:—•— 57,ure it makes by the side of on e yea r ' s expenditure of the mighty Britain ! The Paris Papers, from Saturday to Tuesday in clusive, arrived this forenoon. The first point to which our attention has been, of course anxiously, directed, is the extent of the information they con tain respecting the state of affairs in Spain; and s ubjoined, we lay before our Readers extracts from the different Journals, of all that is new or interest ing on the subject. The accounts in these Papers came down only to the night of the 13th instant, the general facts established beyond a doubt are, that the insurrection, which had subsisted since the 1- 4 of January, continued still unsubdued ; that the Insurgents were in undisputed possession of the Isle of Leon; that the City of Cadiz was surrounded by them, and an communication between it and the interrupted; that their numbers, as may natu rally be supposed, from the time the revolt had lasted, without any attempt to check it, were on the i:-.cinse; and that the restoration of the Constitution established by the Cortes was the single and undis ,-1,:•,c,i object of the rebellion. - " Extract from a Letter from Madrid, dated Jan. 13:— The movement which has manifested itself among a part of the Troops of the American Expe dition, does not inspire any inquietude for the tran- Tail7tty of Spain. Thanks to the zeal and to the fi:mness of the Authorities of Cadiz and of Seville, the garrisons and the inhabitants of these two towns II:INT net taken any part in the revolt, and have, on ;L.?. contrary, nobly evinced their attachment and their fidelity to the King. The spirit of the country at large it equally. satisfying. The Rebels have vainly endeavoured to possess themselves of Cadiz, and they have been obliged to Allan:inn this enterprizc. They still occupy the Isle Lcc•n, but there have been already many deserters ►torn their bc,iy, and the spirit of dissension appears e.ign among them. The Brigadier Quiroga, whom they had recently named Commander in Chief, has been dcpnsed and cast into prison. t St. Margie is in the possession of the Royal. trcops. Gcncral Fie re has put itimself at the head of the army. lie has quitted Seville with a corps of Cavalry, and moved upon Xeres, where about three squadrons have joined him."-211o1iteur. We are still in the same incertitude as to the state of matters in Spain. Scme Journals have an nounced to-day, that General Calderon, who was arrested by the insurgent regiments, has been mas ,:crcd. The Indercndcnt says, he has been shot ; The Ariitarque, that he has been killed by a sabre stroke from the Officer appointed to arrest him. It appears certain, that the rebels are commanded by the Brigadier of Artillery, Moscollo, and that they have been repulsed from Trocadero."--Journal des Dclats 9f Sunday. " The last accounts received from Madrid are of the 13th, and have arrived by the ordinary Cciurier, whose correspondence was not stopped at Irun as has been asserted. It is false that the rebels have seized upon Cadiz; it is false that they have marched upon Madrid. The city of Cadiz, inhabited chiefly by intelligent Merchants,,who have much to lose, on the supposition that it was desirous*:of a Consti tutional Government, is far from applauding the means by which some persons would wish to esta blish it. It knows, and too much experience has un happily proved, that the path of revolt leads only to anarchy. Well persuaded of these truths, ithas embraced with enthusiasm the cause of its King, and its Militia, united to the crews of the squadron, have protected it from the rebels. The latter have stationed themselves partly in the Isle of Leon and partly at Ilornos. General Freyre, one of the most distinguished Officers of the Army, by whom he is generally esteemed, has keen invested with unlimited powers to suppress the sedition. Such is the last news which we have heard as to this event."—Jour nal des Detats of Monday. • " There are no accounts from Spain of a fresher date than those which we gave yesterday. On com paring different private letters which have arrived from Bayonne, by the last Courier, we do not see any reason to believe the Insurrection more impor tant than we have represented. The following are the only details upon which there is no doubt. " Four battalions, and not four regiments, of the ExpeJitionary Army, viz.