MADRID, DEc. 27.—The Provincial Deputa-
tion of Catalonia sent, on the 10th instant, an
Address to the King. The petitioners declare
their aolichment to the Constitution, which, they
re I'd 0, the, plank which saved them from des..
pottsm and they address to the Throne their
-wiskes7 and those of 'the province of which they
are the organs,- that no attempt should be made

against their national liberties, or the prerogatives
of the Crown, and pray, that
..if the Ministers
have attacked the liberties of ihe country, the'y
may be judged and-punished according,to law.
Don Alejandro O'Donnell, the Commandant
at Vittoria, having taken the necessary precau-
tions to, stop the.PrOgress_of the insurrection in
Navarre, writes that on the night of the 22d he
had received .official intelligence of the defeat of
the disaffected, by the troops under General
Lopez Banos, who had pursued as far as the
mountains of Andia.—(ilioniteur.)
SAME DATE.—(Extract of a Private Letter.)—
The Government propose sending immediately
some troops to bring back Seville and Cadiz to
their obedience. It is certain that on the 24th
the Council Of State assembled in the' morning,
and received a communication from the King,
desiring them to propose to. Government the
measures to be adopted in case it should be com-
pelled to resort to military force. A Committee
of the Council or State was instantly appointed
to consider of these measures, and the Sitting
did not close till six o'clock in the evening.
The discussion in the Council was very animated.
General Castanos expressed himself with great
energy against the transactions of Seville, which
were defended with not less warmth by General
B—os. At length the majority of the.Coutt-
cil having voted
,with General Castanos, orders
were, it is said, immediately dispatched for the
march of several corps, and General Campoverdo,
Commandment of Grenada, appointed to the
command of, the troops sent against Seville.
Colonel San Miguel, one of the Editors of the
Espectador, has received orders to repair to Sara-
gossa.

Riego is, gone to the ASturias with his youug
wife.—(Constitutionnel.)
SAME DATE.—(Extract from another Private
'Letter.)—The affairs of Andalusia are every day
assuming a character more alarming. An extra-
ordinary courier has brought an account of new
troubles at Seville. A battalion of the garrison
threatened to proceed to the greatest excesses.
These troops e.ve❑ went so far as to contemplate
the putting to death any person who might pro-
pose to obey orders emanating from the present
Ministry.—Valencia has entered 'into the new
confederation ; and the representation it has for-
warded, it is said, yields in nothing to those of
:Cadiz and Seville. On the contrary, the whole
dr Galicia is restored to order.—Discontent has
shewn itself in several, parts'Of Catalonia:- The
example of Navarre, the violence of certain au-
thorities, and of several corps stationed in the
province, appear to have occasioned those new
troubles.—Madrid enjoys a provisional tranquil-
lity, for which it is indebted to the firm attitude
of the Authorities; and but for• which they ,would
be exposed to all the fury of the revolutionists.
Fortunately they do not allow themseiNes-to. be
overawed.—There. is nothought of any chanae of
Ministry. The Minister of the Interior, gece,
narres, will, perhaps, hethe first who,, either vo-
luntarily or by order, will abandon his post.—
Several regiments have received orders to march
for Cordova, to augment the number of troops
assembling under the command of General Daoiz,
who ivill at last have to enforce the orders of the
Government in the south of the Peninsula.

In speaking of the Cortes, the journal of Cadiz.
says—" It is reported-that. there have arrived at
Madrid rope-dancers and players with cups and
balls of elaraordinary skill, who reckon upon
amusing the public during the carnival, and even
until the month of March,, by showing the white
black and the black-white. They have esta-
blished their theatre near Donna Maria Arragon
(it is there the hall of the Congress is situated;)
but in so cold a season the people, instead of
this sedentary recreation, will doubtless prefer
the more agreeable amusement of moving the
arms in the game of Rackets; and thus employ
their strength in a sport more useful to their
cause."

A convoy from America was in sight of Cadiz
on the 18th, and the frigate Anil which escorts
it, has on board two millions of hard dollars.—
(Journal des Debuts.)
DEC. 28.—Brigadier Jauregui, who has usurped
the command of Cadiz, issued a proclamation on
the 17th, which states as follows :--" I have re-
ceived the Madrid Gazette of the 12th, which
contains the answer of the Cortes to the Ring's
message. I have at the same time received two
Royal ordinances ; one of which appoints the
well-deserving patriot Don Jacinte Romavate,
brigadier of the national army, Military Com-
mandant of this province—this is the same per-
son whose dismissal had given occasion for re-
monstrances from the authorities of this city.
The other Royal ordinances gives us for chief,
Don Joachim Escario, who occupied the same
situation at Burgos ; a man who has suffered for
the cause of liberty, and who had the glory of
assisting the Empecinado in combating Merino.
—I request the public to take into consideration
the qualities of the two patriots who are about to
arrive, and take upon themselves the offices which
I have provisionally held."—(Drapeau Blanc.)
BILBOA, DEC. 29.—( Extract of a Private Let-
ter.)—The 26th, 27th, and 28th, were for Bil-
boa days of disquietude. All the villages of the
environs (one only excepted) revolted, and threat-
ened the whole province. Bilboa was nearly
taken by the insurgents.— On the 28th, an emis-
sary, sent by the Chief of the insurgents, fell into
the hands of one of the, pat:cots, of our guard, who
conducted him to the town-house. Our Magis-
trates have the reputation of being Serviles, and
many persons are of opinion that the whole of
this affair was concerted by them.—The Captain
of a company in the regular guard is said to be
compromised by the dispatches found upon the
emissary of the insurgents. He is put under
arrest, and is to be tried by a military commis-
sion, according to the martial law published on
the 26th.---(Journal des Debuts.)
IRUN, JAN. I.—We have no letters from Pam-
peluna to-day. The last were dated the 27th
ult. They announce that the greatest consterna-
tion prevailed there.—On the 25th and 26th
there was a serious quar el between the students
and the mien number of troaps remaining in the
garrison. • A. fusilade took place, and 8 or 10
men were dangerously wounded.—The same let-
„ters observe, that it would be very difficult to

give accounts of what is passing, throughout
N. arre. We have beeit-giVeti to understand
that the- insurgents, whose, prinvipal places of
meeting were the 'tnouittains‘ootuncal and San-
Ittescai haVe been beaten. JCis added, that thou-
sands of these insurgents cannot stind against a fey
regular troops. They have asked and obtained per-,
mission- to return to their homes. As yet, however,
we have not seen the troops return to our garrison.
On the 26th, 27th, and 28th, there was fighting
at Bastana,-Lesaca, and Vera. No force could
be found to oppose six hundred insurgents on
their first appearance, except 150 men belonging
to the Custom-house at Bastans ; these domaniers
were beaten ; but at: Lesaca and Vera, being
reinforced by militia from Irun, Oyarsun, and
some other neighbouring villages, they succeeded
in putting the insurgents to the rout. The num-
ber of dead on both sides is said to be one hun-
dred. On the 30th we. perceived from lrun
about one hundred- armed men on the mountain
of San Marical. Fears being entertained that
they would pay us a visit, several persons have
begun to prepare for flight.—(Journal des Debuts.)
