We understand that orders have been issued from the Treasury, to the LORD CHA.U3ERLAIN, the Board of Works, and all to whose different departments the business belongs, to prepare forthwith an estimate of the expenses that may be necessary for the Coronation of the KING, which is to take place in the approach ing summer. We have this morning received letters and news papers from Gibraltar to the 19th ultimo. The sub joined letter, which notices the massacre perpetrated in Andalusia by the military under General FRETRE, contains some particulars not noticed in the accounts previously received. The Bishop of Caorg, whether truly or falsely, we have not yet the means of know ing, is reported, in the accounts received at Gibraltar, to have been the instigator to this atrocity. General Joys CYDONNEL, the same who endeavoured to en trap the Insurgent Chief, Rtzco, has been deserted by 11:s troops, and is now a fugitive in the neighbour hood of Sr. Roque. The accounts from Madtid in the .Gibraltar Chronicle are not later than those which have already been laid before our Readers. We sub jo:n a letter from our Correspondent at Gibraltar: " GII3RALT.IR, MARCH Is. " On the 9th inst. a dreadful massacre took place at Cad:z. General Eanyar. (who had been recently ap plinted Captaiii-Gencral of Andalusia) invited Qt': ao&A (the Insurgent Chief) to enter and assist at the ceremony of swcaring to the Constitution. Everything was prepared, and th:.• troops under arms in the square of St. Antonio. A few minutes previous .to the ceremony, the regiment Of Grids suddenly shouted Vfva e! Rey, and fired on the populace, of whom about 500 or 600 were, it is said, killed and wounded. The • Bishop of Cadiz is supposed to have been the instigator —he has been confined, and, it is supposed, will be brought to punishment. Every town in this Proirince has proc!aimed the Constitution, and the greatest part of them did it bcfoie the King's order • arrived. General NIIRANDA, the late Governor of Ceuta, and General VENEGAS, of Corunna, are in this garrison ; the latter was brought into the Bay a - prisoner on board a Spanish ship, on board which lie had been brought from Corunna, having beers expelled thence by the Insurgent party ; he was libe rated from the vmel at the remonstrance of G-aneral Dos. General uTSZE O'DoNNEL is a fugitive ;n the neighbourhood of St. Roque, having been entirely de;:erted by his troops. Ilis wife is in Gibraltar, and it is rumoured that she has been the authc.r of a report of a vesiel from the Coast of Africa having allnwed to communicate with the Isla de I._,ton i , without the enforcement of the quarantine regulations ; in consequence of w!lich the Governor (General Dos) has placed a cordo.; which still re mains, to the great aanoyance of the inhabitants, and iljory to trade.—The Ante:ican frigate Guer t;,:re, and big Spark, sailed up the Mediterranean On the 13th, and on the ith the Franklin, 80 guns, Commodore STr.wAnr, for America. On the ISth the corvette Peacock, was lying, at Gibraltar.' The KING of PRUSSIA is said to have been seized wi;.ll so much alarm on receiving the first account of tl.c neir turn which affairs were taking in Spain, that he instantly prohibited every allusion to Spain in the Prussian Journals. The cause of this alarm cannot, we presume, be any secret to our Readers. The Spaniards have nobly recovered a Constitution which was taken from them by their King ; the Prussians have to get from their King that Constitution which years ago he promised to confer upon them—a pro mise which he solemnly and deliberately confirmed at the Congress of Vienna, in 1814, but which has item - ye' been fulfilled ; nor have satisfactory reasons been given to his people for the delay. The example of a nation vindicating their rights is a catching thing; and his PRUSSIAN MAJISTY shews the usual policy of arbitrary power, in veiling it as much as possible from the eyes of his subjects. A similar alarm. but attended with a more salu till effect, seems to have spread itself to other quar ter& The Grand Duke of HESSIS-DAIRDISTADT has ;.ist issued, with all the appearance of some haste .tbout it, an Act, establishing a Constitution for the different territories, old and new, which are consoli dated under his dominion. " When the Germanic Confederation," says his Highness, " was established, and when the hopeeof better and more tranquil times appeared about to be realized, we were among the Viinces of Germany, who declared spontaneously, at Vienna, in the face of the world, their firm resolve i~ i I .1 . . . • to give to their people a new Constitution of States, suitable to the spirit of the times. Accus tomed to regard as sacred, and to hold our word inviolable,' we Would have proceeded immediately to the execution of this promise, if, at the same epoch, a very important change in our possessions had not supervened. We were