g. The new Constitution, as revised by the
Cortes, has been accepted and signed by the QUEEN
REGENT. It was presented to her MAJESTY by
Don PEDRO OcuNA, Deputy for Jaen, accompanied
with the following Address, to which she returned a
brief but gracious Answer :-
66 MADANIE-.--Charged by the Cortes with the honour-
able and agreeable mission .of conveying to your Majesty
a respectful message with the political Constitution of the
Spanish Monarchy, and to solicit your ratification thereto,
as Regent of the kingdom, in the name of your august
daughter, our legitimate Queen, Donna Isabella 11., we
have the incomparable satisfaction to afford to Europe
this new proof of the ardent sympathies of Spaniards
for liberty and glory, and of their sincere affection
and eternal devotedness to their excellent Monarchs. The
deputies of the nation, in unison with public opinion, keeping
pace with the progress cf political science, and guided by ex-
perience have used their utmost effarts to consolidate the
Throne for the welfare of the State without infringing the
rights of the People. It now becomes the province of
your Majesty to affix an indestructible seal to this pledge of
love, loyalty, union, and of peace, which will ensure the
future prosperity of your faithful subjects. In congratula-
ting ourselves upon this solemn occasicn, permit us to. ex-
press the flattering hope that we shall •owe to your magna-
nimous and noble mind all that can contribute to the happi-
ness of the kingdom. We have also another duty to per-
form in the presence of your -Majesty—namely, to request
your sanction to a special law upon Courts of Justice.'
The Madrid Gazette contains a favourable account
.of the state of public feeling in the southern provinces
of Spain. From Saragossa and Barcelona the advices
were rather better than was anticipated from previous
events' in the capital.

Brussels and German Papers have been received.
The former contain no news. The latter state that, on
the authority of a letter from Frankfort, 18,000 marks
of gold bars have been sent to England, on account of
one great house. The Emperor of RUSSIA will
begin the tour of his dominions in August.

On Saturday night a butcher, in High-street,
Marylebone, having sacrificed pretty freely at the shrine of
Bacchus, set out on his serpentine travels ; and after many
extra bumpers, succeeded in reaching home, and immediately
went up stairs to bed. Having stripped off his clothes, and
being, like John Gilpin, in a merry mood, he began to can-
vass the merits of each garment, when his inexpressibles, after
a long trial, were found to be unfit for service, and condemned
to be thrown out of window into the street. The sentence
was immediately put into execution ; when, shortly after-
wards, he happened to recollect that in the fob of the afore-
said inexpressible, was a valuable silver hunting watch, capped
and jewelled, with appendages, and worth altogether six gui-
neas. Having discovered his mistake, he ran down stairs to
look for his cast-off garment, but in vain, it having been car-
ried off by some lucky passer-by. He has since offered a
handsome reward for the recovery of the watch, but up to the
present time it has not been restored to him.

The quantity of flax and hemp imported during the
past part of the present year, as compared with the quantity
imported during the corresponding period of last year, affords
a strong illustration of the unfavourable change our trade has
undergone. Prior to the Ist of June this year, the imports
were—flax, 331 tons; flax cedilla, 227 tons 17 cwt. ; hemp
codilla, 13 toe: 9 cwt. ; total, 573 tons 3 cwt. Prior to the
Ist of June last year they were—flax, 7,402 tons 11 cwt. ;
hemp, 328 tons 9 cwt. ; flax codilla, 681 tons 4 cwt. ; hemp
codilla, 393 tons 15 cwt. ; total, 8,805 tons 16 cwt. Four
flax-loaded vessels have arrived during the present week.
Their cargoes will probably amount to between 500 and 600
tons. One of them should have arrived in the end of last
year, having left Riga in November, but was detained in the
Baltic in consequence of having got ashore. In the first ten
days of June, 1836, about fifty vessels arrived with flax and
hemp, their united cargoes amounting to about 5,000 tons.

