After our Envoy Eztraordlnary to the Rogslan Cosset received the oath from the Spanish troops, who succeeded in throwing off the oppressive yoke of the IFrenck, he addressed them as follows:- 4 ' Spaniards, who this day take the oath of fine. lity to the Constitution, and the legitimate, SoveH reign of our country, I have chosen to. make 'this day ' the Sd of May, more solemn--a day which .

We are told, and the fact may be so, that oar Paper was burnt in a reading.room (we presume by as enraged Ministerialist), because we would not allow the Emperor FRANCIS to join the Allies.
