The following intelligence reached us this morning'
much of it is of doubtful authenticity:

BAYONNE, OCTOBER 30. , _

The private letters still speak of the increase of the
force of Ballasteros, the chief corps of which is in the
environs of La Carolina, where it endeavours to inter-
rupt the communications.—Some even go so far as to
pretend that the King and the Court are far from feel-1
ing at their ease in Seville, and that they rather think of
retrograding and placing themselves in safety at Cadiz,
than of attempting to proceed to the capital, the mili-
tary position of which is not such as to secure it from a
coup de main. General Zayas is in the mountains of
Ronda, with a corps which becomes daily more nume-
rous. If these circumstances are as they are represented, it
seems probable that it will be a long time before our
troops can be recalled from the provinces, where their
presence is so needful. The latter say that his Royal
Highness the Duke of Angouleme will arrive at Madrid
'on the Ist of November, and will be in this city on the
sth.—The following is the list of the regiments that are
to occupy Cadiz and the environs :

In the city—The 9th Light Infantry, the 34th and 56th of the
Line. In the Isle of Leon—The 20th and 27th of the Line. At
Port St. Dlary's--The 13th Regiment of Cbassenis; and at Chi-
don, the 14th Regiment of ditto.

The army•courier has brought letters from Madrid
to the 27th, which confirms what we have said above
respecting the movements of Ballasteros, whom they
state to be advancing towards Castille.
Letters from La Carolina say, that several divisions
of French troops were expected there on their return to
France; one would rather suppose, if the above accounts
are correct, that they would be marching against the
points threatened by the enemy. The roads are very un-
safe, so that travellers are obliged to go in caravans, and
even then are often plundered, even under the walls of
Madrid. A secret Royalist Society has just been formed
in this City, to oppose, it is said, the Freemasons, and
defend the Throne and the Altar.

The Duke of Reggio is going to return' to France;
he sets out the 3d of November.

The Royalist Journals Say, that General Zayas has
embarked. for the Havannah. This is not correct, and
the report that Cuba has declared itself independent,
seems more deserving of credit. It Is affirmed that a
French army of 20,000 men is going to be collected to
combat the Constitutional troops in Estremadura. The
Chapter of Seville has offered to the King, a free gift
of 25,000 piasters, on a splendid silver salver ; the
whole was accepted.
Hostilities have recommenced before Carthagena.—
The report of the cannonade was heard on the 20th.—
An absolute discharge will be given to the military and
civil officers, who' will return to their homes.
Peniscola has submitted.--There is. a report of the
appearance of as English squadron off Cadiz.
General Mendez Vigo arrived here yesterday, he is
accompanied by an officer of gees d'armerie.

' The Litbmi Gazette; to the 25th bctobtsetie!elusiva,
Contains no news whatever relative tOPorWial itself or
to Brazil. Among the naval arrivals are siVcral from
Pernambuco, one of which had 350 soldiers on board;
the rest brought only a few soldiers. A ship of war, in
tune days from Madeira, brought word that trahcidil.
lity prevailed in that island.
Some vessels are announced as on the eve of sailing
for Pernambuco and Rio de Janeiro.

All the accounts from Spain represent the army of
BALLASTRROS as not acquiescing in the new order of
thing;; and it is even said to have assumed so fore&
dable a character, that twenty thousand of the FrenCh
troops are to march against it. BALLASTEROS, it ap-
pears, is not with the army, but remains at Port St.
Mary, mortified, no doubt, to see that even his se•
cession-from the Constitutional cause, which was so
decisive of its fate, has failed in gaining him the con-
fidence of his Sovereign. The following is a copy of
letter which he is said to have addressed to the Duc
d'ANctomemr, though we do not vouch for its authen-
titity
