LONDON, April IS.
From, the Courier Franeais Of Tuesday.
II is surprising that the Telegraphic des-
matches, which announce the movements
Of head quarters and of the advanced
guards, communicate nothing of what pas
ses in the centre and on the wings OF the
army. The letters from Bayonne OF the
18th, all concur in mentioning an eng age
ment which had taken place between FL
Pastor and the 23d regiment OF the line,
between Tolosa and Villa Real.
Ii is hard 10 suppose that all the reports
in circulation on this subject can be 6cti-
,ious. and few words in the Monsteur
would at once strip them Of whatever ex-
sggeration they may have required.
The place of Santona, so bravely de-
isnded by General Lamelb, during the
las, war, has been put into good state
tor defence, and the Brigadier Don Juli-
nSSanchez has the command there.
From Private Letter.
PERfIGNAN, April 1--we are assured
that the division of Baron d'Eroles viii
ne distributed, and that each French d.
vision will have three battalons OF the ar
nv of the Faith. II is thought that this
will be the best way to employ them use'
July.
On the nth inst. thirty two soldiers oil
the army OF the Faith attempting to desert,
were arrested on the frontier, and brought
in here. They were conducted to the
Etal.major's who will transfer them to the
camp of the Baron d'Eroles.
At Puycerda. the Governor assembled
the garrison, and read the Proclamation oil
Queseda, and asked them the part they
intended 10 take. They all replied "The
constitution or DEATH"

Patent Elastic Saddles.

WORD TO THOSE WHO ARE FOND OF EASY
The complaint against hard and uneasy
saddles, which is for the most part just
and general one, and is really great grie-
vance to those who have much riding to
do, has caused blm to turn bis mind par
ticuIsrly to that subject. with a, view, 1T
possible. to remedy ths evil. he can
with confidence assure the public that ne
has accomplished 1t. The plan projected
is by means OF strong and well tempered
steel springs, so constructed as TO- support
the saddle seat and give much greater ssss
to both rider and horse, than saddles made
IN the common way or any other that ne
has ever seer can possibly do. The plan
is entirely different from the English elias
tic saddles with spring bars OF steel,
whaiebone, &c. and also from those with
wire springs, and he cOnceives much su.
perinr to either, as the elasticity Is great.
er, and The tree not being put out OF its o.
rIginal form, will not be subject to hurting
horses on journeys, which is complained
OF IN the saddles with spring bars A
number of gentlemen have those saddles
now IN use, and but one sentiment exists
among them in favor OF thei; superiority.
The invention is equally as applicable 10
LADIES' saddles as to gentemen's. In
point OF durability they will be warranted
equal 10 any other saddles and superior to
most. JAMES FANoANl L.

April. We learn of capt. Story, tina,
he French troops had reached Bur.
goa, about 60 miles south of the Ebro,
and about leo miles north Of Madrid.
Nothing important had occurred on
their march thus far.-The king OF
Spain reached Seville about the 18th
of A pril. At Cadiz considerable spi-
rit existed, and measures were taking
to resist the invaders.
A British cutter had just arrived at
Cadiz with special messenger from
England.
