FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. AFT= the Conatitationnel.l ?Axis, Imre 4.—There has been a stagnation at the Exchange for some days ; to-day there was a marked fall. rrhis is attributed to the un .eertainty which ,prevails still in ourJoreign rola- Cons, 40 ,the approaching convocation of the Chambers, -whose intention is mot yet well known, and on the majority of which all sorts 'of conjectures are 'formed : but that which ex cites, -perhaps, .With most- reason, the -alarms of capitalists and speculators, is the increase ,uf the , Wittlike rage which bursts 'forth "in many ,Ministerial Journals which are sent gratis into the departments ; bitt it is especially ,owing to the announcement that has been made by PEtol/S,H 'math evidently receives official communications that the Army of the -Faith is on the point of being re-organised.; that the Re gency, off Spain, which is in France, is to be re v:ignited 'by,the .Continental Powers; and that M. Ouvsard, at the very moment when he is pro ,secuted before the tribunals by the Ambassador of the, King of-Spain, is about to send , 10 millions . of ,fraucs, and 80,000 muskets to the fugitive soldiers who have revolted against their country, and who have been distirtned- on their arrival in France. It is impossible, indeed, that the public credit should not suffer from suchastate of things. M. the Duke de Fitz-James has been mention ,ed as Ambassador to London, instead of M. the Viscount de . Chateaubriantl ; it hr.s been also said to-day that this embassy is..descined to M. , the Prince of Polignac. Silvestre de Sacy, known by the purity of his religious and monarchical principles, has re signed the place of Councillor to the University ; he is going to be succeeded by . M. L'Abbe *al de Cousserques, brother of the.lleputy of that name. We see to-day-the Aurora of:fhe inciai puri fications, promised for two months by the'fanati cal journals, shining forth. We have made some observations on the Prefects who are displaced, and on the persons who succeed them, which will give a just idea of the Ministerial policy, and which will prove that if it is modified as to its j external relations, it has only acquired a new in- ' tensity in its internataffairs. For example, we -remark, that most of the Prefects of the Departments where there have been, within a few years, Elections of Deputies who do not sit on the right, have been recalled or obliged to change their residence. Thus, M. Sequier, who bad scarcely left Nancy for Dijon,. where MM. Chattveli , l, Ilernoax and Camartin were electedlast year, has been removed to the Department de POrne, Sand M. the Marptwss d'Arbaud Jouques, Prefect of the guard in lFil5, goes into the Cote d'Or.--The,flaron de-Tallef rand, Prefect for two years in l'Aisne, till they elected General Foy and his honourable col leagues, was sent into the small Prefecture of i'Allier. This department having elected M. , de Tracy, who is a Colonel of the old army, and j son of , tt Peer of France, but who was not al ministerial Candidate, M. de Talleyrand is re called. M. the Marquess de la Morilie, Prefect of the department. de l'Orne, which bus •only . given Deputies from the extreme right, is sent in his place. Psi. Pepin de Belle, he who was Prefect of Is. • Sarthe when M. Benjamin Constant was elected, there, and who had afterwards been removed to the Prefecture of the Charente inferieure, is dis mi'ssed, and succeeded by M. de Nugens, the Prefect of the Sarthe, under whose administsation • M. Benjamin Constant, has not been re-elected. Besides, at Rochelle M. Andry de Puyrazeau, who sits on the left sick, had been elected almost -unanimously. • The Baron deXhaulieu, Prefect ofsFinisterre,' where out of four Deputies of the left who went out, only M. Keratry has been re-elected, has' been sent into the department of the Loire ; and M. Tessin de Nonville, Prefect of the Loire,' where only Ministerial Deputies ;have beere elected, has been sent to the Prefecture of the . - 410re-et-Loire. Messrs. the Baron Montureux,. Andre, d'Arbelles, de Guer, and de Villeneuve- Villeneuve, are old Prefects, who had a great reputation in 1815, and who had not been till . the present time reealled.Ao the Administration. The present Prefect , of Ardeche is M. Nettie, Maitre des Requetes, but son-in-law of a De ..,puty of the left side, and his „place is not tilled up. The Prefect of Creuse is M. Gamier, Ylasistrate who is said to be very moderate and very well infacined ; but-list year the Arrondis ,sement of Aubissou -nominated' a Deputy who takes his seat on theleft centre. The Prefect, of The Charente is brother of the late General Moreau but last year M. Poegeard. du Lembert, whe