MADRID, THURSDAY, JAN. 9.—lhave kid this moment erttorned from the Cortes. after witnessing a nation's anew and a sation's tears. At this hour I see no de letion inconsistency, no evil, in the Spanish Conatitu tiois4 To me it is the part of a people resolved to be Ink altd worthy of liberty, and thrum Kings who oppose Oast wish itS downfall, are despots, whose onlyobject is biltteep their subjects in eternal chains. If this be norm laaguage, you must impute it to that irresistible imitslie of nature which bids an Euglishman always to nip„ pathise with the free, for I feel that I could take op , s for a constitution which I have just seen so as d'id so defended. In a large assembly of agi• 1 t silmlioll of one heart and pulse, there is a phy nermearaleation of thoughts sod resolutions from one to the other, and he must be either more or less thlin man who can steel himself against it. aifore this time you have, of course, read the notes e three northern courts, and the circular answer h this government has sent to them. Yon have ,no doubt, 'seen the accounts of the proceedings lch took place to-day in the Cortes, when these do cdeaents, as well as the instructions to the French hli nliter, and the reply to them, were read by San Miguel. Bslt an verbal description can convey to you the effect prmluced by these papers upon the assembled Ministers, Deputies. and strangers, wiko heard them thus solemnly opted to the whole world. The Curtes had been pre- viously engaged upon a question relating to ecclestas• tical property; but from the manner in which it was pasted, it was easy to perceive that the minds of the Deputies were fell of anxiety and fervour upon another subject. Now soil then this sentiment broke out, and there was a partial cheer, when Senor Velasco, a cler wean, oald, " I have learned to suffer pr!vations. hut *re is no sacrifice which I can deem too great for the benefit df Spain ; and even though I were about to be come the victim of indigence, still my last resources should be exhausted for the constitution and the liberty of the nation." This discussion was anspended when tho Secretary of State enteral the Hall of the Cones, mid San Miguel rote. Upon the instant every person present was breathless with attention, and the silence not pervaded the Hall and the crowded tribunes and galleries was as profound as if it were a desert. He is o• bad speaker, bat every word he uttered was caught almost before it was spoken and rooted La tate memory. After a short preface, he proceeded ge; /cad Ore. documents from one of the rostrums which are place+, at each side of the chair, and are never occupied but for she pasepose of reading official cumin ttleations or the questions in debate. He performed his task very badly. reeding in a dull monotonous voice, as If be were &school boy conning ov.r his lesson before a severe master.

Yet no aid of ion malt weetowssy te render every wonl that fell betptiowitte tit 4e highest sky& The French leis were hi tied over, having bees previously so well koown; but when he came to that passage of his answer Which says that Spain was indiffereot as to the results of the Congress of Verona, because " 'veers of its yriseiplee, and fires in the determination of defend leg. at elm hazerd, its present political system and ittatloiel ineepeodenee. -ebere wee • g I beret of enthusiasm, many of the Deputies and the spectators clapping their bands. These applause • were renewed at the close of almost every subsequent paragraph, and when this paper was concluded, they were continued for several minutes. The Austrian Note was heard in silence until the Minister came to the words " and a military reriellios never ran form :lie basis of an auspi ciousaud permanent Government ;" there was a short murmur of indignation, which would hare been louder but for the intense desire which was felt to hear dis needy what followed. The Assembly, taking it altoge ther, seemed struck with surprise at the light in which this Note represented the history of the Spanish Revo. lodes. iVhes they heard it said that the principal in struments of the Spanish revolution had excited Naples and Piedmont to follow the example of the Peninsula, Riego, Gallant), Arguelles, and others, smiled at the assertion, wondering at the hardihood of Metternich, who could put forth such a falsehood ; yet it was soon evident that this note, the result of Metter nick's experienced wisdom, was drawn op with tact and a knowledge of human nature, for before the general indignation was raised to its height, it was wonderfully softened by that appeal to national pride which was so artfully wrought up in the allusion to ,the peculiar pried. tion of of Austria. But this result was only for the moment, for, although the remainder of the Note was framed in language alternately soothing and severe, the terms in which the King was spoken of, as a captive deprived of his liberty—and the authors of the Consti tution represented as acknowledging its impracticability, excited unqualified hostility. When the Note was con cluded, however, there was no very general expression of indignation. as its effect was in some measure qualified by the friendly and admonitory tone in which 'tended. _ - After pausing a few minutes, San Miguel proceeded to read the Note from Prussia. Every thing depends chiefly upon the manner in which it is done. There %vas a great deal of Battery in the commencement of the Prussian Note, but it sounded hollow, end evidently ap peared as if throws in by a command which said, " Put down something in the beginning to cajole them." The consequence use, it was laughed at. Ihe dignity of the Assembly could se arcely be preserved when that passage was read, which stated that the Cortes " presented no thing more than a conflict of opinions and objects, and a struggle of interests and passions in the euidst of which the most foolish resolutions and ptopositions have been constantly crossed, combatted, or neutralized." This picture of the Cortes and its d bates, if not 'aide, was at least well calculated to exeite laughter by the zeal which it professed to entertain for those proposi tions which it terms " the most foolish." The remain der of the Note, which is full of invectives against the Constitution, was received with indignation, not unfrequrntly interrupted by strong expressions of con tempt. But all the rage of the Cortes—or rather, I might say, of the public Assembly, for the spectators in the galleries seemed to form an integral part of the meeting—all the rage of ibis crowded and anxious assetutsly appeared to be rrrrr veil for the Russian c 1111 l muttication. sen. tense commencing the second para g raph, •• when in the 111011111 of March, 1211, some perjured soldiers turne.l their arms against their Sovereign and their country," &c. was frequently interruoted by moruiiirs froni the galleries and the Deputies, and amidst these I heard itu•re than once the imprecation, " Abase° el tiruno!"

