LONDON, JULY 4. THE intelligence from Spain is,to the 29th nit when Bilboa still held out. A letter from a pro- fessional gentleman on board her Catholic Majesty's steom frigate La Reyna Gebernadora, off Bilboa, dated the 25th of June gives a detailed account of what had happened at Bilboa up to that period: 9,000 of the troops of Valdez reached the neighbourhood of Bilboa on the evening of the 24th ult., the greater part of the CARHST force havwg previously retreated. The autho- rs «S °,U 1 ~OA WERE ON the point of giving up the P ace, when Commodore Henry, commanding the steam frigate (an officer well known in the service of Don redro, having commanded the Donna Maria, of 32 guns, which took the Princess Real, of 60 guns, on the memorable 5th of July), proceeded up the river as far as the draught of water would allow, within two miles of Bilboa. ,He landed 25 marines under Captain Els- worth and Fitzpatrick, and Lieutenant M'D aff, with all the Congreve rockets on board the ship, and two long #O-po.under bow guns, which were mounted upon the most important points to be defended. The moral ettectoi this dash of the Commodore (so says the writer) was electrical upon the troops and inhabitants. Thev resolved to defend the town to the last extremity. As soon as the men were landed, the steam frigate sailed for bt. Sebastian, took one thousand of Pastor's men on board, and returned next day to Bilboa, landed the soldiers at Portugalete, AT the mouth of the river, to protect a small craft in tow of the frigate, loaded with A?

It was by a shot from one of those brave iellows that Zumalacarreguy received his wound (now known TH RROVED MORTAL). He immediately left the field. J ms decided check has been given entirely through g;ve, t, the exertions of the brave marines from the Commo- dore S ship, but with too melancholy a sacrifice, the loss of Captain Fitzpatrick, a brave Irishman, of good family. He was directing Captain Elsworth's atten- tion to some pf the enemy forming, when he was shot through the heart, and died without a groan. Every attention to the wounded has been paid by Mr. Idling- ton, surgeon of his Britannic Majesty's brig Ringdove. aptam Elsworth s gallantry was conspicious, and the overnor of the town has applied to him to remain as s AID-de-Camp. An official report of the loss, signed J^GEON of the Ringdove, is added to the letter.

J The arrixals frotn. Paris can scarcely be said to add to the intelligence previously received from Spain. Nothing further is known as to the fate of Bilboa! There are reports in Paris, caused principally by.the SOMEWHAT unexpected return of Talleyrand to Paris, 8Delhis frequent conferences with the King, of a change in the French Ministry. The Court of Peers resumed their sittings for the trial of prisoners on Tuesday; but yie PRO monstre, as it is termed, appears decidedly to BE DYING by inches.
