PETERSRURGII, FEBRUARY 42. Lieutenant Lasarew, of the Imperial Navy, who went last year on an expedition to the Frozen Oceaii, has published an account of it. The inten tion was to proceed to the IVaggatz Straits, and sail round Nova Zemble. After struggling with numerous hardships from the immense accuniula lion of ice, they reached the entrance of the Strait, hut could not go into it, and were obliged to return without accomplishing their purpose.

On the Ist of March there was a furious storm, which did some damage; a Danish, a Swedish, and an English ship, were totally lost in the bay of Hahn. :since the Ist, the frost has been severe, generally from six to eight degrees, and the Sound is entirely frozen over, for the second time this winter; above V. 4) vettels which have arrived here are frozen up in the Ittitithiotiitl a passage is cutting through the ice to bring them into the harbour.

According to our accounts from the south of France, we must expect that many Protestant fami lies of that country will seek an asylum in Switzer land, because they seem to be apprehensive of u renewal of the popular excesses against them. In t 415 Switzerland afforded ■n asylum to several Firi.ch Protestants, many of whom settled there. For this last quarter of a year trade is quite dead : there is as little doing as in the most con vulsed times of the French Revolution. WARSAW, FEBRUARY 22.

A •ast quantity of snow has fallen within these few days in the north and north-west parts of the kingdom, and has been drifted, by the long conti nuance of the storm, to the height of six or right teat, and in some places so ■s partly to stop and partly obstruct the communications on the roads of Z. 14 and Ilaluburghs BERLIN MARCH 7.

PARIS, MARCH le. THE INSURRECTION IN SPAIN. The Madrid Gazette of the it of March has sr. rived, but it contains nothing interesting. Accounts received by private letters of the same date confirm what was previously stated respecting the insurrection in Gitllicia. It is also added that t.-:as were entertained of its having broken out also at Saint Jago de Compostella. Since the event of the 40th at Corinne, the tranquillity of that town has not liven interrupted. Tie King of Spain has formed • permanent Junta of State, in which are included tl►e Infant Don Carlos, the Duke de l'lnfantado, and the uspistant Bishop of Madrid. It is believed in that capital t h at his Majesty itileorls to realise the pro mise contained in the decree of Vslerivy of the mouth of Amy, 1814, which was, to give a coiwti tution to the Spanish nation. This forms a prin cipal topic of conversation in Madrid. The correspondence from Bayonne throws some doubt upon•what was said , two or three days since, relative to the town of San-Andero. Some symp toms of agitation have, it is said, manifested them selves at Valladolid, but they led to nothing. We are assured that in all the towns occupied by tl►e iosurgeots, they proclaim an exemption from taxes, the introduction of provisions free of duty, and the importation of all articles of foreign industry, at a duly of 14 per cent. Tobacco may be imported it'll) Spain on paying a real per posasd. The letters from Bayonne speak but little of ►Mina. We do not believe that the progress made Ly this Chief in Navarre is so great as some of our liberal Jetirmsts would teat as to imagine,(Ga:ette de Fresseee.) The arrival of the Madrid tiatette of the 2d with out any obstruction, would prove that Miami* bands are not masters of the great road from Madrid to Bayonne. A private letter informs nt, that on the .25th of February the column under the command of Mow, at. the moment of its entering the town of limitls. was completely defeated by Colonel Flare, who commanded it division of O'Dminrl's army.—(Jourrrul des DeLeon.) According to letters of the 23,1 and 26th, ►ecebs ed from Malaga, it is certain that Lieutenant. C olonel Rafael Itiego, on entering the town in the evessing of the 19th, had with him only 2.000 in fantry and 60 horsemen ; that he found the popsy lat indifferent to his proclamations, and that he was obliged to march off on the night of the 19th, after a very smart action in the streets. in which °limited's troops displayed snitch coolness and courage against the insurgents. O'Donntl march ed front Malaga on the 4-211, in the direction of Atetequiera, in pursuit of Riego. Letters lino Cadit of the 25th say nothing of the engagement, nor of the attack on the Corta- Jura. General Freyre revietted the garrison, and retired to Isis head-quarters at Saida Maria. Fle has granted to the families of persons arrested for purposeo of general safety, that the arrested should be transferred to Santa Maria, and not to Ceuta. Letters from Corunna of the 26111, and from Ma drid of the Sid March, announce that the troops in Gallicia have woclaimed the Constitution of the Cortes in two-thirds of the province. The Insur rectional Junta has addressed a proclamation to the people and to the militia. The latter had not yet declared themselves. At Ferrol there hive 10-en some vet) , great popular commotions.