sedi'ious cries, to insdgate the soldiers
of his majesty TO desert. At the slght
of a piece of artillery these wretches
cried 'Vive Fartillerie Francaisep--
General Walin replied by another cry,
thus: yes, yive l'mtillerie! but Nive
lie Roi,-Firep At this very instant, a
company of the 9th Light Infantry,
which had beer masked, debouched,
and completed the dispersion Of those
whom the grape shot had spared
These troops have manifested their love
for the King by somethingmore express
sive than their habitual acclamations
Your Excellency will find annexed the

their posts before the arrival of the re-

unanimous cries of "Vive lie Roll

chamber The Minister in conclusion
said: the King who still cheerishes pa
ternal sentiments, even for his guilty
children, cannot see, without a feeling
of pain that French blood has flowed in
ranks where treason alone could have
placed it., This blood will be on the
heads of the instigators of the deplora,-
BILE revolution of Spain In conclusion,
gentlemen, every thing gives us reason
to hope that this pest is going to'end.--
Spain, which we go to succour, AREA

allies. In the Peers, NJ de Villele, the
!, Minister of Finance, read a similar de-
spatch from the Duke de Belluno. He
descended from the tribune amid cries

DEsPArcH FROM GEN GUILLEMINoT.
"The march of the army continues
The brigade of the advanced guard, UNI
der the Marshal de Camp Vallin, is halt
march beyond Tolisa, which the Duke
of Reggie occupies with the first corps
The division Of Gen. Bourke closely
blockades ST. Sebastan.-Our troops
then made themselves masters of the
heights which command the fortress, in
to which they forced the garrison to re-
turn. The impotence for fighting was
such, that Generals and Officers could
scarcely check it.
From this new position General
Bourke sent a second flag of truce,
which this time was admitted; but the
Governor having pretended that adj
vantage had been taken of this circum

demonstrated to him our good and his
bad faith, by Immediately withdrawing
his troops 200 PAGES. The flag of truce
having returned, the troops of his Ma
jesty assaulted with fresh ardour all the
posts the enemy had reoceupied, and
completely overthrow them
After an hours repose, the enemy
