times gentle, sometimes energetic, of a detachnsen!•
of cavalry, of the Regiment del Nitwit% which was
posted near the place. These Mistime afterwards
repeated, with °then of the same kind, is consequence
of which the National Militia, which occupied the
entsances to the square of the Constitution, inter-
fered, and arrested a comstryntan who distinguished
himself in one of the groupes.. Many of those who
composed it proceeded to the Attitude de la Ville to
demand his liberty, which they afterwards repeated
in the square of the Constitution. We do not know
whether they attained their object.
.This evening there have been manifested some
symptoms more or less lending to disorder, the ef-
fects of which have beep repressed by the noble atti-
tude of the local and paimanent national militia.—
The militia perceivinif that, after the operation of the
day was concluded, considerable groups assembled
in the square, and that many of o'
the persons who
composed them were armedwith sticks, took hose is
could, and at night continued its efforts to:p. revent
the interruption of the public tranquillityi. the pre-
servation of which is confided to its zeal.
It is now nine o'clock at night; all symptoms of dis-
order have vanished, and the city is quite tranquil.

PAMPLONA. M A RCII ts.
For some days past we hive heard of certain bands
of armed peasants, which have appeared in the North
part of this province. These bands, some of which
consist of 100 men, seem to be rather smugglers than
rebels, though there are some who pretend that they
are entirely composed of enemies to the Constitutional
System. It is known, however, that many of these
parties are engaged in smuggling spices and colo-
nial produce, by which they make large profits.
Notwithstanding these circumstances, complete
tranquillity prevails in this capital, and the Authori-
ties do their utmost to preserve it, and prevent all
fresh causes of complaint.

MADRID, MARCH 20.
The Mail was robbed on the 18th near Mendes.—
The soldiers who escorted it seeing the robbers, en.
deavoured to attack them, on which the villains fired
and killed one of the horses of the soldiers, and the
other ran away. The banditti robbed and ill-treated
the passengers.
We have so frequently spoken of these abuses, that
we are weary of repeating the same thing. Yet we
cannot but lament the scandalous neglect in the ad-
ministration of justice. The capital is full of gypsies,
vagabonds, and presidios, who were already con-
demned, and have escaped the punishment due to
them. 'We shall shortly give a representation made
by the Municipality of Madrid to the Government
on this important subject.
It is, in truth, disgraceful that the unfortunate tra-
veller should be robbed within three leagues of the
capital of Spain, and still more so that these excesses
should be repeated daily. The enemies of our liberty
take advantage of all these events to decry the Con-
stitutional System. If the judicial power does not
exercise speedy and complete justice, it will be respon-
sible for all the disorders which its indifference must
produce..

This morning early, the Authorities had taken all
proper precautions to prtserve order in the ceremony
of drawing lists (for the conscription), which had
been announced to begin, and in fact did begin, this
Shortly after it commenced, some cries were
Fuera lieera r which, for a considerable
were overpowered by the admonitions, some.

BURGOS, MARCH 17.
It seems incredible what is passing in the environs
of this city, by the existence of the wretches Caraza,
Hipolito, Isaac, Nicasio, and a few others as bad as 11
them, if that is possible, and by the inefficacy of the
measures adopted to pursue and exterminate them.
The insecurity in which we are to go out of the
gates, since the unhappy Manso was seized by these
wretches, of whom nothing has since been heard, is
inci eased by a horrible event which has just happened.
Here follows a long account of two persons having
been carried off by Hipolito; as they did not return
for many days, their wives uent to search after them,
but in vain. They have since been found in the
mountains murdered, and it is probable Manscihad
the same fate.

The French Papers of Monday have been received,
and furnish us with the following extracts :

PARIS, APRIL 1.

