On the dismissal of M. Zea, a certain party sheaved extraordinary joy. It was already announcedihat the first step of the Duke del Infantado had been to desire the recal of the French troops, and that the French Ca. binet demanded the payment of the sums which are due to it by Spain. There was not a word of truth jn all these suppositions. People are much mistaken if they suppose that a Royalist like the Duke del Infan tado, who has given incontestable proofs of his fidelity and attachment to his Sovereign, can take precipitate resclutions contrary to the interests of his country; and they are equally mistaken if they fancy that France has no policy in Spin but such as is attached to indivi duals. Facts daily piove the falsehood of such suppo. sitions. We are sure that the Duke del Infantado has declared to the allied Courts that the Spanish Govern ment has for its basis principles, not persons; and that these principles, founded on justice, and profoundly en graven in the heart of the King emanate directly from his Catholic Majesty. He says that though circum stances, and sonic very serious reasons, require some personaltliange, there is no change of the system, and that to suppose otherwise would be an insult to the ele vated character of the King, and wound his delicacy in the tenderest part. The Spanish Cabinet has manifested at the same time that his Catholic Majesty, penetrated with the most lively gratitude, and animated by the purest friendship towards his august al irs, does not desire to impair, and Will not itipair the strict ties which unite them, and that.his foreign policy is invariable. It is added, that the King. placed by Gr D at the head of the great family which composes the Spanish Monarchy, and in a situa• tine to 'know better then any other person its wishes, its true interests, and the remedies to the evils which, have so long harassed it, thinks it. useless to affirm, that , the King will never de r art in • the exercise of its sore reigniy, and the adMinistration of his kingdom, horn that path pointed out by those motives which are, ai.d alWays will be, the sole guides of his conduct. This importan: declaration, drawn up as it is said on PARIS, NOVEMBER 19. The Constitution:lel and the Aristurgue tell us to-day the Cabinet secrets of the Ministers and r:f Kings. The first knows that a mysterious personage has been intro duced to the Minister of Finance, and th.-t his name is the Marquis de Livren.

DUTCH COLONIES. 111 GUR, Noviagara 17. Tne Project of Law for providing for the wants of the East India poss ssions proposes to open a lcan to the amount of 20,000,000 of flot ins at the utmost. For the paymetit of the interest and redemption cf the princi pal, a sum of 1,4.00,000 florins shall be annually set apart f..r the colonial service, commencing from the Ist of January, 1826. The above sum of ,400,000 florins shall be guaranteed as far as necessai y by the State, for the period of thirty years at the utmost. In a Memorial accompanying the Project of Law, the causes of the ex;sting embarrassments are stated, the extent and the nature of the guarantee of the mother country explained, and 14stly, the means pointed out which the ctionies possess to pay the debt without bur dening the mother country. The causes of the embarrassments ate the too great mass of p iper currency, the payment of large sums for goods taken by agreement from the British Govern- ment, the loss of ships laden with pi oduce, Ste. the missing of a ship from Japan with a rich cargo, the great expenses incurred by the erec ion of military works, and of a colonial marine. We find, however, that tho:e burdens would not have produced the pre sent eifficulties, had not sesictits disturbances in the Moluccas, Sumatra, Celebes, and elsewhere, woken out, which rendered expensive military armaments necessary. To these were added the failure of the crops, and con tagious diseases, which carried t if several thousands of the natives, so that many tr acks of land remained un cultivated. Till 1821, says the Nlem.nial, the dist.ess was ascribed in India to tempotat y c.wsec. With this ilea everything was done on a large scrip, and even coiisi• derable doinains alien-IN/ in tinnier years had been re purchased; but in that year a considerable fall in the price of coffee taking place, reduced at once the large stock in the bands of Government to one hall of its value, so that a great ernbal rassment ensued, which rendered it n.:ces.sary to i:sne paper bearing nine per cent. interest, in order to support the paper curreacy. All these tircimlstances produced in October the conviction that it WAS necessary to make Eleat retrench ments, and it wars resolved to negotiate a loan in Ben gal, a project which was regulated by the Government at home, partly cin account of the high interest (pro bably eight per cent.), and partly because it was feared that the produce might go to foreign mei chants, to the detriment of the Netherlands._ 'rtie rejection of this loan in Bengal naturally brought with it an obligation to give assistance from the mother country, and that for the sum he proposed 15 millions of sicca rupees (20 millions of florins), a sum by means of which it is hoped to re• establish the finance. of India, where nine millions-of paper currency are already in circulation, and specie becomes more and more scarce. Respecting the sec,nd point, the Memo, ial states that the annual sum of 1,400,000 &tins will suffice, at the pre• sent rate of interest, to pay off the 20 millions in 3J years, if not earlier. Respecting the third point, it is obs-rved that the guarantee of the mother country is requited oily for the satisfaction of the Indies, but that it is to be confidently expected that the Indian Treasury will be able to provide for the annual sum of 1,400,000 flo rins for