Hating received orders to trait the capital, he presented himself to the King. and demanded, as the reward of his services, the Superintendence of the Pblice of Cuenca, with the mili tary command of that place. The King referred him to the Minister at War, who having probably received secret instructions, refused his request, and told him it was the King's pleasure that he should return to his Convent. The Trappist flew into a passion; the Minis ter tailed him a Liberal and a Freemason, and had him turned out of.the room, and the King immediately or 'dered a Colonel and fifty cavalry to escort him bad; to his Convent, and to deliver him into the hands of his Superior. if this be true, and a new struggle should arise in Spain, there is no cloak how the Trappist would use the great influence which he possesses over 'the minds of the people. He has probably now discovered that an absolute King is not the best of Kings, and might feel disposed to assist in pulling down the brazen idol which he has contributed to erect. Ferdinand had; issued several Decrees imposing various duties,and esta blishing new regulations, especially sespecting the im portation of salt fish. The following from a private correspondent, con firms the intelligence from Bayonne, as to the restless state of Spain: " MADRID, FEBRUARY " The amnesty seems deferred sine die. A iew days ago it was the general.talk; now all is silent again. The Ministers of the Holy Alliance are p s uzzled about that, and about everything else; they have their conk ferences together almost as often as the King's Ministers have their juntas; they have their plans for governing the country, very nicely arranged upon paper, but they find their measures produce no good, on the contrary aff.tirs appear worse and worse. They seem to suppose, an extended amnesty would too much dissatisfy the great mass of Royalists, already so much disappointed in their expectations, and the situation of the actual Go verninent be thereby rendered more perplexing than it is. 44 To keep the Royalists in order and to enforce mea sures, an army is requisite, and there is no money to create an army. As it is, the Government can do no thing more than issue Decrees in the Gakette, which are either attended to or not, according to circumstances and the disposition of the people. For example, the Cu rate Merino was ordered to disband his followers, or soldiers, as they are called, in the manner that the other partizan Chiefs have done t he was willing to do so, but the Officers and msn refused, withont receiving their pay ) and a continuation of it, together with their rank, in fact, to be considered as troops of the line. The Go vernment is unable or unwilling to accede; there is no disposable force, or any to be relied on; the consequence is, the French have to deal with the Curate, and fourre-, giments of infantry and cavalry, with artillery, marched !;nit yesterday in pursuit of him and his followers, in the direction of Segovia. Some say his force is 2,000, others 7,000 men. If Merino is true to his men, he may give the French a great deal to do, not by fighting with them, but in the Spanish guerilla fashion. He is upon his own ground, and in the midst of his friends. " The Trappist also has been very unruly, refusing to 'leave Madrid, notwithstanding repeated orders-a-pro bably he made promises to his men which the Govern ment will not enable him to perform. In his last in terview with the Minister of War, he went down upon his knees, as his last resource, imploring him to let hint remain, but the Minister told him obedience was the first duty, both in the soldier and the filar, and sent him off the next morning to his convent with an escort. " The disbanded soldiers of the other partisans do not travel to their homes very contentedly. They say, if they turn out again, they will know who they have to fight for, not for priests and friars, nor for one who will turn them adrift so easilu n they had better have t fought for themselves, and they would have got something. I suppose, by , and bye, this will be the case that they will turn out for themselves on all the high ways, and live by plunder. " The Genetic of to-day brings a decree for the re establishment, or rather the more efficient duty of the internal Custom-houses, which had been done away by the Constitution, in all the principal towns, as also the contributions, or head-money, of Castile and Leon, which was collected by a duty on five of the chief ar ticles of consumption. The Government is at its wits end for money, and must resort to every means possible to squeeze it out of the people. As to anything like justice or good faith, that is quite oat of the question; if any money can be laid bold of, by hook or by creek, there is no such thing as giving it back again. All the tricks and shifts imaginable are practised to evade the most reasonable and just claim in the world ; and I am afraid I shall have shortly to report the case of an. Eng• lishrnau, whose property was seized by the Officers of the Government, under the idea Mat it belonged to