Although this event has been contrary to our wishesoand even to the hopes we had indulged, we have not to reproach corselets with baring misled our readers, or looked et the prospects of the liberal party in Spain with too favourable an eye. We have always faithfully bold up to sight the dangers to which the Constitution was exposed, and the difficulties with which its advocates bad to contend. We certainly asserted that it was only by the manifestation of a degree of devotion, and reeointion. beyond all ordinary calculation, that the liberties of Spain could be defended. The disparity of means between the feeblest, and the most powerful of the European States, was so iself-evident, that when it was declared, the French could march from post to post in Spain. no one could doubt that it, was not only possible for them to do this, but, highly probable that they would. Bat on their success with the fortified towns, we did not Weida* so favorably to them. There it was within the power of the Spaniards to make a resolute resistance:-- and the Cortes ought to have taken care, u they had ample wig of the Freed+ approach, that the fortifications seem ocespied by men who would bury themselves under the rains, rather than surrender them. Spain has such nolo, if they had been diligently sought fort but it has bowl only in Catalonia, where patriotism has been secoapsaiod with the requisite magnanimity. The French Matt do latropor own bad been selected to command; .1 : 1.7 . 1 . THE ST ATE*MAN. i wore footing in the country, they began to try the•liorce of bribery. This has succeeded beyond their hopes. They have not yet taken one fortress by assault:—but they have purchased the surrender of the most considerable. They bought their way to Madrid, by hiring the treason of Abisbal. They purchased an en trance into °Alicia. in the same manner. by hiring Murillo to betray his country. The governor of Corinna, Novella, sold that fortress to General Bourck. Pampelassa, and all the .places whisk have surrendered. except Pigtteraus, have been enterednti the same terms : and to, crown the whole, Cadis hae'saitendered without firing a shot in its own defence, and evert without waiting for the assault. No one will pretend be say, that for some days at least, it could not have misted' ill that French valour could have performed againit k.'

These. slpiy re s ults are certainly heightened in gloom, by • the liddition of .Cadis, to the list of the conquests of Isriliort,L-and the di.persioti of the Cortes, who had solemnly ,pledged themselves to die with the Constitution, 6f which they were the guardian* But the principles of liberty are immortal, although their advocates are but fallible men. The torch, though torn from the altar, and trampled under the feet of the foreign oppressor, is not extinguished ; and some daring hand will yet be found to snatch it up, and wave 'sparking anew with the soul-inspiring heat, in the face of the leagued despots of the Continent. Their object of a vanish pacification cannot be accomplished. They are hi' the midst of combustible materials; and a single spark thrown dextrously, or accidently amongst them. will light up the Continent to its 'extremest bounds. Therefor', while we deplore the fate of Spain, we cannot despair of the ultimate triumph of the principles which her patriots have proclaimed; nor do we despair of witnessing the band of retributive justice falling heavy on the traitors who have for the moment destroyed the hopes of that un• happy country. • We have heard that the capture of Riego, and the base surrender of that hero by the French to the Regency, determined the Cortes to liberate the King, as the only means of sating the life of the gallant soldier. The liberation of the King, of course, annihilated the power of the Regency, and it is rumoured also that the Duke d'An gouleme found the prrience of the King requisite to combat the fanatic and frantic designs of the Regency.— These matters, however, depend upon the course which Ferdinand may think proper to take. Judging from his past einduct, we should say, that he would be as ready to sacrifice Riego, as the regency ; and that he would bemore likely to throw himself into the arms of the fanatic faction, than to listen to the moderation which Prince Hilt would be likely to advise. The passions of Ferdinand are too boisterous, to allow him to listen to prudence in the gratification of his revenge. It is also rumoured that Riego's capture was facilitated by a treacherous betrayal of the whole plan of his intend• ed movement to the French commander; who was the, enabled to counteract it, by sending forward detachments to the scrim points of the intended route, Though these detaehntente.lpttahed foistard in hide, were not stroncl enough to have contended with thsloree under Itlego's commititd i yet by the fitirprise produced at being found where they were not expected, they spread an alarm which was as ratites defeat.

SIERRA Litoies.—On Thursday 'arrived his Majesty's iettm-brig Snapper, from the count of Africa. She left I Sierra Leone on the let of September. The most important article of information brought by the Snapper is, that the Ashantees were approaching Cape Coast, i n econaiderable nuribers. with the Intention of making an attack on 'and plundering the colony. The private and public property there is very considerable. Sir Charles M•Corthy was about to leave Sierra Leone for Cape Coast. to direct the operations.

Mtn, OCT. 11.—An unfortunate accident hap petted to Mr. Cook, at the Theatre, on Monday night, while performing in Obi, or Three Fingered Jack, from the discharge of a pistol, by Mr. Sholders, who, as he rushed from the cave, without perceiving the former gentleman, pulled the trigger while the merle was almost close to his face, which was seriously hurt. We understand Mr. C. is in fair way of recovery. By the Stockport Advertiser, we learn that Mr. Harrison, the political preacher, as he is termed, who had been, along with Sir Chae.

In conseqnence of a dispute between J—s S—y, Esq., of HEIRIOR, and It --d Esq., of Brock. vine, near Bandon, the parties met near Innoshannon, for the purpose of fighting a duel—they were here prevented by the police. but they found means to meet about one o'clock, near the town.

By the Dublin Papers which have day, we learn, that Mr. Johnston was about to re. &ere the toast was proposed, and that when it was given, was a strong feeling of disapprobation manifested by ns hers present. Immediately after he had returned thanks, b. retired, sod as be proceeded between the parallel lines of b y tables, he bowed to the company on either side ; and as he paseed,while some applauded. the dissentient. gave increased force to their hisses. Mr. Johnston maintaiaed a becoming and gentlemanly rompo,are, and continued to re:uro his courtesies. When he had nearly reached the end of the table, Mr. Fitzgerald, a Member of the Corporation of Butchers, appeared to give fresh vigour to his hisses, and in such earnestness as could not but attract Mr. Johnston's attention, who noticed it with inatked salutation, and having formally bowed, he Pro. deeded I* his intended course, and left the room. The well-bred part of the company did Dot intermit in their plaudits while Mr. Johnston was in the room : those who appeared not to be under the restrain's of ceremony persevered in a contrary behaviour.— A Gentleman, who had formed a p ar t of Mr. Johnston's spite, expressed • himself with much indignation at the discourteous .condact then practised, and his observations burial( been addressed to Mr. Fitzgerald, who bad been father conspicuous in expressing his dissent to the compliment which bad been intended from the Chair, ' some remarks were interchanged -r when, to the surprise of every person, and probably to that of the Common Councilman !daml f, the person alluded to, struck him a blow on the face and left the room. Mr. Fitzgerald during the whole of this circumstance,. remained In his seat—and, as *obit as what had occurred had been generally known, a very strong sensation was manifested. When the agitation produced by this circumstance had somewhat abated, Mr. Sheriff Lamprey proposed the health of the sew Lord Mayor. It was scarcely annoonced when a storm of hisses burst forth from all parts. Mr. Flemming could with difficulty obtain an opportunity of expressing his sentiments. In the sequel, " The Glorious Memory " was drank with shouts of applause • and " The Health of the Right Hon. R. Peel" was given with 3 dines 9, aad followed by Croppice lie down! On Thursday, Mr. Fitzgerald applied to the Sitting Magistrate, at College-street Police Office, ansi. stated the Assault he had received ; and Mr. Mathews (the gentleman who made the assault) was written to and desired to erten I the next day, when Mr. Matlsews attended and was required to give bail.
