FROM THE DUTCH PdPERS.

PARIS, FEB. its.
The latest dispatches from Spain, dated Burgos,
the 14th inst. contain the following intelligence :
da Some insurgents commanded by Cuenca (proba-
bly Cuesta, Cuenca is a town) have shewn themselves
on the side of Badajoz. The Duke of Bellune has
• sent a brigade of infantry in pursuit of them, and,
according to the steps which have been taken, it is
believed that some of them will be taken. They are
merely deserters from different regiments, and they
are all ill armed.
ad An officer, with dispatches from Portugal, brings
us intelligence that General Mermet has entered
Oporto, and been welt received by the inhabitants of
that city.
" Madrid continues to enjoy uninterrupted repose.
Last Sunday, the Bing, accompanied by his Aides-
de-Camp and all the Grandees of his Court, walked
in the Prado. The weather was delightful. The
people repaired thither in vast numbers, and made
the air resound with repeated shouts of " Vivat
da It appears certain, that after the surrender of
Saragossa, his Majesty will repair to' Seville. It is
believed that General Gouvion St. Cyr is to take im-
',Mediate possession of Valencia."
Nothing new has been said concerning the state of
our affairs with Austria, It appears that the nego-
ciations which are to determine peace or war still con-
tinue. Hitherto there has been no mention of the
departure of either Minister, which must nevertheless
precede a rupture ; and we have not yet given up the
idea that the matters which have occasioned the dif-
ference may be amicably settled. The time of the
departure of the Emperor, which is naturally consi-
dered as connected with the negociations, appears to
be not yet determined.

! has actively laboured to_sewe the peace and prospe-
rity of its numeron!..suitiects, and especially by fit
establishments to maintain tile external security of the
empire, leave no doubt remaining that.every provi-
sion has been already, or according to circumstances,
will be, carried into effect which the principal airn
and object of the Government can require."
FEB. 17.—The measures adopted forthe security
of the country continue to be carried into execution
with the most unremitting assiduity and zeal. AU
those who are absent on leave have been ordered to
Join their respective regiments forthwith. The officers
who were in this capital have received 'orders to re-
pair to their respective regiments. In the interior of
Austria, various corps are in motion to advance to
the frontiers.—lt is rumoured that the Wrtemberg
Envoy, M. Beroldingen, and the Bavarian, M. Rech-
berg, have left Vienna.
Fan. 18.—No movements of any importance have
hitherto taken place in the Western provinces; but se-
veral convoys of artillery and ammunition are expected
in that quarter. The army having reached that esta-
blishment in point of numbers which the Court had
in view, the organization of the respective corps and
regiments will now be proceeded in. A promotion
has taken place in these corps, and also among the
Cadets. Various officers, who distinguished them.
selves by their activity and courage in the late cam-
paigns, have, by a higher rank, and a more exten-
sive sphere of action, been placed in a situation to
' give new proofs of their abilities on future emergen-
cies. Among the officers alluded to, are Messrs.
Dieueberg, Schuchay, Meszery, and Wolfskehl.—
The army is divided into nine corps, which are to he
commanded by the Archdukes and Generals Lich-
I Rosenberg, Klenau, and Bellegarde. The
Archduke Charles, as Generalissimo, has the chief
command over the whole of this force, and is vested
with more extensive powers than at any former pe-
wriod. Though rumours of approaching hostilities are
still in circulation, we understand that negociations
are carried on with great activity. As far as it is
known with any degree of certainty, it is said that
the first answer of our Court to the propositions of a
foreign Court is in a tone of great moderation. This
answer was transmitted by the Royal Chamberlain,
Count Von Mier, who has returned to this capital
with very important dispatches from our Ambassador
in Paris.
We are extremely anxious to know what has been
done respecting the negotiation which was to take
place at Jassy, between the Russian Government and
the Ottoman Porte, as doubts have been entertained
whether it would be proceeded in, owing to the change
which has actually happened in the political system
of the Porte.
The certain intelligence of the retreat of the Eng-
lish out of Spain, and the defeat of the Insurgents,
had visibly quieted those who were strongly bent
upon war ; yet the report of the peace concluded be-
tween England and. the Sublime Porte has somewhat
roused them again, because they fancy that, should
war break out, the Austrian monarchy will have lit-
tle or nothing to fear from Russia. In the mean
while, great activity prevails in the war department.
Every where, notwithstanding it is winter,- the troops
are exercised after the French fashion. In the arse-
nals the business is carried on with great industry.
Our paper money is sinking very fast, and indeed
is hardly to be sold ; but on the other hand, the trade
with goods is very brisk, because it is feared, that,
should war break out between Russia and Turkey,
the means of procuring Levant productions will be
entirely cut off.

UI.M, FEBRUARY 22.
Within the last week some Bavarian regimens
have marched into the Tyrol ; others, which were in I
Munich, lngolstadt, and Augsburg, are to set out, so I
that there will be 25,000 men in the Tyrol. As soon
as the season admits they are to be encamped. The

quarters will be in Augsburg.
It is reported that 10,000 Bavarians are to march
to the Danube. Twenty thousand troops of Wirtem-
berg and .Baden are to assemble on the frontiers f
Bavaria. In like manner, the 4000 men belonging
to Hessia Darmstadt are to be cantoned on the
Necker ; so that within eight days 65,000 French and
allied troops might be on the Danube, without
reckoning those who are at Bayreuth and the adjoin-
ing towns.
One division of 10,000 Westphalian troops have
passed the Rhine by Mayence, and marched to Metz.
On the contrary, French troops are coming into the
territory of Hanau. At Munich it is reported that
the Marshal Duke of Auerstadt is expected in the
course of next month from Paris.
MILAN, FEBRUARY 8.
On the 27th of January two persons, named Pitti-
zoni and Triser, were executed at Verona. They had
formed no less a project than to overthrow the present
Government, and restore the ancient Republican Go-
vernment at Venice. Of four other persons, against
whom there was not sufficient evidence, two were set
at liberty, and two put under the eye of the police.
sr. PETERSBURGH, FEB. 8.

racter of Plenipotentiary, and Ambassador Extraor-
dinary from the Court of Austria.
CONSTANTINOPLE, JAN. 9.7.
The Grand Scignor has removed the Grand Vizir
Michmik Pacha from all his posts. It is not known
who is to fill this place. It is thought that Isel Ach-
met Pacha will be called to this station ; he filled it
before. Aly Pacha holds it in the interim.
The French Charge d'Affaires, M. de Marburg,
