Mt Daln, Avo. 6.—Yesterday the Junta of Council and the Alealties of the Court. ordered that every one from the age of 16 to 50. should immediately inlist and take up arms; but we are Assured that this order will not be put in force, owing to the arrival of two aidssdescatpp from General Castanos; and to morrow a Deny,' is to he sung. It seems the French have taken the road to Navarre; and besides having put their moles and horses W feed tto our corn, they have burned all the Indian corn, and sacked the towns. This is the manner in which these an grateful wretches have repaid us for the reception they got from us; hut this ought not to astonish us, as they do nut regard the welfare of their own nation. A well-known milliner in this city sought the protection of her countrymen, and proceeded with the army, currying with her many millions, the fruit of the ri , tieulatts Spanish taste for French fashions; but on the road her protectors robbed her, violated her person, and after wards murdered her! A party of Andalusian smugglers, who left this place in pursuit of the French, were fortunate enough to overtake some settlers who were with the army, and took from them seven hundred- thousand teals, with other effects. Two (dose coaches entered here, and omit immediately to the new Palace, where they left the equipage that they were con ducting. They went afterwards to the jail of this city, where , the , : lodged the peop!e that were In the carriareo, without our bring able to know .o this Ino.nent who the‘ were. Aco. 10.—Yesterday entered this city the troops of Valencia and of Andalusia, which are going to drive nut the French, who are retreating to the frontiers. We have sent all the troops of the garrison, for we have not retained any ; iu consequence of which the Police of the city is entirely preserved by the inhabitants, from which duty no one k exempt. We have also ordered an enlistment of all persons from 16 to 50 without an \ exception.

I7.—At seven o'clock this evening, a post arrived with the pleasing intelligence, that the French who were at Saragossa had fled with precipitation and fear, taking the road to Pan:11)014mo ; and that the Arragonese, Catalonians, And Valencians, all valiant, all heroes, and all covered It WI laurels, were closely in pursuit of them. The bravery and va lour of these provinces of the Crown of Arragon were sufficiently known Wore, but now the fame and glory of the nations who had gained immortal honour in history is becoming obscure. Historians a ill no longer cite :he Lacedemonians and the Nu mantians : the brave A rragonese have surpassed ever% thing done by them. The French, having scattered balls and shells over the streets of Saragossa, after so many days siege and horn • bardinent, had become masters of one part of the city, and en tered the street rid! Coro, after having blown up the mount del Torrero, and the excellent work which had been raised on the margin of the canal, the explosion of which shook violently the most solid ; but the iron hearts and bosom; the brave Saragossam:did not shake. Five hundred French i.ad en trenched themselves in the Convent of St. Francis, occupying the last dormitorio. A brave Catalonian headed a troop to di,- lodge the eoemv, and having broken the stairs of the Convent, ever one of the French was put to death. The women fought like Amazons, and mothers were proud of having sacrificed their sons far their country's salvation. The whole of the pro vinces of the kingdom shared in this spirit of heroism. At the same time arrived a post from Aranda, with intelli gence that the French had left Burgos, and that Joseph Bona parte wag at (Molina pala. three leagues beyond the city. Other letters pretend that the French army, on their way to Vittoria, were forced to march hack to B urgos, where it• is sail they are en t re nc hi ng th emse l ves ; but this wants confirma tion. On the evening at' the 6th, intelligence was received that Fer dinand IV. King of N anle, had disembarked nt Algesiras. There are already entered here, Generals Llamas and Cervel lon, and it Is expected that we shall soon have (lerteral Cuesta, with 800 cavalry, and ?,090 infantry, and General Castanos, and a part of his army. The divisions of Resting and Coupigni are gone to Portugal to act against Junot. MADRID GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, Avo. 18. Yesterday the follov. ing dispatches were received from D. ansef de Palafot v Melci, Captain-General of the Army and kingdom 11 A rra!:on " I have the Satisfaction to communicate to your Highness, -~-.: 4TIE NATIONAL REGISTER, ;• ~'...-~----.".- ^ r Me • that the French army, which, during two months, has besieged this city, pursuiug a conduct the most abominahle ever known, filed this morning, leaving behind them vast quantities of prowl. skins, ammunition, and other effects. They atteopted to MK e a fresh assault last night front the small part of which the) had already possession; but the were withstood by on troops with such firmness, that they tied precipitately. Last night I dis patched a division of 4000 men (excellent troops) to cut of the enemy's retreat to Navarra, where they will i.e joined ! , yr other troops, and the armed peasantry of that province. 7he 6000 men who arrived here yesterday from Valencia, united to .:01.0 other troops of army fritin Calatay all, are in par oil of the enemy's rear, to Chastise him, and to prevent his committi ; 11 as he is accustomed to do, new robberies, exactions and atroci ties, in the towns through which he retreat:. " To-Aar public rejoicings have been held, and to-Morrow Te Deum et ill he sung. " It is of great importance that a reunion of D..puties t•cas all the province, of Spain take place as soon as pin.si ble; and i think it would be proper to fix .1 day, which might he the 10th of next September. I have given notice of this to the other Generals and Supreme Juntas throughout the kingdom, anti I give your Highness an intimation of it, that it may bb communicated to the Council.

