SOLEN Quiz DiCEZIR F.ILSUM AUDRAT

LONDON,
MONDAY, JULY 7, 1823.

We have in our front page given copious and
highly interesting and important extracts from
j Cadiz Papers to the 20th ult. and from Paris
L Papers of Thursday and Friday.
In Tux Sum of Saturday we expressed a sus-
picion that the Madrid accounts of the proceed-
ings of the Constitutional Government, to the
20th, had purposely left us ignorant as to the
Amportant fact of the continued deposition of
the Kim*, or of the restoration of his Catholic
MAJESTY to the exercise of his Itoyal functions.
That suspicion is now proved to have been
founded ; for the Cadiz papers shew that
mediately on the KING'S approach to Cadiz (on
the 15th), the Constitutional` Regency decreed
its own dissolution, and the KING resumed the
exercise of the Executive Power. His MAJESTY
entered Cadiz in regal state, and was met
at the gates of the city by the Constitutional
Authorities, who presented their Sovereign
with the keys, and greeted his'arrival with a
loyal and patriotic address. If the violence:
which the Cortes was constrained to impose twin
the will of the Monarch at Seville was calculated
to injure the Constitutional cause, the respectful
haste with which he has been reinvested
with authority at Cadiz, is not less calculated to,
repair the prejudice occasioned by •the
strong measures previously resorted to ; and

by proving that the Cortes contemplated no
ulterior proceedings against the KING, but
had bean solely actuated by a sense of the im-
minent dangers which threatened the Govern-
ment and the country, and by the inexorable
necessities of its situation, can scarcely fail to re-
assure the confidence of all who might have
begun to fear that the Cortes had abandon. .41 that
dignified course of moderation in which 411 its pro-
ceedings have hitherto been conducted. Theßebel
Regency at Madrid, and their French Allies, seem
to have been very well aware of this result; and
hence their concealment of the fact of the KING'I

restoratiOrti of4:glitch their own acknowledgment
that they had received intelligence from Cadiz
to the 20th,proves that they could not have been
ignorant... We haie formerly. stated, that we'
have. reasons for believing that.under these au-1
spiciofir circumstances Sir WILLIAM 'A'CotiWr
- would forthwith renew his attendance on the
King of SPAIN, as the Ambassador of this coun-
try
; and although it has been said that his Ex-
cellency has been left to the exercise of his
own discretiOn on this point, we now repeat the
expression Of, our belief, that he has: before this
removed to Cadiz.
The Constituiionnel has published- an account
of in alleged plot to carry olf the King
of SPAIN from Seiille, which is vald to have
been planned by an Englishman, and to'which
it is even pretended that Sir WILLIAM
A'CounT was privy.—As the Cadiz accounts
are totally silent respecting the discovery of any
such design, the whole story, though its principal
features are certainly very probable, is perhaps
..without withont foundation ; but, at all events, we
Cannot hesitate for .an instant to express
our utter disbelief of that part of it which
relates to .Sir WiwAst A'COUI T.
There are reports that the French General
Botra;ct has been defeated by AlonitAo,,and it
is asserted'. that die corps of LOPEZ I3ANos has
been for the second time totally destroyed.—
We must•wait for mere authentic intelligence
• respecting these alleged events before we attach
any credit to them. There are also contradictory
statements respecting the future destinatiou of
the Duke d'ANikout.x.stz, some accounts repre-
senting that he had announced his iuteutiou to
remove his head-quarters to the isle of Leon,
for the purpose
.of accelerating the operations of
his army against Cadiz, and others, on the con-
trary, intimating that he was about to return to
France!. The latter report is in some degree cor-
roborated hy the departure of the new French
Marshal LAUIIISTON for Madrid, and by the
return to Paris, from the Spanish Capital, of
M. M. MArronNAc and CAux.

