FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

`PARIS PAPERS Or TUESDAY.
These Papers state, in most positive terms,
that a telegraphic dispatch has brought intelli-
gence to Paris of the army of the Duke
-D'A.Nuourtnic being in full march on the Ebro.
They assert, that on Sunday morning, at five
o'clock, mass was celebrated along the whole
line, and that immediately after the army was
in motion, and the passage of the Bidassoa was
effected the same. day..
The Journal des Daas, however, states, that
the army did net cross the Bidassoa till Mon-
-day, the 7th. The same paper contradicts the
report which had been published in the French
Journals of the preceding day, of the Duke de
13elluno's return to Paris. The journal des &bats
states, that the Marshal was to cross the Bidaasoa,
in order to assist the entry of the French troops
into Spain ; then to re-enter France, in order to
inspect the corps collected at Perpignan ; then
to return to Purls, to resume the portfolio of the
"War-office; but'that he would not return before
a fortnight or three weeks.
The same paper contains the Order of the Day,
issued by the Duke d'ArquouLtsiE on the 3d
of April. It is as follows :
" APIY OF THI] PYRENEES.
44 la!tD 1:41. O% TILE DAY..
Sommits—The confidence of the King has placed me at
your head in order to fulfil the noblest of missions. It Is not
the spirit of conquest which has made us take up arms—a more
generous motive animates us : we are going to replace a King
on his throne, to reconcile his people with him, and to re-esta-
blish in a neighbouring country, which is a prey to anarchy,
the order necessary to the happiness and safety of the two king-
doms.
" Soldiers—You will respect, and cause to be respected, re..
ligion, laws, and property; and you will render easy the accom-
plishment of the duty which is imposed on me—of maintaining
the most rigid discipline.
" Head-quarters, Bayonne, April 3. "LOUIS ANTOINE.
(Countersigned by) " Count GUILLEMINOT."
The Constitution rid and Courier Froncais of
'Tuesday contain Spanish news up to the Ist of
April inclusive. The following are extracts :

( From the Courier Francais. )
". We have received the Spanish Journals of the 30th and
31st of March ; they contain some reports of' Generals Mine
and Eallasteros, who are following up their successes against
the enemies of the Constitution. The King set off from
Valdepegnas, on the 26th in the morning, and arrived the
same day at El Viso, where he lodged in the ancient palace
of the Marquis 'tie Santa Cruz, which was prepared for his
reception. Every where the inhabitants displayed the warmest
enthusiasm for the Constitution. The King Was to continue
his journey on the 27th, and to sleep at Carolina. Thus
the passage of the Sierra Morena is achieved, and the King
has entered Andalusia. The Espeetador of the 31st announces
that it has published its last number at Madrid, and that its
next number will he dated Seville. The most perfect tranquil-
lity prevails at Madrid. The Count d'Abisbal has published a
dispatch, announcing that a column of the troops of Bessieres
has been completely defeated."
" The Consatutionnel states, from a Spanish paper of April
1, that the King was to have slept the preceding evening at
Baylem. The journey benefits his health and that of the
-Queen. Their Majesties were greatly affected with the marks
of attachment which were every where shown them on their
road. Every where they passed through the midst of patriotic
acclamations."
rmi the French papers, with the exception of the Moniteur
publish the proclamation of the Duke d'Angoulente, which ap-
pe.ared in The Sun yesterday. The Journal des IJebats states
that it is printed both in French and Spanish].

PARIS PAPERS OF MONDAY.

