The Madrid Gazettes,frotu the 15th to the 19th

details respecting the good disposition which prevails
throughout Andalusia. Whenever the King ap-
pears, lie is received with the most unbounded de-
unOutrations, of joy.. His condescension and affabi-
lity win all hearts. The. Spaniards, now compar-
ing the state of anarchy and alarm in. which they
existed, with the order, tranquility, and return of
confidence, for which they are indebted to their
'Sovereign,- 'are 'thereby the -bet ter enabled ,to esti-
mate the advantages which. they may, expert from
his paternal government.
PARIS, MARCH 12.--We understand that the

Maria Louisa, was to be celebrated yesterday.(Sun—
day) at Vienna, that the Empress is to leave that

VIENNA, FEB. 24.—The portrait -which the Ern-,
peror Napoleon has sent to the, Arch DucheSs is an
exquisite piniature, surrounded with The richest
chatnomis., - The greatest wasters of this capital are'
at present employed on the portrait of the Princess.
,

'the marriage. Allegorical transparencies, emblems,
and inscriptions, are preparing every where. The
expences. of the illuminations of the Imperial Pa-
lace alone will.amount to 40,000 florins. , .

The Joy .which prevails is the more animated, as
.after so sanguinary a war, and such a period of de-
solation, it .was not expeeted that the first result of
peace should be so happy an event. The whole ne'l',!
:gociation, a; we have already said, was enveloped
in 'the most Complete mystery; and; before the re 4
turn of the Austrian courier, there scarce existed
a..vague.rumout of this.marriage. In .fine, the
. pidity with which we have passed frOm:th,e stare of
war to that of peace and 'happiness, is remarkable.
The Court and State carriages, which hail been stint
tQ . the extremity of Hungary during the war, are'
not yet returned, and are driven day and night with
'post-horses, in order to -arrive:inlime. It is said
that, the French Emperor will meet the. Empress at
Compiegne or Chalons-sur-Marne.

'and particularly gold, which is a proof of confidence'
in the stability of the. present state of things.

nister wished to transmit the intelligence to his`
Court, and every merchant to his correspondents.

BERLIN, FEB. 22.—A1l the intelligence we re-
ceive from Paris is of the most satisfactory nature
our new Minister, General Krusmark, has expe-
rienced the most distinguished reception on the part
of the Emperor Napoleon. < .It is wry probable that
the severe measures which our Government has
lately adopted with regard to the admission of neu-
tral ships in our ports, are owing to some conversa-
tion which our' Ambassador lad in , Paris on that
subjeal. As to the English %hips which in the
course of last year fonnd, ;neaps to steal into our
ports under American colours, will in all probability
never again make their appearance.
LEYDEN, MARCH t4.----Accounts from the
southern parts of France contain the following.intel-
ligence relative to the state of affairs in Spain. The
operations against Portugal are likely- to be soon
commenced. The Duke of Abrantes, who in ail
probability is to direcl them, has set out from
Burgos. Troops. arrive from all parts to join his
' army. Marshal Ney, who with part of his, army
had advanced into the kingdom of Leon, and esta-
blished his head-quarters at Astorga, has since de.
(ached some of his troops to the southward, in or-
der`to form a junetion with General Herdeler, who,
ed interim, commands the second corps. This Ge
peral occupies the Banks of the Tagus, in order Fa
overawe the army of the Duke del Parque, which
is again commanded .by the Marquis de la Roinana,
who has taken up a. position in the vicinity of Bada- •
joz, but is not likely long to maintain that position,
as the Marshal Duke of Treviso_ is already on his
march to ad against him, in concert with the se-
cond corps.

DOWNSHIRE, SALISBURY, and BATH,. were present.
The Supper was very elegant. The floor of the
Ball-room was beautifully chalked in wreaths and
flowers. •

FlRE.—About one o'clock this morning the pa-
rish of St. Clement Danes, and all the neighbour-
hood, was alarmed by a fire which suddenly broke
forth,'and' burnt:with great fury. 'lt appeared at
the house of Mr. Cooke ley, the Distributor of Irish
Stamps, in New BoSwell•ceuft, Carey-street. The
file menaced a wide destruction, till the Lincoln's
Inn engine arrived, which soon arrested its progress.
It'haci at that period just reached the house of Mr.
Crowther, the surgeon, in Old Boswell-;court.—A
cow-house, belonging to Mr. Hartshorn, was caught
by the flames, but, all the cows except One, who
was too much frightened to be removed, were driven
away in due time, The number of persons who;
in a twit' naked state, were hurried by their fears
into the street, produced a most distresssing specta
cle. The fire was not wholly subdued at a late
hour this day ; and though it has been very destruc-
tive to property, we have the pleasure of finding
that tto lives were lost-.
