“tDECREE.

" The sad scenes which have taken place in the capital
of the principality of Catalonia have had a great effect on the
people, who have succeeded, in spite of the dangers which sur-
rounded them, in planting the tree of true liberty, by the es-
tablishment of a popular Government. This Government,
persuaded that one of its first duties is to endeavour to prevent
a recurrence of similar horrors, has, in consequence, decreed—
" Article 1. General Parreno, and the civil authorities,
which, of his own accord, he established in January last, are
declared guilty of high treason, and condemned ro death.
" 2. The Commander of the Artillery, who attacked the
Town-hall in the night of the 4th inst., is liab!e to the same
penalty.
" 3. Every man, from the age of 16 to 50, is a soldier,
and as such liable to give assistance to the Provisional Go-
vernment.

" 4. Evcry s;iati enlist uotlw. the 1148 vi l,~uity
shall receive bof. bounty, and if. 50c. per day.
" 'b. The leaders of the Christine detachments who are

scouring the principalities will continue to fulfil the functions
of their present rank, and will be entitled to promotion to su-
perior rank if, by the 15th inst., they shall have taken the oath
of fidelity to the Provisional Government; beyond that term
they will be treated as enemies.
" 6. The same privilege is allowed to all tile Carlist chiefs
who shall give their aid to the regeneration of the country.

We learn from Perpignan, under date of the 14th instant,
that the republics of Reuss, Tarragona, and other cities,
still hold firm. On the Bth they displayed considerable ac-
tivity, and sent a force of 2,500 men to Monthlane to watch
the movements of Baron de Meer, to whom the Commandant,
Don Jose Zulueta, one of the members of the Junta, wrote to
the following effect :—" The duties of a military man are bind-
ing only so long as the Government shall promote the coun-
try's happiness. The people have discovered the tendency of
the late Government to be quite the reverse. We invite the
Baron de Meer to join the cause of the liberators, not by capi-
tulation, but by devoting his services and sword to the cause of
the people. Should his Excellency refuse to join us, ho will
find us ever ready to give him a warm reception. Let him
take care, lest the cry of liberty be more fatal to the cause of
despotism than our arms." On the Bth, the whole forces of
Alcoban, Arbes, Combril, Lleveria, Belmont°, Surana, La
Figueiras, Villalonga, and several other towns, were concen-
trated at Reuss. Emissaries had left Tarragona with despatches
for Carthagena, which city had declared itself independent on
the sth.

German and Brussels papers have been received,
but their contents are uninteresting. M. V. Kos-
T, Editor of the Hungarian Manuscript Gazette,
was arrested early in the present month at his country
house, and confined in a barracks at Pesth. All his
papers were seized at the same time, and forwarded to
the Government for examination. This monstrous
violation of the liberty of a Hungarian, convicted of
no crime, nor even accused of any, has roused the in-
dignation of the nobles, who proposed a meeting to be
held on the 22d inst. (this day), for taking measures
for resisting such a flagrant violation of the Constitution.
