THE S ETN, LONDON, THURSDA Y, LSTOVEMBER 28, i 839.

this faithful principality and its gallant royal army
are placed have determined " our Sovereign the
KING" to relieve Lieutenant-General the Count
D'ESPAGNE from the command of this army and
the Presidency of the Junta, and to appoint Field
Marshal JOSE SEGARRA as his successor in these
two offices.

The Junta boasts afterwards very much of what
is yet to be achieved for Don CARLOS and Spain
by his and their means. They will, like their
countrymen in general, however, boast more than
they will perform. The co-ruling Junta of Cer-
vara, however, declares that it will accept peace
on no other terms than those which will seat their
legitimate King on his throne.

Madrid papers of the 19th inst. have just been
received. They represent the Ministers as bent
upon following out the arbitrary system which they
adopted when they advised the dissolution of the
Cortes. It was hinted that they had determined to
have recourse to a series of Royal Ordinances to
command the payment of taxes—to gag the press
—and, in fact, to employ the army to carry out the
coercive measures of the Executive. All officials
suspected of favouring the views of the Exaltados
were to be changed, and their places filled up by
partizans of the Ministry. The Eco assures us
that the most extraordinary measures were taken to
prevent an outbreak among the citizens. The sen-
tries were doubled, and numerous bodies of troops
stationed within and around the capital. But not-
withstanding the efforts of the Government, the cities
of Cordova, Grenada, Cadiz, Seville, Murcia, and
Alicant, adhered to their first resolution not
to pay taxes, and those places where taxes were
not refused resolved to remit them direct to Es-
PARTErtO for the maintenance of the troops en-
gaged against the Carlists. This must bring on
a dreadful financial crisis, if not actually pro-
duce—what we much fear it will—another re-
, volution.

ESPARTERO was on the 17th, at Mas de las
Matas, his division occupying their old position.
It was rumoured that CASTELLATE had surren-
dered to the Queen's troops. ESPARTERO had
puhlished a second, order of the day revoking the
greater part of the former order for the expulsion
of the Carlist families from their homes, and
sending them to perish under the walls of IVlo-
rella and Cantavieja.

The following Royal decree for regulating the
election of deputies for the Basque Provinces, ap-
pears in the Madrid Gazette of the 19th inst.,
being the third day after it received the Royal sig-
nature :

":ROTAL DECREE.
" Art. 1. The provinces of Biscay, Alava, and Gui-
puzcoa will proceed with the meetings of their Juntas,
and the nominations of their respective deputations ; to
adopt measures for their internal administration, and the
prompt execution of the law of the:2sth of last October;
proceeding in all without prejudice to the constitutional
unity of the monarchy, as it is stated in that law. The
Juntas will meet in those places established by custom
or the fueros.

" Art. 2. The political chiefs now in power in Gui-
puzcoa and Biscay shall remain as political corregidors,
with the attributes (not judicial) conferred by the
fueros, laws, and customs on those who fill these offices
in the provinces.

" Art. 3. The election of Senators and Deputies for
the Cortes shall take place in the three provinces in the
manner prescribed by the laws for the rest of the mo-
narchy. The provincial deputations, elected by direct
measures, shall be kept up, but their jurisdiction shall be
confined to this question. This integral renewal shall
be proceeded with in order that the people dispersed by
circumstances and war shall be enabled to take part
therein.

" Art. 4. The province of Navarre Shall appoint, in
the menner established for the provincial deputations, a
deputation of seven, which was the former number of
Deputies from this kingdom. Each bailiwick shall ap-
point a Deputy. The two others shall be appointed by
the bailiwicks containing the largest population. The
attributes .of the deputation shall be the same as those
given by the fitcros to the deputations of the kingdom
—those which may be compatible with the attributes
conferred by the general law on provincial deputations,
and those of administration ad interim Government,
which belonged to the Council of Navarre, without pre-
judice to the constitutional unity, as is said in the afore-
said law of October 25.

•' Art. 5. The election of Senators and Deputies for
the Cortes shall be carried MI in Navarre in the form
prescribed by the general laws for the rest of the Pe-
ninsula.

" Art. 6. The renewing of the municipality shall be
effected in the four provinces in the manner prescribed
by the fueros and custom. The newly-elected munici-
palities shall commence their duties on the Ist January,
1840. The nomination of the Alcades shall be carried
on gratis in Navarre by the Viceroy.
" Art. 7. The Basque provinces, in their general
juntas, and Navarre, by their new deputation, shall
appoint two or more Deputies, with whom the Gover-
nor can confer, for the better execution of Art. 2of
the law of the 25th of October.

" Art. 8. As is stated in the aforesaid law, if any
doubts arise as to the execution, the Government may
be consulted with, through the medium of the superior
authorities of the competent department.
" Given at our Palace, Nov. 16, 1839.
(Signed) " The QUEEN REGENT.
(Countersigned) " LORENZO ARRAZOLA,
" Ad interim Minister of the Interior."

There is very little news in the Paris Journals
of Wednesday. The Duke of ORLEANS had
arrived in Paris in excellent health, to the great
joy of the Royal Family. M. BERENGER, the
lawyer, has changed his mind about the Peerage,
which he renounced so indignantly. He now ac-
cepts the " honour," and the electoral college of
Valence has been ordered to elect a Deputy in his
room.