convinced, that upon an exchange of provinces, the first care of a reasonable Government should be, to learn exactly the situation and the wants of a province newly acquired ; and that Assemblies of States could not be attended with any advantageous results as long as the Government did not know perfectly the wants of its new subjects, nor until the latter were led by expetience to attach themselves cordially to their new Sovereign." His Htorirrass goes on to state, that he Bad in the meantime entrusted to alnumber of-enlightened in dividuals, the preparation of such a Constitution as it would be proper ultimately to adopt—that in spite of the greatest exertions the work is not yet • com pleted—and that his Highness is convinced that it would be well if the Convocation of the States could be deferred till next year ; but, as things are, (the Revolution in Spain, &c.) he has resolved to give them a new Constitution immediately. The Act then proceeds to lay down the heads of the new Constitu tion. The States of the Grand Duchy are to form two Chambers. The first Chamber is to be composed of the Princes of the Grand Ducal family; the heads of the Seig norial families; the senior of the family of the Barons of Riedesel, who possesses the dignity of Hereditary Marshal; the Catholic Bishop of the country ; a Protestant Ecclesiastic, who is to be named by the KING for life, and to have the dignity of Prelate; the Chancellor of the University of the country, or his substitute; and ten distinguished Burgesses, Who are to be nominated by the Kilso, and to be Mem bers of the Assembly for life. The second Chamber is to be composed of six Deputies from the Nobility, ten Deputies from the chief towns, and 34 Deputies from the rest of the country, divided into districts. —The Members of the first Chamber must be at least 25 years of age, those of the - second, 36. In neither Chamber are proxies to be allowed. The Elections are to be sexennial, but Members may be re-elected. The right of convoking, proroguing, and dissolving the States, is to pertain exclusively to the Grand Duke. Ilis Ilighness is to assemble the Estates at least once in every three years, but should he dissolve them when once • assembled, before they have finished the business before them, he is to be bound to convoke them anew before the lapse of ano ther year. The Ministers - of the Grand Duke are to have free access to both Chambers, but to hare no right of voting in either. Such are the leading features of this Constitution, as far as we are yet in possession of it—for part only -has been published. It beau the promise cf very considerable liberality, and its appearance at the present moment is an event on which we may fairly congratulate not only the people of Hesse Darm stadt, but the people of GeFmany at large. The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived this forenoon. They contain nothing additional from Spain, and are quite barren of domestic news. The Constitutionnd has an expiring ji-n cresini! on the Liberty of the Press, under the title of the. " lionible Danger of Redding," dated from the " Palace of Stupidity !" French Five per Cents.—Saturday, 73fr. 70c. We have plca3ure in stating, that the Expedition, under the direction of Sir W. KIER, from Ilamhay, against the Arab Pirates in the Gulph of Persia, has been crowned with entire success. The chief seat of these desperate men, where their marine rendez vowed under the protection of a strong fort, has been taken and destroyed. We arc concerned to state that the lVfarquis of' !karma, is reported to have died last night. A poet, MaNum JOSEPH QUINTANA, has been ap pointed President of the Supreme Junta of Censor ship of the Press in Spain. A private Lezter from Cadiz, dated March'l4, says, " The carnage and plunder on the 10th, com menced in the morning, to the cry of Live the king !' and continued till eleven o'clock on the fol lowing day. General Freyre, in person, used every endeavour to restrain their violence, but without effect ; the troops lost all subordination, and at three o'clock he was compelled to quit the City. This cruel excess has emanated from the Commanders of the Garrison, in revenge for Freyre not having officially communicated to them his intention of taking the ' oath to the Constitution in public. History furnishes no instance of an outrage of so violent a nature, as the people certainly had not ventured to manifest any external symptoms of joy until they were authorized to do so - by their Governors. Before to-day none of the doors of the houses have been opened, and scarcely a person has been seen in the streets. All are cl.amorous for vengeance. Such is the hatred to the soldiery, that every one who ventures out alone dies, and more than thirty have already shared, that fate. In general, the soldiers have not ventured to break into any private houses, because they are, for the