The article which appeared to be official, because the news arrived by telegraph, has excited great alarm, The matter is now explained—that is to say, a journal that night gave the lie to the story, and described what had happened in the fol lowing terms:— The fire was discovered Art three (Mot* in the morning of the 11th, in a wooden -hut, 12 metres long by 5 wide, situated to the west of the Pigou- Here of the port. A part of the hut Was employed as a depot for carpenters' souls, and another part was appropriated to the reception of articles used in ship-caulking. " The hue was entirely destroyed, and the fire communicated itself to the Pigouliere ; but that being a stone-building, end vaulted, it afforded an opportunity for checking the flames, and about half past four -% the conflagration was completely got under.

Foreign menaces have at lust put all Spain in motion, and if the invaders have nut large corps of the army to encounter, they will not find the fewer enemies on that account. The following is aietter from Brest of the 13th of March:...." You will recollect that the Brest squadron put to sea on the 'lsth of February---it Was composed of a ship of the line, having on board Admiral Hamelin, the brigs Lancer and Enryalus, the frigate Le Gueprier, and the corvette Bebe. After the first day the brig Lancer sailed to the west, and with it the corvette Jiebe and the brig Eargains, returned to the roads. The latter having suffered much, took its station is the Gulf of Gas cony, where the winter is very severe. Towards the 22d of February it made Cape Ortega!, and met a considerable number of English ships bound to Spain; but on the Bth and 9th of March, the vessel was struch by a horrible tempest ; its gear were carried away, and a heavy wave wetted even its powder and provisions. A sailor was lost, and 23 hurt; five severely. The vessel leaked in all parts, and re-entered Brest on the 11th of March iu a most wretched plight. Such is the result of a cruise, which even the English do not attempt in war time, in such a season, and which has been as troublesome as useless." The situation of Madrid becomes every day more critical. it is generally suppoeed that ere the King leaves Madrid, oceans of blood will flow, as was the case when Murat in 1803 carried oll; from the pa lace of Madrid, the Infants Dun Antonio and Don* Francisco de raulo. It is said that many of the lower order's and a great number of military officers have joined for the purpose of opposing by force the departure of the King. Every night a great num. ber of these surround the palace : a s soon as they perceive that tile royal family are to be removed, the bells of Santa Martha arc to be rung, which is to be the signal for a general rising. It is calculated that the journey of the King and the Cortes will cost thirty, millions of reaux, but the Goternment does not know where to get it, as the coffe.s of the Treasury arc exhausted, eavecially as it is not above Quesda has addressed a proclamation to the In habitants of the three Biscayen provinces. He does not hesitate to assert, that the sentiments expressed in the speech of Louis XVIII. have been repeated with enthusiasm by the whole of France, and that the Duke of Angoulerne is coming with 100,000 men, not to dictate laws to Spain, but t o set f ree their captive King. The llisc4ans are afterwards told that there are but two nations in Europe, the one consisting of Atheists, who want to destroy altars and thrones; the other of pious men, the friends of lc;!itiroacy. The former conspire in • darkness the destruction of every thing sacred. The latter are represented by the tuagnammous Princes of the Holy Alliance, the conservators of social order. The leader of the Faith has also published an address to the Constitutional troops, inviting them to join him These proclamations are dated St. Jean de Luz, March 10. It is stated that there bas been a great fall of snow in the Pyrennees, which renders some of the roads that communicate with Spain impamahle, I'Ant.s, M A RCH 9.—Belore mass, the King gave an audience in his aparinciits to the President of the Bureau of the Chamber of Peers, who presented the project of the law iu relation to the veterans, passed in the last session.
