EUROPE.

SPAIN. The revolution in this country has proceeded without any check since the atrocious massacre at Cadiz on the 10th March. It appears that Gen. Freyre was not implicated in the horrid butchery perpetrated on that awful day, by the brutal soldiery upon the unsuspecting inhabitants. He had not received any account of the acceptance of the Constitution by the King, which took place at Madrid only on the 7th, and in proclaiming the Cortes he was yielding to the desire of the populace. The massacre was entirely the act of the soldiers of certain regiments, in a drunken frenzy of pretended devotion to the King, of whose determination to summon the Cortes, from the distance, of course, they were ignorant. These men were closely confined in their barracks after the 10th, until an opportunity occurred of withdrawing them in the night to Port St Mary, in order to avoid the vengeance of the justly incensed people. When they arrived at their quarters in Port St Mary's, their former companions in arms were drawn up to receive them, and expressed the utmost abhorrence of their conduct. They were then, as a mark of ignominy, deprived of their arms and other insignia of a soldier, and marched barefooted to a small village, called Chipiona, there to remain till otherwise disposed of. Among the dead bodies of the victims of the 10th, there were found 43 females and ten children. On the 17th, magnificent funerals were given at San Fernando to the martyrs of that day. The royal decree for proclaiming the Cortes arrived on the 12th; but up to the 19th the shops and the houses remained closed, few persons venturing into the streets; and inercantile transactions were so completely sus pended, that no bills were paid, or indeed offered for payment. On the 20th, the whole of the troops in Cadiz took the oath to the Constitution, the naval service having set the example on the preceding day. The ceremony of proclaiming the Constitution took place on the afternoon of the 21st, at four o'clock, in the Plazza de San Antonio, the chief scene of the massacre of the 10th, and which is in future to be called the Plazza Constitutional. All the chief men of the city attended, and notwithstanding the late terrors they had endured, thousands of ladies were seen walking the streets. A general illumination for three nights was to take place by order.

Meanwhile the king continues to give

VOL. VI.

daily additional testimonies of his sincerity in conforming to the new order of things. He has issued two decrees, the one declaring all Spaniards who shall refuse the new oath, to be incapable of holding public offices, and to be unworthy of remaining in the country; the other, giving effect to a decree of the Cortes, of July 1813, abolishing the exclusive privileges known by the name of the Royal Patrimony. The patriot chiefs are preferred to commands in the provinces.

The celebrated partisan,

called the Empecinado, is second in command in Old Castile, under Count Montijo, the governor general. The gallant Riego and Colonel Quiroga are appointed Marechal-de-Camps to the King. The famous exile Arguelles is appointed the Spanish Minister of Finance. Mina is nominated Captain-General of Navarre. Villa Campa, who, ever since the restoration, has been imprisoned in Catalonia, and who was elected by the people Captain-General of Catalonia, has been confirmed in his appointment.

The Inquisition has disappeared, and the king has appointed its revenues to be applied towards the expences of the state.

The Cortes is ordered to assemble on the 9th of June. The number of members for Old Spain is 149, and for the colonies 30, whose places are for the present to be occupied by natives of South America, now in Spain, for whose election the processes are pointed out in the decree for calling the Cortes.

A royal decrce, dated Madrid, the 25th March, has been promulgated, by virtue of which all individuals implicated by the proceedings instituted against Mina, Porlier, and Lacy, and in other affairs of the same nature, are restored to the enjoyment of all their honours and former stations. A second decree has been dispatched to Don Pedro Avar, Captain-General of Gallicia, and other competent authorities, announcing that the King has resolved that the army of Gallicia, under the orders of Lieutenant-General Count de St Roman, who opposed the revolution, shall be immediately dissolved." The remains of the patriot Lacy, who was shot in Majorca, are to be translated to Barcelona, where preparations are making for solemnising funeral honours to his memory.

