FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. Pious, DEC. 'ls.—Thterday 'morning our. 'Minister for Foreign Affairs received an extra .ardinary Courier .from 'Madrid. He left that capital on the,6th. At his departure the greatest - tranquillity prevailed. The two last sittings of the Landahurian Society had, however, been very' storm. Martinez San Martin, the Politlcal Chiefrof Madrid under the late Ministry, against whom` the Fiscal Paredes issued a writ on the grolukd of 'his being implicated in the affair of 1it0 , 74.1i.0f July, and from the effects of which he was saved by the Supreme Tribunal Of Justice annulling the 'process of the Fiscal, presented himself in the last of the two sittings. He was, however, so ill received, that -he was under the necessity of withdrawing immediately, to avoid the imminent danger in which he was placed.— (Journal de Path.) On- Friday afternoon, the Duke de Montmo rency transacted business with the King. The 'Count 'de Clerinont Tonnerre, Minister of the Marine, transacted business with the Duke de Angouleme, the High Admiral. Several persons attribute the depression of the funds.whichtook place yesterday to the dispatches received from Madrid ; but we are of opinion that the fluctuation had its origin in other causes, and we have some reason to -be persuaded that the news from Madrid was not of a nature to pro duce this unfavourable influence.—(Mid.) Yesterday evening the Spanish Ambassador dispatched an extraordinary courier to Madrid. The Duke of Wellington came, at two o'clock yesterday, to pay his respects at the Tuileries, to their Royal Highnesses Monsieur, Madame, the Duke of Angouleme, and the Duchess of Berry. It is said that his Grace will not set out for Eng land till the end of the present week. We are assured that the Duke of Wellington had on Thursday a long audience with the King, after which his Grace immediately dispatched a courier for Madrid. His 'Excellency the Duke of San Lorenzo .visited the Duke of Wellington on Friday. The interview of these two personages was pretty •long, and we understood that the Spanish Ambas sador came away very well satisfied, and with new assurances of the continuance of peace. The Count de Toreno had a similar interview with the Duke of Wellington. Baron Fagel, Charge d'Affaires of the King of the Netherlands, died on his arrival at Lisbon. —The diplomatic body have paid him the last honours. No. 571 of the 'Bulletin des Lois, published iyesterday, contains an Ordinance of the King of -the 27th of November last, calling into active service all the young soldiers of the class of 1821, at present disposable, and which prescribes their distribution into corps. According to the 3d article of this ordinance, the departures of the young soldiers called into active service must terminate before the 20th inst. LieuL-General Tirlet •has been named com mandant of the artillery of the army of the 'Western Pyrenees ; and the Mareschal-de-camp „Terye, commandant of the artillery of the army of the Eastern Pyrenees. • .(From the Joureatdes Debuts.) " We have 'detailed the weighty, and, as it appears to us, .decisive reasons which prevent France from declaring war ..against Spain. The all but impossibility of - deriving an useful result, even from the most successful campaigns, precludes a • constitutional and responsible Government from -'lncurring the : hazards of an enterprize which may compromise all our national interests, beginning with shat which. is the first of them all— iegitimaey. All-our arguments are reducible to this one word. If they had been calmly anti honestly weighed, no friend of the •monarchical. cause could now remain in the fatal error.of de- airing war with Spain—an error, moreover, shared by so small • a number of persons, that it will, 'ere long, be matter of aStonish -ment when this number is known. " But•what is the reasoning, and what ti tone, which is employed against us ? In the 'first place, we are told inces- santly of the dangers to which the Royal Family of Spain is -exposed. Have we shown any insensibility on this point ? Have not the authority and safety of the King appeared al ways in our eyes the first of interests ? Have we not dec:ared that menaces aimed at his sacred person, and at the persons of his august brothers, would.authorize immediate war. " In the , present state of things, it is precisely the imprudent provocations of the friends of war which would have the power of exciting against the Bourbons of Spain that popular fury which hitherto, without success, the Zztrriago has attempted to : stimulate. Our articles, on the contrary, are calculated to .maintain the idea,•happily general at Madrid; that King Fer dinand VIl. is the first element: of a free Spanish Constitu tion. • • * • " Profound politicians a'sk us to whom unr sage counsels are addressed ? 