the payment bf interest and capital. From 1817 t 01824, the revenues amounted to aboutls2 millions, and the expenditure to about 151 millions. The estimate lot 1824 was 27 millions for the revenue, and 'Ai millions ' for the expenditure; but by the falling of the prices of coffee, there was a deficiency of nearly a million and a halt in the fit st six mouths of 1824. Till 1819, the revenue (-se eft d the expenditure : at that time the troubles is Polentbang and the cholera tuorbus had a visible efl c t, the establishments remained on too expensive a looting, and the expenses were too great. When the causes are removed, to which end his Majesty has adopted energetic measures, the effect will ceas.:. These measures are the determination of a quinguennini budget f. , r'lndia, from which no deOat. tote shall be made ; the suspension of public works f five years; the abolition of expensive boards for civil works, Stc..sirrtplifications of the adminstration ; dimi nution of persons employed in most of the offices, and withdrawing a number of payments; limitations in the appointments of office's, of whom no more are to be sc.' hum home till they are asked for from India. It is calculated Nut the Boats! of Works costs annually 800,000 of 900,001) florins; that the interest of the public currency, which is to be called in. was 400,000, su that the saving of these two branches will FROM THE SUPPLEMENT TO THE MADRAS GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JULY 12. His Majesty's ship Liffey, from Rangoon, the 16th ult. has anchored in the Roads since our last report. • Our intelligence from Rangoon, by the Liffey, is similar to that received in Bengal—operations v, era suspended, but no prospects of peace. There was a report that Sir Archibald Campbell was about return. ing to Rangoon for a short time. It was also said that 300 hackerres and the it cattle had been captured ; pos sibly the oil tern which had reached Calcutta. The Nerbudda icg considered out of time, two ships had been sent in quest of her. A report it appears had reached Calcutta, that Sir Arc' ihald Campbell was leaving Prome, with same light Irvin, in order to effect an interview with General Moir ison. • FROM THE CALCUTTA JOHN BULL Or JUNE 29. The 1 test letters we have seen from Promo, come down to the 7th inst. at which time the troops ender Sir Archibald Campbell wrre in great health with abund ance of all necessariev, but no prospect of a very speedy employment in the field. It was said that the llurmans had strongly stockaded themselves at some distance above Pionre ; but that there was no intention on the part of the General to disturb them, until the force could move to its ulterior destination. Captain Snodgrass; the Military Secretary of Sir Archibald, is !tautly expected in the Carron, and is reported to be coming round, in consequence of some impoi rant points con nected with the command of the naval branch of the armament which required adjustment. FROM OTHER SALCUTTA PAPERS. We have s en letter.: from Rangoon to the sth inst. —They are extremely meagre of intelligence. They mention the receipt of letters from Prome, of the Ist inst. a,!sling :—" No news; abundance of bullocks for slaughter and draught to be had in the country—no chance of peace." In this day's report the arrival of his Majesty's ship Tamar was announced. She left Rangoon the 18th instant. We have waited till the last moment in expec tation of Ewing favoured with some accounts from the army under Sir Archibald Campbell: but with the exception of everything being quiet at Prome, and elsewhere in the vicinity of that position, nothing parti cular has transpired. His Majesty's 51..0p Sophie, Captain E. Blackney, has arrived in the river in a very leaky state. She sailed from Rangoon on the 16th instant, in company with his Majesty s store ships Liffey and Tamar, which she parted with•on the 18th, in the. Gulf of Ma: taban, in a eatroale. We have heard nothing of importance from the for ce at Arracan by Vie Highland Chief. 'The European troops are said to he in better health than the native, and less ..,ffectcd by the climate. A severe gale had been experierced n the coast of Arracan. FROM THE CALCUTTA JcHN LULL CF JULY 2.

The district in which this town is situated, is sometimes called the Muggaloo or Meckly country, and is the nearest communication be tween the N.E extremity of Bengal, and the N.W. quarter of the Burman territories; but the route has never before been traversed by Europeans. The town was captured by the Burrrians in 1774, and has ever since remained tributary tfs them. An intercourse subsists between it and the Province of Assam, for, in '1794, the British detachment which went to Gzrgong, the cal.ital of Assatii, saw there a body of cavalry, which had attired from Nlunnipore. I'ltOME, MAY 3. _ There appears to be no chance of peace, after all that has been said on the subject. Nine hundred and tiny men, composed cif all the flank companies of the European R-giments here, I ave been ordered off to 'bongo, a place about a hundred miles in advance of this, on the-road ter Ava, where it is supposed the enemy have taken up a strong position; besides this, there is a troop of the Body Guard and two field pieces, the .command of which has been given to Co lonel Godwin, of the 41st Regiment. They march on the sth, and are to be supplied with fifteen days provi sions. We have heard nothing more from Ava since Sarawaddy's Prome is a miserable place, and the troops are miserably housed, for one-half have no houses at all, and the other half houses, but no roofs to them. The letter then goes on to ray, that the supplies are scarce, all the fiotiila had been sent back to Rangoon for provision', and it was supposed the Army would advance when they rem ned, if the rains did not prove too strong.
