Forther elviees have been received from Conm-
•na, which demonstrate that this city, the capital (in
the suspended claims of Santiago) of the province,
is assuming its due rank as the seat of the eonstitn.
tion.ll authority, and that its supremacy is already
acknowled be some of the principal towns of Gali- I
cia, among which is Santiago itself, the ancient
capit.d. We bare seen a printed address to the peo.
pie of Coranna, sig led by Don Pedro de Agar, the
President of the newly formed Junta, infortning
them that he had received a deputation from the
mini ipal authorities of Ferrol, to acquaint him,
rt an official manner, that the inhabitants of Ferrol,
together with the troops xvithiii the place, had spon-
taneously thllowed the example set them orunna
in proel liming the constitution of the Spanish mo-
narehy with all tine solemnity,. and that constitu-
tional authorities had been appointed. The further
object of the deputation in waiting on M. Agar was
to place themselves under the jurisdiction of the
Junta of Corunna. The President also informs his
fellow-citizens, that be had received a deputation
from Santiago), consisting of three members of the
noiiitary college, and one of the heads of the uni
versity, who waited on him, in the name of the
respective bud;es to which they belonged, to inform
him of a similar determination with ,Ferrol, in
which the inhabitants and the military coincided,
and to solicit from the lunta of Comtism the pre-
sence of one of the officers cotnpositig it, in order
that the ceremony of proelaimher the constitution,
hi appointing authorities, might be conducted in a
niter suitable to the occasion.

Extrect of the news from Madrid of the Bth of
March :—The King having on the sth of this
m aid' written to the different Councils, established
by the decree of the preceding evening, to present
to him without delay their advice on the measures
proper to be adopted, all these bodies concluded thr
a prompt convocation of the Cortus. The Council
of Slate was assembled on the 6th, and the same
wish was expressed by it. On the 7th, in the morn-
ing, a Gazette Extraordinary was published, to and
nonce the following decree:—

" My Royal Council and Calculi of State having delibera-
ted on the advantage which the assembling of the Cortes might
pinduce tor the welfare of the monarchy ; participating in their
opinion, and finding it ciwfinnusble to the fundamental laws,
the maintenance of a. hilt I have sworn. I order that the Cortes
s'iall be immediately evseuibl,4l. For this pc pose, the Council
a'iopt the measure, which it may judge t cat suited fot res.
!icing my int,ntion, and in order that the legitimate Represents-
ti of my people may be he ird, after they have been turnished
with the thee'sary powers omfonnable to these measures. Every
thing which the general welfare requires being thus granted, they
will find me ready to do what the interest of the state and the
happiness of the people, who have given me so many proofs of
th.sr lovalty, may requite. The Council will give me its opinion
on the doubts which ought impede the attainment of this object,
in order that neit:,er difficulty nor delay may atise in the execu-
tion of the decree."
The same (lay, at ten in the evening, the princi-
pal authorities received the following communication
which appeared in an Extraordinary Gazette, pub-
lished at eight in the morning ;
