This interesting day has passed over very well, and the
Queen Governess and the members of the two Estamentos,

at an
Chamber

e°l'le and ladies of the highest rank, all anxious to obtain

'in order to witness the arrival of the Queen. Every

C''' as the galleries are small, many were obliged to return

I;4' carriage, and attended, as on similar occasions, by the
°Yal servants and guards, &c.

pa the Proceres and Procuradores to be seated.
la r,
who as Prime Minister stood immediately
tla right hand, then presented the Royal speech, which
,Queer read with fluency and ease as follows :
thkt,4lustrious Proceres and Gentlemen Procuradores of
ofefis'‘ingdom,—The assembling will be always dear to me
14: Cortes, who, in accord with the Government of my
liiiiLst daughter, have to deliberate on questions of the
1)4'7 interest to the good of the nation and of the state,
tkaavever more than now, when a new era begins of recon-
tt, Itui and of patriotism. My heart is powerfully affected
Ne:rternplating the loyalty and good sense of the Spanish
wh7t, and conceives a well-founded hope of seeing ter-
tl7ted within a short time, by the sacrifices of this great
iitl°u, the calamities of the civil war. I have the greatest
all,Blraetion in expressing before you sentiments which are
11;efal to me as mother of Isabel 11., and Queen Gover-
'4.°i! Spain.
I)4:have placed my confidence in the Ministers who are
of -urea with that of the nation. If the representatives
the
the Spanishthe Monarchy, who at this moment surround
ift,'"°noof my beloved daughter, favour them equally
t'''-t`.' theirs, I hope that without new loans or an augmen-
ia.lolof the taxes, resources will be found, not only to
41
11 'nate the war of the factious and to prove sufficient for
le eth .
the 1 er obligations of the State, but also to ameliorate
144 '('t of its creditors, national as well as foreign, and to
4 Public credit on a solid basis.
411ilrhe Sovereigns who signed the treaty of the quadruple
an'ee continue to give us repeated proofs of their adhe-
tl;ce to the principles therein laid down, affording aid, as
toif4,3 my Government considers proper, to the sacred cause
ttika we defend. To this treaty my august daughter is
~othted for the copious assistance, in arms and ammuni-
:lit; afforded for the support of her throne by my august
4,, the King of Great Britain, and the authorization
41ted by that Government to English subjects to take up
th iu her defence. Faithful to the same confederation,
the, ng of the French, my august uncle, has authorited
,:,,.,eruoval from the shores of Africa to Catalonia, of the
j4sielgu Legion, which has already begun to give to our
re s cause such essential services. We have to expect equal
altß 4.
Kir, - from the • concurrence of the 10,000 Portuguese,
ti,C\ according to a convention made with her most Faith-
of „taiesty, my much-beloved cousin, and as a consequence
t,,r;.est treaty, have already commenced entering into our
ki,lt°rY• Their Majesties the Emperor of Brazil, the
11,,,1's °I Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, and Greece, and the
to lie of the United States of North America, preserve
4(18 us that powerful union and friendship which they
l'Ol,, always professed to us. Our relations with the other
(lo 'e4 are conformable to the line of policy which their
Pe vel'aments thus far follow, and to the dignity and inde-
'4'ence of our nation.
tifi's'egotiations have been entered upon with the States
itite,,Panish America, and I have. believed it suited to the
to t;csts of the nation and of the Throne, and well adapted
thr: confidence inspired in me by the Certes, to consult
1;1: °u a business of so much and such transcendent im-
of ,tiee, without, however, infringing on the prerogative
le Crown
.
ki; Pio fidelity of the valiant army of my august daughter,

tile 'North, and by its constant adherence to the cause of

Am which t have conferred on it have been just
la,:lerited, although they, by the straitened circumstances,
Ikti-fill°t come up to my wishes. There is only one which

k,ts ; but the equality with which the enliStment has been

elm and of disinterestedness which I daily receive from all

i Ivli*:int,ltive Government—that the Liberty of the Press,

l

k .41ne. time rendering compatible-the 'inviolability. of the
4.
~
v.4reh and the rights of the nation.
c't al'i°us useful decrees have been circulated from the
yop . of the Secretary of Finance, and in particular that

