SPAIN.-MORE EXECUTIONS.

MADRID, Nov. 11.—The last of the victims of the at-
tempt on the Palace (Don I)amaso Fulgasio) has suffered
to-day outside the gate of Toledo, almost on the spot
where Don Diego Leon fell the first sacrifice. Don 1).
Fulgosio was the commandant of the regiment La Prin-
cesa, who was overheard in conversation with General
Concha, making inquiries respecting the private entrance
to the Queen's apartment, end exclaiming, " How easy
it would be to throw a cloak over her, place her on the
crupper of a horse, an./ carry her off." When his lieu-
tenant and subteniente (Borio and Gobernado) were
condemned to death, he could not expect to escape ; and
it appears he had from the first completely re-
signed himself to his fate. lie was a fine, tall youth,
but had recently been suffering much in prison from
wounds which were still open ; and his pale and pas-
sive appearance to-day bespoke considerable corpo-
real debility, without however, any symptom of what
could properly be termed fear. In the open carriage he
was attended by a priest at each side, to whose observa-
tions he appeared to pay great attention. On alighting
he embraced both, and, finally, Senor Valabriga, who de-
fended him in council (a commandant of the National
Guard); he did not attempt to address the multitude, who
were freely permitted to attend the execution (unlike that
of Leon, when all the gates were kept shut, with a view
of preventing the conspirators escaping from the city),
but requested the officer above mentioned to speak for
him. Senor Valabriga addressed a few energetic sen-
tences to the living mass of troops and citizens who sur-
rounded him, expressive of his conviction of his poor
,friend's good intentions, ardent love of his country,
and his desire to quit this life in charity with all men.
Fulgosio then took his place mechanically, holding
in his hands a paper which the priests kad given him,
containing a picture of the Virgin, and a form of prayer
in articulo mortis. He did not attempt to give the word,
but stood like a statue, while the fatal volley was fired
into his breast. He fell gently backward, as if with the
impetus of the discharge, and never moved a muscle after
he touched the earth, his hands still holding the paper,
and joined as if in the act of prayer. His brother, Don
Jose, who has been spared, and sentenced to ten years'
imprisonment in the Mariana Islands, was escorted from
prison to-day, on his journey to Cadiz. A third brother,
Don Basilio, is at present a prisoner in that city, on sus-
*ion of being concerned in the contemplated movement
of Ramon Narvaez; and a fourth fell in the Carlist ranks
at Colmenar Veiga, during the civil war of 1837. Two
other officers of the Princesa Regiment, Teniente Don
Luis Asencio, and Subteniente Don Juan Mier, have also
been respited, and sent off to the Marianas for a similar
term of ten years, and now there remain no more poli-
tical prisoners in Madrid. Five only have fallen here
victims to the outraged law, and, it must be owned, most
justly, although, perhaps, none have regretted the sad
necessity more than he whose duty it was to command
the fulfilment of the law, and to cause its denunciations
to be practically and dispassionately enforced, perhaps
for the first time this century.
Don Pedro Chacon has arrived here from the north
to assume the military command of Madrid pro tempore,
and the determined General Seoane has been appointei-
to replace Van Helen at Barcelona, who proceeds forth-
with to assume the Captain-Generalship of Valencia,
there to supersede the authority of General Salcedo (the
second chief and Captain-General ad interim), utterly
disgraced by his recent execution, or rather military
'murder, of Don Beltran de Rio, the Carlist ex-Governor
of Morella. We are still without news from Barcelona
later than the 6th inst., at which period Van Ilalen
had possession of the heights of Monjuich (the fort
of which commanded both citadel and town) with
a small force—too small to compel the re-
volters to surrender at discretion—and he had,
therefore, contented himself with issuingein argumenta-
tive proclamation to the Barcelonese, explaining to them
that they were in a state of rebellion, and that the pro-
clamation which had been posted in the city, with the
signature of the political chief, 1)on Dionisio Valdez,
was a surreptitious document, for Don Dionisio utterly
disowned it, and said that his name had been affixed to
it without his knowledge. There are some very bad men
in Barcelona, and one, at least, very mad (although at
the head of the Junta of Vigilance), named Mlles, who
in 1823 dressed out his horse in a procession as a Grande
de Espana, with the grand cross of Carlos 111. on his
breast, and the Order of Merit of Isabella la Catolica
adorning his tail. Van Haien evidently feels it prudent
to parley with the Jimta till Seoane arrives with rein-
forcements ; and the Junta, on their part, have made a
show of obedience to the law, and have declared them-
selves dissolved, leaving, however, a phoenix Commis-
sion, charged with the completion of the destruction of
the two curtains of the citadel. Meantime Van Haien
looks idly on, having promised to await the decision of
the Regent on the subject. The rumour in town to-day
is that'Espartero will himcelf set out for Barcelona, from
Saragosn, where he certainly was on the 9th instant.
Meantime the funds keep up, and to-day Five per Cents.
sold at 27i for cash.
An incident affecting the public credit of Spain must
not be left unmentioned. Senor Surra y Rull has made
arrangements for giving the British holders of coupons
similar advantages to those enjoyed by the Spanish
creditors, who, it may be remembered, were enabled here
in June last, to convert their coupons (accumulating for
the last five years unfruitfully) into New Three per
Cent. stock, bearing interest. The British creditor either
did not know how to avail himself of the opportunity of
capitalization in Madrid et the moment, or did not suffi-
ciently confide in the promises of a Spanish Minister of
Finance to put himself to the trouble to send his
parchments to Spain. Certain it is that he neg-
lected to avail himself of the proffered loan.
However, Senor Surra, who seemed resolved that
'Amin shall recover as much of her long lost credit as
-ilde, has now arranged to open an office in London,
poss.
~,,;,„;iar so that established in Madrid last June, for the
iTec—e-rtion
.of the over-due coupons, and delivery of new
*object, Senor Mendieta will proceed

