BAYONNE, NOVEMBER 19.

Travellers daily arriving from the Peninsula, com-
plain bitterly of the great number of robbers who
infest the high roads, but otherwise tranquillity ge-
nerally prevails, especially in the great towns. The
most perfect union continues between the Cortes and
the Ministry.
The writer of a late article in the Journal des De-
bats seems not to be acquainted with Spain, or at
least he must have been misinformed ; for to believe
that modifications in the Constitution might be ob.:
tained by force of arms is an illusion. The new
system has struck too deep a root—the Revolution
must proceed in its course: the Liberals know that
they 'cannot go back, and that they are able to sur-
mount all obstacles to the consolidation of their work.
The invasion of the country by a great army, sup-
posing it could even reach Madrid, would increase
the disorder and anarchy, but not lead to the triumph
which is desired. Spain is not a rich nation, whose
people dread a foreign enemy: the great mass has
nothing to lose; naturally poor and miserable, they
are always ready to take up arms, and there is no
doubt that the present Government has sufficient
means to set them in motion.

It is but too true that the three Riscayan provinces
and Navarre would be glad to see an auxiliary army
which would restore them their privileges and com-
mercial immunities, which they enjoyed before the
Revolution: but this would have no essential influ-
ence in the interior, for these provinces have always
been considered as if they were a foreign country ;
tke rest ef the nation was jealous of the immunities
they enjoyed, and had frequently demanded the sup-
pression of them ; and the Andalusians, Castilliaus
and other people of the Peninsula, would desire no
better than to make war there respecting the places
which manifest attachment to the Constitution, such
as Bilboa, Vittoria, &c.

It appears certain, that if- the late Ministry Lad
proceeded boldly, in a constitutiohal manner, these
would not now be any insurgents in the three pro-
vinces, or in Navarre, notwithstanding the proteor
don they have received abroad ; for, in fact, what
have Equia, Qnesada, &c. hitherto done ? In all this
time, though they flatter themselves with having the
inhabitants in their favour, they have not been able td
possess themselves of a single point d'appui in the
country, except that miserable fortified house, Irati,
which they would have lost long ago, if Espinosa
had chosen to take it ; whereas the Constitutionalists,
though they cannot depend on the inhabits ins like
their adversaries, still maintain themselves with a
handful of brave men.

The St. Sebastian Gazette contains nothing interest-
ing ; it merely mentions the arrival at Vittoria ut
battalions from the interior.
• The Saragossa Gazette says that Mina, whose beat
quarters were at Agramont on the Bth, hoped to al*
proach Urgel in a few days. The company of Ali-
quelettes under • his command has lately been rein•
forced by 300 deserters from the army of Genera)
Erolles. The .same Journal says, that allbastra is
evacuated by the Trappist, and that the troops of
Vulasea again occupy the banks of the Silica from
Frar to Aridaguesa. Another battle was soon es.:
.pected on the banks of the Segre, in the territory of
°liana. It was 'supposed to be the plan of Lone'.
to draw Mina into his almost inaccessible positions
Arrest' and emigrations bays begun at SartigoPsa•

Three or four Canons are mentioned as being thrown
into
prison, and the Clubbists demand that the Arch-
bishop shall be deposed ; the authorities have referred
to the Government.

Jamaica Millers to the 6th ult. have arrived. The
Nouse of Assembly met on the Ist, being earlier than
the usual period, in order to take into consideration
yeasures for giving facility to the operation of the
new Acts for extending the trade and intercourse of
c•lonies. Mations for considering the distressed
,tax of tl:c island, and adopting strict retrenchment'
‘Allerercr practicable, were before the Assembly.—
Thc Lieutenant-Governor, HENRY CONRAN, Esq. in
!.j4 opening address to the Assembly, intimated his
;,,,Froaching retirement from that post.
