FRONTIFX.S 0 CATALONIA, SEPT. S.—Absent for
some time from his Government of Mahn-0, on ac-
s..ount of his health, General Romagosa has gone to
joist the Agraviados. He had written to his dele-
gate, it is said, that he was charged with an import-
ant mission, for the service of the King. His de-
fection has caused great surprise. General Romi:gosa
had indeed gained in the Army of the Faith a
splendid political and military reputation. Placed at
the head of one of the first Governments- Cata-
lonia, it was not suspecte4.,tkat he had any cause for
discontent. He passed for a Man of reflection, pru-
dent in council, as well as calm and decisive in action.
On the 3d instant, at midnight, the insurgents en-
tered Matsro, to the number of 400 or 500 infantry,
with a detachment of cavalry, and left it the next day
at noon, taking the road to Temtpa, in that pro-
vince, a city celebrated for its woollen-manufactures.
They committed no violence. Their statement was
that they merely halted there as friends.
Incredible efforts have been made all at once to
fortify the city of Manresa, but they consider an in-
fallible means of defence to be furnished by the
water-conrse to Llobregat, which, in a desperate
ease of attack, could be made to inundate the sur-
rounding plain. The corps of Agraviados, who act
separately in the Lampottrdan, have had orders to
unite at Manresa.

Don Juan Carrera, Alcalde Mayor of Olot, had
been forced to take refuge at Lamanera, a commune
on the txtrerne frontier, in the arrondissement of
Cerat. This magistrate was pi ocaeding to Barce-
lona. On arriving at Vich, ho was forted to retro-
grade, that city being already in the power of the
Agraviados. During his journey the town of Olot
was likewise occupied by the insurgents ; he was,
therefore, compelled to retire into France.
PARIS, SHPT. 17.—Mr. Lamb, Ambassador from
his Britannic Majesty to Spain, brig obtained leave
of absence, which he has gone to spend in England.
He was almost the only Minister of the diplomatic
corps at Madrid who had not claimed, during a long
period, some relaxation of this kind. His depar-
ture seems to indicate that the negotiations between
Spain and Portugal have reached their termination.
We have just seen a letter from Germany, which
requests us to contradict the news of the shipwreck
and death of Madame Catalan', as announced in
the German Papers.

MADRID, 'I3I)T. B.—The events in Catalonia, and
the emigration of N. Ttecacho to Portugal, are the
two events wt:ich are most spoken of to-day.
With re;pect to that which concerns Catalonia,
within these two or three days an officer arrived
post; With despatehes from M. do Campo Sagrado,
for the Government.. Immediately afterwards the
Ministers held a Council, which continued sitting
during many hours. According to the details which
M. tie Campo Sagrado gave of what had taken place
at Manresa, it appears that it was a popular insur-
rection which gave the rebels possession of that
city. The troops of Carajol were not there at the
moment of the revolt. The Governor of the city,
M. Bess, having g!Me out during the night, with a
patrol of Royalist Volunteers, to traverse the streets
of Manresa, met another patrol. of the same corps,
which, after having answered the " Who goes there,!'
joined the men whom he commanded, and seised
him, as they did also M. Conti, Lieutenant-Colonel
of the second regiment of the Line, a party from
which was then in the city. They 'sounded after-
wards the tocsin, and the firing commenced
against the troops, whom one of the com-
manders of the above-mentioned regiment had assem-
bled in the square. The firing continued during two
hours, till the commandant received an order, which
the rebels obliged Lieutenant-Colo»el Conti to write,
and which required the soldiers to lay down their
arms. The Commandant thought it his duty to
obey. Shortly afterwards they apprised Carajol of
that which had taken place, and this chief of the
party arrived immediately, and occupied the square.
Many officers of the second regiment are implMated
in the plot. In the same despatch M. de Campo
Sagrado gave likewise the details of the taking of
other places which bad recently fallen into the hands
of the rebels.

