TRENCH PAPERS OF THURSDAY.

The Moniteur gives the following official intelligence re-
ceived by the French Government from Bayonne :—" A
telegraphic despatch of the 16th states, that the Guipos-
coans had attempted, an attack on Tolosa, but without
success. They were on the 15th in the direction of the
passage of Oyarzun. Zumalacarregui was on the 13th, in
the neighbourhood of Estella. Rodil was marching against
him with Lorenzo and Figueira. The Junta is at Etchalar.
Don Carlos has remained in Biscay."
(From the Indicatcur of Bordeaux.)
The insurgents who have come to the frontier to make
their submission, report that the insurgent troops are in a
frightful state' of destitution. They are in want of every-
thing. The only thing they have got is meat, but they have
scarcely time to cook it.', As for bread, there are battalions
who have been without it for seven or eight days. Deser-
tions are still going on, and the Carlist chiefs only succeed in
sustaining the courage Of their troops by assuring them
the Russians will lose no time in entering Spain, Mean-
while, it is certain that the insurgents lost upwards of
100 men in the fruitless attack of Bergara. Zumalacar-
regui, at the date
pursuit
last news, was in the environs of
Viana, engaged in of the Christinos, who were sur-
prised in that small town, when, being himself surprised by
General Lorenzo, who has 5,000 men under his command,
he was forced to pass the Ebro with three battalions and
his cavalry, to avoid an engagement. It is, however, stated
that an engagement did -actually take place, and that the
Carlists were completely beaten. In spite of their success
at Viana, our frontier is covered with Carlists. On the
13th, 16 arrived at the French advanced posts, which they
left for the interior. The approaches to Pampeluna con-
tinue full of small bands of insurgents, who fall on all sol-
diers they happen to find alone. It is principally the ca-
valry that they attack, in the hope of procuring horses
with which they are unfurnished. Terror is at its height
in the provinces : two villages reputed to be infected with
Carlism have been burnt and the Alcaldes shot. It is
stated that the whole of that part of the Rivera which had
not hitherto moved is rising in favour of Don Carlos. A
traveller, who arrived at St. Sebastian on the 12th, states
that at his departure a report was in circulation that As-
peita had been taken by the Carlists and burnt. Others
assert that the burning took place on the estates of the
Duchess of Granada, and was occasioned by the partisans
of the Queen, because that lady had the imprudence to
celebrate the arrival of the Pretender. A decree, ordering
all the liberal Spaniards to return to Spain, is spoked of ;
and in default of compliance, their property, it is said, will
be confiscated. We are informed, by a courier
,just
this instant arrived, that Lorenzo had at last got up with
Zumalacarregui, and that the troops of the latter experi-
enced a dreadful defeat. We are in possession of no de-
tails respecting this affair.
(From Galignani's Messenger.)
The Augsburg Gazette of the 14th instant has the fol-
lowing from Turin of the sth :—" Don Miguel will reside
for the present at Rome. He will leave two of his suite
at Genoa, in order to keep up his communication with Por-
tugal and Spain. Arrangements are now in progress for
the evacuation of Ancona. The Cabinets of Austria and
France have agreed upon leaving it to the Pope to decide
upon the period when he shall deem it advisable for the
French troops to evacuate Ancona, and the Austrian troops
to quit the Legations. As soon as the Government of
Rome shall feel itself sufficiently strong to dispense with
foreign succour, it has but to declare the fact, and all
foreign troops will leave the States of the Church. Thus
will be accomplished the projects of Casimir Perier, which
were during his lifetime incapable of being realized, because
the evacuation of Ancona was demanded without the
withdrawing of the Austrian troops. , The distrust
which existed between the popular and the absolute Go-
vernments has disappeared. The Cabinet of the Tuilleries
seemed to have abandoned the desire of exercising supre-
macy in Italy." The Gazette has accounts from Vienna
of the 9th, which state that " during the previous night
a fire broke out in Wienerich Neustadt, a small manu-
facturing town in the Austrian dominions, which was entirely
reduced to ashes. The utmost energy on the part of the au-
thories and the military was required to preserve the Military
Academy from destruction. The damage is said to be im-
mense. The Government would have sustained great loss
had the fire extended itself to the magazine of ammunition
established in the immediate vicinity of the town, and
which is principally devOted to the manufacturing and ware-
housing of General Augustin's rockets. The great want of
water, which is sensibly felt during the excessive heat, con-
tributed materially to the want of success in extinguishing
the flames. The long drought has been universally felt
through Out Austria, and the troops in the camp of Moravia
have suffered greatly from it. This camp will be broken
up on the 16th, and the return of his Majesty to the capi-
tal is fixed for the 20th.—Our funds are 5 per Cent. Me-
talliques, 984 ; 4 per Cents. ditto, 888 ; Bank Actions,
1,237 i."

The Suabian Mercury has the following of the Bth inst.
from Rotterdam ;—" It is rumoured here, as well as at
Amsterdam, that at the next meeting of the States-general
the Government will only demand the sums necessary to
pay the interest of the portion of the common debt that
Holland has to support, in conformity to the known draft
of the treaty, and the creditors will be referred to the Go-
vernment for the sum of 8,400,000 florins, forming its part.
Persons who have relations with the Hague nevertheless
affirm that the Dutch Government will demand the total
amount of the interest. To act otherwise would be to ac-
knowledge formally the Belgian government, and put itself
in contradiction with the policy pursued by the King. This
is a thing evidently impossible.'
The Konigsberg Gazette of the sth inst. states, that
accounts have been received in that city respecting the
Polish refugees, who in compliance with their wishes had
been put on board a vessel at Dantsic, bound for America,
and who disembarked in England. Upon that occasion
they refused to continue their voyage to the New World.
But they now have unanimously signed a petition to be
conveyed to the place of their destination. " This new
fact," says the Gazette, " affords a striking proof of the
vacillation of these gentlemen, who now consider as the
height of good fortune what they had before proclaimed to
the world as a great calamity, and to which they submitted
only from compulsion."
BOURSE, THURSDAY, SEPT. 18.—Against the expecta-
tion of almost every one, the securities have risen to-day ;
the 3 per Cents. opened at 76f. 10c., and gradually im-

The Spanish stock is also firm ; 5 per Cents., 354 ; 3 per
Cents., 25; Cortes, 431.
It is said' that the mission of M. Lionel, nephew of Mr. ,
Rothschild,who is gone to Madrid, is to offer to the Govern-
