REPORT OF MARSHAL MONCEY TO HIS EXCELLENCY

TUE MINISTLII, AT WAR.
"GERONA. JUNE 19.
" MY toub—ln my two last reports I gave
your Excellency an account of the • enemy's
column, which had descended into Cerdagtte, by
the valley of Osseja.

" The column which Mina commanded in per-
son, after having passed the mountains of Nuria,
debouched on the 14th by the valley of Err, and
proceeded towards ',Livia. Baron d'Eroles ad.
vancedupon Aja.

44 Minn, fearing that his retreat by the Valley
of the Segre might be in danger, marched on the
15th, first towards Guelti and thence to Villelle,
where he took a position, Baron d'Broles over.
took him there. After a pretty obstinate combat
the enemy, was obliged to retreat, which he did
in the greatest disorder ; the Royal Spanish
troops pursued him without intermission for two
hours, and killed 6 or 700 of his men. The inha.
bitants greatly contributed to the success of the
pursuit. Our loss was inconsiderable; we had
about 30 men hors de combat.

" Every thing announces that Mina has not
rallied more than 7 or 800 men under the walls
of the Seo d'Urgel. His entire corps would
have been destroyed, had not some circumstances
retarded the march to Guels of the corps which
pursued him. I have. given orders to Baron
dlEroles immediately to form the blockade of
the Seo d'Urgel.
" Among the officers and subalterns who'd's.
tinguished themselves in the actions of the 14th.
and 16th, Baron d'Eroles and Viscount St,
Priest particularly mention Colonel Roquemau.
rel ; M. de Gomel, officer of the Stall; M. Sil.
lique, chief of battalion ; Capt. Lavoltaire ; Ser.
jeaut-Major Bodemer, of the 2d light infantry ;
M. de Roquefeuille, chief of battalion; Captain
Ltfiggi, and Serjeant Concali of the SW of the
line.

" The garrison of Mtstalrich made four sallies
on the 13th of June. The attacks constantly
directed against the eight Spanish battalions
were vigorously repulsed.
" Brigadier Antonio Col, pursuing the erte-
my with his usual valour, wits struck by- the
splinter of a shell; his vi timid is extremely se-
rious.

LETTEE. FROM TliE LIEUT.-GENEEAL COMMANDING
TUE TENTH MILITARY DIVISION TO MS EXCEL-
LENCY THE husirrett AT WAD.
" TOULOUSE, JUNE 20.

" M Lottn—By my letter of the 16th of last
month, inforined your gxcellency that Gene-
ral Crosson!, having learnt the defeat of Mina,
repaired to Hospitalet with all the troops and
National Guards that lie could collect, and that
if he found a favourable opportunity to attack
the fugitive bands of that Chief, he would take
advantage of it.
44 1 have this moment received a fresh Report
from General Crossard, who informs me, that
having arrived at Terrascon, he received a dis-
patch from the Chief of Battalion, commanding
the companies assembled, informing him that
Mina was going towards the Sao d'Urgel along
the ridges of the mountains which lead to it.

" Being
then convinced that our territory
would not be insulted, and as the ridges
which Mina had to follow join those which
lead from Port de Bouet and Port Negre, in a
direct line to Urgel, General Crossard changed
his direction, and marched upon Auzat with the
intention df proceeding the following day to the
Plateau at Larvinas, whence be could at pleasure
ascend either Port de Bouet or Port Negro.
" Posted at the point where the ridges join,
General Crossard had every reason to hope that
he should arrive there before Mina ; for besides
a difficult passage, he had to go a great distance,
with harrassed and fatigued troops, which would
have met with soldiers who were fresh and in
high spirits. General Crossard left Auzat at
four o'clock in the morning. The march was
fatiguing, anti so dangerous, that a loaded mule
was precipitated into the valley in spite of the
efforts of the soldiers of the train and the can-
noneers. The little column did not reach till six
in the evening the ground where it was to stop.
The snow which had fallen the day before had
choaked up the ports (defiles), and rendered
the passage difficult. Nevertheless the great de-
sire which our soldiers felt to participate in the
destruction of Mina, made General Crossard per,
list in his resolution to continue his march
" A new dispatch from the Chief of Battalion
commanding at ilospitalet informed General Cros-
sard, that ,Mina, guided by two peasants, and
followed by only four of his men, had succeeded
in entering Urgel, at eleveu at night. All hope
was then lost. The General passed the night in
the Plateau of Larvinas, at the foot of the ports,
NI hit lice the troops set out the next morning to
,return to their respective cantonments.
" Geseral Crossard bestows great praise on
the troops of the sth Regiment. They displayed
a zeul and an ardour which prove what they

would be capable of doing on an important occa-
sion. The Velunteer National Guards that I
have organized, in concert with the Prefect, have
abewn the greatest eagerness to repair to the
rendezvous which have been assigned them in
case of an alarm.

[The Afotiitcur contains two Ordinances, the Ist ordering thl
organization of Baggage Mules for the service of the stray.—
The 2d is relative to the suspension of proceedings against
Members belonging to what are called the Councils of Admi-
nistration of the Corps of the Old Army which suspension.
was provisionally ordered by a decision of the Al inistcrof War
of Oct. 1, 1821. The suspension of such proceedings is de-
clared to be definitive in certain cases, but they are to be re-
sumed in the cases of persons who seem not to be entitled to
the indulgence.)

(From the Constitutionglo
[EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE. LETTER.]
" il,tatnuRcm, ju,NElfi„—,We learn that several commu-
.-tdcadons have been lately made on the part of some great con-
tinental Powers to the Cabinet of Stockholm and Copenhagen.
It appears that these communications had reference. to the
future position of Sweden and Denmark, with respect to some
Governments of the South. Nothing, however, has transpired
as to the contents of the notes presented to these ;.wo Courts,
nor as to the answer returned to them.
" According to private letters, it is impossible to describe
the interest which all Classes of the Swedish nation take in the
deliberations of the Diet."

BERNE, J1.12i107--The Directorial Government has
dressed a circular to several Governments of Cantons, to an-
nounce to them that the measures adopted. in consequence of
the first injunction which they received, have not been fudged
sufficient, and to indicate new concessions proper to satisfy the
foreigners, the founders of lielvetic Independence. Though
the contents of this Note are a secret, as well as the object of
the new letters to the Swiss Directory, it is suspected that it Is
specially directed against the friendly, meetings known by the
name of circles, which have existed from time immemorial in
all the towns of Switzerland, 'against literary meetings and
military fetes, and different associations of an useful or agree.
able nature. These are the only institutions which remain to
be suppressed in several States of Switzerland to deprive them
of every vestige of Republican Physiognomy.
[From the Journal de Path.)
P mus,. JuNE 24.—An attempt was, it is said, made to carry
off theiiing of Spain between Seville and Cattiz, but it did
not succeed.

A Journal, sometimes political and sometimes fanatical, ac.
cording as the wind blows from the Bureaux, this day reveals
to us one of the secret thonghts of its party. In the joy
caused by the news of Seville and the hopes of the results 'to
which it would lead, it exclaims—" It is now proved that a
Representative Monarchy must infallibly resolve itself into a
Republic, or rather into the hideous chaos which Revolu.
tionary superstitions had decorated with such a name. It is
proved that the cry of Live the Constitutional King means
no King."
