All which we humbly submit to your Majesty's consider-

MENDIZABAL Administration—under date of the 11th
and 14th inst., thus describes the impression which the
military prowess, honesty, .and zeal of the Com-
mander-in-Chief of the army of operations has made
on the public mind in the capital of Spain—an im-
pression well known to, and understood by, the late
President of the Council :
" Those who were not aware of the intrigues behind the
Throne—of the clique near the Queen, which is in this
country called the camarilla—have latterly protested loudly
against the seeming inattention of the Ministry, for as the
public voice has demanded the removal of Cordova from
the army of the North, of Quesada from the command of
the Guards in Madrid, and of the inspectors, who have
the appointment of the officers in the militia, &c., the non-
compliance with this protest has been construed into apathy.
The glorious victory of General Evans has thrown into
strong relief the designing tricks of Cordova, who struggles
to insure the intervention of France at all risks, even by
the sacrifice of his country's independence. It seems ra-
ther a burlesque in the Espanol to state seriously that, on
the day of the exploit of the British Auxiliary Legion,
Cordova, by acting in , concert, had withdrawn 16 leagues
from before the Carlists into the province of Burgos. Run-
ning away from the enemy, when another attacks him, is
acting in concert ! The nomination of Rodil to replace
Cordova is therefore desired, particularly as it is now ad-
mitted that Cordova, who has declared he can do nothing
unless a French intervention take place, has thereby proved
hi, own incompetency. It is 'a remarkable circumstance,
stated on good authority, and which will contribute to il-
lustrate the character of Cordova, that he has, while Ge-
neral-in-Chief of the Queen's army, been dabbling in the
Spanish funds in foreign markets."

" The removal of Cordova from the command of the army
appears to be a sine qua non, particularly as his empiricism
and love of gambling. are said to have produced had results
among the troops. That. he has done something in having
kept the army together cannot be denied, but his strategi-
cal powers are admitted to be far inferior to his diplomatic
ones, and although a bold intriguer, it is not possible for
him to resist the actual shock. He lately very prudently
declared that the state of his health demanded his going to
'Montpelier, to have medical advice on the dangerous ma-
lady which afflicts him, of a cancer in the tongue. It
would be good for his future fame if he bad withdrawn
prior to the victory of the British Auxiliary Legion, whiCh
he treated so infamously, as well as before the Spanish
army under his command had suffered so many defeats.
His• various military movements have latterly been consi-
dered as getting purposely out of the way, in order to
enable the Carlists to obtain special advantages, and this
at a time When the state of his army, and also his supplies,
are declared to be far superior to those of his enemies."

-Had MENDIZABA L acted at first with that degree
of prudent foresight for which we gave him ample
credit, he would have stipulated, on accepting office,
that the main direction of the whole executive Govern-
ment should be placed in his hands. He was not
ignorant of the base nature of the creatures' by whom
the QUEEN was surrounded, nor of her liability to be
controuled by flatterers, intent upon nothing but the
gratification of their ambition. A wise Minister will
leave as little as possible to the discretion of the So-
vereign.

much public attention. Now, we are as much opposed
to the Age in politics as black is to white ; and hate
its unflinChing Toryism as desperately as the Times
hates consisttmey, or principle of any sort ; but ne-
vertheless we cannot refrain from doing justice to the
4,ller_ops_ spirit which has dictated the com-
ments in dues ion, aria
with the ruffianly course of conduct that the " leading"
Apostate of Europe has thought fit to pursue towards
Lord MELBOURNE, following him into the recesses
of private life, with the meanness of a hired spy, for
the sole luroose of forcing JrLsiiiwit t
terests of the party to which our characterless Contempo-
rary has sold himself. "Of Lord MELBOURNE," says
-the Age—and the Post,t he Herald, and the Standard,
to their credit be it said, speak pretty much in the same
manner—" of Lord MELBOURNE, personally, we have
always said, that he was a gentleman deservedly ho-
'noured and admired in private life by all who knew
him. His politics, however, we have always unre-
servedly condemned." This is candid—this is
straigthtforward—but what' is the language of the
Times? Does, it speak out in this honest, open
style ? Nothing of the sort. It opens a masked bat-
tery on Lord MELBOURNE, and taking mere vague
rumours for its text, argues upon them, just as
if they were truths as distinct and undeniable
as its own apostaCy. And this the Times calls
espousing the cause of morality ! Shame on such
hypocritical cant ! It is some consolation, however,
to knoW that the character of our Contempbrary—
Tory to-day, possibly Radical to-morrow—is now so
fully appreciated, that it is only necessary for him to take
one side of a question, for all honest and intelligent peo-
ple instantly to take the other. Commend us to the Times
for its superhuman ability to damage whatever cause it
undertakes to patronise. Let our Contemporary but
continue to advocate high Toryism with the same
renegado zeal which he is now doing, and we will bet
ten to one that in three years from this time there will
not be a dozen Tories left in England.

