The Vealinent hf Cu la has just transmitted to dollars. for clothing to be made there, to the ittito y of the rarional trade and industry. Had the (dicers cf this Regiment known the dispositions which prevail in both Spains concerning this subject, - they would have been very careful not to violate ar ticle 5 of tha Jecree of the Cones of the 50th of May, 18 1 21, v.sh'i provides, that all the clothe, and arti cles for the clothing and equipments of the army, are strictly to be of the national manufacture. T'ie anarchical movements of the Serrania de Ronda do not excite surprise as being unexpected, nor create alai in floor their consistency. It is doubt-, less mortifying to have to trace their origin to the apathy of the former Government, which ought not and could tot have been ignorant of what must hap pen, leaving Malaga to the mercy of odious Autho rities, and flialtop S'alez in conjunction with Bishop Canedo, after what was known relative to both these Prelates. In Alge itas there has always been a counter fire to these conspiracies. The consequence was what might naturally be ex p..ctral. When Senor Puenta arrived, all was over; and tooth his energetic and prudent measures con siderably ..intitiislied the intensity, they could not prevent the exrlosion of the plot, the leader of which . was favoured by one of the Political Chiefs of Alge siras, who had previously exerted himself against Lad' var and Guerra, and had discovered to the Go vettiment the crusade that _was in preparation pre vious to the month of Jnly, and even sent a pattern of the crosses which were of dered to be made in Gibraltar. The result has proved in unison with what we have e'en everywhere in attempts to replunge us into eavery in the name of Gun. The Bishops of Malaga and Ceuta, practising the scandalous and notorious infraction of human and Divine law, have employed themselves in misleading the minds of the inhabit atas of the Serrania, who are the victims of the grossest surerstition and the lowest ignorance, joined to a ferocity and boldness of character, of which the Priests know how to avail themselves for their own advantage. The most miserable inhabitants of the deserts of La Ronda have been excited by means of the Clergy, and misled with the idea that those are roartyrs ssho die for the temporal interests of fana ticism. The trine which had been laid by the agenti of the Priests exploded on the I st instant is La Ronda, where Aguilar, Tinoco, Becetra, and other Chiefs of the Contrabandistos, gave the signal for subversion and revolt. This signal was obeyed by the villages of Atajate and Atgatozin, and communicated to those who united themselves to Benaojan and Montejaque, beaded by Rosillo, as Gansin, the Political Chief of Algesiras had foreseen, and communicated to the former authorities of Malaga. The number of the factious is computed to be about SOO or 400—a number which, even with the advan tages they enjoy from their situation, cannot excite the alarm of the well-disposed, nor the hopes of the evil-inclined, particularly since the Authorities of Malaga, Algesitas, and Seville, direct against them forces so respectable as those which are described in the dispatches amd returns received from these Au thin ities. By them it will be seen that the vigilant and active General of Centa extends his continued wish for the liberties of the country, much beyond the sphere of the duty imposed on him by the import ant matter tinder his charge. A considerable portion of the column which is operating against the factious party of La Ronda consists of troops of the brave corps of America; Valencia, and the garrison ofCenta, and arc inferior in no espect to the others who com pose the liberating expedition destined to chastise the Contrabandistos. All that we have hitherto learned respecting tha t pat t of Andalusia, sufficiently proves the zeal of the present Authorities of Malaga, Seville, and Ceuta ; and the task which devolves on those who are in formed by the Political Chief of Algesiras, of the mischief perpetrated by the two rambling Bishops, and of that which was plotting at Gibraltar, will in duce them to make the Bishop of Ceuta to fulfil the laws which confine him to a determined point, or the Bishop of Malaga to reside in the capital of his dio cese, where there are no Serranos to he seduced, nor Contrabandistos to be armed against the Government, which has both sworn flocks and pastors. Little can be effected against ignorance, seduced by tithe gold: neither the vigilance of Salas and Retoitisto in Al gesiras, the zeal and activity of Puente in Malaga, of O'Daly in Seville, or Button in Ceuta, will be sufficient, if, after quenching the present ephemeral flame, there should sot vine in the breasts of Velez and Canedos, the permanent spark of new and greater conflagrations, in which Spanish blood will be shed to support the indolence and overbearing spirit of the Ministers of a religion of peace, charity, and the self-denial of all earthly things. This day an Ordinary Council was held to judge the First Lieutenant of G uards, Don Teodoro Goy ffien. An immense concourse assembled to witness the first trial of one of the Officers, who, unmindful of their duty, have made attempts on the liberties of their country, and placed it on the brink of ruin. The ad vocate of the culprit, guided by the noble sentiments which at all times distinguish him, drew tears from the audience in the course of his brilliant defence.