M. Armand Marrast, who was condemned to death
by the Court of Peers, had fled to England, and went
subsequently to Barcelona, has been given up by the
Madrid Government, on the demand of the French
Ambassador.

The American packet Burgundy arrived at Havre
from New York in 16} days. She sailed on the Bth.
The papers by the Burgundy had not arrived at Paris
on Tuesday.

a collection or songs, which were very agreeably set to
music by his brother Ernest.
AMSTERDAM, Nov. 95.=-w-ilia Majesty has been
pleased to admit Mr. H. D. L. Ellinkhery, sen. ns
British Vice Consul of the port of Zealand,

The market in Dutch Stock was firm to-day, and the
prices of all descriptions remained the same as yesterday.
East India Five per Cents rose to per cent., in
consequence of soma purchases. Shares in the Commercial
Company were likewise better, and without much busi-
ness being done, were t per cent. higher than yesterday.

BRUSSELS, Nov. 23.—The King will leave Wies-
baden in the middle of next week and return to L; e'ten
on Saturday the 30th November. The letters from
Hamburg contain an important piece of news. It is
affirmed that one of the first mercantile houses of that
city will open a credit of 10 millions of marks Banco for
the Bank of London.

The Chamber of Representatives isconvoked for Tues-
day the 26th, to hear the Report of the Central Section
in the Budget of Ways and Means.
A letter from Liege to the Independent announces
that an inhabitant of that city has lately become a
Member of the German Confederation. The Count
de Lanno -Ludekerke, nephew of Count de Looz,
Prince of Rhine-Waldeck, has just succeeded his uncle
n the sovereignty of Waldeck. There were
claimants to the succession, but the supreme tribunal at
Munster has decided in favour of our fellow citizen,
Count de Lannoy, who is according,y declared Prince
of Rhine-Waldeck, and Member of the German Confe-
deration. Those who know Count Lannoy will hear
with pleasure this sudden and unexpected accession of
fortune (a subsequent account corrects an error in the
above). Count L nnoy has been recognised as heir to
the Principality of Rhine-Waldeck, allotted as an in-
demnity to Count de Looz ; but that principality is
mediatised, and therefore gives no rank in the German
Confederation.

VIENNA, Nov. 17.—Prince Paul Esterhazy is very
shortly expected back front London. A Transylvanian
paper announces, under the head of Gallacz, Oct. 21,
that the steam-boat Galatea had brought the news from
Silistria, and the plague had broken out in the village of
Babeck, some leagues from that town, and had carried
off eleven persons before any official information could
be given.

MO NEY AND COMMERCIAL N EWS

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The delivery of the letters and papers by the Post-
office were very late this morning, no doubt owing to
the roads being heavy in consequence of the incessant
rain.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, WEDNESDAY.—We
continue to have a dull market for Cotton to-day, the
sales are 3,000 bags, the prices without any positive de-
cline, and have a tendency downwards.
A memorial to the Right Honourable the Secretary
for Foreign Affairs, from the merchants, &c. and others
concerned in the trade with the river Plate, now
lies in the Liverpool Exchange Room for signature.
The object the merchants have in view is to call the at-
tention of the Government to the blockade of Buenos
Ayres, and recent landing of a French armed force at
Monte Video.

The Batavier steamer has arrived, bringing the Dutch
papers of the 26th November. Dutch prices—Two-
and-a• Half per Cents., 511 to 0-16 ; Five per Cents.,
981 ; Arduin's Spanish, 23 5-16.
We have received the Journal of Antwerp of the
27th inst., which gives the Belgian Budget for the year
1840. 'lle expenses for the year 1840 amount to,
according to the Government statement, the sum of

101,312,335 f. 94c. By the above expose it is
easy to perceive that we must not expect any reductions
of consequence in the future Budgets.
The recounts from Amsterdam state that money is
very easy at 4} per cent. The Five per Cents. come
per cent. higher, and the Two-and-a-Half per Cents.
per cent. lower.

On the 12th of November the winter set in at St.
Petersburg ; the communication with the various parts
of the town was interrupted by the floating ice.

Our arrivals this morning are few in number. The
Continental intelligence chiefly relates to the affairs of
the East. It now appears that the differences between
Egypt and Turkey are on the point of being adjusted,
as both parties seem to agree with the proposed plan
of the allied Powers for a reconciliation.

THE FUNDS.
The accounts from the Peninsula are net of a fa-
vourable nature. The Spanish bondholders have ra•
ther become alarmed, and the Spanish Active con-
tinues heavy this morning ; opened at 233-4, and has
receded to 23i. Consols opened at the leaving off
prices of yesterday, 904 Money, 91-a a for the 16th
January ; Exchequer Bilis, 7 5 dis. ; Bank Stock, 178
179 ; India Stock, 251 252.

Spanish Active at present 23i ; Portuguese 311 ;
Three per Cents. 214 a ; Brazilian 7E 73 ; Co-
lombian 291 ; Mexican 294 1 ; Belgian 1001
1011 ; Spanish Passive 5i Deferred 10i ; Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 5211 ; Five per Cents. 98k.
This being pay-day in the British Market for the
balance of the accounts of yesterday, the brokers and
jobbers arc chiefly employed in paying and receiving
their differences.

The settling of the Foreign Account, which takes
place to-morrow, will be a heavy one in Spanish, and
some fears are entertAned that it will not be so easily
adjusted as was anticipated.
