FROM A PRLVATE CORRESPONDENT.
" PA's., OCTOSES 13.

" The French Government are, as it may well be sup.l
posed, much elated at the result of affairs in Spain; and
the return of the Duke d'4ngdnteme to Paris will be,
marked in >ti style that Foince has not seen for ages; and
preparations are making for his triumphal entry, that
will approach almost to the ridiculous. It is said that
the triumphal arch commenced by Bonaparte, near
the Champs Elysees will be put in a state to enable the
Duke and the Troops of the Faith to pass under it with
all due eclat.

" Processions, Te Deunes, and illuminations are now
all the order of the day in Paris. Yesterday (Sunday)
a grand procession took place to the metropolitan church
of Notre Dame.—The weather in Paris has been, and
is still, wet and rainy to a degree—the thermometer of
ileaumur, in general, about 10 degrees."

We subjoin an interesting account of the proceedings
which took place at Cadiz immediately on the eve of
its surrender.

Extract of a Letter from an English Gentleman long
resident in Cadiz, dated Port St. Mary, Oct. 2,1824
61. The confusion and dismay which reigned in Cadiz,
after the bombardment, exceed all description ; until its
commencement, Constitution and resistance were on
every person's tongue; but when the shells fell into the
town, all the efforts of the garrison could not prevent
terror from.overpowering the hearts of the numerous in-
habitants, who, panic-struck, sought a refuge from the
enemy's fury. Sir Robert Wilson, who Commanded the
Ccirtichira, and advanced lines on that side, assisted by
many of our countrymen, joined with the Constitutional
Members of the Cortes, and the Ministers Calatrava end
Yandiola, in the most noble efforts to re-animate the
people, and instil into their minds some of the#own
spirit and fearless cottrage. Tb. Mame gamier Imp•
ported with discipline aid valour the fatigues Ott dan•
gers of the day; but the troops bad suffered moat from
privation and bard ditty" large sums of money hod been
distributed among the rabble; some even of tbe_Cortes
had been corrupted ; others participated in the general
panic; the King made the most solemn assurances of
mediation, and was suffered to embark, ere the Madrid
Volunteers were informed of the event, otherwise it
would have been impossible. I accompanied the retinue
here ; his Majesty was received on the Mole by a con-
course of French, Priests, and populace. A procession
accompanied the Royal Family to their quarters, com-
posed of soldiers, friars, officers, and rabble, armed with
banners, crosses, Virgins, poniards, torches; there was a,
savage jorin their countenances, as they cried Viva el
Rey, viva la Religion, wawa la Nocion, macron lot Ne-
gros.' The respectable part of the French officers fol-
lowed at a distance, and observed the scene with indif-
ference and contempt.

" The next day the Royal Family, with their former
attendants, went to the Cathedral, where, in hymns,'
songs, prayers, mirth, and drunkenness, the crowd ex,
pressed their pleasure at being empowered to gratify
their revengeful spirits. As theyissued from the Church
all the dwellinss of those marked for Constitutional
principles became the :prey Cif those blood-thirsty
Faithful;' the houses of many of our friends were
I •
ransacked and pillaged, and everything which can con-
tribute to freedom, instruction,-er improvement, in,
stantly burnt, or broken to piipts in the streets ; *Midst,
" Mee' atd rejoicinks s some even .of the higher Apr
and Priests encouraged to the commission of theeeckiedl, j
Velaustegui, Orlando, and Padre Camanio, beiniibe
most active.
" The envgrations increase hourly—of 600 National
Volunteers belonging to this city, 428 have already Bed
to the mountains of Niebla and Ronda, to escape
,the
ignominious death which awaits many of their comrades,
who have been imprisoned, and are to be tried by a mili-
tary tribunal as Constitutionals. At Xeres, San Lucar,
Port Royal,and all the neighbouring villages, these vio-
lent measures hare spread consternation, and hundreds
of the best families have abandoned their homes, taken
refuge in the mountains, awl become wanderers, and
almost robbers, to support their existence. The effer.
vescence among the lower'class of people is intense;
authorised to satiate Their passions, they hum alt those
who are compromised as blood hounds on the scent,'
and assassinate them when discovered. The state of
the country is dreadful; it surpasses all description in
anarchy, confusion, and bloodshed, The French do lit.
/lei° prevent these cruelties, but should they depart, uni-
venal depopulation and desolation must ensue, The
Frenels, we understand, have already sent fast-texas
vessels to Tenerife, Cuba, sand South America, to turn.
mon them to surrender to the allied arils, and return to
unlimited obedience to King Ferdinand. What influencf
.these emissaries may have is not known, but I learn

from Soot authority that the United States have anti--
' cipated them In their views at the Havannah, and that
it is believed Englancit will ma allow them to revolu.tionise the Western World.
" General Downie, Colonel Browne, and many other
Officers confined with him, hare waited upon his Ma-
jesty.and the Dike% and have experienced the most flat-
tering reception. The teseral has been promoted to
the rank of Lieutenant-General as a reward fur his ser-

vices and sufferings, and the others have been attended
to in proportion. Sir Wm. A'Court is expected, and I
hear will reeeive the Riband of Charles 111. for his in-
fluence in bringingimbuut the restoration; his friends
praise the diplomatic art he has evinced here and at
N.tples, in which they find great affinity.
44 I fear for the lives of the brave youths of the Ma•
drid Militia; sons of the first families in the kingdom ;
they had abandoned all to save their country ; health,
wealth, honours, luxury, and pleasure had no charms
for them without Liberty..-she is gone, is lost for ever ;
and these young heroes will be sacrificed to the demons
of revenge, by fanatics, on the scaffolds of despotism."

We received to-day a file of Frankfort Papers to the
9th inst. The following are extracts:

CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPTEMBER 10.

The most complete tranquillity prevails here, aad
we hope that the frequent conferences of the European
Ministers with the Reis Effendi will soon lead to an ar-
rangement of all the differences with Russia ; this, at
least, is the general opinion in Pera. The courier dis-
patched to London, on the Bth, by Lord Straniford, is
supposed to have been the bearer of very favourable
accOnnts of the state of the negotiations with England.
People fancy too that those Franks who have any busi-
ness to transact with the Porte, are treated with much
more politeness than they have been for some time past.
