ARRIVAL OF CABRERA IN

FRANCE.

The following ceeount of the arrival of Cabrera at Per-
pignan, is given in a letter from the town ;--
" Cabrera arrived at night on, the Bth instant, escorted
by a brigade of gendarmerie commanded by an officer, and
acerqnpanied by only one person, said to have been his
aide-de-camp. He alighted at the Hotel de l'Europe.
AF arrival was expected, a great concourse of people
was collected during the day at the gate by which he was
ewer. About nine o'clock, a private eareage came in,
l:clicaing it to be his, the crowd assailed it with er'ee
of D, ails to Cabrera,' and some opprobrious expressions ;

Ji-eely'reatercd. The palice then gave out that he would
not coal' the town till next day, and when he did arrive, by
drivieg through the byc-strects, and taking other precau-
tions, there were not moTe than about 200 persons astern-
blad at the gates ef the hotel. These received him with
hootings and exi,ressions of reprobation. Some, but these
we:e Spanish refugees, shouted Death to Cabrera !.
Orders had been given for his being sent to Paris without
stopping, but his exhausted condition prevented this.
IL has fourteen woends, but none of them received in the
last battle. He repeats that he had 15,000 Lions left, and
would net have came into France had he not been without
money, ammunition, and provisions. - rae fact is, that
since the arrival of a special inspector of police at Perpig-
nan, all ,muggling has been completely prevented, and the
fete of the rebels foreseen. Cabrera cannot stand up-
tight, and when be moves has to he supported by too per-
toss." The _Emancipation of Toulouse states that Ca-
brera at rived on Thursday evening in that town, and pawed
th? night there. He wore a plain frock-cost over a white
hiry waistcoat, and a white berret on his head with a
Llaek tassel. Several Carlist refugees and legitimists of
distinction waited on him, and his reception continued till
midnight. lie left Toulouse at six o'clock on Friday
morning. and on Saturday morning'passed through Brives.
