SPIRE, Nov. 11.—The account of the proceedings of
the provincial circle of the Rhine, for the year 1832, has
just been published. It contains—first, the resolution of
the Government, on the proposals of the Council; and at
the end, the Government adds:—
" As much as we formerly took pleasure in giving as-
surances of our favours to the provincial Council of the
circle of the Rhine, so much are we now grieved at being
obliged to reprove the arrogant language used in the spe-
cial protocol of the deliberations of the provincial Council
of the present year, which convinces us that the Council,
insensible to our beneficent intentions, has not re-
mained a stranger to the artful excitement which has
been produced in the minority of the inhabitants of the
circle of the Rhine. We must severely reprimand the
term concession which the Provincial Council has under
its financial resolutions. The law of the 16th of August,
1828, gives to the Provincial Council only a right of ex.
amining and presenting subjects of complaint.
" We must not permit an infraction of this law even
though it were only in form.
" We must also decidedly disapprove the opinions which
the Council has expressed towards respecting the prepara-
tions for the festival at Hambach, and the mode of execut-
ing the third constitutional edict.
"It is the duty of the Government to defend the Consti-
tution against every attack. The projects of the party
which has ventured to show itself openly in Germany also,
are now exposed to the judgment of the public ; the events
at Hambach have removed the veil even from the eyes of
the Members of the Provincial Connell, who to our great
dissatisfaction slid not hesitate to attend that fete. We
confidently rely on the approbation of all the real friends of
the Constitution by ordering (as we do by these presents)
both our Regency of the said circle and our Attorney-
General, to continue, regarding only their duty, to apply
the measures of prevention and repression prescribed by
the 3d. supplementary Article of the Constitution. They
will continue to interpose with force against all interruptions

of the publla tranquillity, They will oppoe with must on orgy
the efforts which for the::: I..l,,liteen months have hazarded
in so inexcusable a manner the tranquillity of the circle of
the Rhine,--efforts which evidently had nothing less than,
the overthrow of the Throne, of the Constitution, and of
all legitimate institutions.

The advices from Hesse Darmstadt are of the
9th inst. They furnish us with the following
Ordinance :
"Louis 11., by the Grace of God, Grand Duke of Hesse
and the Hesse-Rhenish provinces.
" Having resolved to call our faithful Estates together,
on the Ist of December, of the present year, we invite all
the Deputies to assemble on that day, in our residence, at
Darmstadt, to discuss the principles of the Constitution,
and in virtue of the rights which are given them, the pro-
positions which we shall judge fit to submit to them."

The Morning Chronicle contains the follow.

ing :

76 We mentioned, about a week since, that Prince TAL-
LEYRAND had been exerting his influence with Lord
PALMERSTON, in order that England and France might
interpose their authority to terminate the dispute be-
tween Donna MARIA and Don MIGUEL, by recognizing
at once the claims of the QUEEN. We have reaso❑
to believe that the PRINCE'S exertions have been so
far crowned with success, that Ministers are making
arrangements for the accomplishment of an object no less
desirable on the score of policy than on that of humanity
and the cause of good government. Austria and England,
during Mr. Canning's Administration, were the Powers
who, at the request of Don Pedro, recognized Don Miguel
as the Regent of Portugal, according to the Constitutional
Charter which had been previously accepted and sworn
to in Portugal, and by which the succession of Donna
Maria to the Throne was secured, during the mino-
rity of the young Queen, between whom and Don
Miguel a marriage was to have been consummated. The
intrigues of the Tories of England instigated Miguel
to break faith with England and Austria the moment he
reached Lisbon. Under the pretence that the nation
were discontented with the Charter, with the succession of
Donna Maria, he assumed the Kingly power. The cir-
cumstances which then occurred, and the whole of his
conduct since, afford but' too strong a justification of the
course which, we are glad to find, is about to be taken.
The connection between England and Portugal places the
former out of the predicament to which the rule of non-
interference strictly applies."
We made a similar statement ill The Sun
some time ago—and we now repeat our opi-
nion, that the immediate recognition of Queen
Donna MARIA, would be one of the' most
popular acts which Government could do. In
fact, the public expect, and have a right to ex-
pect this concession to justice and the in-
terests of:the country, at the hands of Ministers,
who have been shilly-shallying too long on
this important question. If they hesitate on the
point of non-intervention, they have gone too
far already ; and having done wrong in the cause
of the rightful heir to the throne, they ought to
repair it without further loss of time before their
interference be too late. Their present position
is doubly critical, for if PEDRO fail or succeed,
the interference of England will be thrown away.
A pleasant alternative truly I Bis dot qut
cito clot.

