THE- NATIOVAL REG

Ministers. were delivered on the 6th. A report was
at first spread that the Ruitsittn note was less mode-
rate than those of the other Powers ; but it was
stxm learned that the notes were common to the
three Cabinets
The Spanish Ministers have referred the notes a
France and the three Powers to the Council of State,
in order to have the opinion of that body on the an-
swers to be given to these notes—answers which
will 'te well considered, and will give a fresh proof
of the excellent spirit which animates the men now
at the head of affairs in Spain. It appears that the
Council of State is to join to itself a certain number
of the Deputies of the Cortes taken from the parties
who exhibit the different shades of opinion remarked
in thot assembly. The attitude of the Ministry and
of the Cortes create in the people of Spain a feeling
of confidence and security, which does equal honour
to the Ministers and to the Congress as to the na-
tional character. Every one is perfecly satisfitl that
that the replied of the Cabinet of Madrid will be so
framed as to preserve uninfringed the dignity of
' Spain, at the same time that they will, by their mo-
deration, remove all. pretext for hostilities, which
Spaniards will always be ready to repel, but which
they are far from meaning to provoke.
The Municipality has addressed a fresh repre-
sentation respecting the authors of the conspiracy of
the 7th of July, and their accamplices. In this
writing the municipality recites the measures which
it has taken to forward the course of justice against
these individuals; and it also reminds his Majesty,
that it was only upon receiving a formal promise
that the traitors should be punished, that the militia
consented to separate and retire to their homes on
the 12th of July. The address concludes with a
prayer that the King will command the proceedings
which have been commenced against the conspirators
of the month of July to be conducted with activity.
representation of a similar purpose was made by
the Landaburian society on the sth, upon the motion
of General Itiego, who said the rigour of justice
ought not only to visit those individuals who have
been placed tinder arrest, but also those who have
hitherto escaped all molestation.
The regiment of the cavalry of Aiming*, which
condutced itself so gloriously on the 7th of July,
has departed from Madrid. On the dsy previous
to its departure, in the square of Reeollets. After
the review, the soldiers demanded with loud cries
to be led to the square of the Constitution. Having
arrived there, they surrounded the stone of the
Constitution, and renewed their oaths to die in de-
fence of their country, and the laws which they
enjoy under the Constitution. The air resounded
with cries of " The Nation ! the Constitution ! the
National Congress, and the heroic people of
Madrid! the Constitution or death !"
Our journals continue to be filled with relations
of the operations of the constitutional forces des-
patched in pursuit of the factions. The troops of
General Torrijos and Mimi have been particularly
mentioned as haviiig made the enemies of the con-
stitution suffer considerable losses. The latter are
pursued in all directions, and are not permitted to
have a moment of repose in any place. A curate
and two other leaders of rebellious bands have been
arrested in Biscay. The constitutional troops exhibit
the same activity in Arragon. The fortress of
M:quinenza is closely blo:kaded.
The measures for enforsing the levy which has
been decreed by the Cortes are conducted every-
where with regularity, and, in many of the pro-
. vinces, with enthusiasm. Eight hundred recruits
have set out from I%,ladrid to join the army. Similar
detachments are on their march in all the provinces
for the same destination. They sing patriotic songs,
in passing through towns.

Ativices from Rio de Janeiro to the 81st October
were re.•eived on Saturday. On account of the re-
luctance of the Emperor to sanction some new mea-
sures proposed by the Ministers, they had all ten-
dered their resignations, which were accepted. The
persons however applied to to succeed them, hay-
ing all declined office, and memorials for their resto-
ration having been seat in by the citizens, the old
Ministers, after only two days absence from power,
were all reinstated in their functions. A procla-
mation, dated the 28th of October, had been issued
at Rio de Janeiro by the Emperor, avowing the
intention to disdains all connexion or union with
Portugal, unless within four months the indepen-
dence of Brazil is acknowledged.
The Archbishop of Canterbury was attacked sud-
denly when on a journey into Nottinghamshire, on
a visit to his sister, accompanied by his lady and
daughters. He was taken ill at Alconburv-hill, in
Huntingdonshire, and the attack was so alarming,
that his Grace did not proceed on his journey,but
returned to Eaton, in Bedfordshire. His Grace

gentlemen of that place accompanied the Atchbishop

day last. H:s Grace was pronounced out of danger