—those of Asturias, of Arragon, of Seville, and of Guides du General, re voked, and moved on Pueblo de Cabezas de Sat: J:An. There they repaired to the Church, and during the Grand Mass, swore to defend the Consti tution. After having deposed the Authorities, they i appointed in their places those who were in office at I the time of the Cortes. They theta took the route' s of Cebrixa, where they were joined by two mo re battalions, viz. those of Spain and of the Crown ;. thence the whole moved in a body upon Cadiz, ‘...ith the intention of seizing that place; but the citi• 'et., had time to shot the gates, and the attempt com pletely failed. They named for their chief, General re, who twice refused to take on himself the corn :nand, in spite of the reiterated instances of two ,leptitatio-Ls who were sent to him ; they then ap pointed, in his place, Colonel Villacinero. " fortified point, no military position, is in the power of the Insurgents. The town of San Fer !,:uida, in the Isle of Leon, is an open place. Some apprehensions are entertained respecting the Naval Averals and Magazin2s, which are at different points open to the Bay of Cadiz. No report, worthy of that, notwithstanding his absence, he will still retain credit, speaks of movements in any of the other pro- the Seals. • vinces."—Joureal des Debats of Tuesday. Five faer Cents. Monday, 72 fr. 50 co " The Journal of Toulouse gives, respecting Spain, the following details.

Th e f o ll ow i ng are English." facts, on which we have no fear of being contradicted : " The insurrection broke out effectively on the Ist of January, among the troops cantoned at the foot of the Nerran ade Ronda. All that has been said as to the seizure of Count Calderon, General in Chief, and his Staff, is established ; to which must be added the arrest of the Minister of Marine, M. de Cisneros, who was at the Isle-of Leen, occupied with hastening the preparations for the Expedition. But it is false that the Insurgents have fallen back towards ihe mountains of Ronda, as has been believed; they occupy the Isle of Leon, several posts, and all the establishments on both sides of the Bay. Have they still to seize on Cadiz, or are they masters of it ?- IThe thing is doubtful ; what is positive is, that 120 letter has been received from it at Madrid, and that' the Government, down to the night of the 13th, not been able to tranquilize the public - mind as to the fate of that important City. it is, however, cer tain that the Insurgents proclaimed the Constitution of the Cortes, and that their numbers have consider ably augmented. Many General Officers who re sided in Andalusia, have removed from the theatre of insurrection, afraid that they might lie forced to take a part in it, and have gone towards Madrid, to inquire or wait the orders of Government. Count Calderon, the Minister Cisneros, and other func tionaries, are confined in the Port of Saneti under a guard of the rebels, which proves that they. surround Cadiz instead of retiring from it. The dis content goes en increasing, and the spirit of revolt spreads in the interior. Fears are entertained fir Valencia, where Elio is abhorred ; for Grenada, where Eguia can no longer find enough of prisons, so many are the victims he has to immure; for Gallicia, where the remembrance of Porlier is not yet extinct. The rebellion has already lasted fifteen days, a thing um known before. " Madrid is visibly agitated. Sentinels have been insulted ; according to some Letters, assassinated. Letters from that Capital, which we have seen, are filled with the gloomiest forebodings; the Duke of Saint Ferdinand never stirs horn his office, and there is no end of dispatching Couriers to the interior and abroad. All the post-horses are retained for the ser vice of Government. The Ehglith Ambassador had great difficulty in sending - off bis dis Patches. The Royal Family is at the Eglais, and seldom show themselves abroad. " The most exaggerated tumours are in circu lation at Madrid. Nothing - is more unfounded than the march of the rebels_ on the Capital, the resurrec tion of Melchien, and other stories of a similar kind; the reality is bad enough, without all these idle tales, originating in malevolence, or a desire of no velty.'