IMPORTANT SPANISH NEWS.

The following article from Madrid would be important if
Ive could rely on its correctness. To convoke the Cortes,
would show in Ferdinand a marvellous advance in his politi-
(•4l education within the last two months : but would the
Cortes again trust him ?
MADRID, SEPT. 13.—We hear a great deal in our political circles
.t a Proclamation, which the King himself is to address to the Spanish
Nation, to advise it not to listen to the perfidious suggestions or some
ambitious individuals, who, under the pretext of patriotism, only de-
ire to disturb the State to overthrow the throne and religion. In this
document his Majesty will remind the people of the constant whites
which he has txpressed for the happiness of the Spanish nation, and
which are announced in his Royal Dear* of May 4, 18141 at the time
~t• his return from his captivity in France ; in his Act of 6th Much,
11;20, the day More be was obliged to take the oath to the Coo-
Nutution of the Cones; and in his Proclamation of 30th Septa's-
bey, 1813, on his leaving Cadia. The King will add, that if be has net
yet given institutions suited to the wants of his people, the delay is not
to be ascribed to his will but to the difficult efrometiekes which have'
mcceeded each other, and which, happily for %win, Iwo ended to the
-,(ivantage of the Throne. In consequence and in order boonrobly to
the epoch of the birth of, as we besoM the rinse of St.
Ferdinand. a circumstance which must give aikatienel unfelt) to the
nonescity, his Majesty, after having oossobei hie Lapse Allies
taken the prudent advice of his Co--—allaw, will etwiewiel
klf with the nation, represented by Deputise who will be unyoked
order to make themselves acquainted with the iestitodeas edible the
`town shall think fit to grant to its subjects.
rhe following circumstance has, probly, hastened this resolution s
It is affirmed that our Sovereign has received a letter from his s
duns, the Queen of the French, conceived in the moat tender and 't
iluaate tams, and in which, while deploring the eauses which have beam
!‘b le fir a moment to disturb the repose of Europe (for our events, Jaye
Ito Majesty, interest the whole world ;) she advises ha niece to use her
tattenee with her husband to induce him to take a prudent resolution,
Intl to grant iastitutiona analagous to the wants and viable of Spain.

This letter must produce:a good effect, and the more so, *sour young
Queen desires to gain more and more the gearts of Spaniards by thus putting
an eud to the misfortunes of those who are proscribed for pobticalopi-
nions. In the Palace, and especially in the apartments of the Duchess
of Beira, a great deal is said of a projected marriage between the Duke
of Nemours and Donna Maria da Gloria, Queen of Portugal : our ab-
solutists expect from this affair the fall of Don Miguel, as this plan in-
terests France, and Austria, which has opposed the recognition of the
Infant as King of Portugal, and supports the legitimate rights of the
Emperor's grand-daughter. Some time back this marriage was spoken
of as well as that of the Emperor of Brazil, Donna Maria's father, with
the eldest daughter of the Duke of Orleans, sister to the Duke de
Nemours. But the intrigues of the Apostolic party interposed, and
Charles 7L refused his consent. As this obstacle no longer exists, there
is now nothing to hinder union, so important to the tranquillity and
happiness of the Peninsula.
Tour.ox, SEPT. 21.—Letters from Alexandria, in Piedmont, say
that the greatest fermentation prevails in all Lombardy, and several
little:villages have given the signal of insurrection. This little rising,
we are assured, was quelled on the arrival of some troops who were sent
to the spot; but all this only preserves apparent tranquillity, and the
slightest pretext will suffice to make such events more general. The
new French Charter, which, contains all possible elements of order and
liberty, will soon become the political compact of all the nations of
Europe.

