excitement; hut jon may rely upon i* die

the issue of the trial. What the issue
they contemplate is, you limy conceive.
From this very unpleasant topic I tnrti
to one not ie--s painful—the slaughter ol
the (SpHinurds and Pii/'issitins who enter
ed .Spain last week, and which was an
nounced yesterday evening by Ihe iMcs
sager lies Clininbl'cs. The accounts of
the disaster, rest, it is said, on a despatch
received hy :M . Angisto. Hopes are en-
U'rtaijn'd that it is incorrect; at least that
the extent of tile misfortune is exaggera
ted. On general principles tho Parisians
would lament this discomfiture and des
truction of men seeking lo free their
country; hut they would have also pe
culiar and private reasons for sorrow,
should this melancholy intelligence be
1 confirmed. A considerable number of
I Parisian students, who had fought so
1 gloriously and so successfully in the
j cause, of liberty in Paris, having at their
own expense, proceeded lo the confines
j of,Spain, to join the brave Spanish He
'd fagees, entered w illi them, and have, it Is
i reported, been cut off to a man.

MOVEMENTS OP Till] SPANISH
REFI Gi:i]S.
The Paris papers of the 2isf, contain
the following bulletin from the Liberating
Army in Spain;
Oil the 1 ith October, nl It o’clock, (he
brave 001. Valdes marched into I rduch,
with a force consisting of IWI na-u.
lie was received throughout the coun
try w ith shouts of “I liberty forever!’’ and
the acclamations of joy at his approach
were Unanimous.
On the loth he reached Zurgarmurdi,
where be met with the same reception.
Tim inhabitants display iu every direc
tion the greatest enthusiasm at his arri
val.
A detachment marched towards Vera.
Upon its arrival the inhabitants hastened
to crowd round the ‘‘liberating soldiers,"
and the most cordial feelings of fraterni
ty exists between them.
In consequence of the vast number of
patriots who have just joined the corps
of the refugees, Col. Valdes has been ob
liged to devote the entire day to the or
gauization of the force now under Ivs
command.
He w ill resume his march upon Vrun
on the 17th.
His glorious enterprise could not com
mence under more favourable auspices—
and they presage u decided victory.
All V>od Spaniards, anxious to contri
bute llieir aid for obtaining the liberty of
their country, are hastening to quit
Prance, and range themselves under the
’banner ofthe intrepid \ aides.
The signal has been given. Spain
summonses nil its children to its delive
mnee. and no doubt they will not be dial
to its voice.
Zugarramurdi, Oct. 16.
From me Courier Frnncnis, Oct. tTfsl.
There is mneh talk at the E\i linage of
a telegraph despatch, sent from Rayon
ne by the Sub Prefect, niuioutieing iu
substance, that the corps of Gen. Valdes,
amounting to yiK) or J>DO men. had been
surprised and completely defeated, 50
only having escaped to take refuge in
France. It is probable that there is some
exaggeration in this account, and that it
has been got up to favor some specula*
(ion in the public funds. It is not impos
sible. after the lute events at llnyonne.
that the Sub Prefect would not Ire favo
rably disposed towards the Constitution
alists. and that he may have received too
credulously tire first vague rumors w hich
came to the frontiers.
The (ruth appears to be, that on (be
Ifilli Valdes occupied the Villages of Fr
ilnelic ami ZngaiTainnadi. Eight bun
dled royalist troops were four leagues
distant,mid madetioofirnsivemovement.
On the 17th a skirmish took place be
tween Valdes and the royalist troops;
about :i0 of the Constitutionalists flctl to
the French territory, which they -soon
quilted, to rejoin their companions nl Zif
garrmnu ndi.
The hostile conduct of the .'Marquis tie
St Priest towards his count y, has re
ceived a recompense at the Court of Fer
dinand. The Prince lias heaped honors
nml pensions upon the Ai.linssudoe, w ho
was unwilling to inoutit the national
cockade. He hits conlcm d upon bin a
Peerage, with (he title of Hake of Almn
sr.mi; and, notwithstanding the penury ol
hi* Treasury, he has given him a pension
of 6000 piastres (60.000 f anes,) and a
command, (SUOO reals in value, nearly 15,-
, (HiO francs.
Fponthc foregoing statement, one ol
tiie Paris correspondents of the .Morning
Herald writes as follows, on the after
noon of the 61st;—
‘■The news so industriously circulated
yesterday by the banker of the Court ot
Spain respecting the arrival of a telegra
phic despatch, unnuuneing the destruc
tion of the Spanish Constitutionalists
under the eominaml of \ aides is entirely
(alse—no telegraphic despatch of this
nature having reached government yes
terday. The Moniteur ofthis day relates
it only as a report circulated, and by no
means ns a despatch that had arrived.
There is, however, some levity on its
part in countenancing such a report. The
■ Constilntionncl and he Temps alone hud
the good sense of reTraining froiu the an
nonnoement ofthis false despatch.
Rut this morning a real telegraphic
despatch arrived, which announces .Mi
na and other Spanish duels having-en
tered the, Spanish territory. Valdes
still preserves his position at Zugarra
murdi. Potty men of his column returned
tn the French territory to provide them
selves w ith arms they stood in need of.

