GENERAL RIEGO.

Amcing the charges brought agnst this patriot are
those of cruelty and rapacity at Malaga; and as it would
have been h.izardous to assert the ill-treatment of Bri-
tish commercial residents, without supplying and
particulars, the pretended mercantile so were
transformed into Americans, with what justice we leave
the following-curate from the ACV York Evening Pod
of the 31st of October to decide:

Hipitty IMPORTANT FROM SPAIN.
The arrival at Boston of the brig Prudent, Ellis, in
37 days from Malaga, brings the following note from
Mr. Darrell, United States Consul at Malaga : •
News has just reached us, that Riego, after giving
the French a complete beating in the streets of Jaen,
leaving 700 of them dead, besides wounded, proceeded
on his march, and was in a place called La Carolina,
rapidly marching towards Madrid, and was is expecta-
tion of joining with Martin, the Empecinado, and but
little doubt remains that be is at this moment within a
few • leagues of Madrid. The Authorities of this place
spread a report a few days since, that be was captured;
but it was merely to deceive the ignorant, and keep alive
the• hopes of the Serf des, more properly called the • Ban-
d tti'of Spain:
The conduct of Riego while in this place has been
reported in the Wordier Citroaide in a base and
shameful light.—false in eves y respect, aad a tissue of
lies. He acted like a gallant soldier and a firm un-
shaften patriot; and among all the Generals in Spain
he has proved himself capable of acting for his unfor-
tunate country in the true style of the old Romans.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.
PARIS, NOV. ss.

It is now certain that Ferdinand neither intends to
publish an amnesty, to convoke the ancient Cortes of
the kingdom, nor to give anything irk-allw shape of a
new Representative Government. AS that can be ob-
tained from the Xing, is the appointment of something
like a Council of State, nominated by himself, and re-
movable at his pleasure. The organization of this Coun-
cil, the cases in which iu functions will be exercised,
and the nomination of the members of which it will be
composed, will be detailed in the Madrid Gaßtte in the
course of a few days. The influence of San, instead
of being diminished, has rather been incremedly the
endeavours node to shake it.: •
Thep/skeet' Anioulerne is still expected to make his
entry into Paris on the 2J of December. He has
tee to the Duchess, his wife, requesting her in vtry
earnest terms to beg the King's permission to enter to f
private manner ; but his Majesty is obstinate on the
point. He must have a processiots—be must chew in
Paris that his arms have conquered Spain.

project of laW relative to the, Stamp Duties, Le.
goer Duties, and several others, presented to the Second
Chamber, are accompanied by an explanation of the
motives on which they are founded, in which there is
the following passage:
" The reproduction of a project on foreign Loans,
and the duty to.whiab the interest of these Loans may
be subjected, is a consequence of this law.
" It would be useless to enter into lutig arguments
to justify a measure which tends to snake the funilhol der
contribute to the wants of the State, in proportion to his
ability, 10 spew the difference that exists in this respect
'between the landholder and him. The first is obliged
innvally to pay a tax imposed on his property, and
he wishes to dispose of it. he must submit to lose four
per cent. of his capital : the second, who has no concern
with the benefits which agriculture diffuses among the
middle classes, 'derives from his funds an advantage
which is often more considerable, but which eludes the
application.of ths 6rOcial laws.
" It is equitikaitbat every citizen should contribute
to meet the expenses required by the political economy
of the country which he inhabits, that the condition of
one be not worse than of anotber ; in short, that he who
has placed his property in foreign countries, be not
exempt from the bidders imposed on the majority of
his fellow.eitiZens." ;

Count of Limburittirum. His Royal Highness is ex-
pected to be absent about two months.

Gibraltar Chronicles have been received to the 7th
instant: They are entirely barren of any intelligence of
a general nature. By private letters from the same place,
we learn that the number of refugees, notwithswnding
the departure of many for the United States and Eng-
land, was still great. Commerce remained in a state of
great depression at Gibraltar, the unsettled state of
Spain causing 'a great stagnation of business there.—
;The arrivals of wheat, flour, and provisions, from all
parts, had been very numerous, and in consequence
sales were effected
...with difficulty and at considerable
lois. Many of the cargoes of salt provisions had been
re-shipped for England.