With respect to M. Recacho, when he had arrived
at Melgar de Abajo, he received a letter from one of
his friends at Oviedo, which made him acquainted
with the proceedings of his enemies. A public
movement was likely to occur on his arrival, and at
that moment of disorder it was difficult to foresee to
what excesses against his person the disaffected might
proceed. According to these advices, vengeance
was so much more to be dreaded, as the commotions
were not excited by individuals without influence
and without power. Such an intimation was not to
be neglected. M. Recacho profited from it ; and
ordering his escort to march forward, he mounted
his horse, and, conducted by two or three guides, he
succeeded in passing the frontiers, - and entering
Braganca. It is a positive fact that M. Recacho
wrote a letter to the King, dated Aug. 9-J., in which
he explained to him the motives which compelled
him to expatriate himself. It is nevertheless certain
that in another letter, dated the 27th, he stated that
he would surrender himself at Oporto, where it was
his intention to embark for Franco.

Yesterday there arrived here, express from 1.011-
dOll, to the English Ambassador, a messenger named
Tuper. He proceeded immediately to the Royal
residence, where Mr. Lamb then was.
A courier has arrived from Valencia, who is the
bearer of despatches from General Longa. It ap-
pears that the Royalist volunteers have attempted
to excite disorders in that city,but have been unable
to succeed. Two bands; of the factious, organised
like those of Catalonia, have appeared in the neigh-
bourhood of Alicant. We have learned, also, from
the report of the Brigadier Don Pedro Alcantara
Muzo, Secretary to the General Inspector of Pro-
vincial Militia, and Chief of the Staff Major of the
Provincial Royal Guard of the Militia, that, on re-
turning from the kingdom of Murcia, he was twice
made a prisoner on the way by two bands of rebels;
he was even bound with cords by one of them, for a
considerable time.
Letters from Serragossa state, that a detachment
of cavalry, of ahout 60 men, which was cantoned in
a village, had deserted, and gone over to the rebels.
It
was necessary to send immediately another de-
tachment to occupy the same post. It is stated also
that the 7th Regiment of Light Cavalry, being on
its march for Catalonia, had mutinied on the way,
but that the firmness of one of the officers of that
regiment had arrested the sedition on its commence-
ment. This event proves that little confidence can
be placed in the troops which may be sent to Cata-
lonia to put down the revolt.
MADRID, SEPT. 6.—Despatches from Barcelona
have been received by the Minister of War this
afternoon, which announce that the main body of the
insurgents were marching on Lerida and Tortosa ;
and, it is added, have such numerous partisans in the
two cities, that it is impossible that they shall not
shortly fall into their power, if the troops of the
King do not march to the succour of those places.
These letters also give a long list of towns and
villages, from which the Royalist volunteers have
gone over to the insurgents. They estimate at
3,000 the number of the volunteers who are already
in the ranks of the Carliste.
Some small detachments of the troops of the line
have likewise joined them ; but the most remark-
able defection is, that of a regiment Of cavalry which

ST. PETRltsweßa,
Divan of Constantin: E.
appears that the
pil s"
e, according w custom, bus

singularly exaggerated a disadvantage experienced
by our cavalry in the environs of Erivan. The fact
is, that the scarcity of forage beyond the Araxis, and
the difficulty of transporting it from the left. bank,
has reduced our cossacks to.a state of weakness,' of
which the 'Persians availed themselves for a moment;
-hut the Adjutant-General Paskewita having imme-
diately marched upon them. With a corps of replar
troops, the former promptly retired:
PARIS, SEPT. 18.—It is announced that M. de
Schones, a counsellor in the Royal Court of Paris,
was acensed on the* 12th of this month, before. the
Court of Cassation, by virtue of article 26 of the
law of April 20, 1810.-111onitettr.
A fire, which raged with almost unparallelled fury,
broke out on the 9th of this month in the town of
the commune of Cambon, canton of Besse. A few
sparks from a smith's forge, carried by the wind to
the thatched roof of his dwelling, occasioned, in a
few minutes; the destruction of the Tillage. 'ln fact,
except the modest abode of the clergyman, which.
alone was covered with tiles, the church, the steeple
of which, though quite new, was damaged a little,
sixty houses were consumed by the flames, with all
the furniture, provisions, corn, hay, &c., in short,
with the subsistence of the inhabitants for a whole
year. Nobody perished in this dreadful disaster.
