BAYONNE PAPERS

BAYONNE, APRIL 1 3. Laths, fro in Madtid
of the sth say, that according to accounts from Valencia,
300 armed Constituticnalists had entered Territel. At Valla-
dolid, the Royalist Volunteers have personally refused w obey
the Ordinances for their
-regulation. In the Asturias t*re are
great disorders ; the persecutions continue almost every where;
they have refusol to receive the new intendants of police sent
from Madrid. The people every where show great ripugnance
to the new laws; at 3ladrid they are much dissatisfied with the
sentences condemning wretches to death for robberies above the
value of five sous, while justice was so long blind to the greatest
crimes.—A paper printed both in French and Spanish is in
circulation at Madrid, containing the treaty between France
and Spain. This treaty stipulates that the King of France
shall leave 50,000 troops in Spain, unless he has need of them
for his own defence: the King of Spain on his side may send
the troops away if he thinks them- no longer necessary to main-
tain tranquillity. As a reason for the intended departure of-
the.French garrison, it is said that General Bourmont has ex-
press instructions not to divide his troops. It is not known
why he has made another arrangement. The School of Medi-
cine has been re-organized; eight of the most able Professors
are replaced by men less capable, but whose political opinions are
more approved. The Prince of Cassano, Ambassador from the
King of Naples, has been presented. It is affirmed that all
the remaining Royalist troops are to be disbanded. The
departure of the gardes du corps is still deferred. Gensd'arm es
are stationed all round Aranjuez, who suffer nobody to enter;
the carriages and muleteers are obliged to go a great way abut
to continue their journey. For some days past the Alguazils
have been seeking after the authors or distributors of placards,'
which are posted up early in the morning at the corners of the.
most frequented streets. In the last there was the following
-passage Royalists ! unite to- deliver the King, who is a
prisoner at Aranjuez."

BRUSSELS AND lIAMBURGII PAPERS.
BRIJSSELS, APR' 6.—By a decision of the
Alinister' for Colonial AGirs, dated the 13th, the list of in-
scription for the Society of Commerce of. the Netherlands is
closed. The following are the sums subscribed in various
cities':

Amsterdam - 34 millions Ghent . - 2 millions
Rotterdam, above 11 ditto Antwerp, above 16 ditto
Middleburg - - 2 ditto - Ostend- - - 1 ditto
At Bruges, Tournay, &e. the sums subscribed are consi-
derable. At Antwerp one house subscribed 1.500,000 florins,
a second one million, a third 840,000, a fourth 800.000, and
fifth 500,000, and several for 2,3, 400,000 florins. The amount
of the slims inscribed in the space of 3t; hours in the cities
named by his Majesty's decree is estimated at one hundred
millions of florins. Such a result demonstrates two things:
Ist. The enormous amount of capital in this kingdom ; and,
2dly, The general confidence in this great operation.
If we • may give credit to some letters front Germany, the
day is not distant when the Great Powers will recognize the
political independence of Greece, which will be created into a
kingdom. It is asserted that a new crown will be offered to a
Prince of the North : many persons, however, believe that an
Austrian Archduke will he chosen to reign over the Pelo-
ponnesus.

On the 12th April, the lightning struck a house near the
church at Eeeloo, passed through it from top to bottom, with-
out deranging any thing, and entered a school kept by a Mr.
Ledeganck. Dreadful cries immediately rose, and Ledeganck,
pale as death, came out of the school followed by 50 or 60 chil-
dren. They were followed by persons carrying five children
that were stifled, and two killed, who were immediately sur-
rounded by the mothers of the unhappy victims, when their
despair filled the air with the most distressing cries. One of
those killed is a boy of fourteen years of age, and the other a
girl of seventeen. Two out of the five others are recovered, but
three arc still in danger.