l- cfihrts of all Spaniards are going to oon

try. All the Journals oi Pans have suf-
L . fi red themselves to be mystified by the
r imposture of 31. Aguado.
The two last preceding extracts cor
f rohorate each other; hut the following
r ,n--fide being later, seems to put the inal
t I.T at rest. It is published m a poslcript
* ofthe Morning Herald, frotn the Mcssa ■
- err des CJianthm ofthe 22d.
I It was f.r the good of the Spanish
s Constitutionalists that we yesterday

shntild have desired, fertile moment, that
they had renounced establishing it bj

t jority oflhe public mind in the Peninsula

engagements, shrinking from the bleu
that its condescension might oeeasion a
i ei\ il war in a neighboring country, w hieh
if would he dilllealtto cheek afterwards,
in the midst of the effervescence of pas

French authorities laid given orders to

tiers. Rut all these menus to save them
from the blow s that were to strike them

A inline, led by Valdes.and Vigo, from
SOU to 000 men in number. Events have
sadly eotifirmcd both our nntieipillion*
mid our fears. After some success, which
inflnnied their hopes, this troop lias been
surprised ami destroyed. A telegraphic
despatch from IJnyoiiiie'staiesthnt scarce
50 men have escaped from the disaster.
May filch a lesson not discourage the
refugees, hut make them fed the neces
sity of moderation and concord ; may il
. teach them to concert their measures bet
-1 ter, to secure to themselves support m
1 the interior, and prepare the eh aunts ot
success by the communication of ideas
’ and sentiments! They w ill then, perhaps.
- meet with more sympathy in their own
country, and perhaps, as we said yester
day, the measures found to he necessary
w ill soften calamities, and reconcile all
; parties.
The defeat of Valdia is confirmed by
the news received to-day, but il is said
that .Mina is determined upon entering
Spain in order to collect the remnants ol
the division of Valdes, or to penetrate
’ still further into the country, w ith more
numerous and better disciplined forces,
or finally to eounter-halauee, by this de
' .uon-lration, the moral died produced
by a first ebei.it. Valdes (who was said

will, for the future, yield to the old mili

MODE OF CULTIVATING SUGAR CANE,
Several planters oa.e made ua exp.r
imeut in the mode ol euitivatiag cane,
as practised in Cuba. The mum point
is to obtain a thick regular growth. The
useol’llie plough and hoc is altogether
dispensed w ith—but the tops amt leaves,
arc left upon the ground, forming n co
vering six inches in depth, which besides
the fertility it adds to the soil,prevents its
being washed by the rums, effect ally
protects the ratoons from the frost and
prevents the grow Hi of weeds. Those
iieltls which have Iktii managed m this
manner are said to be the tinest in tlie
country, and it is believed by those quali
fied to judge that they will continue to
afford (as in Cuba) without further trou
• hie abundant crops lor twenty or thirty
years. U e are assured by a gentleman
who bus a small field managed in this
way that the present (tlie 8tlt) crop is
, the most luxuriant be has raised.

I We understand tinu the United States
troops, who have for a few weeks past

At an adjourned term of the Superior
Court for Hail county, held last week,
George Tassels, a Cherokee Indian, was

, that ua effort w ill be made on the part ol
, Tassels to carry the ease before the Sa

(lie right of the jurisdiction of that Court
over eases arising between this .Slate

ions among the gentlemen of the bar; but
i as far as we can judge, it is probable the