'We have said it twenty times. We address our selves to all. Spaniards who are Willing to 'bear the =voice of reason ;:wito comprehend the union of Monarchy with true liberty, and who can have any influence on the re-establish ment of order." [After some observations of less general interest, the 'Journal des Debats alludes as folloiv to the speculators on 'Change.] " Some frequenters of the 'Change see in a newspaper ar tide nothing but the means of supporting hazardous specula tions : this class of persons reproach us With hot saying the same thing every - day. Our answer is this—We always support the Wile doctrines, the same principles;' but as to events and facts, say, it rains,' when it does rain, and it is fine,' when it is fine. If there are people , who lay wagers on the rain and fine weather; what use is it to them that a journal will tell them in .. the , , morning that it will rain in, torrents, when perhaps the sun will disperse all the clouds ?..One wager is as hazard- ous as the other ; and we would seriously advise all those wha hunt for the rise and fall in the news , of the journals, to ,pay their attention rather to the flight of ,birds,.which is a far len deceitful kind of augury. " There are persons who ask, with a simplicity highly amus ing*., whether the treaty , of peace. is concluded, and by whom is . signed? We- are very happy to be able to inform them • thit there has been no declaration•o£ war or hostility, and that consequently there is no necessity for cancludiv nor sighing a treaty of peace. "We are accused of having-committed a great indiscretion in disposing of the two Americas with an air of certainty.— flow long hag the conditional mood been expressive of cer- • It was the . Qmotidienne that asked this. amusingly simple , _question. tAinty '? We remarked, that in the present situation of Spain,° her trAnsmarine provincei would be lost to her without the least compensation.; but that'hy checking her excesses, she might hope, with the . assistance -M . France, to derive at least some' financial, commercial, andpolitical advantage's from her 'former colonies. These colonieg themselves, and France also, would he great gainers by the maintenance of a fraternal bond between the different branches of the-great Spanish family. Spaniards who are friends of your national glory, we exclaim, seize this new motive for putting a stop to your revolution. Are you net all agreed to prefer Princes of the blood of your Kings on the thrones Of Peru and Mexico to the Iturbides and San :Wafting ? What is there indiscreet rin reasoning like this ? Show is, if you can, that it is false? Indiscretion would belong only to an offiVi:6l#7 of these future advantages, subject to so many chaneeiiii,4l4,7 - do , not pretend to negotiate with-the Spanish eVV't pretend-merely to reason with the . • en lightened pulaleAliptli sides of the Pyrenees." I V • 444 lefor An extragarzfh- e the Court of Assize of the .Arrisige :—Some-lithrtarttr. of ,the arrondisse-, went of St; Girons had formed ll* isilfeet to set the'Spanish prisoners , free. who were. confine* at Montgary, in Spain; by the Army of, the Faith. One attempt, executed by a small number of individuals, procured freedom to three •Spaniards ; emboldened by - success, a larger number of luen armed began their march in order to liberate the whole. The epterprise, however, was very soon abandoned. Of fifteen individuals arrested on this account, eleven have been set at liberty. The four others have been sent to trial, accused some of having committed others of attempting to commit a crime -prohibited by the Bth article of the Penal Code, which punishes. all those ,4th banishment who expose, by acts not sanctioned by the Government, Frenchmen to reprisals.—(Paris Papers.) PETERSBUJWII, Nov. 19.—A courier from Vienna has brought dispatches said to be of the highqt importance. No thing has however transpired in public respecting their con tents, but we have learned that the -corps d'arnue, ' under General Wittgenstein, which occupied very extended quarters from Volbynia to Bessarabia, had recently received orders to concentrate itself in closer cantonments. SP AI N. MADRID, Dr.CEMBER 6. In the Sitting of the Spanish Cortes on the sth instant, the Government was authorized to confirm the capitulation made by General Palarea with the rebel Guards on the 7th of July. —This measure is much more effective and explicit than the general amnesty previously granted.