THE SPANISH INSURRECTION.

(Front the Second Edition of the Morning Pest.)
PARIS, THURSDAY, 9 A.M.

The Moniteur says :

" The last news from BarcQlona announce that
the conflict there was very keen, but that the
success of the Queen's troops may be considered
is secured. The fire lasted on the 18th from 5
in the evening till midnight ; on the 19th it was
resumed from the morning till 8 p.m. ; on the
20th it lasted the whole day ; on the 21st, from
morning till 5 p.m.

" On this last day, the insurgents having been

lriven from the streets of the Union, and from
the Rue Neuve of the Rambla, and from the Hos--

pital de la Junquera, their principal positions,
betook themselves to the country. They were
pursued thither by the cavalry, which sabred
them. Gerona and La Junquera are still in a

date of insurrection. Tranquillity prevails at
Figueras. The garrison is ready to fire on the

,ceurrenee of the slightest movement.

" It is thought that the victory obtained at Bar-
celona will arrest the other movements of

Catalonia."

BERLIN, JULY 22.

ion is remarked amongst the Kurds of Upper

Armenia.

A Russian army, under the command of Gene-
ral Thruleff, has taken up a position along the

rontier.

The Armenian Archbishop of Karapet has ex.

SPAIN.

DEPARTURE OF FRENCH TROOPS FOR
THE SPANISH FRONTIER.

BOULOGNE, July 23.—The division encamped at
Wimereux is under orders to leave to-day en route
for the Spanish frontier. It consists mainly of
Chasseurs. The movement is doubtless in conse-
quence of the threatening aspect of affairs in the
Peninsula. The camp huts, &c., are to be sold,
according to present arrangements. Marshal Bara-
guay d'Hilliers wishes to have them preserved,
thinking they may be useful next year for exercis-
ing the troops. The camp of Honvault will be dis-
persed, it is expected, in October.
The Semaphore de Marseille, of July 21, says :
It is announced that a corps of observation is about
to be formed on the Pyrenean frontier. A "cer-
tain number of regiments" have been ordered to
march towards the neighbouring departments. The
37th regiment of the line left this town on Satur-
day for Montpelier, where it will, replace troops
that are going to the frontier.
[The above shows the importance of the move-
ment, and the insincerity of the statement of the
Constitutionnel, that a single brigade was all that
would be sent.]
The .Yieole of yesterday has this from a private
correspondent in London :
" We have received this instant the following
information, which comes to us from a source gene-
rally well informed.
" The English government yesterday received a
despatch from Mr. Otway, who, in Lord Howden's
ab'sence, represents England at Madrid. This
lespatch was very important, and according to
what is said to-night it left the impression that
Marshal O'Donnell's situation was less favourable
:.ban had been supposed.
"In consequence of this despatch, orders were
sent by telegraph to Lord Howden, whatever
night be his state of health, to return instantly to
ilia post, passing by way of S'aragossa ; and he was
informed that he should there receive despatches
from his government, as well as despatches from
4r. Otway."
Prince Louis Lucien Bonaparte arrived at
Bayonne on Saturday, and after a few hours'
,tay left for Spain. The civil and military autho-
r•it.ies of Irun being informed of his expected arri-
val, awaited him at the gates of the town in official
costume. The Prince, born on Jan. 4, 1813, is
son of Lucien, brother of Napoleon I.
Marshal Narvaez also also arrived on Saturday
At Bayonne, with the intention of offering his ser-
vices to the Queen of Spain. In place of going
forward, he has despatched an aide-de-camp with a
letter to her Majesty, stating that he will await
her orders either to go forward to Madrid or to re-
turn to Paris.
" Marshal Narvaez," says the Assemblee Na-
tionale, " has been appointed ambassador of
Spain at Paris, in the place of M. Olozaga. We
do not know if the Marshal will accept the high
Functions conferred on him, butq should he do so,
we may be satisfied that the policy of the new
government will be entirely and exclusively con-
servative."

