FITYCZILDA, FEB. 3.—We have this instant received the
'news, that at live o'cloCk this morning the forts of the Seo
":trEirgel have been given up to the Constitutionalists. The de-
' "tails of this business are not kuovin, but it is said that the gar-
rison saved themselves, and that the COnstitutionalists are in
pursuit of them. Nothing is heard in this town but songs of
triumph, music,- and` ringing of bells, from joy at this fortu-
i;•- rate event. We can now say that in Catalonia the faction is
extinct. I have not time to tell you more, because joy pre-
. -'vents me writing. I shall Inform you of more particulars by
the ordinary courier. . _

" P.S, Recruits arrivein great multitudes in Catalonia."

" PERPIONAN, FEU: 5.--It was said that the communica-
tions with Spain were broken off according to otders given at

',eight o'clock this morning ; but the Custom-ho Use officers have
received no such order, and the Prefeergave out passports for
fipain this morning.

talions of the 32d, and to the squadrons of the 12th Chasseurs,
to march to-day for Cerdagne, and they have left. General de
Vence is to set out immediately for that place, and General
Dosson is to establish his head-quarters at Collioure. General
'Peceadetre has established his at Ceret. The report was spread
'that our *Wien; were to occupy Puycerda, but this report is
without foundation.,
"'To-triorrow the firit company 'of 'horse artillery is to re-
ceive a complete battery, composed of six 'eight-pounders and.
two howitzers, .six caissons, for the howitzers, and twelve for
the guns, a forge, &c., in all twenty:eight teams 'of six horses.

" I have already told you, that Misas was come to calm
the refugees, and incorporate them with his band. it. part of

in motion ou the 2d, to' enter Spain by the ,Corde Matrem ;
-but they were so warmly received by the militia, that they re-
turned yesterday to Arles, unckon -the 'seine day took up their
former quarters.
" Yesterday the militia of Jonquere went to attack the bands
of guerait at &joie, and pursued them as far as the Col de
Lid, whith separates France from Spain. The factious took

'refuge it the French territoty, after having lost 15 men. Some
of their wounded were carried to Ceret. Thia affair caused

he 4 been a COW111(81011 ill the town,lieedell by
gorilla, in consequence 'of which San Miguel.
.and three other Ministers had been _displaced.
There is no, truth in, these- reports. The ad.
ventorer,(4essi4es.) is: flying before the Constiiu
annalists, and. a
.t..nurier recently arrived from
.Madrid informs _us, that the prospect of war: lied
united all parties in.that capital, and that _nod
thing was thought of but the defence of the

country. Addresses pour hi from the towns to
the Cortes, and numerous levies are organising in
all parts of Spain.
The speech delivered by M. Duvergier de
liauranne, in the Chamber of, Deputies, on the►
motion for an-Address, has been published, and
we find in it the following passages :

" I have already said, Gentlemen, that we shall probably
make ourselves masters of Madrid, but there our dangers will
begin, and there we shall first find ourselves in a singular situa-
tion ; if we support the re-establishment of absolute power,
we shall have some partisans, and many enemies ; if we com-
mand the establishment of a •Constitution somewhat similar
to that of France and of England, we shall have only enemies.
" Whatever side we may adopt, we shall be forced to occupy
Spain militarily for a long time ; we shall naturally seek to
diminish our expences in making the Spaniards contribute, and
very soon the other inconveniences of an occupation by fo-
reigners will arise, the petty vexations of each day, which will
offend the national pride of the Spaniards.
" Two distinguishing features may be remarked in the Spa-
nish character, viz.—The most decided ?wired of all Amiga do-
?ablation, and a tenaciousness of resistance. A general revolt
will break out sooner or later, even your pretended friends will
turn against you, the Guerillas will carry on a bloody war
against you—beaten to-day, they will re-appear to-morrow. The
harrassed army will be ruined by its daily losses, reinforce-
ments will be continually necessary, and new levies in France
will exhaust our Treasury. We may be reduced to make a
precipitate retreat