—(Journal des Deh:ts.) PERPIGNAN, DEC. 7. [EXTRACT FROM OITR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.] " The Archbishop of Tarragona arrived here yesterday. fie put up at the Golden Lion, where the. Marquess of Mata-Flo rida, and also the Ministers of the Regency, lodge. The Ar chives, which arrived yesterday, on two mules, were sent by a carriage this morning to Carcassonne. " M. Mata-Florida did not dine with the Prefect, though in vited ; it is believed some difficulties arose as to the ceremonial to be adopted. M. de Gishert, Minister of Foreign Affairs, has had several conferences; however, with this Magistrate.— M. de Ortaffa : who was at the Theatre during his late journey in the Prefect's box, appeared there yesterday in the pit in strict incognito. " The arms given up by the Army of the Faith have been deposited at the store-houses of Mont Louis. Gen. Vasserpt arrived here yesterday, at two o'clock in the afternoon, coming from Cerdagne. The disarmed columns of •the Army of the Faith, which had received orders to halt at Ille-Thuir and Cerei, have been to-day quartered in the different villages of the plain. These troops are to remain there till they can return to Spain; and it appears that this will not be very soon ; for it is certain that the whole of Catalonia is in arms to oppose their passage. According to the news we have received; this pro vince is forming a Cordon on its frontiers, like that-established in the time of the yellow fever. " We have heard that General Milans ,commenced his ope rations at the same time as Gets. Mina. On November 27, he dispersed at Pola Fourgelles the troops of Moses Anton, of Bal laster, and of the biaclicr, De Cossa-tle-la Lotre, who heads 200 smugglers. These different bands fled with.all speed to wards Sainte-Colombe and Sainte Ifilaire, taking the moun-' tain's road, and arrived at Olot without firing a musket.— IVlilans enteredOlot on December the Ist, without meeting the least• resistance, and Moses Anton retreated to. Campredon. All the other chiefs have tome towards our front ier. Two-Chiefs of the band of Missas have already arrivedhe re, and. it is re-. ported that Missas has arrived himself. " Some soldiers of the band of Moses Anton have arrived at Prate:de 'Mollo with about one hundred Monks. They were Obliged to lay down their arms at the Castle. The operations. of General Mantis and Colonel Costa have pushed the troops of the Faith towards our frontiers, and have forced fugitive bands from Cerdagne to remain stationary in our department. " Before yesterday, several Officers of General Mina arrived here, who had been made prisoners at Urgel, and conducted' to Toulouse. • They came here from that town, where they en ered quite in rags, and were at first very badly received. They were taken for the men of the Faith, but as soon as the error was discovered, they were amply compensated. People stripped off their clothes to give to them ; a subscription was imme diately opened in their favour ; and they•say, had they received every thing which was offered them, as clothes and other suc cours, it would have been impossible to carry them into Spain. They speak with gratitude and affection of this generous hos pitality, and are quite enraptured with the conduct of the inha bitants of Toulouse towards them."—(Le Constitutionnel.) CITY, .TUESDAY EVENING. This day Las‘passed away almost without a rumour, and nothing political has occurred to create theslightest variation in the value of public national securities. •In the best informed circles, is supposed that the - Emperor ALEXANDER will be forced to abandon his hostile designs against the Turkish Empire, and that the A nti-Mahomedan population of Eu ropean Turkey must in future depend on their own resources for emancipation from the most bitter yoke under which human nature ever laboured. The freedom of Spain and Portugal is not more necessary to the pri:4erity of the British Empire than is the liberation. of the Christian population of ancient Greece. A powerful Empire may -be created •in that part of Europe so highly favoured by nature, and it will in that , event be the natural Ally of England, for each produces what- the other wants. At the'head•of the Liberties of Europe the power of England is not to be resisted, but in league with despots, or under a baseless neutrality, where freedom is ibterested, she becomes her own destroyer. The independence of the Peninsula, of Italy, and the Levant, consolidates the