lOIZLIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, Nov. 26.—The King has teard mass in apartments. Their Excellencies the Chancellor, the Minister., the Spanish Ambassador, Prince de Talleyrund, a great number tf peers, deputies, and general officers, had the hononr of paying their court to his Majesty. The Keeper of the Sc.als and the Minister of Finance transacted busilwas with the King. Nov. 27.—General Perrin di Rorgo, Minister Plenipotentiary lona Russia to the Court of France, left Paris yesterday fur Troppau, to attend upon his Sovereign. MADRID, Nov. 16.—We learn, by a courier just arrived from Valencia, that the Archbishop is con fineo in the convent of the Trintty in that city.— The national guards and a troop of the lire are vi gilant and zealous in securing the safety of his per son, and protecting him from all insult on the part of the people. Nov. 18.—After stating the dangers with which the Spanish capital was threatened by the late irre gular appointments made by the King, and that they were only averted by the vigour and wisdom of the loyal eutlt , rities, the accounts under the above date say, " Already the military command of the province is restored to Gen. Vigodet, and the King has notified his approaching return to the ca. pital. These formal promises have quieted the peo ple." Nov. 19.—Wt are assured that the King will return to Madrid this day. We are assured that the ex Inquisitor General and Confessor of the King have been ordered to quit the Escurial. The apprehensions of a retrograde movement to despotism create such an excitement in the patriotic societies as cannot be described. How. ever, tranquillity is re established. No in.lividuals have sittli:reo during the troubles; and the presence of his Alajesty is expected to calm all fears. A private letter of the above date mentions, that on morning of the 17th, between seven and eigt o'clock, it was learned that a courier had ar rived from the Escurial, by whom the King sent hawk merely the despatch which was addressed to him the evening before by the President of the per manent Deputation. When this news spread, it eausee. the greatest agitatiou ; but the friends award order went among the crowds of people in the streets, representing the advantages of uniting mo deration to firmness—the necessity of not sullying the revolution by any excess They made known that the deputation had sent a second courier to the Ling, that his answer would be received in four Irwin., and that, until then, the authorhies womd take care the public weal shauld suffer no injury. On these assurances the pcople disdersed ; but pre cisely at the end of four hours the streets and pub lit ;aces were again filled with multitudes. who loudly demanded that decisive measures should be taken. The Deputies who were still without an anawer from the Kaig, redoubled their efforts to prevent any excess, and to induce the people to wait the reply which the King would undoubtedly make to the energetic address which • the authorities of Madrid had that day sent to him At length, at ten o'clock in the evening, this reply arrived, and the moment its contents were communicated all was quiet. FRANIIFORT, Nov. 22.—We know from good autlurity that the treaty between Spain and the I; cited States lot. the ei ssion of the Fioridas is really ratitik d. .1 he ratification of this treaty is not ofti 4. hilly published yet, but will as soon as the Spanish Government his reek ived from that of the United ligence of the e xchange of ratifications. We are daily assured that a second army of 80,000 men is to proteed to the Adige, as a reserve', when theifirst shall advance. Gen Bianchi (created Duke of Casiilanz a by Ferdinand), it is said, has refused, from feelings of delicacy and gratitude, to take the s rnmand or . this eqeditionary army. Report as s;gns it to Gen. Frimont, under the ordeTs of the Archduke Ferdinand d'Eirte. The note artlresscil by Count Capo d'lstra to the tither Ministers, on the changes which have lately happened in the three countries in the south of Europe, is conceived, it is said, in a very pacific spirit. Tl.e Ca? Israke Gazette contains the following pa ragraph:— " According to rumours circulated by several jf , imia.s, the three Nlonarchs now assembled at Troppau are engaged in forming an armed guaran tee of the legitimate monarchical order of the Governments of Europe. Intelligence of this kind is to.) premature not to be received with distrust." A private letter from l'etersluirgh gives the fol lowing account of the mutiny broke out in 04e regiment Seruonosky, of the guards:— " i'lie bvskutiltd regiment of Seinonosky, which Las tilw.ip been distin A utstieil for its execiletit 11;s- C. 1 .1i.W, IX conim , lmi d by a Colmiel ahi e extreme seve.ily in tin. minute tic Lits of tiibeidine the soi- THE NATIONAL REGISTER diers endure with impatience. For some days the irritation of their minds was increased by the punishment inflicted upon a sergeant decorated with the cross of St. George, fur some error in discipline. " The discontent of the regiment was at the ex treme, when on Saturday evening, the 23th, Ow soldiers were commanded to hold themselves in ma dicers tier a grand manoeuvre on Sunday morning.