" The Madrid Gazette Extraordinary, Of the 9th of March, contains the following Article : Ilaving determined by a Decree of the 9111 inst. to sweir • o the Constitution published at Cadiz. by tie General and Extraordinary Cortes in the year 1812, 1 have taken the oath provisionany before a Junta appointed par interim, and composed of persons who enjil the confidence of the people, intending before the Cortes, which 1 propose to convoke, conformably to the said Constitution, to take solemnly the same oath in the form prescrib ed by that Constitution. The individuals appointed to compose the said Junta, are the Reverend Cardinal de Bourbon, Archbishop of Toledo, President ; Lieut,Gene ral Don Francis Ballasteros, Vice-President ; the Reverend Bishop of Valladolid de Mechoacan, Don Manuel Abad y Quezpo, Don Manuel Lar dizahal, Don i\lateo Valdemoros, Don Vincent Sancho, Colonel of Engireers, the Count de Tapoada, Don Francis Crespo de 'Nada, Don Bernard Tarrine, and Don Ignare Przuela, All the measures emanatingfirm the Govern ment until Constitutional Installation of the Cortes will be submitted to this Junta, and pub lished with their coment. This determination shall be published through our the Kingdom, in order that it may be prompt ly and immediately executed. (Signed with the King's own hand, at the Palace , 9th March, 18R0,) ' D. JOSEPH GARCIA, DE LA TORRE.' " In the ordinary Gazette of the same day, the following Decree is published : The King considering the constant testimonies of fidelity and attachment to his Royal person of Lieut.-Gen. Don. F.Ballasteros, and his wellknown military services, of which he Ilas given so many proofs to the nation, his Majesty has appointed bins General in Chief of the Army of the Centre, the formation of which has been ordered for such objects of service as may present themselves. I communicate this to your Excellency, by the King's command, in order to its execution in whatever concerns you. 4 At the Palace, 7th March, 1820. 6 To the Captain-General of the Province .of Madrid.' By a Decree of the 813 of March, his Catho lic Majesty has ordered to lse set at liberty all persons detained on account of political offences or opinions, and permits all Spaniards now in Foreign States, for the same reasons, to return to their Country. The Royal Press is now called the National Press ; this is remarked in the Madrid Gazette of the 9'l►.' " appears that there is an interruption in the communication between Cadiz and Madrid; no thing is said reipecting the former City. From Blyonne it is stated, that General Freyre had re ceived orders te proceed to Madrid, with the Army under his command. (From the Moititcur.) " Letters from Madrid of the 9th March, state, that there was on that day a Court at the Palace which was numerously attended. The lii ig tninife►ted calmness and affability. In the midst of the effervescence which the Revolution of the 7th naturally produced,it was impossible not to remark how much the person of the King was dear to the people. When the garrison, consisting of the Regiments of the Guards, came to the deter mination of going to join those who were called the Jusuri.:euts, if the King did not accept the Constitution of 1812, they resolved to leave two Battalions to watch over his Majesty's safety. We are autimoui4cd to publish time following aricle His Catholic Majesty fAavir,g on the 13{h inst• i+sur_►i a Decree, according to whirl► all Spaniards now out of the Kingdom on arcuunt Of political opiiiions, may rett►ru to ti►eir homes, the Duke de Fanan Nunez, Ambassador ui his Catholic Ma• y ro Ills alost Lllllsllall ildajeSly, LISS Elle 11011 OUT to inform all Spani,-trtis included in that Decree, now in France, thut he has orders to deliver to them the ncctssary passports. lie therefore in vites them to pre,ent themselves at the Hotel of the Emblssy, where passports will be delivered to them, or to the Spanish Consuls in the towns where they reside.' " The Journal des Debuts has an Article from Midrid, dated the 10th of March, stating that the Capital had been illuminated for three nights. The King repeated his oath to the CoUstittition in a balcony, in the presence of the assembled people. Ou teleasing the persons detained on account of political opinions, the malefactors also endea voured to escape, and killed three sentinels ; but after 19 of the offenders were killed, the rest were seemed. The French news in these Journals is of little importance. The King held his usual Court on Sunday. On Saturday in the Chamber of Peers, the prujet respecting individual liberty was, re tared to a Special Committee of five. .FIVE PER CENTS. Shut price Saturday, Ex. Dir. , DEFERRED STOCK.