Con stitutionalists and the produce of the sale applied .to cover the nak edness of the troops, and whose application for payment of the value of the effects has hitherto been answered by general observations, that such cases natO rally happen in revolutions, and that be should proceed against the Colonel of the regiment who had ordered the sale, who was the responsible person, and so 811: The Colonel, probably, only gets four months' pay Out of the twelve, and if he can cover his own nakedness with it, it is about as much as be can do. t. • "I understand a contract has been entered into with the Government for the supply of 12,000 of the disor derly Irish, for the purpose of keeping orderly the Spa nish people ; the officers to be taken from the English ,half-pay list ; which they give up to come on Spanish full pay. I suppose they will all be Irishmen who commit this blunder. The British Government will Le a great gainer by this measure, as the half-pay list will be so much decreased, and the famous Captain Rock, it is supposed, will be completely deserted. The contractor, of course, niust be from 'the sod,' but I don't know if he's wild. There can be no obstacle in the way of the fulfilment of this contract between the two high con tracting parties, since the sine qua non is quite out of it." • . Made by the Naiad to weigh. and In standing ant of the Bay. about half-past three, we observed * strangetin the oiling. which we in stantly made the signal for condi* on on on the opposite tack. Soon after, when she had got on our reatieer beam. the Naiad hoisted her ensign, ithich was followed bee the 'corvette hoisting a large Al swine ensign and pendant. The Naiad then fired a shot to bring her to. when she - instantly returned It. The signal No. 3, being then made, to tack in ehoce, we immediately tacked, and opened our broadside on the elute; and which We did not cease firing, except when the Naiad was passing between us and the enemy, until we laid him on-board. Soon after the Naiad passed, she went ahead of 41 the enemy, and tacked and stood out found her. By this t ime we g ot nearly tafd-arm ind yard-arm to the vessel, and by the well direct area mond and grape, many other men were killed and woun . —Captain Burton, now perceiving th at the Naiad pa made is signal of recal, gave directions to toad with gripe and catthiser e , Snake ready to board, and, when** was ready, to give the hit . We kept away for the guns to bear e on inffing-to again to b we had so much way that we shot a-bead close under the enemy's bows : orders were instantly given to heave all aback, in order to bring the enemrabowsptit over the Camelion's taffrail; the enemy pencilling this statlituvre, put his helm a-weather to run to lee%vard, when orders were given to drop the peak, bear round the head yards, and fill, to at kin again. In a few minutes the Camelion run her best bower into the enemy's fore-chains, and instantly boarded ' with all hands. Finding the crew of the corvette had run below, Lieutenant Been" who conducted himself in the most gallant manner, was left on board to take charge of her, the Captain having returned to take her in tow. In the meantime, when in the act of clearing the ship, Captain Spencer stood in, and ordered the anchor to he cat away." THE EVENING ►7TAR. LONDON. MONDAY. MARCH 8, 1824. THE FUND& STOCK EX CHANG R.

By an Express from Paris, we have received the . Journal des Debats and Etoile of Saturday, but they contain no intelligence of any interest to the English Reader, being principally filled with observations on the elections. The Princess of Corms appears to be much worse, as when her brother, the Doc de BOURBON ♦i sited her on Friday evening, she did not know him. It is stated, in an article from Rome, that the new Ambassador from Portugal had arrived There; and that the Englishman who had been wounded in the streets, was in great danger. By the arrival of a Lisbon Mail, we have Papers to the 21st ult. They are almost exclusively filed with extracts from the English, French, and Spanish Jour nals. The Gazette of the 18th ult. contains the follow ing account of the ceremony of investing the KING of PORTUGAL with the insignia of the Russian Order of St. Andrew : LISBON, JANUARY- Is. Ili: Majesty desiring to receive with becoming poop and distinction the investiture of the Order of St. An drew, which his Majesty the Emperor of Russia has . sent to him, and also to his Royal Highness the Infant Don Miguel, by Baron Strogonoff, his Majesty was .pleased to appoint for the ceremony Monday, the 16th instant, at two o'clock, in the Palace of N. S. d'Ajuda. At the hour appointed, the Court being assembled, the Baron Strogonoff, accompanied by M. de Borel, the Charge d'Affaires and Consul-General of the Em peror of Ruisia, and by his suite, was introduced in the usual form, and addressed his Majesty as follows: " Stara—Commissioned by the Emperor, my august Sovereign, to deliver to your Majesty the insignia of the Orders of Russia, I consider myself as exceedingly happy in being the organ to express to your Majesty