We have just received by express the whole of the Paris Pares

ment of the Er-Ministers, on the part of the Chamber of Deputies, are
said to be M. Berenger, Madier de Montjau, and Persil.
PARIS, Saes. 29.—Since my last letter the strength of the Ministry,
for some time stationary, has gained a little force, which is merely
apparent, and can be but momentary. For the purpose of increasing
the fears which popular societies in France have excited, and for which
the revolution has been censured as a cruel abuse of their power. M. Gui.
sot has magnified the terry and made use of it ass means to restrain the
ardour ;of those at present impatient of delay. However, under the
fire of which he made such parade in the Chamber, and the
power of which he vaunted, he has succeeded in conciliating
some opponents, He has given up some of his pretensions for
the purpose of disarming Messrs. Bernard and Odillon-t. The
Ministry, however, will disarm no one ; and they will go on for some
days, till new difficulties raise new obstacles to the march of a Cabinet,
whose existence cannot be counted upon unless it becomes more com-
pact. The turn which affairs in Belgium have taken would materially
embarrass the Ministry if they were not already more than sufficiently
occupied by the internal state of the country. The insurrection has
taken a frightful turn. All the peasants are in arms ! The King of
the Low Countries will no longer be able to retain his authority by se-
verities, which only the more alienate his subjects from him. Her union
with Holland was impossible before the attack on Brussels. Since the
massacre of the people by the army under Prince Frederick, the preser-
vation of the dynasty itself becomes even doubtful. Already they speak
of the intervention of Prussia; but, when this shall take place, the
honour and safety of France will not allow her to be an unconcerned spec.
tator. But why speak thus ? At the present moment she is not an uncon-
cerned spectator notwithstanding the circulaspecdon of her Govern.

,elves, and set off for Belgium without any ceremony. Paris is in a
great measure peopled by Belgians who had been Frenchmen for 25
years. Recollections, affection, hijury, and national pride, all com-
bine to make the cause of the Belgians popular in France. Yesterday
a great number of young men from Brussels arrived here for the purpose
of purchasing arms and ammunition. Quantities of these warlike stores
have been already sent off, and others are in preparation. Le Temps,
a Journal whose patriotism equals its dignity and its sense of job-
See, has not hesitated to lead the way in openhig a subscription in
behalf of the patriots engaged in the contest with the Dutch. 7
question is, what course will Government take? This adz aleentlynt

writing, it is probable that there is some movement on the put of the

LZIPSIC., SEPT. 16.—Ifesteeday the proclamation splayed
by which the King made it known, that Prince Frederic had been
named Co-Regent of the kingdom, and that Prince Maximilian, his
father, bad, in favour of his son, renounced his right of succession to
the throne. This news has crated the most agreeable sensation. Prince
Frederick is generally loved foe his tolerance,his affitbility, and his en.
lightened views. Preparations were immediately made for illuminating the.
city. Towards five o'clock in the evening a new publication was posted
up, by which the Commission declared that the police was estab.
listed under the best regulations. The Students were invited to lay
aside their arms, and it was made known to them that they wouldhence.
forth be under the regulation of the police. There was little doubt that
this resolution would cause a fresh breach of tranquillity. The students
quitted the posts where they were on guard, tore down the bills, and re;
paired, to the number of 3 or 400, before the house of the royal cons-
missioners, Messrs. Carlowitz and Meissner ; six of them presented
themselves as Deputies, and made complaints to these gentlemen. The
Commissioners then drew up a new publication, by which they revoked
the former articles, and entreated the students to continue to carry arms.
The city was again tranquilized. The illumination passed off without
the least disturbance. The students patrolled the streets, shouting
Views in honour of the co-Regent and Saxon troops. These demon.
stradons continued till midnight.
Putts, SEPT. 28.—We are assured that the Chamber entertains the
idea of adjourning immediately, in order to afford to a great number of
its members the means of preparing for their re-election. We are assured
that the Commission charged with the duty of prosecuting, before the
Chamber of Peers, the accusation against the Ex-Ministers, will be
composed of Messrs. Berenger, Madier de Montjan, and Persil ; how.'
ever, there is some doubt as to whether the latter gentleman or M. Me-
nem will undertake the duty. The Municipal Guards, of which a part
is not yet in uniform, does du under the galleries of the Petals Royale,
and at the post of Chateau d'&u.
From Le ConstitutionneL—At but we have received, today, the
Brussels Papers, and under the news from the Low Countries may,
be seen the march of events; but, independently of the details which i
the Journals furnish, we have received others, of which the follow.
nag is the continuation :—The Belgic revolution is now general; the
inhabitants of the country are in arms, and march against the Dutch.
At Brussels, the people conducted themselves with heroism. As at
Paris, they bad no Chief, and enthusiasm did all. On the 24th,
the troops, masters of different important points, did not dare to en-
gage in the streets; barricades intercepted the communications;
every one acted en braille s. A Dutch corps, consisting of five or
six hundred men, was surrounded and destroyed. About a hundred
grenadiers took refuge in a large building, and there defended them.
selves bravely. The people set fire to it, and the greater part perished in
the flames ! The Belgic soldiers quitted the Dutch party, and afforded
great succour to their compatriots. The women and children contributed
to the victory; the former had stones for arms, the latter cut the girths
of the hones of the Dutch cavalry. The Dutch troops committed un-
heard.of atrocities. The Liegoia who were at Brussels also fought with
rest intrepidity, and were admirably seconded by the workmen. St.
Poi (Gironde), of which the population is half Catholic, half Protestant,
was some days since in great agitation. The fanatics, forced on by the
Jesuits, were opposed to the hoisting of the tri-coloured flag upon the
steeples. In 1815 a National Guard, formed by M. de la Sallee, re.
caved arms, and still retained them. This part of the population
wished to give the law anew. It prevented the organization of *
Chian Guard, and disquieted the peaceful inhabitants by sedition'
ales of "Viva Charles X.—down with Louis-Philip I l" and by
hoisting the white flag An express having been sent by the
Mayor to the Sub-Prefect, that officer decided that the National
Guards of Libourne should repair to the spot 400 National
Guards were chosen, and a down cartridges given to each. The

