MADRID, DECRIbIBER t.

We learn by the English Journals, u-andate I nu;
cessively by those of other countries, that our's is tl e'
theatre of a grand agitation; while there reigns in'
the capital as well as in the provinces, a calm which
nothing is capable of disturbing. The stagnation of
`commerce, the fall of the Royal valis, the extinction
Of the arrear debt, do not excite the least disquietude,
We do not know what can be the object of this alarm-
ing news, for which our settled tranquillity, as well
as the reserve of our Ministry does not give the least
shadow of a pretext.

They must have a poor idea of the state of things
and opinions who suppose that in Spain there is the
slightest disposition to insurrectional movements
for any political object. Some madmen, such as
Mina, Porlier, Lacy, Richard, have so far miscon-
ceived matters, is to dare an attempt on the Govern.'
meat ; but they have been betrayed by the very per-
sons on whose support they thought they might rely.
:Soppose again, an Administrator of Finances has
wished to hazard some reforms or innovations, his
fall has been a timely warning to his successors;
nor has the exile of two Ministers involved along
with M. de Garay, been attended with any regrets.
Let us be viewed then only as we are. It is singular
'that in England such false reports should be accre-
Ldited with most facility, while there is no Power in
Europe which knows better the physical and moral
condition of Spain and Portugal.

‘Ve look on our affair of the Floridas as terminated.
he United States have very active agents here, who
urge the conclusion of the transaction.

Things are still much in the same state at Cadiz.
• DECEMBER 17.—The details contained in the Offi-
cial Reports of the Military Operations in Mexico,
which are dated in the month of June, may have
occasioned some inquietude as to the character which
the insurrection there had assumed; but since that
period tranquillity has been almost entirely re-estab-
lished in the Viceroyalty. From one of the Re-
ports made by Colonel Linares, Commandant of the
Province of Guanaxuato, we observe, that Father
Torres had collected above 1,406 men, and had
with that force attacked Colonel Bustamente, who,
nevertheless, succeeded in putting the rebels to flight,
and cutting off more than 200 of their men. The
same dispatches acquaint us, that in the Province of
Temascaltepee the inhabitants repair in crowds to the
Spanish Authorities, demanding the benefit of the

amnesty.T—A lithor of the Commandant of
Sea Coast, dated 31st May, confirms the
taking of Zacatula, situated on that coast—,

A new• notice of the Commissioner of
Debt invites the holders of Royal valet I

of their .amount, conformably to Decree
that subject.
