BERLIN, JANUARY 5.

A sudden indisposition of the Prince Chancellor of.
State excited great alarm, which, however, is now
removed, as the danger is past. The public confi-
dence is so intimately connected with the Prince
Chancellor, that the remotest apprehension of a
change has a great effect on people's minds. It is
with justice that the loss of the Chancellor is looked
upon as one that would be irreparable at this mo-
ment, when Europe is on the eve of great events,
and the weight which Prussia has in the political
scale must contribute to the decisive result. The
change which his lately taken place in the Ministry
of a 'great foreign Power, is the more deserving of the
attention of all the other Powers, as the language
held in the address to the Sovereign, which led to
this change, was far from expressing those principles
of peace and moderation, which might well have
been expected to be permanent, after so much melan-
choly experience of the illusions of a false glory.—
In the internal administration, the Prince Chancellor
has hitherto understood the difficult art of introducing
improvements and corrections gradually, without
violent innovations, and as it were arising of them-
selves, as necessary consequences of the wants of
the moment; and he possessed at the same time an
unequalled talent of conciliation, iu uniting the

various interests which, in a State without great Con.
stitational Bodies especially, cross each other in the
higher departments of the Administration.

Charleston Papers have been received this amain
to the 28th December. and letters to theist January,
from which we copy the following:

NEW ORLEANS, DECEMBER S.

We are informed that, since the 30th ()ember, to 44% s,
brigs, 24 schooners, and two doors. making M all 100 se, w
21,700 toes of shipping, have emend this port. There came*
these vessels, as painengen, 5,410 pane's: from time has
some idea may be famed of the rapid increases( the poptgawa.
as well as of the business of the city. These estimates de wit
embrace arrivals by land. or by steamboats from above, wikt
would greatly increase the amount.
Dec. 7.—The accounts of the sugar crops no mery day me.,
unfavourable the lest frost has dose them serious inky. The
export will be less than 8.000 hogsheads, while that of fag Tea
was 43,000.

The accounts from Ireland, though affording so_
cient evidence of the dreadful state of insubordina.
tion and outrage in which several counties are
plunged, are very inexplicit and contradictory. We
' yesterday gave an account of a fatal affray between
the military and a large body of insurgents, near
Macroom, on Thursday last. The Irish FaFers re-
ceived this morning bring little additional informa-
tion that can be relied upon relative to this affair.--
The Dubtio .Correspondent, in a postscript, dated
seven o'clock on Saturday evening, says the number
of the insurgents killed is variously stated, from
twenty-three to forty.
me Cork Advertiser of Saturday, says, the num-
ber of killed could not be ascertained ; but as the re-
bels were placed between the Infantry and Cava:rr,
and at the same time partially flanked by the R
men in ambush, the number who fell must have Leea
very considerable.
It appears also, from the same Paper, which is
very indistinct in its details, that on Friday a body rf
the Whiteboys, who hadsome from Dunmanu ay to
Macroom, assembled on the hills and were at-
tacked by a party of the military commanded by
Colonel MITCHELL, who was accompanied by S:r
N. C. COLTIIVEST and Mr. HEDGES TYNE. It is
added that numbers of the rebels were killed and
wounded, thirty brought prisoners into Macrons,
and two dead bodies.

The Whiteboys are also said to have appeared in
considerable numbers near Kantork. Bandon is ia
dread of a nightly attack from similar bands who
fest the neighbourhood. A manufactory at Nlonard
has been stripped of the lead which covered it, and
so daring are the insurgents that several houses have
been attacked and robbed of guns within two mile:
of the city of Cork.
The Irish Government does not appear inattentive
to the growing state of discontent : a Privy Council
was held at the Castle on Friday, which was nume-
rously attended, when the barony of Fermoy, Ole
county of Cork, the rarish of Garristown, cowry ci
Dublin, and the parishes of Arcarth, Clonalvey,
Piercetown Landy, and Bellewstown-hill, in tie
county of Meath, were proclaimed to be in a st.t:e
of disturbance, and to require an extraordinary ez..t-
, blishment of Police.

Private letters from Spain state, that, on the lath
of January, General RtEcn (unofficially) reviewed the
five battalions of National Militia, at Barcelona, and
addressed them in very strong terms on the pa-
sent situation of Spain :

" We have," said he, " sworn the Constitution or (kith;
let us repeat, death or the Constitution; and firmly rt,olvt,'.
our holy purpose, like Calpe rad Davila, we will mock the .1i
pi cable and pitiful Intrigues of the impotent enemies or our 1:3,+
piness, as immovable promontories despise the frothy billows **
the boisterous seas.

" Our immortal motto is, and will be, " Union," because on
that depends our success. Inhabitants of Barcelona, let this
ways be uppermost in our thoughts and in our desires. Ilene-
forth let us abandon ourselves to it, and to a vigilant confide:Lc
Fierce and desperate Despotism from that moment er;res. I
already see her tearing her ensangnined hair, and ?lunging het-
self into the dark mansions of pain, and of the tricks of her sa-
tellites. from whence she will never emerge—never!

" Never, never ; live union, live unions:live union ; live fr;•e,
Spain ; live the Constitution of 1812; live the religion of our 31.
cestors ; live the Constitutional King; live the Militia, the Fur:
son, and the inhabitants of Barcelona !"

He afterwards read the Royal order for displacing
the tour Ministers ; exhorted to peace, order, and
tranquillity ; and concluded by announcing that, 11
the next Legislature, in which he was going to oc
cupy a seat, great interests in favour of the c.wce t't
liberty would be treated of. The battalions then
defiled amidst great acclamations.