But, although the King appears to act sincerely, he does not receive an entire return of confidence. Colonel Infantes, the delegate from Quiroga's head-quarters to the King, has plainly told his majesty that 3 N

the army will hold possession of the Isle de Leon until after the assembly of the Cortes. A severe animadversion on the whole of his conduct has been addressed to the King by the superior junta of Arragon. This document is dated on the 13th ult. and among the signatures affixed to it are those of the Marquis de Lazin, elder brother of Palafox, and of Don Martin de Garay. They loudly execrate the pernicious ministers who betrayed the King, in 1808, into a fatal security as to the designs of Bonaparte; and those who, in 1814, equally deceived him on his return to Spain. The Juntas of Arragon and Gallicia, like the army in the Isle de Leon, are resolute to remain at their post as long as the public interest shall require.

The King of Spain has addressed a long proclamation to the South Americans, calling upon them to return to their allegiance. In this document he confesses the error into which he fell on his restoration in 1814, and admits that nothing but his return to the true principles of the Constitution could have saved the State. He expatiates on the horrors which must have been experienced in Spanish America, from the long and unnatural warfare carried on with such bitterness between persons speaking the same language, holding the same religious faith, and acknowledging the same common origin; and calls on them to lay aside all animosity, to throw down their arms, to return to their connection with the mother country, and to enjoy, in common with her, the blessings secured by the Constitution to all Spaniards.

FRANCE. It appears the ministers of Louis have been defeated in the Chamber of Deputies on the question of the law of elections. The committee to whom the first project for an alteration of the law was referred had decided on its rejection, with the exception of four or five articles, which they thought might, without any disadvantage, be added to the existing law; and the French ministers, being apprised of this determination of the committee, resolved to withdraw their first project, and to present one with such modifications as might render it more acceptable to the chamber. Accordingly, on Monday the 17th April, the Minister of the Interior, pretending that it was now too late in the session to discuss the project already before the chamber, presented a new one, which proposes to retain the present number of deputies, and the existing qualifications as to the electors, but alters the mode of electing the deputies, so as, the minister alleged, to diminish the influence which party acquired, from the indolence of some members of the Electoral Colleges declining to take the trouble of going to the chief places of the departments to give their votes. On the new plan, the electors

of the respective districts are to return to the Departmental Electoral College, a list of candidates, equal to the whole number of deputies, to be supplied by the depart ments, and from these lists the College of the Department is to elect the deputies.

The proposition of the minister having been read, the whole left side of the chamber rose, and vociferated against the irregularity of receiving the communication, as the former project was still before them. The president decided that the chamber was bound by established usage to receive the proposition, and he accordingly declar. ed it received, amid conflicting shouts of opposition and applause. Many members of the left still continued to clamour, and several of them together addressed the president in the most vehement language. The latter put the question of the order of the day, in order to restore tranquillity, but could not succeed. All was vehemence and confusion; several members rushed to the tribune, and struggled to obtain a hearing. General Foy at length succeeded, and observed that the reception of the law was obligatory on the chamber. The uproar still continuing, the president rose, and declared the sitting suspended for the interval of an hour; on which the deputies quitted their seats, and formed themselves into different groupes, when some animat ed debates ensued. At the expiration of the hour, the president again took the chair. The question of the printing and distribution of the communication was then, put, and carried almost unanimously, after which the chamber adjourned.

Numerous prosecutions have been commenced against periodical publications and other works.

The feelings of a French audience, on the subject of the censorship, were lately displayed in a decided manner at the College du Plessis, when M. Raoul-Rochette, just appointed Censor, commenced his lec ture on modern history.

The professor

was silenced by cries of "A bas le Censcur;" and the Committee of Public Instruction have suspended the lectures for a time.

