The following IS the order issned on the

eighth military district:
Soldiers The ordinary Council of War

ID. Xavier Elio, for the scandalous consPl-

| From some parts Of the country the ac-
counts are very unfdvorable TO the eOnsti-
tutlonnlists, but we think the friends of H.
beral principles need entertain no appre-
tensions respecting their final triumph.
The Royasts of Catalonia are concen-
traied in the enyirons of Ceryera, and oc
cupy strong position in the Convent cal
led San Ramon. The consttutionalists are

of Aug. and burnt. Forty-two houses
were destroyed, and some old men, women
and children persisted The attack was
made by an army Of Faith 800 strong, who
put the Constitntionalists to flight, aud kill
cd many oftllcm in the streets and squares.
A letter from the extreme frontier OF the
| department of Aniege, gives some particu-
| lars of a bloody battle between the Constl-
tutionalists and Royalts.--The fighting is
styled butchering from the sanguinary
| manner in which i was carried on. The
| Constltutionalists were oyerthrown.
From Barcelona the accounts are more
| favorable they are down To the 28th Aug.
and state that General Torrilos had sur
rounded and shut up in the town of Cevera,

| 800 Of the rebels in such manner that it
was expected that not a man would escape.
When the last accounts left the camp of
| the Constitutionalists, they had pressed
/ their works 50 far and gained so much
ground in the town, that the rebels had
been compelled TO take refuge in the Jero-
mite convent, and it was hourly expected
| they would surrender, when it was fine in
tention Of General Torrijos TO execute all
the leaders. On all the other points the
| pliu5 Of the Constitutibnsasts had been 50
well laid, and the designs of the rebels We're
so apparent, that was expected the cause
of reedom would very soon be triumphant
| throughout the whole province 'of Catalo-
MIA. The Spanish man of war San Pablo,
| Lad arrived at Barcelona from Cadiz, with
a supply ofmoney, arms, &c.
The Gazette de France contains pri-
yate letter, dated frontiers of Spain, Sep

SEmLIS, Aug. 27.--No recent news from

Turkish couriers from Albania say, that the
| ''uliots, having been defeated in several ac-
| tons by the Pacha of Arta, had submitted
10 the Porte and made a convention with
| the pacha. This, if true, would be a great
misfortune for the Greeks, as the Turks
would have large force at liberty.