par with the Spanish one on the ne.lt pay-day, the Ist
of January, 1842.

It is pleasing to perceive that this 3
mean time taking strict precautions to preserve
nomise the national property in forests, mountaine.; &c•,which have for many years past fallen into very ;;:td
hands, and now require measures even of great severity
to effect their preservation. Spain is still rich, but her
Ministro de Haciendo must, to render her riches avail-
able,
make " war to the knife" on a host of corporate
harpies who prey on her vitals.
The following important Address upon the events of
Barcelona has been just presented to the Regent by the
officers of the National Guard of Madrid:—
" Sir—The chiefs of the National Guard of Madrid
believe it to be their duty to address your Highness in
the present critical position of the country—not for the
purpose of making known to you the sentiments which
animate the corps which they command, for those must
be well known to your Highness, but to remind you that
they shall ever prove au impregnable bulwark against
the efforts of all enemies of the Constitution, no matter
how they may seek to disguise themselves ; and that you
may reckon with security upon their determination to
control and punish those who in any way infringe upon
or attempt to destroy that Constitution.
"The enemies, Sir, who but a few days ago sought to
rob us of those institutions which we have purchased
with our blood, are already vanquished ; it is equally
necessary that those who disobey the laws, and give uni-
versal scandal by their conduct—who have committed ex-
cesses which the true:friends of freedom have beheld with
the deepest regret—should, in like manner, be subdued
and punished.
Excusable it may have been in the patriotic and well-
meaning portion of society, when alarmed by the prospect
of a retrograde insurrection, to unite and arm themselves
in defence of the institutions of the country ; but this can
never be the case with those Juntas which, formed at first
for sacred objects of this kind. subsequently run into ex-
tremes unfortunately too well known to all, and which, to
spare your Highness's feelings, the subscribers to this ad-
dress decline to enumerate. A scandal of such magnitude,
and which
,ebyeeatoloefr
must make us appear in the Europe
unworthy unworthy of freedom, cannot, in any way,
we are to have a government, if we are to hate
political
institutions in reality, and if we are to appear worthy
of them, it is indispensably necessary that the Govern-
ment shall treat with equal severity these newenemies,
as they have those who recently rebelled in an
opposite
sense. By this course alone can that peace which the
country desires be secured, and the nation arrive at that
prosperity and happiness which it deserves.
" Your Highness is well aware that the National Mi-
litia of Madrid have never spared any sacrifice in the
maintenance of the Constitution ; and you should also
know, that as they have sealed with their blood their
oaths on the 7th of October, they are prepared to repress
those lamentable excesses and abuses committed by some
of the towns of Spain ; for their motto is the Constitu-
andtheir enemies those who violate it." _

Here follow the signaCuTes-ol the officers of the eight
battalions of infantry, two squadrons of cavalry, and two
batteries of artillery, of which the National Guard of
Madrid is composed.

TRANSPORTATION SCHEME.—We have ob-
served some ominous symptoms of a design on the part
of the bread-taxers, to get rid of the clamours of a starv-
ing people, by sending them to our colonies. Death is
not doing the work of the bare-bones Ministry fast
enough ; they are determined to resort to the second
punishment in the criminal code, by transporting a few
thousands beyond the seas. We hope that the suffering
people will be allowed to have a voice in the
,selection of
those, so-called .emigrants. Why should we not beoin
the process of thinning our ranks, by shipping
cargoes of the bread-taxers to the antipodes ?—Anti-
Bread-Tax Circular.
Within the space of eight or ten days as many
as fifteen persons have been committed to prison from
the neighbourhood of Bradford, on charges of felony.
Early on Tuesday morning the ground was
covered with snow between this town and Margate, two
or three inches thick, the sun shining as the day ad-
vanced it has disappeared. By arrivals we learn the
French hills between Calais and Boulogne have also
been covered with snow for the first time this season, the
weather having set in cold with frost two or three days
past,—.Kent Herald.

