EUROPE.

SPAIN. Revolution. We have this inonth to record an event of which history affords few examples. The important crisis in the affairs of Spain, which has been so long and so anxiously anticipated, has at length arrived, and Ferdinand, deserted by his troops, and generally by all the leading men in the kingdom, has been compelled to yield to the wishes of the people, by accepting the constitution promulgated by the Cortes in 1812.

On the 7th of March, the King issued a decree, convoking the Cortes; but this not tranquillizing or satisfying the people, the same day he put forth the following de

claration :

VOL. VI.

"Gazette Extraordinary of Madrid, March 8.

"OFFICIAL ARTICLE.

"The King, our Lord, has deigned to address to his Secretaries of all the Departments the following Royal Decree :

"To avoid the delays which might take place in consequence of the uncertainties which the execution of my decree for the immediate convening of the Cortes may experience in Council, and the public will being generally pronounced, I have decided upon swearing to the Constitution promulgated by the General and Extraordinary Cortes in the year 1812.

3 A

"I apprise you of, and you will hasten to publish the present, signed by my royal hands.

"The Palace, March 7, 1820." Next day decrees were issued appoint ing a provisional junta of eleven distinguished persons, with the Cardinal de Bourbon at their head, to whose approval, until the meeting of the Cortes, all acts of the Government are to be submitted; nominating General Ballasteros, who had been recalled from Valladolid, to which he had been banished, Commander in Chief of the Army of the Centre; abolishing the Inquisition; ordering the immediate release of all persons imprisoned, and the recall of all persons exiled for political offences; and re-establishing the Municipal Corporation of Madrid as it existed under the Cortes in 1814. The same day the King took an oath to maintain the Constitution, in the presence of the Provisional Junta and a deputation of the Municipality; he afterwards presented himself in the balcony of the palace, to the view of the assembled people, and repeated the solemnity of swearing to the Constitution.

The order for abolishing the Inquisition, and releasing the state prisoners, was instantly acted upon. The King sent for the Inquisitor-General, told him, that from that moment his functions ceased, and ordered him to set all his prisoners at liberty. This was done. When those who were detained for political opinions were liberated from the prisons, the malefactors endeavoured to profit by the occasion to free themselves. They fell upon three sentinels, and disarmed, and killed them; but the guard quickly arrived, and discharged a volley amongst them. Nineteen were killed, and the others retreated to their

cells.

Numerous other decrees have been issued, having for their object the summoning the Cortes, the security of personal liberty, the liberty of the press, and the appoint ment of individuals to important public offices who enjoy popularity. The King's power is for the present null. Every thing is done by the authority of the Provisional Junta. But still there is an appearance of confidence between him and the constitutional functionaries; and the latter pledge themselves for his sincerity in a manner so sanguine, that it is difficult to question his good faith. Among the proofs of Ferdinand's sincerity, is, his appointing the Prince Carlos Commander in Chief of the Army. This Prince is as much distinguished for his attachment to the Constitution, as his brother Don Francis for his hostility to it. On the 16th inst. all the troops of Madrid assembled on the Prado, by order of the King, and took the oath to the Constitution.

A new Ministry has been formed, con

sisting of Pizarro, Minister for Foreign Affairs; Garay, Minister of Finance; Ballasteros, Minister at War; Agar, Minister of the Interior; Arguelles, Minister of Justice; Villavicencio, Minister of Marine; the Count D'Abisbal, or Count Montejo, Minister Secretary of State. The Ambassadors at the different Courts of Europe have also been recalled, and are to be replaced by individuals well known for their attachment to the new Constitution.

Our limits will not admit of a detail of the occurrences which immediately preceded, and gave rise to this wonderful revolu tion. It appears, that as soon as the real object of the insurgents at the Isle of Leon became known, there was an universal feeling throughout Spain, that their cause was identified with that of the nation, and that not a moment should be lost in mak. ing an united effort to shake off for ever the ignominious yoke of political servitude. The erection of the standard of freedom in Corunna gave the signal to the northern parts of Spain, and the Constitution was in rapid succession proclaimed in the Asturias, Biscay, Navarre, and Arragon. Riego's march upon Malaga produced a similar effect in the south and east. The people rose in Murcia and Valencia, and proclaimed the Constitution, whilst the soldiers either openly joined them, or re fused to imbrue their hands in the blood of their countrymen. The general ferment at the extremities of the kingdom soon reached the centre; the inhabitants of Madrid loudly declared themselves in favour of the restoration of the Cortes, and despotism was bereft of its last hope by the defection of Count del Abisbal, who had withdrawn with a body of troops to Oceana, and there proclaimed the constitutional regime.

Massacre at Cadiz.-Connected with the events above narrated, it is with horror and sorrow that we record an occurrence, but for which, this glorious revolution would have been without a cloud to darken and damp the general joy it diffused. It ap pears that on the 9th March, General Freyre and his staff arrived at Cadiz, and held a meeting of the naval, military, and civil authorities of the place, at which it was agreed that the constitution should be proclaimed the following day. A general illumination took place on the evening of the 9th, and on the morning of the 10th, not less than 60,000 persons of all ranks were collected on the streets to witness the ceremony of establishing the constitution. At this period, to the terror of all, without the least notice or provocation, between 2000 and 3000 intoxicated soldiers rushed from the garrison upon the people, and began indiscriminately to murder inen, women, and children. To murder succeeded pillage, with every species of excess,
