They contain the 3/./t/rid Gazelle Extraordinary, with the list of the Junt.t appointed ad interim, before whom Ferdinand has taken the provisional oath to maintain the Comti,..l:i:::l published at Cadiz by the Gearral ana 1.;;, , ,iiti. , ,ry Curter in 1812. In conformity to the Constizution,the Cortes are to be inuricdiately cony coed, botiire whom the King is to solemnly ratify the oath in the form which the Constitution prescribes. The patriotic Ballastcros has bom appointed General in Chief of the Army of the Centre. The Spanish Ambassador in Paris 1-a:; anuounced in the Monikur, that all Spaniards now in France, and who left their country in consequence of their political opinions, may return home ia consequence d a decree of amnesty, an I that they wiil be furnished with pass ports accordi. , 6ly. T!'a Duke de San Carlos, the Spanish Ambassador :o the British Court, issued a notice yesterday to the same effect, to all Spaniards residing in this country. Un the 9th instant, Ferdinand held a Court in his Palace for Spaniards, which was numerously attended. Madrid has been brilliantly illuminated three nights successively in consequence of the late glorious events. The Mu nicipal Corporation has been re-established, as it existed in 18 14, under the Cortes. This respectable body his purged itself of such of its Members as had :Altered to the alxtlition of the Constitution. A Deputation of this new Municipal Corps proc:cdcd to the Palace. and were present .it the taking of the oath by the King before the Provisional Junta.— When those who were incarcerated for political opinions were liberated from the prisons the male factors endeavoured to make their escape. They fell upon the three ccutinels, disarmed and ki3ed them ; but the guard having promptly arrived dis charged a volley among them, when nineteen were killed, 00 the otheis retreated to their cells. A letter from Barcelona of the 11th gives an account of that province having shaken oft its fetters. The Constitution was proclaimed on the 10th amidst the joy and enthusiasm of the people. The doors of the Inquisition were broken open, and after the unhappy stetrerers therein were enlarged and put in safety, the hateful prison justly became the prey of the enraged populace. Among others who were delivered 1:om the dungeons of the Inquisition, was the Count de Montijo, who it was generally believed was in secret confinement in Gallicia.— His family had even gone 200 leagues distance, to St. James de Compostello, where they conceived he was in captivity, to welcome his emancipation.— The intelligence from Paris is uninteresting. On Saturday the Chamber of Peers assembled, when the Projet the Law relative to individuals was referred to a special commission, composed of five members, after which the Chamber aijourned Sine die.