— Complaints arose in every quarter; it was said that the Colonel had no right thus to harrass the regi ment, and to deprive toeui of rest on Sunday, which is respected throughout the entire Russian army.— Their spirits were elevated, and the soldiers of the first company sent twenty of their men to the Colo nel's quarters, to declare that they would not obey him. Not finding the Colonel at home, they broke the windows of his house. _ _ _ " This state of insubordination continued during the whole of Sunday, the 29th. The General who commanded the division ut the Go:l.as, not being able to gain them over, ordered the soldiers of this company to a grand drill. Th.:) , declared that they would not resist, but that they preierred exposing themselves to every punishment, rather than remain under the command of their Colonel. They were ordered to the fortress, whith.r they went widiout hesitation. The remainder of the regiment quickly gave the same example of resistance, and the same resig nation to punishment. Being called together on the :;oth to the parade, the soldiers went without their anus, and in their gray cupotes. Gen. Poleinson, their firmer Colonel, who was very much beloved, proceeded to form them into tat, battalions, but they immediately broke their ranks, and declared they would execute no manoeuvres until they saw the first co npany at their head. /Vier three hours' useless attempts, they were ordered to the citadel, where they immediately surrendered themselves prisoners. VIENNA, Nov. 16.—We hear nothing particular from Troppau • some accounts say that the Ambas sadors of England and France continue to endeavour to set up for their Courts a system of neutrality with respect to Naples. The English Amb: , ssador comes to Vienna almost every week. FRANKFORT, Nov. 23.—The following account, though containing some repetition of circumstances already published, will perhaps be found interesting at the present moment, as exhibiting a general view of what is thought of the results of the conferences at Troppau " All the letters from Vienna agree in saying that Russia and Prussia have given their full con sent to the military occupation of the kingdom of Naples by an Austrian army. The cabinet of Ber lin had already declared bethrehaud to the court of Vienna that it would observe a strict neutrality with respect to Italy, without recognizing the legi timacy of the new order of things established at Naples, but that it would readily adhere to any thing that the Emperor of Austria should concert on this subject with the Emperor Aleander. The Crown Prince of Prussia did not hesitate to confirm, in the first confereneea, this assurance given by his father, and it was therefore not necessary to await .the King's arrival to take a final resolution on the subject in the name of the three great powers of Eastern Europe. Accordiagly on the 29th of Oct after the first formal conferences, orders were des patched from Truppau to General Count Bellegarde, President of the Council of War at Vienna, who has succeeded Prince Schwartzenbere, to take mea sures that the Austrian army stationed in Italy may be ready to march. This order must have reached the head-quarters at Treviso sonic time ago. It is known that General Frimont, Commander-in-Chief of the army of observation, had caused some corps to retrograde, is order to facilitate the subsistence of the troop.:, which had revived the hopes of main tenance of peace; but by subiequent orders all ihe corps are concentrating on the left bank of the Po ; and it is even said that some of the troops will be stationed on the right bank. Nevertheless, there is reason to believe that the Austrians will nut pass the frontiers of Lombardy durin g the in mth of No vemb:T. The time of their advance will depend ou the duration of the negotiation opened with the Courts of .‘olue and Turin, as well 'as on the issue of those which have been cart.) ing on since the opening of the conferences at Troppau with the King of Naples. At Vienna they seem to be per suaded that the occupation of the kingdom of Napl.:s will not meet with any difficulties, and that the war will be of very short duration. They think that on the approach of the A titsrian army a counter revoluti 111 l will put an end to the new order of things, and that the ancient government of Ferdi nand, will be established without much bloodshed ; for this reason Prince who enjoys the confi dence of King Ferdinand, will repair to the head-quarters of the Austrian army, and will accom pany to Naples, to direct the neginiatioas on this bead. At the departure of the last letters (ram Vienna, tned persvnt. had knowled,,e of a note pre. rented to the Sovereigns assembled at Troppau, re