PARIS, FEBRUARY 2.

It is said that many English families, alarmed,
doubtless, by the certainty of the policy which their
Government may follow in the present circumstances,
are preparing to leave Paris, to return to their own
country or to proceed to the Netherlands.
An extraordinary courier, who left Madrid on the
21st, stated, on passing through Bayonne, that Bes-
sieres, one of the Insurgent Chiefs, who advanced
with his troop to Guadalaxara, within fifteen leagues
of Madrid, had been completely beaten by the Con-
stitutionalists, who,tnok 400 prisoners. We do not yet
know the number of the killed.--Journal de Path
The Moniteur of yeSterday contains the following
statement:—" On the 21st, of January, the anniver-
sary of the death of Louis XVI. all the vessels in the
port of Marseilles struck their yards. and hois.ed
their flags half ma•t high. One .only refused to do
this. It was the Spanish ship called " the Constitu-
tion or Death." The Poople, offended at such con-
duct, began to assemble on the quays, and loudly
manifested an indignation, the consequences of which
might have been serious had not the Spanish Consul,
and the Captain of the port, gone on board the Spa-
nish
ship and forced the Captain to ► oist the signal of
mourning conformable to the order of the Mayor. It
is added that he y:elded very unwillingly."
The following is the result of the trial at Orleans :
Baudrillet is unanimously found guilty of participa-
tion in the plot for taking the Castle of Saumur.
Lalande, by a majority, not guilty of the fact, but
guilty of misprision. Duret unanimously guilty of
recruiting against the lawful authority.
The Court condemned Baudrillet and Duret to be
executed ; and Lalande to three years' imprisonment.
It has been rumoured, that a division of the nein,:
Army, united to a corps of the Spanish Royalists,
has proceeded onward to compel Mina to raise the
siege of Seo. We think this intelligence prema-
ture.—L'Etoik. _ _ • __

M. de Lauriston will, it is said, command the divi-
sion of the Western Pyrenees.

The second Regiment of the Cuirassiers of the
Guard, which at eight o'clock on Thursday evening,
had received marching orders, received counter-
orders the same evening at eleven o'clock.
It is asserted, that the gendarmerie has arrested
and conducted to the prison at Toulouse, an indivi-
dual, who is accused of having wished to enrol va-
rious soldiers in our army under the flag of the Con-
stitutional Spaniards, by shewing them a letter from
Mina. We may imagine how such proposals have
been received by the faithful servants of the King.—
;This person will be tried by the Second Council of War.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.
44 MADRID, JANUAR? IS.

14 If the preservation of the Spanish Constitution
depended merely on the enthusiasm of the people of,
this Capital, it would.be invincible. At present, I
believe, there are very few men in. the Cortes, or
among the populace—for they go hand in hand, who
have not fully made up their minds either to fall iii
defence of liberty, or to decorate it with fresh tro-
phies. Every night the streets • are animated with
patriotic music, partial illuminations are farmed, and
private Meetings are held, to celebrate the vigolous.
attitude ,shich the Government have taken with re-
spect to the Foreign Powers who are inimical to the
existing system ; but with a with a great portion of
the people in the Provinces peace is eagerly wisher:J."l

In a preceding column we have given copious ex-
tracts from the French Papers of Saturday, and sub-
join private letters written that evening. It would
seem that the Spanish rebels, relying on the assist-
ance of France, have become more daring, and that
a body of them made an attempt to surprise Madrid
and seize the person of FERDINAND, when of course,
the Inquisition and all the old tyranny would be im-
mediately restored. The Insurgents were, however,
repulsed by the Constitutional troops.
The Chamber of Depu:ies opened with a stormy
but uninteresting debate on the subject of the Elec.
tions. The military preparations appear to be going
on with rathei increased artivity.

PRIVATE COIRESPONIANCE.
“ Fia. 1, Foot oTtocx,
" A commercial courier has arrived about an hour agb from
Madrid, who left that city nn the 96tbtalt. at midnight. M. de
Lagarde had not then left the Spanish capital, but it was under-
stood that hp had demainled pii.passpojts, awl was to setvut on
the following day. It is tine that a band of the factious had
descended from the Gaidalarara mountains, and had approached
Madrid, but had been repulsed. -
" The reports ottumultuary disturbances, of a renewal of the
scenes of the 7th of July, and of an attack on the Royal Palace
and the person of the King, which were spread in Paris yester-
day, on the authority of letters of an anterior date, appear to
be destitute of foundation. Nothing is said to countenance them
in the letters from Madrid of the 26th.
" This courier has brought tut newspapers. He set out with
a series of them, but be was met by the facttons on the frontiers,
and deprived of everything but a sealed packet of private letters."

0 nn &a.m.' r. M. ,

" Since writing my former note, I have seen the letters froM
Madrid of the 26th. The rumours that were spread in Paris, of
the advance of a formidable body of the factious tontrds Madrid,
were not without foundation. On the 20th ult. a movement was
observed in the garrison, and bodies of troops were seen marching
away towards the north. The factious bands in Guadalaxara had
been too much neglected, and therefore increased with impunity :
they had increased nearly to 5000 men, and menaced the peace
of the capital. A good deal of movement and anxiety prevailed
in the public mind on account of the marching of the garrison.
A party of the national militia accompanied the troops of the
line. They proceeded with all expedition towards the rebels, and
attacked them on the 24th in two columns. The column of
regular troops gave way ; the militia advanced with boldness,
and entirely dispersed the enemy.
" The Papers of the 26th aft said to be full of details, but
u.tbappily private letters, referring only to these public accounts,

do trot describe sufficiently the whole of the circumstances. Ma-
drid, it is said in a letter of ten o'clock„r. N. on the 26th, never
'hewed a more calm and determined attitude."

Hamburgh Papers to the qd instant, and Dutch'
Papers to the 29th ult. reached us this forenoon. An
article from the frontiers of Moldavia, dated the 4th
of January, states, that the fugitive Boyars have just
received orders from the Austrian Government to de-
part from the Austrian hereditary dominions within
eight days. Their consternation at this order is not
to be described. Most of them are men in years, and
in ill health, hardly able to travel in this season of
the year. It is supposed that a similar order will be
issued iti Russia, and that they will no longer find
an asylum there. They cannot go back to Moldavia
and Wallachia, for it seems hardly doubtful that, if
they were to venture, the Seraskier of Silistria, who
commands in the Principalities, will demand their
heads, and send them to Constantinople. This order
has doubtless been given because they will not submit
to the new order of things, and consider the Hospo-
dar as no more than a prisoner to the Seraskier.

It would appear, by an article from Stockholm,
that CARL JOHN BERNADOTTE iS afraid of improper
persons entering Sweden, and, in order to prove him-
self a true legitimate and worthy of associating with
tht Holy Allies, he has given strict orders for en-
forcing a !loyal Ordonnance respecting,foreign tra-
vellers; and directions are given to all the Governors
of the Provinces to take the greatest care that no
foreigner, with the exception of the English, Hano-
verian, French, American, and Prussian couriers and
subjects, shall come into the Kingdom without halting
