L r. 4 t INSURRECTION IN SPAI.V. Cara. Jut. 16. — The ldisaffected soldiers in this fteighboodoink ass headed, it is said, by a brother of the King's„ Dow-Nhoooloset, use are editing considerably to their forces. Several tointleed troops, who were sent out of Cadiz a few flays ago by teeter, in order to stress then aad t the arsenal - of LS Caracca, have }laid the ionary parr, by whit lc. means that patty le nowise possession of that important post. So that neither sleets, ammunition, provisions, or water east be obtained for the men ei war. They aro therefore supplying the fleet from the provisions *lsiah are on board the transporte; they hare taken all set a sever 4 of the ships, and it is nor turn to-morrow. It is reported and generally believed here, that a °rural 0 WNW, brother to the Ileneral of notoriety; of that name, or Coude D'Abisbal, advanced three days ago from Algesiras with a corps of about 2.0t10 men, upon the post which the party disaffected to the liovern mint, as it now exists ander Ferdinand Seventh, held, and required them to surrender and give up their lead ers. The disaffected . party, on the contrary, required o'Donnel's troops so join them, or otherwise no quarter world be given them, if they attempted any offensive position. Notwithstanding this, ti'lMenel advanced, and the Mall nu, that he war completely rooted, a great number of his men killed, and those who escaped that fate joined the Revolutionists, tool the General him self narrowly escaped by flight. The Revolutionary Army have now sent in a message, by a flag of truce, by way of intimidating, to demand that Cadiz should be given op to them, and threatening, that if the citizens of Cadiz should bold eat or oppose them, that every man will be pot to the sword en their getting possession of it. What answer has been returned to this has not transpired; but it is eentidently expected that in a day or two Cadis will be in their possession. The Admiral has expressed his determination to withdraw his sailors or marines from the fort protecting Cadiz, in order to, protect his fleet, leaving the inhabitants and what few' troops stein Cadiz, mid which have been sent by water from St. Lacer and Rota to protect it, which, in the opi nion of every one, is only poor protection, as the troops only wait a favourable opportunity to join their com rades, and most part of the inhabitants are disposed to be 'of the same mind. Whether the Admiral intends to go out with the fleet or not, in order to preserve it until he sees which party is successful, or what his determination is respeetisqf it, no one as yet knows. The prevailing opinion again is, that no harm whatever is intended to any one by the Revolutionists, except they inset with obstinate opposition. They merely, it is said, insist on the adoption of the Constitution, as it was framed by the Cortes during the period of the King's confine ment in France. Which ever way these troubles may end, it is vett, generally believed that the expedition will be abandoned. The pest, being now interrupted in its usual route, goes by water to Arattionlc. a town near Portuirai, where it is conveyed through liadajo: to Madnd. This retards letters very notch. PORT ST. WART'S, JAN. l4.—Here n e are as quiet as if nothing had happened. The troops passed through a few days ago, having prod:limed the Constitution, as established by the Cartes. They were received with epee arms •by every body. A new municipality has been formed, every body took the oaths of fidelity to the Con stitution. Cells is now closely blockaded, all the envi rons beteg in possession of the Constitutional troops. An article frees Cadiz, dated January 14. says, the Constitutional 'ray appears to have the town of St. fensendo foe its hewilicarters ; it is about 7,000 strong, and they may easily de ad themselves a long time in a position so wrong, if provisions were more abundant.

OALWAT, Jas. 31.—1 t is with pleasure we hare this day to record the vigilant and indefatigable exertions of several of our county gentlemen, in anppreesing sec tarital meetings, and the administering of illegal oath*. Mr. French, of Slonivae Castle, sasembled his tenantry to a considerable atuoult, from the bridge of Mammas to Abbers: and from the judicious manner in which he has them ilistribnted, he ausecssfidly resists their incur sions in that district. Mr. Blakeney has his stationed front Abbers to Meynet and Mr. Browne has his te nantry similarly disposed of, thereby intercepting an the coinesionications through which they could possibly pass. Each gentleman has a certain number of unit' placed for a given period at a proper distance asunder, and they alternately relieve each other, which prevents them from being taken unawares, or much harassed. li the neighbourhood of Hampstead, Kilconnel, Ballymacll- ward, and Woodlawn, Lord Ashtown, Messrs.

We are informed that the tenantry of Lord Clancarty have strictly adhered to the injunc tions of their humane and indulgent landlord, and that they most cordially assist his Lordship's brother, the' Hon. Rev. Dr. Trench, who, upon this, as upon all occa sions, is inflexible in the discharge of his 31agisierial functions—the greater number of the tenantry arc arm- • od, and sunder the direction of his reverence. The par-, pert of the oaths (which we are informed are many) these unfortunate and misguided wretches administer are unknown to us. The nature of the first oath, if we can rely on the information we have received is, "That those persons sworn are to be in readiness, when Am atoned to attend the meetings, to be held at their place of rendezvous, at Ballinafici, and to bring with 4iso 10d. each. We have been favoured by a gentleman with the pin eal of a letter, stating " That on the night of Friday last, a number of Hibhonmen ha,l assembled at Belly macward, in the barony of Kilconnell, and entered Ate dwelling-house of Mr. John Evans, of Mount-Ventore, which, with the furniture, &r they demolished. The family were at Captain Davis's, of Hampstead, at the time, and fortunately escaped the impending danger. They also assembled Close to Hampstead, where they had i a conflict with Captain Davis's armed tenantry, who, gave them a warm reception, and made them retire pee-i cspitately, not before (it is strongly snpposed) soteemf them were either shot or wounded.

MO. -...4....,-- We have this morning received Paris papers of Saturday. Cadiz, it appears, still holds out against the Constitutionalists. Some private letters affirm that the proclamations addressed by Gen. Freyre to the rebels, in the name and on the behalf of the King, had been successful beyond his expectations, and that many officers, as well as soldiers, had ac cepted the promised amnesty for the past. But this assertion is completely at variance with other accounts, which represent the insurgents as in creasing in strength and confidence. Thus do we regain half-informed ; nay, worse, we are contradiatiesly informed. We did not, to be sure, expect to receive regular or accurate intelli gence froth Spain itself, but we did hope indirectly to be better instructed of what was going forward on so momentous an occurrence as a mutiny ; nay, more than a mutiny, a regular insurrection i■ the chief assemblage of the Spanish army—in a city within a day's post of Gibraltar. The object of this military assemblage is not, as we have observed, a mere mutinous objection to • particular sorriest, but a call for a IREFoRim in the Government-4 Constitution by the Cortez of the coullitty. 11?Ary day we look fir &further development of this dm midable proceeding, so as to augur what may be the ultimate issue of it. There has been no Sitting of the Chamber of Deputies. By a Bulletin, it appears that Deputise have been chosen to form the Commission of Ways and Means. The Court went into mourning, on Sunday, for the Electress of Hese. The Court of Prussia did the like, upon the same occasion.
