QFFICIAL AWFICLE;

The Secretary at "%Val. has •just received the fol.,
lowing letter from Mariscal de Campo Don ./C)EF
Itivaz, and Brigadier Don Insnr, PESCI, Military
Governor of the city of Santiago.
Most Excellent Senor General Coin.
mandaiit ad interim,. Don:josef Itnaz and myself
have the satisfaction to announce to your Excel-
lency that you may make it known to his M,ijesty;
that since the anxiety and agony,- into which.
the rebellion of the Ex-General Porher threw
all Galicia, and when he was marching towards
this city .with troops and artillery, I.e has been.
arrested by the'serjeants and heads of the corps
he commanded, whom he endeavoured to make
accomplices in his treason., The active measures
which were•taken, have contributed to this happr
event ; and General Iniaz marched out with all
ottr force to meet the despicable force of Porlier,
which did not exceed 800 men and 6 pieces of ar-
tillery while in the mean time, I was taking all
measures for the internal government of this city,
sending orders to the out- parties that they should
forthwith unite and :concur in the execut on of
every order they might receive, and dispatching
expresses to Mariscal de Campo Don Alejandro
Ojea; General Commandant of the province of
Tuy, to come and take upon himself,the Govern..
meat of this kingdom, as your Excellency told
lne ; and who has in fact arrived, having left
every thing arranged conducive to the defence and
tranquillity of his own province.
" It is im.npossible to give a circumstantial rela,
tion of the whole commencehient, progress, and.
termination of this affair, for it is necessary to
attend to the restoration of matters to their due
order. I shall, -from time to time, have the ho-
nour of communicating to your Excellency chat-
ever may occur, having the satisfaction that this
atrocious attempt has been entirely cut short, by
the capture of the factious Porlier and 34 Officers,
all of whom I have deemed it proper to p!ace is
the prisons of the Inquisition, for greater secu-
rity and the convenience of keeping them with-
out communication, having at present no other
place for that purpose. May God preserve your
Excellency many years.

BRUSSELS, OCT. consequen6e of the
conditions established by the 'treaty of Peace, a
part of the Prussian army is to leave France. Yo,
notwithstanding this, it is observed that•severat
battalions of Prussians. pass the Moselle, in order•
to penetrate intoYrance, and that other corps of
Landwehr are upon their march for the same des—

tination, •
-The blockade of Charlemont is again made
'lunch more Strict, and it even seems that mea-
sures are taking anew to prosecute the siege of
that fortress; it is to be presumed that the con-
tradictions which appear in those circumstances
will be speedily cleared up. Within a tew days,
sevfral Officers at Lisle have been confined in the
citadel for having deStroyed the King's Ordinance,
to return to their own departments ; Most of the
French military not only seem to be animated
with a bad spirit, but do not scruple openly to
avow it. We hear that the National Guard at
Douay, which does the duty in that fortress, has
received orders to redouble its vigilance, because
troops of the Allies were-not far from the pl:ice.
The same National Guards have been offertql
pay as regular troops, but have declined it ; the
, same has been the case at Valenciennes and

Arras. -
The Prussian troops continue to advance in the
•neighbourhood of Metz and Verdun, andlrave even
gone into cantonments cloSe to the environs of
those two fortresses.
HAGUE, OCT. 11.—This afternoon we had the,
pleasure to see our beloved Queen arrive here, with.
the Princess Marianne, and soon after his Majesty
'the King, with a small retinue. Their Majesties
alighted at the Palace in the Vonhaut. It is said.
his Majesty will immediately go to the Texel to
view the Ist division of the troops destined for
whose
Batavia, departure, if wind- and weather-
are favourable, is said to be fixed for the kith of
this month. •
ANTwEJIP., OCT. 7.—An Official notice has been.
'published, that our four Commissioners from the
Society for the Encouragement of the Fine Arts,
have snceecded in obtaining the restoration of our
pictures. The day when they are brought back.
