Lord Wellington, Duke of Ciudad Rodrigo, yes-
terday afternoon entered this capital. He was re-
ceived with all the honours due to his rank, and to

committed. The mere suspicion of having been fa-
Wourable to the Cortes, or of having served in the esta-
iment of Joseph, was sufficient to endanger the