" But, (lentlemen, latUSe.Tai-tiii.-ui• eyes over what will be
going on in France during this time. Do you not see maritime
commerce nearly annihilated —incistry and manufactures
checked or wholly stopped ? Do you not see taxes augmented,'
discussion Of the motives and results of the war become more
animated, and discontent general ? Let'us suppose that we are,
without allies, what disorders may not arise, what rebellions not
break out? But how will. you suppress them when the interior
is destitute of troops ? El,i it not evident that great perils await
the Monarchj, ?
" I have considered the question, hitherto, only in relation to
France and the Triple Alliance.; but I shall now submit to
you some observations on the policy which England may pur-
sue. She has an evident interest that the Powers of the North
do not acqUire a preponderating influence in the affairs of
the South of Europe. It it of consequence to her to hinder
the troops of the Triple Alliance from occupying Spain, and
remaining in France. But, if the war breaks out, England
will be &idea by her interests. Even, in declaring her-
self neutral, she will preserve a half-hostile attitude. Our
Merchants and Ship-owners will be afraid of engaging in coin-
mecca, and England will make herself mistress of all the trade
of the Levant, of Spain, of Portugal, and of North and
South America. She will forestall us every where, and when
peace returns, the etlbrts of our merchants to renew our com-
mercial relations, will be fruitless ; habits will be formed ; the
English, with whom we have now so much trouble to compete,
will be every where masters of the field of commerce. We shall
be thrown back 20 years. But may we hope for a strict neu-
trality ? I shall point out to the Chamber two points of discus-
sion, which will soon give rise to disputes--I mean the right of
search and of blockade. •

•' People are much afraid of privateers, and though in my
Opinion the danger has been exaggerated, because maritime law
requires that the proprietor, the captain, and three parts of the
crew, shall be subjects of the beltigerent Powers. It cannot,
however, be denied that vessels fitted out under false colours
may be dreaded, and that piracy may he practised. Pirates
and privateers conceal their guns, and display u friendly tlag ;
the only means of carrying on a war against them is the
right of search, because they are forced to defend themselves
Or run away. On the other hand this right is necessary to
ascertain if vessels carry warlike stores. Do you believe,
Clentlemen, that the English, who practise the right of search
so rigorously when it is useful to them, will Patiently sub
mit to it in their turn from us ! It may be feared that this will
not be the case.

The llionileur of Thuisday contains an ordi.
nance for raising M. de Legarde to the dignity of the Peerage,
with the title of Baron. The Duke of San-Lore•nzo the
Spanish Ambassador, left Paris et five o'clock on Wednes-
day afternoon for London. His Excelleney will travel slowly
on account of the ill.health of the Duchess, on whose account it
chiefly that he visits England. It is understoood to be the
Duke's Intention to repair almost 'lmmediately to Madrid.

tenon rut CONSTITITTIONNEL, PER. 14.
The news which we received from Madrid of
the Bth inform us that the Spanish Ministry were
no sooner informed of what had passed on the
opening of the French Chambers than they pro-
posed the following Decrees, which were in-
stantly approved of :-
1. A new levy of Men.
" 2. The immediate fitting out of 150 gun-boats.
" 3. Authorisation given to the Government to permit to
friendly potent; the free introduction of their produce..
4. The disposal of the national property by private sales.
" b. The disposal of the produce of the revenue of the mines
and other objects applied to -national credit.
" ti. The obligation of every province to provide by all pos.
.fleble means for the arming, equipping, and other necessary re.
luisitions for each partial contingent."
The most perfect tranquillity prevails in Madrid. Three
corps, d'oryptre are forming ; the army of Catalonia, which will
continue to be conimsnded by General Mina ; the army of
Navarre and /Wagon cotnmanded by Gen. Hallasteroa; and the
army 'of reserve under the orders of Abisbal.

[ritual MAWCAIB.]
The speech at opening the- French Chambers has awakened, at
,lilatiridovith a new force, the feelings caused by tleppublicationof
the Notes of the Powers of the North and France. One:sentiment
roarfifested itself in all classes of the population—the resolution;
of defending, at the expence of every sacrifice, the Constitotion.
of the Monarchy and the independence of die country. The
Cieverrintenp appears disposed to second; by energetic means,_
the ganeroua impulse of the citizens. There has been remark.'
ed, m themessures of defence proposed to the Cortes, a dis.

position full of wisdom; and perfectly suited to the ancient
habits of Spain, .the confiding to each Province the care of pro-
viding at its own
~.Ixpenetevery thing required for the wants of
the moment and the defence of the territory.
( From the Jenrnal des &bats.)

