.. INQUISITION. We have received a atkrte de Madrid of the 16th inst.whieksontains semi Addresses to the Regency. Amongst rifest, &NY Vittoria is remarkable tor de manding the re-establishment of the Inquisition. The illustrious Ayuntamiento of the city of Vit toria, which enjoyed the distinguished honour of per sonally congratulating the Provisional Junta of Spain and the Indies upon its triumphant passage through their town, cordially rejefices in repeating its most respectful congratulations to your Serene Highness upon its installation, and the superior degree of con fidence which it justly deserves, hoping that DIVINE PROVIDENCE will enlighten and direct it in managing the helm of the State in this frightful tempest, during the captivity of our idolized King. The effective endrgies of your Serene Highness, will doubtless over come, in such intricate circumstances, every difficulty, and will fulfil the religious hopes of all good Spaniards, by restoring to his Throne our beloved Sovereign and his Royal Femily, now oppressed by impious, bloody, and regicidal hands. If to such a probable and grateful consummation should be added that of the re-establishment of the Holy Office of the Inqui sition, the bulwark of the faith, the sentinel of reli gion, and the terror of heretics, which is ardently de sired by all good Spaniards, friends to the altar and ' the Throne, i n proportion as modern philosophers and ianotittois detest and misrepresent it, all their religi ous wishes would be gratified in their fullest extent. Thus they would see things restored to the situation in which they were before the unfortunate 7th March, 1820, which is the object anxiously desired by all those who are friends to order, and who respect the Holy Office, for the re-establishment of which this loyal corporation, confiding in your justice, supplicate your Serene Highness."

The following Teleg:aphic Dispatch, received at Paris, and inserted in time official part of the Moniteur of Tuesday, announces the long expected event of the demise of the Sovereign Pontiff Pius. VII. TILE PREFECT OF THE RUONE TO HU EXCELLENCY THE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL OF MINISTERS. " LYONS, AUGUST 25. et The Pope died on the 20th, at six o'clock, in the Thor ning. " I have sent off this night to his Excellency the Mi nister for Foreign Affairs, a courier with a Dispatch from the French Ambassador at the Court of Turin." Nis Holiness was born 14th of August, 1742; his proper name GREGORY BARNAEAS CHIAREMONTI.—•• He was created Cardinal, 24th of February, 1785, and elected Pope 14th of March, 1800. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. We have received to-day, by Express, the Moni !eur and other Paris Papers of . Tuesday. The intel ligence which they contain from the seat of war is of considerable importance. The fact of a Convention having been entered into for the subn.i,sion of Co runna, which we announced exclusively in the STA II of Saturday last, is fully confirmed in all its details. The garrison are to place themselves under the or ders of General 'Moatt.Lo, whose arrival was not ex pected sourer than the 25th or 26th instant. In the mean time an entire suspension of hostilities had taken place before the town. Among the ogler official accounts which we subjoin, there is one from Mar shal Mown, of the 19th of August, which, if cor rectly given, contains what cannot certainly be true. After mentioning that " his object is to force the enemy back into the camp of Tarragona, to hasten his submission, or force him to shut himself up in Tarragona," he adds immediately after,' " I h ave summoned the Governor"—alluding, as the Reader is left to infer, to the Governor of Tarragona—" and the garrison have-deputed an Officer to treat of sub mission." Now, it is clear that nothing of the kind can have taken place. The Marshal's latest dispatch leaves him at Manresa, nearly 50 miles from Tarragona; the Spaniards had still their open camp in front of that city ; and so far from being in a condition to summon the place, the Marshal tells us, in the same breath, that " his object" does not extend beyond forcing the enemy back into their camp, or, at the worst, shutting themselves up inthe fortress. We suspect there has been some error in transcribing the Marshal's dir patch. The only place to which the passage's likely to refer, is the Seu d'Urgel, which, after the defeat Of ?AMAMI' attempt to raise the blockade of it, must have been in a 'situation to render its capitulation extremely probable. ARMY OF THE PYRENNEES. REPORT FROM MARSHAL THE DUKE OF REGGIO TO THE MINISTER OF WAR. " MADRID, AUGUST 20. $ 1 Lieutenant-General Count Bourcke renders me an account, dated the 35th instant, of his operations on Corunna, by a letter to the following purport: In the nights of the 10th and 11th the garrison of Corunna fired briskly on our troops, but fortunately did not do us much harm. Several of the houses were damaged about our head-quarters ; the maga zine of