i •au 4_ ,
ItR,. 11, and Wiliell is specially grateful to my feel-
ra; Knee its object is to alleviate misfortunes and to
4.'l';'),rl to socitv man;.- useful persons, to the profit oh
''ll!ture aryl of 'the' arts, and not less to the advan-

tage of public mocal,s. But it has not yet been possible
to form a general plan for this most extensive budget.
I hope that you will authorize my Government to make
in it the proper modifications, and that you will place

it in a situation of presenting to the future Cortes a com-
plete system of financial administration. When the amount
of the receipts produced by these modifications, and the
sum of the expenses, ordinary as well as extraordinary,
shall be known, the estimates Al be presented with all due
exactness, which, considering the actual circumstances of
the nation, it is impossible at this moment to verify: I be-
lieve my Government worthy of such confidenceto the

Cortes it belongs to suit it to the appropriate occasions.
" Ia the judicial order many abuies have disappeared,
and there has been established a regular and uniform system

in all the proceedings of the tribunals. The efforts of zeal
and ability arc continually directed towards the labours of
preparing and arranging the new codes, and in the regula-
tion of the clergy, of whom the commission,' composed, of
prelates and of other individuals, replete with virtues and
with information, will not cease its labours until the objects
are completed. A project of law Will be laid before you for
establishing in a decent manner the lot of the regulars.
" We are bound to give thanks to Divine Providence for
the good state of the public health, and for the harvest pro-
duce of this year, which, if not superabundant, is at least
sufficient. The Cortes will be able to obtain full informa-
tion of what has been done, and what is under consideration

in order to be done, in matters of administration and in fa-

your of the inhabitants of every district. To those matters

belong the organization of the Ayuntamientos (corporation
magistrates) and of the provincial deputations—a new ar-
rangement of civil government—the municipal and, popular
character which is to be given to the police—the removal
of the obstacles and difficulties which have hitherto been

opposed to the free circulation of individuals and of arti-
cles from one part of the monarchy to another ; and, in
fine, the improvements made and proposed to made in the
system o► instruction, for the perfection of which no sum will
seem to me excessive. _ _

" The corporate (proprios), the half-pay. saving funds
(wades), and the granary property (positos), have particu-
larly attracted my attention. A law will be presented to you
for the alienation of the first ; which law will be combined in
such a manner, that without diminishing the value of the
lands and without doing any injury to the inhabitants of the
towns, the products of the sales may perhaps defray all-the ex-
penses of the system of roads and canals, which is within a few
years to be formed, and which, by favouring transport of goods
and commerce, will give value to the products, and conse-
quently to the lands themselves, the price of which will have
augmented with the augmentation of the cultivated grounds.
Private wealth, and that of the State, will thus increase in
rapid progression, and the national properties allotted to
the extinction of the national debt can be sold at a proper
valuation ; and the more especially of the granary stores
(positos), which, preserving always their ancient and bene-
ficial.destination, shall at the same time serve as a basis for
provincial banks,' which will be found to favour speculations
of industry, and among them that which is most important
in its public and private results—the purchase of national
properties. The Government, convinced that it is never a
good adminstrator of this species of property, proposes, with
the consent of the Cortes, to offer immediately for sale all
such property now in its power, and, also all that may for
the same reasons belong to it hereafter. •
To the system of communication, which is the great
want of Spain in the order of material subjects, is referred
the convention which I have concluded with her Most
Faithful Majesty on the navigation of the Douro, and which
is to be extended. to that of the Tagus, Minho, and
Guadiana.

