LOAN.

QO THE SpITOR OP THE STAR.
a. it—An article lhasopsteared in The noses of this morning.
from a French Paper, on the subject of this Loan. The
writer of it addresses himself directly to M. ZIA, who is now
staying at Exeter. Whether that Gentleman will consider any
thing contained in this article worthy his notice, it will be Sr
him to determine; but we think it right, for the information of
all parties concerned, to say, and that in the most unqualified
terms, that, as regards matters withi'n our immediate knowledge,
it contains the greatest falsehoods.
We art, Sir, your obedient Servants,

TOIIRIGN MARKET.

The observations in a French Piper concerning the Colom-
bian Loan has caused a great panic in the market this morning.
Colombian Bonds, which were done in the early part of the

morning at 54 ex. div. has fallen to 82, and it Is expected a fur-
ther depression in the above Bonds will take plus. By some
persons it is thought a manceuvre, oh the part of the Colombian
Government, not to ratify the Colombian Loan until England
acknowledges their Republic ; but the above French Paper has
Lad a great effect on the market, and tended to lower most of
the foreign securities.

Madrid Papers to the 25th ult. have been received
by express. Their contents are interesting. The sum
to be raised in loans has been declared by the Govern-
ment to be 40,000,000 reals de rente, answering to a
capital (4.800,000,000 of reals, equivalent, at the pre-
sent price of Spanish securities, to about £5,600,000
sterling. Several agents, appointed by capitalists in
London and Paris, were in Madrid, for the purpose
of making proposals for supplying the Spanish Go-
vernment with that sum, or different portions of it
respectively. Madrid was in a state of perfect tran-
quillity. It had been determined by the Ministry
to bring to immediate trial those Noblemen suspected
of having favoured the insurrection of the Guards on
the 7th of July.

The Constitutional Authorities in Madi id were oc-
cupied in forming an armed force. Two companies
of Infantry, each containing 120 men, and one com-
pany of Cavalry, containing GO men, are to be formed.
These companies are to be called the Cazadores Con-
stitutionales, and no persons who do not possess the
required qualifications, and whet have not received
the special approbation of the Ayuntamiento, will be
admitted into them. This force is to be placed under the
command of the Political Chief, according to the regu-
lations prescribed by the abovementioned Ordinance.
In the Sitting of the Cones, on the 21st ult. the
Report of the Special Committee on the Statiof the
Country was further discussed. A debate of some
length took place on the following Article :
4. Authority is given to the Government, whereby it may
freely remove from one province to another persons enjoying any
salary or penaion from the Treasury, although they may not
actually be in the exercise of any duties; and the said persons
shall not have it in their power to p such removal by any
means, not even by the resignation of their emoluments."

Senor Bu EY observed, that the Committee appeared
-to have gone beyond the wishes of the Government
in the drawing up of this article. The question was
of great interest, singe it involved nothing less than
die repose of families and the personal liberty of ci-
tizens, which might be trampled on in virtue of the
introduction by the Committee of the word freely,
which was, in his opinion, equivalent to despotically.
♦Vith respect to the last clause of the article, he con-
sidered it quite repugnant to the Constitution. If any
person, paid by the State, renounced his emoluments,
tie placed himself in the situation of a private citizen,
who could not he compelled to,change his place of
abode, except by a legal sentence.

Senor ROMERO, confining himself, in the first, place,
to what Senor Buey had said respecting the last part
of the Article, observed that, though a public clrscer
who resigned, generally speaking, might be said to
place himself in the situation of a privatecitizen, yet'
'here the case was different ; for the Cogamittee had
to consider what was to be done with persons who
might resign and renounce their emoluments, in or-
der to frustrate the intentions of the Government.
with regard to the word " freely," be was of opinion
that the power proposed to be given to the Govern-
ment, was, in the present situation of the country, in-
aispensAble. The Alinistell must be responsible for
mer.cise of the power which was given them.
;nor A RGUkLLIIS observed, that the Deputies who
'posed the Committee must permit him to oppose
Article, as one not not altogether conformable
desire by which th Corte were animated,'