IVlAnntn, Arc. 19.—0 n the 11th inst. the Supreme Council of Castile i4sitel two edicts; the first declaring null and void the abdication of the Spanish Throat., in favour of the E mpe ror of Fraree and his brother Joseph, with the new Co. snot lion agreed to at Bnyouc ; the second enjoining nil the cities and towns in the kingdom to concur in the solemn proelanust;on the accession of Ferdinand VII.

" On the 10th of April last, a royal dispatch was tranomitted to the domihions in the.lndies, containing two Royal Derree, dated the 19th and 20th of March ; the first, being front our Sovereign Lord Don Carlos IV. in which, for the reasons therein stated, he freely and voluntarily abdicated the Crown, in favour of his sun, the Signor Don Ferdinand, Prince of - Astm rias ; the second from the latter Sovereign, declaring his ac ceptance of the Croviu, and orderin-. that be should he pro claimed with the accustomed solemnities in all the kingdoms of the Indies. " Already at this epoch, in consequence of treason, deceit. lion, and pertily, were the chief fortresses of the kingdom oc cupied by the veteran troops of France; and there were iu the environs of this capital 60,000 men of the same nation, who sotto after took possession of it, under the fraudulent pretext of au in tended march to the maritime parts of the south. From that onsontott the unfortunate Ferdinand was deprived of his liberty, and became actually a prisner. But the re pealed and seductive professions of the Emperor of the French, and his continued false declarations of his anxiety to pay a visit to our Sovereign, his intimate ally, in order to treat of mat ters involving the happiness of both nations, which he carried so far as to forward his equipages, to cause a place of residence to be prepared for him, and even to fix a day fur Iliß entrance into this capital) took by surprize the innocence and good faith of his Majesty, who, anxious to pay him every compliment, made his august brother, the Infant Don Carlos, set out to re ceive hint at Vittoria. The deceitf guest was not found In that city; and with the same good faith, or in consequence of some new perfidious profession on his part, I). Carlos proce.'ded to Bayonne. whence he was to return along with him. Front that city, Napoleon continued to carry on his frauds, pretend. ing engagements of business, and promising, day after day, to realize hi, so long announced ,journey. The King, who anxiously wished for it, in order to dissipate the sospicions which were thickening around him, and to shako off, us soon as possible, the yoke of the troop , . who oppressed aim, resolved to facilitate the interview by repairing to the city of Burros, and thence to Vittoria, under the impression, strengibened by repeated assuraaem,-that its some ant ist these A , °~ :11 K,. ~{ r b V -r, .a , .1 , 4 .
