The Paris Papers of Kiley arrived last night by express. of which the following are extracts PAR'S, JAN. I7.—The courier who watt the bearer •o* the decision of the Spanish Government arrivi d here last night. The four notes have been ill received, and the Charge d'Affaires of Russia, Aus tria, and Prussia, have demanded their passports. There is•yet no courier from M. de la Garde. We give a rapid sketch of the sitting of the Cortes of the 9th of January. M. de San Miguel aseendcd the tribune, and first read the instructions which the French Government ;tail addressed to the Count de la Garde, as well as the answer which the Sitanish Government had amide to these communications. .The cl7icial anninunicstions of the Cabinets of ;Russia, Prussia, and Austria, were then read. The reading of these papers was interrupted by .the repeated clamours of the spectators of the galle ries. and even by noise among the Deputies. M. San Miguel observed, that as the documents which had been read contained no deterinina'e pro position, the Government of his Catholic Majesty did not think proper to reply in a categorical man ner to communications which consist merely of a tissue of false suppositions, invectives, and calumnies. lie added, that the Government proposed to i.,site manifesto, in which would be faithfully traced the history of the Spanish revolution, and of the conduct which the Government had constantly observed. _ _ _ M. San Mig uel concluded by saying, that he now intended to read the instructions which he had ad-: dressed to the Spanish Charge d'Affaires at the Courts of the before•mentioned •Powers, a copy of which he had transmitted to the representatives of those-Powers accredited at the Court of Madrid. The Minister then read the instructions which he had addressed to the Charge d'Affaires at the Court of the Emperor of Russia. The reading of this document was followed by the • greatest applause, both from the deputies and the spectators in the galleries. Amon. , the latter were al:ernutcly heard the cries of " Live Spain ; Live the Sovereignty of the People ; Death to Tyrants!" The President culled to order, and said, that the Cortes, utter having taken cognizance of the commu ukations made to the Spanish Governmont •by the .abinets of France, Austria. Prussia, and Russia, declare that no modifietaion shall be made in the COUNTY OF WEB - EFORD MEETING, On Friday Friday last, the Earl of Somers, the Lord Lieutenant of the County of Hereford, convened a meeting of that county, after the High Sheriff had refused it, in obdicorie to a requi sition most respectably s geed. At eleven o clock, the Earl of Somers, who agreed to pre side on the occasion, came into the Town-hell of Ilerelord, accompanied by the principal gentry of the county, sod a large multitude of farmers, See.—ln the WI of the groupe were Mr. Cohhidt and two other geodemen ; they succeeded iu obtaining • place as the elevated part of the Hall, where the principal personages were situated. The business of the day was mmpened by the Clerk of the Pence for Herefordshire reading the requisition. The Burl of SoMLIta thew came forward and adverted ge nerally to the prevailing • riculieial distress, and the necessity of appealing to the legislature fur relief. He strongly iacele extra the necessity of unanimity, and recommended the meet ing to discard from amon4 them any person or persons who appeared disposed to divert their attention Gem the strict business of tee day, namely, Agricultural Relief; whosoever attempted to du so, they may be sure was no real friend to their imereet. Mr. Parresnau. tame forward and proposed, after a few prefatory ahs , rvetious • series of resolutions, which were seconded by Sir H. floskyne. When the resolutions were read reriutim, and put from the chair, Mr. COBVEIT came forward. The Earl of SumEas,—Sir I take it for granted you are a freeholder. Mr. Conarrr.—Certainly I am, my Lord. Mr. Cosatvi then proceeded to make such a speech as he had done at Norfolk, and to immerse, by way of amendment, a si milar petition to the one carried et Norwich. He was received by a .urge party is the Hall with applause, and by another large party with marked opposition. He, however, proceeded to inveigh against the sapimitem of the landlords, who suffered the Jew brokers and jobbers to get possession of their estates. tied said, that according to Mr. Peregrine Courtessay'a late pamphlet, the Government would du nothing in the way of relief looked for by the agriculturists , he pointed out the Crown lands as a good source of fold for the people to look to; the church property would yield a million, the sinecure men would be made pay, and after all this was dime, they might then come with a good grace to the fundholderc but not before. He ridi culed the conduct of Government in taking a mil ion for building churches, and