SPAIN.

A letter from Cadiz to an eminent, mercantile
house in the city, states the particulars of an insurrec-
tion which has taken place in that city in consequence
of the late Revolution-in the. Spanibh Government.
From this letter it appears, that a number of people
had attacked those houses in Cadiz, which were sup-
posed to contain likenesses of the PRINCE of the
PEAtez, and the proprietors of which were considered
as partial to that personage. In one house a statue
of this Prince was found, which the proprietor refused
to surrender, and therefore it was destroyed, which,
it is said, would have been the fate of the proprietor,
had he not contrived to escape by very extraordinary
dexterity. The houses of Messrs. STRANGE and
SHIELDS were also attacked by the populace, but no
evidence of respect or regard for the PRINCE of the
PEACE being found in those houses, no injury 14 as
done. From all that we have heard we are induced
to think that the PRINCE of the PEACE was very gene-
rally odious in Spain—to the Nobility, by his arro-
gance ; to the Monied inter ~ by his avarice ; to
the religious, by his profligacy ; and to the popula-
tion, by the suspicion of his devotion to France. Of
course his fall was likely to De gratefully hailed by
all classes. He appears to be universally hated, and
no degree of French influence seems employed to
break his fall.

By the last accounts from Finland, the Russians
were retreating ; the cause of this is not known, hut
is reported to be for want of provisions.

We stated yesterday (in our Plymouth letter) that ,
ciders had been received to equip, with all possible
dispatch, and to victual for six months, the Squadron
under the command of Admiral Sir J. T. pucKwavan.
There is at this time, an unusual bustle in fitting out
the ships of war at that station, but the particular
case has not transpired. The piimax, which we
stated to have sailed, was recalled by signal before she
got past the Penlet point. Of the Admiralty vessels
which sailed with dispatches, one proceeded to Ushant
and Rochefort, another to Cadiz and the Streights,
sad a third to the West Indies. This activity is pro-
bably connected with accounts received respecting
some projected naval movements of the enemy.

held lastnight in Portman-square, was fully attended
