PARIS, TUESDAY, JULY 22, 8:A.11.

dated St. Sebastian, July 21, 2 p.m.:—

Santander made an attempt at a movement,
but order has been restored there.

Navarre and the north provinces are tranqui';
It is said that at Saragossa matters are in a

fair way of arrangement.

FRANCE.
PARIS, MONDAY EVENING.
The reports continue to be satisfactory from
Spain. The attempt at Barcelona was more de-
termined than the Government journals allow, but
it was nevertheless completely put down without
serious loss at either side. It is rumoured that
Saragossa would not persist in needless resistance
to the Queen's troops.
The Messager de Bayonne says :—" In conse-
quence of the events which have just taken place
at Madrid, the Spanish Government has sent word
by the telegraph to arrest the course of the
13,000,000 fr. forwarded last week from this place.
That amount of specie is to remain at Vittoria
until further orders."
A certain number of Spaniards of distinction
residing in Paris since the events of 1854 left yes-
terday for the Spanish frontier. Amongst others
is General Ortiga, formerly captain-general of one
of the provinces of Spain.
The Moniteur contains a letter addressed by the
Emperor to the Minister of Public Works on the
subject of the recent inundations. The Emperor
examines from an engineering point of view the
causes of the occasional overflow of the great rivers,
and recommends, in order to prevent the recur-
rence of such disasters, the barrage of the affluents
of those streams. The Minister is directed to
cause a technical survey of the river valleys, in
order to such constructions.
The Moniteur contains the official announcement
by the Russian Government of the establishment
of custom-houses at Perekop, Jenitchesk, and the
bridge of Tehanjar, with the view of preventing the
introduction by contraband of goods into Russia
Proper from the Crimea.
An Imperial decree promotes Col. Auger, bead
of the staff of the artillery of the army of the East,
to the rank of general of brigade iu the first sec-
tion of the general staff of the army.

THE DANUBIAN -PRINCIPALITIES.
On the 7th of July the Hospodar of Wallachia
addressed the following proclamation to the Ad'
ministrative Council of the Principality :---
" Rarely has a land suffered under such an ocieter.
rupted series of extraordinary misfortunes as our oral
country from 1849 up to the present day.
"During seven years, which were but one long crisis,
we were guided by a sense of duty, and our conscie
oti nce
tells us that we were never actuated by any other mve.
"A new era begins for our country from this dsf:,.
A. commissary of the Suzerain and the commissaries el
the great Powers will assemble in Bucharest,, in order
to learn the wishes and necessities of the nation, sad

secure for it a durable and happy future. During
period of transition a Provisional Administration ic"
manage the affairs of the country until the new °Wan°
sation which has been guaranteed to the Principality
shall be established. We, therefore, to-day resign t"
reigns of government, and leave the provisional adcni.
nistration of the country in the hands of the Extraf
dinary Administrative Council.
" His Excellency the Ban Manuel Balliano, President
of the Council, and the other chiefs of the departenentse
will carry on the business of their respective 11fillis*
tries according to their instructions, and with that ac:
tivity and zeal which the circumstances require, until
further orders are received from the Sublime Porte.
"We have still a duty to perform. We appeal to the
good feelings of our countrymen, and recommend to
them unanimity, for the welfare of our common father'
land imperatively demands that all personal consido.
rations and party interests should be sacrifioad.
'The present moment is of the utmost importano,
for the whole future of the country is dependent on it.
A quiet, dignified, and discreet behaviour will render
the most efficient service to our cause, and best coo's'
spond with the benevolent intentions of his Majesty the
Sultan and the generous views of the great power&
"STIRBEY:'
On the sth inst. the Hospodar left Bucharest, AS.
it was said, to inspect the upper districts of the
Principality, but on the 7th M. Pajenar, the direc"
tor of his Chancellerie, returned with the procla-
mation above given. Stirbey is now with his Wife
at the Convent of Bistritza.

RUSSIA.
BERLIN, July 19.—The controversy lately wen::
tioned as being carried on with great eagerness' -
the Russian press, and which seems to turn r
the most part on the question whether the Russ,,ill:i
left wing gave way prematurely at Alma, is spoken
of as the cause of Prince Monschikoff having ts'e-
himself off rather unexpectedly from St. peter"
burg, and repaired to his seat near Alesoen
Another conflict of much older date—viz./ t't,-
struggle between the so-called German and t'''t°
old Russian party—is also being carried en
now with renewed vigour, though under veil%
different auspices from those that obtained in
early stages of the' late. war. General Todtlebes
has been receiving an incessant series of ovati'l,l
in the capital and Helsingfors, and still more latelia
has been pre,,ented with a gold medal of the
of 500 silver roubles by the Engineering and Artl
lery Academy in St. Petersburg.
General Mouravieff himself seems to be earnestlY.

The Caucasus is continually mentioning the dePs..."
ture of reinforcements for the fortress of Groson'lrs
or for that of Vladicaucas ; the intention aPPe3.,i.
to be to isolate the Caucasians by a powerful

tart' cordon. The Invalide also contained a,

General of Engineers, for the successful ace° a
plishment of the task assigned him of erectiogo
series of fortresses along the two rivers, the
t

and the Jaxartes (Six-daja). By means of he.:
fortresses Russia now commands the water oeTi;