Part of this ar ticle is merely a repetition of what has appeared in all the London .I , ,urnals; anti the rest we have no doubt is wholly invention. The pretended Letters of the Queeta from Rome speak posi tively of her intention of returning to England.— We are persuaded that her MAJESTY has no such ' intention, though she may indeed have given or ders for preparations to receive her.---We are per suaded also that it she is waiting at Rome for Mr. BROUGHAMS advice (her alleged ATTORNEY-GE. NERAL), she will wait for ever before she will te ceiveadvice from him tore-visit this Country, unless indeed she may be deemed useful for some radical speculation. As to her MAJESTY'S haring ex , pressed much indignation at the omission of her name in the Liturgy, we consider the asser tion to be mere invention. The Questa must be well aequ4luted with the charges brought against her, and that, whether true or false, it would be grossly improper at present to render her the object of National Prayers to the Throne of Grace. We have been assured, that those who have hitherto appeared to be her MAJESTY'S Friends and Advisers, begin to shrink from the support of her cause. There need no stronger symptoms of this intended retreat, than the bold manner in which Mr. TIRRNer declared in the House of Commons,' that her conduct ought to be investigated, that it might be seen whether she was worthy to occupy the fhroue of England, and that, if not worthy, His MAJESTY Might enjoy the same privi lege as any of his subjects, of getting rid of a de grading burthen, or words to that effect. Ano ther strong, though negative symptom o f suc h a meditated retreat may be i;;ferred from the de claration of Mr. BROUGHAM also in the H ouse o f Commons, that be would not utter a word upon the subject. Surely as the Honourable Member is not much addicted to silence, he must have bad weighty reasons of policy for such unusual taci turnity upon a subject on which he had before been so clam o ro us . S ure ly, too, he might have been expected, as her strenuous friend as well as her confidential adviser (or Attorney- General), to have stood up in her defence, and have held forth a proud defiance to all who pre sumed to malign her character, or to give the least sanction to the infamous stories so freely circulated against her in every part of the Continent. We wish for nothing but truth and justice, and shall be sincerely glad to find that, on a fair inquiry, they will be found to operate in lien favour. I 1 The Radical Candidates still prosper in Mid ! ' dlesex and IVestminster, but we ardently hope that the County and the City will rescue them selves from the odium of a Radical Representa tion. There was a whole group of Radical Nobles and others yesterday on the Hustings at Brentlord, arrayed against Mr. Mewsn. It is creditable rather to have the hostility than the support of such characters, who like pies that cut their own throats in the stream, are drawing on their own ruin by countenancing principles, which tend to the destruction of all ranks, and the general spoliation of the Empire. Men who advocate such principles must he fools or madmen, whatever may be their rank ; and the higher their rank, and the ampler their possessions, they must be still greater fools and more et. n fi rin ed Mr. MitetAl:it bas reached the height of mercantile credit, and is one of the Ditectors of the greatest Commucial Body in the erodi. Would eifter ompeutors, or any o tors, it they had began life as lie did, have ever attained the same estimable rank in society? No; they would probably have sunk into the lowest degite of Radicalism, as they may do hereafter, if they do not begin a Reform in themselves. Mr. BYNG, for a wonder, opened his mouth on the Hustings yesterday—(he hardly ever does in the House of Commons)—and advised the Electors of Great Britain to propose as a test to the Candidates, that they should be asked if " in these times, when the People ate already loaded with excessive taxes, will you or will you not support any in crease to the Civil List ?" This test is a mere ad captandum use of the falsehood first circulated by the Times, that such increase was intended by Government, a falsehood repeatedly contradicted by authority, and notwithstanding again impu dently asserted in the same Paper. The Times ought to compliment Mr. BYNG on this occasion, and then the Panegyrist and the Subject will be worthy of each other. of his U their Radical .11) INIQUITOUS TRANSACTION.—The names of the Gentlemen who have received summonses to at tend as Special Jurymen on the trial of Sir FRAN cis BURDETT, at Leicester, having been an nounced in the London Papers, several of them who arrived at that town on Tuesday, on going to the Post-office, each received a Letter with the London post-mark, directed to himself. We sub join a copy of this daring attempt to prejudice the minds of the Jury, and we trust that all pos sible means will be used to discover the author or authors, and bring them to punishment. The Letter was primed in a type called Script, in imi tation of hand-writing. (coPv.) " PRlVATE.