EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

An Express tiorn Paris has brought us this fore-
noon the Papers of Monday. The extracts which we
subjoin, from the Constitutionnel, throw a good deal
of light on the recent movements of MINA, and com-
pletely falsify all that is said about this enterprizing
General in the Government Papers.

• FROM THE CONSTITUTIONNEL.
PERPIG:sIAN, MAY 10.
PRIVATE CORELSPONDEFCE.

General Donnadieu entered Vich on the 6th, after
merely a slight skirmish in the wood of Tosca, be-
tween Olot and Laspzesas, where we had SO wounded.
The enemy continuing their i etreat, they have
passed the bridge of Roda over the Ter, have aban-
doned the left bank of that river, and retired upon
the Llusanes. Whed General Donnadieu entered
Vich, the enemy detached 4,000 men from their army,
who re-ascended the right hank of the 'Ter, and hav-

ing marched by the road cif *Ripon, they. ar-
rived on the Bth at Campredon, a town three leagues
from our frontiers, in order to cut off our communica-
tions with that place, from whence General Donnadieu
aws all his supplies of provi,ions and ammunition.
The entrance of this corps into Campredon was
announced by the sudden and unexpected arrival of
some Monks, who on the 4th, at six in the morn-
ing, went forth to the sound of music to proceed to
their respective Convents, and take possession of their
estates and benefices. The arrival of the enemy at
Ripoll is further confirmed, by the way of Cerdagne.
On the 7th, the inhabitants of Ripoll fled to Cerdagne,
announcing the arrival of the army of Mina in their
town. The whole of the following night the troops
were under arms, expecting every moment to see the
troops of Mina arrive ; but it appears to be the ob-
ject of that General to occupy Campredon, anti cut
off the communications of General Donnadien. A con-
derable convoy, which had set out for Olot, returned
to Pradts on the Bth, at half-past one in the afternoon.
We know nothihg of the ulterior operations of these
two corps. We only know, that on the Btfl General
Donnadieu sent orders to the 3d battalion of the 18th
line, which was at St. Laurent de Cerdans, to cover
that part of our frontier ; and to proceed in conse-
quence to Olot ; the battalion set out on the 9th.
The enemy do not seem much disconcerted by our
entrance into Catalonia ; and those of their partisans
who remain in the villages which we occupy appear
well satisfied with the operations of Mina.
The soldiers of the division of d'Eroles, who re-
main in Cerdagne, desert every day, with arms and
baggage. The Officers of the Faith pretend that it
is because they are not paid, their treasure having
followed the head-quarters of the Baron d'Eroles,
there was no one left in Catalonia to pay the troops
of the Faith.

We know from travellers that the Constitutional
Government of Spain has prohibited from the Ist
instant, all communication with those parts of the
country occupied by the French.
It is very true, I repeat it, that on the approach of
our troops the greater number of families in easy cir-
cumstances take flight.
• Segovia was evacuated five days ago, with the ex-
ception of some field-pieces, which the dives of the
school of artillery here are to convey to Rodrigo.
All the materiel was abandoned for want of the means
of conveyance.
Madrid is almost deserted, nearly every one having
left it for the Andalnsias. The roads are encumbered
with emigrants, carrying with them their most va-
luable. effects. There is no defection amongst the
troops, nor do the bands of the Faith increase.
The occupation of the capital' hasleen foreseen,
and no person appears alarmed about, it. •
The necessity has begun to be felt of escorting the
convoys, from it, being. known with certainty that

several Constitutional gueriliii partial are forming In
the provinces.
We know that the prisoners, Win number, made
at the affair of LogrOno, hayc artliEd at Vittoria.
Useless efforts have been made to incorporate them
with the Army of the y4i5.14.4115y have -al refused
with great energy, declarinif they had tatherise shot.

The report which has been circulated of tiletem-

by Romagosa, oesistins of 2,000 men, by Mina, who
unexpactially arrived, assume/ more consistence yes-
terday. It is said, that the plan of Mina was to attack
the two divisions of Eroles and Romagosa, for the pur-
pose of dispersing them before corning into contact
with the nench army.

Bayonne Papers to the 14th inst. reached us this
forenoon. The accounts they contain are extrava-
gant and contradictory. One rumour represents
MINA has even been given up to the Fiend: by his
own troops; while another makes him quietly re-
tiring on Barcelona. BALLASTEROS too, whom pre-
vious accounts from France stated as being abandoned
by his troops, is reported to have had an engagement
with Mouton, in which he lost 5000 men. But these
rumours are supposqd to be mei ely a piece of policy
to throw a veil over some intelligence of a less wel-
come character to the French. The following are
extracts :
