SPAIN.

It will be perceived by the following despatches
which have been received by the French govern-
ment that the telegraphic communications with
Madrid have been resumed :

" The French Consul to the Minister of Foreign

Affairs.

" St. Sebastian, 30th.

!' By a despatch of this day, General-Echagup
announces that General Duke is at Muela, two
leagues from Saragossa. Nothing new has occur-
red."

" The Consul-General of France to the Minister o.
Foreign Affairs.
" Barcelona, 29th, 3 p.m.

" Order continues to reign in this city. Cata-
lonia is entirely in the power of the Queen's troops.
The national guard of Girona, like those of the
other localities, are giving up their arms and re-
turning home."
The Moniteur contains the following :—" Pri-
vate despatches from Madrid, dated July 29, trans-
mitted by telegraph, give the following news :
' The resistance which was made in some localities
in the centre and in the east of Spain lasted for the
time necessary to remove the erroneous ideaswhich
had excited hopes of success among the revolu-
tionists. The disarming of the National Guard
has been effected in all directions, and the army
has everywhere shown itself brave and loyal. The
Government is engaged in replacing the authorities
who have shown weakness or negligence, without
regard to parties. The Queea calls for union and
activity in every branch of the public administra-
tion. The letters published by the French press
are, it is said, gent rAlly incorrect, and the account
which they give of the insurrectionary force at Sa-
ragossa is exaggerated. The rumours which had
been put in circulation about discord and disunion
existing in the Cabinet are utterly unfounded.
Madrid is perfectly tranquil. The majority of the
inhabitants of Saragossa call for submission ; a
violent minority, belonging to the very lowest
classes of society, alone attempt to resist. The
principal attention of the Government is directed
to the maintenance of public order. General Es-
partero is living peaceably at Madrid, and has not
been disturbed."

We have received the Madrid journals of the
26th, but they contain little intelligence of interest.
According to accounts from adatayud, small de-
tachments of troops and of private persons, who
had succeeded in making their escape from Sara-
gossa, were arriving in that place. A number of
the national guard had also contrived to elude the
vigilance of the insurgents, and to get out of the
town. Saragossa journals to the 22d had reached.
Madrid ; they contain a number of violent procla-
mations. The well-disposed part of the population
were much alarmed at the attitude assumed by
" the patriots," as the insurgents styled them-
selves, and were quitting the place as fast as they
could contrive to do so. The son of the Marquis
d'Albaida has sent an address to the President of
the Cortes, protesting against the imprisonment of
his father at Valencia. M. Orense is still closely
confined in the citadel of that place.
The Gazette of Madrid say s, "Notwithstanding
the disarming of the National Guard at Seville,
there were some disorders at the barriers on the
23d. Several of the rebels were killed, and order
was re- established."

We also read in the Gazette :—" A column, com-
posed of infantry, cavalry, and artillery, has marched
from Valencia to join Brigadier Damato, who is at
Villaverda, a province of Teruel, with forces sent
from the district of ArragYon. As soon as the junc-
tion of these troops is effected, they will operate
upon Teruel, to re-establish obedience to her Ma-
jesty's government and chastise the rebels."

The Patrie says Our despatches from Spain
contain news from Lugo and Corunna. Lugo was
in the enjoyment of the most profound calm. The
civil governor, who had attempted a pronuncia-
mento, has taken to flight. At Corunna, General
Vassallo continued the disarmament of the militia.
This news is of the 22d."
Marshal O'Donnell has decided to form two new
regiments of sharpshooters of two battalions each,
to be composed of picked men from other regi-
ments. These troops will be armed with rifles
recently manufactured at Tudela. O'Donnoll has
also appointed a commission to draw up a plan
for the orgaiaisation of a commissariat upon the
Frenoh system. Patrie says with much naiveté
that the army occupies the marshal's attention at
this moment more than any other institution of
the country, and that he endeavours, above all
things, to assimilate its constitution to that esta-
blished in France.
