appears to have taken placeuot only with

The London Courier 'if the 8th of May,
states, that the city had been in'indated-witlf
reports that morning. One of which was that
the j French had captured -Pampehma, andj
that, was immediately. s icceeded by another,
that the Duke d'A'ng'Ouleme had been assas

- The Liverpool Courier of the 10th of May, j
contains :a postcript in which it is said that .
4i various reports prevail in Paris," among
which one was, that the king had renewed
his former connexion With Decazes, ami that
the Litter would 'soon .be. at the head of.' an
administration half liberal half ultra, ami that j
Talleyrand was in close union with Decazes. t
Rumours Were afloat tSiat a negotiation
was about to take place between France and
the Cortes. - f";'
The Courier of the 8th discredits hese
stories, and quoted the --Q'totidienne of Mon
! ty preceding, in support of the improbabi
lity. ; ".;. . ' 1 . v ; , .
. By these accounts, it docs not appear the
French had made any progress to wai'ds
'drict'. They were at the latest date before
Fampeluna. ; The rumour of negotiation wilt
probably prove to be nothing more thin ru
mour. It will be recollected that all the ac
eounts on the French side of Spain must
come from the Fr -nch, and therefore are to
be taken with grains of 'allowance. It" is
bar !ly to be imagined, that "'ti.'? Spanish go

suming such a lofty tone at the outset, and
aftftr takin'ir the p irns to transport Iheir go
vernment to such a distance from the iihme-
diate scene of hostile operations, , as 'a place
of safety. . .. .
Nor do wc plae any graivter reliance on
the story of aiy expected change in the
French. Ministry. .Such a measui e would in
dlcatQ a determination on' the, part of the
King of France to recal his troops, and bring
about-a peace, without- having 'accomplislied

.The Lon Ion Courier of May 5th, states
that the Duke d'Angouleme had met some
unexpected difficulties nn his march to Mad

tional troops are ordered to the Pyrenees
from the northern parts of France. The lust
despatches from the hed .quarters ofthe.
French army, are supposed to have strongly
urged' the. importance ot immediate rein
forcements. The neCes.s"ty of reducing St .
rfebastian, 'Pampeluna and Figueras, and t.ve
impossibifity of doing either, with the fore?
employed, explain the grounds of ,the jnew
levy. This is the, cause of the pause in the
