THE INSURGENTS IN POSSESSION OF CADIZ-- MADRID IN A STATE OF INSURRECTION.—THE KING OF SPAIN DRIVEN FROM HIS CAPITAL. The Paris Papers of Wednesday and Thursday last contain intelligence respecting the state of Spain of the moat serious importance, representing the insurrection of the troops as becoming every day more formidable, and threatening the Royal authority with the most alarming conaripietice.. Cadiz seem• undoubtedly to have fallen into the power of the constitutional troops, where they were. received by the people of all classes with the utmost enthusiasm, and shouts of " Lice the Cortes !" " Down wills Ferdinand I" This intelligence reached Paris in a letter from Bayonne. written by a correspondent of the Ga• tette de France, on the authority of a communi cation from Madrid, wed was subsequently eon firmed by the arrival of a letter from Cadiz, of the I Ith of January. addressed to a Spaniard in Paris. The rate of Cad.: was decided by the defection of the regiment of Soria., and of three squadrons of cavalry, two of which were Royal carbineers. The conslitatioa of the Corte' was immediately proclaimed at Cadiz. and the oath to defend it was administered at the Town-holl to all puller, mili tary and civil. The Commerce of the town gave a grand banquet to the civil and mtlitaty authorities to Velebrate the triumph of the Constitution, and tables were prepared in the public streets, where the traops,froieraised (as the expression is) with the Populace. It is added in the same letters, that the National Army" amounts to twenty-foot thottaiiid men. The intelligence. however. which follows is ea still deeper interie,.: / glihough in truth it might be regarded as the necessary consequence of the event we have just mentioned. Letters from Madrid of the 1.311) and 14th of January, received in Paris at a late hour on Wednesday. by one of the first commercial houses in the city, state that " the ca pital of Spain Is in fell inirmetion ;" that the KING wished to shew himself to•the people. but was received with esecratious. Orders were then given to the Walloon Guards to fire upon the multitude, but these troops, instead of obeying the orders, joined the people, or as the letter has it. " passed to the side of the rebels." The KIND'S Body Guards. more faithful, HAVE BEEN MASSACRED. The QUEEN. in the hope of appeasing the In surgents, appeared be fore them. but it had no effect, sod the people cried oat that the KING should gait Madrid. It is then added, that the Court purposed immediately to retire to PAM. peluna. Letters addressed to the Prefects of Pau and of Auch communicate the same details. " We should not conceive ourselves justified," says the Journal des !)'bats, " in refusing to pub lish these facts announced in a manlier so positive. But we still Batter ourselves that to-morrow's post • will bring some changes, some modications in the accounts of events which threaten Spain with the greatest calamities, and which may even compro mise the tranquillity that Europe now enjoys'' , We have translated the shove passage for the purpose of aliening, that the second of these ins. portant transactions is given by an unwilling wit ness, or at' least by one who would gladly point out • any exceptiona that occurred to him, by which any doubts fright be thrown upon the anthenticity or the iiitelligence. We must confess that we hold very different opinions, and that nothing would give us more sincere pleasure. so far as the interests of Spain are concerned, than to find the statements true to their fullest extent. We think it a most fortunate circumstance for humanity that the revolution has been commenced by the soldiery. concurring, as the troops do. with the sentiments, entertsiued by the most ealightened of the people of Spain, as it will in a great degree prevent yin. lent ebullitions of popular frenzy and the disputes:, of many conflicting parties. and thereby save the courstry from much of the horrors which too coin wooly attend ow revolutions. But we are proceed ing too rapidly in our anticipations. We must not speak of a revolution until we receive confirmatioo• . of the statements now brought by the Paris Papers: PARIS. JANUARY ?7. 7 M.

Ou Saturday the private view of the exhibition of the works of British Artists of the British In. stitution, took place, preparatory to the intended public exhibition this day, which is of coarse now suspended in consequence of the lomented death of his MA/KETT, who was patron of this establishment. The gallery hos undergone considerable impasses as since the last exhibition—it is entirely wpm I moiled, a greeter body of light is admitted, and' distributed in so judicious . manner es to give the best effect to the pictures. The exhibition consists of 316 pirtenrs. sod but seven works in sculpture. The former comities some admirable specimens of the powers of our most distinguished Artists, as well as some very promising examples of the growing taste and skill of many students, who owe no small share of their proficiency to the fostering potrenege of this valu able Institution. and the excellent arrangements which the Directors have provided to promote their studies and encourage their efforts. The venerable President of the Royal AcadlitilOyi hes sent five pictures to this exhibttiou—amstele them is the noble sketch of the White Horse • dad his Legiwes, who overthrew the old Beast and/aloe Prophet. The design of this sketch is considered superior to the altered one in the great pictuse at Mr. Wavr's gallery. His other pictures ere lilijah raising the Widow's Son—the figure of Elijah is noble and grand; The Stolen Kiss (Goa GOAltillee Pastor lido). Elisha raising the Shat- Palliate's Son, an 4 Moses wed Aaron before Pharaoh. Mr. WILKIE, R.A. has three stoves in the 'Gallery—the finest is A Highland Whiskey-still, at • Lockeilpheisd.
