in so enigmatical