— We are, however, informed, that the Council has con demned the prisoner to the usual punishment. The Journal des Debuts says :—The department of the Lower Rhine has been for the last four months afflicted with a scourge which has thrown the inha bitants into the utmost con4ernation, and reduced them to a situation truly deplorable. The sufferings of this district have arisen from the incredible ravages of mice ! The arrondisSements of Savern and Stras burgh have been most exposed to their depredations. These destructive animals have multiplied there to such a degree, that in the district of Savern 1,570,000 have been taken in a fortnight, and nearly as many have perished in their holes. The crops have been nearly destroyed in many Communes, and tke pota toes, the last resource of cultivators, are now attacked and threatened with destruction. What the mice have spared has been carried away by hail-storms. On the 23d, a dreadful storm burst over the town and environs of Slratburgh, especially over the districts of Nlarienheim and Dappigheim, where the crops were almost entirely destroyed, awl the loss estimated at 500,000 ir THE EVESING STAR.

Madrid Papers to the 15:h inst. have been received. It will be seen from the extracts we have given from them, in a preceding page, that the Spanish capital, which the Ultras had marked out for a scene of blood shed, remains tranquil. The new Ministers a: e firmly established, and appear to be conducting the business of the State with due vigour. General MORILLO has resigned a command which, being both civil and military,was considered as incompatible with libettY. —The Royal household is undergoing a strict re form ; and the conduct of the Ktuo, rendered suspi cious by the mutiny of the Guards, is put under strict controul. Genetal MINA is about to repair to Cata lonia with sufficient force to put down the insurrec tion in that province. The Espectador, appatently the organ of the Ministers, strongly urges that an extraordinary Embassy be sent to France, requiring the removal of the Cordon, and the withholding of every kind of protection from disaffected Spaniards. " This mission," says the Espectador, " ought not be intrusted to a worn-out Courtier, whose ideas induce him to yield to the enemies of his country, and who would make common cause with the Pavillon Mar san, but to a brave and undaunted General, who, if it should be necessary,would enter the Cabinet of Mont morency, booted and spurred, as the Ambassador for the recognition of the French Republic did when he visited the favourite Gobor." The article next points out the necessity of speedily concluding a treaty of alliance, offensive and defensive,with Portugal. On this point, it is observed, " that if despots form an alliance which, by an abuse of language, they call the Holy, it is fit that nations should form another,which they may with justice denominate the Most Holy." Advices were received this morning from Odessa to the 24th ult. The contents of the letters are con fined to mercantile transactions. The number of vessels was so limited at Odessa that freight had considerably advanced, and it was generally expected to continue fur some time. The French Papers of Monday have been received ; but their contents possess little importance. It ap pears that the English Actors in Paris are about to give six reps esentations by subscription at the Theatre Rue Chanteriene, commencing on the . 20th inst. with the Castle Spectre and Raising the Wind. The French journals are full of conjectures as to the cause of the death of the Marquis of LONDON DERRY, but they are not worth noticing. A rumour prevailed in Paris that the PorE had yielded to the infirmities of nature. The Moniteur contains an Ordonnance by which the KING, in testimony of his satisfaction for their ser •ices; has conferred the title of Count upon M. YEY. RONNET, Keeper of the Seals; M. CORRIERE, Minister for the Interior ; and M. Vtia.m.z, Finance Minister, and their heirs, in the male line. Several persons have been put on their trial at the Court of Assizes of Paris, charged with Carb3narism, and with conspiring against the Government and the order of succession to the Throne. The following particulars of the conclusion of the trials at Colmar, are in a private letter in the Condi tutionnel " After a deliberation of four hours and a half, the Jury left the Chamber of Council. As soon as their declaration had been read, the accused re-entered. The President pronounced the acquittal of nineteen of them, and directed that they should be immediately'set at liberty. They were preparing to quit the bench, but by a spontaneous movement they returned, and all proceeded to embrace Col. Pailhez, Dublar and Guimind, who awaited the judgment of the Court. This scene affected all who were present. The accused who were acquitted left the room, but they did not appear rejoiced at the liberty which h.