They found mat ter enough for their exaltation in the Russian Note ; and to de them justice, there was scarcely an epithet which they bestowed upon it that it did not d e. During the time the Minister was reading this paper. the agitation among the Deputies was extreme. Some Wrung from one Side to the other in a state of painful suffering; some raising their hands on high in astonish ment; some looking intensely on the Minister, their faces fired with vengeance; some, the elderi of the Senate. fixed like rocks. against which the waves and storm* of ages have toiled in vain. In every teen's countenance you might read different expressions; but in all, the thing expressed was the same—home at the violent misrepresentations which they belieyed these Notes contained, and a burning desire, not only to resist the agg•essioos which menaced their Spain, but to rush forth to avenge the insults which *ere Sang upon hetv liberty and honour. When, at length, these mingled feelings found a'partial utterance in the noble reply of the President, it was like this sudden announcement of a victory, in which the Ood of battles, bad decided for the free ; it was a moment of glory, and tears alone could tell the proud thoughts that filled every breast. To this momentary pause succeeded a peal of fleas, which lasted for several minutes. They were often renewed during the debate which followed ; but as the rest of the proceedings are fully detailed in the papers, l must refer you to them, only adding, that those who were present on this occasion in the Cortex, whatever their political prejudices or notions may be, will ever look hails to it as one of the most hallowed days of their existence. Friday, Jan. 10. I forgot yesterday to state, that though there is a tri bune oo the right hand of the chair, for the accommoda tion of the Ambassadors. the only foreign Minister pre sent was Sir William A'Court. He was attended by Messrs. Ward and Elliots, his secretaries, and by Mr. Jackson, who has lately arrived here wish despatches of an important nature, and who waits to take home a verbal answer, lest by any accident, a written one might be intercepted; several other English Kral/omen were present, and it was observable that frequently the Depu ties fixed their eyes attentively on this tribune, as repre senting that great and free country from which they have as yet experienced nothing but friendship, avid from which they ardently hope to meet with assistauce. When in the Notes a sentence of peculiar despotism was read, many an eye was raised to that tribune, to read the impression which it made there. Sir W. A'Court't countenance gave them ueither hope nor despair; but several of his emuntrymen took very few pains to restrain that abhorrence which these documents mast ever ex cite in the breasts of men who know what freedom is and are resolved to maintain it. These expressions of sympathy I obser►ed were anxiously looked fur by the gepaties. and afforded them evidently great satisfaction. 'They raisarlieil Upon them one to the other, and occa sionally smiled. Last night a number of people paraded through differ ent parts of the capital, attended by a band of music which played several patriotic airs. They carried large torches in their hands, and shouted at intervals Lire Is Crwtitutien, They played under the windows of the Palace, soil under those of Arguelles,Oaliano, and seve ral other popular Deputies. The newspaper presses of Madrid were never known to labour so hard as they have done to-day. From the length of the matter requiring a supplement, the journals, especially the L'aiversal and the Espertador were late in their publication. From an early hour of the morning, however; their respective offices, and the streets leading to them were thronged with applicants for papers. During the whole day the demand was so great that it was impossible to satisfy it, but a plan was adopted which in some measure compensated for this defect. When a lucky patriot succeeded in getting a paper lie posted to tbel'uerta del Sot, or to the arcades of the post office, and here, as soon as he produced his prise.a crowd collected around him and he read aloud the whole of the journal from the beginning to the end. I saw several of these greupea so employed, all ears to catch the hurried sounds of the reader. In general the Spaniards pronimuce their beautiful language in a clear and distinct manner, but I was suprixed at the energy of elocution which sonic of these politicians displayed. The remarks which the listeners occasionally made were short and pithy. "Hear,', said one, " hear this Prus• lien King, who once promised a Constitution to his u a subjects ;" " and who never gave it," added another. " Only observe:how tender lie is of the Catholic Chtirc!t: he himself a heretic." This caused a laugh. " Now tor the Russian bear," remarked another. " Down wide the patricidal race I down with the tyrant!" they said. as the reader proceeded. The acuteness which the peo ple composing these groupea displayed, though thea raiment was nut, perhaps, altogether of a courtly fashion, was surprising. 'They sheweu it not, perhaps, so uniea in auy observations which they made, as in the eager ness with which they received and understood every word they heard. Saturday, January 11. Whatever mNy he the result of the struggle which Spain seems about to make for the preservation of her present Constitution, this is a day of which she may well be proud to the remotest generation. I have just returned from the Cortes, kindled, in every nerve, as on Thursday, with the sounds of patriotism and freedom which I heard on every side. The question, you are doubtless already informed, was on the Message to the King front the Cortes, evincing their opinion of the Notes that bad been received from the four Cabinets ; Ind eKr pressing their determination to make every sacrifice for the preservation of the Constitutional Throne, and of the nation's liberty and independence.