On Saturday morning the '2d and 34 BattaliOns
of the Ist, Or Grenadier Regiment of Guards
(the Ist Battalion being in irelfind), were. re-
viewed in Hyde-park, by his Royal Highnesi

ground precisely at nine o'clock; they were at
first formed into a solid square, 'upon the height
above the Serpentine, mad afterwards were put
into it line of double the, which extended nearly
the whole lengths 'of the field. At eleven o'clock
his Royal Ilightiess,.who was dressed in the uni-

and mounted upon a charger, was observed en-

review order all round the field, and afterward,
fired a feu tie joie, which they performed with
great precision, and to the admiration and entire

In our Front Page, we have given copious ex

tracts from the French Papers -received since
our last. The suspicion that Russia has been
intriguing for the Balearic Islands, (for our
vigilance respecting which the Otiflamme and
other Ultra Journals were pleased to assail us
with ridicule and with the charge of radicalism,)
is strengthened by a report circulated at Bayonne
at the time of M. Pozzo DI BORGO.II passage
through that place on his return from Madrid to
Paris. It was there rumoured, it appears, that

he cession of the 13alearic Isles to Russia

has been actually granted by FERDINAWD. In
an American paper it is also stated, that the

Island of Cuba is to be ceded to France
as an indemnity fur the expenses of the war
against the Constitutional Government of Spain !
If these rumours are well-founded, it would be
curious if the opposition of Great Britain should
prevent the two Powers, who have the most dis-
tinguished themselves by their exertions against
Spanish liberty, from reaping the reward for their
friendly and disinterested services to the Spanish
Monarch.

Every arrival from the West Indies, for some

time past, has brought accounts of the violent
spirit with which the Colonists of several of the
Islands, particularly Jamaica, continue to ex-
press their dissatisfaction with the colonial ad-
ministration of the Government at home, and
with the proceedings of Parliament relative to
the condition and treatment of the slave popula-
tion. Having to contend, on the one hand, with

the difficulties incident to the danger of insurrec-
tion on the part of the Negroes, because they are
subjected to the oppressions inseparable from a
state of slavery, and on the other hand with
those arising from the refractory spirit excited

in the masters of the slaves, by the efforts of the
Government to introduce such ameliorations as
may either reconcile the Negroes to their lot, or
prepare the way for their gradual and safe eman-
cipation,--placed as Ministers are, with respect
to the West India Colonies, between these oppos-
ing difficulties, the attempts to, remedy which mu-
tually counteract each other, it must be confessed
that their situation is sufficiently embarrassing.—
Much, no doubt, will depend on the wisdom and
prudence of Parliament, to which the situation of
the West Indies will doubtless be submitted

quick or exact in its movements as on the first

been more adroit.

CORN-EXCHANGE, Dye. 29.
The arrivals of all kinds of Grain last week were consider-
able. This morning there is a good supply of Wheat front
Essex and Kent, with moderate quantities of Barley, Beans,
and Peas; but the wind being boisterous and contrary, there
is very little Corn in front other part*. Tht•re has been but
little inclination on the part t f the millers to purchase Intat
to-day, and as the price of Flour does not advance, the Wheat
trade is therefore very dull, and hardly maintains the quitia-
tions of this day so'nnight. Barley has sold freely on racier
better terms than this day week. Beans and Grey Peas art'
also rather dearer ; White Peas for grindin have advanced
2s. to 3s. per quarter; and such as will boil
well are rather
higher, *Although there are not many Oats for sale yet the
demand is only limited today, still rather better prices are ob.
tained for the few parcels that have found buyers. Clover-seed
continues to advance in price, and .llape-seed is also dearer.

There was a short Market this morning both in Sheep and

did not purchase freely, owing to the wet weather, and having
some part of their Christmas stock on hand ; therefore the
prices may be quoted much the same as last Alsrket day,.....

LIVIIRPOOL. CORN EXCEANGIB, Dec. 13.

