SPAIN

(FROM THE CORRESPONDENT OF THE MMINIAG HERALD.)
AINHO, Aug. 24.—i have this instant received the following
from Elisondo :
" Elisondo, Aug. 23.--On the 19th General Iturrald,, whilst
attacking a petty division of the enemy on the plains of
Lodosa, was surrounded by their cavalry, and with difficulty
any part of his column escaped. It was composed of the 4th
battalion of Navarre and the company of infantry attached to
the Junta. Our loss is betweeu 400 and 500 prisoners, and the
Commandant of the cavalry. Ortigosa. Let us hope th'at
we
may be able soon to repair this loss."
The Portuguese legion has been recalled.
General Sarsfield is ill, and Cordova continues the command
of the army.
The Chief of the engineers stationed at Vittoria has deserted
to the Carlists.
Don Carlos was yesterday at Aspeitia.
I write this in great haste, being desirous of confirming the
defeat of Iturralde. To-morrow you shall hear further from me.

BAYONNE, Aug. 24.—General Iturralde marched oat of
Aroniz on the 17th, with the 4th battalion of Navarre, and
some cavalry, and proceeded to Cascar, for the purpose'of pro-
tecting four compan►es of the Ist battalion, who bad advanced
the day before to the environs of Viana. On the 18th, at two
in the afternoon, lturralde halted with his division, in a ravine,
situate within a league of Cascar, where he ordered his men to
pile their arms, without taking the precaution of sending out
advanced,y9sts. _ _ _

Thenerat Iribarren, who had left Lerin on the 17th, wits his
column, composed. of 1,5 W infantry, 700 cavalry, and four pieces
of artillery, marched to Carcastillo, and thence to the ravine,
where he -killed 25 Carlists, wounded 60, and made between 600
and 700 prisoners..._lturralde took to flight. The colonel of
the 4th battalion was wounded in the hand by a lance; 30
other officers were taken or wounded, and the remainder were
fortunate enough to escape.
On the 19th, lotelligenee of the rout having reached Estella,
the Whole place was thrown into consternation, and the Carlist
soldiers vociferated cries of death to the trait-Nr Iturralde ! The
latter remained concealled at Arellano, within two leagues of
that city.

The Ministers Villemur and Modet, who happened to be a
Estella, immediately called together a court-martial to tr]
Iturralde.

A bloody encounter took place on the 20th at Mallen, four
leagues from Saragossa, between Don Basilio Garcia, who had
with him 5,000 infantry, and 300 cavalry, and the National
Guard of Saragossa. The latter are said to have been beaten
with considerable loss.

BArosrsE, AUGUST 25.—A gentleman, who by his situation
is in a tray to receive important communications from Spain,
has handed nie the following letter from Madrid :--
" I have obtained a piece of irrtelli,gence, of the highest im-
portance, and from •a quarter which ought to be well informed.
". Queen Christida has secretly addressed a letter to all the
Courts of Europe, in which she protests against the violence
offered her on the 13th, iu the residence of San Ildefonso, where
she was obliged to yield to a military insurrection. Her Ma-
jesty protests against the validity of all acts that may emanate
from her while in that. state of coercion, and which, she trusts,
may not he considered hereafter to have impaired the preroga-
tives and rights of her august daughter Isabel 11.
" This step, it is said, was suggested to her Majesty by the
Marquis of Miraflores, Count d'Ofulia, and the M arquisde las
A marillas."

The national guard and garrison of Tudela have been under
arms since the altar of Mallen, for fear Cabrera should join
Garcia on that point, and direct a combined attack, agaiost the
Upwards of 300 young men have abandoned Saragossa,
within a few days, to enlist in the corps of Basilio Garcia.—
From Corella, Cascante, and other villages, 1,500 at least have
followed that example.
General Garcia was, on the 24th, at Salinas de Gro, and his
division occupied Vidaurre, Muniain, &c., within two leagnes
of Puente la Reyna.

Five other English officers have arrived in our town' this
evening.
I have been informed this instant that General Iturralde, who
was said to have been arrested and brought off a prisoner to the
head quarters of Don Carlos. had gone over to the Christinos
with a few horsemen. The soldiers and people of the provinces
openly charge him with hiving betrayed the brave 4th battalion
of Navarre into the hand of the enemy, and loudly demand his
execution as a trailer.

The following matter-of-fact letter is from an eye witness, and
give° a full account of the insurrection at La Granja

"L t GRANJA, Aug.' 14.—" The regiment of Provincial
Guards, which formed part of garrison of this place, revolted on
the 12th. The soldiers left their barracks and proceeded to the
palace, crying Muera Munos,' Muera San Roman.' The
guaigis of the palace offered a feeble resistance, but were soon
overpowered. The rioters having broke through a door with a
batch entered the court-yard, crying out for the queen in terms
the most disgusting, and in language of the worst description.
The inmates of the palace becoming seriously alarmed, San Ro-
man, presented himself at one of the windows, and demanded
what they wanted.—' La Reyna." La P—a,' Que salga,
que salga' was the constant reply. Christina, frightened to
death, consented to receive two sergeants, two corporals, and
twelve privates; the men instantly ascendedinto the royal closet.
There a scene took place of the most infamous description ; the
brutes had the cowardice to insult grossly an unprotected female,
and to load her with the vilest epithets. They then insisted on
her placing, and that immediately, her signature to the constitu-
tion of 1812. Christina consented, and, pale as death, tears rol-
ling down her cheeks, she retired to her private apartments to
sign her death-warrant. From this place she sent the revolu-
tionary act to the rioters ; but they were not satisfied, declaring
it to be the writing of San Roman, and insisted on the queen
signing it in their presence. Hardly able to walk, she once
more entered the apartment, and, after signing, addressed the
men in the following words:—' Ustades inismos son testigos de
la manera in que doy esa firma.' The rioters then retired, hut
continued the queen a prisoner until they had received informa-
tion that the constitution bad been proclaimed at Madrid."
