CUANIBER OF DEPUTIES, JAWVARY 31.

The Bureaux will continue to-morrow the exa-
mination c“itimenced to-day, of the project of the
law relative to the expenditure. The bad state of
the Count Decazes' health, will probably defer for
some days the presentation or the new project of
law relative to the elections.

Eighteen new Petitions have been referred to the
Committee. The most remarkable is one from the
Sieur Savory, formerly an officer in the royal ar-
mies (JUL,. Vendee, praying the Chambe► to sup-
plicate the king, that emigrants be invited to
sanction the sale tif their property, for the purpose
of removing every pretext fur factious agitation.
He declares that for his own part he will sanction
the sale of his property.

We have received Cadiz Journals of the Bth,
gth, sad 10th of January. The following is a
literal translation of what they contain relative to
the insurrection of the troops:—

" PROCLAMATION.
tt HIROIC INIUBITANTI or CAD'S !—A small number
of misled soldiers, unworthy the Spanish name, have sought
to disturb the public tranquillity, by arrogation the power
of imposing laws apes their Prince, and forgetting the fide-
lity they have sworn to him. Their audacity will not fail
to be punished as it deserves by the faithful 'objects of the
King, who actively unite its the environs of Utrera, and
will quickly presents force far superior to that of the revo-
lutionists, organised upon principles MM. 'military, and led
by experienced Chief*, firm and of distinguished reputation.
I hope that you will learn with satiasetiom the defeat of the
insurgeuts, of which the acetsaut nay M momentarily ex-
pected ; bat in the mean lime the interest of each, the good
of all, the honour that belongs to this illostrions city, and
the preservation of the good cipitsion that it holds, all re-
quire stew proofs of moderation; obedience, and tranquillity.
Repose within the bosoms of your families, and be assured
that others watch over your safety. Every thing is prepared,
sad the entanies of tranquillity shall not realise their pro-
jects. The Goventanent, which unites all jurisdictions by
reason of circa =stances, w ill neglect no proceeding to fillet its
duties towards the King and you ; it demands of you to COSI.

every toconeenience which any arise to prove that you he.

PARIS, JANUARY SI.

After mass yesterday, which his Majesty heard
in his apartments, he received • great number of
General Officers and public functionaries.
We have received letters from Cadiz of the 4th,
7th, and 11th of January. We have also received
letters from Madrid to the date of the 40t1:.
Tho►e from Cadiz of the 4th and 7th contain the
details which we have already given. Those of the
1 ith announce that General Michilena, sit the head
of some battalions of Gumlalajar and Catalonia, is
in march by Ulso, to form a junction with General
Cruz, who is at Carmona with • division of 10,000
men ; that General Ferree, with two squadrons of
cavalry, will join them on that point, mid that Ge-
neral Freyre is proposing to march upon the insur-
gents with the carbineers.
Nine hundred troops of the line have arrived at
Cadiz, and joined those of the marine. A bat-
talion of the regiment of Valeucay is expected
every moment, which has been called in from
Ayamotite, where it was in garrison. The land
forces received two real, a day, and the marine
have received two mon;lis pay. The mititary ma-
rine is in the best state. On the news of the first
movement of the insurgent troops, all the arms
and provitions on board the transports destined for
America, were put on board the ships of war which
immediately bent their mils. The insurgents have
for their Commander-in-Chief, Col. Quiroga, who
commanded the regiment of Catalonia. It is
he who had the Nliiiister of Marine, M. De
Cisnoras, arrested at Saint Ferdinand.
An English brig of war has been cruising since
the 6th opposite the port of Satiti-Petri.
The post of Corte-dura, which repulsed the
insurgents when they attempted to surprise Cadiz,
is DOW secure from all possible attacks.
The Governor of Cadiz has addressed • Procla-
mation to the insurgent soldiers. He recalls them
to their duty, and offers them pardon in the name
of the King. These offers of pardon, supported
by vigorous dispositions, ceplain wl►y there has been
no engagement since the attack of Corte-dun, near
Cadiz. The city of Cadiz enjoys perfect tranquillity.
—The letter from Madrid of the 20th January,
announces that the Government directs all its dis.
posable forces towards the Ide of Leon : it is there,
in fact, the heart of tl►e insurrection has been con-
centrated from the beginning. General O'Donnel,
brother of the Count D'Abisbal, after having raised
the camp at Saint Roch, is arrived at AIM* de los
Gerbils, with the regiments of the Prince and of
America. General O'Laelor was on the 13th at
Ronda, and was on. the 13th to roceed to Ante-
goers, the head-quarters 'of Ow/Jimmy. Getters!
Freyre was still at Seville on the Bth. He had
with him 3,000 men. and expected 4.000 with soon

It was announced on the 13111, that the Royalists
were at port Santi-Marie.
The officer who repulsed the insurgents in the at-
tack on Corte-dura. has written from Cadiz on the
Fah, to Madrid, that it was slow impossible to at-
tempt a passage at low water, without a sacrifice of
4.000 men.

The letter from Madrid concludes thus:—
" None of the people of Csdiz have appeared dis-
posed to take part in the insurrection. The
Royal marine is unshaken in its fieirlily."

‘Ve have said that we have received direct intel-
ligence from Cadiz. of the date of the Iltlt. A
letter from Madrid of the 9.oth, inserted in The
(.'orlititationel, states the receipt of letters of the
13th, in that capital from Cadiz. The same Jour•
nal announces, however, that the Moniteur has em.

the honour of leaving their names to inquire after
the Sovereign, as well as real numben of others,
including several of tbqgpociety of Friends, com-
monly called Qeakers, making their anxious and
dutiful inquiries. The Physicians were, as usual,

We this day prnent to our readers. correct copyl
of the important correspondence that took place
between the Prince of WALES sud Mr. PEACEVAL.I

of his late MAJESTY'S lamented indisposition, his

to be reminded that when the exercire of the

functions was suspended by the dreadful calarniti
which befel our late good and gracious lilac, the
Ministers of the Crown had the daring temerity to i
keep the throne unoccupied, to usurp the *huh'