The trial of the assassin of the Duke de Berri has not yet come on. Some weeks since, when the widow of the deceased was walking on the terrace of the garden of the Tuilleries, an individual of res pectable appearance insulted her in the grossest language, when an officer of the royal guard caused him to be apprehended and lodged in the guard-house. But a more atrocious attempt was made on this unfortunate Duchess on the night of the 28th April. A loud explosion was heard in the neighbourhood of the pavilion of the Tuilleries, inhabited by her Royal Highness; and upon an inquiry into the cause, it was found that a petard, with a

lighted fusée, had been thrown beneath the gallery. "The design of the miscreant who threw it (says a Paris paper) appears to have been, by this wicked plan, to cause a shock to an august widow, which might destroy the hopes which France reposes on the birth of a descendant to her illustrious family. Her Royal Highness was awakened by the explosion, but no other accident resulted from the deed."

RUSSIA. The Emperor Alexander has ordered the Jesuits to be expelled from his dominions, in consequence of their renew. ed attempts to proselytize his subjects of the Greek Church.

PRUSSIA.-Letters from Berlin, of the 14th April, state, that, on the preceding day, a tumult of a very formidable nature occurred in that city. About 300 individuals of the working-classes-by what motives impelled, or by whom instigated, is not known-suddenly made an attack on the guard-house, which was occupied at the time by not more than 30 soldiers. It was not till two or three detachments of the military had been brought against them that the insurgents were reduced to submission, when several of the ringleaders were secured and thrown into prison. The same afternoon Baron de Humboldt had an audience of the King, which lasted three hours. By letters of the 16th, from the same place, we learn that M. Jahn has been sentenced to imprisonment for life by the Court appointed to try him; but that the King, in recollection of former services, has remitted the punishment to imprisonment for ten years, and subsequent banishment from the Prussian territory. M. Jahn is about 50 years of age. Two Secretaries of the War Office at Berlin, who had quitted their functions without permission, and had received public notice in the Gazette to resume them, both committed suicide in the neighbourhood of Altona. The reasons for the act are not given.

AMERICA.

UNITED STATES.-New York papers have been received to the 6th April. The decision of the question between the Governments of the United States and Spain, respecting the Floridas, has been deferred. A message has been sent by the President to the House of Representatives, in which he recommends farther forbearance, in con sequence of the friendly suggestions of

Great Britain, Russia, and France, and the distracted state of the Spanish monarchy. Congress has, therefore, postponed the consideration of the question until next Session.

SPANISH AMERICA. According to advices from Jamaica of the 26th of February, Bolivar took possession of Calaboza on the 5th of that month, and soon after entered Ortez, having dislodged the Spaniards, under Morales, from both places, after some hard fighting. Part of Bolivar's army arrived at Savanos del Occumare. Morillo was at Valencia with 4000 men, where he was to be joined by the remains of Morales's force, with the intention of making a grand stand against the further progress of the Venezuleans.

Lord Cochrane has raised the blockade of Callao. It is stated, that he had taken this step in order that he might attempt the capture of some of the Spanish ships of war cruizing in those seas. When the accounts came away, he was in active pursuit of the Prueba, 74, being one of the last ships which sailed from Cadiz in the spring of last year, for the Pacific Ocean.

REVOLUTION AT BUENOS AYRES. Letters have been received from Monte Video, dated 6th of February, communicating the important intelligence, that a revolution had taken place at Buenos Ayres. This important change, it is said, was occasioned by the entrance of Monteneros, or Indian Mountaineers, commanded by Colonel Bustos, who were previously joined by the forces under General Belgrano. The Supreme Director, Puerreydon, having no force sufficiently numerous to render opposition likely to be attended with success, fled from the place, taking refuge on board the American sloop of war John Adams. It is stated farther, that the British vessels of war on that station had approached as near as possible to Buenos Ayres to afford protection to British persons and property. A new Constitution, termed Federal, had been formed, and all the Old Members of the Government displaced, and other persons had been nominated to discharge their several functions. General Rondeau, the Ex-director, had previously left Buenos Ayres, to oppose the army under General Artigas, and it would seem that he was incapacitated from affording assistance to Buenos Ayres by the operations of Artigas.

THE New Parliament met on the 21st of April, and from that day till Thursday the 27th, both Houses were occupied in the

swearing in of members. On Thursday his Majesty opened the session in person; and being seated on a new throne erected