General Prim is now at Marseilles. It was
believed there that he intended to embark from
that port to return to Valencia, of which province
he was captain-general, but from the functions of
which post he has been relieved by the decree
which, as has been mentioned, appeared in the
Madrid Gazette of the 17th.
The .Pays contains the following :—" The insur-
rection of Aragon is confined to the chief town ( f
the province. It is said that the Government, at
the last council, decided that the most stringent
measures should be adopted to put down the revolt.
Orders were consequently given to that effect to
General Dulce, who has been appointed Captain-
General of Aragon in the room of General Falcon.
He is to march on Saragossa with 42,000 men, fur-
nished in part by the garrison of Madrid, and two
siege trains. He will take possession of the posi-
tions of Monte Terrero and the fort of Aljuferta,
commanding the town, and which are only de-
fended by a small force. He will then invest
the city, and summon the insurgents to sur-
render, and on their refusal he will open a
tire from the forts. No doubt is entertained
at Madrid of the success of this plan. General
Falcon bad in Saragossa a force of only 3,000
men and some battalions of militia. One of the
generals who was under his orders remained faith-
ful to the Queen, and retired into the country at.
the bead of 1,500 men. In presence of these facts,
he inhabitants of Saragossa, not being supported
from without, must submit. General Dulce, under
all circumstances, has orders not to come to any
engagement in the town, but to act with his artil-
lery. General Armero, Captain General of Valla-
dolid, ha. just published a tresh proclamation, the
severity of which is warranted by the state of anar-
chy which exists in that city. Every act of in-
ceudiarism,' he says, wherever it may be commit-
ted, will be punished with death ; the persons
caught in flagrante delicto will be executed the
moment their iudividuality shall have been proved,
and they will merely have a respite of three hours
allowed them to receive the consolations of re-
"
'Tee Madrid papers of the 19th, due' this morn-
ing, have not reached us, but a private letter of
the same date says spartero is still here, of
his own free will. The trial by court-martial of the
ex-Minister Lujan is a mere invention. Upwards
of 150 persons arrested at the Post-office with arms
in their hands have beeu set at liberty ; these still
in custody are common offenders. The official ac-
count of the losses of the troops is as follows :
killed, 6 officers and 32 privates ; wounded, 19
officers and 202 privates; missing, 2 privates. There
were six horses killed and 16 wounded. The loss
of the National Guard is not exactly known. The
_ _

last accounts from Aragon would- appear to be
rather unfavourable, as largo forces have been di-
rected from every quarter against that province.
From Saragossa we learn that Gen. Falcon has seen
part of the trQops under his command desert from
him. Murcia has declared against the Govern-
ment, but that province inspires but little uneasi-
ness. There are still great changes being made
among the Government functionaries. The
policy of the present Government may be stated
as follows :-1. No bloodshed for mere political
punishment. Capital punishment to be reserved
for common crimes committed under the cloak of
political opinions. 2. Conciliation and toleration.
3. Moderate Progressists not to be excluded from
public functions. 4. The constitution to be pub-
lished. 5. The Constituent Cortes to be dissolved,
and ordinary Cortes convoked. 6. The National
Guard to be re-organised on a reduced scale. 7.
Political prosecutions brought before the Cortes
against previous governments and certain persons
connected with them to be put a stop to. 8.
Endeavours to obtain the modification of some
articles of the constitution, and certain adminis• •

tialive.—principle,,. Lastly, the same aclininistra•
tine system as before to be followed."

FRANCE.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
" Nothing is talked of at Ptutnbieres," says the
rourrier des Vosges, " but the benefits which the
Emperor is continually spreading around him, and
which will perpetuate the remembrance of his so-
journ in our mountains. Touched with the po-
verty of the communes near Plombieres, and par-
ticularly of those of Clerjus and Bellefontaine, his
Majesty lately sent for their mayors, and en-
tered into an examination with them as to the
best means to be adDpted to effectually assist the
poorer elapses. After a long conference, the
Emperor decided that a Bureau de Bienfaisance
should be created in each of the communes, and
gave to each of the mayors a sum of 10,000 f. for
the execution of this plan.

AUSTRIA.
We learn from Vienna that the greatest alarm
prevails there lest the Spanish insurrection should
produce a ferment in Italy. An intention to for-
tify Parma is talked of. Count Crenneville, the
Commandant of the Austrian troops at Parma, is
to be replaced by General Baumgartner, a -man of
more energy. Hitherto, it has been said that
Count Crenneville's successor was to be chosen
for his conciliatory qualities. A. semi-official
version of the Note recently addressed by the
Austrian Government to the Neapolitan re-
presents it as more threatening than was supposed.
The note states that, in consequence of the recep-
tion given by Naples to the representations of the
Western powers, Austria will hold herself passive
whatever may occur.

