:Duke of Reggio will cross the Bidastoa on the
10rders have been given 'for theestablish-
-mint .of a line of telegraphs from -Bayonne to
;Paris, which, it is said will be in full activity on
.he 15th. This. Paper also contains a letter from
`Sautos.Lndron, one of the chiefs Of the Army sof
the Faith, in which hepretends that he has gained
a victory Over a detachment of the Constitutional
Army, and has taken 600 prisoners, WO of whom,
`however, afterwards escaped.
The Cansidationnel :contains.stn account of a
,disturbance at Brest, which originated in the
„alleged ill-treatment of an inebriated woman by
some Swiss soldiers. The populace rescued the
•woman from their hands, and pleced'her in the
'house of aAt Picard. The soldiers •forced the
.door of the house, and M.Ticard:and.his wife
•were token off to prison. This arrest excited
• great discontent, and numerous groups shonteiY
pout, "Long live -the King—down with the
-'Swiss!" The generale was beat, and the city
gates shut, though it %veg.,. only .8 o'clock in the
••evening, and a great number of ipeople were with-
. out the Walls. The sentinels were doubled, and
.the troops under arms ; great confusion ensued;
-end the inhabitants who wished to enter the gates
llung stones over the ramparts ; some .itius4,ets
;were fired ; the inhabitants were•ordered to.shut
thernuelves up in their houses. At length teen-
.:oeillity was restored, and the only result:of the
.tumult 'Was a regret that such violent measures
• had been employed on such a trifling occasion.
. The Mayor issued the following proclamation t—
" Inhabitants of Brest !..,..Yesterday was marked by deplor.
tilde scenes. Several peaceable inhabitants have reason to emu.
. 0414 of violence exercised against their persons z in contempt•
of the law the asylum of a citizen was violated, and he himself
. assaulted in his own house, by the armed force whose duty it•
was to protect him. ' Your inagitktrates are making scruptilomi
inquiries into the affair, and you may reckon on severe justice
- being inflicted against the guilty. Confide, therefore, in their
. solicitude ; maintain that calm, attitude, and that harmony, of
- which you have already given so ninny proofs."
The Conslitulionnel also mentions that the
•fmanufacturers an merchant's of 140114 have for-
• warded to the Chamber of Deputies, a petition
• for the maintenance of pence with Spain. It fur-
, thee states that several inhabitants the de.-
pertinent of the Arriege had been put upon their
• trial for havirigaided the escape- of some Spanish
prisoners taken by the Artily of the Faith.—
They were, however, unanimously acquitted.
'The Duchess d'Angoulethe 'was eniected to ar-
rive at Bordeaux on the 6th. The debates in
the Chamber of Deputies appear to possess very
tittle interest. The principal speakers were M.
Bazire, and the Keeper of the Seals, on the new
financial measures. The latter vindicated his,
conduct in the late prosecutions at Poitiers,
,Strasburg, &c. •

His Excellency'the Minister of Marine has Ordered the
Coatroinsary of the illarine to acquaint the ship owners, that a
•frigate will sail for the isle of Aix on the 15th A pril, to con-
voy merchant ships ;Ant another will Bali for Brest on the
huts of May,• anti that no more will sail before the end of
September. This notice has alarmed the ship owners, who,
stiebrthat there will be no ship of war to convey their vessels,
ItillWobliged to dismantle them."
Tbe Journalist has forgotten, •and doubtless
very innocently, to say that this notice concerns
.only vessels bound Co our West India •Colonies.
It would be difficult to conceive how the ship-
owners of Havre could be alarmed at the notice
of a measure, the 'reason of which is known to
•them all. ho, in fact, is ignorant Out, no con-
signments are made to the Antilles from the
,month of June to the end of geptetnber, because'
-the hurricanes which take place in those islands
-learn the middle of July• to the end of October
would endanger vessels which should be lying
there ; at the Same time, that the crews would
be exposed to the local diseases which are there
the most violent. But this 'explanation would
/not have suited the views of the Pilote. It was
necessary to cast blame on the intentions of the
Govern/neat, and to make the kind readers of
the Plloge belleVe that the French merchants are
obliged to.dismantle their ships. What signifies
truth, when so honourable an object is to be at-