sits on the left centre, was MO , ' minuted at Gonfalons. As for the Marquess de 'Forests, who goes t tom t h e , p yronee s t o FillWerra, this favour call.. not ,have the elections ?for its object. There is no necessity - to point out tile motives. will 11QW 1)0 Seem how much thovo -persons were deceived who believed •that'll cluinge of system would take place, because there was a , •eitange in the Ministry. Every Prefect malt • lienceforwardlear for his place, if a single De. puty is appointed itt his Plefecturo who is not agreeable to the Ministers. "I ha efforts which will be employed to retain their places may he . easily imagined, It is not, however, surprising that an Administrator should he dismissed for txty u; a ll owe d a Deputy lo be noininated who . t yit,ts MI the left side or left centre, for the first Princes of the Blood : ius been insulted to-day Ity. a lota nal, because hit raceived at 11l house. the ..Deputie.; of the Opposition. • , [Front the (.7ogrier Frara;.'!is..l PAILI3, JAX. ti,-ytheisnerce .14 tip, nate% the .frienti,of pendeme and liberty to be h)pked on with a favourable eyo by the party which at present domineers ut France. This party therefore finds no ditfictLity in sacrificing every commercial ip terest to the mud hopes which it founds on having a war with iipsin. nut of all the brimches of commerce there has been. none less protected than th , e ootranortfe of books. The recall pf patents, and the si:utting up oft semc.: shops have begun to nisi - milate the builne.ts of a booiMler to that of szt employment re . vocable at will, ILO h4ve tb as deprived it of that independence . 1 / 4 .bititktite law,ought to guarantee to every. trade. The judg. merits since given against several booksellers, and the processes at present carrying on against several of them appear to im pose new trammels, and subject to new prejudices this impor tant -branch of, trade. The prescription implored for re-hn pressions of.old books is no longer recognized by the Tribunals, and the manner in which some prOersses have been conducted, adds still more to the uncertainty, and the embarra,senznt of the booksellers' situation. It is bad policy to check the booksellers' trade, and the pro pagation of the ideas that-theY.desire to - promulgate by printing certain works. If all the booksellers' shops were to be shut up, these ideas would not be less popular, nor less gene• rally spread, the only result would be that France would be de prived of one means Of prosperity, and one source of wealth. Far from seeking to paralyze this branch of commerce, it is necessary to encourage it. Louis XIV. was of this opinion, and though M. Delavaux appears to think differently, the au thority of Louis XIV. apyeered of more weight than his. ,The funds fell againlesterday, which can only be attribut able to a state stuneertainty and anxiety relative to Spain. A •report was • spread that a courier had arrived from Madrid charged avith important dispatches, and in fact, besides the or dinary courier, an extraordinary courier arrived yesterday, who left Madrid on the 29th, but the news he brought can have no influence whatever on the public funds. It-was summarily as follows the difficulties which existed between the Coun cil of State and the Ministry relative to the Treaty of Alliance with Portugal, were not yet got over; it is however believed that they soon will be. The Fiscal (Paredes) has at length ' published his manifesto relative to the pnicess of the conspira tors of July 7. •it is supposed that it was drawn up by D. Ro mero Alpuente. Much is spoken about an explanation which has taken place between Sir W. A'Court, the English Plenipotentiary, and one of the Ministers, on . the subject of the British squadron. which is to cruise at the Antilles. 'Phis explanation, though begun with much animation, terminated very amicably. There is also some mention of the new loan, .and the arrival of M. linbbard had excited hopes of its being Soon concluded on advantageous conditions. • 'All those, however, Who place their chance of fortune or of ruin on the answer to the communication made to Spain by the different Powers may yet wait some days. The couriers who carried these, communications could not arrive at Madrid be fore January Ist, and the Cortes at present occupied with dis eussing.theeeasures they ought to take, renders it impossible that their Resolutions should be known till the I•'th or 15th of, this month. The Ilioniteur publishes the following official intelligence " By an Ordinance of , January 2, the Viscount Duboutbage, Prefect of the Department of Drome, has been dismissed from his office, and appointed Councillor of State for Extraordinary Service.

