MUTINY AMONG TILE SPANISH TROOPS AT CADIZ; Intelligence of the highest importance, though by 1m means of an unexpected nature, has just reached . town from Cadiz. It relates to nothing less than a mutiny among the troops collected at that ,placa for the American expedition ; and tbongit . the details have not yet been received, nor the amount of .the at fiction asvertained, the fact itself may be relitaton with perfect certainty. It is mentioned both .in letters from Gila:tit:44%nd Cadiz, and _ls treated every communication as .of undoubted occurrence, though of indefinite extent. A part of the troops, it would appear, had been ordered fur immediate embarkution. The reluctance of some of the officers et the enterprise on which they were to .be sent had been long known, and the repeated delays in the departure of the expedition, while they manifested embarrassment and the vacillation of the Govern- , ment, gave the infection time to spread, aotlett•tWed the malcontents to exasperate disaffection into insub ordination. The numbers of the mutineers are variously stated, at J,OOO, 7,000, and 8,000 men. Some accounts add, that the mutiny began with the officers, and that they had ull been disbaaeth while others trace the spirit of revolt up froimthe men to their leathers. That the event was confidently anti cipated, appears evident by the following extrr.A. of. a letter from Gibraltar, dated the ltfrth:—, . "A revolosinn at Cadiz is roofidestly spt.kou of; the troops to a 11 , 411 have declared their inteutieii of resisting :any attempt to esslidik atria .; att. order had hero rteeiveil to e oihsik yesterday 3,04*. tur n for LagUird, it MRS expected to Weak out on that occasion." • The followiny ore more iir.t.ai:ed particulars. of the event above alluded to . .11 D 11),Jv 115.—Theneo ronAp tae) which bte,jwst bo ell dis , Dressed at tadiZ, h tiiro%ii set j o in the ciiieterotat 1 he fol owing detals of it hare been pub li bed •• • Some innvemento which tool, place in Cadiz, nod at Port St. Nl:try, Mate:lied comiilefahle feruhmtatinit in Ihr army.—'f he Commander-in-Chi.f, (Moot I) A hAril, we. informed of the C1(1'011114 of a eon4aittie, awl tank 1111 . a• torn to suppress it to it, birth, fie ,et from Cad ,z gig!, hat the night hum the 7th to the silt ia,t. hail colic' tell mine troops at the I , le of Leoa anti Fherto-Iteal, : 'mintier of 4,000 mesh With this ferce lie iiivested the Camp I.:, Vie tante, at Poi t St, Mitry, lan-ell of t imp.: of infant' y, eaytalry, artillery, air., :Moat Aroog lie tamed them to lay down their htin, , , ariested witt.ttroie the ngicert, and dispented the regiments its thrWrent too-its iii Andalusia.
