INSURRECTION IN SPAIN.

from Bayonne of the 3d, which states that on the 29th
the Queen of Spain appeared on the Prado, and was well
received by the troops and the populace. •
Generals O'Donnell, Pros de Olano, and Messina have
been deprived of their rank, titles, and honours.
A despatch from the Spanish Government, of the 2d,
states that on the Ist, at four in the aiternoon, the
Queen's troops attacked the insurgents and gained a
signal advantage over them ; that the latter were routed,
and that many officers and privates had demanded leave
to return to their duty.
Madrid was tranquil.

According to intelligence from Madrid of the 2d, at
6 p.m. the city was tranquil, and no bad news had been
received from the provinces. The insurgents, instead of
throwing themselves on Alcala, were marching on
Toledo.

On the Madrid Bourse of the 28th the Three per
Cents, were at 37.40.

The Madrid journals of the 29th ult. contains details
of the military insurrection, of which some account has
already been given from telegraphic despatches. These
details are summed up in the following letter :
" Yesterday morning General Dulce, the officer who,
in 1841, distinguished himself in the palace of the Queen
at the head of the Haliebardiers by his noble resistance
to the insurgent troops, gave orders to all the cavalry
of Madrid to mount their horses. This he was enabled
to do, in virtue of his office as director and inspector of
cavalry. When the regiments had turned out be cried,
Long Live the Queen ! Death to the ministers !'
Generals O'Donnell, Ross de Olano, and Merino joined
him, as did also Colonel Ehagne at the head of his regi-
I merit. The rebels then left in the direction of Alcala
land Guadalajara, with, no doubt, the hope of causing
the troops stationed there to join them. The generals
issued a proclamation to the troops in which, whilst
expressing their devotedness to the Queen, they de-
clare that it is their intention to re-establish the con-
stitution of 1835. They then drew up and
signed a document by which they bind themselves
to do what their proclamation announces. The
council of ministers, on hearing of the insurrection,
immediately assembled at the Ministry of War, and
has since been setting permanently. The telegraph
is sending despatches in all directions. Important forces
have been sent to cut off the retreat of the rebels. The
Queen, who was at the Escurial when informed of the
rising, resolved to return to the capital ; and the Council
of Ministers having approved of this, her Majesty set
out. She arrived at Madrid at ten o clock in the even-
ing, and the bells of all the churches were rung to an-
nounce her return to the population. Instead of en-
, tering by the Barrier of San Vincento, the royal cortege
arrived at the Barrier of Atocha, which was the longest
route, and passed through all the town. The Queen
was escorted by all the garrison of the capital, including
' the cavalry regiment of Villa Vicente, which had arrived
from A ranjuez just as the Queen entered the city gates.
The population greeted her Majesty with enthusiasm.
and the Queen seemed much moved by her reception,
It appears that at the date of the last news, the rebels
were between Torrejan de Ardos and Alcala. At this
moment a strong column, consisting of 400 cavalry, a
battery of artillery, and four battalions of infantry, are
leaving Madrid to pursue the rebels."

PROCLAMATIONS OF THE GOVERNMENT.
The Madrid Gazette publishes the following docu-
ments
" MINISTRY OF WAR-ROYAL ORDINANCE.

" The unexampled disloyalty of General Don Domingo
Dulce, who, ungratefully abusing, not only his autho-
rity, but the confidence which I deigned to accord him,
has led into insurrection part of the forces of which the
direction was confided to him, must be treated with all
the rigour of the laws. In consequence, I decide that
General Dulce shall instantly be deprived of all places,
honours, and decorations, and he struck out of the list
of officers of his class ; and this without prejudice to the
trial to which he may if necessary be brought.--Given
at the Palace, the 28th June.
"The QUEEN.
" ANSELMO BLASER, Minister of War."

" ROYAL ORDINANCE.

" Excellency—On the 22d February last, in adopting
exceptional measures in consequence of the events at
Saragossa, the Queen's government proclaimed that it
was resolved to support order and the laws at every
cost. It now repeats the same declaration in presence
of a new military revolt ; and in order to crush that re-
volt by preventing any one from seconding or assisting
those who have commenced it, or may persist in it,
the Queen has adopted, with the advice of the Coun-
cil of Ministers, what follows :-1. All the Penin-
sula and adjacent islands being declared in a state
of siege, the military authorities shall resume the
universal command, and in consequence shall have
priority over all the other chiefs of the different
departments of the State. 2. Permanent courts-
martial shall be established in the provinces in which
they do not at present exist. These tribunals shall try
all sorts of persons who may attempt on whateverground
it may be, to disturb public order, or who may speak ill
of the constituted authorities, or of the government, or
of the sacred person of the Queen (whom may God pre-
serve !) By royal command, I communicate this to you
in order that it may be executed. God preserve you for
many years.