The accounts from Madrid, .though not of a later date than the intelligence we gave yester day, contains some facts, or rather rumours, not mentioned in the papers we received. ft is slat- - ed, among other litings, that the Council of State opposes the , ratilication of the treaty with Por-, togal. The indicadoris quoted for this report, which certainly is not the best authority. A private letter, dated the ,9th, says— " A few days ago, San , Alive) had a warm altercation with The English Ambassador on the subject of some captures of Spanish , merchantmen by. Lnglbsh cruisers. The last oote of our Minister, it is said, was conceived in terms not very deco rous. The English Minister did not think proper to reply in writing. He has had a conference with San Miguel, in which it appears every thing was aible2bly settled." in a report matte by the Committee of Public Credit on the lean lately decreed by the Cortes, itis proposed, as one of the Means tending to fa cilitate that 'financial operation, that foreigners who -settle in Spain, and purchase oational pro perty, shall be exempt from taxes of every kind for the spare of four years. letter from Bayonne cOntains the following intelligence:— " It appears now that fieneral Torrijos was folly acquainted the movements of Charlpi O'Donnell, and that he had purposely Allowed him to reach the valley of Borrondoa, three leagues from Vittoria. On the 2t,th, awn o'clock in the morn. lug, Torrijos departed from Painpriunn at' the li: - !ad of five, thousand meta, in search of the insuagents, andpasSing through Amiga, the valley of Sills°, arrived at ,Zaquil. Finally, on the afternoon of Friday, accotilint to the deelaratien of a per- Kon who arrived in all baste from Vittoria, the General overtook die army of O'Donnell. The engagement lasted only a few minutes, as the insurgents, who could not sustain the attack, •Iromedinsely dispersed. '1 hey lost from. three to four ,hundred men, and upwards of a hundred mules laden with property of -iiiery description. We expect every instant to receive more circumstantial details." Rxtraet of a Letter from Perpignan, dated lice. 28. ) On the 27th the Militia of Junguera arrested at Catulloups sixteen Men belonging td the. ,Army of the Faith, who had en. t?red Spain by the way of Al errs ;- they were unarmed.' They. alleget,tthat they had come to profit by the amnesty,• but as they had deviated from the proper road, they were, taken to Figueraa, where their motives can be better appreciated.. The disbanded soldiers of the Faith, =toned in the plain near this town, have for some time past received 26 centimes per day. For this purpose Government has provided a fund of 24,000 francs, and the - Minister has announced that further ad vances will be made. This measure was highly neemary, for these soldiers bare been daily in the habit of bitterly reproach.. big their officers. No longer ago than yesterday several soldiers of the Faith met one of their .otlicer:i•in the street in 4041+411 with a monk. They abused him, and demanded " money or bread." This took dace in ixesence of all the neighbourhood. The soldiers proceeded to reproach the officer with having do.. ceived•them, and not keeping his word with them. They could not but know, they said, that the Army of the Faith, ill Urge. nized, badly armedi and destitute of every necessary , could not .maintain itself :Against the forces of Mina, but they relied upon the foreign assistance which their chiefs had promised them, but which never arrived ; they added, that in the moment of battle the greater part of their superior officers deserted,them,; And that the Regency took care to secure themselves from any of the dangers of war, although the two Ministers Gispert anti ()milk held high commands in the army. They declared, however, 'that they had never placed'itinth reliance upon the Minister of War of the Regency, on account of his conduct in the Regiment of Royal Walloons, in Murcia, which had placed him under the necessity of Biting up his commission... The offieer'endeavaured to defebd the Regency, and to throw uport s ,the great mass of the army the blame of their defeat and misfortunes, and consequently of their present miserable state. He spoke of the great sacrifices which the Marquis de Mats, florida had made—of the marked courage which he had dis plawd in all the difficult circumstances in which ,the Regency' had been placed. He was interrupted by a man who appeared to have held some subordinate rank in the army, in the follow. ing terms :—" Yes, Matafloridwresolved, a few days" previous to the march of Mina on Puyeerda, to return to that town.-- This resolution was adopted with the design of reanimating the courage of:our disheartened soldiers. He had no sooner entered the square of Fuycerda, than ppon a false alarm he took flight, contenting himself, in his retreat, with receiving the homage of some children, whacried Long live the King.' He took this shout oda complitrent.to himself; thr he replied, in a trembling My friends, in the hour of danger, you will always find the at your heath.'" The officer ended the altercation, by assuring the soldiers that they would-soon be satisfied. CITY, TUESDAY EVENING. Na private expresses from France were. re ported to have beat received this morning, and, as they could have only communicated Paris news of Sunday, the want of, them is of little importance. The English Funds continue uncommonly' heavy, and the ConsOls,which opened for the next settlement at tfo 4, scarcely supported UO at the closing of the market. It is now difficult to ascertain the operations in the Foreign Fund market, beeause:the dealers confine themselves to the room which the Proprietors of the Subscription Stock Ex change have been pleased to give them the use of for three months. . Spanish bends are reported to