Front the Courier Francais.—lt is necessary that the government
should turn its attention to a fact which is generally noised abroad. It
L stated for certain that Charles X. has directed his friends not to give
up their situations and take the oath to Philip I. for the purpose of re-
serving their influence in favour of the Duke of Bordeaux. It is added
that the Charlitts (Carlistes) who have some remorse of con-
science, have demanded a consultation of theologians on the
nature of the oath, and that the =ewer was, that the oath would
bind them only so long ss any act in which they were required to con-
cur should not be in direct opposition to legitimate power. Is it
not true that, after the consultation, the oath was taken by these rune.
tionaries. and that that they will act at the elections in favour of Charles
X ? Is it not true also that a correspondence is organised between the
ex-King and his friends of the interior, and that their avowed object is
to have their Duke of Bordeaux restored to them. If these facts are
true, it behoves the government to put an end to a state of things which
amounts to an organised conspiracy. This morning a patty of anti-
lay of the National Guard proceeded to Vincennes, to receive six
pieces of cannon which have been sent for its use. The Duke of
Orleans was among the number of artillerymen who took part on
this occasion. On their arrival at the village they felt a keen ap-
petite, and several young men wished to stay to breakfast. His
Royal Highness desired to make one of the party, and immediately sat
down to table. The repast was short and frugal. Immediately after-
wards the pieces of cannon were put in motion, and sent on towards
Paris. Ile defiled in good order on the Boulevards, preceded and ac-
companied by a great concourse of persons, who admired the good order
observed by this unexpected body. In this order they proceeded to the
former barracks of theCent-Suisses, Rue Nueve de Luxembourg, a place
appropriated to the exercise of the artillery. When the Prince set out
he was recognised by the spectators standing before the gate ; and
the crowd soon increased to such a degree as to intercept his pro.
great. He was therefore obliged to get into a house, in the street
Du Sebot, to escape from the public acclamations and impatient af.
fection. In the course of an hour afterwards, a carriage came to take
him away.
CARL/HURL SEPT.IG.—The peace of the dty was disturbed on the
night of the 16th .nd 17th. Some young person.had maltreated a num.
ber of Jews, which it was thought the police might have prevented.
The Director of the Police has, in consequence, been dismissed.
