FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, MARCH 21.—This morning an -extra-
ordinary -courier arrived from London at the
Hotel of TheHasson, where the Ambassador of
Russia resides. After. stopping a few hours, the
courier set out for St. Petersburgh.

It is said that information has been received
to-day, by the telegraph, of a seditious move-
ment ac Pont Beauvoisin (Isere,) and of the
-airest of the guilty.
Some disorders took place-yesterday, at the
College of Henry IV. Several pupils having
in vain demanded the release of some of their
comrades who were confined, and the exclusion
of ione of the masters, barricaded themselves in
one of the quarters, and absolutely refused to
come out, notwithstanding the repeated admo-
nitions of the Provost' of the College, and the
rector of the Academy of Paris.
They only consented to open their door to ad-
mit the Almoner, Abbe Causens, who by his ex-
hortations succeeded • in calming them for a
time. But they persisted' in remaining so
shut up for the night, and it was not till the
morning-, when preparations were making to
break the doors open, that they came out and
went to their respective quarters. An inquiry is
making to discover the most culpable, and the
Academic Council will decide on their cases.

A letter from Irun, of the 10th Marchotates
that De la Motile •a►id Nantil were still in tha
town.

Mingo, one of the leaders of the Spanish In-
surgents, who fled to France, has just arrived
from Bayonne, at Barcelona.
A Lyons Journal states, that several merchants
-of that city have received hy the post, and with
_the post mark of GrenohD, letters signed by a
, name unknown to them, and announcing that
General Berton was in the latter city at the head
of an army of 8,000 men, and that he was march-
.ing towards the city of Lyons. Notwithstanding
the contempt which this ridiculous fable excited
in them, they have put these letters in the hands
of the Magistrates, who are endeavouring to dis-
cover the author. It appears that only the per-
son that sounded the tocsin at.Coucy-le-Chateau
(Aisne) has been arrested, and that his accom-
pikes succeeded in saving themselves in the
Woods. This individual has been placed in the
hands of justice.
_ _

NI. de Chautaubriand will set out on Tuesday
'to the Court of London as Ambassador.

It is affirmed that Mr. Zea, Minister from the

-.. -General of distinction has been sent by the Aulic
t
•Council of War at Vienna to the Eastern fron-
-tiers of the Austrian dominions, to inspect the

omission.

FFLANaFORT, MARCH 16.-A Turkish division,
consisting of 13,000 men, arrived at Silistria on
the 21st ult. a part of these troops immediately
passed the Danube to advance to the extreme
pos'ition. The Commandant of the division an
nounced the approaching march of a considerable
army.

A.tx-LA-CnApEr.LE, MAncn 16.---There i§ no
longer any doubt that the Ottoman Porte does
not wish for the maintenance of peace on the
conditions expressed in the ultimatum of the
Russian Cabinet, .which are the evacuation of
Moldavia and Wallachia. A numerous Turkish
army has assembled in' the first of these Princi-
palities acid a grand park of artillery has ar-
-rived from,Constantinople at Rudstuck, besides
a considerable quantity of ammunition and pro-
visions. These extraordinary movements Of the
Turks have excited the attention of the Russian
General who commands in Bessarabia. He has
advanceda strong division of his troops upon the
Ottoman frontier. -

Intelligence has been received at Vienna, that
the grand Turkish army, consisting of corps as-
sembled Jong since in the environs of Adrianople
and Constantinople, are in full march for the
Danube. There is in this army a strong division
of Janissaries ; its artillery is numerous. At-
tached to the army are several European officers,
particularly English.

COPENHAG EN, MARCH 12.—For some days all
kinds of absurd reports have been in circulation
in this capital : among others, that by the inter-
vention of Great Britain, Sweden would be put
in possession of the island of Seeland, in ex-
change for an indemnity on the frontiers of
Hanover.• In consequence of these reports, some
peaceable English have been assailed and ill-
treated by the populace. The Government has,
therefore, caused it to be announced that these
reports are destitute of foundation. However,
it is not doubted that there are at this moment
neg,ociations on foot tending to a special alliance
between England and Denmark.

Accounts—from Christiania state, that Mr.
'Beim, the bookseller, has been condemned to
transportation, for, having violated the laws rela-
tive to the Press.

BRUSSELS, MARCH 21.—A letter from Cain-
bray, dated the 17th inst. contains the following
,passage:—" A new plot, the object of which
was to excite an insurrection in the environs of
Leon, has just been baffled. A. pretty nume-
rous troop of daring men, directed by some offi-
cers in disguise, had formed the project to induce
the villages and towns of the Canton to revolt,
'and then to proceed to La Fere, to make them-

selves masters of its magazines, &c. of artillery
in that town. The tocsin was sounded in some
communes, and tri-coloured cockades displayed ;
but these revolutionary attempts did not produce
any, effect."

MADRID, MARcu 11.

SITTING OF THE CORTES.

The Report of the Committee of Powers was read on the
validity of the Election of D. ltamon Luis Escovedo, Deputy
for Toledo. The Committee thought his powers conformable to
the Constitution, and that they ought to be approved ; but that
though it appeared the permanent deputation was :informed
that this individual was deprived Of his rights as a citizen,
since by a decree of the Extraordinary Cortes orders have been
given to institute proceedings against him, it was not known
how far these proceedings had advanced, or whether any had
been commenced ; the Committee, therefore, declined giving
an opinion whether Sen. Escovedo should be admitted to
dis-
charge his functions. •
Atter a long debate, the first part of the opinion of the Com-
mittee was approved, and the election of Sen. Escovedo declared
valid by 54 votes to 51.