“l been re stored to them ; many of them burst into tears, and all seemed overwhelmed with sorrow. " The accused, who received the sentence of the Court, heard with tranquillity the ma.riniuns of punishment which could be in flicted on them in consequence of the finding of the Jury. Guinand never lost the air of composure which he maintained during the whole proceedings; the countenance of Dublar was equally un moved ; the Colonel alone seemed somewhat depressal after hearing the declaration of the Jury ; he was heard to mention his wife and children, but as soon as the sentence of the Court was pronounced. he resumed his ordinary attitude. " The people surrounded the accused as they left the Court, and testified their satisfaction at the result of theroeeedlngs• The public pee has not been for a *omelet disturbed. " The Mayor of Colmar, dressed In uniform, stood before the Court while the sentence was pronounced, luelpg time Commis saries of the Police on each side, and three Serjeants of the Mu nicipality behind him."

This forenoon we received a German Mail, bring ing Frankfort and other Papers to the 15th instant. The following are extracts: FRANKFORT, AUGUST 14. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM ST. PETERSBURGII, • DATED JULY 20. 68 M. de Poletica, our Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the United States, having long since requested to be iwalled on account of his health, he is to be succeeded by Baron Thuyll, who formerly filled the same post at Lisbon. This cir cumstance will a little disconcert those Journals which eagerly gave extracts from the Correspondence between M. Poletica and Mr. Adams, on the Ukase of the 16th September, 18YI, by which his Majesty the Emperor has regulated the interest of the Russian American Company; for though the discussion was carried un In very temperate language on both sides, it was, notwithstanding, inferred from it that a rup ture bet Ween the two parties was inevitable. " Thus the men who calculate their future existence only in present disorders, and- who would carry the torch of war into all parts of the world to rise from the obscurity which, however, they will not escape, have once more taken their hopes for realities ; and the best proof of the good understanding that con tinues to subsist between Russia and the United States, is doubtless the nomination of a new Minister In the person of Baron de Thuyll de Seraskirchem" BElCHAilltif, JULY 21. The appointment or the new Hnspodar gives great satisfaction, both to the Boyars and the people in ge am!, As they hope to be thereby relieved from the tyranny of the Tm kish Coml:sanders. The Pacha here has received orders from Silistria to leave Wal lachia, with his troops, and the latter have, in fact, received orders to be ready to march : but now there is one circumstance in the way, and that is, that the Pacha must first give them their arrears of pay, amounting to 500,000 piastres. We have, therefore, good reason to fear, that so long as this sum is not to be collected from the country, he will not depart with his troops. From the moment that the Firman came, the Pacha ceased to meddle in the civil affairs of the country ; his functions are now restricted to the military. The troops, on the other hand, seem but little inclined to go away, because they think they shall have to fight the Insurgents in the Morel. It was usual for the Greek Princes,when they were nominated by the Porte, to bring with them 80 or 100 needy Greek families from Constantinople, to whom the chief offices in the State were given. This was the reason that the poor people groaned under the Greek Government. The native Boyars dared not make any opposition. They now see themselves at once delivered from these bloodsuckers, and have well founded hopes that all the money will not, in future, be carried out of the country by the Greeks. It is reported that the metropolitan Dionysius,who is still at Kronstadt, has received orders from the Prince immediately to return to Bucharest, to resume the functions of his important office. Whether he will return seems doubtful, because he is accused of having aided the Hetarists by a contribution of one hundred thousand piastres. MARSEILLES, JULY 30. Accounts from Constantinople say, that the Porte has taken energetic measures to assemble a powerful army in Macedonia, and orders to this end troops from Bulgaria. It is probable that the corps on the Danube will be ordered to Macedonia, as the Porte is now certain that this year at least there will be no war with Russia. It is said to have requested the Ministers of the mediating Powers, in a Note, to prevail on the Russian Cabinet, as it is so in- 1 clined to maintain peace, to withdraw► its armies' from the frontiers of the Turkish dominions.— In Constantinople itself, the party of Haleb Effendi has at present a decided superiority ; but also many powerful adversaries, who labour, especially in the ' , Seraglio, at its destruction.—This struggle between the great men of the Empire may lead to important consequences. The English Ambassador, Lord Strangford, is said to have closely connected himself with Haleb's party, and thereby to have regained very great influence.