" Such are, illustrious Proceres, and gentlerrien Procura-
Alores of the kingdom, the important. questions which are to
be submitted to your deliberation. From your distinguished
loyalty, patriotism, and wisdom, I expect the happiest re-
sults. The Representative Government is that which is
best adapted to the present civilization- ; my intention is,
that this nation, so worthy of being free and happy, shall'
enjoy the liberties emanating from that system of Govern-
ment, in union with public order, which is a condition ne-
cessary for every grade of human society. Great sacrifices
have been made, and continues to be made, by this magna-.
nitrous people, for.t.he support of the throne of my august
daughter. My name is associated, perhaps, by a particular
arrangement of Heaven, with those generous efforts, and I
will, therefore, make no excuses for, and neither will. I be-
sitateto offer, any sacrifices, in order that the Spaniards
may receive their fit recompense in the consolidation of their
liberty and of their happiness."
Having concluded the reading, M. Mendizabal bowed to
the Queen, and asked her permission to address the Cortes. •
Having received her assent, he then spoke aloud as follows
" Her Majesty commands me to declare that the General
Cortes of the Kingdom are now lawfully opened:'
• These words, which he repeated slowly and with a marked
pause on the word " lawfully," made an evident impression
on the assembly.
.The Queen then rose, and the deputation accompanied
her to the entrance. It was a striking sight to seethe
Conde.de las Navas, who six weeks' ago was at the Lead of
an army in actual dispute with the Government of the
Queen, in the dress of a National Guard soldier, as well as
Senor Isturiz, the most decided Liberal, and who has been
called the counsellor of Las Navas, and the ad interim
President of the Estamento, accompanied by the other
Procuradores, and by the deputation of the Proceres, at-
tending the Queen on her entrance and her departure.
At 3 o'clock the procession returned in the same order
to the Palace amidst the roar of cannon and the ringing of

bells.
The Queen looked pale and- wan, though otherwise in
good health, and appeared in better spirits than at the
close of the Cortes, last May. She saluted the crowds as
the men took off their hats, and the women waved their
handkereh'efs on her passage.
The election of the President of the Procuradores is to
take place to-morrow ; five persons will be chosen, of whom
the Queen Regent will nominate one, who will continue
during the session.
There is to-night a partial illumination.
To-morrow a President. will be chosen, and on Thursday,
I understand, it is to be fully dthated..
Preparations are making for an illumination to-night.
The queen Regent worked with her Ministers till mid-
night, and ordered her carriage to take her to town at six-
this morning. She looked well, was elegantly dressed,
bowed graciously to all around, and seemed much pleased
with her reception.
- The Gazette -of this day contains an official report from
Baron de Meer, Viceroy ad interim of Navarre, dated the
9th instant, stating that Colonel Iriarte bad, according to
his orders, marched t.i►e night before to Laratuana, and sur-
prised the party of Oebotegui, killing 18, and making 33
prisoners, being the whole of that detachment.

KIRKCUBBIN DINNER TO WILOLJAM SHARMAN
CRAWFORD, ESQ., M.P.—This entertainment to Mr.
Crawford, chiefly from, the Landholders of Ards, took place
on Tuesday last. Francis Savage, Esq P., of Glastry,
presided. There were about 270 persons present;' the
greater part of whom are highly respectable and indepen-
dent. farmers. The cloth having been removed, the usual
loyal toasts were given, after which the Chairman, in a
highly, complimentary address, proposed the health of Mr.
Crawford, which was received by the company with enthu-
siastic cheers. MT. -Crawford then delivered a long. and
eloquent speech in reply, in the course of which he referred
to the circumstances under which he formerly contested
the-county of Down, and the support which he received
that occasion from the men of Ards.-. Mr. CraWford then
gave a brief history of the tithe question since the Year
1182:3, and reviewed at some length the variors measures
which have been proposed for the extinction of tithe. - Mr.
Crawford concluded with a detailed exposition of the prin-
ciples of his bill respecting landlord and tenant in Ireland;
and resumed his seat amidst continued cheering. In the
course of the evening a number of other toasts were given,
and speeches were delivered by several gentlemen.
COMMUNICATION WITH AMERICA BY WATER-
FORD.—Mr. Wyse has been instructed by the Committee
appointed at the late meeting of the city, on the commu-
nication with America, via Valentia, to tender the co-ope-
ration of the Waterford Committee to the Great Western
Railway Company, and 'to ..solicit their influence to have
the communication made -from Valentia or Bantry, .via
Waterford to London. This would be obviously the
shortest way, as from Valentia to Waterferd could be
made by railroad in six hours—from thence to Bristol or
rather King-road in 18 hours, and thence to London six
hours by the Great Western Railroad, making a total of
:30 hours from Valentia to London by Waterford.—lrater-
