Lord William Hervey, Secretary of the British Legation at Madrid,

with two French and two Spanish gentlemen, who travelled with him in the same diligence, were captured by the Cnrlists, on their road from Madrid to Paris, at Alcoba, in the mountains of Soria ; but as it was ascertained that they were not going to join the Christino forces, they were soon released.

• On Saturday last, a great number of very fine hardy horses, which have been purchased by Captain Alexander k orbes, of Firth-gill-house, in Yorkshire, for the service of Don Carlos, passed through Halifax on their road to Southampton, to which port they are going by easy stages to be shipped for Spain.—Halifax Guardian.
