Later. advices from. Madrid, of the .Bth, state
that the Rebels were marching upon Ciudad Real.

Madrid remained perfectly tranquil.
The. _Herald° says :—" The Queen, yielding to
the generous impulse of heart, and to the suppli-
cations of Mme. Garrigo, for the pardony of her
husband, has granted him a pardon.
The same journal publishes a letter addressed by
Mme. Garrigo to her Majesty, expressing profound
a'nd eternal gratitude for her goodness. The
Debats says -
" General O'Donnell recently addressed two letters,
to Queen Isabella : they were written in 'language
full of propriety 'and respect, and contained protesta-
tions of his devotedness and fid'elity, -to the Queen.
What he had done, he said, was -not caused. by
any sentimeni of hostility, but, on Vie -contrary, by
the sincere desire to protect the Queen and her dynasty
from the imprudence of those who, under, pretext of
serving a cause dear to ail Spanish hearts, compromise
it by their temerity and violence. The general called to
mind his old services ; he compared them with those of
the persons who have placed themselves between the
Queen and her most experienced servants; and he called
on Ministers for an account of the use .they have made
of the confidence of the Crown. He accused - them of
having shamefully abused that confidetice, and of thereby
having
,excited new disturbances in Spain, which only
desires to plover under the' legitimate' isceptre of her
eovereign, and under the regular and legal protection
of constitutional government. The letters' of General
O'Donnel at first produced some impression on' the
mind of the Queen, and a. good deal ef agitation in her
court; There was a talk Of conciliation and of a corn-.
promise, and schemes for negotiations-were proposed
and supported by. personages who occupy at court inj,-
portant and confidential charges ; it was even remarked
that the Queen herself did not absolutely reject these
dispositions to indulgence. The intervention of the
President of the Council of Ministers caused them, how-
ever, to be set aside. Count de San Luis 'represented
that the authority of the Queen would be ruined if nego-
tiations with the insurgents ,were to be entered into ;
that there was only one good line of conduct to follow,
which was, that the insurrection should not be feared,
but be boldly met, and that -the only question for the
moment was to combat and vanquish it. These councils
prevailed, and it' was determined to redouble energy.and
activity. -It is unnecessary to add that the letters of
General O'Donnell remained unanswered."