—The Constitutionuel of Tuesday. " A Commercial Letter, from Bayonne, has been communicated to us this evening, which comes from a source that appears to us worthy of confidence. It gives the following details : " The number of Insurgents augMents considerably. The last accounts state that they are masters of San Lucar, Rota, Port Sainte Marie, the Isle of Leon, Borneo, and of all the surrounding country. " The city of Cadiz has not made any demonstra tion against the insurrection ; it is even supposed that it has only delayed opening its gates till it should have time to arganize its Authorities. a General Frey re had assembled 8000 men at Seville, with whom he has put himself in advance, but it is not believed that he will do anything great. The fine Regiment of the Canaries, and almost all his Artillery, have gone over to the Insurgents ; the desertion in the rest of the troops is also ►ery considerable. THE LATE DUKE OF KENT. SIDMOUTH, JAN. 25.--This morning, about eleven o'clock, we witnessed the melancholy sight of the departure of the Duchess of KEST. Her Royal Highness travelled with her Brother, the Prince LEOPOLD, in his post-chaise. The Princesses, and all the immediate attendants of her Royal Highness, accompanied her, in several carriages. It is quite impossible to give an idea of the deep sensation the death of the Duke has occasioned, and the interest attached to the Duchess is •ery great, from the unremitting attention her Royal Highness paid, for• thirteen days and nights, to her Royal Consort. " The Insurgents have opened an active corres pondence with different points ; their conduct is mo derate ; they have required nothing but provisions in the places which they occupy. " The agitation at Madrid is extreme."—Liem. " According to details which have come to us from a good source, there can be no doubt that the Insurgents are at the Isle of Leon and at Borneo; every thing is still uncertain relative to Cadiz."— Gaiette de France of Tuesda y . We have not yet heard the arrangements for re moving the remains of his late Royal Highness, but the PRINCE Rtover's orders are hourly expected. The household of their Royal Highnesses are now separating, to return to London. A part only re nriins here with Gen. WETHERALL, who has charge of the remains of his late master, which he is to attend to Windsor. The Royal Party sleep to-night at Ilminster, for whence Captain CONROY (who attends the Duchess) has just set off, to make the necessary arrangements —Wednesday night will be passed at the Palace of the Lord Bishop of SALISBURY—and it is hoped that, on Thursday ) the Palace at Kensington will be safely reached. Yesterday, the PRINCE RECENT received visits from the Dukes of YORK and CLARENCE. The inquirers of condolence on the death of the Duke of KENT ' continue very numerous at Carlton House, York House, Clarence House, and Marlborough House. DEATHS.—On the 13th instant, the Electress of HESSE, after a short illness ; and, on the 15th, the Grand Duchess of BADEN, aged seventy-three. The death of Rear-Admiral CAMPERIL, which was doubted when the first report of it reached this coun try, is, we regst to say, confirmed by the last letters from Barbadroes: from one of which, dat e d t h e 18th of November = -. the, following is an extract His Majesty's ship SALISBURY arrived hete on the 14th instant, haying on board the body of the late Rear- Admiral D. CAsszazu., who died at sea en the 11th instant. The remains of, the late Admiral were brought en shore, and deposited at King's-house, on the evening of the 16th ; and yesterday evening the funeral procession took place: after which the body was again taken en board the Seusauite, and this ship is to sail to-morrow morning for La Guyra, where the FLY is stationed, and to remove the body on board the sloop for England. It is expected that Lieut.-Gen. Lord COMBERMERE, Commander of the Forces in the West Indies, will shortly relinquish his command, and return to England.' Last night, about half-past eight o'clock, a melan choly instance of sudden death occurred. A young man named LUDLOW, clerk to Messrs. SLAUGHTER and Co. in St. Martin's-lane, being apparently in per lest health, while engaged at writing in the .count ing-house., suddenly fell ba c k an d i mme di ate l y ex pired. Professional attendance was very speedily procured, but the vital spark was quite extinct. Wednesday, as a man named Guager, porter to Mr. Perrin, coal-merchant, of Turnharn-Green, was returning home with a load of coals, he accidentally slipped down, and the wheels passing ov* him, broke both his thighs. Immediate amputation was found o necessary ;_ but the poor fellow died shortly, after in the greatest misery, leaving behind him five small orphan children. During the late severe frost, a- shepherd, named Davis, residing at Acton, on going one morning early into his field, discovered, to his no small sur• prise, that a number of his flock were literally fro zen to the ground, unable to raise themselves ; a like circumstance (although he has been in the habit of, attending sheep for nearly 60 years) he never before' witnessed. SHOCKING Occummxce.