 An express arrived yesterday from bil- boa, where, even by the rebels themselves, it was admitted that General saarsfield with 10000 men, had commenced his march upon Yittoria direct, and upon bilboa by Ordena and Balmasteda.
 Some days ago informed you that 1t was inc intention of the rebels to make for To- losa, with a considerable force, and three pieces of ordnance. Their plan, however, was frustrated by the defeat they experience ed at Logrono; in fact, the day before yes- tcrday, when Fl Pastor was pushing for As- peitia, about 5000 insurgents, accompanied with artillery, presented themselves before him and endeavosed 10 impede his progress and although El Pastor had only about 2oo men lie fully maintained hls ground put General Castagnon, seeing that protract- ed resistance against such overwhelming numbers would be useless, ordered the evacuation of Tolosa, and retreatedto Her mani, where h1s tIoops rested yesteFday' ana afterwards took the road to St. Sebastian.
 Another letter from Bayonne, ot the same days date, Nov. 8, says-ss Last msht' about nine o'clock, information was reeeiy- ed of Captain-General Gastagnon having been warmly attacked at Tolosa, by body tof 5000 or 400o insurgents, and compelled with Fl Fl Pstor to take refuge in St. sebas- titan. It was also added that the garrison ot lIrIn. about 40 men, and the authorities of the Queen, were compelled 10 make tor the frontiers, and seek safety upon the French territory"
