Letters from Madrid dated the 28th ult. have reached us. They state that the Royal Embroiderer detaching himself for a moment from the luxuries of his honey-moan, has ordered the immediate prepa ration of another expedition for the shores of South America, Ic is to consist of 6000 men, and we heartily wish it may have the same success as the last, which rotted in its native port. We have received the Paris Papers of Monday and Tuesday last. Their contents are unimportant The King held a Levee on Sunday, at which his Mi nisters, the Ambassadors of Spain and Naples. Marshals Jourdan and Oudenut, Prince Talleyrand, the Duke of Richelieu, and several French Peers and Deputies were present. Tile Committee of the Chamber of Deputies appointed to prepare the Ad dress in answer to the Royal Speech met on Sunday and Monday, and were expected to finish their la bours on the latter evening. It appears that there is a great difference of opinion among the Mem bers, insomuch that it is expected tha• two drafts of an Address will be presented to the Secret Commit tee of the Chamber, the one expressive of the senti ments of the majority, by M. Ganifil ; the other of those of the minority by MM. Laine, Bourdea, Cirdoimel, &c.—Wednesday last was the day on which it aas Said the Ministers were to submit to the Deputies the project of a law for ameliorating the Elections. This proje..l originally consisted of 120 clauses which were subsequently reduced to 84. The intended alteration in the Election Law is considered a bold attempt of the Ministers It will be stnrigly opposed; and some persona are of opi nion that it will ilislokre them from their places, and produce such a change as will tie perfealy con formable to the feelings and the wishes of the peo ple.

Hobhouse to Newgute, by the authority Of the House of Com. mons. Sir Francis Burdett was in the Chair, sup ported by Mr Dwfilas Rinnaird, Mr. Bruce. and several of the leading Reformers in Westminster. A series of Resolutions was moved and adopted, und also an Address to Mr. Hot)house, embodying the spirit of the Resolutions. Mr. Hunt was unfa vourably received when he presented himself to the Meeting. The room was quite crowded. Thistle wood and Waddington were present, The work of retrenchment, it is said, is shoot to be Lathed into further effect in several of the offices under Government. According to report, however, it is principally to fall on the junior clerks. At the Victualling-office,. 12 or 15 individuals of this description have received notice that their services will be dispensed with at. the end of the present year, from which it may be inferred, that a great diminution in the public business has talon place. None of these unfortunate clerks are, it is reported, to have any permanent allowance f.r past services, although sonic of them are reported as having been 8 and 9 years in their situations.

Mr. Favell moved, That an account be laud before the Court by the Chamberlain, of the sum or talus of money issued by order of the Court of Aldermen, and the purposes to which that motley was applied." The mottuteatose, he said, immediately out of time conticuni e.ttion made by the Court of Aldermen, which was completely the language of defiance.

N. ‘Villianis seconded the obo ion. Two Aldermen who had lost their scats in Parliimiriti, had put their heads together to prosecute one of the suc cessful candidates, fur which purpose they had been guilty of the titealittess of putting, w conjunction with his name, that of Mot, a coupling like that of Lord Fitowilliam's name and Wordier's.

MR. HOIHOUbg.— The following are the circum stances attending the arrest of Mr. Hobhouse:— Mr. Hobhouse , with his friend Mr. Michael Brute, was at No. 1, New -street, Spring-gardens, about six o'clock on Monday evening, when a messenger of the House of Commons, acting as Deputy Srjeanr, at-Arms, made his appearance, and produced the Speaker's warrant as his authority for taking Mr. into custody. Mr. Hobhouse said he considered tho warrant to be illegal; and that he refused to obey the. warrant. The messenger replied, that he had brought a force with him to execute the warrant, and the men were in the house. Mr. Hobhouse desired him to carry back his refusal to the Speaker ;. but the messenger said, he could not quit bins. " Then (replied Mr. Hobhouse) you must use your force, for I will submit to nothing else." Two other messengers soon after made their appearance, when the first messenger laying his hand on Mr. H. said, " You are my prisoner." Mr. Hobhouse then replied, " I must submit to force, but I protest against this illegal seizure, and desire you to inform the Speaker thereof." Mr. Hobliouse was imme diately taken to Newgate by two of the messengers ha a hackney-coach," TO PHYSICLINS AND•PARENTS. In the superior aid of a Physician, confidence is not only reposed, but beneficial results anticipated., The following hint to medical Gentlemen—the extreme, dear-butight experience of fond l'urents, is offered ut a Caution without impeachment to any One More than one dose of a remedy should be or dered in a prescription, that a repetition may, when proper, be resorted to where the expected results are not produced in a given time; or, when that mode might be improper, or thought ineffectual, other means, or an alternative ought to be dir.2eted, parti. cularly when so dangerous a complaint as intiern motion, in the bowels or stoppage of the intestines. is re antely to be eespected ; bvt:All,e, the most in. jurieuis effects mey happen before the visit be repea• tad. 11'ithout these precautions, in the absence of the Physician, oonlialence is misplaced, anti hope in a superior HUH proves tidlacious. Added to this, where danger is apprehended. the Parents should be acquainted tei it the expected operation of tile medi cine administered, to judge whether- the intent is effected,.whion if set produred,.then they would be prepared to administer the other means before re*r red to. Had the foregoing been attended to, Ennui , , an utlectionate, placid, prutnising ehiitd for learning —the youngest of three sun, and three daughters, might have been saved from the fatal etlects of nit. obstruction, known only to the attending Physician,. which in a Km hours terminated her existence by inflammation in the Bowels; tor, the alternative when administered, produced the immediate-effect ;desired—but too late—she expired, at tho age of seven years, in the arms of a kind mother,..to the it -• expressible grief of her parents, sisters, brothers, and friends. Parents! can ye be too in luisitive into the expected operation of medicines? Nu ; for by possessed of the intended effects, ye may guard against theindisappoinuneut by edulinistering an alternative.
