The following communisation from the See:etas, of •State for the Finance 'Department was then teed :-- In pursuance of the measures which his Majesty's Government thought it necessary to submit yester day to the Cortes, it now presents the following ad ditiond measures, having the santo.object in view : " t.

It wocordered that this communication be referred to the Committee of Finance and Public Ctedit. 'Oa the 4th instant, at six in the evening, Field- Marshal Doll C. Espinosa, with a column of 600 infantry, and 350 cavalry, entered Madrid. On their arrival, those brave men were greeted by en immense concourse of people, and the houses in the streets through which they passed were illuminated as if by enchantment. Cries of the " Constitution and Liberty" were enthusiastically repeated by the troops and the people; and in the countenances of all was plainly expressd the desire of proving their patriotism, nut merely by empty dpmonstrations, ' but by deeds, which may prove to foreigners that we are the same Spaniarde as we were in 1808.— 'the enthusiasm is so general, that .oven children despise all sorts of toys, except swords or guns. • Letters from Bayonne of the 716 inst. state, that the King of France's speech was no sooner known at St. Sebastian, Tolosa, .Bilboa, Vittoria, Logrono, and Pampeluaa, than the indignation of the citizens was at its height. " The constitution or death."— " To arms to repulse the enemy," was the general cry. Torrijos having manifested his intention to organize the national guard in Pampeluna, hereto.. foie a focus of conspiracy, above 400 citizens came to ask for ,arms. The same General having resolved to,open a road across the almost iniccesaible moun tains of Navarre, fur the purpose of sending artil lery to Irati, ,above . 800 inhabitants volunteered their labour. Great hopes existed of the speedy dispersion of the remnant of the Army of the Faith, as in the ealfies which sheltered them, the inhabit ants had themselves taken arms fur their expu:s on. • 1.1•......- 4 8 Avewsge .... 2 4 Mutton Ss 8J to 45 Id Louth 05 Od to Os 04 Veal 4s 411 to bs 4J Pork 3. 64 to 44 411 Head of Cattle at market.
