TEN DAYS LATER FROM FRANCE AMI
SPAIN

ship Howard. Captain Holdred5e, arrived
nj this port last evening, in 81 days from
Havre. by this arrival, the editors Of the
Commercial Advertiser have reeeised regn-
lar files of Paris and Have papers 10 tine
18th of July inclusive i; and we have again
devoted our columns almost exclusively 10
Transitions iherefrom. Clouds and dark
ness yet hang over the affairs Of Spain
The Journal du Commerce wen remarks
" Tie history of the civilized world scarce
presents such an example Of confusion and
shocking anarchy. The wars Of principles
alone produced such results. Spain is
precisely in the same situation rs France
found herself during the days of the League
We restore nov TO Spain what she5 ave to
u.s."
IL will be seen that the detection of Mo-
.rillo, from the constitutional cause, is am
ply confirmed, and that instead of remain
ins neutral between the two powers, 1.-THE
Cortes and the Itegency)it is now added
that he has gone over 10 the French with
5000 of his troops. We were therefore
correct IN our supposition Of yesterday
that the conduct Of this officer Was no
known at Cadiz, at the date OF our last Ca.
diz papers. We have given among onl
TRANSACTIONS, the letter OF Morlilo to Quro
"a al length. II is said that on the Sd, ht
published new and energetic proclama
tion against the Cortes, aud another agains
the conduct Of Quiroga. Quifoga has pro
missed rewards TO all the soldiers wht
should follow him, and has published {
decree containing 2 articles against Those
who have abandoned the constitutions
cause, which strikes terror into those under
Nina, Velasco aud Torrijes.
In Catalonia, the consttutiOnalists still
evince disposition to oppose the French
inch by inch. II will be seen by the des-
patch from Marshal Money, that in march
ing to invest Barcelona on the 9th, the eth
corps had sharp action at Molins del Rey
and at Martorel, with the troops ef Mian'
and Lloberas, who were disposed 10 raise
the blockade of Barcelona. The Spaniards
took shelter under Che walls Of Barcelona
which place was to be completely invested
on the following day.
The detection Of Morilo produced a
sensible affection on the French Funds, by
causing them to rise. II is stated, howe
yer, that they had subsequently declined,
in consequence of the rumor that Dallas
teros and Lopez Banes had retaken Sc
vile.
In addition to the dispatch which we
have given below from Marshal Money,
our translator has furnished us with ano-
Their long one, of an antecedent date, (Jnly
4 but which we deem it unne ccssary TO
publish at length. II comments by giving
a pompous account Of two sorties which
had been made by the garrison shut up in
Figucras, in both of which they were repul
sed with trifing loss on each side. We
are next informed officially az the Ser
d'Urgei being invested by Baron ErUles
from whence, however, Nina had fed, tea
wing behind in the fortress, the troops who
escaped with him from the action witt
Donnadieu on the i4th aud 18th of June
and taking with him or 800 OF the former
garrison. Nina arrived AT Tarragona SICK
and on the 26th June, started again foi
Barcelona. Baron d'Eroles left the Sen
invested by a small force Under Genera
Ramagosa. On the cath of June sorti'
was made, which was repnlsed but il r"a'
judged expedient to reinforce the blockade
with another battalion of the line.
The Duke San Carlos, Ambassador from
the Regency to the Court of France, was
presented TO the king on the 10th July
and received public audience. lie wa!
afterwards conducted to the place Of the
TuilIeries in one of the kings equipages
aud presented to the royal family. Thu
Dukes speech on this occasion, aud The
answer of the King, viii be given to-mor
row.
Gen. Manso has died AT Rcuss, Of acem
Paint in the chest. This is a new loss to
the constitutionalists.
There has been some Disturbances a
Malaga, aud some lost their lives it wal
quelled by the Intervention of the regular
troops and milita.--Two Of heringleader
were condemned 10 death by court near
tial, and shot next day.
A Bayouue letter says" much talk ha,
been had with regard TO the sieges of St
Sebastian and Pampeluna, but we IN Bay
onne, see nothing Of those trains Of artillery
which were to operate in the siege-nont
have arrived here as yet"
A London paragraph says-Sir Jom
Dowpie and IL other individuals have beer
arrested for attempting a conspiracy agains
the constitutional government the disco
very of this plot is entirely owing to boz
Bracilia Lopez, actiag minister at wal, anC
Don Francisco Mancha, captain of tn,
Seville militia.
The latest accounts received at Paris
from Cadiz, were of the 9Th JuIy--not 81
late by two days, as were received here
and published yesterday. A letter OF The
3D. mentions that the ;tfe sittinGs OF tn,
Cortes have been very tempestuons; tha
the question of surrendering was agtated-
that the individuals opposed it, and the
militia of Madrid cried out death TO TN
Kiag.
A Cadiz paragraph Of the 7lh says, tth'
King who had already been forced to givt