the sentiments of lively affection and true friendship, of which his Imperial Majesty is happy to give your Ma jesty a brilliant proof. The Emperor adds to it the congratulations, the sincerity of which is already known ,to your Majesty. " I beg your Majesty to believe that I am deeply sensible of the good fortune of fulfilling so honourable a commission, and of presenting to your Majesty the ►omage of my respect, when ybur Majesty, restored to the wishes of your people, sees all Europe rejoice in their happiness, and in their love for the august person of your Majesty." To which his Majesty replied : " I 'mice with sensible'pleacure the insignia of the Orders of Russia which his Majesty the EMpercn, your august Sovereign,* has thought fit to send me; and I accept them as a new pledge of the friendship which SP 4IN. The trench Papers last received, contain intelligence from Mashie' ) to the 26th ult, by which it appeals that Ferdinand had unexpectedly changed the composition of the Council of Castile, which formed the highest body in Spain, and, IA hell once appointed, had hitherto' been considered torrernoveable by the Royal authority. Ont of twenty inenihers, of which it consisted, fourteen had been dismissed": only two of whom preserved the title of honorary Counsellors, with their usual salaries ; the other twelve being reduced to the condition of pri vate individuate. thoughlralf their pay has been allowed them. The motives tut so strong a measure are not mentioned, and as the name of the ten new Counsellors who had been appointed by the King to fill the place of those removed are not given, it is impossible to anti cipate what effect may be produced by the change in the .policy of the Government, which had hitherto been in at great measure infloenced, if not guided, by the authority of the Council of Castile. • According to an article published in the Mgdrid Garette of the 24th, it would appear that there was no'alteration in the views of the Government towards the South American States. This article is intended to dissuade the European Sove reigns" from opposing the mad wish of Ferdinand to attain* the " reconquest' of the emancipated colonies. It assures them that " time will chew the iu . jury which they will do themselves, if they hinder the King of Spain from being also King of tyre Indies?' From this it might almost be inferred that the COlllinelltai Non ers had not onlyilifuted to interfere in Ferdinand's behalf with the Colonies, but had intimated an intention of taking mea -1 airs (probably 'a recognition of Smith American inde pendente) which would hinder the execution of his plans. Then tOltows.an exaggensted, and in many places a completely false statement of the politieal situation of r‘lexico, and the dissentious which are said to exist in that goat ter, from which the following svise lauclusion is drawn: " that if Spain abandoned iss possessions in America, the subiects of the European Governments would find no tradelo curly on, escept with the In .iliattsb who might sell their Fetiches and articles made 'sof feathers, to adorn their cabinets, of cut iosities! r The article concludes with a strowieshortation not to delay " the reconcleest of the prownais beloning . to Spain, as the trio!eit is ifelayed themoreNtifficult would it be to restore them to the flourishing state which they were when the Revolution infected them with its poidlneel breath Ir' It • also manifests something like' imptience and resentment of the interference of *motel% who lost, in seeking the causes of t h e evil f - aie time which the master might have employed in tanedying it." 7 .'~' Ahir. • 1. iSie ,* LATE BATTLE OFF ALGIERS. The spirited and gallant contest between his Majesty's brig Camelion, of ten .18-pounders, and 75 men, and the Algerine corvette Tripoli, of eighteen 18-pounders, and l'2o men, almost within gun-shot of the batteries at Al giers, contributed so highly to support the well-earned character of our Navy , that a more detailed account of it cannot but be gratifying. The following extract from the private log of one of the Officers, will shew the merits of the respective parties in this sudden and suc , cessful rencontre : " AT ATiCIIOII, INACCIVISBAT, " Ou the 31st ulz. min after noon ' the Dey gave his final ultima tum, in th e negative to our demands; whereupon the signal was • • ~..... •• • N. ; A•iii4.ll, ~: ~ -.~:~ has always subsi.teJ bets e'en us, awl which cannot fail to become more and more consolidated. " I desire you to assure his Imperial Majesty, that I have beard with lively gratitude the expression of the congratulations uhich you, Site, have * offered the in his name, and that I highly value these testimonies of es. m from a Sovereign who.by so many eralttid quali- ties has gained the admiration of the whole.universe. In choosing you, Sir, for this mission, his Imperial Ma. jesty enhances the value of the present which he sends me."' The Baron replied, that he would report to the Emieror what his Majesty had said. He then presented e Infant Don Miguel with the Order, with a suitable address, to which his Royal Highness replied. When the ceremony was concluded, the forts and tle vessels in the harbour fired a salute, and Baron &TO gonoff retired with the same ceremonies as he had been: introduced. Dutch Papers to the 3d instants and Hamburg!) Journals to the 28th ult.