PARIS, APRII. 7.—The King announced yes.
terday, before Mass, that the French army was
to pass the Bidassoa that day. It is added, that
the actual intelligence of that event reached
Paris in the course of the day, by the new line
of telegraphs established on the line of Bayonne
and Bordeaux.
M. de Luslgnun, Aide-de-Camp of his Excel-
lency the Duke de Belluno, arrived on Saturday
'in Paris.
ills Excellency the Duke of Belluno,Minister
of War, arrived yesterday (Sunday) in Paris, at
half-past four o'clock, with General Cdetlosquet.
Letters from Perpignan of the 29th March
state, that General La Roche Airnou has taken
the command of one of the brigades of the 4th
Corps, and that General Dotmadieu, who was
to command a division of the Army, was expected
every moment. Baron d'Eroles, who has moved
his head-quarters to St. Esteve, will have under
him nearly 10,000 Catalonians. 1 t was rumoured
on the frontier of Catalonia, that Ferdinand had
been liberated. This report, which, unfortunately,
was not true, was received and propagated with
en enthusiasm which belied all that the Revolu-
tionists on both sides of the Pyrenees have cir-
culated respecting the spirit of the Spanish qation.
tFrom the Gaxette de Prance.]
Upon his arrival at Bayonne his Excellency
the Marshal Duke tie Bynum) ascertained the
utter falsehood of all the malevolent reports
which had been circulated respecting the situa-
tion of the army. Ills Excellency found every
thing in so satisfactory a state, and the troops
animated with so good a disposition, that he
judged it unnecessary to remain any longer with
the army, and that it was of much more import•
ance for the interests of the State that he should
return and resue the portefeuille of Minister of
War. His Excem
llency is expected every moment
at Paris.
A distinguished personage who quitted Madrid
on the 29th of March, in the evening, and who
arrived vesterday oat` aris, states, that from the
capital of Spain t es French frontiers, he did
not see a single corps of Constitutional troops
capable of opposing any resistance ; but that, on

the contrary, he had encountered numerous
Royalist Guerillas. The general appearance of
the country and the temper of the public mind
convinced hint that the French army would not
encounter any obstacle. The same individual
was of opinion that Bessieres, with his force
alone, would obtain possession of Madrid, and
that at the present moment the Spanish capital
was probably in his hands.

NUREMBERG, MARCIL 31.—1 t is confirmed that
Constantinople has been set on fire, and it is said that the num.
ber of houses burnt down amounts to between 30 and 40,000.
The greatest mischief is the destruction of the arsenal, be-
cause the Porte is deprived of every means necessary to fit out
naval armaments.

FRIBOURG (SIVITZFAILAND), MARCH 30.—For
many years Father Girard has devoted himself with the greatest
success to the business of education, and to him Fribourg is in-
debted for primary schools, and the handsomest building in
the city constructed for their service. Ilia 'zeal and his talents
are acknowledged oven by his enemies. At the epoch of tbe
re-establishment of the order of Jesuits in Fribourg, they pro-
cured the destitatiop of most of the Professors_of the College,
who were natives of the Canton, and their places were sup-
plied by strangers. Girard was then menaced with destitution.

He demanded his dismission to preserve tlie peace of the city,
but it was so warmly opposed by his fellow-citizens, that the
Jesuits and their partisans postponed 'their attempts against
Girard till a more suitable opportunity. This virtuous Pre-
late only replied t6:thee.caluninies of his enemies by redoubling
his zeal. At length his enemies, thinking they had obtained
a majority in the Council, presented a petition against him,
signed by the Bishop, censuring the religious instruction com-
municated by M. 0 irard, and demanding his dismission. A part
of the Council was astonished, but a majority determined that
the petition shuld be taken into consideration. As,soon as this
was known great discontent took place in the city. On the
night of the Bth and 9th a multitinie assembled, crying—
" Down with the Jesuits"—" Success to Girard ;" and they
attempted to force open the gates, and break the windows of
the College. The guard was called out to disperse the multi-
tude ; but the members shewed themselves not disposed to act
against their fellow-citizens in behalf of the Jesuits. Five per-
sons were, however, arrested, sent to the Criminal Court, but
afterwards set at liberty.
M. Girard, attacked in his honour, demanded that the' facts
should be inquired into by public examinations. This demand
was complied with, and the examination entered into, in the
presence of the Members of the Council of State, of the Coun-
cil for Education, and the principal clergy of the city. The re-
sult was such as the parents of M. (lirard's pupils could wish,
and highly honourable to this Gentleman. here the matter
rests at present. The irritation has not yet subsided. Since
the Jesuits have re-appeared on the scene they have done no.
thing to merit public confidence; on the contrary they show
themselves impatient to domineer, and every where betray their
troublesome genius.
GEN EvA, MA acts 31.—0 n Friday last tumultuous scenes
interrupted the sermon of a Missionary who officiated at the
Catholic Church of Saint Germain, and declaimed without
imitation against the reformed religion. The gendarmerie re-
itoreil order, and protected the Church for several days.
