The lifoniteur of Sunday contains the follow-
ing official intelligence from the French Armies

in Spain :

ARMY OF TILE PYRENEES.

REPORT OF TILE MAJOR-GENERAL TO HIS EXCEL.

LEND* TUE MINISTER AT WAR.
MADRID, JUNE 8.

I have the honour to inform your Excellency,
that after a slight skirmish the bridge of Arzo-
bhp°, defended by 400 men of the regiment of
infantry of Guadalaxa, and 100 dragoons, was
Carried on the 6th instant, at eight o'clock in the
morning, by the ninth light infantry, in co-ope-
ration with the advanced guard of Count Dour-
mont's column. We had no killed or wounded.
General Yellin pursued the enemy as far as
Valdelacasas, whence he yesterday continued
his movement upon Mesa de Ybar, and would
arrive to-day at Romangordo.

General Bourmont, with the rest of his troops,
marched on the right bank of the Tagus on Al-
maraz, where he would arrive yesterday even-
ing, and where he intended making his passage
this day.

A letter from Count Molitor, dated from
Stigura the sth of this month, announces that he
continued his movement on Teruel, where he
expected to arrive yesterday, the 7th.
According to various reports, an enemy's corps
was entrenched at Tercial. Ballasteros has
marched out in front of Valencia.
P.S. Monseigneur has this moment received
accounts from Count Bourdesoulle ; they are
dated from Manzanares yesterday, at half-past
seven in the evening. His advanced guaui
at Val-de-Papas, and it was his intention to have
remained this day in his present position, but
anxious to over take the enemy's rear guard,
which is not above four or five leagues in advance
of him, he had determined to set out from thence
at two in the mornin, and to continue his march.
The Major-General, COUNT GUILLEMINOT.

A report from Lieutenant General Baron Rot'
tembourg to the Minister of War, dated Perpig-
nan, June 0, 1823, states, that Mina had.eva-
cuated Tea Cerdagne, retiring by the valley of
Ribas with 2,000 men, 80 horse, and 20 mules,
charged with munitions and money. It appeared,
from his anxiety to avoid an action, that his only ob.
ect was to escape the pursuit of Generals Donna-
dieu,San Priest, and d'Eroles, who were closely fol-
lowing him. It was supposed that he wished to
march on Figneres whilst the French troops were
seeking him in the Cerdagne. A report from the
Lieutenant of the King, dated Pratz di Mollo
the Bth June, informs Baron Rottembourg that a
division of the army of Mina occupied the town

cc
,Tt

of Campredon on the Bth, at two in the after-

110011.

The Moniteur communicates the following ac-
counts contained in dispatches, dated Madrid
June 8, which arrived on Saturday night at
Paris :

" A letter to General Lopez Banos from his

nephew `►as been intercepted. It states that the
news relative to Portugal is confirmed. On the
Ist June the Constitution was abolished, and on
the c2d rejoical guns were fired at Elvas on this
event. The report was heard at Badajos, where
it vt as rumoured that the new Portuguese Govern-
ment was going to form a cordon on its frontier,
and to prohibit all communication with the revo-
lutionary Spaniards.
" A courier from Lisbon announces that every
thing was completed on the Ist June ; that the
Cortes bad been dissolved, and the King re-in-
vested with his former authority.

"In confirmation of this news, we have
received the declaration of a Portuguese Officer
who arrived at Madrid to-day, from which it
appears that Count d'Amarante has re-entered
Portugal. A person who left Seville on the sth,
assures us that there was no intention of remov-
ing the King. Every thing tends to shew that
the march of our troops there will determine some
movement in favour of the King."
• LISBON, MAT 31.—The following are the

The nide Paris Paper of Sunday contains the
following paragraphs
PARIS, JUNE 15.—The three Envoys from
Russia, Prussia, and Austria, left Paris this
morning for the Regency at Madrid.
It is said that the Count de l'Abisbal has been
shot by those who arrested him. According to
the same news, the courier with whom the Ex-
General travelled in disguise was wounded in de-
fending him.
In commenting on the account from Lisbon
given in the Moniteur, the people in the exchange
yesterday were astonished that no positive news
of so important an event, said to have happened
so long ago as June 1, had reached Paris.
It is said, that on the 6th of June a serious affair
took place between the Spanish General Rotten
and General Count Curial, in which the former
bad not the disadvantage.

PERPIGNAN, YUNI: 7.—A detachment of Con-
stitutional troops from Cardona has marched on
Soßona, and burned the convents and the houses
of a few inhabitants who had been partisans of
the Army of the Faith."
The Journal des Dl•bals of Sunday contains
some details of the counter-revolutionary pro-
ceedings at Lisbon ; but nothing more precise as
to their result than the account we gave in our
last. The Diario do Govern() is quoted for the
following article :

64 LISBON, MAY 31.—The following are some
details respecting the counter.revolution com-
menced four days ago, !yid which is not yet ter-
minated. The Infante Don Miguel made a move-
ment at nine in the morning with 30 horse and
360 foot. lie caused the abolition of the Consti-
tution to be proclaimed in the square of Villa.
Franca, and afterwards proceeded out of the
town on the road to Santarem.

