With this simple request of an ezplan ition was General Alava sent back .to the French Mead-quar ters, when the Prince Generalissimo answered, by•letter entrusted to the Duke de Geichei in which he declared that he would not consider King Ferdinand V/I..as free, until he saw him in the midst of the French Army— " Au milieu de tares& Frascaise I" addiagoicthat then his Royal Highness emrageroit Sa lififitdoaser, ou au sodas a prometre er sox people, far Astitatioxs gue dais sa sagesse e ll elsigenoii4dste evnvessalik Il el • • that is, that he then would induce his Majesty to or at least to promise, to his people time: institutions which in his wisdom he should deem most suitable. This insulting answer, in which the French tore off the mask, produced another letter from the King, also confided to General Alava, in which he simply- pro posed that an interview between him and the Duke should take place in whichever of the two followirg modes might be preferred : FOUR-INSIDE COACHES, AND KEEP GOOD TIME BY S.

We learn, through a direct channel from Cadiz (the particulars have also been confirmed to us from Gibral tar), that the negotiations were renewed between the contending parties, in consequence of the taking of the Trocadero, which was made a fresh pretext for them. It appears certain that the King of Spain himself re newed the correspondence which had been abruptly broken off, by writing another letter to the Duke d'An gouleme, the date of which, if we mistake not, was the sth of September. In this letter, which was confided to General Alava, the King urged and solicited that an armistice might be agreed upon, adding, " that during the suspension of hostilities, he trusted it would be pos sible to agfee on such terms as would lead to the nego elation and conclusion of a peace mutually decorous." General Alava carried with him ptivate instructions and powers, in case an opportunity presented itself, to' ' agree as to the form and bases of the . armistice thus proposed, yet unprovided with any : authority to pro mise a variation in the Constitution, the occupation of La Isla, or indeed of any other point that altered the position of the French from the uti possidefis at the mo utent the armistice was agreed upon. This autograph, letter of the King announced that General Alava was the bearer, and if sticceesrul, besides the ordinary de tails, he was empowered to regulate the duration of the armistice, as well as the terms and conditions on which it was to be made general throughout Spain. General. Alava was politely received ; but when the object of his mission had been considered by the Duke d'Angouleme, the proposed negociation was rejected, and he was sent back with a communication shot t and haughty, in whictr the King and the Constitutional Go vernment were told that " the sine qua non bases of any armistice and negociation which could be accepted were, first, the liberation of the King:; and, secondly, the occu pation of the Gaditanian Island by , the French troops." General Alava arrived at Cadii with this perplexing note, and in one equally laconic, dated the Bth, the King returned an answer, in which he stated, " that it was necessary to um*etnnd vhat the Deice d'Angout 'kale meant by the libeiatiikilgr Pe" °ll,, F l4 ing upon him tPtCi&alli to fleclate hoW,.wheri fl afl tvileretel 'Mtn lieionildtriatt i lselht _stag of fro** .accorditig San Marcial Princess Guadalaxara Seville - Militia of Madrid BMA RS' GREASE.

Finding matters in this state, General Alava returned the same day, the 9th, announcing that the negotiations were again broken off. In the means bile, a Note had been addressed to Sir Wm. A'Court, soliciting him to offer the same terms, in the !lime of his Government, to the French Generalissimo, and requesting him at the same time to send a vessel of war to the Bay of Cadiz, in order to facilitate the interview above alluded to.— Sir Wm. A'Court, we understand, readily acceded to the proposal, and wrote to the Duc d'Angnuleme, bat without obtaining a satisfactory answer, the French still persisting on unconditional submission ; for the terms proposed by them. as they appear in the above narra tive, can be taken in no other lig!t. Things were in this state at Cadiz in the'middle of September. just before the taking of Sand- Petri on the 16th, and the bombardment by the. French naval force . on the 233. In the meantime the situation of the Cortes and the Government was truly critical and de plorable. The forced loan, unwillingly levied, and re luctantly paid, had already been expended—and the mea sure itielf, a recurrence to which could not be avoided, had rendered the principal inhabitants inimical to a protracted defence, as they apprehended a repetition, were daily more convinced of the dreadful exigency of the Government, and beheld with alarm the increasing and formidable preparations of the enemy. The troops were suffering under the greatest privations, and con stantly instigated by the corrupt agents of the French, or.the grovelling fanatics within the town. Fresh pro visions also began to be scarce and exorbitantly dear, and consequently only within the reach of a few. These privations, added to the desponding accounts reining in from all the provinces, except Catalonia, and the dread of another bombardment, terrified the rabble, disheartened the wealthy, and deprived the GoVern ment of the moral influence necessary to prolong the resistance. The Cadiz Militia was besides in a very:in different state of discipline, and badly affected ; one or two battalions of the line were also watering, so much so, that one of them, the San Marcial, refused to march. when it was resolved to attempt the retaking of Sand Petri. The loss of men in the Trocadero, the drafts sent with Generals Riego and Zayas, as well as several desertions, had moreover reduced the efficient troops to a very small number, of which the following may be considered a pretty correct return: Battalion of the General 600 . - 1,000 ' 500 . 590 600 4,000 700 . 500 , 111.•••111=1. . i t soo 500 i Total effective - Militia of Cadiz, only available for town duty - ._._ Y 409 • The total effective garrison of Cadiz, on which re liance at least could be placed, in case of attack, there fore scarcely exceeded 6,000 men, who had ro cover lines equal to twenty-tour miles in extent, with many accessible points, particularly by sea, to defend which only forty gun-boats were left. In fact, of the troops above enumerated, the Madrid and Seville militia were perhaps the only ,corps in whisk implicit confidence could be placed. The former, in a more particular ztainer, had uniformly distinguished themselves, both in the capital on the memorable 7th of July, and in the sorties, as well as in se v eral actions which had taken place with the trench in front of La Isla By their di.- cipline and steadiness they had proved themselves equal to the best troops of the line, and chosen from among the best families in their native cities, bytheir civic vir tues they had shown themselves deserving.of the name of free citizens, and worthy of being called the.core panions of Alma's soldiers. h was the firmness and devotion of the Madrid and Seville militia which pre vented the surrender of 'Cadiz, from the moment the place wet-regularly invested by the enemy, and what cam may. now- be their, face, or the • condiact of other 'tagps,: which they would -no longeloconsider at being °worthy of the name of countrymen, they art deierving bt the esteem and gratitude of keen ea of every Clime. $ .