lative to the affairs of Naples, by Lord Stewart, the British Ambassador; but it was supposed that this note would make no change in the execution of the measures couccrted between the Cabinets of Vienna, ts:t. Petersburgh, and Berlin. " The war which is on the point of breaking out in Italy is, however, not the only thing which engages the public mind. This sear seems to be but a part of the vast and imortant measures which will emanate from the Coogress at Troppau, if the accounts which are in circulation, and which have not been officially contradicted, merit any confidence. The Ministers of the Diet are hitherto in the same uncertainty on this subject. No delegate of any State whatever of the second rank is admitted to the conferences at Troppau, or even on the spot, to make his report. The Austrian police has even removed from the trown all strangers who are not personally attached to the Congress. Negotiations are said to be on thot between several German Sovereigns to take measures iu common, after the example of the Great Powers, and to term a close alliance for the protection of their mutual interests. Since the re• port has b.en spread of a prolect to exchange two Hanseatic cities for the cities of Dantsie and Thorn, we, at Frankthrt, are not without alarm for the independence of our tree city We, however, flatter ourselves that the re-establishment of the kingdom of Poland in favour of a great northern power will meet with so many obstae,cs, that Prussia will not be called upon to cede those two fortresses on the Vistula which are situate!! in the midst of its terri tory. As for the formation of three great Protec torates, or the division of Continental Europe into several great supremacies, it seems difficult to be lieve the possibility of such a plan. " A Maritime Confederacy of the States lying on the Baltic, of which Russia would be the head, is said to be in contemplation. It is intended to regu late the commerce and navigation of that sea in such a manner that the States on its coasts may hence forward derive more advantages from their geugru phical situation." The Quebec Gazette, of the 24th, contains the annual report of that useful and benevolent insti tution, " The emigrant society of Quebec." One of their earliest objects was to form un establishment for the sick, the helpless, and the infirm, for which purpose one of the military buildings on Cape Dia. mond was set apart by the permission of the govern. ment, and, under the sanction of the inspector of I hospitals ; the professional aid and medicines of the medical department were furnished to these wretch. ell strangers. The funds of the society, arising out of annual subscriptions have not exceeded 6001. and with that sum, independently of the assistance ren dered to the inmates of the hospital, who were 500 in number, from thirty to fbrtypelpless individuals, had been supported, who must have perished with out such assistance. The society has also trans mitted addresses, and caused thehi to be circulated in Great Britain and Ireland, with the view of enlightening those persons who meditated emigra tion from the mother country, on the difficulties they were likely to encounter, and had in conse• quence reason to believe that though the tide of emigrants was not expected to be lessened, yet that the emigrants in general were of a better class and description, with more substance, better information, and clearer views. An article from Montreal, dated October 28, states that the Metho dist Conference (commonly known by the name of the Wesleyan Methodists) have come to the resolu tion of withdrawing their missionaries from the upper province, in consequence, as is supposed, of the difference existing between the British and American missionaries in that part of Canada. The Quakers, in several parts of tliccountry, have celebrated the fate of the Bill of Pains and Penalties by liberal subscriptions, for the purpose of providing coals for their indigent neighbours. Letters from Milan say that the PapalioGvernment has acceded to the requisition of Austra to allow the army to pass through the Roman States, on condition that a convention shall be concluded for the maintenance of West: troops during the time they remain in the Roman territory. The conclu sion of this convention is at present negotiating at Rome. The remaining barriers near the House of Lords were on Friday removed by the workmen connected pith the lintrd of Works. Sentinels arc still sta tioned at the entrance to the House of Commons, and bcthre the pa sags leading to Cotton garden ; but there is not any sentinel at the entrance to RAI hum:tit-street. Sir A lexa in!erllamsay, Bart. of Balamin, Scot land, has intimated to his tenants that he does not wish them to sell their grain at the prtsent inadequate prices; and iu order to enable tnem to wait for better times, has iv-sured them, that. their ents due at Martinmas, will not be exacted fur r everal months. zits 1.....