tobacco caught ire, but was soon extin guished. About eight o'ileck in the morning a white flag was seen hoisted on the covered way, and a flag of truce came to us breathing peace, but at the same time exhibiting high pretensions. They require that I should. declare that they have done their duty, and obeyed Ferdinand the Seventh. They wish, how ever, to place theniselves under the protection of the Duke of Angouleme; but they would not hear a word about the Regency of Madrid. They wish to await in this attitude the issue of the affairs of Cadiz, and the orders of the King of Spain. H The whole of yesterday was occupied in negocia- , tion. I sent them my ultimatum, bearing that I would enter Corunna either as friend or enemy." Six OTI.OOIC AT NIGHT. " A person invested with power has this moment arrived, after having had a conference in the town, and have agreed that the garrison of Corunna shall put themselves under the orders of General Morillo. Two Officers of the garrison have been sent to that General, to inform him of what has been agreed upon. Until their return there will be a suspension of hos tilities, which may last four or five days, owing to the distance of Count Carthagena. gg The Captain-General of Oid Castile, Charles O'Donnel, also sends accounts from Salamanca, of the 16th of this month, that two Squadrons of the Regi ment of the Queen arrived on the 13th in the en virons of Zamora, joined.his troops, and recognised the Regency. This reinforcement of Cavalry will be of great service in Estramadura. (Signed) "Marshal Duke of AMC TO. gi P. S. I reckon by this time that the surrender of Coruana is settled. I have given orders to General Bourcke that the moment he takes possession of Co runna he shall leave a regiment there, proceed with' his main force to Astoiga, and send the brigade of Larochejacquelin to Estrarnadura, where the Consti tutiOnalists have shewn themselves in some force." REPORT OF MARSHAL THE DUKE OW CORNEGLIANO TO THE AIINISTER OF WAR. U VICII, AUGUST 17. MoNstEurt—The ei ` nsy, beaten at the bridge of Cabriana, and at. Calder, ; effected his retreat by Es- tang Oria, Pratt de Lusanes, and Gironella. Yester day morning his rear guard still occupied this last point. Baron d'Etolcs and General Tromelin, who fol. I lowed in the same direction, received orders to hem in the enemy. Yrsterday they were to move from Pratt de Lusanes to Gironella. Vich being covered by this portion of the allied troops, Colonel de Salperwick left that place on the 15th instant, with ten companies of the Bth line. The same day they joined the troops of Baron d'Eroles. " General Tromelin and Baron d'Eroles think, that by taking the direction of Gironella, the enemy de signed to reach Salsona as quickly as possible, and to retire into the plain of Urgel, or towards the posi tions which be occupied anterior to his irruption into Upper Catalonia. This opinion is confirmed by in formation received from a Lieutenant-Colonel who was wounded at Caldes on the 14th, and had not been able to be carried fat tiler than Pratz de Lusanes. This Officer affirms that the project of Milans was to raise the blockade of Seu d'Urgel, withdraw the gar rison, march to Figueras, and, by taking the garrison of that place also under his orders, thus to collect a force of from 10,000 to 12,000 men, With •which he might raise the siege of Barcelona. He adds, that this project had been defeated by the rapidity of our movements, and that after the battle of Caldes the enemy only thought of escaping the dangers of his position. " I was myself on the way from Garriga to Vich, when these accounts reached me. I immediately gave orders to the troops who were with me, to suspend their ranch on Tona, and to take A direction towards Moira. To-morrow they will be at Manresa, where I will arrive at the same time. I have taken-the ne cessary steps for meeting there with further accounts of the enemy. They will mire to deternrine my ulterior operations. " With Cordona the enemy has lost the advantage which he had of being supplied from that place with provisions and ammunition. A part of his cartridges must have been consumed in the affairs of the 14th. It is only at Lerida, or at Tarragona, that they can be replaced. This is one of the most serious difficul ties of his position. (Signed) " MONCEY." REPORT OFMARSHAL THE DOER OF CORNEGLIANO TO THE MINISTER OF WAR. " Manresa, lath Aug. 1823. _ _ " MONSEIGNEUR—The enemy bears on . Salsona by Tona. It is generally believed that he will move by Monblanch towards the camp of Tarragona. Gene ral and Baron d'Erolles follow him dose. My object is to force the enemy back into the came . at Tarragbna, to hasten his submission, or to forc e him to shut 'himself up in Tarragona. 