I,ONIX/N. MONDAY, FiIitUARY 16, 1624.

The ('aria Journals of Friday, with the Floile of Satyr;
day's date, reached our office last night. The Manikin%
in its official part, contains no intelligence of interest ; and
the other papers are almost as barren. What little news
they give ua from the Peninsula, only tends to 'thew that
the Government of Ferdinand will not relax in its rigo-
bus measures, until it is absolutely eonipelled to do so.
Ilse Spanish War Minister has rc-organized the corps of
royal Carabincers, which, it will be remembered, was
disbauded by the Cartes : great care, it seems, has been
'oaken to exclude from this hotly all those soldiers who
have served under the Comaitutional flag. It has been re-
peatedly stated, that the Allied Powers have formally
protested against niany of the acts of the Spanish
Ministers. The band of associated despots (declared
enemies, as they are, to all liberal government), were
wise enough to perceive that the only chance of main-
tabling an absolute King in the Peninsula was by pursoltig
measures of apparent moderation. For some time their
nernonstrancea were unheeded, but the first effect of their
throats has at length !thew!' ittelf in the suppression of the
Rettarrudar, the violent royalist journal, which was prin-
cipally supported by the bigott-1 clergy : we also learn
that the Apostolic Junta is to be dissolved. This body
was composed of two deputies from each of the chapters of
the kingdoms, and its despicable and tyrannical interfer-
MCe in public affairs is well known. Private letters state,
that it had taken refuge in Valladolid, after its retreat from
Madrid. These measures prove must satisfactorily that
Ferdinand and his Ministers are in a dangerous situation.
Weed, the intelligence from the provinces speak of armed
bodies of Constitutionalists being in the field, and that the
Majority of the population in the towns through which
they passed had taken part with them. In the latter end of
las month a considerable band of these troops, which was
between Andalusia and Extremadura moved upon C'iudatl
heal (In La Mancha), where, after forcing the royalist
tromps to retire, they re/Asa-it the stone of the Constitu-
tion. Gathering strength as it proectsled, the column pur-
sued their opponents an far as Manaanares, where it also
replaced the constitutional stone. The news of these
proceedings was conveyed to Madrid by express, where it
crested a deep and anxious sensation in the departments of
Government. The decree of amnesty, so long talked of,
is still promised.