—Hopeless must be the state of the country, if, upon a great occasion like that of the impending trial, nar row views of local dispensation are to supersede general duty; and words made so paramount to things, that the truest friend of the people should be delivered up to the discre tion of those who, however furred and ermined, are still the creatures of a pillaging, corrupt, cruel, blood-hunting Government ! All will indeed be lost, if Jurors are put beside themselves by panic, from a supposed, but unproved, perhaps fictitious, probably exaggerated, evidently pre judged, plot—if abhorrence of assassination, however wor thy of the British character in principle is, together with the annihilation of all distinction regarding state culprits, so to influence jurors, that their original, imprescriptible, in alienable, permanent obligation as citizens of the Common wealth, shall be forgotten in the exercise of a function purely temporary—if feelings of this description, so littlesuited to the present crisis, are to prevail in the approaching trial—if the 'monstrous doctrine that the innocent must suffer for the guil ty, is to actuate the ministry of law, then adieu to all that sub stantial Reform, which, without resurt to blood4hed, would lighten the land from the weight that devotes its industry to the sustenance of drones, and would insure the punishment of the national oppressors by more eligible means than sum mary infliction. "At all events, let not this fact be overlooked. The issue inrolves no less than the liberty, the fortune, the health, per hapseventually the life itself of the first man in Britain. i" Private' is placed at the head of this paper. i It is a fa shion to slight anonymous tin eats ; yet the transgressor of the injunction at top, whoever he may be, is hereby gravely warned that be must—abide the consequence of divulging this document." This infamous scroll was immediately delivered to Mr. Justice BEST, who ordered it to be handed to the Counsel for the Prosecution, for them to adopr the proper course, who doubtless will en deavour to frustrate this villainous attempt to pollute the stream of Justice. In the midst of electioneering bustle bnt little mention of the QUEEN has occurred. Her MA. JESTY, however, is of a character not likely to allow of her being overlooked or forgotten. We some time ago beard that an arrangement was made, according to which her income was to be increased, her reception at Foreign Courts secur ed, and all the patronage enjoyed by preced ing Queens of England conceded to her, on an im plied condition that she would not visit England. This information, which proved erroneous, was never inserted by us... We subsequently learned, with undoubted certainty, that her MAJESTY was at Home, waiting for letters from Mr. BaotionAm (whom we believe we may call her MAJESTY'S Attorney-General), by which she would shape her course. With this the last intelligence which we have received is in strict conformity, an d i s also, eve have no doubt, entitled to implicit credit. It is as follows : " Letters have been received in town from the QUEEN, dated Rome, the 28th of February, and 6th of March, in which her MAJESTY speaks posi tively of her intention of returning to England, and of having ordered persons to meet her at Calais. Her MAJESTY expresses much indignation at the omission of her name in the Liturgy of the Church of England, and mentions those persons whom she supposes to have been the instigators of so gross an insult. Notwithstanding this in terdiction, her MAJESTY expresses l,er hopes that the people of England will still pray for her in their hearts ; and she assures them she is well, and sensibly alive to the machinations and plots of her enemies."--The Times. We have received accounts from Galway of Sa torciny's date. It was rumoured that a general rising would take place on St, Patrick's Day, and such was the apprehension that the Guards on the Town of Gal vay were doubled. The rumour was unfounded, as the event has proved, but the present quiet state of the Disturbed Districts is attributed by many to the Assizes, and it is said, that, after their termination, the Ribbonmen will resume operations. We hope the contrary, and trust that the peasan7ry will re main at their usual avocations.—(Dublin Journal, March 20.) On Wednesday last, the Galway Police, both lunge and loot, who made this town the place of their rendezvous, having received their arms and accoutrements, marched for the minty Galway, to commence active operations.—(dthlone Herald, March 19) We learn with much satisfaction that Lord DUNDAS, whose death was erroneously inserted in our Paper of yester.lay, is much improved in health, at Ask Hall, in Yorkshire.—We regret extremely our being led into an error, which must have given ►momentary pain to the friends of the Noble Lord.—(Morning Herald,) GENERAL ELECTION.
