[From The .Horning .ehrouidc.] MADRID, JULY 6.—The Cortes met this day at ten 'o'clock, and after some preliminary husi ness, proceeded to elect a President, Vice Presi dent, and Secretaries ; the choice has fallen On Don Jose Espiga, Arclibjshop Elect of Se ville; the hero of La Isla, Quiroga ;' and Messrs. Cepero, Lopez, A. Lopez, and Clemehcin, all men of unequivocal. principles. Immediately after the ceremony had been terminated, the new Pre sident, &c. were'sworn in, took their. seats, and the Cortes were declared to be finally installed ; a deputation of twenty-four Members was . the appointed to wait on the King, and it ac cordingly went to the Palace- in twelve carriages, followed by several hundred more, containing a large portion of the Nobility and Gentry. On its introduction to his Majesty, the cortege was very graciously receivedi and having expressed his approbation of the Election, tx.c. the• King signified his intention of proceeding to the Cham ber on Sunday next, for the purpose of taking the oaths. The deputation having returned in the same order, made' its Report to the President and Members; soon - after which the Meeting Was ad journed, anda very large concourseof all classes attended during the whole day ; and although there were nearly two thousand visitors within the baildings, the utmost order and regularity prevailed. Yesterday the King visited the Chamber. incog'nito, accompanied by ,two Cham- - berlains, and expressed himself highly gratified with the taste and elegance displayed in the mode of fitting it up. The Ceremony of the 9th will be of the most imposing description. I un derstand his Majesty is to proceed-to the Cortes on foot, but as no programme has been published, I have some reason to doubt' the correctness of the information. Nothing Can exceed the enthu siasm of all ranks. Madrid is filling very fast, but it is worthy of remark, that, with the exception of a few French'speculators, there should scarcely be ten foreigners here, to view one of the most interesting and magnifiCent sights ever witnessed in this country. Those who have recently arrived are Spaniards from the large towns or' the sea coast, such as Cadiz, Barcelona, Valencia, &c. —Measures of the utmost precaution have been taken to secure the triumph of freedom over su perstition and intolerance .on Sunday next. A large pertion of the Constitutional Army will be in attendance, and it is scarcely necessary to re peat, that these brave men are ready to die in defence of the Cortes. - The Pope is said . to have refused his assent to the Bull requested •by Ferdinand, for secularizing the Clergy or Monks, who may be desirous .of returning to. the bosom of society. Some of the Madrid Editors eizult in this circumstance, as ac cording to their notions, it will afford. Spain an opportunity -of,shaking off a yoke, that has long become intolerable, not to say onerous. There seems to be no doubt of the King's sincerity . ; he is said to be convinced of the necessity. there is of adhering to the new system', and I have really heard More than one well-informed Patriot declare that Ferdinand VII. is one of the most li beral politicians-in Spain. I forgot to mention in my last that the, priest who was taken up at Burgos, told his friends there, amongst other things, that a Russian and French, army were about to march .into Spain! In Portugal the most rigid measures are adopted with regard to this Country ; the communication of every kind is said to be extremely reserved, yet, there is very little doubt of there being.a junta of Ecclesia. , ..- tics and Persas.colleCted there, for the purpose of disseminating' "the old lights in Spain.' . This is entitled, par excellence, I presume, El unico Apostolica Romans .1 An order has just been issued by the Minister of War, appointing a Contrnission ,to inquire into the best mode of establishing a system of mutual instruction on Lancaster's plan, , throughout the army. A Ministerial Paper, commenting - on the above order, congratulateS Spain on. the prospect of all the individuals composing the army being able to read and write in-the course of six months from the perio'd of the proposed establish ment. There is a report in circulation,• by no Means creditable - to the Minister of Finance. It . is said that directions have been given at Vit toria, to examine the books imported from France,. ' and only to 'permit the entry of a certain class of . , works. I ought not to conclude without repeat ing, that the mdst sanguine expectations are en , tertainetl of the Cortes. Some very alarmiug reports have just reached this place from Paris. • A Gazette Extraordinary, by order of. the King, has just been issued, to notify the Election of Presidents and Secretaries; an event, which, according to the Gazette, is to be- the signal of future glory and prosperity to the Spanish people. The North York Militia having completed their month of service at Richmond, on the 7th inst. the inhabitants were gratified by the sigli of a grand review on the race-grOund. Much credit is due to the Officers of this regiment for their unwearied exertions and exemplary assiduity, which in so short a time have transformed, with almost magical celerity, a body of raw uninstruct ed men into a regiment, not inferior to one of the Line. On Friday the weather was particu larly favourable, and the Stand was crowded with Ladies to witness this pleasing exhibition. They were gallantly invited by the Officers to partake of a cold collation after the Review:— This elegant repast consisted of every delicacy of the season, and seldom has Richmond witnessed a more splendid assemblage of beauty and fashion than set down to it. After this refreshment the company commenced dancing : this amusement was continued with great spirit till late in the evening, which concluded with that harmony and good humour so peculiarly the characteristic of this Regiment.—(Sczccustle (:durant.) • Mrs. MARDYN has met with a "serious acci dent, which will prevent her appenrauce this night, at the - Haymarket Theatre.

Sheriff WHITE was walking near the Exchange, one of those, idle and profligate young depredators "who are so numerous on the town, picked the Sheriff's pocket of a silk hand kerchief, and was handing it to another of his companions, when .the Sheriff turn-, ed round and secured him. The Sheriff also - seized his companion, at which' the first urchin threw himself on the ground and pretended to fall into a fit, and whilst the Sheriff was en deavouring to Secure him, the other twisted him self out of his hand and escaped. The" Sheriff was then resolved the first shOuld not escape front him, and he sent for a jug of water and threw the contents into his face ; but all his exertions to arouse him produced no effect : he "then had him conveyed to the Bridewell, and there, ou . the application of the first stroke of a cat-o-uine- - tails to his breech, he bounced out .of his le verie. He turned out to be a brother ofliaig Connell, who became approver in the robbery at Prosiiect Lodge, in the South Liberties, and oft whose testimony chiefly, Desmond and Meehan were hung last Assizes; he has given some im portant information to the Sheriff of several re cent robberies, and also 'where the depredators used to make their haunt at a waste house near the New Barracks.—(Cork Mercantile Chronicle, July 16.) SINGULAR INS"TANCI: OF HONESTY.---A Mr. JOHN BRAND, a native of Montrose, cai - nerto Dun dee, as a Item-dresser, about the year 1794 ;and some time thereafter commenced a manufacturer on his own account ; but towards the end of the year 1801 or 1802, he fell behind in 'his circum stances, left Dundee, and went to North America. Ills effects were sold by trustees for behoof of his creditors ; from which a dividend was paid of 65., 10d. per pound. After being some time in America My. Brand settled in Lexington, Ken-. 'tucky ; Where, by his industry and frugality, he became successful in business ;. in consequence of which, in the summer of 1818; he employed an agent in I Edinburgh to write to his creditors, mak ing offer to pay, them the principal, but not the interest, of their several claims ; which was. ac cepted of ; and -seine time afterwards the money, to, a- considerable amount, was paid by the said Agent. in Edinburgh, to such of Mr. Brand's creditorS as - tad forwarded their just claims, 'except one individual,:ivho by mistake omitted to send his account to Edinburgh. Upotr Mr. Brand's discovering this- - omission, however, he wrote from Lexington; expressing_ his sorrow a a theeet h neglect at the money ; and a opportunity after the accounts were _ receiv ed by him in America: - which has been'the case, as the :litOhueld tame be remitted time gav th a : first rponef was received in full a few days ago.
