MADRID PAPERS.

MADRID, MAY 21.—A decree, dated Aranjuez, 19th
inst., suppresses four journals, El Universal, El Na-
cional, El Echo de la Opinion, and El Tiempo ; be-
cause, says; the decree, these journals have begun to
spread 'sloctrines diametrically opposed to the conger-
lattve principles sanctioned by the Estatuto Real.
A. Vigil de Quirones has been appointed Prefect of
Madrid in place of M. Gil de Linares. Workmen are
now actively employed in preparing the convent of the
Holy Ghost, in which the Chamber of the Procura-
dores de la Reino is to hold its sittings.
The soldiers of the army of Navarre are animated
by an excellent spirit ; discharges, were sent to ail
whose time of service. had expired, and at the time of
delivering them their respective officers offered them
eight piastres to re-engage for the time the civil war
might be prolonged ; all re-engaged themselves with-
out exception, and they even refused the eight pias-
tres that were offered them. Five moveable columns
pursued Merino in the environs of Lerma without being
able to meet with him. On the 15th he was at Rivilla
del Campo, where he demanded rations ; it appears that
his troop was reduced to 80 horse, in a wretched condi-
tion, and that he was on the point of being surprised by
the combined columns of Montero and San Cristobal y
Fectal ; but he received timely notice, and was enabled
to escape by Villemel. It is said that Merino is very
weak, and looks worn out. General Rodil, command-
ing the Spanish expedition in Portugal, announced
his arrival at Castello Branco on the 15th. The Mi-
guelist Captain-General of the province of Lower
Beira evacuated the town on the 13th, with about 400
men, and on the 15th his rear guard was attacked by
Major Maldureira, at the head of 80 horse and 20
smugglers, who made several prisoners, and carried
off all the baggage of the general and those
who accompanied him. Two couriers, one with
despatches for General Rodil, and the other for the
Minister of War, have been stopped in Estremadura
by the Carlists of Cuesta. A band of Carlists, under
the command of an ex-officer of the 14th regiment of
the line, named Lopez, has been attacked and beaten
near St. Jago by a detachment of the 16th regiment.
A priest, who was second in command of the band,
was taken prisoner and immediately shot. A letter
from Cacires, dated the 12th, says that Cuesta has
returned from Portugal into Estremadura with 50
horse. On passing the Casas of Don Antonio they
burnt the house of the Alcalde. They murdered a sol-
dier of the provincial regiment of Logrono, because
he refused to cry " Long live Charles V." They
continued their march by the mountain of Guadaloupe,
and falling in with five Urban guards, they cruelly
murdered four of them, only one effecting his escape.
The Urban guards of Forremocha and Montancher
pursued Ctresta, overtook him, and routed him, with
the loss of thirteen of his men—namely, seven killed
and six taken prisoners.—Madrid Papers, May 21.
