PARIS, MARCH 10.

It ii difficult to disentangle the confusion that
exists in the accounts relative to Spain. Yet it seems
to be acknowledged that there have been no battles
between Abisbal and Bessieres ; and that the latter
has got a strong force, which he is endeavouring to
strengthen by fresh recruits.
The Cute Gauche still hold out, and if they persist
in their policy, the Session is likely to be much shorter
than it would have been..

The Marquisde Fraguier, Member of the Chain-
ber of Deputies, and commanding the Gth Legion,
and M. Polissard-Quatremere, Colonel of the 4th Re:
giment, have pnblished Orders of the Dav pointing
out the conduct of M. Mercier as a breach of disci-
pline which must excite indignation, and which ought
collie the more severely punished as it compromises
the honour of the National Guard. We confess that
we find it impossjble to reconcile the publication of
these documents with the Ministerial article of the
Jourisal des Debats, in which it is distinctly stated that
it is.not the duty of a Serjeant commanding a post of
honour to execute an arrest.—Constitutionotel.

its effect, and the eloquent Professor was allowed to'

it may beinferred, how popular is the cause of peace

is prohibited in the University. M.Villemain is afraid

EXTRACT Of A LITTER FROM PERPIGNAN, DAVID

MARCH 1.

Count Verges, first Aide-de-Camp to the War Mi-
nister, arrived here the day before yesterday: He has
taken a lodging, and means to make some stay here.
It is stated that he is charged with the important
mission of embodying the bands of the Faith in regi-
ments. The Officers who can neither read nor write
will be obliged, it is said, to serve as private% and
their rank will not be restored to them until they
shall have acquired the necessary instruction. It is
even announced that this measure was determined on
at Paris, and that the Baron d'Eroles is to deliver to
each regiment the books purchased in the capital,
end destined for the education of those Gentlemen.—
It is said that the uniform svorn by Count de Verges
is the model of that destined for the new corps which
are about to be organized.

We regard with pleasure all the new measures of
Government. It is hoped that when the Officers of,
the bands of the Faith shall have acquired the educa-
tion which is proposed to be given to them, that the
war will no longer be s work of pillage ; and that
when Misas shall know how to read and write, and
shall have studied our military regulations as well as
the memoires of our General Officers, he will no
longer commit, in his expeditions, these ferocious acts
which have spread despair and desolation among a
considerable number of families of Catalonia.

It is reported that the whole of the 5 per cent.
French Stock -inscribed in the Great Book of France,
in the name of the -English Government, to answer

INSURRECTION IN PORTUGAL.
This forenoon we received
.a Lisbon Ktil, with
Papers to the 2d instant. They bring the important
intelligence of an' attempt made in the province of
Minho to effect a counter-revolution and overture
the present Constitutional Government of Portugi.
It appears that ,the Conde de AMA RANTS, a Brige;
dier (General), we believe, hoisted the standard sr
revolt at Villa Real on the 21st February. He suc-
ceeded in seducing some soldiers from their obt.
dience. General Recd immediately called a Council
of his Officers to decide on the measures to be taken,
and two regiments of troops, with some artillery,
were dispatched against AMARaNTE.
Up to the lit instant, however, no intelligence hal
,reached Lisbon of the suppression of this rebellion, ,
'but confident hopes were entertained that it would
be of no importance. " If," says the E,
Diaro do Govern, " there be a few
amongst us-so despicable as to prefer slat.
