SPAIN.

According to authentic information from Spain,
the following are the questions put to the Prince of
Asturias, by the Commission appointed for his exa.
urination, upon the discovery of the reported conspi.
racy at Madrid ; together with the answers of his
Royal Highness. Those questions and answers pre.
ceded his Royal Highness's liberation : and the docu.
extracted them, Contained
ment from which we have
also the articles which are afterwards alluded to.—
From the whole, we derive ample confirmation of the
opjuice:re expressed upon the subject of this conspi.

this Country :

On Saturday last, the 6th re3imett; of the
German Legion arrived at Plymouth in the Aid
Ceres transports. On Monday morning they were
disembarked, and marched into Plymouth Barraoks.
Arrangements were making in the Canterbury
District for the reception of the troops lately arrived
at Portsmouth, from the Mediterranean, with Gene-
ral Sir JOHN Moors, which had been ordered to sail
from Spithead with the first fair wind, for the Downs,
where they were to be disembarked; but this arrange-
ment has been wholly superseded, and the troops
have begun to disembark at that place.
As a part of the above arrangement, the West
Norfolk Militia are to march from Canterbury to
Faversham, to make room for the first battalion of
the 52d and the .58th regiments.
Yesterday morning the 62d regiment tnarched

by the General Officer commanding the Cork Dis-
trict, to order the disembarkation of the Infantry
Regiments and Artillery which had arrived in the

Yesterday se'nnight, the disembarkation of- the
troops, intended to remain for the present in Ireland,

40•11t'proceeded to Bandon, and replaced the 2d bat-
talion, at the 38th, which marched to Mallow.—The
36th and.4sth are to do duty in Cork garrison, from
which the Louth and Donegan regiments of Mi-
litia marclied same morning, the former to Tuarn ,
and the latter to Charleville. We have not heard the
destination of the artillery.
The 36th regiment did not arrive there till eight at
night, having been obliged, in consequence of the
difficult:- of crossing the ferry from Cove, where they
disembarked, to Passage, to march round by Belvelly.
The returns of the sick in the fleet froth Monte
Video amounted to 317. The whole force effective
and non-effective which arrived in the transports, was

his stead. The grateful feelings of the balloted bro-
ther were in the highest degree excited, and a copious

witnessed the scene evinced an'abnost equal degree of
sensibility
