This success was, h cwever, but 4 brief Juta-

Gen. Bonnemain, who ultimately succeeded in

The Duke Of Angosleme could not he aware
of the nature of the arrangement before San

captulation OF Ballasteros and the Editor of
the Restaurador has, perhaps, by his bungling,

which proves either that Ballasteros has no
army, or that he and his army are again arrays
ed against the enemies Of their country.
| The Moniteur Of Friday contains an Official
despatch from Marshal Lauriston, and supplies
at last The details of the grand attack on Pam
peluna. In one or two instances the Noble
Marquis contradicts his former statcments.-
Whilst carrying on the works for the siege.
he founded his chief hopes of success on the
weakness of the garrison. Now that the place
is reduced, he builds up the glory of his tr-
umph ON the strength of that very garrison.--
1t appears, however, that his last account is
more correct than the first, since the number
VINO surrendered, after an action of little more,
| Than four bours, amounted 10 $500. The
whole, allowing for The killed and wounded
must therefore have exceeded 1000 at the
| commencement of the action. The feeling of
hostility TO the Regency seems TO have been
universal. Many Of the officers and men took
their wives with them, and even the wounded,
who could be transported preferred incurring
the itiigues OF journey through The PyTe-
nres Ia France, to remaining under the sway
of Royalsls The sef-banished garrison set

battaions and squadron OF Cavalry to pro-

is the state To which the neighbourly kindness
OF France has reduced unfortunate Spain!
There appears, in the accounts transmitted
through Bayonne, an official narrative of a VIC
tory obtained by Nlilans over the French ar
my, consisting OF 10000 men, and commanded
by Money in person. The engagement took
place on the 28th of August, at AttafulIa, some
leagues N. E. of Tarragona. II was maintain
ed with extraordinary obslinacy on both sides
and was terminated by n decisive bayonei at
tack along the whole line on the part of the
Spanish Infantry, who broke the enemy and
drove them of the field the cavalry of Mi
ians pursuing them for several miles and in
various directions. Milans makes the French loss
amount to near LOO men, of whom 40 were
prisoners /; that ofihe Spaniards to something
more than 500. This wasa battle as glorious
TO the patriots of Catalonia, as it AS Disgrace
iul to the other Spanish armies. Had the rest
OF Spain acted with but an hundredth part of
the spirit and honour displayed ia this single
province, where would his Higiness of Angou-