—(Le Muni , tear.) A - Dictatorial Jutita has been organized at Ma. drtd by order of the King, under the Presidency of the Prince Don Carina. The official reports of General Don Joseph O'Donuel, relative to the actions of Marbella and Malaga, on the 17tli and 20th of February, have arrived in Paris, and will be published to-morrow. According to a letter from Valladolid, General Freyre has sent in his resignation, and the rum. mend of his army ',which was refused by two Gene ral Officers) has been accepted by General Dun Carlos D'Espans.—(Journal de Paris.)_ MADRID, MARCH t.—The Extraordinary 'Commit cos tinues sitting—the Kiog presides at it. The news from Ga licia has tore the veil from before our eyes. The immense population of this province is in estate of insurrection from one end to the other. The Constitution of 1812 has bees proclaimed every where. M. Apr (a retired naval officer), and one of the principal Members of the Codes, was a state prisoner at Cotonou. lie has been placed at the head of the provisional Junta. The traitors who betrayed Punlier, and among them the Serjeant who received the reward fur his uppreliensioo, have been the first victims of popular feeling. A few other places iu this province bare beeu the theatre or some excesses, but tranquillity uow prevails every where. General Pol (who was ordered to proceed against the insurgents at Commis) could master but a very few troops, and they subsequently refused to act. The town of St. Jago opened its gates to the insurgents in spite of all the efforts of the clergy. Catalonia, Arregou, Valencia, and Murcia, have nut yet taken part in the Insurrection, as we are sunned this morning at tAs Palace; but the rumours prevalent throughout the city gives no reason to believe that this is nut true. The revo lution is spreading throughout Spain. The appearasee of Mins would have produced a strong sensatiou Isere, If in these times we could be surprised at any thing. The Viee roy of Navarre has sew a cestrier to represent the desperate stale of his situation. The savories are iu a great state of agitation. We are assured that M. Apr, President of the Junta of Gallicia, has written to entreat the King to listen to the voice of the nation and to reign in a constitutional man ner. On this point the Council as divided in its opinions; but it is certain that one of the Members advised Isis Majesty to sign without delay the Act of the Constitution, and no doubt is euteriained that be mart at last submit to do an. Cadie, et the date of the last accounts, still held out ; hut its fidelity could slut support it lung. Our fourth of the ilibabitants, at least, are compelled to keep within doors. The number of those detained its prison is incredible. The insurgents see at tlie gates of the city. The Corm. dura is in their power; such is the substance of letters from that place of the 23d February. The fleet is ordered to sail off, should the city open its game. Freyre has hitherto done uuthing, nor will any other Ge neral. Seville is revised as close as Cadis. The priories are full. This reign of violence is, however, hastening to its downfall. The English sloop the bode, having on board seven men, was wrecked on the 3d of this month, on the coasts of Saint Valery-en-Caux ; crew saved. They write from Constantinople that the Grand Seignur lost his youngest son, the Sultan Achmet, on the 25th of January. The I,ew Grand Vizier does not please the people. The Jannisaries con tinue to commit great excesses. The Porte does not cease persecuting the Armenian Catholics. It will tolerate none but Armenians of the Greek Church. and ull the remonstrances of the foreign Ambas sadors on this subject are unavailing. THE BRITISH PRESS. LONDON. FRIDAY. MARCH 17. 