FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, JUNE 14.—The pace pretends that they
have discovered a new conspiracy. The fact is, that
they have discovered at the house of an individual
a great quantity of military uniforms resembling
those of the royal guard. These were to be dis-
tributed among the young men of the schools of
medicine and law, whose discontent and exaspera-
tion were well known. The police observes the
most protbtind secrecy on this subject.
The ministry appear to be a little better consoli-
dated. It is almost certain that the right side of
the chamber will vote for the prolongation of the
censorship. In conformity with the wishes of the
Duke of Richelieu, the ministers Portal and La
Tour Maubourg will be the only public servants
removed, and will be succeeded by M. de Villele,
who will take the department of Marine, and the
Duke de Belluno, who will be promoted to that of
war. It is said, that fir s.. Corbieres will be cre-
ated a new department, called that of worship, of
lino nits, and of public instruction. These ate the
only concessions which the ministry is disposed to
make to the ('ole Droit. Unfortunately for them,
M. de Villele and M. deCorbieres refuse their oars,
and seem determined not to accept secondary ap-
pointments.
There is again a talk of sending M. de Chateau-
briand to London to attend the coronation of George
IV. He has formally refused to return to Berlin,—
By conferring upon him this extraordinary mission,
the ministry conceive they would be conceding a fa-
vour to the royalists.
JUNE 16.—Every day we receive news from
Spain, and every day brings us frightful proofs that
a revolution as bloody as ours has begun. The most
complete anarchy reigns in all the provinces; and
this state of things does not affect the government,
which proceeds in its ordinary course, amusing itself
in making fine laws and founding fine institutions,
whilst on all sides the principles of government are
entirely disregarded. The King remains still in the
same exterior situation. General Morillo has sue-

ceeded by his courage and firmness in procuring for
himself all due homage and respect. His Majesty
still continues to protest his attachment to the con-
stitution, while the patriots on the other hand, de-
clare their knowledge of his Majesty's hatred to it.
It is probable that the Cortes will be assembled
in an extraordinary Congress. On the 2d instant
the majority of the King's courtiers unceasingly
beset his Majesty from sunset to midnight, inter-
ceding for pardon for one of the officers of the guard
who was condemned to death for rebellion, and was
to be executed next morning. His Majesty remained
inflexibly bent on the execution of the law, though
his emotion was but too visible.
The Duchess of Orleans died to-night, after a
long and painful illness. She leaves to the Duke
of Orleans two millions and a half of francs of
income.

Yesterday, before mass, the King gave a private
audience to the Count de la Rafitnieres, commander
of the 15th military division. In the afternoon his
Majesty transacted business with the Duke of
Richelieu.

The army of the Germanic Confederation, accord-
ing to the organization settled by the Diet, consists
of 301,637 men.
MADRID, JUNE 8 —The Asia, 74, sailed from
Cadiz on the 31st ult. for Vera Cruz, having on
board General O'Donojo, who has recently been ap-
pointed superior Political Chief of Mexico.
All the militia of New Castile, of La Manchu,
and Estremadura, have received orders to concen-
trate at Alcala de Henares, a town situated about
six leaguts front Me.drid, whence, it is asserted.
they will march into Valencia, Arragon, and Cata-
lonia. This measure is attributed to the disquie-
tude entertained by the government as to the dis.
position of those provinces. It is affirmed that they
have in view to term thernse'ves into a separate
state, as it is their opinion that the royal govern-
ment does not frankly pursue the constitutional
system. _ .

Several letters which have passed between the
General Empecinado and the insurgent chief Me-
rino have been published. The latter having re-
cently taken prisoners a detachment of the royal
troops, whom he caused to be shot, the General me-
naces, that upon a representation of such murder-
Juss: 9 —The circular addressed tra the 3d May,
by the minister of justice, to the right reverend the
archbishops, bishops, and ecclesiastical prelates, se-
cular and regular, of the kingdom, has produced
its effect. The heads of the church publish every
where directions, pastoral letters, and exhortations
to the faithful, to. induce them to observe the con-
stitution and to obey the authorities. The bishop
of Malaga was remarked fiir his frankness. He ter-
minated his exhortation in the following manner,
addressing the priests of his diocese :—" In public
as well as in private endeavour to persuade every
one that it is his duty to observe the laws of the
state, to love these laws, and to respect established
authorities,"