I have the pleasure of sending yon several Num bers of the Ahgdo Colombian. All is quiet here at Caraccas. Puerto Cabello itill holds out, although the place is almost is ruins. Upwards of 140 fami lies have lately been sent out of the town, and the shot and shells from the Republican Army reached the centre of the City. The Republican squadron has sailed from here for the blockade of Puerto Ca bello; arnd as the Spanish frigate is gone to the Ha vannah, it is expected they will be able to prevent any vessel getting into the harbour. _ BUFFALO, JULY AC We have published the offtcial decision of the Ame rican and Btitish Commissioners, made under the sixth article of the Treaty of Ghent, by which it will .be seen, that all the islands in the Niagara river (ex cept Mary Island), have fallen to the United Sates. Drummond's Island, in lake liatron, containing a Bri tish post, has also fallen to us. This will serve as an exchange for the military works at ItJsc's Point, on Lake Champlain. T's KING'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND, PRI VATIC LETTEItS—Fteen the Morning Papa. ADINBURGH, Ammo: 1111--.Frve °tux& - - - It seems that the conduct at the Levee hits rathe r disappointed some of the more remote official pl ea in the Provinees. They never dbubted that dilet Addresses which they had prepared by the combined labour of many weeks and heads, and which are e i strain, substance, and value, similar to those with which they have so often propped the Throne, woule be gravely and Jowly read in the presence of Ma jesty, and that deb pe r mica earl/ have the honour of delivering its Well conned speeds, end listening to a nirost gricidtik reply: The beeeity of a Levee, in which each passed btUrb the KiNo with the dimness and dispatch of the Obits in &wpm': glass, left them, however, no tithe ib pot by th e display of their eloquence. A fest fiand'ed their Ad. dresses themselves and hurried away, and di* Veit put them into the hands of their favourite Peers. Monday, according to announcement, ti Court we.! held at Hteyrood, at which a limited number of Ad, dresses were presented on the Throne and in the Closet. The curiosity of the People seems to have ie a great measure subsided, Twiny of the provincials having left the town, and the citizens having found that they could not live upon the mete appearance of the KING. Of those who gill frequented the avenues leading to the Palace, the greater part wire such country folks as had not been able to come r the beginning. 'llieNlitect arrived about two in plain carriage. He was dressed in a Field Marshal's uniform, and attended by the Duke of Dosser and Lord GRAYES., He immediately proceeded to his -apartments, and soon after his arrival it was an nounced that the Addresses would be received. The first Ad iress was from the Moderator and Ministers of the Kirk of Scotland; it was presented by the Rev, Doctor LAstmoer, accompanied by nearly 130 Cler gyrnen and Elders. The Universities of St. Andrew':, Glasgow, the King's, :and Mareschal College ; Abe r . dean, followed, presented by their several Rectors and Principals; and the different Courts of Justice. Seve ral other Addresses were, we believe, also presented on the Throne. And the Address of the Episcopal Clergy of Scotland, that of the Highland Society, and several others, in the Royal Closet. Several Noblemen also presented Addresses fi orn Countie, end Burghs; and Sir Jon,' SINCLAIR, of lllbster, Lid before the KING a copy of his statistic labours. All the Addresses were graciously receive 4 and suitably replied to. It is impossible to count the tales which rumour has set afloat upon the occasion, and they are, of course, unworthy of credit. One of them here is, that there is a serious misunderstanding between the Scottish and the English