Empire of England and of know-. ledge, whilst the thraldom and oppression of these nations must assuredly produce the triumph of bigotry and the destruction of the happiness of mankind. To restore the Grecian Empire will for ever limit the power pf Russia. To assist the liberties of the Peninsula -will -produce a,powerful Ally in 'any future war with France, and the independence of.ltaly will be equally beneficial towards a'free intercourse amongst the various Eu• ropean States. It is in this view of Europe, that the merchants' will not credit-any rumour -which may militate. against .the fu ture freedom and independence of Greece. The want of reports, and the scarcity of money, usual at:this period of the . year, rendered Consols very dull this day, and scarcely any variation took place in them. The idea of war. betwixt Prance_ and Spain does not produce any effect on prices. —For the - January settlement they, opened at 8111 sellers, and closed at 81,-k There was very:little business done in Foreign Public Securities, and their value is nearly the same..as quoted yesterday.—(2llorning.Chroiiiele„) THE SUN. SOLEM RUM DICEIZE FALSVM 41.IDEAT ? LONDON, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1822. [FROM A CORRESPONDENT.] CITY, Half-pait Twelve o'Clock. —Consols opened this morning at 81-k, but the moment it was known that an Express had arrived from Paris, bringing the French Funds, 89 f. 55 c. and 89 f. 75 c. for time, our Funds became rather heavy, and were done at at which price they remained steady up to this hour.--The Foreign Market was also heavy : Spanish Bonds, which opened at 59, fell to 574, 58. We do not hear that the French Express brings any news of importance. The Journal des Daats has renewed its paci fic reasoning and assurances; and it very pro perly ridicules the Quotitlienne, nearly in the same terms which we used yesterday, for the sim plicity and folly vtith which it inquired where and by whom a Treaty of Peace between France and Spain had been concluded ! The Journal des Whats now maintains, that no friend of the French Monarchy can longer remain in the fatal error of desiring war with Spain,— an error, which, it alleges, is shared by so small a number of persons, that it is mat ter of astonishment to see their paucity. If we may credit the account of the extraordinary enterprise which is attributed to some of the in habitants of the arrondissement of St. Girons, who, marching into Spain, attempted the libera tion of sonre Spanish Constitutionalists, whom the Army of the Faith had made prisoners, it would appear that the popular opinion in. France is not only adverse to the projected war, but that it is decidedly favourable to that very cause which the French Government was anxious to destroy ! It is little less than madness to suppose that a French. Ministry will plunge into a war so doubtful in its results, even, if it were agreeable to the feelings and desires of the nation, and which, in addition to the ordi_ nary perils and chances , of discomfiture from the external enemy, might, from the actual disposi tion of the public mind, create ..a contest at home, involving the safety and the very existence of the Government itself. We can understand, however, the motives (we will not say the reasons), which induce a small party in France still to demand the commencement of - hostilities, in defiance of the manifest imprudence and danger of the attempt. It is not so easy to account for the pertinacity with which one or two English Jour nalists still persevere in inciting France to an act of aggression, the success of which would be scarcely less prejudicial to the interests of Great Britain, than its failure would be ruinods to the French Monarchy! One of these Writers, although he at length acknowledges, in his pub lication of this morning, that England cannot suffer a despotic Government to be 'imposed upon Spain, continues, notwithstanding, to excite France to the invasion of the Spanish territory, although the result of that invasion might be to place Spain at the absolute disposal of France Finding, however, tlrat the French Govern ment have resisted all the arguments for war which were founded upon the alleged necessity for remodelling the Spanish Con stitution, the Journalist 'to whom we allude endeavours to work upon their fears, and to in duce them now to plunge into a war with Spain, because it is possible that Spain may une day. at tack France. That the SpaniSh Constitutionalists will be disposed to go to war, according to this sagacious politician, " is the more likely, be- 1 cause a foreign war will