A. letter from Vienna, in the Augsburg Gazette,
states that several changes are in contemplation
among the superior functionaries of the Ministry of
Finance. These changes are said to be connected
with the important modifications which have been
recently introduced into the financial administra-
tion of Austria. The departure of Prince Paul
Esterhazy for Moscow is fixed for the 23d inst.

THE TWO SICILIES.
NAPLES, July 17th—The walls of Naples have
been again placarded, and the following proclama-
tion has been most extensively circulated through-
out the capital and the provinces. It runs as
follows :

Neapolitans,—Your cruel and painful sufferings have
been so long prolonged, and have been supported with so
much dignity, as to have awakened the sympathy of the di-
plomacyof Europe. Yet, comparatively speaking, she has
not known, nor can she know, buten infinitely small part of
what you suffer. Now that a prosperous breeze begins to
inspire us with the hope that the triumph of justice and
legality is not far distant ; now that by visible signs the
head of God weighs heavily on perjured administrations,
the dishonour of the people confided to them, we turn to
you with that same serenity of mind which has never de-
serted us amidst the vicissitudes of fortune, or the pre-
dominance of passions hostile to the most holy prin.
ciples. The time is not far distant, perhaps, when this
your country will be the theatre of new events—attend
them with the same dignified and noble tranquillity of
which up to the present time you have given such splendid
proofs. When circumstances shall be changed, show that
you are not like slaves who have broken your chains, but
free men, who feel all the value of their liberty, who are
conscious of their rights, who desire the reign of legality
and justice, and do not run madly through the regions of
Utopia, and of vain fantasies. Do not dissemble from
yourselves a single one of your past errors, and by not dis-
sembling them you will give the surest pledge that they will
not be repeated. Be united in the one desire fora constitu-
tional legality, and for an administration which will main
tain it intact and inviolate. Respect the rights of all. Be
not unjust towards those who have preserved their devo-
tion to the duties of military discipline—who, no less than
you, have execrated the general injueti.•e, and who deserve
for many reasons your affection and esteem. The honour
of our common country is specially confided to their
hands; and under a juster and more enlightened govern-
ment, rivals of their companions in Piedmont, who have
galled for the Italian cause the sympathies of Enrope,
they will not shrink from preserving it lucent laminate
against the ambition of foreign arms. Union and tran-
quillity ! this is what we shall never cease to urge upon
you, and leave to your enemies the remorse o. hiving
trampled on the work of God, and that vindictive fury
which is the surest indication of their own weakness
Thus only shall we be able to promise that God will be
with us, and to hope for the triumph of a cause which is
undoubtedly the most holy and the most just.

THE PENINSULAR MAILS.
SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY M.RNING.
By the Peninsular and Oriental Company's
steam-ship Tagus, Captain Curistian, with the
Peninsular mails, we have dat s from Gibraltar,
July 15th ; Cadiz, 16th ; Lisbon, 19th ; Vigo and
Oporto, 20th.

The Tagus brings 77 passengers, 2,2421. specie,
and the usual cargo.
The mail steamer Madrid arrived at Vigo from
Southampton, with the outward Peninsular mail,
on the 20th inst.

The French man-of-war Prince Jerome was at
Lisbon when the Tagus left.
The King of Portugal had visited the ship, on
board of which he met the British, French, and
Russian Ministers.

;The Lisbon exchanges at three months are quoted
this mail at 54 on London, with a scarcity of paper;
Hamburg 481, Amsterdam 43/, Geneva 518, and
Paris 522 ; paper generally being unequal to the
demand.

The Stock market was firm, with few sellers, at
431 to 44 for Three per Cents. ; Bank of Portugal
Shares, 493 to 495 milreis each, ex dividend ; and
Oporto Bank Shares, 19 to 20 per cent. p'rem.
The Cortes was to close on the 20th inst. Cho-
lera had decreased. The Marchioness De Ribeira
died from the disease on the 19th.
