atm 27.—The 3il return on *the' right was pro-
longed as far as tl” walls of the Cmvent of the
Holy Cross, and the 40 was widened to the extent
of ;5 toises. The work begun in the left parallel
was finished, and .the 3,1 return was commenced, and
is making good progress. The mortars howit-
zers played the whole night upon the body of the
plate, the suburb, and the breach: ,Several other guar-
teti of Ale town were set on fire. The enemy were
bcard wolting to clear the breach.
28.--=The extremities of the right and left
parallels were carried to within less than 80 toises of
the top of the glacis. The batteries thait had been da-
maged were repaired, and a new one begun, on which
three 12-pounders will be mounted to play upon the
suburb on the left. Bonibs and howit7,2r, shells were
thrown, and different citlarters of the town
.continued
on ice.

By a decree of June 30, there shall be established
on the frontier of the Upper 4slige and the foreign
countries contiguous, a line of Custom-houses, th'
stations of which are to be determined by the Minister
of Finance, for the purpose of receiving import and
transit duties, according to the laws and regulations
of the kingliim relating to the customs.
There is at present forming in the island of Corsica,
a regiment, to consist of four battalions, under the
name of the regiment of the Mediterranean. The first
battalion is already completed.; Vrorn its military
appearance we may augtir that thit corps will be the
most formidable rampart of the 4.epartmentc of Golo
and Liamone. The greater part of the officers em-
ployed in the formation of the three► other battalions
have been selected from among brax•e veterans.

their fire ,upon the breach in the fame bracir, and for
tfte purpose of ruining the works and the interior of
the place: ,Another powder-magazine blew up, and
with it a considerable quantity of bombs and howit-
zer-shells. •

Several quarters of the city still continued burning,
and the enemy's fire was slackened.
s At two o'clock orders were sent to the batteries to
cease firing, for the purpose of sending in a flag of
iruce to summon the Governor to surrender.