The supply has, this week, been unusually small of all kinds
of Grain ; and, what is rather singular, the export of Wheat
to Ireland, has exceeded the import. The speculators were on
the alert throughout the week, and considerable parcels of
Wheat were taken by them, at daily improving prices ; but
tc•-day's market not being well attended, they forbore purchas.
ing. Some inconsiderable sales wero made to consumers at the
previous rise of 3d to 6d. per bushel on all descriptions. Malt-
mg Barley is scarce, and Grinding is not very plentiful ; our
quotations fully maintained. All kinds of Oats were in re-
quest, and very few samples for sale; the were 2d. to 3d. per
bushel dearer ; and Beans Is. per quarter. Flour and Oatmeal
were likewise 2s. each per pack higher. There has been some
agitation in bonded Grain, and higher prices have been ob.
tained for it.

THE EX-KENG OF SARDINIA.

Turin, Dec. ifi lf-rst N, ine P
.
No particular change in the health of its Majesty Victor
Emmanuel has taken place to-day. His Majesty slept twice,
and, on waking, felt die usual pain in his head, and likewise
a pain in. the breast; but these pains were transitory, and the
fever was inconsiderable, as well as the cough, and none of the
aymptorns very serious.
Dec. 17, Half past tight, A.M.
His Majesty has slept three timfferent timca, about serer
hoorain all; on waking he felt the:customary pain in the head,
and less strength. Tiff three o'clock the pulse was quicker,
and the heat on time akin more intense; but the .tugust patient
afterwards returned to his tbrmer state. Time cough became
rather more troublesome towards the morning, anti his Ma-
jesty took refresliMent with less pleasure than on the preceding
day.

nee, I 7 pronipg.

His Majesty has not suffered !flitch during the day. init is
rather weaker. The fever and cough are abated, and his Ala-
josty was able to take nourishment with pleasure.
Mc. In.
Last night his Majesty slept tranquilly for six hours, having
coughed only twice. On awaking his Majesty cumplabied of
pains in the head, and a slight pain in the breast. The pulse
was nearly the same.

EXTRACT FROM AN ORATION
Delivered before the PHILOSOPUICALSOCIETY in PEYIYL-
♦ANIA about the Year 171.16, on the Influence of Physical
Causes on the Mind.

4C Cruelty to brute animals iyanother means
of destroying sensibility. The ferocity of
savages has been ascribed in part to their pe-

44 culiar mode of subsistence. Mr. Hochtani
" points out in his ingenious prints the connec-
" tion between cruelty to brute animals in youth,
" and murder in manhood. The Emperor Do-
" mitian prepared his mind by the amusement of
killing flies for all those bloody crimes which
" afterwards disgraced his reign. lam so per,
" fectly satisfied of the truth of the connection
44 between morals and humanity- to brutes, that
" I shall find it difficult to restrain my idolatry
" for that Legislature * which shall first esta-
" blish a system of laws to defend them from
44 outrage and oppression."
• This desirable object has since been accomplishes by R.
Martiri, Esq. M. P. an Irish cientletnan, and an English Le.
gislature in 1820.

RUSSIA AND TURKEY.

LANSTANTINOPLE, DEC. l 5.---After several
'sittings of the Divan, it is said that it has been resolved to
-reject the demand of the Christian Powers, respecting the era.
cuatiou of Moldavia and Wallachia; and to retain there a suf.
Jicient number of troops to secure the supreme authority of the
Ottoman empire. • At least it appears certain that tholtels-
Ltfendi • has presented' an evasive note on the subject to the
Austrian linternuncio. Dschanil .E.treoi -maintained in the
Liven that the principalidei were to be considered as countries
conquered from the rebels, though it is notorious that the
subjects in these countries did not rebel, hut that the Hada-
ciuna from Russia, and attempted to establish thmselvts
there by force of arms. This new mode of reasoning adopted
by the Counsellors of the Porte, evinces their secret, but con-
stant desire to get rid of the obligations imposed by the treaties
OtKamardge, in 1771, and of Bucharest in 1812. Aecerding
to the strict tenor of those two treaties, Russia- has a right of
intervention and guarantee in the internal concerns of those two
province's.. Btit in general, divided dominion falls at the end
into the hand of the strongest. The return' of the Captain.
Poch*, without being able to announce any satisfactory news,
stillless the submission of the Mores, which he had promised,
removes all doubts respecting the final, issue of this third tam.
