LONDON,
SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 18e3.

We have inserted in our preceding columns
extracts from the French Papers of Wednesday,
and copious details from the Seville Official
Journals, of the deeply interesting proceedings
in the Spanish Cortes, previous to the departure
of the King and the Cortes for Cadiz.
We have also received, by Express from Paris,

the Journal des Debuts and the 'Mot:item' 'of
Thursday, from which we subjoin 'the! following
important Extracts:—

(From the Journal des Dibats.)
MADRID, JUNE 20.
The details of the journey of the King are every dey rectified.
His Majesty set out by land, and it was proposed that lie
should sleep at Utrea. •It appears that he was attended by no
more thin three Grandees of-Spain, the Marquis of Santa Cruz,
the Duke of Nijar, and General Patlafoi.
The 'escort which accompanies the Kipg has, it is said, an
order to proceed to the last extremities if he should endeavour
to escape.
The departure from Seville took place with so Much disorder,
that the Cortes have left some millions in money, a great deal
'of silver plate, and a part of the artillery of their troops. The
greater slumber of the Councillors of State have remained at
Seville, as well as thirty of the Deputies, and from two to throe
hundred officers; who were indignant at the violence done to
the Xing. It is stated that when the Constitutional Regency
notified to the King the hour of departure, they made use of
the word you in speaking to his Majesty.
General Bordesoult, instead of entering Seville, which is at
some distance from the high road to Cadiz, is preparing to
march rapidly to Port St. Mary's, in order to overtake, if pos-
sible, the rear guard of General Zayas. He has directed Gen.
Bourmont to occupy Seville, and then to join him near the
Bay of Cadiz. The same .Journal states that Count Abishal
has written 'to his brother, who commands St. Sebastian, an
extremely pressing letter, in which he persuades him to sur-
render the.fortress, In order not to expose the town to the mis-
fortunes of 'a siege. This letter was sent to the,Counnantlant
of Tolosa, who has forwarded it to St. Sebastian.
It appears from en article dated Toulouse, 20th ofJune; that
Mina succeeded in getting into the Seo d'Urgel on the 16th, at
.eleven at night. On the previous day, according to General
.11Ipncey's report, dated Girona, the 19th of June, Baron
d'Eroles came up with Mina. " After a resistance sufficiently
obstinate," says Monceyy" the enemy was compelled to retreat,
and_ Made it in the greatest disorder; the Spanish troops pur.
sued him without cessation for two hours, and killed from
6- to 700 of his men. The inhabitants contributed actively
to the
. success of this pursuit Our loss has been In-
considerable. We have about thirty men hors de combat
Everything indicates that Mina has not rallied under the walls
of the Seo d'Urgel more than from 7to 800 men. All his
force would have been destroyed if some circumstances had
not retarded the march of the corps which pursued him. I
have given orders to M. the Baron d'Eroles to form imme.
diately the blockade of the Seo d'Urgel."
The Minister of the Interior haasuppressed the 211 rioir by
an order dated the 24th of June.

BULLETIN.

The Count Rordesoult reports to his Royal Highness that
he was on the 16th at La,Carlota. The troops of his column
had there given a new proof of the zeal which may be expected
from them on all occasions. The park of artillery of the reserve
had been placed in a corn field in advance of the town: the flre of a
bivouac bad caught the straw; the wind impelled it with such ra-
pidity, that soon after the park was entirely surrounded by flames;
all the troops imniediately hastened to the spot, and no dan-
ger prevented the officers and soldiers from taking away the
caissons in their arms. The explosion of a powder-chest could
not check their, intrepidity to their exertions was owing the
preservation of the park, which was taken out of the midst of
the flames amidst cries of hive le Roy! Vire le Due (l'An-
gvulente I , The Captain de Alontferret, of the 3d regiment of
infantry of the Guard, who in this occurrence, gave the strongest
proof of his zeal, was slightly wound, eight men of different
corps were wounded by the explosion of the chest, but their
wounds fortunately are not serious.
Count Ilordesoult will march directly for Cadiz, in order to
prevent the admission of sublistence, with which that city is
not yet provided. The terror caused in the Cortes by the
march of our columns, has rustle them quit Seville with so
much precipitation; that they have left several millions in the
coffers, and a great deal of silver plate stolen from the churches.
There ix a great defection amongst the troops : more than four
hundred officer' have remained in Seville.
Count de Bourmont, after having re-established order in that
great city, will promptly regain General Ilourdesoult.
• . • It is understood, that the Constitutional troops, under Villa-
Ciunpa • and Lopez Banos, who had retired towards Ronda,
when they , received intelligence at the odious manner in which
the King was taken from Seville, dispersed, abandoning their
_ Generals.

The Spanish Royalist Chief, Don Ramonchambo, who
on the 12th made himself master of the castle of Tortosa,
took possession on the 15th of the other works of that place,
and brought them back to the power of his Catholic Majesty.
Thus out citieet communications between Catalonia and Va-
lencia are assured by the possession of this important place.
Throughout Mancha the peasants unite themselves to
the French and Spanish troops, and of themselves apprehend
straggling parties of the army of IlaUasteros, which present
themselves in that part of the province which borders on Va-
lencia. The Major-General, Count GUILLEMINOT.

TRIESTE, JUNE 11.—A vessel which has arrived here from
Samos, and which has touched at Hydra and Corfu, confirms
the news of the capture of Lepanto by the Greeks. The sur.
render of Negropont was also announced at Hydra, but this
wants confirmation. The Captain further says, thqf Coloco.
troni has sent in his submission to the Central Government,
and that all was in order in the Marta. A part of the Greek
fleet was near Hydra; two other sqUadrotts at Tenedos and
.11itylene.
:MATE:WE, JUNE 16.—1 t is just announced to us that the
Central Commission for democratic plots will continue its
sittings in our city, and resume its labours. No formal decision

has, ,it is said, been yet made on this subject, but it has been
arranged in a confidential sitting of the Ministers of the Diet,
by a majority of voices.
