The Deputation was well received by his Majesty,
who charged them to assure the Congress that he
was still the same, adding, that he hoped the Consti-
tution of Spain would have a more durable existence
than that of Naples.
A private letter from Bayonne, of the 14th, adds
to these authentic accounts, that, in the Secret Com-
mittee of the Cortes, it had been proposed, in order
to prevent the shame of invasion, to make such modi-
fication., in the Constitution as the Holy Alliance de-
mand, but that that proposition had been rejected
by a small majority.
La article from Naples, of the 4th of April, esti-
mates the extraordinary expenses which the Revolu-
tionary Government had caused the country, during
the preceding eighteen days, at twenty-five millions;
adding to which, the contributions and subsistence
for the Austrian army, the national finances may be
regarded as impoverished to the extent of forty mil.
lions. The Provisional Government is in great dis-
tress; all the public chests are empty, and the notes
et the Bank without credit. A duty of fifteen sous
per Paper has beer. imposed on all foreign Journals,
which is nearly equivalent to a total prohibition.

Cardinal Babrizio Ruffo has left Rome for Na-
ples. He is said to have been named President of
the Provisional Government, in conjunction with the
Marquis de Circello.
King Ferdinand has not, it seems, yet left Flo-
rence, and proposes to prolong his stay there for
some time.

Accounts from Trieste, of the 7th April, •tate that
Sicily was still unreduced, and that the Austrian Con-
sul at Messina had been forced to take down the Im-
perial arms from his house.

At Leghorn a report prevailed, on the 7th instant,
that the Greek inhabitants of the Isle of Candia had
rendered themselves masters of it, by seizing on all
the snotty, places of the island.

date of January gO, which state that- the squadron
under Sir C. ROWLEY were tolerably healthy. A
letter of this date says:—" The TAMAR, Captain G.
PECHELL, is arrived here, after five weeks passage,
from Halifax, via Havannah, where she got very little
freight. She is now going forthwith to Port-au-
Prince (St. Domingo), to communicate with the Pre-
sident 13ovEn, and to demand the restoration of the
British brig Nymph, which had been captured by al
pirate, and thought to have been taken into some of
the ports of Hayti. With respect to the new order
of things in St. Domingo, no person here has, as yet,
any knowledge; the TA mat tt's visit will therefore give
much interesting matter to this colony."