The immediate recognition of DONNA MA-
RIA would secure the triumph of liberty in
Portugal, and the consequent establishment of
liberal institutions throughout the Peninsula.
That one act would have the moral force of a
hundred thousand men in favour of the Queen
Of SPAIN.

By the accounts from Madrid we learn that
General O'DONNELL,and General CHAPERON,
and several monks, had been arrested. General
CHAPERON was conducted to the fortress of
Saint Anton, at Carague, and the monks of
St. Catherine to Cadiz. General O'DoNNELL
remained in secret confinement at Madrid. We
learn, by these advices, that a department, called
Foment° general del Reino, equivalent to Mi-
nister of the Interior, had been created, and that
ENEIMA Y PIEDRA, Minister of Finance, had
been named ad interim to the new post, with
the obligation of constituting, with as little de-
lay as possible, the Ministry. Don FRANCISCO
XAVIER DE CUSTANOS is named Captain-
General of New Castile, in place of the Marquis
GAMBRANO, who retires with a pension of
30,000 francs. MANUEL FREISE had been
named Commandant of the Guard Royal, in
place of the Marquis. In consequence of
the advanced age of General CusTANos, Lieut.-
General CONTERA is named second in com-
mand in New Castile, in order that he might
assist General CUSTANOS. Some question was
agitating in the Cabinet respecting an ordi-
nance, inflicting very severe penalty on all re-
taining the denomination of Negros, Commu-
neros, Free-masons, Anelleros, &c. It was re-
ported that M. MARTINEZ DE LA ROSA was
charged with reducing into a project the as-
sembling of the Cortes, which was expected to
be; upon the principle of the French Chambers.
Ihe Ambassadors of Austria, Russia, and
Naples were very little at Court, and great cold-
ness existed between them and the Ambassadors
of France and England. Since the change in
the policy of the Spanish Government there has
been great coldness between these Plenipotentiaries
and those of France and England, and not a
single conference has
.taken place among the
corps diplo»zatique. The Ambassadors from
France and England repaired almost every day
to the Palace and the houses of the Palaces.

We find by the accounts from Copenhagen
that the King of DENMARK was using great
exertions to improve the condition of his subjects
and advance the interest of his nation. The
Minister or State, Count DE RANTZA DE
BRISTENBURG, had arrived there, it was sup-
posed to open the deliberations of the Council
of State on the subject of the Provincial States.
The promulgation of the new laws was to take
place on the 28th of January next, the anni-
versary of the birth of the KING. The sitting
of the Provincial States would be held at Copen-
hagen for the Isles, and at \Viborg for Jutland.
The opening was fixed for the approaching
autumn. Steam-boats were about to be gene-
rally introduced ; one was to ply between Kiel
and Altona, and a similar one was to be built
for the purpose of perfecting the railroad about
to be constructed between Lubeck and Ham-
burg. Steam boats were to ply incessantly on
the route of Kalundborg, Zealand, and Harlem,
in Jutland. A series of diligences were to be
established between Kamedborg and Copen-
hagen. These establishments would open an un-
interrupted communication with Jutland.
An order relative to the Island was about to
be published, containing essential ameliorations
principally for the administration of justice and
improving criminal process. A project was

about to .be started at Copenhagen to erect an
Exchange upon the model of that of Hamburg.
The Hamburg and Erichsen merchants were at
the head of it. The harvest had terminated in
Jutland and had proved generally abundant.

We have only time and space to call the at-
tention of our readers to the important and in-
teresting correspondence, in our front page, of
the different candidates for Westminster.
