SPAIN.

MADRLD, SEPT. Ill.—The following is the
Royal decree for convoking the Extraordinary
Cortes :

4‘ His Majesty, in, consequence of the great evils which
weigh heavily on Constitutional Spain, being persuaded that
the nation reprosentoa by the Cortes can alone supply there-
sources indispensable for a prompt and effectual cure, has
thought it fit that they should assemble, and has ordered the
same to be made known to the permanent Deputation of the
Cortes. The said Extraordinary Cortes shall direct their at-
tention-4st, To furnish the Government with resources in men
and money sufficient to meet the wants of the State, and to
deliver the nation without delay from the factious bands which
infest the frontier provinces.-2, To the arrangement of affairs
of high importance with some Foreign Powers.-3d, To give
the Spanish Army a new organization, according to the mili-
tary ordinances, are discussion of whi;:h was suspended in the
last Legislature, and the placing of which in harmony with
the existing institutions is most important.-1, To the code of
!legal pracess so necessary for the prompt and impartial admi-
nistration of justice.,
" The objects above indicated are those which his Majesty
wishes in the first instance to submit to the deliberation of the
Extraordinary Cortes, reserving to himself the right of address-
ing to them some other subjects which may require a speedy,
decision. Finally, his Majesty orders it to be made known to
the permanent Deputation, that it will afford him much satis-
faction to find that the installation of the Extraordinary Cortes
shall experience as little delay as possible."
In consequence of this decree, the permanent Deputation,
in pursuance of the powers given to it by article 162 of the Con-
stitution, has issued another decree convoking the Extraordi-
nary Cortes for the 7th of October. The first preparatory
meeting to take place on The Ist ; and the last, which is the
day of the installation, on the 3d.
Circulars announcing these decreeS have been transmitted to
the Deputies.
The battalion of the.velunteers of Catalonia, and the Malaga
Regiment of Provincial Militia, amounting to 12,000 men,
embarked on the Ist at Malaga, for Barcelona.
Don Mugnoz Arayo,, Canon of Antequiera, arrived on the
31st of August at Malaga, to .occupy the vacant see of that
city, the Bishop being exiled.
BARCELONA, SEPT. 11.—Terror is the order of
the day in our city. Within eight days numerous arrests have
taken place among persons suppOsed to be unfriendly to the
new system. Sixty of these persons have been embarked.—
The place of their destination is not known. The country
is covered with Royalist bands, and new ones are formed
daily. Meantime we are overwhelmed with contributions of
all sorts, and ,commerce is absolutely null. Misery is at its
height.

[A list is then given of the persons arrested and embarked,
chiefly priests, monks, military officers, and persons in public
employments. I

Those who have drawn up the lists of proscription put in
execution on the fith, after burning the proclamation of the
Regency of Urgel, seek to colour their excesses by the neces-
sity of.defeating a plot to give up the citadel to the insur-
gents. But as-these arrests have taken place in every town of
the province and throughout all the Peninsula, they can only
be attributed to the new system of tenor, and to the employ-
ment which it is wished to give to the Liberals. These mea-
sures make a great many mal-contents, and cannot fail to
strengthen the Army of the Faith. The approach of Baron
d'Eroles, who at this moment attacks the castle of Ostalrich,
and whose troops come within a few leagues of this capital,
have called forth a sortie of 2,000 militia, and 400 regu-
lars, and a prodigious increase of threats.—( Quotidienne.

[Extract of a Letter from the Agents to Lloyd's
at Buenos Ayres, dated June 23.]
" It is reported that the Island of Chilao has
surrendered to the Force which was sent against
it by the Government of Chili the end of March."

We have received the French Papers of Sun-
day, and Frankfort Papers to the 18th.
Among our extracts from the Paris Papers is
an account of the execution of the conspirators,
BORIES, POMIER, GOUBIN, and RAMULX.—The
unhappy men conducted themselves with great
firmness, and received the consolations of reli-
gion with becoming piety. ,Immense multitudes
were ranged along the way through which they
proceeded to the place of execution ; but there
was not the slightest tendency to tumult.

The news from Spain is contradictory, though
there seems to be little doubt but that the insur-
gents have been severely handled. The Royal
Decree for convoking the Extraordinary Cortes,
is at once a proof of the sincerity with which
the, powers of the Executive Government
are at length directed to the consolidation of the
Constitution, and to the restoration of public
tranquillity, and of the confidence which the
Ministers place iu the patriotism of the Cortes
and of the nation, and in the final establishment
