MADRID, Oc•r. 3. (II y • an Extraordinary
Courier.)—The attention of all the inhabitants
of this capital, incessantly directed towards Ca-
diz, was diverted for an instant, yesterday, by
the arrival of the too famous Riego within our
walls.

So early as half-past five in the morning, es-
traordinary shouting announced the appearance
of the hero of the Tragala ; and in the midst of
an escort of the Royal Volunteers of Arguillov,
to which was joined a detachment of Spanish
troops, and some French soldiers, advanced a
cart, upon which was seated the author of all our
disasters. The escort entered by the gate of San
I3ernandino, where he was delivered to the
guard of the Count de Torre-Alta. All the ud-
jacent streets were immediately occupied by de-
tachments of infantry, and they were patrolled
by parties of cavalry, which did not permit any
person to approach the prison. One of our Jou-
rnals observes, on this subject, that if the Con-
stitutionalists had basely assassinated the Canon
Vinuesaf whilst in chains, it is only the stronger
motive for the Royalists to display their superior
moral principles, by leaving to justice the task of
punishing the guilty.
Towards evening beds were prepared for the
four prisoners. Riego told the keeper of the
prison that he expected to be treated as a Gene-
ral. 46 What !" replied the gaoler, 44 you a
General'. Do not you know that every thing is
now on the same footing in which it was before
your 7th of March of 18°0 ? Do you think that
we will acknowledge in you the price of your
treason ?" It has been Betided that Riego will
be treated as a simple Officer, at the same time
impressing upon him that even this was an act of
pure generosity on the part of the Royalists. lie
went to bed without replying.
The following are extracts from our letters
from Port St. Mary of the 28th and 29th
September :

It is certain that Count Corries. had carried a
otter from the King to his Royal Highness, in
which his Majesty considered himself so sure of
his liberty, that he begged the Prince to state by
what route he should go to meet him at his head-
quarters. His Royal Highness had already an-
swered, that the shortest .way was to cross the
Bay, and disembark at Port St. Mary's.
The following particulars we have gleaned
from persons worthy of credit at cadiz :
The propositions of the delivery of the King,
'which were made under the conditions of the
27th, are now become a motive of such ex.
aggerated demands, that they have been "re-
jected indignantly by the Duke of Angouleme,
and Alava, the bearer of it, forbidden to presen
himself again with other than pure and simple
terms of submission of Cadiz. We are assured
that the condition set on .the King's. liberty,
was the possession, during two months, tinder
the dominion of the Cortes, of the Isle of Leon,
the City of Cadiz, and all the strong places stilt
in the power of the Constitutionalists, and that
they may be permitted to traffic, and bold com-
munication with the rest of Spain and all other
countries. The madness of the revolutionists goes
so far as to require the dissolution of the Regency
of Madrid, as incompatible with the liberty of
the King, the sole legitimate Government.
The opposite parties in Cadiz are on the point
of cutting each other's throats in this unhappy
city. There is in fact no effective Constitutional
force here, except the Militia of Madrid. Those
of Cadiz consult only their repose, and the re.
sumption of their commercial occupations.—
They ridicule and disobey the exaltados offi-
cers who had been placed over them with..
out disguise. The Comniandant of the parish
of Saint Martial had assembled his battalion
before the sacred stone, and bad declared to
