TILE INSURRECTION IN SPAIN.
MADRID, Dee. 12, Rvneixo.
General Caballero de Rods has declared the
blockade of Cadiz, and the Spanish Minister of
Foreign Affairs has notified the same to the
foreign representatives at Madrid.
Yesterday evening the members of the Republican
Committee had an interview with the President of
the Provisional Government,and introduced Senores
Figneras and Castelar, requesting at the same
time that the republicans should have a share in the
administration of the country as a means of
putting a stop to the insurrection at Cadiz.
Marshal Serrano and Admiral Topeto replied that
the government was chosen by universal suffrage,
and that it would therefore present itself before
the Cortes as it was at first constituted. They
moreover declared that no compromise could be
entertained with the insnrgents of Cadiz, who,
after having submitted in silence to former mis-
government, now took arms against a government
which has conferred upon them all civil and
political liberties.
MADRID, Dile. 13.
General Caballero de Rods has transmitted to
e government a communication received by him
'from the Duke de Montpesuier, in which the
latter announced that, on being apprised of the
events at Cadiz, he had left Lisbon to offer his
sword to the Provisional Government. The go-
vernment, in reply, expressed respect for the in-
ventions of hie royal highness, but requested him
'to return immediately to Lisbon. Yesterday morn-
ing General Caballero de Rode addressed the fol-
, lowing proclamation to the inhabitants of Cadiz :
—" A revolution, incited and fomented by secret
'enemies, is deluging with blood the streets of your
• beautiful city, but has found no echo in the
peninsula, and I come to suppress it with the forces
. placed at my disposal by the govensment. Lay
down your arms and your lives will ho Hayed ; this
I guarantee you in the name of the government, on
whose chimney you may rely. Such is the only
-means by which the insurgents can sweats• being
treated with inflexible rig our. I grant you a
delay until to-morrow at noon, in order that
the old men, women and children, as well an
all i>caceably-disposed citizens, may leave the town.
Inhabitants of Cadiz, it will not be my fault if,
with the means of attack which the imperious law
of necessity compels me to employ, there should
come for Cadiz a day of mourning and ruin. I
shall regret such a reenalt from the bottom of my
heat, but shall do my duty." This proclamation
produced an impression upon the insurgents, and
they sent a delegate, aceompaniesl by the Consul
of the United States, to General Caballero, offer-
ing to place their arms in buildings which be
should designate. General Caballero de Rode
expects to enter Cadiz to-day.

PARK DFE. 12, Ey/mm.l.
The Journal des Damits of to-day Antos that a
rumour is current that the equadronof Toulon has
received orders to proceed to Cadiz.
PARTS, DEC. 13.
The Meniteur of this morning publishes in its
bulletin the following news :—" The fighting at
Cadiz has been renewed on the expiration of the
armistice, of which the foreign residents availed
thenuelves to leave the town."

TUE RELATIONS BETWEEN PRUSSIA
AND FRANCE.
BREMEN, Dec. 12.
The Weser Zeitung publishes advices from Berlin,
according to which it is asserted in diplomatic
steles that the Wish Government is asavour-
ing in a confidential manner to establish better
relation between Prussia and France, without how-
ever making positive proposals for such purpose.

TURKEY AND GREECE.
ST. PETERSBURO, DISC. 12.

The journals of this city publish intelligence
from Constantinople, which states that, in conse-
quence of energetic action on the part of the
Russian Ambassador, France England, and
Prussia represented to the Sublime Porte that the
severe measures it purposed taking endangered
the preservation of peace. They thereby induced
the Porte to delay for a few days the final rupture
with the Greek government. The Russian Am-
bassador is employing every means in his power
to prevent diplomatic intercourse from being
broken off, or, at all events, to obtain that the
commercial relations between Turkey and Greece
shall not be suddenly interrupted. According to
the same intelligence Turkey is concentrating
40,000 men in Thessaly, to invade Greece in ease of
the outbreak of war.