4 , I have summoned the Governor. The Officers of thf garrison having assembled, they decided that one ckf them should be sent to my head-quarters to ascertain the true state of things. The Lieutenant- Colonel of the Regiment of Majorca has been fixed upon. I expect him every moment. _(Signed) 4 . ?Anibal Duc de CORNEGLIANO." _ PARIS, AUGUST 27. The Couvse of Exchange and the Rentes have Inwered about 30 cents. but we do not know the cause ; this slight diminution may be attributed to the reports generally spread about, that a sortie has been made from Cadiz, with the whole of the force ; and an affair in the neighbourhood of Madrid.--Filote. GRAND lIRAD-QUARTERS. PORT SAINT MARY, AUGUSTI6, Deven &Clock in the Morning. His Royal Highness arrived here an hour ago. The Prince enjoys good health. He was received by the population and the army with great enthusiasm. AvG.l7.—His Royal Highness has passed in re_ view his troops, who are anxious to combat Aso ene. my. Immense preparations are executing. All is ready for the attack and bombardment, if the Cortes refuse an entire submission. MADRID, AUGUST 19. The Regency has received news from Cadiz of the 12th inst. The Royal Family enjoyed good health. FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENT. "PARIS, AUGUST 26. "The Duke d'Angouleme's proclamation is the theme of universal comment, the Ultra. ultras cry out shame on it; the Liberals rejoice at it, as a certain sign of open war between the Duke and the Regency. The moderate of all parties think well of it, as the means of repressing excesses, but it is certain, that had such a proclamation emanated from a person like Napo leon, there would be everything to fear, as it would become the preparatory step to the complete usurpa tion of power in the Peninsula. Happily ;Were is no danger of this ; the proclamation is in unison with the whole of the Duke's conduct, it is the necessary de velopement of M. Chateaubriand's speech. The Duke is a pacificator, and all his measures are directed to that object. It is generally supposed that the pro: clamation was directed against the Regency, the fact is not so, it was intended to strengthen it. The • Regency has long essayed, in vain, to cause its authority to be respected ; the violent Royalists committed a thousand atrocities in its name, and it had no power to arrest the evil. Arbitrary wrests took place everywhere, and rendered all the Duke's measures abortive. In this state of affairs, his Royal Highness felt it necessary to adopt the ex treme measure of uniting, for the moment, tht civil and military authority in his own person ; many will exclaim against the usurpation, but humanity will be a gainer." A Mai) from Hambargh has brolight us this fore noon Papers to the 22d instant. The following are extracts : ST. PETERSBURGH, AUGUST 9. Count Bulgari is again appointed Charged'Affaires from his Majesty the Emperor to his Catholic Ma jesty. So long as this Monarch shall continue a pri soner, he will be accredited to the Regency of Spain. The Conservateur Impartial has an article, dated Frankfort on the Mayne, 21st of last month, to the following effect : English, French, and German journals have re peated, on the credit of the Bremen Gazelle, au artrcle, dated from St. Petersburgh, June 12, which is rela tive to the affairs of Spain, and to the manner in which the Russian Cabinet considers its influence on the rest of Europe. As none of the St. Petersburgh journals has published this article, we have reason to believe that, far from having any official character, as the Journal des Debats, of the 17th July affirms, it is a fabrication, from beginning to end. According to an opinion, confirmed by his Ma- 1 jesty, all Monks are, at their request, allowed to leave their Convents ; they return to their former temporal situations, but lose the rank, property, and hoaorary distinctions which they had before they took the vows. The new Hetman of the Don Cossacks, Jlowaisky, made his solemn entry into New Tscherkask, on the Don, on the 28th of. June. His Highness Prince Radezvill, Viceroy for his Majesty the King of Prussia, in the Grand Duchy of Posen, is arrived here. STOCKHOLM, AUGUST IS. On the 11th, the Report of the Committee on the Gota Canal, was discussed in the Chambers of the Peasants and Citizens. The grant of 100,000 dollars, in addition to the 300,000 already granted, was ac . ceded to ; the rest of the Report was sent back to the Committee. The Chamber of the Clergy approved the whole Report. A shareholder, in a letter inserted in the Mott Journal, says :—On the foundation of fiveyears' ex perience, which had been acquired in 1815, in the construction of the great Gota Canal, the expense of the sluice of Hjelmare was confidently estimated at 351,725 rix•dollars banco. Of this sum, 270,092 rix dollars have been employed, and the Directors now inform us, that, to complete the wotk, there is re quired no less a sum than 516,627 tix-dollars banco, to meet which expenses the Directors are unable tt point out ally means, but to have recourse to tlit. wisdom and favour ofhis Majesty, an I the of the Estates of the Kingdom. Baron Battram, Secretary of State, a faithful sir. vant of his Majesty Charles XIII. died on the 1 hi:. The Diet is expected to sit till