REVOLUTION IN SPAIN! THE CONSTITUTION OF THE conms ADOPTED BY THE KING! Paris Papers of Wednesday and Thursday last have arrived at our office. Those of Thursday contain, in an official form, the important and gratifying intelligence that the King or SPAIN, yielding to the force of public opinion, leis com manded his Council to issue the vecessary orders fir the immediate convocation of the Cortes, moil that the general oldies of the nation being expli citly declared, be has resolved to adopt the consti tution promulgated by the General and Extraor dinary Cortes, in the year 18U. The decree for the convocution of the Cortes was issued on the evening of the Gill instant, but the agitation of the i,,loiliitanta rot being sufficieigly tr:oliiillized by this nteusure,lt Kira lis•leued on the next d.iy to aliprize his people officially of his deterniination o accept of the constitution. On this great and 1,111 evrut we sincerely congratulate the friends of freedom its every country, but to the high•spi r tied Roll gallant natio' , which has achieved so proud o triumph is due the highest applause. By one great end vigorous effort Sp.iin has flung off the L.:nitro of centeries, and now proceeds with firm step to the attai u+ueut of her glorious destiny. Wilii Eberly come eonthletice and energy, sod the neces sary revisit of the union ore happiness sod prosperity. it seems that the 41 Council, and also the Conti cil of State,rertoniutinted to the Kitic the necessity of immediately convoking the Cortes; but from an expression n , td in tier Ca:eite de France, wimely, that the ki trio's uegniescence in this advice slid not s , ::itfficien , ly tranquillize the public mind," at would Peen] that 3Jadrid had felt the infectious ivtluence of the spirit of independence, and, by jo:uilig iti the insurrect;on, hush coinpelltd the KING to form a nasty decision. Upon this point the next arrival, will no doubt afford us some ittformation. Seldom has a revolutiou been effected in' any coolly under circumstances so feVOUfSbie as are presented lay that winch lots now been accAiplislied in tipsier., Great prai , e is due to the firaturss - . . ► sod aleadistiso to he troops wl►o engaged in this illestrieus act, nor should the prudence of the KING, in so readily yielding to the course of eVents and the evideut wishes of the people, be deprived of its fair proportiou of applause. If his MA JESTY has given his sanction to the Coistitu• tion with► good faits► and sincerity, the revolution is free from all dangers. The facility and quick ness of the enterprise must to attributed altogether to the circumstance of the revolution having com menced with the troops rather than with the pen: ple, and the KING having so readily yielded to the concurrent opinions of the military sod the people, no occasion is likely to arise for isillaming angry passions or disturbing the te e nier of the country. It is satisfactory to add another proof to those which history already furnishes, that the military power does not always oppose itself to the general arulimeuts of the nation, whets those sentiments breat he a love of freedom. 'rim troops or JAMES 11. refilled to turn their arms against their countrymen in ►uppott of a despot ; French soldiers helped to level the Biuitile; and now we find the standard of liberty borne triumphantly in Spain by the troops who had been levied fur the purposes of oppression. A standing army may prove a burden and an op• pression to a people; but no Prince cau in future repose upon a standitig army with confidence as a weapon of arbitrary power.