Household ; the former of whom claim their offices without having as yet been allowed the honour; Scotland is indignant at this—that is to say, some of the official persons are indignant, and have resolved to pray the Kano in Council to be re instated. There is this marked difference between Scotland and Ireland, that Scotland has a regular KING'S Household belonging to herself; and as the different members of it have the name and enwhi ments (where there are any), it is but natural that they should wish to do the duty. Sunday, the KING continued at Dalkeith, without attending Divine Service. This, we hear, has given mortal offence, not only to those Reverend and elo quent persons who were prepared to preach before him, but to the whole Kirk generally. It is hoped he will grace the High Kirk en Sunday next. It is not true that Mr. PEEL and Lord MELVILLE set off for London. They only set off for Melville Castle; but they dispatched a Messenger.. Lord CONYNGHAI/ set off for Ireland this morning at three. The reason of his departure is not known; The Drawing Room is to be on Tuesday, at one—=. all the beauty of Scotland is expected: ANOTHER LEAVER, SAME DATE. His MAJESTY is quite delighted with his residence at Dalkeith and the scenery around it, which is beau tifully picturesque. It embraces a considerable ex tent of soft woodland landscape, and in the di,tance are seen bare and rugged precipices, towering to a stupendous height, and deriving a sublime and dis tinctive effect from the contrast. Dalkeith Palace is a structure en a large scale, and the different apar.• menus are both commodious and elegant. Thoe ap• propriated to the Krur's use are superbly fitted up. At the extremity of the avenue which leads from the private road, a small encampment has been formed for the accommodation of the military stationed there on guard ; and here I must observe that conduct of many of the soldiers has not, only heel rude and insulting, but absolutely ferocious, ever since his MAJESTY s arrival. It is said his MAJESTY has never appeared in ary dress he likes so well as the tartan. Standing befo:e the Marquis of CONYNUHANI and one or two more el his suite, he observed, when dressed in it for the Le vee—" Well, Conyngham, what do you think of my dress? for my own part, J like it better than any ever wore; but this is not my best suit of tartan, for 1 don't mean to wear that till the day of the Drawing-room, in compliment to the Ladies. w --z His MAJESTY has two dresses of this material, me' of which is superb to a degree. The plaid which hangs over the shoulder is confined in front by some thing like the Roman fibula, or button, very larr and composed entirely of precious . stones found Un Scotland. An ingenious lapidary here, whose wor L . - manship it is, has also devised two other ornament. which are equally rich and beautiftil. These are ilia,- wise of Scottish precious stones, and they are Lii.po-c4 in such a manner as to resemble exactly the knot ea a Highlander's garter. They are to he wo,u a below the knee. It is understood, not without foundation, that 3. certain beautiful widow of rank, whose charms have precisely att aine d t h at d egree of mew ity which sum the taste of an Ill ustr i ous Personage, has gained a complete triumph o ver hi s h eart. Lady E--, tho widow in question, has been hea r d to expiess I:cr great admi ra ti on o f t h e litxo's pt•thbeg, apt! hss, Ladyship says she never saw any one look halt well in the kilt as his MAJESTY. On the day the Royal yacht entered the harbour, a party of the Paisley weavers went out in a bruit to greet his Maattsrv, and having, by their loud cheer , . succeeded in bringing him cm deck, one of the nom ber btoo.l forwatd in Ole boat, :ual drank his MA.ir S -inulth in then 11.1LIVe whiskey. Upon this 4 bll4ll