Minister Plenipotentiary of his Majesty the

Majesty is grieved to behold a wrong interpretation c
his acts, the sole end of which is the prosperity of
Duchy of Luxemburg, by attributing to the non-rat is -
cation of the Treaty of the Bth of August a political e Iq
which it has not. Peace reigns in Europe, and nothii .
exists from which we may argue it will be tronblet.
Thus every Sovereign may conclude commercial treaties
according to his own will and interest, end without corn• •
promising. his, friendly relations with other Sovereigns. ;
The Duchy of Luxemburg has three neighbours ;if it ;
accede to the Customs' Union, it will no longer be free •
to enter into commercial relations with France cr Bel- •
gium, which has been proved by the refusal of the Prus- •
sian Commissaries on the Ist of Auguat of the King
• Grand Duke's demand for a diminution Of the tariff re-
lative to'Belginm, but such a one as should assure to
Luxemburg the advantages accruing to her by virtue
of the law of the Gtb of June, 1339, and which are
vital to the Grand Duchy. M. de Scherff, in conse-
quence, received from his Sovereign the order sent from
the Hague on the 7th August, and which arrived at Ber-
lin on the 10th of the same month, declaring that, until
such advantages were conceded to the Grand Duchy the
Treaty would not be ratified ; to which the' Prussian
Commissaries answered, Ratify first, and then we will
negotiate.' But had the King so acted he would have
altered his independent position as a Sovereign for that
of a Member of the Customs' Union ; •nd being before-
hand bound, could not have treated with Belgium other-
wise than through the medium and with the consent of
the Union, which position he could not accept. The
Report also is incorrect, inasmuch as it states that in the
Grand Duchy one party only refuses the Union, whereas
one party only has declared in favour of it, and the grand
majority of the country is opposed to it. This is the
conviction which his Majesty attained during his stay in
the country, and which has not arisen from the explana-
tion of the Luxemburg Commission assembled at the
Hague at the period of the new signature of the Treaty
of the Bth of August, and this conviction was further
borne out by the number of addresses of thanks for the
non-ratification sent in daily to the King from the
Grand Duchy.

" The King declaros that he cannot ratify the Treaty
of the Bth of August, but he does not think he is acting
against any right, which cannot exact that a Sovereign,
being persuaded that a treaty signed by his plenipo-
tentiaries is contrary to the interests of those for whom
the negotiation is effected, believing as he does, his sig-
nature to be merely a matter of form. In this case the
refusal to ratify is an act of conscience, and the King
would he weak to sign a treaty which he considers con-
trary to the welfare of his subjects. The King Grand
Duke is ready to conclude a treaty with Prussia or with
the Union, as also especially with Belgium and with
France, but the King, regulating his commercial
interests with Belgium and with France, does not
intend to adhere to a Customs' Union which would
change the independent position of Luxemburg,
and comprmaise its relations with the Germanic Con-
federation. His Majesty merely intends to assert his
rights as a Sovereign in negotiating commercial treaties
with his neighbours, so that the material interests of
his subjects, which need facilities, especially with the
Grand Dachy incorporated with Belgium, and separated
from the actual Grind Duchy in 1839, only may be t&cen
into consideration.

" These two parts of the country are absolutely in
want of these facilities, as their interests are reciprocal,
and they have never been separated for centuries ;
and the treaty concluded by the Great Powers for the
Low countries has separated these interests by a supe-
rior force. However this commercial position will in no
way interfere with the political system of the King
Grand Duke, who will continue to remain faithful to his
opinions and duties as a German Prince.
" Another circumstance is deserving of particular at-
tention, viz., the private correspondence between the
King Grand Duke and his Majesty the King of Prussia.
This correspondence is not couched, it is true, in the
usual forms of diplomacy, but the very first letter which
was sent by the King Grand Duke to his Majesty the
King of Prussia, and which was delivered to him by a
General, who brought back the answer from his Prus-
sian Majesty, had for its object to solicit at least the tacit
assent of the King of Prussia to the non-ratification
before he adopted any resoltition whatsoever. and laid bare
with unreserved candour the embarrassments which the
signature of the treaty would have caused the King
Grand Duke. The answer of the King of Prussia could
not possibly be viewed in any other light than as per-
fectly acquiescing in the wishes of the King Grand
Duke, and then, and not till then, did he take the despe-
rate resolution of not ratifying the treaty. It was not
until several weeks after this, and when the official rati-
fication was notified to the Cabinet of Berlin, that the
King Grand Duke received a second letter from his
Prussian Majesty, explaining away the contents, and
modifying the expressions of his first letter.
"Another observation remains to be made. It is
frequently reiterated in the Prussian document, that
the Low Countries desired the accession of the Grand
Duchy of Luxemburg to the Union. In the amicable
relations which have so long existed between Prussia,
the Low Countries, and the Customs' Union, no change
whatever has been effected; and other expressions, which
prove beyond a doubt that Prussia was well aware that
ever since 1839, negotiations concerning Luxemburg
had been carried on for Luxemburg, but without any
knowledge of the inhabitants of that Duchy that her
fate had been decided by strangers. The King Grand
Duke has deemed it his duty to his subjects to put a
stop to this state of things, and has called upon them
to co-operate in the regulation of their affairs. This.
change in the state of things has greatly contributed to
change the opinion of the King Grand Duke on the
wants of the Grand Duchy. The Chamber of Com-
merce, amongst others recently instituted at Luxemburg,
has just shown its gratitude to the King Grand Duke
for his non-ratification, in an address signed by two-
thirds of .its members. (Signed) " STIFF."
