The tazette de France,. upon the authority of
private letters from Madrid, dated oie the evening
of the 7th inst. states, that the King of SPAIN
had at length decided upon acceptiug the resigns•
tion of those Ministers who have long solicited to
be relieved from their prole-friars. Their suc-
cessors are not designated; it is only said, that the
most experienced in the Ministerisl Departments
will transact business with the KING, until hr can
find persons willing to take upon themselves func-
tions so little to he desired in the present disturbed
state of that kingdom. The Ktno has already
sacrificed largely to his obstinacy, and now if the
account of the death of limo°, and of the subse-
quent declaration of independence by Catalonia,
which is given in another part of our Paper, prove
correct, it is hardly to be expected that this tardy
concession to the expressed wishes of the Cottes
and the people of Spain will have the effect of
restoring confidence in the Government sod tran-
quillity to the nation.
These papers contain pretty nearly the usual
quantity of reports respecting the movements, ac-
tual or probable, of the Turks and Rusisians, and
the intentious of their respective Governments.
We are told in one sentence that the hostile
armies are approaching the common boundary of
their empires, and that every thing announced the
immediate commencement of hostilities. Another
paragraph, however, assures us, that the Turks bad
begun to evacuate Wallachia and Moldavva, sad
thence we should anticipate a final adjustment of
all the subsisting differences. We are almost
tempted to make a vow against taking any further
notice of such conflicting statement., and to wait
with patience the slow movements of Turkish
diplomacy.

Flanders Mails hove arrived with Pape's to the
18th instant. They contain various details of the
progress of the war between the 'Forks arid Greeks.
none of which are of importance. Greece is how
resorted to by adventurers of ■ll nations, some full
of military ardour, and animated with a love of
liberty, sod others in espeetstion of improving
their fortunes.

A letter received from Spain, we regret tai
state. communicates the death of the celubicaACti
Riga°, the champion of Spanish liberty. it is
ascribed to poison, and the Priests are charged as
the authors of this foul deed. The hopes which
they conceived from it have, however, been disap-
pointed, and it has had a quite contrary effect. As
soon as the melancholy event became generally
known the whole of Catalonia declared itself free.

Letters from Multi to the 20th of December
state, that the GovCrnment of the island had issued
• proclamation, prolubitiug the exportation of war-
like stores or amino nitioo. The brig Nymph, which
arrived a few days before from London, with musket►
and 400 barrels of gunpowder on hoard, was laid
under an embargo; but as her cargo tars origivally
intended for Constantinople, it was supposed she
would be suffered to proceed. The only cousequeoce
of the prohibition would be to transfer all the trade
in the articles comp►ehended in it to Genoa and
Leghorn, where no such impediment existed. This
measure was extremely unpopular with the British
merchants resident in Malta, who were looking with
some degree of hope to the removal of old restric-
tions, rather than uoticipating new obstacles to their
declining commerce. Sir T. MAITI.IND arrived
there ■ few days befire from Corfu. Ile has desired
the principal aterchauts of Matta to submit to him
their opinion respecting the continitairce of the um-
nopoly iu corn, together with the grounds on which
that opinion was formed. A report was current that
this branch of the trade of the island will be thrown
open in June next.

TRADE TO MEXICO LAID OPEN.—By letters
from the Himmel) dated the 11th ult., received in
Glasgow this morning, we learn, that a brig of war
had jipt arrived at the former place, which briugs
the important advice* that the following intro of
Mexico, viz. Vera Cruz, Tampico, Alvarado, ou the
east coast, Acapialcriaitrl St. Bias on the west enlist,
had been declared oven to foreign commerce. The
dirties on imports by foreigners were fixed at •2;, tier
cent. and by Spvinerils (native►) 13 per cent. Ihe

to the discovery of great irregularities, and to some
