LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

INSURRECTION AT MADRID.

STATE OF THE COUNTRY.

The Morning Post has the following :
" We have to announce the outbreak of a formida-
ble insurrection in Madrid.

" The populace were on Monday night in arms,
and there wu sharp fighting in the streets between
the insurgents and the troops.
" At 10 o'clock yesterday morning the fighting
continued; but, up to that time, the Queen's troops,
under Marshal O'Donnell, retained possession of the
city, and continued to make head against the rebels.
" The insurgents proclaim a Republic.
" It is not known where Esparta° la."

A rumour was current all yesterday in Paris that
Espartero's ministry was at an end, and the absence
of any telegraphic news from Madrid led to the belief
that private despatches must have been kept back.
The important fact of Espartero's retirement
was made known by the government journals
of yesterday evening. The Pays says :—" A grave
event was consummated yesterday in Spain.
Marshal Espartero and the other ministers
have offered their resignation, to the Clasen,
and her Majesty has accepted them. Marshal
O'Donnell is charged to form a new cabinet. A
' private telegraphic despatch brings us the list of the
' new ministry, as it was composed in the earliest
moments of the crisis. It was aa follows :

Manhal O'Donnell (Minister at
War)
Canton
Rios Rams
Collado
Pastor Dias . .. ....
Roe de Olano
The Portfolio of Justice remains vacant."

Bat it appears that this combination was imme-
diately modified, and in a very different spirit. his
said that M. La:crisp was called to the Ministry of
Grace and Justice, and M. Bayuri to that of the
Marine, in the plus of General Roe de Olano. It is
known that M. Lusuriaga, whose name is respected
by all parties, is the intimate Mend of the Duke of
Victoria, and that he was Minister for Foreign Af-
fairs in his cabinet before General Um's. As to M.
Bayarrl, the secretary of the Constituent Assembly,
he reprements in the bureau of the Cortes the parlia-
mentary properties who have always rallied round
Eepartero.
The liedepaadonee Belo of yesterday says that
common rumour attributes the ministerial changes
at Madrid to the influence of the French govern-
mat. A letter in the same journal, dated Madrid,
July 10, gives a sad picture of the state of the
country. The writer says :