1820. We have not been disappointed in our expects. lion that ►he l'aris Papers of Monday last would bring some interesting particulars respecting the internal condition of Spain. They have arrived, and from them we learn, that in Ga!licit the Con stitutionalists have organised a Junta, for securing to the several places under their authority the advantages of civil government. This measure, while it offers convincing evidence that their's is not the ill•concerted burst of sudden violence, trembling even at its own temerity, and reedy at the first appearance of danger to atone far its rails. ness by courting slavery, gives at the same time confidence to the friends of Spanish freedom, and consistency to their proceedings. To this measure too may it, we think, be attributed, that since the day on which the Constitution was first proclaimed at Carmine, the t►anquillity of that to has not been disturbed„ FERDINAND begins at length to perceive the extent of his danger, and laments this consequences of having deceived his people. He has fo►mrd, it is said. a dictatorial Junta in Madrid, at the head of which is his bro titer, Don dAlLos, and lien, we ere mitred, of at length to fulfil the promise he hail made to the people of Spain, at Valentiy, in 1814. and give them a constitution founded upon the prin ciples of popular representation. 'rhie promise was made by FERDINAND. at the moment when his pliant and faithful people found, as they then fondly imagined, the reward of all their sacrifices in the liberation of their KINO from a foreign prison. Min CARLOS is understood to be deeply impressed with the necessity of making conceesions to the Constitutionalists, and this appointment would induce a hope that the struggle in Spain may be speedily terminated by amicable arrange ments between the contending patties. A rumour prevailed in Madrid that Rtitoo's corps, at the moment of its entrance into Runde, on the 2Stli of February, was defeated by a de tachment from O'DONNEL'S army. It is now stated by the Royalists, that Rt goo's corps consist ed at Malaga of 2,000 infantry, and a troop of ca valry of Go men. A Hamburg!' Mail has arrived. with Papers to the 10th instant. An article dated Geneva, the 23cl of February, states, that according to accounts from the south of France. it was ex pected 'non,. Protestant families of that merit ry will seek an asylum in Switzerland, from an apprehen sin., of the renewal of the popular excesses from which they had so greatly suffered. Mr. LAMB'. friends its Westminster exerted themselves more warmly in his favour yesterday than on any former day since the commencement of the election, and in consequence he had on the day's poll • majority of votes over Sir FRANCIS BURDIVIT of 61, •iul over Mr. tiosnouse of 9t. Mr. LAMB polled 47 votes more yesterday than he did on the day preceding, while the votes given yes terday in favour of Sir F. ButtisEre were less by 110, and for Mr. HOISHOUSE less by 100 than they severally obtained on the former day. This circum stance holds out some encouragement to Mr. Lawn, but his friends, if they wish to see him successful, must redouble their efforts, for Mr. Elostiouse still has a fearful majority over his rival. We have also to notice with sincere pleasure, that with Mr. LAMB'S improving prospects, he has made considerable advances towards gaining the smiles and approbation of the people who assemble in front of the hustings. Th►e delusion that at the commencement of the election was industriously created respecting Mr. Lams begins to pass away, arid the multitude at length recognise him as one who has contended manfully, and in some instances successfully, in tl►e House of Commons, to stem the torrent of ministerial corruption, and to preserve the rights and liberties of the people. It was an ungenerous set fo repreeette him in placards and handbills as the friend of arbi trary imprisonment, when it was well known that he was one of the minority in the House of Commo►►s who voted against the dis graceful, because illegal committal of Mr. Hon- Boum. Whig principles, such as Mr. LAMB avows, have been uniformly popular in Westminster, sod we cannot think that Radicalism possesses so pow. erful • ch►arm es to monopolise the good opinions of the people of this city. We congratulate the pers. pie sincerely on being restored to their senses •ad to their good humour ; but s candidate on the hustings, whatever may be his sentiment', ought to be saved from coarse ribaldry ■nd indecent in. vectires. He appears before his countrymen un armed, and incapable in such a situation of fairly defending himself.
