FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Journal des Debats.)
PUYCERDA, OCT: 11.-01.11" town, which up to
this day has been a prey 'to the most vivid alarm,
in consequence of the presence of Bozom at Baga, is
almost deserted ''Nearly the whole of the inhabi-
tants have fled, and carried off their moveables and
property. As, soon as the insurgents had quitted
Puycerda, a singular act of imprudence was com-
mitted by putting arms into the hands of the old
miquelets of La Cerdagne, of whom the greatest
part are violent Constitutionalists, and old soldiers,
who have not been included in any amnesty. These
bad subjects have caused us more mischief than the
insurgents,—they have committed every species of
disorder, and are now signalizing themselves by the
greatest excesses. They first pillaged the Custom-
house,_ and then went to 'assassinate the curate of
Villa-Loubent, whom they robbed of a large sum of
money. His house was stripped, and that eccle-
siastic only procured his safety by jumping out of a
window at the back of his house, and by flying with
All speed to the French village of Palau. It was
three of these miquelets who arrested and unrobed
the old alcaide without any form of trial, and after-
wards robbed him of all his money.
A brother-in-law of Bessieres, who had- been de-
clared chef-d'escadron by the insurgents, and who
comet uded the cavalry of the detachment of Villela,
being overtaken with wine and sleep, was captured
by these • miquelets, who, after treating him with
great inhumanity, consigned him to the prisons of
this town. It is to be presumed that he will be
shot on the arrival of the royal troops, if his throat is
not previously cut by the miquelets.
Such,is the fanaticism of the factious, that the
language of truth fails to, strike them. The royal
proclamation of the 24th of September, worthy as
it is of the majesty of the throne, and filled as it is
with indulgence for error, has been considered as an
act of insult to the real defenders of the monarchy
forced upon the King by the revolutionists who en-
slave him. Such is the substance of an address
made to the Catalonians by General Bozom, dated
the 4th inst., and entitled " Royal Army gifted
with the execution of Sovereign Decrees." Accord-
ing to the language of its author, the King is, at
Tarragona, as much the slave of the revolutionary
and masonic party, as he was at Lorenzo. "To
arms, Catalonians !" it says in the conclusion ; "you
are not making war upon the King, but upon his
unjust oppressors. War, then, interminable war to
all sectaries. I will never sheath my sword in its
scabbard until our monarch is free, until peace and
tranquillitY are restored to the kingdom, until the
masonic societies are destroyed, and until you can
say with me, then, and, for ever, " Long live Reli-
. gion ! Long live the absolute. King, and our com-
mon country !"—From the Echo du Midi of the
16th of October. - •

RO74E, OCT. 9.—On the night of the 3d and 4th
instant, M. l'Abbe Don Giovanni Almaras, formerly
confessor to her Majesty the Queen of Spain, was
taken into custody, and removed to the Castle of
St. Argelo. His papers were seized at the same
time, r:tid carried to the office of the general police.
The panish Consul was present at this seizure,
and it is asserted that a Spanish brig of war, now
at Civita Vecchia, is to convey him to Spain. It is
believed that a clandestine correspondence, which
he maintained with the insurgents of Catalonia, led
to this disagreeable catastrophe.

CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 28.—The negociations
of the three Ambassadors with the Divan still con-
tinue, and appear to promise a favourable result,
since the Porte has become convinced, by what has
passed at Navarino, that decisive measures will be
seriously carried into effect. The English Ambas-
sador has this day despatched a courier to his Go-
vernment to acquaint it with this new turn that the
affair has taken.—Augsburgh Gazette.
TRIESTE, OCT. B.—The captain of a ship, which
has arrived in eight days from Tchesme, confirms the
new* of the taking of Anatolico and Vassiladi, and
of the blockade of Missolonghi, by Lord Cochrane.
He also affirms, that six Greek ships of war have
appeared off Patras with the intention of destroying
15 Turkish vessels which are in that port, and that
two Greek squadrons of 40 sail, supposed to be
destined against Candia have been seen off Cerigo.
OCT. 9.—The steamboat from Corfu has arrived
here in three days.—Theletters which it has brought
say that Admiral Codrington continues to blockade
Navarino; that Lord Cochrane, after taking Anato-
lico and Vassiladi, is blockading Missolonghi ; that
the Perseverance steam-boat has advanced into the

LONDON.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 24, 1827.

Sir ANTHONY HART, the Vice-Chancellor,
is to be the new LORD CHANCELLOR of

IRELAND.

The Paris Papers of Sunday, and the Gazette
de France dated Monday morning, reached us
last night. The latter copies from the Augsburgh
Gazette a paragraph dated Constantinople, Sept.
28, which states that the negociations of the
three Ambassadors with the Divan still continued,
and appeared to promise a favourable result, since
the Porte had become convinced, by what had
passed at Navarino, that decisive measures will be
seriously carried into effect. It adds that the
English Ambassador had that day despatched a
courier to his Government to acquaint it with
this new turn which the affair had taken. If this
be so the Courier ought to be here immediately.
An article from Trieste, under date of the
Bth inst., confirms the capture of Anatolico and
Vassiladi, and the blockade of Missolonghi, by
Lord COCHRANE, and a further article from thence
dated the 9th, states, that the steam boat from
Corfu had arrived in three days, bringing letters
which mention that Rear Admiral Sir EDWARD
CODRINGTON still blockaded Navarino, and that
IBRAHIM remained inactive.

The intelligence from Spain continues of the
same character. FERDINAND has issued some
additional Proclamations, requiring lists of the
inhabitants of different districts who joined the
Rebels, and of those who have withdrawn from
the Insurgent Standard—prohibiting 'the mo-
lestation of those who have accepted the amnesty—
and regulating the surrender and passing home of
those still willing to return to their allegiance.
Extracts of the Papers are given in another
column.

By the arrival of the Stanmer, with a mail
from Lisbon,. Gazettes to. the 14th instant were
received last night. They contain a Copy of the
Decree of the Emperor DON PEDRO, appoint-

ing DON MIGUEL Regent of Portugal, which
he is to govern conformably with the Constitu-
tional Charter. It was expected at Lisbon that
the new REGENT would return to Portugal by
way of France and England. The following are
extracts of the papers :
LiszoN, OCT. 9.—By the ship Canoes, which entered
the port of Lisbon on the Bth of this month, her Serene
Highness the Infanta Regent received a letter from her
august brother, Don Pedro IV., in which his Majesty
transmits to her Highness a copy of the Decree by which
he has thought fit to appoint his' Serene Highness the In-
fant Don Miguel his Lieutenant in the Regency of these
Kingdoms in the following form :