"To the Captain-General of •
The Gazette further publishes the following, addressed
by the military authorities of Madrid to the people of
the capital :
" PROCLAMATION.

" Don Domingo Dulce, the director-general of cavalry,
setting at work the projects of conspiracy, by which for
some time past public tranquility has been secretly un-
dermined, and calling out, under the pretext of 'Dances-
vres, three regiments of the branch of the forces of which
he had the direction, left the capital at an early hour
this morning, accompanied also by a battalion of infan-
try formed of different detachments. The Government,
in making known this scandalous sedition to the public,
and in which another general appears to have joined,
has every confidence not only in the loyalty of the
troops of the garrison who have remained faithful, but
also in the good sense of the people of Madrid, who have
taken no part in this disgraceful crime."

" SECOND PROCLAMA7ION.

ir At the present moment, and however afflicting it
may be to present in all its nudity to the country so
black- an act of ingratitude and disloyalty, the govern.
ment does not hesitate to appeal with a noble confidence
to the plain common sense and honour of the popula-
tion of Madrid. Let every one, as a man of honour,
lay his hand on his heart and he will feel the horror
which is caused by the conduct of an authority which,
when invested with the confidence placed in it, and
abusing the influence of its position, has perfidiously
undermined and perverted the mind of its subordi-
nates, for the purpose of inducing it to • commit
a most desperate attack on the most sacred laws.
The Spanish people have sufficient experience in re-
volutions to be aware that a movement commenced
by such men and such means can only prove injurious
to the progress of improvement in the country, and to
the consolidation of its liberty and happiness. The
Government, reckoning on the fidelity of the troops and
the loyalty of the population, feels certain that the pre-
sent movement will not only succeed, but will be soon
put down, without the people of Madrid having anything
else to do than to congratulate themselves on the judi-
cious conduct employed. But if, unfortunately, any one
sheuld attempt to interfere with public tranquillity, let
him be certain that the Government will prove inexor-
able in punishing all persons concerned in such an at-
tempt.
" Madrid, June 28. " JUAN DE LABA."
Then comes the following decree by the Captain-Gene-
ral of the province :

" Art 1. The military district under my orders is de-
clared in a state of siege. 2. A permanent court-mar-
tial is established to try all persons who may directly or
indirectly attempt to disturb public order. 3. All as-
semblies in the streets and public places of more than
three persons will be dispersed by force after the usual
summons. 4. No person is to be allowed to carry arms
and all arms to be delivered up within a delay of 24
hours. Every infraction of these orders shall 14 brought
under the operation of Art. 2. 5. Persons spreading
alarming news, or delivering or carrying papers of a
subversive character, whether in print or manuscript,
are equally to be subjected to Art. 2.
" Madrid, June 28. "JUAN DE lAEA."

PROCLAMATION OF THE INSURGENTS.
The following proclamation has been distributed by
the insurgonts

" Citizens—A corrupt and corrupting Government,
which has outraged the majesty of the laws and hu-
miliated the honour of the country, is on the point of
sinking under the weight of the national execration.
" The honourable men of all parties condem it ; the
public, indignant at its iniquities, reserves for it an
exemplary punishment.
"The days of its shameful domination do not suffice
to count by them the reckoning of its crimes. It has
broker. through the constitution of the State, trampled
on all the rights of citizens, been wanting to all the
sentiments of decorum, scorned the national represen-
tation, closed the tribune, enchained the press, sacked
the treasury, corrupted conscieuces, and sowed profound
perturbation in the country.
"The generals who have given to the Queen a throne,
in order to reign constitutionally—the men experienced
in political struggles, and the independent writers, are
persecuted, dismissed, or proscribed. A swarm of ad-
venturers has proposed to itself to couvert Spain intoiits
patrimony, and to destroy in a day the conquests of fifty
years of. heroic actions and generous sacrifices. After
Laving torn from the people enormous contributions not
authorised by the Cortes, it has instituted a new impost,
which has spread misery and famine in the provinces.
Its conduct bas no example nor excuse. The revolution
does not spring from the masses, nor go out from the
people— it proceeds from the governing power, which
has placed itself beyond the law.
" It is not another change of persons which is treated
of, nor a party revolution ; what is treated of is the fra-
ternal union of all Liberals, of all men of probity, who
seek to render the scandalous robbery which we have
hitherto witnessed impossible.
" Patriotism, union, and confidence ; with these three
elements the nation, liberty, and the throne will bo
saved ; and you will banish for ever the sad legacy of
humiliation which otherwise you will leave to your
children. _

" An act of energy alone can put an end to the reign
of arbitrariness and immorality. The country expects it
all from you. To arms; citizens 1 Either now or
never;"
