twat does not accompany the Knto to Madrid. The'
Journal des Dcbats only says, that he will nut enter the
Spanish capital. The arrest of BALLASTEROS (noim-
probable event certainly) is positively stated to have
taken place. In another part of our Paper we have
given an article from the French Papers respecting his
army, by which it would appear they at least are not so
ready to submit to the French or the Men of the Faith.
The only official article the Aloniteur of Saturday
contains, is an account of the audience given by his
MAJESTY on the preceding day to the Municipal Body
of Paris: when Comte CHABROL addressed the KING

in a speech in which he congratulated his MAJESTY on
the success of his arms, when victor y-adorned his brows
with the laurel and the olive. The speech, which was
quite of an Ultra-loyal character, concluded by asking
leave to give a fete to the Duc d'Aziooucems and his
compinions in aims on their return. The KING re-
plied in the following terms :
$ll am extiensely sensible of the sentiments expressed
by my goad City of Paris. They could not have given
me a greater mark of attachment, than by offering a fete
worthy of him whom I love to call my son—to him abr.,/
is the glory of France and the joy of my old age ; and al-
though I may not be present, my heart will be with you:.
The following is the letter to which we have alluded'
FROM OUR OWN CORR2SPONDENT.
" CALAIS, OCTOSISS 19.

gi A Gentleman arrived here, by Express, brings the
news that Ballasteros is arrested by order of Ferdinand'
and that the King and the Duke D'Angeuleme agree
on no point of importance whatever. Hence it is, that
the Duke did not accompany his Majesty to Madrid,.,
having positively refused that honour. It was the Duke's
intention to have staid some time in Spain, to organize
a civil Government, and prevent the re-action of the
Ultras; but it appears that all his hopes
.that misfor-
tune would have taught the King lessons of prudence
are at an end, and he will return to Paris a month ear

Her than he intended. The conduct.of the Duke, on
this occasion, is much praised ; and, it is assured, that
he told Ferdinand, in plain terms, that if his Majesty
sanctioned acts of violence and oppression, and perse-
cuted those who had acted only in virtue of his autho-
rity, that he would withdraw the aid of France, and let
events take their course. In the meantime, the French
garrison of Cadiz is reinforced, and, it is to be pre.
sumed, that it is intended to retain possession of it : a
hint of this kind has already been thrown out inL'Etoile."

liberation of the Bing of Spain. This happy news was
received with the greatest delight, and spread rapidly;
each person being anxious to announce it to his neigh-
bours. It was known at the same time at Jonquera and
Lampourdan ; and the event has been celebrated by
fetes and public prayers.

MATARO, OCTOBER 15.

After the reception of a dispatch from the Major-
General for the Duke de Cornegliano, the Marshal set
off for Soria, which is near Barcelona. The negocia-
tions have begun ; _but the Marshal, to bring the busi-
ness to a speedy conclusion, has caused the heavy artil-
lery to advance. From Soria the Marshal went to Ba•
dalona, one league and a half from Barcelona. It is
generally thought that the sortie which took place yes-
terday will be the last.
