BOURSE:, QUARTER TO Fourt.—At Tortoni's the Three per
Cents. were currently done at 80f. loc., and remained sellers
at that price ; but at the opening of the Bourse the Three per
Cents. improved immediately to 80f. 15c., and again to 80f.
25c. ; which is the present price, sellers.
The Spanish Active Stock got up to 33, but has since re-
ceded to 324; the motive of this improvement is a general
prevalent report on 'Change, that the Spanish Government
at Madrid has proclaimed the Constitution of 1812.

Madrid Journals to the 4th inst. have been received.
Their contents are important. On the evening of the
2d, accounts reached Madrid of the Proclamation of the
Constitution in Cadiz, Saragossa, Seville, &c. A Cabinet
Council was forthwith summoned to meet at the private
residence of Senor IsTuatz, who is suffering from an
• attack of brain fever. The Council sat in deliberation
from midnight till 5 o'clock in the morning, when orders were
issued to recall the troops destined to march against Malaga,
and to suspend the publication of the Royal Ordinance, which
was to have appeared in the Gazette of the 3d, proclaiming
Malaga in a state of insurrection. Accordingly on the
morning of the 3d, Brigadier MANDIVIL, at the head of the
column destined to march against the Malagueros, re-en-
tered Madrid. It was also resolved in the Council to send
Royal Commissioners to the several cities in which the
Constitution had been proclaimed, to persuade the people
to return to their duty ; to send other Commissioners to
the peaceable provinces to recommend order and subordi-
nation to the inhabitants ; and to strengthen the capital by
a regular force of not less than twenty thousand veteran
troops. The cities in which the Constitution of 1812 have
already been proclaimed are Malaga, Cadiz, Cordova, Se-
ville, Xeres, Puerto, Santa Maria, and the Isle of Leon.
The QUEEN-REGENT was at La Granja, where the Fo-
reign Ambassadors had also taken up their residence. Her
MAJESTY is represented as greatly incensed against ISTU-
RIZ, whom she accuses of having deceived her with re-
spect to the real sentiments of the people. It is now very
doubtful as to whether the President of the Council will
meet the Cortes in his Ministerial capacity. His col-
leagues are filled with terror, and nothing prevents them
from resigning but the mortification which would follow
from affording MENDIZABAL a second triumph. IsTunTz
is a man of courage, and will not resign while there is the
shadow of a hope of his ultimate triumph over the dis-
affected ; but he is also a patriot, and will not sacrifice the 1
country to the gratification of his personal ambition.

The Earl and Countess of Shrewsbury have arrived
at their seat, Alton Tower, from Leamington, where they
stayed a few days, on their way from the metropolis. The
crowd of visitants to this princely place increases every day.
Its baronial armoury, its magnificent galleries of painting and
sculpture, its lofty solemn chapel, and its extraordinary gar-
dens, are unequalled.
The interview between the King and his Royal
Highness the Duke of Sussex, on Wednesday last, is said to
have been very interesting, as it was the first visit of the Royal
Duke to his Majesty since he underwent the operation for the
recovery of his sight.--Morning Post.
Lord Harborough, who recently suffered much from
ill health, is on his annual voyage in his yacht. His Lordship
generally resides in great seclusion at his seat Btapleford, hut
the lady of his love is said to have vanished from the hall, no
one knows whither.

Last week there was found, 20 feet down in the
freestone rock of Clashbennie Quarry the finest specimen of
organic remains ever yet discovered in that place. The quar-
ryman, though ignorant of its value, fortunately extracted and
preserved the specimen very perfect ; the impresssion on the
stone, which is that of a fish, is 27 inches long and 13 broad,
and is regularly mailed over with shells, like those of the cro-
codile species.—. Edinburgh Advertiser.
On Saturday a number of reapers being assembled
together near Lincoln, a person, for the pleasure of witnessing
the sport, threw a quantity of apples amongst them, for a ,
scramble, when one of them, who was down, was so heavily
pressed upon by his companions, that the blade of a clasp_
knife, which he had put into his pocket open, penetrated his
side to a great depth below the ribs, and caused a protrusion
of the bowels. He is now in the hospital in a fair way of re-
covery.

The example ought to be followed, and every Parish
Church made a " Normal school of agitation."