tend to consoli date their power at home ; and they will easily be persuaded that they can revolu tionize France ; and to this latter scheme they will be the more prompted, the more weakness and indecision the French Government shall have shewn !" The same Journalist, our Readers should be informed, has been daily giving the most positive assurances that the majority of the Spanish people detest their Constitution and the present form and spirit of their Go vernment ! And yet, as an indirect incen tive to war, he now represents that Go vernment as capable of carrying a war of injustice and revolutionary aggression into France ! Would England, too, consent to a re volutionary attack upon France? And would Spain venture upon such an attack in defiance of the power of England, when we have just seen that the influence of England has been sufficient to deterthe more powerful Monarcy of France from the execution of its intended attack upon Spain ? We confess that we are utterly unable to compre hend the motives of those persons who would thus blindly urge the French Government over the precipice upon the brink of which they have so fortunately paused. 'We do not like the em ployment of strong epithets ; but, when we find that there are Englishmen who thus endeavour to produce a rupture, which is so much to be dreaded on the grounds of humanity alone, and which is so obviously mischievous to the inte rests of their own country, and opposed• to the policy of their own Government, we are con strained to view their conduct with feelings of horror, and to stigmatize it as atrocious. New York Papers to the 20th, Charlestown to the 19th, and Philadelphia to the 21st of N - vernber, arrived,this morning. The following are extracts : ( From Me Norfolk Beacon, Nov. 14.) An intelligent Gentleman who arrived here last night in the schooner Dart, from Carthagena, which place he left on the 20th of October, states the respective positions of the Patriot forces at the time of his sailing to be as follows : General Montilla, who had just been ap pointed Commander-in-Chief of all the Colom bian forces employed on the sea-board, was at Rio de la Hache with 500 men, and expected to be joined by 400 more. General Paez was en gaged in the siege of Porto Cavallo, and .General Soublette between Valencia and Caraccas. The last advices received at Carthagena from Mo rales states, that he had marched from Mara caybo into the 'interior upon a secret expedition, leaving 200 men to garrison that place. General Bolivar was at Guayaquil, about 140 miles south west of Quito, and two expresses -had been dis patched by Government, requiring his immediate return to Colombia. Much dissatisfaction was anticipated on the part of the Congress at his late movements. [From the Boston Paper. of the'lsth cf November.] By the brig Hope, Capt. Man, from Madras, we received Papers to the 25th of July. A violent storm and inundating rain were ex perienced in India early in June, and nearly de stroyed all the Indigo plants. A great amount of property has been lost by the inundations, and some lives have been lost; it was feared that, on the Small Churs, the greatest part of the popu lationhacl perished; 12,000 rupees were, subscribed at Calcutta for the surviving sufferers. The rice harvest has particularly failed at Manilla. Mr. Willock, the British Charge des Affaires in Persia, had refused to pay the usual tribute, and demanded his passports. This has produced a report that there would be a rupture between England and Persia. A good under standing is said to have been afterwards restored, and Mr.Winock left the Persian Court in all ami ,cable manner, to proceed to England to consult his Government. On an -important point mention is made a a Russian Officer having been discovered in dis guise in the neighbourhood of Dolio. There has been several important failures among the native merchants who have speculated in cotton.. A Junk of 800 or 900 tons from Amoy, 'China, for Batavia, with 1600 passengers, from the ages of seventy to six, a valuable cargo, and numer ous crew, was shipwrecked on the sth of July, on Gosparo Island, and all but 190 perished ; those saved were taken up by the British ship India. One of the Noncowrie Islands is said to be occupied by a large number of Europeans who exist as pirates. Several persons bathing not far from Calcutta have been seized by Alli gators and Sharks.. CALCUTTA, JUNE 14.—A most violent storm burst over Calcutta ou the night of Friday last the 7th inst :—Accounts from Dinapore mention, that boats without number have been lost in the Ganges, and the shores were covered with wrecks. LATEST FROM COLOMBI.I.