We have received a copy of the proclam ation . . of BALLASTEROS, of the receip t of which i n Lon don . we were yesterday informed - by a Gentle man of the Stock-Exchange. The document, however, which We subjoin, is' dated so fir back as the eth of October, and is probably one of those proclamations which the French haVe declared to be spurious. At all events, its date renders it of verYietle imp ortance [EXTRACT OP A LETTER raostMADRID, DATED NOV. 1.1 When Gen. HAL LAS‘TEROS became convinced:that he had nothing to hope for from the favour of the JONG, but every thing to dread fvoin Lis vengeance, he hastened to. publish the following Proclamation, some copies of which, notwithstand the vigilante of the Police, have made their way into this Capital "SPANI'3II ROYALISTS!-When you perceived that the tyranny and Machiavalism of the Constitutianal Ministry. were hurrying the country to its ruin, you became convinced that the seine errors in 'the Government of the people, which existed during the six years of Constitutional interregniam; hid .re 41).Peared after the oath had been taken to the Constitution, and ,that the 'Ministry of 1821 and 1822 acted with all the deapothan an d aii4aCity of an absolute Government ; that the prosp ect held out by a strict observance of the Constitution had been frustrat ed; ,• that its most ben e fi ce nt regulations were left in oblivion ;' and 411 fines .that those who were. at the , head .of ~ t he nation were about to plunge it in misfortune and indigence, and. that the System they had adopted was hurrying the century with giant strides to its destruction.

He afterwards was connected with the Worcester Manufactory of China, which derived great itn provementln taste and beauty from his talents and judgment.. lie was a very intelligent, and honourable man, and his loss as a companion will be deeply felt by alarge circle-of' friends and acquaintance.

MURDER ok. Mr. WEAttc.—The capture of suspected persons still continue, ma last night the officers se. cured another, 'whose name, for obvious reasons, we forbear from stating. This morning, before the regular business of the Office at Bow-street was gone into, Nicholls and Upson produced the murderous weapon, the air gun,, to Sir B. Bi fluty, who desired it to be charged, which was done instantly, and it was found-fully to answer the object. The report made by it was not louder than the fall of a small nail on the floor, and when charged with shot- it rather 'decreased the report. Sir RICHARD strongly censured the making of such weapons, and expressed a hope that they would be put down. it is now un derstood that the murderers will be tried by special commission in Loddon.