Thursdays woman, named Eliza Green, was brought
up at the New Bailey, charged with having disposed of her
child, an infant in arms, to a man for a sovereign. It appeared
thaton Wednesday afternoon, as a man, named O'Hara, was
drinking in a public house, the prisoner went in, when the
man, who was intoxicated, asked her what she would take for
the,child, when she replied " a sovereign." He immediately
gave her one, and took the child. In the meantime she went
away; but the man, finding the infant become burdensome to
him, went after and finally encountered her in Shudehill,
where he seized her, and conveyed her to the police-office. A
girl, who was present in the public-house, corroborated the
man's statement with regard to the child. When the woman
was taken, she had spent about Bs. of the money. She said
that a state of destitution had caused her. to act as she had
done. Haslam, the officer, at the vagrant office, said that he
had seen her frequently begging about the streets, and the
magistrate committed her to gaol for one month, for an act of
vagrancy. —Mir n chester Guardian.

:MURDER.—_I woman who has been for some time
an inmate of the Yarmouth workhouse has confessed to the
Rev. Mr. Armstrong that she murdered a boy, six years old,
the son of Mr. S. Wolf, who was found drowned in a cistern
about four years ago. Her statement was that the child was
troublesome to her when at work, and that she pushed him
into the cistern and covered the lid over him in a fit of pas-
sion. The woman has been for some time in a precarious
state of health, and still remains so ; her medical attendants
have not therefore thought it right that her deposition should
be formally taken, but we are enabled to state that she now
positively denies having committed the crime, and says " she
loved the child too well to do him any harm."--Norfolk
Chronicle.

One Sunday, when the Rev. Sir H. Moncrieff was
minister of Blackford, the precentor came to church with
the back part of his large curled wig turned to the fore part
of his head. The minister gave out the 71st Psalm to be
sung, beginning at the 7th verse. When the precentor stood
up to sing the first line, which runs, "to many I a wonder
am," the people could not keep from looking and laughing at
him. Sir Henry observing the point to which the people's
eyes were directed, looked over the pulpit, and seeing the mis-
take, gravely said, " and so, Sir, you are a wonder to many ;
turn the right side of your wigforemost."—Berwick Advertiser.
'e are sorry to learn that the pressure upon manu-
factures and commerce has at last reached our country.
Within a short time several extensive failures in the " How of
Fife," along the Leven, as well as in the towns upon the coast,
have taken place. We suspect that the crisis of distress is
not over, and it will become every one so engaged to work
warily for some considerable time to come. Over speculation
and over trading are the root of the evil, and till the balance
between the production and consumption, the demand and sup-
ply, is restored, the country will not regain its healthy state.

The parks, on Sunday, presented, as far as pedes-
trians were concerned, an animated scene, and all the appear-
ance of summer having arrived at last, though a harsh wind and
occasional showers scarcely confirmed the hope; of fashionable
equipages there was, however, a dearth which would have
gratified the heart of Sir Andrew Agnew.
Considerable amusement was caused in Regent-
. street yesterday, by the following laughable affair :—Two
gentlemen were walking leisurely along the street, when sud-
denly, One of them exclaiming " There's that rascal, G.," in-
stantly darted across the street towards a dashingly-dressed
exquisite on the opposite side of the way, who, perceiving the
approaching party, commenced a hasty retreat, closely pursued
by the other. The street was thronged with carriages at the
time, and the pursued party endeavoured to avoid his pursuers
by dodging
amongst the different vehicles and under the
horses, to the no small amusement of the spectators, and the
carriage folks in particular, several of whom stood up on the
seats after the fashion of the " Derby day." At last the dandy
issued from under a horse's belly minus his hat and a la spencer,
his skirts remaining in the hands of his pursuer; and after
capsizing several persons in his career, he made good his re-
treat amidst the shouts of the spectators.
A carrier pigeon, supposed to have been driven out
of its course by the strong easterly wind which has lately pre-
vailed, was caught on Thursday at Newhaven, having attached
to one of its legs a paper, on which were inscribed the follow-
ing ciphers : T X A—A Ll 3 NXNC O—C LA 0 C
UCLA L L—C OON A OC O. June 6th P. T. 6th 14.
The bird, which has " No. 36" marked on the wing feathers,
remains in the possession of Mr. William Stone, of Newhaven.
