They contain the following important ad ditLnis to the intelligence trop Madrid : TIM NATIONAL •RI;GIST}`R cretnry of "State, and of the f inances of Spain and ti.e Indies. I appoint as his sneccsior, par ihierim, hscph Irr ua , my Count,J7or of Finances, and First Dir..ctur General of Reines I3y the presents it is mane known to you. " Signed by the King's heal, at the Palacz, the 13th Sworn h-r, !Sot. "To Doa Francois Egnia." Nl.Tizarro will net be much regretted ; but M. Garav,•will be .exceedingly so. .1t is raid, that M. de Casa-lrujo, who succeeis the former, is a in.in of gru►t • talents anti celebrated far his integr:i)-. The new Grand Int i u:sitor, who has recently been cp pointe,l, is the Bishop of Terrazona, M. Cutilln. This change •in the Ministry, has astonished every body, by the celerity ana mystery with which it is ef fected The 11inisters were ignorant of their .fate en the evening of the 14th, when they r...turoed from the Palace, and they were only informed of it at triluight by no Officer of the War Depart.li4:llt, M. E . 4111./ ; by six o'clock on the morning of the 15th, they hal unit tell Malr...!. M. Pizarro on the mate to Valencia, with his wife in the last stage of pregnancy; M Garav on . that to Saragossa, and M. Figueroa, with his 14azily, on that to Corunna. MaJame Pizarro was refused permission to lye-in here ; her mother, who went to implore the King's cle mency, 'received orderz to join her daughter instantly, and she set ofir on the Ifith at two o'clock. The Itirquis de Casa-Irojo arrived here from Cadiz on the day that M. Pizarro departed, who had sum moned him for a different object: he has been Minister to the United States and the Brazils : he ii a man of talent, who has long followed a diplomatic career. It is assorted, that some days previously to the re moval of then Miaisterg, they had - influenced the King toget rid of MM. E;;aia and 'Lozano de Torres, who. eloquently defended themselves, and obstinately resis ted their adversaries. A private letter from 'Madrid, dated the 17th ult. is inserted in the arrotidicone. .The ealy facts of impor tance which it communicates are the following : " It may be Tegarded as a proaf of the intention of his Majesty to adopt every thing which may be con formable to a vigorous and decisive system, the resolu tion he has taken to make no altece:on in the financial plans of M. Garay, whose disruiso , Lis attributed to the state of his health, which preventerthim from executing his own plans with a prop.s degrec-QC. energy. " It is absolutely false, that Mistiame Pizarro was .prematurely brought to bed at °canna, or at auy place along the road. Every one, however, takes the most lively interes in the fate of this Lady,whois so estimable in every point of view." The following are further extracts from these Papers :- ‘‘ PARIS, SEPT. 29.—. The rumour which is led, that the Grand Duke Constant.ne will visit Paris .at the close of the Congress, has some appearance of authenticity ; in consequence, hopes are entertained that lux August brother, the Emperor Alexander, will honour our capital with his presence. . C A RI. 6 RI) C, SEPT. 24.—1 t is confirmed that our troops are to be put in motion. They will be eoncen• trated in the Palatinate; Alanheim, Reidelburghp Ladenburg, and other cities will have. strong garrisons. It is hoped that the decision of the Allied Powers, on the subject of the Palatinate, will be favourable to us. " LILO; SarT. 24 —" The Duke of Wellirgton, accompanied by two Aides-de-Camp, arrived yesterday in this city. To morrow besets off for Spa." 'OCT. 4 SHERIFFS OF HIDDLESEX. 'Tn OF THE NATIONAL REGISTER. SIR, Arrest, ee Mesne l'ro.css, I believ'e, Editor, very _generally considered a measure of great severity, and to feral a singular toe tune in the juris. prudence of these: retinas. As c greet commercial country, perlinne, the step might be iediepeeeibly ne ceseary, end ulna ell that can consisteetly be dune, at invsteit, is to soften its rigour, till convenience will permit its removal altogether. The sheriff of the county, it is well known, is the executive power e and that he appeiets his officers, far the execution of writs directed to him, and is aiixerable, ad civiEler, though not oft rrintinotor, for their conduct on the occasion. It •is therefore tiecesearv, fur the sanity of the sheriff, that he should take ample security for his ofiicere, which, I understand, he ins:aria:4 (keit.; but inasanich us he is not answerable thr ate done by them, which ewt,be be compe.nsated •by a pecuniary fine, the public have a right to expect, that he will tele care to a--point men of goo:t mend characters, end that he will mot tranieuit his authority to those a hesc infitemus , contluet might have rendered their remeseil a matter of necessity -feoin a similar situation.; and thereThre I eheeld recommend him to take nnothee glanee over Arose he leis Already appointed, and sec it' there be tiny among them unwer. thy of being - his representative,. There is also I vu. deretand a heavy fine or f;.e rid by the officers, on their re-admission, either to the titulersheriffi, for the time being, -or their deputies ; which, I humbly subtuit, is a very bad example, as tending to encourage. the officers to acts of extortiun, with a view to remunerate them selves, what, in Eta, their principals heee extorted front them. It is not, • I believe, !more titan tire or three years sine the Grand Jury of this county found bills of indictment against the then sheriffs and undershe riffs, and I believe their deputiee, for extortion, in de manding large sums from their officers. 1 do not imme diately recollect how these indictments were dieposed of.; but I have invariably heand, from legal characters, that the law, on the case, WAS decidedly against the sheriff, and that-the fees . .which had been demanded, and received, were, in the next sheriff:by, abandoned.; hut the offs. cers, .I am told, were excluded from receiving any remit. aeration, during that sherifralty, .on writs of execution, which must have ameonted to many hundred poisiels, and which I understand were withheld ti cempensate the sheriff, his undersheriff, Ike. far the losses which they had sustained on account of the indictments I have alluded to. That . a measure so pointedly and so re. cently condemned by a Grand Jury of the county, should again be resorted to, must create astonishment in the inject of every one acquainted with the fact ; but the indisputable evidence which has bean afforded me of the increased demand, enables me boldly to nralse the assertion, and to challenge contradiction I, hew. over, cannot help thinking that the sheriff, on a cud and dispassionate consideration of all the circumstances, Will perceive -his duty in this particular, in the sante light I do, and adopt the necessary means for counter. acting an evil, the baneful influence of which must otherwise be sensibly felt throughout the most pops. lons county in the united kingdom.. In every county but Middlesex, very trifling sums, the bare stamps and labour, arc paid to the sheriff, by his officers, on their appointment or admission : and submit it would not be unworthy of the next Parlia. meet to extend the acts, by which the conduct of the sheriffs and uadersheriffs of every other county in the kingdom are regulated, to that of Middlesex—it would be the means of putting a stop to a disgraceful traffic. annually resorted to there with impunity, and foe which the sheriffs and -undershmiffs cf every other county would be visited with heavy pains and penal. ties, and the latter, if 'morales, struck off the roll, and for ever incapacitated front again practising in any of our courts of law or equity. I ant not, Mr. Editor, in the habit of submitting my writing to the public eye, but if it meets your approbation, I may, perhaps, on some future occasion be more explicit. -Yours obediently, • Oct. 2,- 18 18. • •.T; T.