another million for building penitentiaries for ladies of nut a very stout resisting disposition, and haring in the penance-house, for companions, bullies and tools. The Rev. Mr. Sanylisies, Mr. Davies, the Rev. Mr. Lilly and other gentlemenessverely arraigned Mr. Cobbett's life, and pointed out the inconsistency of his public conduct' they a. id they did not want such au assistant as an itinerant polmtimod tinker, and that he tided have spared himself the trolble of coating into Herefordshire, *lsere they had gentle men enough, of every politicsl sentiment to discuss their local interest without a stranger's advice. Mr. CHARLTON ['mitered a petition which, after setting out the estreme distress of all agriculturists, solicits .immediate investigation into the causes of it—censures the lavish expen diture of Government, and the resine•Stion of cash payments— praye a suspension of all einecures and pensions—the abolition of the sinkiug fund, and time confusion of placemen trim seats in the House of Commons. Tar petition, after considerable discussion was ultittiatQly adopted, Cohbett's being negatived. Mr. Coeuhr r, conceiving that his resolutions were carried by a bleier .of hands, has expressed his deternimmition that he will petiuou the !louse of Cosstmons idt the subject. Constitution prat-Linnet! at Cadie in the year 1812, except such a measure shell be called for by the tmanimous voice of the nation, and shall be adopted in conformity with what is prescribed by the funds mental cods. After this speech M, Galion° rose. This deputy desired one of the S, eretaries to teed a proposition which he wished to submit to the decision of the Cotter. The oljee. of this proposition was to re quire that the Cortes should address a messoge to the Kitig, in which his Msjesty should be informed of the declaration made by the Congress. In the mes sage it was proposed, that the King should be as sured that the Cortes wee resolved to make every possible sacrifice for maintaining in its full integrity the Constitution of 181 2, Ali well as the splendour of the Constitutional throne; that the Cortes would furnish to the Government every a'sistnnce neces sary for repelling every hostiie attempt on the part a the Powers whose notes had been read ; and that all Spaniards would contribute with pleasure to an enterprise which had fur its object to defend the na tional liberty and independence. A great part of the Deputies rose, and wished to speak in support of this proposition. The Proeident observed, tl'at the unanimous vote of the Deputies ia fhvour tyl the motion of M. Gali ono rendered all discussion . on the subject at that moment unnecessary. M. Anguelles rose. After infitrming the Cortes with what indignation he lied heard the notes of the feur Powers read, be observed that the consideration of M. Galiano's motion ought to be adjourned, that it might be made evident to all Europe that the re solution to which the Congress was Aunt to come was not the result of a momentary impulse. The Cortes adopted the motion of M. Anguelles. M. Gaiiano then addressed the Minister fin Fo reign Alluirs. After assuring him that he did not with to irqaire item matters which the Government might perhaps be under the necessity of keeping se cret, he asked whether passports had been given to the Miuistcrs of the Powers whose notes had been read. M. San Miguel answered in the negative. He even eppeareil inclined to enter into farther particu him ; but he was interrupted by M. Gallen°, who tignided that he was satisfied with the Miuister's eply. At the those of the debate, all the deputies rose, :and the cries of " The Constitution! the National I.l.l.Tendenee I" were alternately repeated. '111.! Presiec.it adjourned the sitting. The Lieut.-Generalship of the Ordnance having been vacant upwards of four months (by the decease of Lieut.-General Sir LII. Oakes), is now supposed will be titled up, as the Duke of Wellington liliterettarned to his rtficial duties as Master General of that Dsmartment. ft is not known that soy officer is yet selected fur the vutianey. The patent salary and cmolittnouts are considered to be about 2,0001. pa aintutn. Paintoesvias tissavr.—On Tuesday evening, between Lee and nix o'clock, four girls, under fourteen years of age, whose parrots reside in rue Wantlotvottli•roail, agreed le as • each other to the tidinihing meadow, fort e purpose of engaging in the exercise of sliding. On their way thither they wet with a youth, ageti afoot 16 years, the 6011 rola Mr. Murky, a revecial,le engineer, residing Defy Kennington-Cress, who eeemoonieil them also. They had scarcely, however, ventured on the ice, when it broke, and the eldest, a hue girl, unable to preserve herself, was sinking very last. The youth oliserving her perilous situation, hastened to her issiotince, but in his laudable endeavour% he himself fell in.