This Paper gives the project of law proposed to the Cortes in
the Siting of the 7th, the heads of which we have already ex.
tracted, and then the following account of the Debate on it:--

"M. Rolm() opposes the Decree—l am far from wishing
to refuse the, Government the necessary force to defend our
libertiei, but it appears to me that we ought to have already a
sufficient armed force. In 1821 the army was 58,000 men ;
with the two kicks decreed in 1822, one of 7,000, the other of
30,000, the army ought to be 87,000 men. Add the active
militia, which is 58,000 men, we shall have a total of 140,000
• men. Supposing that losses, See. have reduced this number to
128,000 men, we ought to have still some thousands above the
maximum recognized. and fixed by. the Government itself at
122,000 men.
" The MtNISTE: it of Wan.e-Asjto the levies in some of the
• Provinces of the North, it has not been possible to carry them
into complete effect; instead of producing 30,000 men, we have
in reality only raised hitherto 22,706 men. We have also
had some losses in consequence of the war we have been
obliged to carry on against the factious. In short, we
want a larger force than in the case of an -Ordinary war; we
must be ready to repulse the foreign enemy, and we must
continue to keep down the civil war kindled in several parts of
the territory.
M. VALDEz—We have to defend the national independence
and the political existence of Spain. If the Government had
demanded fifty thousand men instead of thirty thousand, I
should have, granted them. There will be no harm in increasing
the army to 200,000 men. 'We must not speak of what it pos.
sible or impossible; when the object is the salvation of the
country.
"M. GoszaLEZ.ALowzo—l believe the levy rather under
then above our want'. I should have pyeferred torty thousand
men. It would also he pendent to withdraw for the moment into
the interior provinces the manufactories ()farms, which unfortu-
nately are placed hear the threatened frontier.
"..M. BECURA having demanded that a day be fixed for the
deawinee, and that the only sons of widows be excepted.
M. CANGA would find these amendments useful at an.
other time. said he, ' let us lose no time, and do not let
us delay an instant the promulgaticin of this Decree. Already
the war is commencse The vanguard of the Army of inva.
sion is already in Spain. For it is .merelyak a vanguard of the
enemy that we must consider those bands ofassasainsebrigands,
criminals of all sorts, united under the name of Army of the
Faith. These j?otas are but the light troops of the enemy.
The' Spaniards are united. The Spaniards' do not make war
against each other. King Ferdinand will march the first to de.
fend the Constitution he has freely and spontaneously sworn
to. If the invading army invoke the God of St. Louis, we will
invoke the God who protected the Spanish arms at Ronceevalles
and in the day of St. Quentin ; we will invoke ,the God of Jus..
tice and Victory.' " • j
The Minister of Finance proposes the authorising the Go. .j
vernment to take grain in payment of arrears.
The Spanish Journals are tilled with observations more or
less bitter on the Speech of the King of France; which arrived
at Madrid on the Stii. The Universal says that King Phillip.
V. on ascending the throne, had sworn to preserve the laws of
the kingdom, and had therefore admitted that the Constitution
did not emanate solely front the will of the Monarch.