—.A passenger i° the Georgetown Packet has favoured us wit h Caraccas Papers to the 7th ult., which contain no news ; he left Laguira on the 16th October, General Morales had evacuated Maracay bo, a nd arrived at Porto Cavallo. President Bolivar and General Devereux were daily expected a t Ca• raccas from Quito, when more active measures would be adopted for the reduction of Ports Cavallo. Notwithstanding our firm and unalterable ne herence to the Protestant principles of the Bri' tish Constitution, and our sincere and ferven t devotion to the maintenance of the Protestan t A.:cendancy in the Councils of the Empire, w e early participated in the feelings of the more moderate and less vehement body of the Pro' testant interest in Ireland, who, in obedience to the paternal admonition of his MAJESTY, wer e desirous of removing, as far as was compa' tible with the security of our Establishmen t in Church and State, all causes of use' less and unprofitable contention with their Re' man Catholic fellow-subjects. The decoration of King WILLIAM'S statue, our Readers are aWarel was one of those unnecessary ceremonies, which, though not only harmless, but even laudable in themselves, served to perpetuate the most nume' rous animosities ; and the resolution of the Irish Government, therefore, to prevent its re' petition, was justly regarded as an important step toward the introduction of conciliatory feeling s amongst the people _chiefly remarkable for th e virulence and, intensity - of the mutual antipa' titles. The interruption of this annual festival, by the legal Authorities, has however violentli exasperated a portion of the Protestants (we hope a small portion), whose intemperance ha s carried them so far as not only most grossly to insult the Lord Lieutenant at the Theatre on Saturday night last, but, on the part of some one frantic individual, to commit an act of outrag e against his person which might have deprived him of life ! Some miscreant threw a bottle 3t his Excellency from the gallery, which split no e of the pannels of the box in which his E x cel' lency sat ! Several persons were immediately taken into custody, and it is hoped that th e author.of the outrage will not escape. LORD KENYONe,--111 justice to this amiabl e Nobleman, it is proper to observe that though the late unfortunate 'Evening Paper, entitled TO True Briton, was set up in opposition to TO SuN, the Noble Lord had himself no particiPv tion -in the intended rivalry, but was animated bi the purest political, moral, and religious motives' It is obvious that his mind was above all exPe c ' tation of profit, but that he was fully impressedbf a due sense of the interested and factious degrada' tion of a great part of the Pc BUG PRESS, and soleif anxious for the support of our admirable Consti' tution in Church and State. For this purpos e he gave a 'liberal support to the Paper in goe s ' tion, which, for a short time, was conducted in conformity to his Lordship's commendable pri r ciples and wishes, but soon after was so vacilla t ' ing in its course, and so often opposed t° his Lordship's sentiments, that he had d ee p rev son to regret that he had ever any concern in it. It is much to be lamented that with such laou ° able views, and after such a liberal expend /1 tore, this amiable Nobleman should have been 517 great a sufferer in pecuniary matters ; but it Of operate as a salutary warning to those who f ire inclined to speculate in the origin of Newspape rff l when they reflect that this Nobleman, with al his high character, all his distinguished conoe cl tions, and all his sacrifices, should experien ce O A nothing but disappointment, ingratitude, and - augmented weight' of pecuniary obligations. The Courier of Wednesday contains the arti cle which appeared in the Etoile ; but no o bserc ° ' tion or remark of any kind whatever is m ade en the publication of such . conflicting opinioos - those Paris Journals, which are known 0 6 : 0 , sionally to disclose the views of the French v he vernment. The silence of the Courier is t e , more remarkable, because, on every f or mer iic casion, it appeared anxious to guide pu b 1, opinion. It is true that the Courier has, in 1 40 most every alternate publication for the last i v days, changed its tone : but if such contratiall tion was only the result of the arrival of . 0 0 French Papers with intelligence which was 1 ( consistent with former accounts, the diversiti o l opinion would only prove that the Editor 4 ., 4 taken a superficial view of the posture of foreV affairs.
