FRANCE.
M. Casimir Delavigne had yesterday the honour of dining
with the King and Royal Family.
The hotel of the Turkish Ambassador was brilliantly
illuminated on Monday evening in honour of the Sultan's
birthday.
Talat Effendi, the late Charge d'Affaires of the Sublime
Porte at Paris, has been recalled to Constantinople, where
he has been appointed to the office of Secretary to the Divan.
The Polish General Wroniecki died yesterday morning
at the hospital at Chaillot, where he had been forced to
seek an asylum. He was in the prime of life, and was one
of the most distinguished officers of the Polish army created
by the Grand Duke Constantine ; his works on the art of
war are highly esteemed. Having taken part in the last
revolution of his unfortunate country, he was forced to
emigrate, and has since resided in France.
Count Montholon, who, sinco his return from St. Helena,
had embarked in commercial transactions,i
came a bankrupt, but had subsequently satisfied failed,i,is credi-
tors, was yesterday restored by the Cour Royal to the en-
joyment of his rights as a citizen of France.
A Royal ordinance dated the ad inst. confers upon the
Professorship of Human uatomy at the Museum of Natu-

ral History in the Garden of Plants the title of Ckairc

" The overtures for a reconciliation," says the Sieele,
" between the Court and the Archbishop of Paris have
terminated in the Prelate retiring to his tent, and refusing
his ministry in the christening of Count de Paris, com-
plaining loudly of the non-execution of engagements, and
of the refusal of indemnities stipulated as the price of his
condescension. M. de Queen, however, believes that he
cannot be dispensed with, and is waiting for fresh advances.
Among other things, he is said to expect the revival in his
person of the ancient prerogatives of Duke of St. Cloud,
which were enjoyed by the Archbishops of Paris previous to
1789."

Direct intelligence from Lahore, received in Paris, state
that the most friendly relations subsist between Runjeet
Singh and the Governor of the British possessions in India.
We have reason to believe, however, that Great Britain, in
the intrigues that disturb the peace of her colonies, has more
than one enemy to apprehend.—Commerce.

SPAIN.
MADRID, Nov. 28.—The new Administration is nearly
completed. The Queen-Regent signed yesterday the fol-
lowing appointments, viz :
The Duke of Gor, Minister of Foreign Affairs.
M. Armendariz, Interior.
M. Govantes, Justice.
General Alaix, War.
M. Primo de Rivera, Marine.
The Financial Department is still vacant, and the candi-
dates proposed to fill it are Messrs. Satorras, Reynosa, San-
tillano, or Edalgo.
General Alaix has pot yet arrived. These Ministerial
arrangements are no# consequently considered definitive.
The Queen had resolved on appointing the above-men-
tioned Ministers, after taking the opinion of the majority of
the Chamber of Deputies. On the 27th, seventy-six of its
members held a private meeting in the evening, and seventy
out of the whole number pledged themselves to sur,port the
Armendariz Cabinet.
A letter from Saragossa of the 29th ult., published by
the Sentinelle des Pyrenees, contains the following impor-
tant intelligence :
" The kingdom of Arragon has just separated itself
from the Government of Madrid, and proclaimed its inde-
pence. The first acts of the insurrectionary Junta were
most energetic. It had ordered a levy en mane ; all men
between eighteen and forty years of age were called under
arms. A contribution of 18,000,000 reels was required
of all the proprietors paying upwards of forty francs taxes.
The example of Seville has thus been imitated by the
Arragonese."
The Captain-General of Arragon had issued the follow..
ing proclamation :
" Arragonese,—The circumstances of the epoch, the
situation in which we find ourselves, and even your safety
and that of your families, render indispensable a measure
which, rising in urgency above all others that have until now
been dictated by necessity, will minister to these wants
while it will deprive the enemy's rank of a great part of
your youth, whose sentiments of loyalty can never be identi-
fied with the principles of desolation and barbarity which
characterize the rebellious parties.
" We lately saw the barbarous Cabrera, after spreading
terror and desolation through a great portion of this king-
dom, carry away with him many of your noble sons, and
force them to join banditti with whom they never can
sympathise. Being informed that Cabrera means to
extend the measure to all the kingdom, I considered it
my duty to defeat his object, by calling into our
ranks all those he might intend enrolling in his
bands. This determination, which will appear harsh
and terrible, I refrained hitherto, on that account, from
adopting, but necessity now renders it indispensible. lam
obliged to act upon circumstances, and to order, with the
sanction of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, a ge-
neral rising, which, agreeably to the plan and instructions I
will communicate to the Commissioners of the depots, shall
be substituted for that lately decreed by the Government,
and will have the effect of protecting from the violence of
the traitors, our brave Arragonese youth, who will besides
have it in their power to render glorious service to the na-
tion, and from whose generosity, valour, and patriotism, so
much may he expected, &c.
" SANTOS SAN MIGUEL.
" Saragossa, Nov. 27, 1638."
The horrid system of reprisals continued in Arragon.
At Villa Hermosa, Cabrera caused the sons of the defender
of the fort of Villamafesa to be shot. The eldest of these
unfortunate infants was only 12 years of age !
The commander of Valencia, on his side, caused eleven
Carlists to be put to death outside the gates of the city,
on the 17th, in retaliation for the massacre of as many
Christinos murdered near Segorbe a fewdays before. Finally,
the Carlists having shot at Herrera thirty men of the gar-
rison of Carinena, the following order was addressed to the
commander of Saragossa :
" Excellency,—The General-in-Chief having received
your communication, dated the 20th instant, containing
the report of the military commander of Carinena, which
informed your Excellency of the frightful massacre of the
soldiers of the garrison of that town at' Herrera, directs
me in consequence to call upon your Excellency to ap-
prise the Junta of Reprisals of his having decreed that a
sub-lieutenant, two sergeants, a bugler, a first corporal,
two second corporals, and thirty-two private soldiers, be
immediately brought out of the depot of prisoners of Sa-
ragossa, and shot.

" I request your Excellency to be pleased to make this
order as public as possible, that it may have the desired
end, which is not to shed Spanish blood, but to put tra end
to the cruelties of the rebel chief.
" The Chief of the Staff,
" PEDRO CUACON."
On the 2.Bth ult. the execution of the urhappy prisoners
actually took place.
The Carlist officer who had been despatched to Cabrera
to endeavour to dissuade him from perpetrating hereafter
deeds of this kind, found him as Inexorable as ever. Cab-
rera replied, that he cared little for the fate of Carlist
prisoners, that he would continue to act as hQ pleased, and
that the Queen's Generals might do the same. He even
threatened to shoot the officer, if he should renew his en-
treaties.