-reached us this morning. One of them contains an article froth St. Petersburgh, stating that-4 , Letters from Constantinople say, that a firman from the Sultan, shortly to be issued, will an nounce a general amnesty for all the Greek Provinces and Liands now in insurrection against the Porte." By the arrival of the Leeward bland Mail, which left Barbadoes on the 10th ult. dispatches have beet received, which state, that general tranquillity prevailed in these Islands; and mention also the safe arrival there of the 27th Regiment,. from Ireland, and the 99d, front Gibraltar. We understand that dispatches were yesterday re. cei•ed at the Admiralty, from Vice-Admiral Sir HA aft v NEALE, dated the 25th of February, off Algiers, where Sir nanny was maintaining a strict blockade of that port, in which it was supposed the whole Algerine force was collected. Although it is evident, from time continuation of hos* tilities, that the Dav had not made the full concessions required of him, it is understood that (on the appearance of the British Admiral) he had.directed some European captives, lately made, to be placed on the footing of prisoners of war, although they had up to that timc been treated as slaves. Although the conduct of the British Government in abstaining from interfering in the dispute between Prance _and Spain, and in affot ding to the latter country . the opportunity of being the first to recognise the inde pendence of her late Colonies, has met with the appro bation of all parties, yet there are some chivalrous souls who think we ought to assist the Greeks, and wehave been reproached with manifesting an indifference ill befitting a great and a free nation, and have been re ferred to the' United States, as a proof how much mote warmly their cause is espoused. Unfortunately for these Gentlemen, the last Papers from the United States, which are to the Bth ultimo, spew that the Legislature there has followed our example, although some indivi duals were very hasty in condemning it. The subject has, however, greatly agitated the public mind in Ame rica, and even in Congress there have been some very violent collisions.of opinion. The debates in the Congress are given at great length in the American Papers. They were, first, on a reso lution to provide sufficient funds for the maintenance of a political mission to the States of Greece; second, en an amendment to that resolution, pledging the Ame rican Legislature no further than to a declaration of its sympathy with the Greek past iots in their struggle. The inference to be drawn from a perusal of these volumi nous discussions, is not unfavourable to the knowledge i acuteness, or general ability of the disputants. Those who are willing to confer upon the Greeks the pro posed indications of national countenance and friend ship, enforced with much vehemence the fit appeals to liberty and humanity by which public sentiment might be excited ; while some of their - opponents rested on the farewell advice of WASIIINGTON, Ifil.:••thitt, "the Re public should cultivate relations of commerce with all the world, but form as few political connexions as pos+ Bible with,any foreign Powers." This text, which on the whole is a wistone, would un-> questionably have justified a rejection of any premature entanglement with European politics ; but a far less dig nified ground was taken by one or two of the speakets, who seemed to regard the danger arising from the threats of the Holy Alliance against everything American arstniter imminent enough, without enhancing it by a needless intrusion of the feelings or public functionaries of the United States into contests in the heart of the Old Woad. After several adjournments, and resumption% of the debate, in the wine of which the counting house policy" (as one speaker termed it) of England to wards Greece w as bitterly declaimed against, that same policy seems to have been considered no less convenient to imitate than to abuse ; for the House, on the 26th of January, adjourned without adopting either motion, or so much as formally recording a single kind sentiment on behalf of the Greek sufferers in the cause of Chris tianity and freedom. The debates had; towards their close, degenerated into much personal coarseness and acrimony, which makes the compromise agreed upon by both parties a circumstance of still greater satpriset The Bill for building ten additional sloops of war is likely to undergo some slight modifications in the Senate' An Amendment was moved on the 27th of January, that for the original sum, proposed for this object. lialf of it should be substituted ; but the discussion was postponed. The proposed Tariff encounters great opposition; and, At a numerous meeting held at New York, several reso lutions nett cariied, strongly deprecating its tendency.
