STA7'R OF SPAIN.

' The private letters received from Madrid and
'other parts of Spain indicate a better situation of
affairs, together with the prospect of a more speedy
return to the settled habits of a firmly established
Gusernment, 01111 several of the preceding arrivals
from that quarter. They tend to show aloe, that
all the facto relating to Spun', in the French Pu-
pets, have been exaggerated, and that tuauy of
them are wholly false. A letter written by a IDIOM
her of the Cortes. after narrating the manner is
which Venuessa, the King's Chaplain, was put to
death by the populace, proceeds to observe, that
Nladrid, within three hours after that event, woe
as trunquilois if nothing lisd happened; and men-
tions, as a proof of that tranquillity, that tee
King took her usual ride the same aliernoou. A
dreadful story is related from Paris, of the fate of
four monks., in the environs of Armada de Duero;
huh the letters of the Nth from Burgos, which is
not far distrait, are wholly Warta on the subject.
•There is no doubt that a feeling of great animosity
exists, particularly among the army. against those
who are plotting the overthrow of the Constitutional
Goverunieot. it is stated, su a letter horn Maillid
of the 10th, that petitions have beet, received from
the great putt of the regiments to be employed
against the disaffected. The King has greatly di-
tarnished his ut.popularity by a Proclamation„ in
which lie announces thet the title he would prefer
to be hailed by hi. subjects in public, is that a
"Constitutional Kn.g. ' Aria*, the Judge, wits
passed the sentence deemed too lenient ou Veungsses
has hot vehttteed to resappeiie in Madrid. The
letters from Cadiz, Seville, and oilier cities, are of
the same consolatory character as those from Madrid.
• A Madrid paper of the 7th inst. contains Ilse
answer of the Spanish Corte, to the Message of the
Kitig, relative to the murder oh his Chaplain. The
following passages are illustrative of the sentiments
of that assembly no this event :--
" The Corte. have 'rained sal) the saute grief
as your Majesty, the crime committed by certain
iudividuals, who, overthrowing the authority tif the
laws, deprived of life a criminal placed under their
safeguard and protection.

" The Cortes on their part, restrained by
habits to the functions of a legislative body,
have given proofs to your Majesty of their ardent
desire to remove whatever ottsinties might be up-
posed to the Irce and uonsterrupted course or jus-
tice; and whenever called upon by the Govern-
ment to assist in any object within the sphere of
their lawful prtwer, they will anxiously hasteu to
promote the end desired.
" Your Majesty beit►g.coovinced that these are
the sentiments of your Cortes, and being intimately
united with them so the preservation of the eoustt-
tutiott of the mona►chy, all efforts of any clues of
doniestm enemies whatever will be .useless; and with
re.pect to our foreign enemies, erety day's expe-
rience readers at inure certain that they sill out
pretend to interfere in our internal afrairs. The
prudent find well-sea.ulated conduct shown by
your filajesty'r ttttt ent in their diplutu.,tic
re-
lattuns wills other countries, ca iiiiii t base inspired
them wills any motives of enmity or distrust. 'the
internal stare of the monarchy, notwithstanding
the int nimble disquietude that lulluws a political
change, cannot furnish even the sl,giiiest preiext
for threatening our independence. For these rrs.
soils the Cortes du not believe shut a private and
isolatrd action, however criminal and calanitious it
Wily appear, can lessen 'lmpart reputation that we
have It:gulled with other naiions by our political
regeneration; ►once even the most highly
cued, its circumstances far less critical, and that
