DUTCH MAILS.

Two Dutch Mails have arrived this mcrning. The
following is the only article of intelligence of any
interest. It reports an insurrection to have broken
out at Madrid, headed by some of the Members of the
ex-Cortes, and to have been only quelled after a hard
fighting of three hours. N 'body who has attended
to the state of affairs in Spain since the restoration of
FERDINAND, can be at all surprized should it at last
have led to some popular commotion ; but for the
present we are not inclined to place much reliance en
the authenticity of this Dutch rumour—Amsterdam
is not exactly the most direct or expeditious channel
for news from Madrid; nor is the date of the pre-
tended insurrection (the 17th of January), so very
recent that it should not have been officially known
in London before now, bad any such occurrence
actually taken place.

MADRID, JANUARY 24.
!TRACT FROM A PAIVATI mans.

This City has been thrown into elm m by a to_
mult which for some moments endangered the exist-
ence of our Goverment. This tumult seems to have
beeo excited or undertaken by the Heads of the
Cortes.

.‘ The following is what took place on the evening
of the 17th of this month :--Some squares and streets
were thronged with a tumultuous crowd of people,
whose crier. announced terrible events. The Autho-
rities and the armed force were active. In the night
of the 17th a most furious contest ensued, the result
41* which, after a battle of above three hours, termi-
nated in favour of the Government. Numerous
arrests succeeded to this bloody scene, and tranquil-
lity was not entirely re-established till the 20th." •
The following are other Extracts :
BRUSSELS, FEBRUARY 8.

Notwiskistanding the great endeavours of the
French Government to supply the Northern Depart-
ments with corn, and the great sacrifices made by
different cities, as for maple Lille, which has given
600,000 francs for this purpose, it seems that the dif-
ficulty is not yet lessened. It has already occasioned
scenes of tumult in some places, so that particularly
in French Flanders, on the sea side the armed force
has been obliged to interfere.
The corn for the right song of the Army of Oc-
cupation c does entirely from the interior of France.
The Government fulfils its engagements pith all
possible punctuality. It is hoped that the diminu-
tion of the Allied Army, and above all, the goad
will of the inhabitants of French Flanders and Ar-
tois will diminish the evil.
BRUSSELS, FEBRUARY 12.
Corn continues to be imported into the harbours
of Havre, Calais, and Dunkirk ; part of which is
sent to Paris, and the rest to Arras, Lille, or Cam-
bray. The number of British troops returning is
said to be 7000.

The Duke of Wellington. it seems, will not return
till the various arrangements with the French Go-
vernment, respecting the Amy of Occupation, are
completed.

Yesterday the PRINCE REGENT held a—Court at
Carlton House.- At two o'clock the VICE-CHANCEL-
LOR and the Delegates from the University -ot C int-
bridge arrived in grand procession. The liaises
REGENT being seated on his Throne, the CHANCEL..
boa, and the other Members of the University, were
introduced into the Royal presence by the LORD
CHAMBERLAIN and the Gentlemen-Ushers in waiting ;
whenthe Address was read by the Royal CHANCELLOR,
and a gracious answer was returned by the REGENT.
