A communication dated the 9th instant, was sent by
the Government to the Home of Representatives, respect-
ing the measures taken with regard to the press.
On the 12th at mid-day, the Government forwarded a
communication to the President of the House of Repre-
sentative•, requesting him to convoke the Members, in
order that the House might take into its consideration an
affair of a serious and important nature, the particulars
of which the Government stated it would forward within
two hours.
In consequence of this convocation, the house assembled
at five o'clock on the same afternoon, and continued with
closed doors deliberating upon the communication for•
warded by the Government, till eleven o'clock at night.
The result was the nomination of a conciliatory commis..
sion, and the transmission of a note to the Government,
of the following tenor :--
" That the representatives of the province bad read,and
seriously considered the contents of the note which
the Government had rent ; and, animated with the
sacred interest which the preservation of the pub-
lic peace now so unfortunately threatened required,
they believed they fulfilled their duty in occupying
themselves as they had now done in a permanent sitting
in order to procure the object in question, it being as
primary as it was necessary, and to guarantee the public
rights. The House of Representatives was again convoked
on the 14th inst., and a vote was read from the Govern-
ment, dated the 14th, stating that the seditious were ac-
tively and openly employed against the legal authority,
that they had despatched a party to depose the Mili-
tary Commandant of Ensenada, and taken possession of
the armament there, and at sun-rise that morning had
proceeded even to the chill of the Convent of San Do-
mingo, breaking the line of their first position without the
previous knowledge of the Government ; thence they went
near to the hospital for men headed by Bernardino Cabrera
who, eight days before, had been released from the public
prison ; that he committed many excesses, taking away
the horses belonging to the Government, preventing
some droves of cattle from entering the town, spilling the
milk intended for the use of the city, &c., &c. ; that the
Government, which is alone responsible to maintain the
public tranquillity could not remain inactive; that the House
must be aware of the necessity of instantly stifling all
attempts at sedition ; that toleration, under such circum-
stances, might plunge the country into irremediable evils ;
and that the Government was not disposed to omit any
means, within the sphere of its attributions, to suppress
the anxiety Which prevails.
The House of Representative forwarded a communica-
tion to the Government, dated the 15th inst., in answer
to the above, stating that when they advised the Govern-
ment not to take the offensive against those citi-
zens wbo were in arms against the legal autho-
rity, until the answer of the conciliatory commis.
sion had been received, they bad no idea that it
should be taken as an absolute prohibition to the Go-
vernment to assume that authority which was necessary
to maintain the public peace, that the present corn.
munication had been referred to a committee, &C.
OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS.
A communication, dated Lugan, 13th inst., from
General Juan Izquierdo to the Minister of War, states
that on receiving the Minister's note, ordering him to
proceed with Lis regiment to the capital to support the
authority which was threatened by the troops of Captain
Benavente, he had instantly issued the necessary orders,
and notwithstanding he was scarcely convalescent from a
severe illness, he would, at the sacrifice of his health, do
anything in his power, whatever might be the mode o

Extract of a letter, of the 23d instant, from
Chambery :—" It is calculated that there are 160 persons,
without exaggeration, either accused of, or condemned
for, political offences, now confined in the citadels of
Turin, Alexandria, Fenestrella, and Ivrea. Genoa has
supplied the majority of them. Savoy and Nice have been
lightly visited, owing to the vicinity of France, and the
facility of escape which this affords. Some alleviation of
punishment is expected for the prisoners who are the least
compromised, but all hope of a general amnesty is given
up. Dilatory demonstration on the part of France has,
it is said, made Austria renounce the idea of occupying
Montferrat and the Novarrais, which the Cabinet of Turin
was ready to open to them. Indeed, a French invasion
could have no other result, under existing circumstances,
than that which the enigmatical expedition of Ancona has
had for the Pontifical States—it would lead our country-
men to indulge in imprudent manifestations, which we
should pay dearly for, after the departure of the French."
SOMETHING ROMANTIC.—Some years ago
a Captain of a corsair carried off the wife of a poor wood-
man, in the environs of Messina. Having kept her
several months on board his vessel, the pirate landed her
in one of the South Sea Islands, and abandoned her to her
fate. The savage Monarch of the island, to whom she
was brought, became so enamoured of her that he married
her according to the customs of the country, placed ber
by his side on the throne, and when he died, left her the
sovereignty of his dominions. A European vessel, lately
arrived from a voyage to America, has not only brought
to the poor woodman this intelligence of the fate of his wife,
but has also brought presents from her of sufficient value
to make him one of the richest private individuals in
Sicily, until it shall please his Royal spouse to call him to
her Court.
