SPAIN,

Madrid journals of the 16th have been received.
They state that the Spanish Government has decided
on reinforcing the squadron cruizing off the Balearic
islands. It will be composed of eight vessels, mount-
ing together 201 guns. They are now lying in the
Bay of Rosas, and the crews are daily exercised in
firing and other manoeuvres.
The Madrid journals of the 17th have arrived.
Oa the occasion of the file of NAPOLEON on the
15th, a service was celebrated at the French Church
of St. Louis; and in the evening the French Ambas-
sador, General AUPICK, gave a grand banquet at La
Granja, to 22 personages of distinction, amongst whom
were the POPE'S Nuncio, the President of the Council
of Ministers, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs. At
the dessert the Ambassador proposed a toast to " the
Queen and ber beloved daughter ;" and the Minister
of Foreign Affairs gave " The Prince President of
.the French Republic." At night fall the French
Embassy at Madrid was brilliantly illuminated, and
there was a large transparency representing

of the Legion of Honour, and the letters " L N." A
crowd assembled to witness it. an eagle

The Voss GazettG
e, under the head of Vienne, the
19th instant, states that the French Ambassador at
Vienna had, in a conference with the Austrian Mini-
ster for Foreign Affairs, declared in the name of his
Government that it would continue to use every effort
for the maintenance of European peace, and that it
regarded the treaties of 1815 as the condition sine
qua non'of the peace of the world, and the political
equilibrium of Europe. In his turn, says the Voss
Gazette, the Ambassador was assured of the friendly
dispositions of the Northern Powers, and their deter-
mination never to attempt to force any form of go.
vernment upon France.

ITALY.
The Risorgimento of Turin, of the 20th, mentions
some rumours of Ministerial changes in the Sardinian
Cabinet. It is believed that Count Cevouu will re-
turn to power, together with M. RATAZZI, who is
now in Paris. Count Porizs. DI S. MARTINO is
spoken of for the Interior, Chev. VILLAMARINA for
Foreign Affairs, and the Marquis D'AZEGLIO, it is
believed, will remain in the Cabinet without a special
portfolio.

- The Official Savoy Gazette of the 20th announces
the arrest of an Englishman at Verona while in the
act of making sketch of the fortifications of that
town. It adds that after being kept a few days in
prison, be was expelled from the Austrian dominions.
The trial of Advocate GUERRAZZI, late dictator of
Tuscany, commenced at Florence on the 16th. The
court was crowded ; GUERRAZZI, ROMANELLI, and
the other prisoners implicated in the case, attended.
The first sitting was entirely taken up with the read-
ing of the indictment. The first point to be discussed
is the objection started by GUERRAZZI on the incom-
petency of the Court. The number of witnesses
amounts to 370 ; many of those called for the defence
having been rejected. The Court is presided over by
Councillor NERVINI, and Advocate-General Bic-
CHIERAI conducts the prosecution. Professor Mori-
TANELLI's book on the matters which form the subject
of this trial, has caused great sensation at Florence.
It must be recollected thrt the author is implicated in
the case as a defaulter.
The prisoners are eleven in number, viz., Guer-
razzi, Romanelli, Dami, Lottrini, Cimballi, Piccini,
Petracchi, Agostini, Pantanelli, Montazio, Capecchi.
When GUERRAZZI was asked his name and profes-
sion, he answered ; " Advocate, late Minister of the
GRAND DUKE, late deputy, late member of the Pro-
visional Government, and late chief of the Executive
power in Tuscany."
Before the proceedings commenced," the following
protest, which had been sent in by GUERRAZZI, was
read in court.:—

" Having been illegally arrested, and treasonably
kept in prison, and being now taken from prison in
order to appear before the tribunal of the Royal Court,
I declare that I yield to compulsion, as I do not recog-
nise in the said court any right of judging me; all the
laws which regulate the competence of tribunals, and
the order of trials having been completely infringed."
On the morning of the 17th the President of the
Royal Court adjourned the case of GITERRAZEI to the
26th, owing to the bad state of the health of that
person, a violent fit on reading the
pamphlet of M. PnaLil who was governor of Leghorn,
during the revolution of 1849, and who, being
himself at liberty in a foreign country, has pub-
lished a most violent attack against (11 -
UERRAZZa and
his administration.
