13ARcErmNA, MAT. s.—The letters, which we
received from Tarragona give usi but very little news of a satis-
factory nature. It appears that Some disorders of rather a seri-
ous nature, and stitich are generally directed against the negros,
have taken place in that city, anti that in one of those tumul-
luotis scenes the Alcade, or Mayor, bad been wounded. Let-
ters from Satagossa give some details of the excesses to which
the Vandals of that country have given themselves up. Another
-explosion is feared, for we hear that the proclamations which
the Captain-General has addressed to the people, are but tacit
approbations of their ferocious conduct. It is confidentally re-
ported that a conspiracy has been discovered at Gerona, and it is
pretended that it was got up by the military Ultra Royalists,
.who compose a part of the depot which is in that city, and that
several amongst them went into the neighbouring villages to
-collect forces. We are still ignorant as to what was their inten-
tion ; all that I could ascertain was, that they had sent to the
'Government a courier extraordinary, without prejudicing the
other measures which they thought right to take for the present.
An armed force has been seen about the environs of Mon-
blanc, and which, no doubt, will often be seen, if we may judge
,by the reports which the Government of Lerida has addressed
to the Captain-General, in which they plainly exhibit their
'fears from the picture they draw of the direful results which
a horrible famine is likely to bring with it, and which they
are afraid the loss of the harvest will consequently entail upon
-them, anti which is already beginning to be felt.
The news of the destitution of M. Frigola, Military In-
tendant. was currently spread about to-day; this news was
generally received with joy. However, up to the present um-
'merit, there is nothing to confirm-it. The only thing which
might lead one to believe it, is, that it seems of late disputes of
a very high nature have taken place between him and the Mar-
quis de Campo Sagrado, when the latter told him that he would
put in force the powers invested in him by his Majesty for
commanding the province, and that he would remove 'him
from his employment. The Criminal Tribunal seems much
• disposed to second the effbrts of the Marquis de Campo Sagra-
do ; .as a proof, it has devised means to put down any disturb-
-ane,es which might have taken place at Pigord, from the con-
duct of some persons who are already suspected, until the
Captain-General, who had sent an address to the Court, should
-receive fresh instructions. _ _ _

At Alelins del Rey, two prisoners were condemned to fifty
blows, for having said that the Constitutional Government
would be re-established in Spain. •
The Archbishop of Creus has at last taken possession of his
Archbishoprick. All the difficulties which were raised against
...him have ceased. The Junta of Commerce of this city, desi-
-ious of propagating public instruction, wish to found professor.
ships for the Englisa, French, and Italian languages. The Ist
of July next is the day appointed for the admission of those
who wish to obtain the professorships by sustaining their thesis.
The salary of each is to be about 5,000 reals (1,250 francs) and
he who can fill two professorships at the same time will receive
a salary of 8,000 reals (2000 francs).
The Comedy l'Rcole des Viellards, which has made such a
noise in Paris, has just been translated into our language, by.
the celebrated Jean Larios de Illedronas. It will shortly be
brought forward at our theatres.
--Doctor Lusardi has already performed the operation of the
-cataract upou many of the poor, as well as upon persons who
called him in. For the most part these operations have sue-
.ceeded well.

Colonel Mata who is so well known for his fanaticism for
the absolute Government, has been made Sub-Intendant of
Police, for the town of :dater°. It appears that this nomina-
tion does not please the inhabitants of that townots the prin-
ciples of the Colonel are well known to them.