M. Oliver then proposed, that considering the 22d Article
of the regulations, it be declared that Sen. Escovedo shall enter
and take his oath in the assembly, without prejudice to what
the tribunal of the Cortes shall determine." This was adopted
by 76 votes to 54.
A dispatch from the Minister of Justice was read, with which
he transmitted the decree of the Cortes of 7th June, 1621, pas-
sing a law on the abolition of Seignorial Rights, stating that
his Majesty had declined giving it his sanction, and sent it back
with the form " returned to the Cortes."

The :Minister of Justice then read an explanation of the rea-
sons that had induced his Majesty to refuse his sanction ; he also
read a project of law which his Majesty proposed to the Cortes
jor their consideration,

The President replied, that the Cortes would take it into
consideration. '

Senor Adan said it was a thing unparalleled in the history of
civilized nations, for a law to be returned to a representative
bcdy with a refusal to sanction it, and at the same. time to pre-
sent by the Executive Government a new law on the same
subject. The Cortes has a right to present to the King, in this
Session and the next, the same law which he has sent back ;.
how can the Cortes do this when they have to examine another
law on the same subject ? This novelty is the most remark-
able, as the King has chosen Ministers who were not favour-
able to thisiaw.

Some Members proposed " that the law approved by the
preceding Cortes should be again taken into consideration?'
S.'Cuevas proposed " that his Majesty's Message should re-
main four days on the table, for the oonsideration of the Mem-
bers." This was approved.
A debate arose whether the new project and the explanation
read by the Minister of Justice should be printed.
The Minister of Justice acknowledged that the Cortes might
present the same law a second and a third time ; but that nei-
ther the laws nor the Constitution had determined the course
and the progress of projects of law presented by his Majesty,
and his Majesty consequently had not gone beyond the prero-
gatives given him by the Constitution.
Senor Riego said, the Constitution gave only faculties.
The printing of the Message, &c. was disapproved.
S. Canga them made a speech, on the memorials presented
by Ministers, in which he shewed the obstacles that had im-
peded the march of the Constitution, the scandalous scenes of
Navarre, Arragon, Catalonia, &c. the machinations of some
Spaniards who have found an asyluni with the agents of despo-
tism, the method adopted by some foreign Journals to decry
our Institution, the mischief caused by the indifference of many
public officers to the new institutions, the utility of the patrio-
tic societies, the invectives by which some writers have endea-
voured to excite the Legislature to prohibit these societies.—
He skewed that the word Republic, so often propagated by the
enemies of the Constitution, had done mischief, and having
shown the causes that had:C produced the evils now felt, he
proposed
1. That the Cortes declare that the following subjects Shall
be entered upon as the most urgent : • -
1. The'regulation of the Finances, together with the endow-
ment of the Clergy.
2. The investigation of the causes, internal and external, of
the political situation of the nation, and the best means of se-
curing the tranquillity of the nation.
3. The thorough knowledge of the situation of the Ultra-ma-
rine provinces, and the measures taken by the Government on
this head, that the most proper means may be adopted to esta-
blish the tranquillity of those countries.
4. That while these points, are debating, the Members shall
give up their right of making new proposals in the Congress,_
and that the time of Sittings be not limited to four o'clock
precisely. _ _ _ _ _

After- some debate, S. Canga withdrew his proposal relative
to the State 'of the Nation, and -that for making the Members
refrain from bringing forward any new proposal.—The rest
were approved.
In the sitting of the Bth, S. Escovedo took the oath and his
-seat.

The opinion of the Special Committee of the late Cortes, on
:the affair of Don Domingo Velasco, was discussed, who was
prosecuted as the author'of a paper called the Sentinel against
the Republicans. A very long and vehement debate ensued,
after which it was decided-1. That there were no grounds to
proceed against the Provisional Auditor who commenced the pro-
ceedings against Velasco, but that there are grounds to proceed
against the Magistrates of the Special Tribunal which tried
Velasco on the second instance, and against the Attorney of the
same Tribunal.

.In the Sitting of the 9th instant, a proposition was made by
a great number of the most eminent Deputies, to the following
cifectl—" That the tumults which prevail in the Provinces,
and•the re-actions which take place against the Constitutional
system, followed by prosecutions and proceedings against de-
serving patriots, authorize us to call before us the Ministers
of the Interior, of ‘Var, and of Grace and Justice, to give
an account of the origin of such events, and of the mea-
sures taken in consequence of them." After a warm dis-
cussion it was decided that the Ministers should be required
to appear fur this purpose yin the evening at an Extraordinary
Sitting.
In this Extraordinary Sitting, the Ministers came to give
their account, and to satisfy the desire of the Cortes, and the
Minister of the Interior gave a very long statement of the
troubles at Barcelona.

The President having observed, that the hour of closing the
Sitting was now passed, said the Cortes are informed of the
state of the nation, by the reports of the Ministers ; that the
Committee would take them into consideration before it gave
its opinion to 'the Cones, and that in the mean', time the As-
sembly hoped that -he Government would adopt the necessary
Measures to calm the public agitation, to inspire the nation
with confidence, and to alleviate the fate of some Patriots, who
suffer under arliP,rary power.
In the Sitting of the 10th, four Deputies proposed that the
10th of March should be declared a day of Public Mourning,
on account of the,events at Cadiz ; and second, that a Monu-
ment be erected in the city of Cadiz, to immortalize the glory
of, the liberating Army or the-Isla, and the cruel sacrifice of
the Inhabitants on the 10th of March. This proposal was
apprpved.
In the Sitting of the 11th, Senor Canga Arguelles moved,
that the House should consider shortly the subject of the So-
cieties which had been formed against the Constitutional
System. A communication to this effect was made to the
Committee of Inquiry.
