MADRID AUGUST 16.

A Spanish brigantine, El Soberano, has arrived at
Malaga, in :36 days from the flavannah. Those on
board say, that before they sailed a schooner had ar-
rived from Vera Cruz with dispatches to the Govern-
ment, stating that Vera Cruz and Mexico were be-
sieged by the Insurgents, and that the crews of as
the vessels in the port had been taken to rnan the
batteries ; and that it was absoltr.ely necesat y that
speedy aid should be sent from the Havaanah, the
distress being extreme. The same persons tote, that
it was found impossible at the I lavannah to give the
aid desired, though the Government took every means:
Ditty-three soldiers and two or three Officers came
passengers in the brigantine, whose time t.f service
was finished, and who ref.rx to enlist again, though
very large offers were made t!:em.
These accounts being less favourable than tho e
brought by the Graciosa, which sailed within a few
hours of the same time as the Suberano, makes it dif-
ficult to reconcile t'.l(: two accounts. We hope Mexico
is not besieged, as we have letters freini that place of
the sOth, liter by at day than thut.e by the Gracio-a.

STOCK EXCHANGE., ONE O'CLOCK.
Letters from Odessa, received this morning, of the
7th August, state, that the last news from Constan-
tinople are of a pacific nature, and there was no ap-
prehensions of war; and letters from St. Petersburgh,
'received at Odessa, state that the latter would cease
to be a free port, but goods would be allowed to be
bonded in warehouse.

Stocks have risen 1h per Cent. since the above was
known. It is a holiday at the Bank, but the Stock
Exchange is open.

On Saturday night, there was a surplus in this Quar-
ter's Revenue of £250,000. more than the corres-
ponding Quarter of last year.

We have received since our last the Paris Papers of
Thursday and Friday ; but they furnish us with no-
thing new in addition to the information from Con-
stantinople, contained in the Papers of Wednesday,
received on Saturday. They state, however, that at
a late review of Russian artillery, in the neighbour-
hood of Warsaw, at which the Grand Duke Cox.
STANTINE assisted, the odious Crescent was set up as
a target, and other Turkish devices were presented
to view, in destroying which with red-hot balls, the
Russian artillerymen signalized at once their zeal
and skill. It would be unfair, however, to consider
this puerile act as an indication of the policy of the
Russian Government. It was in all probability a
suggestion of the Grand Duke—a violent Prince,
exactly resembling in mind, as well as in person,
she Emperor PAUL ; and who, should he ever ascend
the Russian Throne, would induce the Russians to
bewail, with unfeigned sorrow, the loss of the present
EMPEROR. _ _

Recent arrivals of Lisbon Papers throw a different
light upon the revolution of the sth of June at Rio
de Janeiro, from that in which it had been originally
.represented. So far from the change which dis-
placed the PRINCE REGENT from the power intrusted
to him by the Kt ):a being the work of a mutinous sol-
diery, it was the unanimous act of the respectable po-
pulation, and is described not merely as glorious in
its result, but as indispensable, from the existence of '
an odious conspiracy, at the held of which was the
Conde dos ARCOS, who had been appointed Prime
Minister to the Prince. That Minister has arrived at
Lisbon i prisoner, and hasbeen r:rdered by the Cortes
to be confined in the Castle of Belem. The Junta
of Bahia have refused to act in subordination to that
of Rio de Janeiro, and their refusal has been sanc-
tioned by the Portuguese Cortes, from motives of ob-
. sious policy.

New York Papers of the (27th July, and Boston
of the 29th, have arrived this forenoon. The follow-