The situation of Thar - tell; Hunt, ,and Probert, . . •Il• • in Hertfordjaii, cpptirwes undo he satire rigorous tu,recillance and restraint. Two yrisoners remain.in thp room of each, to act, not as attendants,..butotra guards ; and owing to some impro. babie notion thaut rescue was intended, additional watchmen have been provided within and without the walls of the prison. These precautions display the laudable desire of the Magistrates to se cure the guilty culprits ; although common experience shews, that no band (or rather banditti) coald fie Nailed for the escape 'of such prisoners; they appear to belong to a class which is not only excluded from common sympathy by the honest in ' dignation of mankind, but which has in itself no coherent bond of action. The individuals of this class have daring impulsei it is true; bat .in principle, or - rather motive, they are cowardly ;—assassination and suicide are their only exploits. To provide against the possible efforts of such a set, was only a reasonable precaution under existing circumstances. The Magistates take all possible means to prevent the publics. tion of the evidence already given, as well as to enforce the gaol.regulations. for keeping these prisoners in a state of abso. lute exclusion from each other, and their associates out of doors. The persons who have access to them for personal ar nmgements arc rigidly interdicted _ ;from any topic of general, conversation. .The, provisions for the table are supplied with the utmost „circuTspection, and even a common dumpling has been cutppen;.4ttie turnkey, to.obviate the possibility of any clandestine .communication in thealelivery of food. . Thurtell evinces . AO desire to be communicative with any body. ..When apoyen to respecting the murder, he continttes ,irritable; !anti...wisbin the last day or two rather coarse in his abruptness, wishing not to be talked to "about such eV:" He regularly pays, for Ilia- own fare,and Probert's; but cannot bear to hear Hunt'a name, mentioned without imprecations. He hopes that that " villain will starve upon the gaol allow. ance,"—a diet that, in allusion to his profligate habits, he thinks Hunt, must ; find intolerable. Thurtell appears to have in cash, about seven pounds remaining in his pocket. Probert has not a shilling, and Thurtell expresses his willingness to pay for him as long as he has sixpence in his own pocket. Hunt has about two sovereigns remaining of the money, which be , says he received for." singing p.rofessionally" at Probert's cot. tage on the night of the murder. Thurtell wrote several days ago requesting the aid of a particular solicitor, but.as yet there has been no official communication to the Magistrates on the 'Pan of tiny legal adviser; Probert,it is said, yesterday applied to Mr. IVilkinson,. the Under.sheriff for .the county of .Hert . ford, who had an interview with him in the gaol, for his pit). fessional The personal demeanour of the prisoners Thurtell and Prober t continues the same.. : .the former being coarse and insensible, dis. gusting even to those who are In attendance upon him, by his allusions to his general dissolute propensities , while the latter desponds in a state of severe nervous debility. Hunt's manne r., has at length become changed. Instead of being a fellow re. , yelling in the hope of inipunity, upon the faith of his confession to the Magigtrates, he begins within the last day or two to be seriously apprehensive, .from the apparent oblivion of the Ma. gistrates of either himself or his confession since he gave it, that he has nut sufficiently influenced them by his first offer, to be insensible to the necessity of including him in the capital charge of murder; which is soon to be tried. -Thurtell complains, but with an air of impudent indifference, of being shut out from &next ernal communication ; not knowing that since his imprisOn ment his family or friends haVe sought no correspondence with hint. Ile complains loudly . that a glanc e a t a newspaper is tie. flied him : no doubt his curiosity is excited to hear the further particulars which have been developed against hint. No solicitor - is yet appointed either for the prosecutor or the defence. FROM BOW-STREET. During the last two or three days, several anonymous tern • and other conimunications have been sent to the Ma. gistrates:. at Bow-Street, pointing out different individuals As having been concerned in the murder of Mr. Wean!, or. as knowing something of that dreadful deed, The Magistrates, although unable to give implicit credit to such vague in formation, have nevertheless telt it their duty to cause some of the individuals thus brought under their notice, ,to whom a certain degree of suspicion attached, to be taken .iato cus. tody, and-brought to the office, where they underwent a pri. vete examioation. We believe we are perfectly warranted in stating that nothing of importance was elicited by the inquiry. Bishop, the officer, is still keeping an active look out for Lemon, but that individual has hitherto contrived to evade his pursuit. There is reason to believe that the shop is discovered, at which Hunt bought the.spatle, which was carried to Probcrt's cottage for the purpose it is supposed, of digging hole in which thehody of *eare was to be placed. Mr. Slack, an ironmonger in Long.acre, remembered, that on the same day, about the period at which t h e mu rd er was committed, a man, who in every respect answers the description which Is given of Hunt, tame into his shop and asked for a shovel. Mr. Slack took one from a 'number which were standing in the shop, and showedit to the man, who took it in his hand, said it would do, and paid the money d em a n d ed for it, namely three shillings. The spade which was found at Probert's cottage has been described to Mr. Slack, who states 'that he has no doubt that it is the same which he sold' to. the man whom he supposes to be Hunt. The spade is to be brought from Watford, in order that Mr. Slack may identify it. • FROM MA R LBOROUGH•STR EET. A messenger under the commission of' bankruptcy lately issued against Thome* Thurtell, of the Cock in the aytharket, applied yesterday, in consequence of what appeared in the papers of that morning, to Mr. Dyer, the sitting Magistrate, to request he would rescind an order which had been given by the magistrates of this offic e , t o p revent , te r the present, the removal by any person of a certain quantity of furniture, sup posed 'to have been deposited by John ;Mittel! and Joseph Hunt at the house of No. 4, cumberlandotnet, r New-road, and to enabl e him, the messenger, tit takeposession of the said property, belonging, as he has 710 doubt it doen, to the bankrupt L'homas Thurtell, and removed for the purpose of,concealment from the Cock, in the Haymarket. Air. DYER asked hirre---suPposing the order to be taken off; how could htsideetify, or prove it to belong to Thos. Thurtell ? 'The Messenger maul, that if thy, .ittamatratrs would enly, remove their prohibition agaiwt touching the property, he would take upon him to seize it, and would be able to prove by the carrier wife removed it, that it belonged to the bank rupt. He had already seized property which lie had traced from the Cock to Kensington Oravel-pita, and to the house. in Man chester-buildings. Mr. DYER said that he should certainly not interfere in the transaction ; the business was in the hands of another Magi watt (Alr. Conant,) who would be present this day, and to' . wh om h e advised him to renew his application. Mr. Daffbrin, the carrier, of Old Compton-street, Soho, was present, and was served by the messenger with an order to at_. tend the Commissioners this day. Itappears that Mr. Daffinin, who is a very respectable man, feels much regret at having had a " job" at all on the occasion. Ile was not brought to this office on Saturday night on any warrant, but attended by the desire of the Magistrate, and fairly and openly told all he knew about the removal of the goods from Proberes cottage, which were seized by this very messenger at Mr. Dafferin's house. Bow-STREET—(/7dg Morning.)-- A poor coun. tryman entered the office in a breathless state, to give informs . don of a fraud that had been practised on him just befine. lie stated that he had only that morning arrived froM Bucking hamshire, and in passing down Holborn he was accosted by a man dressed as a sailor, who complained of having been robbed of all his money the preciding night by some lead women, and that all he possessed then was his watch, *hi& he produced, saying he'must be under the.ueressityof disposing of it, which he would do for 3/. - At this moment a Jim, with _a bag under Ins arm, tapped . the sailor on the shoulder, °flitting txtoney, for it. The sailor 'appeared indignant at the titter of the Jew, and said he would sooner let the countryman" have it for a pound less. Subsequently me sailor succeeded in cheating him out of his watch, worth 31., and a sovereign, for the one he had, which was intrinsiely worth no more than 15s. The poor countryman was told to leave his address, and the descriptton of the fellows, who are well known, and will doubtless be soon in custody. EX-PARTE 'STATEMENTS.

It is said- the Learned, J Like declared it a misdemeanour to publish reports of.any . eitardinatioti's before Magistrates previous to the trial of the defendants; who must be serious lvinjured by ,such publiiations, and cannot eirpect have justice done them, such ex-liarto statements excite prejudice, and 'are detrimental , to, the true meaning of the Constitution or this country. They are calculated to prevent the due administration of justice,' inasmuch as they confuse the Jury and the Judge, and have fre quently been forbidden and condemned by the highest authorities. Indeed,'reports oftransacitions and statements of private examinations have lat. terly been sent forth in such a way, with . the editor's comments upon them, that they are cal culated.tOtally to deprive the accused of an"bit prejudiced Jury; and, as the Court had'iren. tioned the very gross impropriety, of such pub lications,' he hoped their cebSure'weeld have the desired effect,and in future in some degree check this most hnalculabla evil, , withotit its. being at length necessary to resort to :harsher mea sures. The. Learned Judge again cautioned.th e Jury on the, subject, and again alluded,gene rally to the late horrible transaction,, and directed them to retire.
