According to accounts from Madrid of the 27th ult.,
the despotic conduct of NARVAEZ towards the editors of
the Clamor Public°, as well as other proceedings of an
equally arbitrary character, had caused great public
excitement, and & pressed the funds nearly one per
cent. All the papers, with the exception of the
Heraldo, which is under the influence of the Govern-
ment, condemned in the strongest terms the arrest and
deportation, without trial, of Colman' and CALvo; and
the Castellano and Globo cautioned the Ministry against
pursuing a course which might lead to most deplorable
results. By a new law, it appears all journals are to be
submitted to the censorship of the Political Chief three
hours before publication, and ft,r a breach of
this law, which we certainly never heard of,
the editor of the Espectador had been sub-
jected to a fine of 3,000 reels (301.) It was said
that news had been received of other arbitrary pro-
ceedings in the provinces, and that three respectable
merchants, named GUARDIOLA, VERGES, and BALDRICK,
had been arrested at Barcelona. According to the Eco
del Comercio fourteen persons altogether had been ar•
rested at that place, and thirty more were destined for
the same fate. NARVAEZ, having got rid of the Cortes,
seems determined to rule the country entirely by mili-
tary law, and provoke another reaction in that unfor-
tunate country.

The Bourse was greatly agitated by the intelligence,
and the Funds declined considerably on the 27th, the
Three per Cents. closing at 33 for cash, and 33i at 60
days; the Five per Cents. at 23i for cash, and at 60
days; and the Coupons at 27i for cash.

The Paris papers are occupied with the new treaty
for the suppression of the slave-trade, the arrest of the
Madrid editors, and the abdication of Don CARLOS. All
of them condemn the conduct of the Spanish Cabinet
towards the press. The Journal des Debuts descries it
as an act of arbitrary power, and as totally incompre-
hensible, when it is recollected that it took place only
the day after the promulgation or a constitution, embo-
dying clauses which especially provide against such an
abuse of authority; ar,d the other Government journal,
the Globe, expresses utter astonishment at the strange
proceeding. The other papers, almost without exception,
concur in regarding the arrest, wider the circumstances
stated, as despotic and illegal in the highest degree. The
Opposition journals seem not at all satisfied with tilt
new treaty. M. TurEns' journal infers that it has been
purchased at a high price, namely, by France en-
gaging to take part with England against America
in the affair of Texas ; and the Nat:und says, " The
treaty may be sufficiently convenient for the British Ca-
binet, but it appears to be rather insolent towards our
Chambers. Consider the situation in which it will be
pfiltancned. No doubtttwanty.seve a demandnshipaefwwairl,l

purposecan there be a debate on the subject ? We admit
the right with which the RING is invested by the charter to
sign treaties, but the right of refusing the supplies con-
