The Madrid papers received are of the 11th
inst. The new Government had signified their in-
tention to enforce the Ayuntamientos or Corpora-
tions Bill, so unpopular with the Liberals in every
part of Spain. This will lead to fresh riots, dis
sensions, and civil broils.
The following paragraph is from the Castellano.
We trust for the honour of the Spanish nation that
no such orders as those recorded in it were given
—" The last bulwark of despotism, the fort of El
Callada de Alpuente, has fallen. One hundred and
sixty-nine prisoners were made. His Excellency
has given orders that those who surrendered, as
well as those who were taken, shall be shot, in con-
sequence of their obstinacy in not accepting the con-
ditions offered them."

The Madrid Bourse was on the 11th at 27k cash

Letters from Constantinople of the 29th ult.
state that something resembling a conspiracy against
the SULTAN had been discovered in that capital.
Of the Ulema eleven members were arrested, which
would lead to the conclusion that it was ]a conspi-
racy of Turks opposed to the reforming spirit of the
Government. The details, however, had not been
made public, as from the high rank of some of the
persons implicated: it' was feared that it would be
dangerous, in the first instance, to have recourse to
such a measure. The plot for dethroning
the SULTAN was devised by old KHOSRES
PACHA, who had contrived to draw the
SULTAN'S brother-in-law, HALIL PACIIA,
into it. From several circumstances in the
recent history of Halil, he does not seem to
be a very trustworthy person. On obtaining a pro-
mise of a full pardon from the SULTAN, he re-
vealed the plot of the conspirators, and assisted in
arresting them. Notwithstanding the promulgation of
the Hatti Scheriff, we should not be surprised to
hear that the oars of the boatmen in the Golden Horn
have come in contact with the shaven polls of a
few of the true believers, who thus have exposed
themselves to the vengeance of the Padisha—re-
viving the recollection of the palmy days of Islam-
ism, whe❑ one of the prerogatives of the SULTAN
was to cut off fourteen heads a-day without pro-
voking the questions why or wherefore, even on the
part of the Kislar Agra.
