ARRESTS IN SARDINIA.

A letter from the frontiers of Italy, under the date of Nov. 3.
contains the following :—'• A conspiracy has been discovered,
and many persons of all classes are implicated therein. The
Sardinian police has arrested about 50 conspirators, and con-
vincing proofs of their culpability were found at their lodgings.
The leaders have, however, been able to effect their escape to
France, Switzerland,and Spain, in which countries they appear
to have had powerful accomplices and auxiliaries, a circumstance
which should not be overlooked."

MISCELLANEOUS.
In a letter to the neighbouring cantons the Swiss Vorort
announces its intention of expelling all the refugees accused
of taking part in the Strasburgh affair from the Swiss terri-
tory.
It is said that Charles X. has left a sealed will, which is to be
opened in the presence of an envoy from the Cabinet of Vienna.
The late King's family have written to Prince de Metternich,
to learn his wishes on the subject.

The latter part of the telegraphic dispatch from Toulon of the
12th of November, is as follows :
" On the 9th instant, the first division, under the command of
General Trezel, went to replace the Vanguard, which that day
was to advance seven leagues further. The Duke de Nemours,
Marshal Clausel, and the rest of the army, were to quit Bona
the 11th or 12,h."
The Gazette de Carlsruhe says, under the date of Rome 29th
of October—
" It is announced, that an Austrian corps marches on icapics,
and that already the passage had been demanded."
The German and Italian journals arc full of reports and
rumours of conspiracies and plots in Italy.
A letter from Geneva, dated Nov. 12, says—
" We have the satisfaction of announcing that the blockade
was raised this afternoon, A gendarme from Gex Drought this
intelligence to the officers of the gendarmes at Ferney, who im-
mediately mounted horse, and imparted it to the gendarmes at
Grand Saccounex, who immediately brought it to Geneva. It
is probable that the same order has been given on all the other
points of the frontier. This fact is a certain evidence of the
reply which was adopted by the Diet in its sitting of the sth
instant having been agreeable to the French government.
Every one will learn with pleasure that the hitherto state of
affairs, so much to the prejudice of both countries, has ceased."
It is said that the Court of the Tuilleries has resolved on
going into mourning fur Charles X., as far as the members of
the royal family are concerned, but that they will not require
the persons attached to the court to do the same.
The Conytitutionnel says, that the Duke de Montebello is not
to be recalled from Switzerland, but that when the Chambers
shall meet, he is to be sent for to take his place among the peers.

SIEGE or BILBOA.—This morning I received the following
important communication from the royal head-quarters :

" Royal Head-quarters, Durango, Nov. 10.

able account of the progress of the expedition, and that he was
actively occupied in organizing fresh battalions, arming them
.with the muskets taken from the Urbanos of the Asturias.

" This morning a report was received fawn the Commissario
Regio of Estello, dated Nov. 9, six o'clock a.m., giving hasty

able loss to the Christinos." _

The following is the official report of the storming of two
forts, Los Banderol ar.d Lus Capuchinus :

" PROM COUNT DE CASA EGUIA To THE MINISTER OF WAR.

" Excellent sir,—This morning, at seven o'clock, we recom-
menced the operation before Bilboa; the fire was opened against
the heights and fortifications of Los Banderos. After a few
shots our brave troops stormed the fort, got possession of it, and
made the garrison prisoners, composed of 50 soldiers of the 4th
Light Infantry, two officers, one corporal, and four artillery-
men. We also made ourselves masters of a piece of eight
and a great deal of ammunition.
" Whilst part of my men were at work at Los Banderos,
others stormed Los Capuchinos, took it, and made 110 soldiers,
four officers, the commander, and a surgeon prisoners. The
garrison was composed of two companies : those not taken were
drowned in endeavouring to escape.
" We next got possession of Olaviega and Duesto. All these
advantages were obtained in one hour, and without the loss of a
single man. God protect your excellency.