It is believed,* says the Ruche (Aquitaine, that Berthon is in
some measure concerned in the plot of La Rochelle. What is'
certain is, that he has :hewn himself at a fair, with seven others
well armed, and endeavouring to get recruits.
Telegraphic dispatches from Toulon, of the 26th and 28th of
March; anemonee the sailing from that port of the Medea frigate
and the schooner La Torche. The Medea, commanded by Cap-
tain Rigny, is going to the Levant to rallyshis Majesty's squa-
dron, after having cruised to Various coasts of the Mediterra-
nean. The Torche, commanded by M. Dupelit, is gone to Al-
giers and Bona to protect the coral fishery in those parts, where
treaties give the French vessels the right of pursuing that fishing.
The Eche de I' Orient complains that, in contravention of the
Concordat of 1801, attempts have been made in the diocese of
Rennes to restore the suppressed Estes, and instances those of the
Virgin Mary, which were before united with the Sunday, bUt
during this year celebrated in the diocese on the day when they
fall. The Clergy publicly announce them—the Parish Priests
especially, recommend the observance of them to their Socks,
who are very docile; labour is interrupted, and the silence of
the Civil Authorities induces new infringements of the law. The
name of the Bishop is put forward to authorise these innovations,
and it seems not to be known that he alone has no right to change
what his Supreme Head has thought fit to establish, which the
rest of the French Clergy observe, probably, without resistance,
and to which he is bound by a law of his country to submit.—
The same Journal mentions the still more blameable conduct of
an Ecclesiastic at the head of a College, who suspends the stu-
dies of a youth on the holidays thus illegally restored.
FRANKFORT, MARCH 26.

Prince Suss° is still undtr surveillance at Lemberg, the Aus-
trian Government not having allowed him to prosecute his jour.
trey. He has applied to the Court of St. Petersburgh for leave
to return to Russia.

Private letters state the late natal action between the Greeks
and the Turk; at the entrance of the Gulf of'Lepanto, was very
Woody, and that the loss on both sides was immense. The loss
of the Turks is.estimated at 25 ships of war; but the Greeks are
said likewise to have loot 16 ships of war.
The Vienna Cour/ Gametic has published a numerous promo-
tion ht the Austrian army. It is observed that such promotions
are generally made on the eve of a war. It is repoittd that an irn-

Extract of a letter from Valparalso,dated Nov. •: " The Sacra-
mento has arrived, and it appears that Lord COCHILANE had gone
for Callan, some say to Acapulco ; but I think his principal object
is to look after the ship Emperor Alexander, in which, I believe,
he is interested. The army at Guyaquil has suffered consider-
ably, and General Soots, after having muted the Spaniards, has
been completely defeated ; and it is reported the Spaniards are
now masters of Guyaquil." •
Extract of a letter from Cape Ihytien, dated Feb. 14 :—" The
exportation of specie is again prohibited, and any mosey im-
ported ought to be reported, to entitle ft to be re-exported. The
tonnage duty on all vessels is one dollar per ton, since the first
day of the year. The Americans pay a duty of 12 per cent. on
an dry goods; and the British flag only seven per cent. This
market continues to remain overstocked with all kinds of Ame-
rican provisions."

The accounts front Ireland represent the County of Cork as
becoming more tranquil, although the list of outrages is still con-
siderable. Several houses have been plundered of arms, and others
burnt to the ground, both in the Counqes of Cork and Limerick.

The noted offender 'hoick Dillane, alias John Reek, who
with his accomplices have hitherto kept the neighbourhood of
Newcastle and the adjacent mountains in a state of terror, was

Friday, a Meeting of the Inhabitants of the County
took place at Lincoln, to petition the House cf Com-
mons oa the subject of Agricultural Di,,tres,. Sir J.
11. THOROLD, the Sheriff, opener the bosrue,..
Sir ROBERT HERON then addres,e the .‘l,2,.tinz in
a very long speech, in the course whi,h he de-
clared the Agricultural Committee to be a humbug,
and the averment that distress was araristh,o, e to
the transition from war to peace. to be the veriest
nonsense ever addressed to rational men. Nl,.ch cf
the distress he attributed to the arcked paper cur-
rency now exploded, and which he hoped no b,ate
Physician would, under any emergeocy, again resort
to. He could not understand upon what vain,iple
the Fundholder could nox claim t r be paid a. the
rate of six or seven per cent. for that which Ile rad
contracted to advance for five per cent. T.e
nourable Baronet, in conclusion, said, he Amu a pr.L.
duce for the adoption of the Meeting a Peti.ion, suet
AS those only vrho were' far gone indeed in T,e4,•tvy
politics, could oppose. He then read the Peotion,
which was as follows:

" Your Petitioners beg leave to represent to your Honourable
House that this County is suffering, in common with th:.rest of
the nation, under a distress severe, increasing, and menacing
with ruin the whole of the agricultural population. •
" They refrain from troubling your l lunourable House with
their opinion on the causes of thv evils which now oppress them,
but they hesitate Dot to avow that no adequate relief can r e oar
forded, but by the reduction of the intolerable weig it ~f tazazion.
" They, therefore, humbly pray that your Honourable House
will tate into your consideration the repeal of those taxes. which
press the most severely on the necessaries of life • and that you
will provide for the consequent deficiency in the life;
Revenue
by the diminution of our enormous establishmons, and the alio:
Mien of all unnecessary Places," &c. &c. &c.
The motion* that the Petition be adopted was they
seconded by CHARLES ALLIs, Esq.
EDWARD FRENCH BROOMHEAD, Esq. dissented from
the opinion expressed by the two former Gentlex.en
AS to the cause of distress, and said it was the sao,e
as was experienced* after the American war, and after
every other .% ar.
Several other Gent!emen then addressed fte Meet-
ing, and the County Members were requested to Fr,-
sent their Petition to the House of Commons, and
give it their support.
Previous to the dissolution of this Meeting, ano-
ther County Meeting was appointed for
the 19th instant, to take into consideration the .ices--
city of presenting a Petition cn the subject of a Re-
form in the Commons House of Parliament.

Thursday last, a melancholy accident happened on board the
Melton, lying in the Tyne, at the North Shore. One of •`r
roy d-masts was that afternoon received on board, and as the
crew were In the act of hoisting it up for the purpose of bsi..g
it, the most elevated end slipped from the ropes, and falling 0-1
the head of a young man, named Joust DODDS, killed him on t'
spot. The deceased was 17 years of age, and the son of Mr. Jous
Donos, of the New Road, near Newcastle.

A hopeless swain, about six miles from Kendal, nut weir;
with a suitable return to his passion, was advised by his friem's
to eat as many' eggs as he possibly could, in order to do away the
killing fimte. To this receipt he resorted, and actually devoured
one hundred bard boiled eggs, every four days, for eight weeks !
Poacnixo.—Some weeks ago, a man of the name of Crattris,
Was convicted in the sum of £l5, for having been found on the
lands of Mr. Newton, of Elden, in Suffolk, withthree pheasants
in his pockets, be being a person not qualified to kill game ; and
for non-payment of the penalty, was committed to the county jail
for three mouths. On his arrival at the prison, hewn put into
the receiving ward to be examined, as is the usual mode before
being admitted into the interior of the jail. He was left there
alone nearly half an hour : during the time he amused himself
by drawing three pheasants upon the walls with a piece of char-
coal, and writing under them the following lines:
I ant a Carpenter by trade, I never was encroaching,
I had no work, no money, which made me go a poaching:
Three hen pheasants 1 had got, and homeward was ina'ti::g,
Two fellows stopp'd me on the road, so poor Joe was Liked ;
Then to the justice they did bring me,with him I could not prevail,
For my mittimus he did sign, and sent me off to jail.
The pheasants I should have caught, I have now left for store,
And this summer, if they have luck, they'll breed plenty nu;,c,
And as soon as ever the next season do come in,

If I am alive, and not confined, I shall be ready to begin.
And if that I am taken again, the money I will pay.
For I shall never stand for money, while pheasants look se gay.
