It is reported that " some important intelligence has
been received from Spain within these few days, in re-
spect to the Queen Regent journeying to Paris. That
the French King proposed to his son, the Duke
d'Aumale, to marry the young Queen of Spain ; also
that General Espartero had written a letter to the
Queen Regent expressing his regret at abandoning her
cause. At the same time, inviting her to return to the
Basque Province, to which point he would march with
a large force and put down the Juntas, ih the execution
of which, he was to be joined by the French army on the
borders of Spain." The latter part of this report cer-
tainly appears very absurd.

Extract of a letter from Fort Kahun, July 20 :

Poor Clarke !—believe not one word of those re-
ports in the Papers about his rashness ; he had a most
desperate game to play—you cannot conceive what a
country he had to pass through, passes where 100 brave
men would defeat 10,000. If he had retreated as ad-
vised, the Murrees would have followed him up the
whole way to Pullajee, from whence he was forty miles ;
night and day he would have had no peace. My situa-
ation is not an enviable one, but far from perilous, for
though I.have the whole of this tribe against me, and a
report of another, the Kozacks, about to join them, I
feel confident, with God's blessing, of being able to hold
my post against them until I obtain relief. I have
been strengthening myself every possible way with
ditches, double walls, stakes, and palisades. I have
every confidence in the pluck of the old regiment of.
sepoys. I have seen a great deal of these rascally
Beloochces, and have no opinion of thei• courage, unless
they have thirty to one man. Our turn is coming, and
if we do not revenge the massacre of our poor com-
panions lam much mistaken. I have reported being
able to hold out to the Ist September, but unless then
relieved shall be badly off for provisions."