.The whole of the Paris Papers of Thursday have been
received. In the Journal des Debats we find the following
extract of a letter from Berne, under date of the 7th
instant :
" An express was received at nine o'clock last night, by the
Duke de Montebello, who two hours afterwards went to the
President of the Directory, and declared that if the measures
proposed to the Diet by its Committee were found insufficient,
and were not amended by the Diet, so as to produce a result
equally desirable for the Confederation and for Europe, Swit-
zerland must expect to be immediately blockaded. This step
by the French Ambassador was followed up this morning by a
similar communication from the Ministers of Austria, Prussia,
and Baden, who are said to have declared to the President that
they were come to support the declaration of France; and
added, that if Switzerland rendered coercive measures ne-
cessary, the expenses thereby created, and the indemnities due
to the people who might suffer from them, would be placed to
her account."

We are at a loss to comprehend by what right France
thus dares to menace the Swiss Confederacy with a
blockade. If she cannot defend the person of her SOVE-
REIGN without establishing a system of espionage through-
out Europe, and disturbing the internal Government of
other States, it were preferable to get rid of him by an-
other Revolution.
The liberal journals loudly complain of the silence of the
Government organs with respect to the Constitutional
movements in Spain. The Government is undoubtedly
well acquainted with the events now going forward, but as
the KING is still doubtful with respect to the expediency of
active, immediate intervention, it has probably judged it
most prudent to suppress all official accounts of the first
outbreaks in the revolutionary provinces. With regard to
the war in Spain, we find the following in the Journal de
Paris:—
" On the 3d inst. a corps of the Christino army was march-
ing on Leon. On the 2d, Gomez was within a day's march
of that town. The bands that he had left in the Asturias
and Galicia have been destroyed. General Espartero entered
Oviedo on the 3d, and the next day proceeded towards Astor-
gua. On the sth, Villareal was in the Amercoas."
Private letters from Paris state that dreadful outrages
are nightly committed in that city after dusk. The police
spend all their time in looking after, and most probably
hatching plots, instead of protecting the lives and proper-
ties of the peaceful citizens. On Monday night, Mr.
NAGLE, an Irish gentleman, was stabbed in the Rue de
Varennes, and on Wednesday morning he died of the
wound which he received. M. VIGOUREUX, the Editor of
the Bun Sens, narrowly escaped a similar fate on Wednes-
day night. Several other attempts at assassination have
taken place during the present week.
PARIS, Au°. I.—The Madrid. Journals of the 3d August
received this morning, contain no news from Seville of a later
date than the 27th July. They are still describing the fetes
celebrated on the 23d in honour of Queen Christina.
The accounts from Valencia, received by way of Perpignan,
are of the 27th July. The city was in fact closely pressed by
Cabrera, and had no communication except by sea.
The latest accounts from Barcelona are of the 30th July,
at which time nothing new had occurred.
Now, what has happened in those places since the above
date ? The telegraph might inform us, unless the communi-
cations through Arragon are interrupted, as is asserted.
The Moniteur of this morning publishes nothing important.
It is affirmed that the Government has received no news
from the Queen, nor even from M. de Rayneval. Hence it
is feared that the communications are interrupted.
Colonel Conrad will take the command of the Foreign
Legion of General Bernelle, who retires, on account of his
health, as it is said; and Lieutenant-Colonel Tosse, of the
48th Regiment of the Line, will command the new Legion.
The Minister of War has asked of Prince Czartoriski 300
Poles, to send them to Spain, where the several corps of
cavalry formed by General Bernelle, and composed almost
entirely of Poles, has distinguished itself.—Journal du Corn.
BA 1 ONNE, AITO. 6.—The Sentinelle has the following ar-
ticle :—" The kingdom of Valencia is in the most critical
situation. Quilez, and the monk Esperanza, have passed the
Tucar, and entered the rich villsges of Alcira, Carcagena,
Mogente, Alberique, and San Felipe de Xativa ; they have
likewise entered the adjoining hamlets, where they have been
guilty of excesses, at which even the banditti of the Abruzzi
would have blushed Pillage, murder, fire, &c., have left
traces which will never be effaced from the memory of the un-
fortunate inhabitants. The rebels have taken the road to Ali-
cant, loaded with gold, and mounted on magnificent horses,
which abound in that part of the province. The navy has just
103 t one of its most distinguished officers. Vice Admiral the
Marquis de Sercey, Peer of France, died last night at the
age of eighty-four years.—Journal des Debats.
The health of the Duke of Orleans, without giving ground
for serious alarm, obliges him to discontinue his excursions
with his relations from Naples. It was inteneed to put off
for a few days the little review which took place this mor-
ning, but it had been announced yesterday to the regiments
in the capital.—Estafette, July 11.