be again lower, and thedoohts entertained of their eventual safety are not in any degree allay ed. At onetime they were done at 54. • Columbian Bonds have fallen this morning from t 6 to 60A at one time, though they afterwards recovered a little. It is re , ported that a meeting of the holders of them has been called for Saturday next, but the object has not been pablicly com. municatel The closing ..market-price of Columbian Bonds was about 63j. . Russian, Prussian, and Neapolitan Bonds deo not at present offer any field, for speculation, and the bersaina done in them are for the investment of capital. Tbeirprices accordingly re- Main steady. It is difficult to .fix a .real value of. Mien or Peruvian Bonds, for the trunsactione in them are extremely limited. Trade in the. city of London continues generally dull. Cot tons are very inanimate, and were also dull'in Liverpool during last week. Sugar fur home consumption is steady in price, but the sales elected are limited,. '1 he. demand for foreign sugars continues, and the late advance is fully maintained.— Co if ces are more. in demand, but tine quality is scarce. Hemp is dull sale, and has declined to 301. per ton. Tallow is very heavy, and the price of yellow candle is 375. on the spot, .and 3fis. to be delivered in February next. limns and Brandies find very few buyers, and the best Geneva is only worth 2s. 2.(1. a gallon. British Spirits, coarse, and not to. be used unless when rectified into. Gin, are scarce, and worth fid. a gallon, duty .paid. This is a well managed trade, and: the West India 'lien:bents would do well if they couldso arrange their sales as not to interfere with each .other by any thing like public competition in the market ; for profits ere never so good when the .consumers can apply to more than one seller, and. real monopolies, such as those.of the East India Company, the supply of the people with beer and British spirits, the public Companies for T)ocks, &c., the furnishing London with coals from the Tyne Only, and numerous other confined trades, are far more profitable to those who enjoy them, than free trade would be, and their •Vestea.right possessors are perfectly justi. liable in sticking to them as long as they can, for no change is likely to improve their present station in society. Agriculturists have also their monopoly of the British market fur giain, bict somehow or ogler their, patent does nut please them, and they want to get relief out ,of the property of their neighbours— ( Morning Chronicle,) ' Flom the LONDON GAZETTE, Tan.

Spain and France are. afloat this morning. in the above Market, but nothing is positive on th&subject, and all remains conjecture, 'in 'Consequence of which the funds have - dropped a little, Consols opened at 804 i, and went down to SO at which price they are up to this hour, 'l'he Express from Paris this morn ing has brought Monday's prices at 871.85c - .which is rather lower than the last price from that capita I Nothing is known as yet in regard to the Colom bian L'Ofttl, the Market of which seems very heavy ; Colombian Bonds opened at 6t, and afterwards went down to 61-.1; Spanish Bon 's opened'this morning at 531' and fell to 5:3. FolittaN FirNos.—There was a. good deal doing in the above market this morning, and most persons were sellers of the Spanish and Colombian Stock, which appears very bear•y at present. • The public mind in Paris continues to be agi tated by the apprehension that hostilities will eventually commence between France and The continued dread of this evil is attributed by the Conslitutionnel to the furious language of some of the Ultra Journals. It is astonishing that that very party which , professes the ut most devotion to the principles of Monar chical Government in general, and to the !louse of Bourbon in particular, should per-. sist in madly endeavouring to plunge their country into a contest, the result of which might shake every throne in Europe, and for the second and last time hurl the 13auaaoNs from the seats of their power. Letters from Madrid Say, that the Spaniards openly declare, that, if, they.are attacked, they will not hesitate to enter France in . their turn, and to . erect: in it , the tricolour standard. is France, though ,at pre sent tranquil, so well affected to the Char ter and tp the reigning Family,, that there is no danger of a general combustion, if the torch be but applied to the elements of civil war within her,bOsotn,-that there is no reason to fear the consequences of popular excitement, if the most cherished associations .of a great portion of her people shill be appealed to_ in favour of the rights and the liberty of Spain, and in oppo sition to those who would constrain them to em.• ploy their arms against a neighbouring, and, as respects Prance, an unotfendiug state Bayonne Papers of the 31st ult. came to hand this morning ; the following are extracts " We have some, accounts of the motion of the two parties ht the frontier Provinces, by which we see that the endeavours of O'DomNet. to pass the Ebro have failed; •he seeks only to neary TOBIJOS by long marches. In a letter from Madrid it is stated that the Spanish Government has received a note from that of France,but that the pretensious which it contained had been re• jected, and that at an interview which the Miui. ster SAN MIGUEL had on the 20th ult. with M. LAGAnnt, the French Plenipotentiary, he plainly told him that Spain would never consent to let France interfere in its affairs, and that it little cared for preparations for war and its menaces that it would be much better openly to declare war than to preserve the same line of conduct as hitherto. From the accounts receivedlrom Saragossa on the 22d, it appears that its citizens are decidedly attached to the Constitutl System, and the successes of MINI have tit them with joy."
