SPAIN. !lalrid Papers* to the 29th of January have been :,:eived.—On the preceding day, an important de sate occurred in the Cortes, on the Report of the Spe• ('al Committee appointed to consider the affairs of America. It appears, that on the 19th of January, the Cortes, :, a Secret Sitting, appointed a Committee of nine to, t:ke into consideration certain propositions on the affairs of America, which had previously been deli berated on in a Council of State. The means pro ' osed by the Government ware : 1. To conclude an Armistice with the Trana.marine Provinces. S. To open a kind of Judicature fur adjusting grievances, con slating of Deputies from the Provinces and Commissioners from the Cortes. 3. To empower the Commissioners from the Cortes to sus pend, with respect to the Ultra-marine Provinces, such Arti cles of the Constitution as they may judge injurious to the said Provinces. 4. To suspend, with regard to America, the. Decrees relative to the suppression of monarchical establishments and privileges of the Clergy. 5. To establish freedom of commerce t.r.d the Ultra-marine Provinces. C. To concede to the said Provinces freedom of commerce Al foreign Powers, limiting the said intercourse to the period of years. 7. To settle the distribution of the common lands, not only rear the towns, but in the interior of the country, according to taw passed by the last Cortes. 8. To resort to the assistance of a foreign Power.—(One of our private letters states, that it has been proposed to transfer the tights of Spain over certain Provinces for an equivalent.) The Archbishop of Sew LL:s was chosen President of the Committee, who, in the sitting of the Coltes of the 24th, recommended— " Thu there should be sent to both Americas, Commissioners I:iftrtioted to hear and receive whatever propositions the said Go % erm enc. maymake and to transmit the same to the mother coun •,v. in order that the Cortes may decide thereon, without pro ' dac, however, to measures being taken by the Government receiving propositions from persons authorized by the said ecvernments, and referring them to the Cortes."

Chourschid ha-okng concentrated his troops in the middle :: November, and received considerable reinfnrce• mcuts, attacked the positions of Ali with vigour, and Ina& himself master of several eminences near the principal fortress. In order to reduce the place, it was necessary to innish the fort of Castro, and the other eminences, with heavy artillery: this not arriving in time, Ali Pacha was fortunate enough to recover the heights by surprise, in the middle of December.

The doori of the . d House or bir were not opened till twelve-o'clock, and in half an hour after; every bench, save the two front ones , were fi lled by Peeresses, and the female part of their families; an 4 other Ladies of distinction. They wcie, dressed in trains and feathers,. and , when they were fall,ar ranged, the appearance was brilliant in the extreme, The attendance of Peers in their robes was very no. merous: His Majr.syv entered the House at two o'clock precisely, preceded by . his Great Officers of State, and it afforded us the greatest plessure to 'ob. serve, that his MAJESTY looked in the most vigorous health: The Gentlemen of the House of Commons were then summoned by the Usher of the Black Rod. They entered with the SPEA sten at five minutes after., twd, when his Ala./Esti, hayin g taken his seat on the Throne, delivered the following most gracious Speech : " My Lor4 end Gentler:Reis, " I have the satisfaction of informing you, that I continue to receive from foreign Poirers, the strongest assurances of their friendly disposition towards this Country. " It is impossible for me not to feel deeply interested in any event that may haie a tendency to disturb the peace of Europe. My endeairours have; therefore, been directed, in conjunction with my Allies, to the settlement of the differences which- have unfortunately arisen between the Court of St. Petersburgh and the Ottoman Porte; and I have reason to entertain hopes that these differences will be satisfactorily adjusted. " In my late visit to Ireland, I derived the most sincere gratification from the loyalty and attachment manifested by all claiies of my Subjects. " With this impression, it must be matter of the deepest con cern to me, that a spirit of outrage, which has led to daring and systematic violations of the law has arisen, and still prevails in some parts of that ecuntry. " I am determined to use all the means In my power for the proteitlon of the persons and property of my loyal and peaceable subjects. And it pill be for your immediate consideration; whether the existing laws are iuMcient fur this purpose. " Notwithstanding this serious interruption of public tran quillity, I have the satisfaction of believing that my presence in Ireland has been productive of very beneficial effects, and i.ll deserttions of my People may confidently rely upon the just and equal administration or the laws, and upon my paternal solicitude for their welfare. " Gentlemen of the House of amnions, " It is very gratifying to me to be able to inform you, tbai during the lnst year the Revenue has exceeded that of :he preceding, and appear; to be in a course of progressive provement. 1 ' I have directed the Estimates of the eurreat year to be laid before you. They have been franed with every attention to economy which the circumstances of the country will permit ; and it will be satisfactory to you to lean, slut I have been able to mace a large redaction in our Annual Exixildizute, paricu. July in our Naval and Military Estabishnitnts. "My Lords and Gentlemen, " I have the greatest pleasure in acquainting you, that a con siderable improvement has taken place in the course of the kat year, in the Commerce and Nlanufactures of the United KiL:g. dom, and that I can row state them to be, in their important branches, in a very flourishing condition. • I must at the same time deeply regret the depressed state of the Agricultural Interest. " The condition of an Interest, so essentially connected with the prosperity of the country•, will of course am act your early attention ; and I have the fullest reliance on your wisdom iv the consideration of this important subject. " I am persuaded, that whatever measures you may adOpt, you will bear constantly in mind, that, in the maintenance of our public credit, all the best interests of this Kingdom are equally involved; and that i: is by a steady adherence to that principle that we have attained, and can alone expect to preserve, our high station amongst the nations of the world." His MAJESTY read the Speech in a firm and re markably distinct manner. It occupied nearly five minutes.
