EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

We have received this forenoon, br Express, the
following accounts from Paris dispatched on Satur-
day evening :

“ PARIS, SATCRINLY, FITZ IYCLOCI, MC.

cc I have just learned that dispatches have been re-
ceived from the Duke de BELLurro, which state his
arrival at the army, the condition in which he found
it, and the measures he deems necessary to qualify
the troops for immediate operations.
di The report of General Gorta.zumor is, in all its
snore material points, confirmed; but grrAtoblame is
imputed to the General himself, and especially to'
the (Niters in his confidence. The General insists
on. having his conduct submitted to the judgment al
_
a Council of War.

64 The Duke de Baurero had called together the
Commanding Offices of the several regiments, and
questioned them as to tbolfait that animated their
troops. Their reports were getun2lly unfavourable.
it appeared, on inquiry, that the work of seduction
had been chiefly carried on by soldiers pretending to
be of the Army of the Faith, but who were, in fact,
emissaries of the Coustitutionalpeety.
g, To prevent such deceptions in ftititre, the Marshal
has issued an order f,orbidding affil intercourse between
the troops of the two nations ; so that any effective co-
operation on the pert olds* Array of the Faith is now
nearly out of the question. " One' important arni of
inftsion may be thus cceusidered as already lopped off
The equipments of the army have been also found
by the Marshal in a very unsatisfactory state. The.
conduct of certain Employes in the Department, with
respect to this branch of the service, is said to be with,
out excuse; and many removals at least must inevi•

tably take place. 'There has been atone is abund-

exist in the materiel of the army, they may, with.the
resources which this Government Las at its.ceatimando
be very speedily repikerd; especially since the Mi-
nister at War is himself now .on. the spot to see his
plea orders faithteli; obeyed. It is not, therefore,
imagined that thredvance pf the army will be post-
poped beyond,* Week Or tto•at the farthest.
, "The reported• irruption of MZKA into the French
teritory is not credited here, in quarters which I have
found the best informed on Spanish matters."

Three days' French Papers have reached us, but
the intelligence they contain may be very briefly
summed up. A report prevailed in Paris on Thurs-
day and Friday that MINA had attacked-the French
frontier, and " taken off a corps of Spaniards." That
.an, Officer of so enterprising a character as MINA may
have become impatient at the menaces of the French
.troops *long delayed to be put into execution, is na-
tural enough ; and that he would be fully justified
in not,waiting the attack of the French, is certain,
but still we do not believe the report ; an& confider
it as one of those fabrications which has for its object
toihroW the onus of breaking the peace on &pain; as-
if the speech of Loots XVIII. was not of itself a de-
clatation of War,

The French Papers of Saturday are silent as to the
disorganization of the Army of the Pyrennees, with
the exception of theilleaiteur, which has an article
more suspicious froniits verbiage than the silence of
the other journali. Under the head Bourdeaux it
thus describes the disposition of the troops in that
city :—" It would be difficult to express the joy
of the brave soldiers who are so happy as to serve
'under the orders of a Bonmsow. They advance
towards the frontier filled with a noble enthusiasm,
and animated with the most lively ardour to combat,
under colours without blemish, the enemies of legiti.
limy and true liberty !" The departure of the
Duchess d'Atrootmaatz for Bourdeaux, to join her
husband, is fixed for the2d of April ; from which•it
is probable that the entry of the French into the
Peninsula is not so near as has been conjectured--
The few Spaniards who remained in Paris were ire=
paring to quit ihat capital. The Count,de Tom's%
who has resided there for the last two years,.wat
about to repair to London.

