BA YONNE INTELLIGENCE.

BAYONNE% MARCII 27.—The Madrid Gazette
-a the 20th mentions that there was the day before 'a verysplen—
,did drawing-room at Court, in honour of the Queen's birth-day,.
at which all the Foreign Ambassadors, the Grandees of Spain,
-Officers of State, Generals, &c. were present, and had the
honour of presenting their reports to their Majesties.
The King has issued a decree to recompense the regiments of
-the line in the Isle of Cuba. The preamble says—ln the midst
.of the disorganizing rebellion' which has broken out in my inter-
esting dominions in the Indies, the city of Havannah, as well
as the whole island of Cuba, always faithful to my Crown, I
found in the corps of the army there protection and powerful
assistance to stifle the factions of independence and anarchy,
which threatened to desolate that precious part of my States.
—Not only the troops of the line following the only. path of
free honour and military glory, which is that of fidelity, sheaved
-on the Bth and 9th Dec. 1i323, that they deserved to belong to
•my faithful troops ; but the provincial militia emulated them
in duty and 14,yalty, and -the battalions of Creoles and Mulat-
-toes, distinguishing themselves on that solemn occasion, slimed
-themselves deserving of my royal confidence. As a perpetual
•tntimony of my favour, and a proof how acceptable their ser-
vices have been to me, I have thought fit to order as follows:
—The substance of this order is, that the battalions of Creoles
,and Mulattoes are to have the title of Loyal, which is to be in-
scribed on their colours ; their officers to be called Don, and ,1
have personal nobility. All the other corps of the Isle of Cuba,
• whom the Captain-General, Don Vives, shall judge worthy,
-are to have tassels,.&c. of the standards of the colours of the
Order of St. Isabella. All the soldiers who were in active ser-
vice on the Bth and 9th, and other faithful subjects in the Isle
of Cuba who have particularly distinguished themselves, are
•to have a medal to be worn at the breast, with the inscription,
" The King to the fidelity of the Isle of Cuba."

The King has also decided that all ecclesiastics who may
,merit recompenses are to present their applications and claims,
-that they may be laid before the Council, which will decide
upon them. This decision is obviously designed to get rid of
-a crowd of claimants, who have no right to ask for any thing.
The Gazette announces also the nomination of Don Velen-
qine Zorilla, Inquisitor of
.the Court and Canon of Valencia,
to the office of collector of the revenues of deceased Bishops.
There was a disturbance at Madrid on occasion of reading to
• the Royal volunteers the new reA•ulation for their corps, but it
was appeased by the interference of the French- troops. On the
20th the King reviewed the Swiss regiment of the Royal French
guard; the Princes and Princesses followed in their carriages.
When the King goes to Aranjuez on the 27th, the grand head-
• quarters will be removed to that place. Orders have been
given for all the militia of that village to withdraw from it
,during the whole time that the King shall reside there. A
disturbance was nearly taking place on account of the Tragyda,
;which was played by the band of the 22a French regiment.

• An Extraordinary Gazette publishes the following. letter from
the Captain of the Hermione French frigate, to the Governor of
Carthagena,which port he entered on the 15:h, in the evening:—
"My dear Count--f come from Toulon, since which I have
touched at Algiers. I bring the agreeable news of the conclu-
sion of peace between the Dey and Spain, to which I have con-
tributed all In my power. I have got 4ri Spaniards restored to
liberty, and have them on board. I have a perfect bill of

POICIUG

LISBON, MARCH 10.-7'he Gazette announces
that the office of Secretary of State for Foreign Afthirs has
•itnueel orders to all the Poctuguese diplomatic agents at foreign
Courts, for each of them to make known, in the Court where lie
resides, that his Faithful Majesty will not recognise any loan
contracted by the actual Government de facto of Ilia de Janeiro
(these orders are in the words of the notice given by the Portu-
gue.se Minister at Ilamburgh, published some time ago.) Then
follows— .

" The same department has just sent instructions to the
;abOve-mentioned agents, that in case there should arrive in any
of the ports of tile countries where they reside, any vessel bear-
ing the flag called Brazilian, the said diplomatic agents, or the
Pnrtuguese.Consuis, shall immediately make application to the
competent Authorities,that they may not allow the use of such
.11 ag, and shall formally portest, if their application is not
attended to. They are further instructed to claim all ships of
• war bearing the said flag, and to urge that_ they be delivered up,
-since it is undeniable that all such vessels beiong to his Ma-
jesty. As for merchant vessels, his Majesty, desiring to ex-
. tend his paternal protection to all subjects, whether they be
Portuguese or Brazilians, he has decided that the Portuguese
Consuls shall protect, and act ,for the one as well as for the
•other."

On the 7th instant the Portuguese brigantine, Cancral Rigo,
'Captain Alexander Jose do Nasimento, in 53 days, from Para,
arriv6d at Oporto. Some towns in the province were in a state
of confusion, from the animosity of the Brazilians against the
Europeans, but the city was tranquil; in the port were the
ilfaranhant brig, and a Portuguese frigate..
" The Gazette of the 12th announces the receipt of the Eng-
Bah Papers, with the new Brazilian Constitution published at
Rio, on the 11th of December; the Gazette gives the outlines
of it, which, it says, prove that principles contrary to the rights
of nations still predominate there, and that the Prince is kept
~in a situation whithi prevents hint from fulfilling what he said
.in bi, Manifesto of August 1, 1822.—that the national Repre-
,sentAtives had declared his father, Don John VI., King of that
country, &C.and in his Manifesto to friendly Powers of
.August 6th the
!fine ;
same year, stating that the people of Brazil rc-
•
ear ed hirn to convoke a constituent and legislative Assembly,

because they considered his august father and King as depriv- 1
ed of his liberty, and subject to the caprices of a band of fac-
tious persons who governed in the Cortes.
Now, as the causes alleged in the two Manifestos have ceas-
ed, as the faction of the Cortes has ceased, and the King's
hands are now free, and his sole wish is to confer benefits on
all the people of the Portuguese Monarchy, especially our
brethren in Brazil, all the preceding preteits are removed, and
only perjury or blind ambition can move the factious, who,
besieging the Prince, exciting. the people by false pretences,
and full of gigantic ideas of the territorial greatness of that
country, think themselves immoveably fixed on the throne of
their chimerical independence, without regarding the destruc-
tion that ensues from the new order of things which they want
to introduce into that which is fitter for tranquillity and com-
merce, than for deriving advatage from revolutionary prin-
ciples.