- - _ .•
The Prince sent the following letter to his
august father :
" My Father and Lord,—My only grief is for having left
your Majesty's palace without your permission ; but as I could
not obtain it from your prudence, and being unable longer to
see the degradation of the throne, contrary to the wish of the
whole kingdom, I have adopted a course which your Majesty
as a King cannot disapprove. We ought to preserve the Royal
Majesty unimpaired ; it is a deposit with which we are in-
trusted. I merely aim at serving your Majesty, as my King,
as my father, and delivering the nation. I hope that Heaven
will aid us, and that, as a father, you will give me your bene-
diction, though as a King you may have to perform outward
acts contrary to your Royal heart. I kiss your Majesty's hands.
" Your most devoted son, " 111 IGUE L."
'The Prince' sent for General Pamplona, who
repaired immediately to him.
The square of Villa Franca was illuminated
on the evening of the 27th. Many detachments
deserted their posts.
General Sepulveda (the author of the first Re-
volution of Oporto) was intrusted with the de.
fence of the capital. On the 28th he published
a,preclarnation,-in which he requested the people
of the capital to place confidence " in a man who
never had any other thing in view than the hap-
piness of his country." But on the 2flth it was
learned that Sepulveda had left the city with all
the troops he could carry off, and that he had
joined the Infante Don Miguel.
In the Sitting of the 30th, the "War Minister
made a report to the Cortes, from which it ap-
peared that " the traitor Sepulveda had caused
the desertion of 2,760 of the troops of the line."
At the opening of the sitting, it was notified
that the King had appointed a new Ministry ;
but some hours after it was announced that Don

Neves Costa, appointed Minister of War, had
gone over to the factious. The King appointed
in his place the deputy Fonseca Rangel.
M. de Braancamp, one of the heath of the mo-
derate party, who was appointed Minister for
Foreign Affairs, appears also to have left the

town.
The troops assembled at Villa Franca inter-
cept the couriers.
The Cortes have appointed the Deputy Jorge
d'Aviliz de Souza-Pavers General-in-Chief of the
Army. The guard of the King's person is in-
trusted to the 18th regiment."

It would be in vain to attempt, in the present
imperfect state of our information, to reconcile
the inconsistencies which appear in the above
statement, and in the Madrid letter which we
published yesterday. The Villa Franca, in
which Prince Miguel is said to have proclaimed
tl►e abolition of the constitution, is doubtless a
small town of that name, about 18 miles from
Lisbon, on the road to Santarem ; but from the
manner in which the transaction is described in
the French papers, it might at first sight be sup-
posed that Villa Franca was some spot within
the city of Lisbon. It is first described as
la Place dice de Villa Franca, and afterwards la
Place de Villa Franca. Is it possible that this
proclamation at Villa Franca may have given
rise to the report of the abolition of the constitu-
tion at Lisbon ? One thing is not a little re-
markable, that the Prince was, according to this
account, going from Lisbon. fie was already at
Villa Franca, and had begun his march for San-
tarem,* which is a considerable way farther from
the capital. On what day this movement took
place does not appear, but the article in which
these facts are stated being dated the 31st, must
be presumed to be extracted from the Lisbon
paper of the Ist of June, the very day on which
the counter-revolution was said to be completed.
• The place is called, in the Journal des Debats, Santerna—
obviously an error of the press.

SUN.OFFICE, Two o'CLocx.

A French Telegraphic Dispatch has been re•
ceived in London, announcing that the French
Army had penetrated to Boyle!), on the road
to Seville ; and that a Spanish corps had
been defeated at Vich, in Catalonia. We

have not seen the dispatch; but we appre-
hend that the defeat at Vich alluded to, is
nothing more thnn the repulse of MINA in his
brilliant attack upon that place, which was
already known. Though we have not seen the
Telegraphic Dispatch, it is nevertheless quite
certain that it has been received in London.

We extract the following from the Morning
Chronicle of to-day, as being calculated to give
heart to those interested in the Spanish cause :

" STATE OF SPAIN
To the Editor of the Morning Chronicle.

Sin—l am sure it will give you pleasure, and will delight
your numerous readers, to be informed that I have this day re.
ceived from an Widligent Correspondent, from a man on whom
reliance may be placed, the most gratifying accounts of the
public spirit in Spam. My friend says " the Duke d'.Angou-
letne's is a devoted Army," and will dearly pay for its temerity.
A simultaneous attack will be made on many weak points be-
fore the expiration of June, and if even one of these succeed,
the French central position will not be very comfortable ; but I
transcribe his very words, speaking of the feeling in the country,
and of that indefatigable fellow. Mina.
I am, your obedient servant,
A TRUE FRIEND TO SPAIN.
The letter is dated Abeam, May 17.

[EXTR ACT.
Toda la Espana se connmeve : ballasteros acude con sus

In speaking of the gallant Mimi, my Mend thus enthusi-
astically expresses himself:—
Impenetrable en sus designios, y constante en seguirlos
en el sikncio' carnina por largos rodeos pars adelantar el
felix exito. No le irritan los obstaculos, porque su Prudentia
los ha prevenido totlos ; no le sorprehende lo futuro, porcine su

su bravo fixiaria la fortuna si su Penatracion' no la

P.S.-111y friend has promised me the earliest intelligence
from this part of Spain. You shall have it as it comes to
hand. God grant ►t may be as satisfactory as the friends of
civil and religious liberty can wish."

We have received the subscription of 51. ss.
for the Spaniards, and of 2/. for the Greeks,,from
A. J. HAstiLTori, of Dalzell House, Esq., and
have handed them over, in the manner directed,