, .
Petitions against the war continue to be presented
to the Chamber of Deputies.. One. of the latest is,
from Marseilles, whith, after demonstrating the ab
curabtrof she fears of the moral /contagion. of the.
Constitution. of the Certes, sheiieffickdaligerous
seqpeaces of war. The consequences, hoWever, pointed
out by the good 'peopre:Of *rseilles, are not cf*
political nature, and mightbected against any war,,
just or unjust. The South of-France, they say, which
has already lost its-olive plantations, ithich were the
chief source of its wealth, by theinclemency of-the
season, will soon see its vineyards perish, which are
its only remaining resource. Marseilles, which h
obliged to make its vessels, employed op long voyages
sail along the whole eastern cpast otSpaio, and Into
the ocean by the Straityof, Gibraltar,
.will ngain see
them rotting in its port, its-seamen .reduced to beg-
gary, and most of its ateliers closed.
The ,Eloik contains an article from Pau, which
states that several French Officers, condemned for
political offences, who have taken refuge in Spain,
have attempted to seduce the French soldiers; in the
jittle commune of Biciaton, which is separated from
the Spanish frontier by the Bidiessoa, the Eloile,
states, that the Officers invited two soldiers to cross
the river, offering them " fifteen penee a day and the
glory of serving the Emperor," but their virtue was
proof against so strong a temptation.
The attempts to seduce the French soldiery, how-
ever, are not confined to the Officers in Spain. Count
de POvszooa, Prefect of the Department of the
Landes, which is situated between Bayonne and Boon.
deaux, has issued a Proclamation, in which he says he'
has " learnt with indignation the guilty Manounes,
by means of which certain individuals are endea-
vowing to shatieutherldelity of the brave troops
which 'ate now *wiing the department on their
way to the army. These criminal attempts have been,
made in every ptisaffide way, by incendiary language
and the distribution of infaMous writings. Nothing,
in,short, ha; been neglected by these artisans of trou-
ble and .discord, to attain their object." The Procla-
ination adds that the soldiers " repel, with contempt,
these insinuations, as cowardly as they are perfidiods."

ter of War, soliciting to be allowed to accompany his

which, in his opinion, ought already to be organized
and without the capital.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.
PARIS, MARCH 28.

We are at length in great hopes that the connect.
ing links of the plots which have so long agitated
France will be discovered; and the ringkaders of the
conspiracy brought to justice. A personage of some
diitinction, the Marechal de Camp Baron Piat, au
Officer of the Legion of Honour, and a Knight of St.
Louis, has been arrested. This Officer, who ser►ed
Under Bonaparte, was raised in 1809 to the con&
mand of the 85th Regiment of Infantry, and was
then a Chevalier of the Legion of Honour. In 18101
he was made an Officer of the Legion and a Baron.
On the 3d of April, 1813, he was made General of
13igade, answering to the rank of Marechal de Camp,
ins which he was not only maintained on the Restora•
Lien, bnt was als6 created a Knight of Sr. Louis, and
took the oath of allegiance to the Boutbons; an
oath which (like so many other persons) be violated
in the rebellion of the Hundred Days. However, he
has still been retained in the cadres derarin(r, wher*
he figures among the Marechaux de Camp disponible&

was to attempt to debauch the army, of the Pyrenees

44 Captain George, Of the' Otto' Police Gtiards,
has just arrived from Villa Real, -which place he left
at ten yesterday morning, and he brings advice' that
the Rebel troops fled in disorder towards Villa Ponca
d'Aguiar, in the night of the Bth, leaving their bag-
gage with a guard, which immediately surrendered.
There information was obtained of the discontent
that prevailed among the Officers and soldiery, who,
in 636 i-retreat, declared they' were surrounded and
lost, swearing iengeanciragalnai Amarante, who had
deceived them. The towna, where—the Rebels had
been, experienced the greatest insults and hardships,
owing to the robheriesthey had ronunitted. General
Rego writes, that the Colonel of the 6th regiment of

The measure of disarming the population of the
lonian Islands, so properly adopted by Sir TIMItAf
MAITLAWD it the close of the year 1821, is now
daily brought forward, with a view to destroy the
effect of the statement which was made in the Holitt
of Commons when 'the Army Extraordinaries atwi
before the House, that the British force in thestri
Islands was totally inadeqtiate to oietiwe the lonian