BAYON:4E, FEB.. 7.--7 We have received the
following accounts from Yruu The Speech
of the King of France at the opening of the Ses-
sion. was calculated to irritate all parties in Spain,
except those wretched beings who have sought an
asylum in France,'and who have now no influence
in their own country. The Constitutionalists of
both parties, the Moderates, the Anilleros, and
the Afrancesados, will none of them agree that
Ferdinand' shall be free to. give to his People in-
stitutions which they can only receive from him ;
so that the union of parties is accomplished ; and
as for the rest of the nation, all will be ready to
repel the enemy, should he venture to appear on
their territory. 4 call from the National
ltc-
presentation will suffice to raise the Nation in a
mass, to form as many armies as there are pro-
vinces. Scarcely was the King's Speech known
at St: Sebastian, Tolosa, .Balboa, Vittoria, Lo.
grotto, and Pampeluna, when the indignation of
the
,citizens was at its height. " The Constitul
tion or death I to arms to repulse the enemy !"
is the general cry in all these countries ; so that
Torrijos having manifested his intention to or
ganize the National Guard in the latter place,
hitherto a focus of corispiracy, 400 citizens came
to ask for arms. The same General having ra-
salved to open a road across the inaccessible
mountains. of Navarre, for the purpose of sending
artillery to batty, above 800 inhabitants offered
.their services in this labour, which makes us hope
that, within a Week, that little fort, the only
support of the Defenders of the Faith, will be in
the power of the Constitutional troops.. Moreover,
the nines of Bastan, Linn, Erro, Achescoa,
Salsos, Roncal, Anso, &c. which have hitherto
sheltered the factious, have taken arms en masse,
and, protected by a column of 1200 Constitu-
tionalists, have succeeded in expelling the bands
of Juanito and SantorLadron, which are cloSely.
pursued by the Pastor. The same activity isobserved
in other parts, and every body deserts the cause of
the Serviles at the approach of datiatr. At Pempe-
tuna, Logrono, Vittoria, and BOLL, they are ex-
ercising, about 6000 recruits who have arrived.'
there, most of whom are already able to load and
iire their pieces, their Officers buying confined
themselves for the present to this one essential
point. The National Guards acquire:every day
fresh vigour, and the people of Bllbottin parti--
611:4, animated with an enthusiasm not to be
described, have all sworn to join the army if the
country is invaded. BiliMa has a National
Guard of 700 men, most of them rich merchants
and proprietors, who will be followed by the
rest of the population."---The courier who is just
passed through this city for Madrid, on hiSway
to Paris, stated that the
.Speech of the King of
France, whiCh Was'knoWn at Madrid on thue 3d,
had produced a salutary effect ; the more so as,
on account of the affair of Bessieres, there were
at least 15,000 ConstitutimialiSts under arms in
Madrid and the neighbourhood. General indig-
nation was excited,- and it was expected that a
decree of the' King would be immediately issued,
prohibiting the entrance of French vessels into
the ports of the Peninsula, the adjacent islands,
and the Colonies,' as well as all commercial inter-
course by land.. The Constitutionalists having
recovered from their alarms, pursue liessires,on
all shies ; and when the courier left Madrid on
the 4th, in the-evening, it was stated that he had
been coMpletely beaten near' Sacedon by the
troops of Abisbal. The news from the frontiers
have drawn the attention of the OffiCers of the
y
Staff of General Antichamp; they will : he cen-
vinced that the will ;tot' be so.well received in
Speln as they imaginetL M. Beloce, the Secre-
tary of our Legation at Madrid, has just arrived
at Bayonne ; only the French Consul General
now remains in the capital. We haVe several
French and Spanish merchants from the frentierS,

The Special Committee, to which the propositions made by
the Government in the Sitting of yesterday had been referred,
made a report. It was allowed to lie for some time on the
table for the inspection of the Deputies, and then read by one
of the Secretaries in the following terms:—

"rise Committee must, in the fast place, observe to the
Cortex, that the making the force in the project 27 men s'-„ort
Of the 30,000 required, is far froin being occasioned by all
opinion that the Government ought not to have the force which
has been demanded, but is done to avoid the inconvenience of a
new repartition for the provinces, and to enable the towns to
avail themselves in this levy of the repartition which was formed
for the last pinta.
" The Cartes Extraordinary, exercising the powers granted
by the Constitution, have decreed as follows: 1. The army shall be placed on the war establishment by
a levy of 29,973 men.
ni2. Each province shall contribute to this reinforcement the

the temporary division of the Spanish territory of the 27th of

the maritime provinces, in the following manner :

patriotic unanimity which prevails among Spa-

The intelligence brought by the French Papers
is interesting. The Constitutienne/ contains a con-
firmation of the capture' of the forts of Urgel by
General MINA. .The article from Bayonne
describes the enthusiasm which hass been excited
amongst the Spaniards, by the hostile language
and indefensible propositions contained in the
Speech,of the King of France.

The Constitutional Governments of Southern
Germany appear determined to maintain with
firmness their independence against the preten-
sions of Austria. It is well known that the
Kings of WURTEMBEHG and BAVARIA. ba.Ye ex-
pressed their sentiments very decidedly on this
point. Report says that the Grand Alike of
Annmsmor said a few days ago to a dis-
tinguished literati The Constitution of my
Country Is good ;and as long as I live I will main-
tain it inviolate in all its integrity."

The following is an Extract

" VIENNA, FEB. 4.—The reports of the ap.
preaching war between the European Powers and
the Porte have for years engaged the attention of
the public in all countries, and deceived therm
There is no war against the Porte. The war be-
tween France and Spain will, it is said, be im-
mediately followed by an European war: Aus-
tria, Russia, and Prussia, have already broken
off their relations with Spain ; the French Ma:
nifesto will be the signal for a general explosion.
The Courts of Austria,'Russia, and Prussia, have
held at Madrid a language which revolutionary
insanity may misconceive, which narrow policy
may disapprove, but which a more profound po.
licy can only respect. This language was not a
declaration of war ; the recal of a mission was
not an act of hostility."

in some of the Papers, entitled 44 LEGAL MUNl-

of the Lotto CHAIICtLLOH, With respect to a

without foundation.
Mr. ROMER, who has been so conspicuous in

still more humble walk in life.
