We have received to-day the following accounts
from Bayonne :

BAYONNE, SEPTEMBER 2.

By the mail from Madrid we have letters to the
29th ult. The army courier has not arrived, and we
know not whether he has been stopped on the way,
like the preceding.
The capital enjoys tranquillity, though everybody
is, of course, very anxious respecting the events be-
fore Cadiz. The Duke of Angouleme, who is fully
sensible of the importance of terminating the war as
speedily as.possible (which may be said to be con-
centrated before Cadiz), is collecting all the force
he possibly can, both by sea and land. Several ships
of war have already arrived from the Mediterranean,
and ten frigates are expected.
The troops which left Madrid with the Prince, are
now at Port St. Marie (or, at least, on the point of
arriving there) ; and Generals Beaumont and Moli-
tor are expected here.
The Royal Family continued to enjoy good health•
General Ziiyas has been succeeded in his command
by General Riego, who arrived at Malaga on the
17th ult. Zayas takes the command of the army in
Estra m ad u ra.

The roads.in several parts of Spain are very un-
safe : at St. Clementi (Cuenca) the couriers, with let-
ters, have been stopped ; and couriers have been ar-
rested by the band of Chaleco, which was said to
have submitted, but it seems it is divided into several
small troops.

A pretty considerable Guerilla, commanded by
Castro, has appeared near Viersa. The Ex-Deputy
Barros has armed a flotilla, and the brother of the
Marquis of Albendana has done the same. These
.
two flotillas have committed various depredations
along the coasts. An account from Zalamea de
Serana (Estramadura) says, that the Constitutional
troops ,in that province amount to 4000 infantry
and 1000 cavalry, that a conspiracy has been disco-
vered at Aldeanueva for the purpose of re-establish-
ing the Constitution, and that 15,000 cartridges were
seized in the houses of various individuals. We find,
from the capitulation of Corunna, that most of the
leaders in that place, especially Campillo and the
Pastor, are prisoners of war ; from which it is inferred
that they declined acknowledging the Regency at
Madrid. We expect them to be .brought here on
board of a French frigate. All the gunners belong.
ing to the marine and the militia, who, with few ex-
ceptions, are Biscayans and Navarrese, have asked
and obtained leave to return to their homes.

The last letters from Pampeluna announce that the,
trenches were opened, and that the firing was to begin
immediately. There arc 8000 troops before the town;
but especially. a most formidable train of artillery,
which it seems intended to employ in burning
town, in order to hasten, the surrender : if it should'
be necessary to proceed to this extremity, • several
mercantile houses in Bayonne will suffer very severe
locses. It is said that the troops of the Faith that we: e
before Pampeluna
.have been removed, and a posi-
tion assigned them five leagues in the rear of the be=
sieging army. It is supposed that their discipline is
not so strict as that of the French troops. The re-
storing the prisoners to liberty, according to the De
tree of Audujav, displeases many of the Spanisl.
Royalists, especially the Priests and Mouks, soa.e of

whom have not been ashamed to cry a Death to the
French !—Death to the traitors r

Five companies of artillery ate ready to embaßk
here to join the army before Cadiz, and will certawy
sail the day after to-morrow.

The Duke of YORK arrived in town on Mon*

A lovely and fascinating young Lady, rf high ous.
nexions, eloped from her friends, who teside a hurt
distance from this city, a few days since. With a mar•
ried man, late a Captain of Dragoons.—Bristol Gas.

Letters from Tyrol state, that upon the 14th of
August a tremendous storm, which was attended oith
rain and hail, made serious havoc in the Pusterthal.
The two villages of Mohler and Tolbach particularly
suffered; and in the latter no less than forty houses
were flooded to the first story.
A miner was killed last week in Nanjeles mine, and
another so bruised as to be de,paired of, at Wheal
Unity ; and both by too much indifference to danger'
when blasting rocks with gunpowder.
Senna has been successfully cultivated at Senegal
The specimens of this plant have been submitted to
the Council of Health at Brest, Toulon, and Macho`
fort, and the result is favourable to the Senegal sena;
when used as an ordinary purgative.—Paris Paper.
The Penitentiary at Richmond, in Virginia, on the
erection of which 150,000 dollars had been expended
was destroyed by tire on the night of the Bth ult. No
lives were lost, but as many of the prisoners confine
in solitary cells were at first overlooked in the conf
sion, they were with great difficulty saved.
DEATH FROM FIGHTING.—An Inquest was held
on Monday last, at Bromsgrove, on the body of a
man named Levi Brown, who was killed on the Sa•

turday night previous, in a pugilistic combat with
James Sandford, when, after a patient investigatios
of all the circufnstances, the Jury returned a verdict
of Manslaughter against Sandford, and also against
W. Kay and R. Bing, the two seconds, and they were
all committed to take their trials at next Lent Assize.
HAYMARKET THEATRE.—Last night, a Farce was
produced at this House, entitled The Great Unknowl,
which aimed principally at the ridicule of the (mi.
ful system of Gall and his disciples, mired up with
some badly conceived eguivogue on the mysteriess
appellation and works of the Scotch Novelist; but
the whole wanted stamina, and of necessity failed.
Mr. Samuel Davis, who for many years filled the
situation of principal Turnkey of Newgate, and was
well known for his humanity to the prisoners (lately
appointed Conductor of the City Police), has, within
these few days, been appointed chief Turnkey at the
King's Bench Prison.
APPRIHRNSION Or HOUBEEIREAKKRS.—ThisMOrr-
ing, on the arrival of the Woodford coach at the
Royal Exchange, a patrol from Woodford rode up,
and secured two out of four outside passengers ; the
other two made their escape through Pope's•head
Alley :but one of them, in his flight, dropped a valu-
able gold watch, which was picked up by Mr. Bar-
nard, the proprietor of the coach. The two apps
hended were taken to the Mansion-house. On search-
ing them, upwards of 151. in money was found on
them. It appears that a house at Loughton, unr
Woodford, was broken open early this morning, and
property to a large amount stolen. From'circup-
stances which transpired, these fellows were suspect-
ed, and one of the Woodford patrol immetlial
followed the coach, and arrived before they had get
off the roof.

PROJECT ON PROJECT.—On reading a proposal ia
a provincial Print, for " dispatching to Lancsah
Sound, in search of Caplan, Parry, some of the Whakn
lately returned from Davi:** Straits:"
What ! can't you conceive how a ship but just come
" From Davis's Straits," may, with comforts from kW.
Return, and reach Pamir, or frozen or floating?
And think you indeed the projector is dewing
Yon forget, Sir, "the Bottle" arrived but last week,
Spine of storms and of icebergs, sans damage or halt $
And, surely, by simply retracing its track,
The D 31114 that came, will as safely go back
As into a nut,
Ohl Homer they put,
Or, as a lent lot of the wit of our maims.
Was packed in a leak, by deep coljetureoft,
So, into our bettie, the " Wheltr" shall slide.
And, safe under cork, brave the storm and the tides
The Wildgoose projector shall pilot the whole,
And, like witch on A MotStOstick, asil-round the NCI
