About ten o'clock thislitetiing the New Spanish Loan made
its appearance, which eared some bustle in the above mulct.
TM conditions are similar to those of the last Spanish Loan, ex-
cept that it appears under the title of Spanish Scrip, and 20 per
cent. must be deposited immediately. Mr. HALDICIIAND Is the
Contractor, and it bore a premium of 86 per cent. on its coming
into the market. Most of the business doing Os morning is
in the Spanish Roods, both Old and New Snip, which seems to
be eagerly sought after. There is a report this moment, that
she Lbbon Marius brought over the Portuguese Loan, and it
is rumoured that Messrs. Baum, and Co. are the Contractors.
In all other foreign securities the market remains steady.

We have received the French Papers of Wednes-
day, by the regular Mail, and, by an extraordinary
conveyance, the Pilote of Thursday evening has also
come to hand. The Duke -of WELLINGTON, in the
dress of an Austrian Field Marshal, attended a re-
view of the troops of the gall ison of Vienna, previous
to his setting out for Verona. The King of PRUSSIA
has appointed his eldest son, with full powers, to
govern during his absence from his dominions, which,
it is said, will be for some months.

The Spanish insurrection seems now to be fast
hastening to its close. The Journal de Toulouse says,
the Royalists of Catalonia are in a cruel position.—
MINA was advancing on Urgel, while ZARCO DEL
VALLE was matching on the Conque de Tremp, and
bilLaws on Olot, and a speedy hauls, decisive of the
fate of the Defenders of the Faith, %Ls inevitable.
An account is given of a remarkable correspond-
ence between the Baron d'tnou.is and Don Ramon
GAYAN, Governor of Cardona. The Baron, by way
of inducing him to surrender the fortress, and to ac-
cept his terms, informs him, that in the course of the
month, seventy five thousand French would enter Spain
at three different points. The answer of Don Ramon
v►as such as became a good citizen and brave soldier.
He tells him, " that if European fanaticism and ty-
ranny should form a conspiracy against them, they
would be able to withstand it arthey did in the war
of independence ;" and he reproaches him with dis-
gracing himself by joining men who make religion a
cover for the perpetration of crime, and of whom the
most have suffered punishment for their misdeeds
both before and since the Revolution.
The account of the brilliant victory gained by
General Esernosa over the Army of the Faith, which
'we announced in the STAR of yesterday, is confirmed.
A letter from Bayonne, in the Journal de Paris, says
it was a very sanguinary contest. The Insurgents,
commanded by ARADONDO, amounted to 1,500 or
I,rloo men, while General ESPINOSA, who com-
manded the Constitutional forces, had only five or
600. The latter kept the Army of the Faith in check
until they were reinforced, when they entirely routed
the Insurgents, and took 200 prisoners.
CUARLES O'DONNELL is appointed General-in-
Chief of the Insurgents in the north of Spain. The
French still continue to pour into Bayonne the muni-
tions of war. Forty-five thousand muskets had been
sent, and preparations were making for a camp in
the neighbourhood. This cannot be for self-defence,
as Spain would not think of attacking France; but it
is no doubt to give countenance, if not direct 'assist-
ance, to the rebels in Spain.
The evidence of a design to invade Spain, to co-
operate with the Spanish insurgents, is but too clear ;
and, if Lord LONDONDERRY had lived, the attempt
would no doubt have been made. The immense pre-
parations, however, have been thrown away ; the
Defenders of the Faith must now be left to their fate;
• and bitter reproaches they will no doubt vent against
the French Government and the Holy Allies, who
have deserted them.
The Journal de Toulouse gives the following nests
from Spain :—" The Royalists of Catalonia are in a
cruel situation. The Rei,-acy has established a line
of defence from Seu to Puycerda. A part of the
"coops scattered through the province is marching on,
this point. The army of Mina is advancing towards
plain of Urgel, while ZARCO DEL VALLE is ap-
proaching from the side of the Conque de Tremp,
MILAN& is marching on Olot. They write from
.gel of the sth—' Blood will soon be shed ; all the