—Ntre copy the following statement from the Limerick Advertiser. A fune ral, passing from the shore to a small island in the Great Lough above Killaloe, the friends and rela tives of the deceased thought the ice sufficiently strong to carry the corpse across, when it anfortu natelt broke, and, shocking to relate, the remains of the deceased were precipitated into the water, and a number of people; who were conveying the corpse, fell in and perished. The numbers that suffered are differently stated ; but, as a circumstance of this kind is generally over-coloured by the feelings it excites, wo shall forbear mentioning the number, until we are better informed as to the extent of the calamity. GLINFEROUS.—This interesting Novel-bids fair to become it great favourite of the Boudoir and the Circulating Library. Without treading in the foot steps of his predecessors, he has contrived tri enrich his Tale by a great mass of information on the Manz ners and People of Scotland. The style is easy, flowing, and rich; the dialogue piquant ; and occa sionally we meet with many apt illustrations of the old Scottish Law. On the whole we are persuaded that our Readers will agree with us, after tria4 that their leisure was not misapplied in reading GleVergus. A novel exhibition was witnessed last night at the Society of Arts, by the Mechanical Committee of that useful Institution; with an ingenious Model of a Blowing Machine for the use of Anchorsraths and Ironfounders, whereby both iron and brass were li terally cast in the Society's Room. The French news contained in these Papers is not without its importance, but our limits preclude us from entering into the details to-day. The Chamber of Deputies had a meeting on Saturday, when the Minister of Finances presented the Budget of Ex penses for the year 1820. It exceeds that of last year by 3,900,000 fr. N. DECAZE is quite recovered fro% his indisposition ; he has been visiting the KING, and bidding farewell to M.DE SERRE, who has gone, for the benefit of his health, to Nice. `lt is affirmed THE ARM Ir 4 THE' EDI I I 4 OII.

Prom the deepness of the snow, and the severity of the weather, the London Mail due on Sunday morning did nut arrive till yesterday morning at nine o'clock, being '2B hours later than usual. The Mail due yesterday morning, arrived at three o'clock after noon. This morning it came at a quarter past nine. The Edinburgh Mail also suffered considerable in terruption. The road was so barricadeed by wreaths of snow, that the guard was obliged to leave the coach ani passengers, and post on with the bags alone. . A house at Dustochar, belonging to John Stewart, a Preses, Secretary, or Treasurer, to one of the So cieties on Orator Brayshiw's plan, was searched last week, and in a box secreted and nailed op in his kitchen were found two pike-heads, and four muskets. Stewart accounted in some sort of way for the muskets, but denied all knowledge of the pike-heads. At the same time were found PruNes . l?ights of Man,WooLEn's Black Dwarf, Spirit ?pile Union, and several other similar publications. Stewart is charged with seditious practices. The Adelphi Theatre brought forward last night Ivanhoe ; or the Saxon Chity: It was well received and deservedly so. This meld-dramatic piece is got up in a high style of magnificence, and does high credit to the taste of the Proprietors of the Theatre. The Surrey Theatre was last night honoured by the patronage of many families of high civic rank, to witness the performance. of Ivanhoe and Spoiled Children, for the Benefit of the Houseless Poor. The whole of the entertainments went off with the greitest eclat. The LOAD MAYOR'S box" was richly decorated with the City Arms, and the party occupying it seemed highly delighted.
