The French newspapers furnish particulars respecting some sharp fighting in
the neighbourhood of Vittoria, between the Carlists and the Royalist troops commanded by CORDOVA. The latter gained the advantage on the field of battle ; but Alms unable to pursue it, owing to the rather unaccountable "straying" of one of his battalions on the march. This missing column the Carlists pretend to have blockaded in Argo- n-Innis. it is evident that the Queen's forces are acting on the defen- sive. Coanova finds it prudent to maintain his quarters in Vittoria; and General EvAss keeps close to Bilboa. MENDIZABAL'S new levy is much wanted.
