PARIS, FEBRUARY 20.

Baron d'Ecolles has. set off for Catalonia. General
Quesada set off yesterday.

FEB. 21.—A letter frOm Oleron, of the 12th Fe-
bruary, states, that on the 9th, a body of Spaniards,
who had taken and burnt Irati, bad entered the
French territory, but bad returned before the troops
came up, war not having been yet declared.
The Courier Francais gives an account of this
event; but says, that the Constitutional troops did
not intend to violate the French territory, but passed,
without knowing, along a road comprised within the
French limits.

An extraordinaiy courier, who left Madrid the
night between the 13th and 14th February, arrived
to-flay (20th) at the English Ambassador's, at Paris.
It appears, from the letters and journals which• be
brings, that the Government, independent of the last
levy which it asked of the Cortes, intends another
levy of thirty thousand men. Whatever confidence
the Government may place in the bravery of the
Spanish troops, it depends still more on the unini..l
n►ous and spontaneous enthusiasm of the nation to
repel the attacks which are prepared against it. And, I
in fact, the attitude of the population in the • several
provinces annonnces a firm determination to defend
L the national independence. The recruits joyfully.

A private letter, dated Paris, Thursday night, po-
sitively asserts that the French army will enter Spain
on or before the of March-I;94XX) men by way
of Bayonne, 25,CYJO by Figueras, and two divisions of,
light troops, will march on Seo Urgel.

Madrid Papers also have come to hand up to the
14th, by which we are sorry to see that the finances
of the Government are even in a worse condition
'lran was anticipated. Arrears of taxes, from the im-
possibility of getting money, and from the necessity
of supplying the troop, have been ordered to be
levied
.in kind. The produce of the territorial taxes,
which had been estimated at 50,0(0,000 lea's,
amounted in reality to 8,000,000 reals. The tax on
patents, which should have realised 25,000,000 reals,
had given only 143,000: The House Tax, instead of
being 6,000,000 teals, as reckoned on, had, in fact,
produced' 550,598 reals; and the other taxes had
fallen below expectation in equal proportion.—
This defalcation is principally owing to the disturbed
state of the country, which, never in a high state of
cultivation and never wealthy, has been soon ex-
hausted by the contributions levied by both the fac-
tious and the Constitutionalists. The suspension of
' many branches of industry, from a state of civil war,
has cut short the resources, and a great part of the
national exertion, also has been lately employed, not
in creating, but in destroying
.wealth. France, on
the other hand, though long weighed down by the
contributions of the Allies, has been able, during a
peace of seven years, to increase her commerce, im-
prove her Manufactories, and add to her resources.
Though divided in sentiment, though a large party
is strongly opposed to the war, no factious bands
traverse the land from end to end, pillaging, devas-
tating, and destroying. She begins the contest,
therefore, with many physical advantages; but the
moral advantages—the right, the justice, the general
sentiments of Europe, are all in favour of Spain.—
Whatever fears, therefore, may arise in the friends
of liberty from the present physical preponderance of
the aggressor, may be balanced by the hopes derived
from the moral advantages of the oppressed Spaniards..
England cannot look passively on such a contest.—
Already the Order •in Council, prohibiting for six
months the transportation of arms and ammunition
into Spain, has been revoked. The Foreign Enlist:
meat Hill is likely to be repealed ; and whether our
Government takes part in the quarrel or not, the People ,
of England ale coo jealous of French usurpation, and
too much attached to liberty, not to assist the Spa-
niards with heart and hand. Many Germans also,
who, more than any other Europeans, have assisted
the patriotic Greeks—the Italians,
.who.are banished
from home by the bayonets of the Austrians—the
ardent and the noble-minded youth of all Europe,
yes, even many Frenchmen will repair to Spain ;
which probably will become the field of battle, where
will be finally decided the quarrel between civilize-
tr,n and darkness, between liberty and despotism. '
The Autocrats, Kaisers, and other members of the
Holy Alliance, have only been able to carry on their
projects by drawing funds from England; and to sup-
port the present much more noble cause, we are per-
suaded England will still find means. We are thorough-
ly convinced, that on whichever side the moral prepon-
derance is, there ultimately physical strength st ill
also preponderate; and though it is quite impossible
to foresee by what events it will be brought about,
we have no doabc that:the war, which appears now
inevitable, will end in confusion and ruin to the
BOURBONS and to slavery, and in triumph to Spain
and freedom:

We have, received Lisbon .Papers to. the 14th of
this month, bringing accounts of the proceedings in
the Cortes to the 12th. A proposal had been made
in the Cortes, in consequence of the French King's
Speech; to consider the first French soldier who came
on the south side of the Pyrenees as the enemy of
the institutions and independence of Portugal.; and
various resolutions were moved, having for tbeir.ob-
ject to organize a large force, to unite Portugal.
closely with Spain, to raise money by patriotie.con-,'
tributions from the privileged classes, and to the
expedition destined for Bahia. Great eittlyti.siasm:
seems to prevail in the Cortes. -
_lit was reported at Lisbon, that Sir W. A'Couftt
has declared, if the Cones persist in • removing the
King of SPAIN to Cadiz, he shall be under the
necessity of demanding his passports.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE; FEBRUARY 22.

The ft4lowinz calamitous accident took phice at
•___

our 'Theatre on Wednesday evening :—Shortly :tfter
the commencement of the second act of Tom and
Jerry, one of the gas-lights in the third box from the
Stage, on the right side of the House, by some mis-

chance had set 'fire to the wood work that enclosed
the pipe. The consequence was, an immediate alarm
of .. tire r pervaded the House, particularly the gal-
lery, which was very much crowded. Notwithstand-
ing it was soon apparent to the company in the boxes
and the pit (both which places were but thinly filled),
that there was little or no danger to be apprehended,,
the people in the gallery were not to be tranquillized.
Considerable efforts were made from the Stage, too,
to persuade them, that if they would but patiently
watt a very short.time, they would we everything re-
stored to order. All in vain: a deaf ear was turned
to the judicious advice given to them—and with a
tremendous' rush, they struggled for egress. Dis-
tressing was the result—seven individuals were lite-
rally trodden to death a young woman of the
. name of Johnson, a Mrs. Riddell Robson (the wife
of a respectable builder, who himself escaped with
some very tci lisle bruises ; John Edwards, in the
enip:oy of Johnson and Co. Dean-street; Thomas
Handyside, aged '2O, con •f Mr. Handyside, book-
binder ; John Jonathan Wilkinson, aged 12, son of
Mr. W. Wilkinson, Pilgrim-street; Dorothy Heaton,
aged 16, daughter of G. Heaton, tailor, of Gates-
Lead ; Isabella Parkinson, aged 12, adopted daughter
of Mrs. Green, Pilgi int-street.
Thursday a C6ronees Inquest was held on the bo-

des, by Mr. BELT and Mr. FIFE, the Coroners for
ttis town: Mr. DE CANIP, the Manager, was present,
d horn his evidence it appears that the fire, which
AV:IS of trifling extent, was almost instantly extin-
taisbed ; but that, in their efforts to escape, being
i'anic•struck, the deceased were bruised or suffocated
by the presstue, so as to occasion their deaths.