the end of October. COPENHAGEN, AUGUST 19. It is positively affirmed, that his Majesty will ho. nour the Province of Jutland with a visit, at the be. ginning of next summer. M. Von &how Ins been 'this summer to examine whether the neighbourlinA of Randers, or of Viborg, is the best adapted to the purpose of assembling a body ofroops. The rates of insurance have risen considerably, in consequence of the commanica.tions of the Regency at Madrid. BERLIN, AUG us'r 19. General Von Watzdnrf, is appointed Ambassador from the king of Saxony to this Court. We have received the following important cons. munication from Lima, dated the 6th of March. It appears that the state of affairs was still very unsettled in Peru, and that the Independents continued to quar rel among themselves, although the Spanish forces were once more approaching, and the fate of the country was far from decided. A new revolution had taken place in the Government of the Republic: the Junta of Three had been abolished, and the former Chief of the Police installed in the office of Pres.. dent by the Army. This change, notwithstanding its importance, had been achieved without bloodshed. "LIMA, MARCH 6, I 82;,. " With reference to our last, we beg leave to inform you, that in consequence of the defeat mentioned in ours of the 9th ult. the minds of the inhabitants became averse to the Junta of Three, who held the reins of Government, and on the 27th February the army declared that the former Chief of the Police should be placed in the Government as President of the Republic.— Although the Congress objected in„some measure to this change, and about twenty-four hours elapsed before it was adopted, force prevailed, and the army gained their wishes, by placing RIVAOGUILO in the Government, in lieu of Lo Maas, ALVARADO,' ,and Varra'toa►DA. No blood was shed. The Minister of F War and Marine has also been removed. The Spanish troops are in Pisco, and since the 21st ult. nothing has been heard of Colq,nel Mit.Laa. He was then about sixteen leagues from Nasca, and nearly in sight of the Spanish troops, about 900 strong. His force is about 130, and fears are entertained of his safety. In all next week vessels are to be sent to Guayaquil, to bring up troops, which it Is hoped by this Goeenunent, that llotivaa will send to their assistance." HAYMARKET THZATRE.—The new Farce "Fisk °sit of IraSer," was repeated last evening with increased success, and will, no doubt, have a good run. Monday the French Ambassador gave a grant En tertainment in honour of the Festival of ST. Louis. High Mass was performed at the Catholic Chapel, King-stfeet, Portman square, on the same occasions VAUXHALL.-.-The entertainments of this delightful place still continue to attract crowds of visitors, and to deserve to it approbation. Last night the Gardens presented a splendid display of everything that can gratify the imagination and plea.' the fancy. 'The assemblage was numerous, and could one mo ment be withdrawn from the gay scenes before them, it was only to regret that the season approaches which must deprive them ofi so much amusement and recreation. A singular circumstance cook place this morning soon after two, in Vauxhall Gardens. A Gentleman accused a man of robbing him of a twenty pound note: upon his being accused, he was seen to put in his mouth, chew, and swallow it. The fact being mentioned to Mr. Hall, of Union Hall, he was in the act of taking him into custody, when be received a violent blow m the face, which caused him to bleed profusely. The fellow was secured and lodged in Vauxhall watch-house, for examination this day. Ile is a middle-aged, good looking man. The Emperor ALEXANDER is expected at Moscow on the 2d of next month. ... The King of NAPLES arrived on the sth instant at Naples, after a prosperous voyage, in company with his Royal Highness the Duke of CALABRIA, who went to meet him, and landed at Monoseglio with she Duchess of FLORIDA. The city was finely illu minated in the evening, and the public enthusiasm s said to have been without bounds on the appearanoo of his MAJESTY at the Theatre of St. Charles. By a statement in the Quebec Gazette of July 1, it appears that a considerable drininution of the traded that pert, as compared with the same period of last year, has taken place ; the deficieney is ninety-one vessels, forming an aggregate of 30,585 tons. The number of vessels arrived this year, up to that date, is 191, carrying 46,407 tons, and bringing 4374 eon grants. The number driTed at 11* same period last year, was 262, carrying 77,092 tons, and bringing 4302 settlers. The Gibraltar Chroxick of the Ist of August says, —" Though private letters received yesterday from Malaga, under date of the 29th uh. state, that it was not known that the French.had yet entered Granada, we are just informed th at news h as s i nce arr i ve d by sea, according to which it would appear that de French had entered Granada; and that at Msdagi, yesterday, they were expe c ted i n a coup l e o f d a y s .