most part, very . strongly barricaded, and they feared being fired upon from within. A few of the shops, particularly those for the sale of provisions or fruit, and which were secured in a slighter manner than the private houses, have been forced, and in them many of the soldiers passed their time enjoy ing the fruits of their plunder. After all, it is but too well understood that the soldiers are less guilty of this atrocity in the comparison than the 'Officers, it being asserted that they have mutually, and in a brotherlike manner, been sharers in thespoil and pil lage. The Civil Authorities here continue the same 1 as before." hRICHTON. ARM. s. The Kura this morning took a lengthened pr& . l menade in the Palace gardens, and Appeared in good health and excellent spirits, Sir BENJAMIN BLOOM FIELD returned to the Palace about eleven o'clock this morning. The Prince of Hasse HOMBOURG ar rived soon after four o'clock this•afternoon. The Earl of EGREMONT has the honcair of dining with his MAJESTY and Suite to-day. The Royal Party will be increased in number after dinner. The Band, as usual, are-in attendance. Count CARRAMAN, Baron E. DECAZE, Mr.WATSON TAYLOR, Sir J. KEMP, and LYNDON Evict Ara, Esq. are among the last irrivals at the York Hotel. The Hon. Mr.WARD, the son of Lord DUDLEY and WARD, came in this afternoon.— The weather to-day has 'been brilliant, but with a biting wind. The Steyne this afternoon was gaily decorated with promenaders, and the excellent Band of the 51st enlivened the walk with their melodies. Yesterday, her Royal Highness the Duchess of CLARENCE took an airing in her carriage in the Regent's Park. Yesterday, her Royal Highness the Duchess of, GLOUCESTER visited the Princess SOPHIA, and their Royal Highnesses took a carriage airing in the Park, attended by Lady CAMPBELL. The Marquis and Marchioness of LANSDOWN gavel a grand entertainment on Monday, to the Duke of HAMILTON, the Earl of Doxouoitmonr, Lord and Lady HOLLAND, Lord HUTCHINSON, and a large , party of distinguished pettonages, at Lanstlown House, Berkeley-square. Yesterday, Princess ESTERHAZT, accompanied by her three children and Lady in•waiting, left Chandos House in an open landau with four horses, and pro ceeded to Greenwich ; in the evening her Highness returned to town to dinner. The Duke and Duchess of NORTHUMERRLAND left their temporary residence in St.James's-square, yes terday morning, for Langley Park, where their Graces will make some stay. Monday afternoon, at four o'clock, Lord CASTLE REACH, accompanied by Lord ANCRAM, arrived at his house in St. James's-square, from the seat of the Earl of LONDONDERRY, North of Ireland. Yesterday, Lord and Lady CASTLEREAGH enter tained a select party with an elegant dinner, at their house in St. James's . ..square.

GEORGE AGAR ELLts has left the Duke of BEnroan's seat, Woburn, for the Duke of DEVON SHIRE'S seat, at Chiswick. Mits. Ticii E.— This fashionable Lady gave a sump tuous dinner, at her house in St. James's-place, on Monday ; and in the evening she had a card party. The company did not exceed fifty persons. They assembled at ten, and broke up at one o'clock. BURLINGTON Howl', CIII , ,WICK.—His Grace the Duke of Devoxsmaz has retired to his magnificent villa for a month ; wherein, last week, commenced a series of dinner parties and concerts. Since the ac cession of the grounds the property of the Lady MART CORE, lately deceased, the Duke has expended considerable sums on their improvement. The most extensive hot and succession houses have been erected —pet haps the finest specimens of taste and judgment in the kingdom. The pineries will be removed from Chatsworth to this place. MARLSOROUGH-House.—Great preparations are making for the opening of the town residence of his Royal Highness the Prince LEOPOLD of SASE CO BOURG. The Great Hill and the magnificent Ban queting Room, were to have been illuminated last week, when a grand dinner was to have been given : it was intended as the commencement of a series, but his Royal Highness was obliged to postpone the fes tive scene, owing to the unavoidable absence from London of the leading Personages invited. The Grand Ball will probably not take place this season, owing to the lamented demise of his Illustrious Bro ther. in-law. It is said that the Hon. Miss F—, whom that dis tinguished leader of the haul ton, Viscountess C—, undertook to introduce a lew weeks ago, has already made a conquest of the heart of a Noble Peer; the conquest is also said to be almost mutual, and so much so, that matrimonial arrangements are already going on . It is the custom at the Port of Liverpool, when a couple arc married, for the officiating Clergyman, after the ceremony is over, to salute the bride and bride-maid. On a tecent occasion, the Rev. Gentle man had no less than eight to give the holy kiss to— the bride and seven bride maids ! FASHIONABLE ARRIVALS. W. Z. L.