LO:TDON,
MONDAY EVENING. MAY 23, 1836

It is rumoured on 'Change that an express was
sent ye=tcrday to :via:kid, b✓ a first rate mercantile

Variof7;7millions;terling, at the price of fifty; and
likewise it is believed by many persons, with reference
to letters from Madrid, that M. MENDIZASAL will
accept office with M. IsTuniz, provided the QUEEN
will accede to the removal of General CORDOVA and
the three Inspectors-General of the army. •

Madrid Papers to the 16th inst. have been received.
There is no long,er a doubt of the dissolution of the MEN-,
DIZABAL Cabinet, and very little as to the cause which
led to that unexpected event. Not only had the Mi-
nisters demanded the removal of the three Inspectors-
General of the militia, the infantry, and the artillery—
namely, Generals SAN ROMAN, ESPELETA, and
CASASANIA, but likewise the instant removal of
CORDOVA from the Commandership-in-Chief of the
army in the north. It is possible that the REd ENT
-would have willingly consented to the removal of the
three first, had not Count A LMODOVAR, in a conference
with her MAJESTY on the night of the 11th, assured
her that without the removal of CORDOVA, neither the
Procuradores or the country would be satisfied ; and
that in the opinion of his colleagues, including the
President of the Council, CORDOVA was incom-
petent to discharge efficiently the duties of his high
appointment. The QUEEN promised to take the sug-
gestions of her Ministers into consideration, and on
the I•4th assured them that she could not consent to
CORDOVA'S removal. This brought the affair to an
immediate termination. The Ministers went in a body
to the palace and. tendered their resignations, which
were at once accepted. The QUEEN sent for Senor
IsTmuz, to whom she entrusted the difficult task of
organizing a new Cabinet. The following is a ru-
moured list of the Ministerial appointments :

We this day lay before our readers the third Report
of the Commissioners appointed to consider the state
of the Established Church with reference to ecclesias-
tical duties and revenues. This document consists of
two parts, the first of which is little more than an ex-
planation of the reasons which have induced the Com-
missioners to change their minds, with respect to cer-
tain alterations recommended by them in former Re-
ports. In their first Report they had recommended
the union of the sees of Bristol and Llandaff; but
it appears " the Clergy and other persons in the diocese
of Llandaff," depicted in such strong colours the mis-
chief which would result to them from the want of
episcopal residence and superintendence, that they were
induced to relinquish that plan. In their Second
Report they recommended that Bristol should be
united to the diocese of Bath and Wells, as it lay very
conveniently for such a junction. Here again they
were met by an objection on the part of the Bristolians,
who were as reluctant as their neighbours of Llandaff
to be deprived of episcopal residence and superintend-
ence. There was only one other contiguous see to
which Bristol could be joined, and accordingly, in their
present report the Commissioners recommend that it
should be united to Gloucester ; and, as the presence
of a Bishop is so highly prized in the West, that the
Bishop of the united diocese should reside alternately
at Bristol and at Gloucester. To this arrangement we
think the public have a right to object, on account of
the unnecessary expense it will occasion, as this Right
Reverend successor of the Apostles is to be accommo-
dated with two Palaces instead of one. Here is a piece of
useless extravagance—a ridiculous exhibition of cede
siastical ostentation, which the Report itself confesses
will render it necessary to augment the income of the
Bishop beyond what might otherwise have been re-
quired. This sense:ess recommendation requires a
complete overturn of all the arrangements connected
with the plan originally proposed. There is to be no
new Archdeaconry of .Cirencester, but in its stead an

Senor Isturiz, Minister for Foreign Affairs and Presi-
dent of the Council.
" The Due de Rivas, Minister of the Interior.

" Senor Aguirre Solartc, Minister of Finance.
" Senor Galiano, Minister of Marine.
" Senor Costazar, Minister of Grace and Justice.
" Senor Seaone, Minister of War."

It was supposed that the official announcement of
the new Cabinet was designedly postponed till after
the feast of St. Isidore, lest its publication might lead
to any popular outrage. MENDIZABAL is the idol of
the populace, not only in the capital, but throughout
the provinces. In letters from Paris, it is stated that
-the Conde DE LAS NAVAS was to be gazetted Mi-
nister of the Interior, but the accounts received direct
from Madrid, take no notice of the existence of such a
rum our. •

We only regret that MENDIZABAL did not sooner
perceive the impossibility of tranquillizing Spain, with-
out making those changes in the command of the army
which he felt it his duty to press upon the notice of
the QUEEN, so earnestly and repeatedly, during the pre-
sent month. There is something apparently culpable
in a delay -so fraught with danger. MENDIZABAL
laboured under no sort of uncertainty with respect to
the principles and the abilities of the men, whose dis-
missal he only thought proper to seek, when he was
'himself in the worst odour with the REGENT. As we
repeatedly stated, he knew Co RDoVA'S character well;
arid was moreover aware of the CAMARILLA influ-
ence, which induced the QUEEN to elevate him to a
rank so far above his deserts. MENDIZABAL was too
tardy in his movements ; and ought to have insisted
zponieoßDovA's removal, the instant he ascertained
the Intrif;uts, which the General was carrying on against
in concert with M. RAYNEVAL. The correspon-
