MONDAY, APRIL £4. -.40.- By the Paris Papers of Tuesday last, we learn that on.the preceding day there was much clamour in the Chamber of Deputies in consequence of the introduction of a new Election Law by Count Si meon, Minister of the Interior, to supersede that which had been previously submitted to the Cham ber during the Administration of the Count Decazes. The new projet authorized only such modifications in the mode of electing Deputies as were peremp tory and indispensable. Immediately after the projet was read, the Liberals rose and vociferated against the irregularity of receiving the communi cation, as the former project was still before the Chamber. The President observed, that any Mem ber had a right to withdraw a proposition, and that certainly they could not deny that right to the Royal Prerogative. He then lead the 17th Article of the regulation, which were framed for the guidance of the Chamber under such circumstances.— —The n iberals of the left still continued their clamour, and several of them simultaneously ad dressed the President in the most vehement lan guage. The latter. with a view of getting rid of the Babel vuciferations. put the question on the Order of the Day. Another noisy scene ensued, when the President rose and declared the sitting suspended for an hour. A' the expiration of the hour he resumed the Chair, and the question for the printing and distribution of the communication was then put and carried almost unanimously, after I , which the Chamber adjourned. Farther changes have'taken place in the Spanish Ministry, but they arc still favourable to the revolutiou. Arguelles, one of the most distinguished sp'akers in the Cortes of Cadiz, has been appointed Minister of Grace and Justice, in the room of Jose Garcia de Torres, who filled that office since the 9th of March last. Juan Javat is appointed Minister of the Marine in the room of Luis de Zabiar ; and Garcia de Hcrreros is c!targed with the Ministry of the Home Depart meat, in the !lace of Jacob Pargo, who had held the office, ad interim for a few days. This intelli gcnct.. reached Paris by an extraordinary Courier, who left Madrid on the loth of April, and was 6etxted to the Spanish Charge d'Anires, on the ;:uillosition that the late Ambassador, the Duke Fern:ln Nunez, was on his route from i'aris fur .Madrid.

The ornaments, con sisting of the rose, the thistle, and the shamrock, as well as the emblems of the Orders of Knighthood, have a beautiful clroct. The old ivory chair has been removed to make: room for a new one, suitable to the splendour of the Throne. It is covered with the finest crimson velvet, iichly embroidered with gold lace. The Hoes: is newly fitted up in the most splendid manner. COrENT GARDEN THEATRE• A new Gperatic Piece, under the title of //, nri Qualm, was on Saturday night produced at this Theatre a ith deci ded success.
